New Years Resolutions
Be better at negotiation. Stop doing freelance work for crap pay.
Cook more — spend less money on eating out.
Only get Starbucks once a week at the very most.
Respond to your damn emails.
Stop putting important things off.
Don’t give up until you get a proper internship.
Keep a journal of designers and firms you admire, and why you like their work.

God & Worshipper: A Rock-and-Roll Love Story, of... →
Wesley, of course, read from the Book of Darnielle, while the next girl read the lyrics of Conor Oberst, a.k.a. the folksinger Bright Eyes. Wesley was disgusted. “Bright Eyes is not a man, he’s just a boy,” Wesley told me. “Bright Eyes is just this over the top ‘I am wussy man, here me roar.’ Did you know the word virtue comes from the Latin word for man? You get too sensitive, you lose your...

Frank Chimero: Design Advice →
