Have You Seen the Sears Tower... or is it Willis Now?
Let's talk about that big ol' skyscraper in Chicago. You know the one. The one that used to be called the Sears Tower but is now, inexplicably, the Willis Tower. I mean, who came up with that? Did they have a brainstorming session like, "Alright team, we need a new name for the Sears Tower. How about something... less iconic?"
I'm kidding, of course. It's still the Sears Tower in my heart. And let's be honest, even if you call it Willis, we all know what you're talking about. It's like calling a Coke a cola. It's just wrong.
Reminder: Short breaks can improve focus.

| Have You Seen The Sears Tower In Chicago |
A Sky-High Stunner
But let's get serious for a sec. This building is a marvel of engineering. It's taller than most of my life goals. And that view from the top? Forget about it. You're basically looking down on the clouds. It's like being a real-life bird, but without the whole flying and eating worms thing.
Tip: Read actively — ask yourself questions as you go.
I remember the first time I saw it. I was like, "Whoa, is that a building or a giant Jenga tower?" And then I realized it was holding up half the city's weight. Respect.
Tip: Slow down at important lists or bullet points.
The Skydeck: Where Dreams (and Wind) Come True
You simply must visit the Skydeck. It's like a rollercoaster, but without the safety harnesses. You get to step out onto a glass box that hangs out over the city. It's basically a free therapy session for those afraid of heights.

Just kidding (kind of). It's actually really cool. You feel like a superhero. Or at least a very brave person.
So, Should You Go?
If you're ever in Chicago, and you're not afraid of heights or crowds, then yes, absolutely go to the Willis Tower. It's a must-see. Just don't blame me if you end up needing therapy afterwards.
Pro tip: Go at sunset. The views are out of this world. Literally.
How To...
- How to survive the elevator: It’s fast. Really fast. Just breathe and enjoy the ride.
- How to conquer your fear of heights: Baby steps. Start with a low-rise building. Maybe a two-story house?
- How to take the perfect Skydeck selfie: Find a good angle, hold your phone steady, and pray there's no one photobombing you.
- How to impress your friends: Tell them about the time you almost fell off the Skydeck (just kidding, don’t do that).
- How to remember it’s called Willis Tower: Repeat after me: "Willis Tower, Willis Tower, Willis Tower..."
