Day 22: Too Cool



Fragment: "(Hashtag) Well Played sir"
Font: TwitterU and Pico
Quoted: Allen Zhang

Dedicated to a day of fun and silliness with amazing friends: Kevin, Mary, Victor, and Allen.
Victor: I guess coolness has finally caught up to me.
Allen: #well played sir.

COLOR, BAM!
The font that twitter uses for their logo is similar to Pico, though slightly edited (like the e isn't pico's and the t is from the 2001 version) I found a font called TwitterU here, which is a nice edit, though it's missing quite a few characters.

Anyways. Love you guys xoxo

Day 21: Twitterpated

Fragment: "If you can't say something nice, don't say nothing at all"
Font: Times New Roman
Quoted: Thumper from Bambi

I came to the sharp realization earlier today that I've actually missed a day of blogging due to flying around. I'm making up for it now. Sorry!

A quote from Thumper in Disney, while grammatically incorrect, good advice nonetheless.

Day 20: Pretty Woman


Fragment: "The bad stuff is easier to believe."
Font: Avant Garde
Quoted: Julia Roberts, as Vivian Ward, in Pretty Woman

I spent the entirety of my flight back to California watching quality television: Indiana Jones, Pretty Woman, What Women Want, Archer, Jersey Shore, Family Guy, and Two and A Half Men.

Full quote from the 1990 movie, Pretty Woman:
Vivian: People put you down enough, you start to believe it.
Edward: I think you are a very bright, very special woman.
Vivian: The bad stuff is easier to believe. You ever notice that?

Quoted: Adele in Someone Like You

It isn't over til it's over
Or til you give up.
Jake sang this song at his event, Standing Room Only. 
Videos of Jake to come

This is actually the second poster I made today. I ended up giving up this one:
Not that I don't like it, but it's certainly a different sort of fragment.

Day 16: Judgement


Fragment: "...the weight of that which is weightless"
Font: Helvetica Neue
Quoted: Professor Alexander Nemerov

Professor Nemerov was speaking on this painting, by Vermeer. Running through an xray, they found the scales actually hold nothing.
Weighing the weightless, valuing the valueless, and basking in the feeling of simply being alive.
