you must be wondering why i’m not updating, i dont have a lot of free time during the day. so i move all my youtube viewing activities at night. now, leaves no time to update because it pushes my updating time into the A.M. and like I said i have stuff to do during the day now which means i can’t sleep late, hence i haven’t been updating.

then you ask, why don’t you not view youtube videos and update your site?

um, i think that’s physically impossible

but enjoy this <3

i came across this a while back, btw this blog is really cool, Holiday Matinee, check it out. I’m still not really sure what they do other than put out a pretty cool book…

anyways…!

i think i need a full size print of this in my house somewhere, probably best right next to the door, so i can look at it then flip off the world, yeah, that sounds like a great plan. i’m gonna file this under art, although it really doesn’t belong in any category. what a rebel.

just enjoy this, i won’t bother you with my childhood stories of how uncool i was, and how i really wanted to be cool. i dont think there’s enough gee bees on this server for those stories.

(gee bees: for references please see this video)

there have been a LOT of Oxford inspired shoes for boys and girls. I’ve looked upon them with disdain, well most of them, these Vans are amazing. And the following by design power houses are going to remain a classic for long time to come. (that was a way awkward sentence, sorry, bare with me)

Dr. Martens X COMME des GARCONS

what can i say? it’s CdG, instant classic, and yet, you are as fashion as fashion can be

I’m not super busy, sorry for not posting daily, my computer is quite old so i have a hard time loading so many applications like photoshop CS, hence the laziness, partially the computer’s fault!

i’m quite depressed lately as i wasn’t able to buy the nexus one before it was sold out. right now im waiting for a reply on craigslist. i am going to say that maybe this is not meant to be. i’ve been eyeing the HTC HD2 too but im not sure if it’s the device for me although i really like the UI.

ahh sorry, i went off topic

And here’s our HOW TO post…with this as the feature

HOW TO MAKE A DAFT PUNK HELMET

How to wear a uniform (by the Sartorialist): this is not necessarily a HOW TO post, but I thought it was incredibly interesting. I work for a retail space, and I am allowed to wear whatever I want, and by whatever I want means within in their comfort zone, so really i am not comfortable at all. I really enjoy it when Corporate companies say, please express yourself, but we really mean, expressing yourself within our means. I’d much rather give up something like an outfit, instead of trying to suppress my personality. Which is what they have been doing for the past four years. Go team?

Okay I had two more links but chrome doesn’t want to cooperate today, till next time then.

I previously blogged about it’s precedent in a trilogy of films about design: Helvetica

I actually found this one MORE interesting than the helvetica documentary. My profession has nothing related to design, my profession has nothing to do with anything actually. But, objects are something that we all use each and single day, and seeing how something comes together is very amazing.

I recall a phrase said by a designer (not verbatim) on the BBC program : The Genius of Design (no longer online, and I can’t watch them on the BBC site because i’m not in the UK, anyone link? )

“Good design is something that looks as though it hasn’t been designed.”

the film also features some big shot designers, like the apple guy, but it’s pretty LOL right now what with all the apple antenna issue, but i guess it’s not his fault since he only designs the physical body of the product. So i’m asking, if this item is beautifully designed (and no one can deny how gorgeous the iphone 4G is) but it fails to function, is it still well designed? probably not…

i love the boys and girls at engadget and every single commenter, but i think im going to have to disagree and say that this is a step in the right direction in terms of design. I do agree with some commenters that the shadowing has to go!

People are asking in the comments section of Designboom “what is the point of this?” What’s the point of asking that question? What’s the point of anything?

when i visited Japan, Xlarge was upstairs and X-girl was downstairs. Only then did I realize they were probably the same company….!

Purcells don’t look good on me, I think in general purcells don’t look good on girls.

I have a pair of black canvas ones, they are pretty beat up, just the way I like it =)

the first thing i noticed about these pictures is his camera, it’s MY camera! I am looking for a leather case or something to protect it, but so far no luck. Also noticed his external flash, that is gorgeous. but i’m so lazy that i dont even want to carry the camera alone, am i willing to carry a flash? Well, maybe if i’m working.

The next thing i noticed is the selvedge on his pocket and rolled up denim. Nice (y)

Then the hand-tattoos, you think my future employers will care if I have hand-tattos or not? Some people give advice on the internet (and you know those are good advice) on positioning of tattoos, such as getting them away from the wrist or anywhere that can be seen while wearing a suit.

GTFO? if you’re gonna get one, get one where you want it, geez.

what a well put together look, people are obsessed with looks, it’s not really about brands, or how much money you’ve spent on your clothes. It’s details, and how it just, looks, so Together.
