Best Part of Being A Graphic Designer.. by TDC
Today I read a great article "Best Part of Being A Graphic Designer" from The Design Cubicle. I have agree with some of their thoughts and makes me understand more about myself and what I been doing. To be truly, I was in a hard time lately. Every time, I felt closed to edge..then something pull me back. I treated every opportunity as hope/ experience. If you have asked me why you love to be a graphic designer? My answer would be: "Design give me challenges". and that's the main reason why I had passion of being a creative person. And Yes, I am believed in my ability that able to make our world prettier.

Fashion and music Icon - Lady Gaga
Lady Gaga is an American singer, song artist. Her first album "The fame" topped the Billboard Top Electronic Albums chart in the United States. Her fashion style are stand out and interesting did inspired me. It looks odd and cool at the same time. Gaga has stated that she is "very into fashion" and that it is "everything" to her.Her love of fashion came from her mother, who was "always very well kept and beautiful."She claims that: "When I'm writing music, I'm thinking about the clothes I want to wear on stage. It's all about everything altogether — performance art, pop performance art, fashion. For me, it's everything coming together and being a real story that will bring back the super-fan. I want to bring that back. I want the imagery to be so strong that fans will want to eat and taste and lick every part of us."(info from wiki)Check out her Latest video Paparazzi here
