I DEFINITELY need one of these:
It's the high quality rear view mirror for your computer monitor. Mount it on the top corner of your monitor with the included velcro and, Voila! you have eyes in the back of your head. Nobody can sneak up and scare you. The boss has a harder time catching you playing solitaire.

CLIPSE: IM GOOD

I'm Good

Positive Thought of the Day


“Missing someone gets easier everyday. Because, even though it is one day further from the last time you saw each other, it is one day closer to the next time you will”--- Drake

Dr. Romanelli x A Love Movement

These are kinda old but they're cute and different:





Dr Romanelli and Tetsuzo Okubo of A Love Movement teamed up on their first collaborative project called Dr. Love. “Both brands share the ideal of recycling the discarded past order to create something fresh and contemporary. The fusion of Romanelli’s recycled panel technique with Tetsuzo’s colorful vintage patch narratives and cashmere-reworked lettering creates a dynamic and playful dialogue of meaning and form. The end result is a limited collection of vests delivered this Holiday season and into 2009.”




















Dr. Romanelli for Fall Out Boy

Dr. Romanelli has put a surgical touch on creating a one-off piece for Fall Out Boy, deconstructing vintage military uniforms and putting them together again into a cool patchwork bomber jacket and a hooded number. It is easy to recognize the panels from various army and military uniform jackets, giving these remade outerwear a background narrative by tapping into their age and vintage quality.













Cute Shirt

The Fall 2009 collection of t-shirts are launched by Alphanumeric, staying true to their concept and delivers witty graphics that provoke thoughts. This collection comprises of 22 designs that questions the viewer with such slogan tee that reads “1000 channels and nothing is on".

Lyrics: Drake Call It Off

I love music, so a lot of times, my mood dictates what I listen to. A lot of folks listen to beats and not lyrics, but to me, I need beats and lyrics to make a good song. This is how I'm feeling today...


Uh, when did you get like thisLeast you coulda done is gone and give me a warning,I don't regret like this, So I'll be right there when you, wake up in the morning, Saying, this just ain't my style, You can't say you're happy either, You don't even smile, for me....

Where there is cheese there are rats,Where there are rats there are cats,Wherever there are cats there are dogs.If you got the dogs you got bitches.Bitches always out to put their paws on your riches. If you got riches you got glitches.If you got glitches on your life computer turn it off and then reboota.Now you back on.Can't just put the cap on the old bottle once you pop it that will spoil it gone and drink it and enjoy it, uh.

Spaz

Encouraged by Paul Laurence Dunbar


I am not writer, so I use other folks works to describe what Im feeling at times.

Because you love me I have much achieved,
Had you despised me then I must have failed,
But since I knew you trusted and believed,
I could not disappoint you and so prevailed.
