Hey yall. Had a super busy weekend. I have been awake for the past 72 hours, doing tons of addy (adderal), a lil bit of blow, 5-hour energies, Diet Red Bulls, and even tapped into my ‘emergency reserves’ of Sparks. My first design school project is due tomorrow, and the critique is gonna be super hard. My professor was a guest judge on Project Runway, so I really need to impress him if I want to get an internship with some1 relevant.
The assignment was ‘make a piece of clothing that represents u.’ I chose to make a sweet jacket. I’m new to sewing, so I needed something that would rlly ’stand out’ without exposing my technical flaws. I think the rugged aesthetic of my jacket really works. It looks formal, but also ‘chill’ since there is some denim. There’s also a patch of my fave game, Super Mario World, on it. Really feel like this jacket is me.
I am afraid of my critique, yall. Afraid of ‘having to justify’ why my work of art exists. Not sure if I will ‘get fucking grilled’ for some of my design decisions. Worried that there will be some hi level art fggts who make better stuff than me. Worried about ‘not being the best’ in my class. Don’t want 2 b made fun of. This jacket is ‘actually me.’ Just hope people accept me 4 who I am.

lol carles you are such a dick, this guy obviously has little talent. I dont know if it was worth writing a blog about this. People like this make me not want to major/minor in art.

dats a rly cool jacket. It says “I don’t care what people think” in a really needy way. Consider me impressed.

But does he truly love Super Mario World? Or did he use that patch just to be “IRONIC”? Because if it’s the latter he’s showing disrespect to Nintendo fans the world over

the laether denim combo rocks beyond describtion! i gonna make one like it with micheal jackon’s moonwalker on the back after all the hype about his death dies down. any of you dudes remember sega cd? i won it in contest in egm and it came with that &some old school side ways shooting game, that’s how i remember moonwalker. it was so funny now i think about it (though it was pretty fun at the time)… he wears this like miami vice suit and jumps on tables and kicks people. they should bring it back as a tribute to him

I want “love” to be centered. WTF is with the polka dot on the bottom left? Other than that, it’s not bad.

@nik,
you can’t just center every word you want to
we can’t all go around with ‘centered’ words on our clothes like ‘love,’ ‘mario,’ and ‘gap’
wish you would take this more seriously
