Do you believe in advertising?

I was browsing the net a couple weeks ago, as I often do in between checking my various e-mails and online networks, and I somehow ended up on a blog I Believe in Advertising. The blog updates regularly with novel advertising ideas that stretch from advertising agencies all over the world.

It's interesting to see what ad campaigns some of these people have come up with. Many of the advertising ideas that I've seen seem to be following a trend of innovating advertising by refining the materials used as the display medium: forget about billboards, or spending money on whole posters--several ads that I have seen go right on the sidewalk, or on top of other ads. I like the idea of making ads more diffuse in our environment since it introduces a new way of thinking for the ad producers. I may not, however, be in as much agreement with the what the ad producers are trying to advertise--but, that's a whole different batch of bananas.

As I wait for my french onion soup to finish in the oven...

It's been a minute since I've taken the time to put up another post. My job, academic adventure, and basketball interests have kept me from being at a computer long enough to empty out the cognitive build up that I withhold throughout the week:

1. My job, which requires I triple as a daycare assistant, recreational leader, and faux older brother, is not always as physically taxing as it can be spiritually draining. I understand the effect that the world has on 12-13 year olds, and I am torn between the reality that my site leader is not as organized as I would hope she could be and wanting to organize exceptionally enriching activities that would require the other leaders at the site to "put their foots down" to a greater extent than everyone has assumed responsibility for. I digress...

2. My class load is not too heavy unit-wise nor material-wise. I am taking three classes spread over the weak (I know it's a typo, but I decided to combo the modifier with the noun) and have been studying with less intensity compared to previous semesters. It could also be that I am simply more organized, and thus more efficiently deal with my scholastic necessities more responsibly. The biggest load that sources from any of my classes comes from my Media of Creativity class--like many humanity classes, the shit's deeper than the sulfur-rich environments of the Atlantic Ocean. This class makes me THINK. With a fucking "G". THINGK.

3. My weekends are basketball prone. I'll usually end up at 24, or some gym working on my game. I'll be joining the adult league in Benicia that begins in April. So, I'm giving myself ample time to prepare.

I intend on diversifying the material of this post by finding friends and relatives who enjoy typing out their experiences, or simply sharing material they think should be dispersed. Hopefully, this will happen sooner than later. But, it will happen.

Cheers
