Thanksgiving'10, finally I went back to Chicago, and Champaign, where I started my journey in US. Even though I got stomach flu for the last 1.5 days, it's really a blessing to be able to go back to the school to recap what I've been through, the grace I've been given, and gained the courage to walk forward.
Thanks for Will & Sophia's host, and Grace's coordination, so that we could make such a thankful trip.

11.26 我穿上了兩年多來不曾穿過的高領毛衣加長外套, 回到了兩年多不見的Chicago
站在記憶中的CTA候車台上, 吸到冷空氣的感覺很興奮
I'm not in CA anymore, I'm in Chicago now...
And this was Chi-en's 1st. time to Midwest
Surprise surprise! It's Cindy~~
Yeah, right, we happened to meet in Chicago..lol
Waiting in line in Sears Tower
Now called Willis Tower, and it took about an hour waiting for the Sky Deck
很喜歡Sky Deck的圖騰設計
光電梯就要坐60秒喔...
The glass balconies of the Sky Deck
An all-glass boxes extended from the 103rd floor
實話是, 踩上去的那一霎那, 會遲疑一下...
這就是拍攝者不夠高的結果, 就算對方蹲下來我也照不到透明的玻璃地板啊...殘念|||
看角度,就知道這張不是我掌鏡...Orz
Love this photo --- How lucky we were to found a professional to turn my point-and-shot N1 into a DSLR
There's tons of Chicago's prides display at the Sky Deck
看到這張圖我就很想再看一次"Wicked" --- 和某人一起去看>///<
Someone found his love
and basically I knew almost none of them....=P
Lunch at XOCO --- Rick Bayless' restaurant!!
So lovely, love the interior design ~~~>///<
Cool open kitchen area
Lovely display
忙了一早上在趕case的Grace
和這次的host, 氣質美女Sophia~~~
奇怪, 平平都是MBA, 明明只差了一屆, 為什麼我怎樣都沒有那種high power fu...= =
btw, 我超愛Rick Bayless, the champion of the season 1 Top Chef Master~~>///<
我的仰慕之情溢於言表>///<
Since it's Rick Bayless, it's definitely Mexican food, Mexican street food
Bean-To-Cup Chocolate, frothy Mexican hot chocolate
tortas, Mexican submarine sandwiches
Mine was Woodland Mushroom tortas
HOT Ahogada tortas --- 對現在的我而言顯然太辣了, 一吃完就胃痛....Orz|||
Chicago museums of art --- 因為時間不足, 所以只照了建築物...Orz
Art Museum隔壁很讚的藝品店>///<
Millenium park fountain --- 人的臉部表情會一直變喔, 也會換不同人的臉喔~~~
然後夏天時會有水柱從人像的嘴巴出吐出
Millenium park bean
這是千禧公園中最著名的那顆蛋, 喔不, 是bean=w=
看起來真的很像小朋友...
其實我一直很希望自己可以看起來有成熟修長淑女風.....T^T
Under the bean
其實我們一直很佩服後面那位新娘
竟然能夠在零下的情況下穿無肩帶禮服一直照相....強
The bean is painted with Chicago
三個自high的人
笨
笨笨
非常笨...Orz
Chicago river
如果是夏天, 坐渡輪遊河是相當不錯的一個體驗
但冬天, 我想我們還是用看的就好了
Walking on the Michigan Avenue --- 一直走就忘了照像了><
Giordano deep dish pizza --- See, this is called "thick pizza"
懷著感恩的心享用要排隊1 hour and 45 mins的pizza
Not show in the photos, yet we went to Green Mill for Jazz performance after the meal
11.27 Back to Champaign, lunch with friends at 前東海漁村, 現漁滿樓=)
呼...從來沒想過可以再度見到Alma Mater
這個雕像其實很有意義, 同時有傳承以及UI所標榜的Learning & Labor
不過照片裡三個人有兩個在胃痛, 而這次的相片也由於小女子胃痛加上後來stomach flu, 很倉卒的在這邊結束,
希望能夠再回來Chicago & UIUC, where I started my journey in US
