This is like Survivor for me


I'll be home for the weekend.. drying off

and i guess you can never get away from who you are. or you can't start your life over until you've faced who you truly are [the good, the bad, and especially the ugly]. location, people, and the cold weather will only distract you for the time being.

words of wisdom

"We started as a ship of fools. And that, I firmly believe, is why we have succeeded. We were struggling to figure out what an advertising agency actually was. And our one and only client, Nike, was trying to get a grip on what a client was supposed to do with one. We were both incredibly stupid. That was the key. See, when you don’t know, you try desperately to find out. But the minute you think you know, the minute you go – oh, yeah, we’ve been here before, no sense reinventing the wheel – you stop learning, stop questioning, and start believing in your own wisdom, you’re dead. You’re not stupid anymore, you are fucking dead." - WK President Dan Wieden

"Chaos does this amazing thing that order can’t: it engages you. It gets right in your face and with freakish breath issues a challenge. It asks stuff of you, order never will."


if they made a talkable action figure of Mr. Wieden, i'd give everyone one for Christmas.
