On Wednesday, we are still listening for the rest of class to finish the presentation. More and more people showed their passion toward their goal. And then on thursday, Jackie's project is very interesting. She is researching about Movies. That really give me more inspiration into my project. 

Using her inspiration, I thought to myself that I should think about one of my favorite movie. And talk about the style in the movie. Nike Air Mag from Back to The Future came to my mind first. Not only it was a good movie, but also Nike just released the same exact shoe two years ago. 

4/26/2014 Saturday

Since Monday, I told myself. I will do these blog from Tuesday to Friday. However, I didn't do that. To be honest, I hate myself when I do that. Now I have to jam all the post in two days, and that is not allowed. However, I'm still going to do it. 

On Tuesday, the presentation started. I wasn't fully prepared. I didn't really think I had anything to show. Since I am not so organized, I went up and did the presentation poorly. And everyone else has their presentation organized. I should have done more than what I had. 

I did what I did last week. Look for news or clothing as my blog. And Tuesday night was my big night. I interviewed the design who designed Luma. I got more than what I expected. I even ask a life suggestion from him.

Looking back this week, I have done an "okay" job. I am still determined to post five blogs per week. However, for the things I do in class, I was mostly slacking off. I try to find the blogs that I do my research for, and as soon as it was done, I will start to open up my facebook and start checking what's on my newsfeed. 

However, I think I have been doing pretty good as a determined blogger. I know what I have to do every night and they are the first thing I do as homework. Because I love it, the assignments are pretty easy for me. 

The thing I have learned from last week is to stay focus. Although, I has been an entertainment for me to do my design researches. I spent a long time doing it, instead of finishing it and move on to other subject's homework. 

4/17/2014 Thursday

Thursdays is no doubt going to be my favorite days. I made it the shoe day. That means, I can spend the whole time just looking at shoes and talk about it. 

Today, in class, people sat down and talked about their project. We came to this question about the bigger goods. I realized that designs aren't always perfect. There is always something that is missing, eventually. That's the reason that there is always new function coming out. And I am, hopefully, going to be the part of that process of making something better in the future. I am very excited. 

Today's research, I wrote about the shoes that is better than I was by taking things away. And I have to say, sometimes adding more is unnecessary. By taking away something from the shoes, they reduced the production need yet give the shoe a better look and maintain its function. 

4/15/2014 Tuesday

From tuesday's research, I found the perfect example of designer's reason of design. Mr. Barnes and Mr. LaPorte, wrote in their description on their kickstarter account, that they design for their personal needs and sell it for people who have the same problems. 

I was having trouble what to share with people. I realized, instead of showing something that is already designed fully I should show people designs that are still in progress. Then I found this website called Kickstarter. They provide designers a place to look for funds, sharing new ideas around. 

4/14/2014 First Day

After setting the goal of this project, which is to share the new and good looking styles or products in order to let people on our campus dress more fashionable and most importantly look good. I also have decide that since my style of dressing is street wear. The blog I have created will mainly be talking about street brands and urban life style products. 

I have different topic for everyday and I hope I am able to post one article per day. Every monday will be apparel day. Every tuesday will be product or furniture designs. Every wednesday will be about interior design. Every thursday is the most important "Kicks of The Week" day. After the research from monday through thursday, friday will be on how to combine everything into our life style. 

Today is monday. And I was already late for creating my schedule. In class, after the schedule was created, I started to look for design blogs, fashion blogs to do my research. I found two that is very close to my topic. Hypebeast and Highnobiety are rated top influential fashion blogs. However, they are mainly about apparel designs. Therefore, I need to look for sources that has more variety on design topics. 

For today, I have to find some outfit that fits the incoming spring season. I'm looking for       t-shirts, Jackets. As I find the ones that I think should be in the article, I will post the pictures and the links to shopping site.

I found out that I am easily distracted by other things I find on the websites. Therefore, I should be focusing on my objective before I do some "further research".
