EBOOK - THE DISSERTATION

I came upon the word dissertation only upon taking my graduation thesis.  The faculty especially the dean required the use of a book by Robert Hershberger (The Architectural Methods of Research).  Though the architecture department gave us this sort of Architectural Thesis guidelines handouts, still this book by Hershberger serves to be crucial for the methods of research for the contents of the dissertation.  And so anyone who decided to just settle for the handouts as a thesis guide ended up confused and thus is led to try to read and pore on through the thick Hershberger book.

THESIS DECEASED

No, I can't finish it.  I'm still designing it. This dissertation is a not. But if the book is done, then it should be present.  The designs. Designs were unacceptable. Still can't present it.  To myself. The printed copy of about a hundred pages were thrown. Gone along with the adviser's and chair's signatures. The garbage must have wanted it more than anyone.

THESIS DISEASE

I have this dissertation that I would not and  could not finish.  At this point I am still at a halt.  For I can't seem to finish it.  But then all along this may have been for the good.  There's the Town Hall, The Fire Station, The Ambulance Station, and the Police Station to design.  For now, I am content of having to just research and read about these kinds of buildings.  Having the internet now, gives me endless sources of information and references. Sometimes it gets too overwhelming, that I could not produce my own original designs.  The preliminary designs I made do not get to reach the finishing stages.  I maybe in denial thinking that I could finish planning these kinds of buildings. Having to think that I could do it may be the issue.  Maybe it is time to accept that planning and drafting is not for everyone.  And is definitely not for everyone.  It just is not the time right now.  When it is.
