Omi, oh my! The Japan MacDonald new image ads are STUCK in my head!
it soooo cool! lol! how come our macdonald ads are not cool?? we have raps about rice for goodness sake!
They have a whole sexy ad on Tomato McGrand! What's that? we don't even have Tomato McGrand. Actually it doesn't sound nice. like Big Mac with too much ketchup or what. But i don't care... i'll eat it just because of the ads.
What can i say? I'm a image and branding junkie.
My fav. is the last scene for the Mr. MacDonald. His pose is hilarious. holding two tomatoes. and he does this funny look thing.
Thanks so much to that girl who did Macdonalds for her prezo... it's an eye opener!
go see it at youtube.com search for McGrand.
Today's Crowbar Seminar was really amazing... we saw this lady went up stage with a funny hair clip really low down at one side and a really bumpkin style and she started showing us this ancient ad for Guiness done by her and a whole abstract Bank of China champaign. And that ancient Nippon ad with the villages painting their old old houses really colourful? We were so convinced she's a relic until she started showing us her recent works.
Sony's ad. The one about 3 seconds to fall in love. 3 centries to preserve a tradition etc. etc. woah. *jaws slacken* i worshipped that ad... she couldn't have done it! aaaah!
Sony Ecrission's ad. The one with the son having a huge party at home with music from his handphone and the dad comes back and switch the music to retro and started dancing Saturday Night Fever? I'm tramuatised! She's funky tOO!
at the end of her prezo, I'm convinced that she's inhuman. I mean, she doesn't believe in pitching. All the clients approached her. *jaws drop*
ok. now back to my Project 1. I still need to come up with a logo by 7am. and do a bit of colouring. argh. haven't had proper sleep in 2 weeks!

Today.... is super uber unlucky. ok, maybe not uber.
First of all, my alarm clock is set to PM... so i only woke up when Alia called me at 10:30 (thank goodness, i was suppose to get out of house by 10:30)
So, i was half-awake when i entered the toilet with my eyes closed. I don't make it a point to open my eyes when i wake up... and guess what? i stepped on a wet moist bird shit on the floor. It was some freaking sparrow from the balcony that decided to be civilised and use the loo.
Gross.
ok. in a big hurry now, on my lap top to save all my illustrator and powerpoint files. Guess what? my thumbnail refuse to take it. my laptop jammed 5 times. wtf! So i got out my sis's harddisk and dumped everything in.
In school, at the print shop. guess what? GUESS WHAT?!?!
my illustrator files can't open for the first time in my life.
i am doomed.
@#%$%!@#$%!
Printed the disgusting Microsoft Word version without nice layouts.
At least my powerpoint slides work.
But realise i forgot to save the Gorillaz music into the harddisk. damn.
and i spoiled the case's zip in the process.
Presentation. Omg. Realise i got half the content wrong. Didn't have anything on the Designer. just reflections. argh! die! make up some stuffs on the spot. Desmond pretends to fall asleep and gives this super BORED look.
Panick.
Freaked out.
Handed up my report. Realise i got all my page numbers wrong. Argh!
At Jupiter Cafe, bought the cheapest egg sandwich. on a tight budget me!
guess what? i got a stomachache after that. ahh!
was trying to think happy thoughts (taught by Faith! heehee!)
so i was trying to think 'When life gives you horrible terrible bad days, you make, erm, badminton out of it? or or, you make full use of it and go to sleep instead."
so i went to sleep for the whole evening and when i woke up i decided that it's not a bad day after all. Well, first of all, Alia called me. Imagine if she didn't. i'll just die.
Then my powerpoint slides work. Cool.
oh, and the whole bunch of them stayed until after my prezzo. yay! thank you thank you! you guys probably just stayed for the sake of it but i don't care. lol! i choose to think my way. yay!
Oh yah, I saw a nearly full Orion today. So cool! You can see the belt and the head and the legs and this arm stretching out. I thought it's an arrow but it's not.

oh HEY!
*surprised look*
i'm blogging.
the stress must be getting to my head already.
i need inspiration! 50+ inspirations! ahhhhh!!!
ok. that's all.
just here to vent my load of bile.
'Lil' Loosy Dame,
likes to keep her head quite tame.
but with screws
and cotton balls
and half eaten marshmallows
junked where her brain should be,
Lil' Loosy Dame,
can't quite keep her head quite tame!'
