Architectual Heaven and networking

Buildings in all different shapes, formats, heights, lengths and styles blended my eyes with their beauty and uniqueness in Chicago. I was very impressed and want to go back for more. But the buildings wasn't the reason I went to Chicago, they were only a big bonus. I went there to attend Graph Expo 2010. The expo was a great experience. I managed to get in contact with a lot of people in the industry and also create an interest about my thesis. I am planning to move back to Scandinavia when I am done here in Rochester, and therefore it is extra important for me to create a good network here in the States so my research can get published here as well.

Speaking about my research, or thesis if you want, I am making a lot of progress. My Thesis Proposal defense will be on November 4th and I can't wait. Right now I am busy editing my thesis proposal, and by Monday it will be ready for distribution to my committee.  A part from thesis I am working for Dr. Cummings as a research assistant and designer. Today, I am also attending the OPL general meeting and hopefully I will be able to help them with some design work this year as well.

The summer is moving away here in Rochester and Mr. Autumn are definitely back, but that's not negative, because with Mr. Autumn comes Halloween and soon Thanksgiving and along with Halloween comes Haunted Hay Ride's, Corn Maze's and Costume Parties! I will give you an update on the events by the end of this month.

For now, enjoy my images from Chicago!
