The Laws of Simplicity

iThinking

"When you feel like you're not wasting time while performing some task, you may also feel that the task is simpler."

" Designers can tackle the time challenge in two different ways: by making the wait shorter or by making the wait more enjoyable."

The GB Epitome xx GG Collection

While at Red Robin, drag-on and starting fwd and I got into an indepth convo about the state of the world today, pertaining to the trends in particular. We talked about how the game was blown up by those who use to learn from the pioneers. Anyway, I came to this idea of starting a clothing line called The GB Epitome and the GG Collection for women.

The GB Epitome Men's Collection:
Mt. Rushmore/ North Face of quad GBs
Heli Vest silhouette T-shirt with or without hydration tube

That's a wrap

Saturday: Partied at Brooklawn, at Tone's apartment. Overall, Brooklawn held it down. As far as parties are concerned, Jerzz can't touch that. Talk about a diverse crowd, catz were looking outright weird. A few chotehz were stylin', I guess that's how they do in design schools. Everybody from FIT, Parsosn, Pratt seem to have something that stood out whether it be hair or clothing or accessories (Something that definitely stood out: dudes rockin pants so tight it literally wrapped their legs, wtf..if that ain't karomo then I dunno what to tell you). Props to Drag-on for the motivation. If it wasn't for him, I would've thought about it too much and failed to take the necessary course of actions. Although that wasn't the primary target, it's one tiny step away from AFCness. But her friend was looking righttt though, daymm!

Sunday: I concluded my pizza career at LSC, for now? I wouldn't mind working there over Christmas break. Overall, it was a great atmosphere to work in. My co-workers we're an entertaining bunch, if we weren't bird watching, we were jokin around, talkin bout cars..the job was pretty chill. Busy days were good, it definitely made time fly by. Making pizzas made me think twice about switching into Culinary, but that'll stay as a hobbie.
Later on that night, the Triangle Offense + Mastermind rolled to Hartwell Ave. in RU NB for a party.. rather a mess. Was the venue too small or were there just too many heads? Anyway, considering how packed it was, the Mastermind and I decided to man the kegs and he comes up with a brilliant idea of pre-filling cups, which took care of the foam problem. The highlight of the night, Starting FWD is so money, he got madd potential; he was getting plenty of looks from chotehz even in Brooklawn. Sho nuff, TN was feeling the Starting FWD after some strategic marketing from my part. Night ended with everyone knocked out at Virginia.

I'll wrap up the summer on the next post or maybe I'm not even gonna bother considering how weak it was compared to last summer.
