Narrative:
About 1/2 way into flight from lax-ord, there was light to moderate chop. Having finished service I was sitting on the forward jump seat with another flight attendant. Suddenly (without warning) the plane jolted 4 or 5 times. I was not hurt due to the fact I was sitting, and did not realize how bad it was in the back of the plane. No passenger were hurt, they were all fastened in. The remainder of the flight there was moderate turbulence. We landed without further problems.
