Friendly Friday
Today was actually a pretty good day. It seems like evrything has changed since yesterday, lol duh..But i did my presentation today and i got to 12 minutes and I was so nervous and so happy at the same time. But anyways i still have nothing to do this weekend but i just woke up from the most wonderfulest nap. But anyways not much to say today but I want to include something I said in my presentation because it really makes you think and this is from someone's blog.

You don’t have to respect designers. You really don’t. The frivolous, superficial productions that designers create are natural to overlook, and even easier to ignore. But whether you know it or not, we’re helping you. Let’s explore what the world would look like if designers weren’t doing their jobs.
If designers weren’t designing…
1. People would die.
Ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars would look like regular old vehicles, just in a bigger hurry.
Safety diagrams and warning signs would not exist, leading to thousands of needless beverage spills and accidental electrocutions.
Interfaces like car dashboards would take hours of concentration to decipher, with no designers to bring simplicity and order to the layout.
2. Information would suffer.
Your ability to read books, magazines and newspapers would be gone, as you try to focus your eyes on body text that isn’t properly typeset or laid out, lacks any kind of meaningful explanatory diagrams or photographs, and has no discernable structure throughout the publication.
The Internet would be stuck in 1993, with nothing but text-based browsers to help you check email and read websites.
You’d never be able to catch the right bus, because all the bus schedules would be gone and there’d be no route numbers on the busses themselves.
3. Decision-making would slow down.
When choosing something like a bank or a university, you’d have to rely on your own notes, because you wouldn’t have any brochures or pamphlets to take home with you.
When shopping, aisle signage would be absent, and product labels would be cluttered and inconsistent (okay, so that’s not much of a change).
When ordering food, menus would be positively disorganized, with photos, prices and descriptions in no reasonable order. You might not even know what restaurant you were in.
4. Life would be uglier.
Your favourite music artist would have no album covers. If you’re lucky, they might put a helpful handwritten scotch-tape label on the front. (Same with movies – no posters and no snappy movie logo).
Artwork like event posters, wall murals, building signage and public art would be missing, and in its place would be a lonely, heartbreaking void.
Countries would have no flags, companies would have no logos and Olympic athletes would have blank uniforms, leading to massive confusion, a worldwide drop in morale and patriotism, and a very colourless, unimaginative planet. (by Kevan)
That was real deep

Terrific Tuesday
OOO i went to Hooters last night for the first time, and they have some bomb food, oh and by the way if you havent already, you should try fried pickles, i love em.
Hmm so anyways it was another warm/hot day in November. OK day but still boring. Went to Mervyns today to see how their little going out of business sale is going. I have been there since I first heard about it and they still have a lot of stuff and their prices are still high so i am still waiting for it to get low because I think i can go to JCPenny and get lower prices.
But on another note my blog assignment is due tomorrow, 1500 words, wooo i hope i can make it. Thanks to all who came to my page just to come or even read something. But i still will continue doing what i do on here because i feel its a way to release, so yea thanks.
New shows tonight Keyshia Cole @ 10, Brothers to Brutha @ 10:30 both on BET. YAY

Mixed Monday
I have mixed feelings about today. So i woke up tired, nothing usual, went to class. I have a new project for graphic design which is to create a menu for a restaurant- fictitional or real. So i might have fun with that 1. And i have a presentation on my topic of graphic design and i am really finding some interesting things about it. It has to be 10-15 minutes for friday and i keep practicing and it comes to 8:30 minutes. So i have been trying to add other elements such as more pictures and videos. So i found another cool video on you tube of course.
Some interesting facts about the world without design(ill only say a few because i dont want to spoil my presentation)
Ambulances, fire trucks, and police cars would look like regular old vehicles, just in a bigger hurry. Safety diagrams and warning signs would not exist, leading to thousands of needless beverage spills and accidental electrocutions
The Internet would be stuck in 1993, with nothing but text-based browsers to help you check email and read websites
When choosing something like a bank or a university, you’d have to rely on your own notes, because you wouldn’t have any brochures or pamphlets to take home with you.
But yea if you think about it life would be real simple but in a complicated way

hmm sunday again
im back once again...yay Draya. so yea im out here in Riverside bored. theres fires going on everywhere but im not really affected by it, the sky is all clear over here but i do smell it in the air. But what i wanna know is are people starting these fires or is it so dry that sticks rub together and make fire. Cuz this is getting ridiculous half of the mountains are already burnt so do they re-catch on fire? But hey its Cali we have earthquakes and wildfires and it 90 degrees in November. weird I know...So anyways I've been searching for a video, still searching at this moment but some shows to watch out for this week: Keyshia Cole "The Way it Is" on BET on Tuesday @ 10 and a new show with some fine brothas "Brothers to Bruthas" on BET @ 10:30 but i think i found a video
Here are the Bruthas they sound pretty good, i support them :)
But anyways my blog project is almost over and i didnt make it over 100 visitors oh well i still had fun sharing my life with you, so yea i will still write when its over and hopefully someone will catch on and start leaving comments. Oh well catch you later, people

Browsing the net

Just browsing the net and i saw this and it hit the spot so yea something good to follow for all the libras out there
"Libra"
Insights into Likes, Dislikes, Motivations and Desires:
Libra rules the House of Partnership, which means they tend to be socially inclined and more interested in other people than themselves. Your Libra will need you to have as much fun on your date as they are! Something social would be successful with a Libra date -- and if it's artistic or cultural to boot, then you'll really impress those Scales. Why not try an art opening at the museum? Beauty and sensuality are important to Libras, so this is definitely the person for whome you want to bring flowers to the door.
Suggestions for the perfect date:
go out for dessert, attend a book or poetry reading, play a game, go to the opera or theater or ballet, go to a party, attend an art opening, take a walk in a botanical garden, attend an outdoor music festival, play tourist in your town, go to a restaurant where you can share your food (Chinese), watch an art film together, go hot air ballooning, take helicopter tour, fly a kite together, go to an air show, get a joint massage or spa treatment, watch a sunset together
