326pm Thu Mornin April 8

If you make pancakes, would you eat your own?
If you sell chicken rice, would you look forward to, well, chicken rice every day?
Likewise, if you're a copywriter by trade, would you write your own blog?

There are a few reasons why i went ahead with this rant
so let me see if i can list it down to start with
1. i have trouble sleeping, well i don't, i just don't like it much
2. i've been posting capoeira training progress logs on my facebook notify list, and due to popular demand (5 people) i've started a blog to log progress, or rather, the attempt at not regressing at capoeira. We're on Day 2, so stay tuned.
3. twitter's getting me addicted to the net again. i still don't know why.
4. ever since taking on the role of associate creative director, i don't write all that much no more, so i guess this is a good place to start. (Who's listening? )

Is there a template to the things you want to write about? Only if you're after hits i guess. So where do i start with this rant.

The day started well. It's always good when you wake up before your drill-sargeant of a girlfriend. Meeting at TM went well. The good pimps at dentsu were at it again. Charmin' the hightops and having mind-sex with clients. Stroking their egos with our charm, and arousing their shiver-me-timbers with our creatives.

We've got a good radio that i really want to see born. Once again, the tempting 'I don't care which radio we sell we're gonna record this one for sure cause it's good for my folio and maybe for a metal' feelin rears its ugly head. No. No. We shall sell it the honourable way. They bought it anyway so we'll just have to pimp it that much harder in the 2nd round with them bosses.

It's great to go for shoots. Therapeautic. And good to see the team enthusiastic about a Testimonial TVC campaign. How many creative teams would scrutinise every word, (we had a teleprompter) every second and every twitch of a twitchy eyelid from our rag-tag bunch of SME talents? Ok i'm sure you're out there... i'm just proud of the crew is all.

What you don't believe us? Well then. How many creatives would do a 'Client Award Night' video just for kicks, and not because it's a chance to do a scam for the awards? Here's proof:

okay i'll upload the video eventually when i figure this blog thingy out.

ooh. writer's blog. i mean block.

oh yes. blogs should be a little educational no?

learnt more super-useless mac/internet facts from rudy

if you've spent too much time in front of your mac
the good people at apple have devised a shortcut to make sure you... well spend more time in front of it i guess. And reduce eye fatigue.
Not sure about that, but it does look cool.
If you hold CTRL + ALT + APPLE + 8
your screen will turn negative like the film
apparently this change is better than eyemo
i think i'll just use it as a cheap prank on colleagues
anyone knows if Vista has this function?

Blogs also need to have photos right?
I'll see if i can figure the bluetooth + razr (archaic, i'm old school ok!) connection
see if i can drop in some pics of the day i suppose
i have a collection of car parking bay numbers that one day might look cool in an exhibition

344pm - i've scheduled myself to sleep. i still need to work in a few hours. or get through it at least. Gotta pimp gbum's SME logos among other things. The weekend couldn't have come sooner. Monday already felt like Thursday.
