I used to wear an iPod in public (when they first came out and only 25% of the world had them). It was a quick and easy way to let people know that I was a passionate music fan who wanted to add a meaningful soundtrack to my life. Eventually, most of the world got iPods, and poor people got imitation flash mp3 players with white earbuds. One time I was at a park and a 'troubled teen' vagrant asked me if I had a computer so that I could load mp3s on to his imitationPod. He asked me if he could borrow my email address because he had to register the product and didn't know if he could put in his home address. The worst part about uneducated people who are 'a product of their environments' is when they 'actually interact with u.' Kinda made me yearn to be back on my college campus where every1 is 'smart' and understands 'Generally Accepted Social Principles & Personal Space Territorial Laws.'
N E WAYS...
I searched for new innovative ways to let the world know that I was an authentic music fan ever since 'having white earbuds in ur ears' stopped meaning what it used to. That's why I had a custom made piano key bag, and a kute dress that is actually a composition that I wrote called "Ode to Alt."
Should I stop thrifting and start designing custom clothes that incorporate my personal interests/past times/meaningful hobbies.
Remember when 'college campuses started giving away Mac products'?

Remember when u first went away 2 Design School and turned from 'teen' to 'authentic designer'?
