Bang Bang, That Aweful Sound

March 30, 2010

Let’s just get on with it. I’ll stop calling it a job. let’s just get back to work, as in old days, when we didn’t know how to solve our problems we used to work.
When uncle Wig was talkin’ about that last episode of Coyote I suddenly realized there’s a look I so much wanna give you. It was on my mind but I thought we’re no longer up for that kinda looks, So I just made a joke instead. That thing reminded me of the time that we needed no reason to work, it all seemed so obvious that we had to work, Was it just the fun or was it something between us? I wonder.
Anyway, let’s just do it. We don’t have to call it anything. It’s just that not doing it leaves me to think about stuff, stuff mostly from the past and all, and thinking hurts. So are you in or what?

P.S. Don’t you ever mock me for watching TV.

It’s Not A Job

March 29, 2010

A job that has to be done?! you’ve probably watched TV way more than I thought. I was just going to text you that we are 20. When are we supposed to have fun with our jobs ?
And what too much time? where’s the outcome? you just can’t write whatever you want and suddenly make them true.

OK here’s the real thing. It’s not about something you’ve said, I’m not a six years old kid.
You know why I quit that minaravesh place? Because I didn’t like him, it has nothing to do with the job. If you still wanna do it together you better stop calling it a job. I need the fun. If I wanted a job that makes me feel better I’d just sit on my chair and do it.

and stop talkin like a genius.

Gotta Go Pro

March 29, 2010

It’s Not about what i say. It’s not about what you say. It’s not about friendship. It’s not about the past, not about the future. It’s not about being in the mood. It’s a job; A job that has to be done. If i’ve said something that has upset you or put you out of the mood, frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn. Cause we’re way past that time. Cause I’ve decided a long time ago to be a professional. I’ve spent too much time on it to let some personal issues slow me down. There is no personal issues. Actually, there’s no personal. It doesn’t work that way. We shouldn’t let everyday life interact with work. We’re too old for that stuff. Think of it as having a job when you don’t like your partner. The job could still be fun, and still needs to be done. It’s time to let go of this amateur status… and go pro.

Just To Keep It Warm

December 31, 2009

Dear Brand diary,

It’s the end of semester. We haven’t had any work sessions for a while, but things are not as bad as it may sound. There have been some new ideas and last night we had a moderately constructive online chat. We discussed several ideas but the most important thing that came out of it was the fact that disagreements are becoming to show up. We talked about 2 major subjects  and in both we had completely different opinions. But frankly I’m not disappointed. Looking at the bright side it means that things are moving into a more serious phase. Actually I think if we get through this period, that means we’re professionals, and it’s a sign that we can go all the way through. So by this philosophy  I really hope that having these kinds of differences in opinion becomes a regular thing and even seen as part of the process. Last night at some points it felt a little discomforting, I’m talking about our tone of discussing things, but probably by recognizing that these things are not really out of order it’ll be okay. Guess it will.

P.S. Blogging is so much fun. Can’t believe I missed it for so many years!

P.S.S. I wonder where we’ll be Next year at new years Eve.

Real Diary

December 23, 2009

Remember when I said we should shut this blog off? Well I was wrong! this is really cheerin up!

Turns out lately I don’t think enough about the Brand :D , so I’m gonna start some serious thinkings from tomorrow!
and I promise that saturday I’ll bring new ideas.

PS to previous post: I think we shouldn’t talk about the friendship again, it just makes us feel more desprate.

Brand Keeped Itself Up (aka Co-Worker II)

December 23, 2009

I don’t know this just co-worker thing works or not. It’s just sad. I had a lot of dreams about this, it affects everything. Like you know 20 years later you’re the one that created this awesome thing with your best friend.Or this blog, shouldn’t we close it? I mean what’s the point? do colleagues make a blog for a project? yeah maybe they do put everything they did on the project but it’s not cool.

I’m aware of the fact that it’s a while that our friendship sucks. Its boring and not fun. But I didn’t brought these up because I didn’t want to ruin my dreams, and I hoped that maybe workin on brand will fix it. and I’m not saying that Robbie shouldn’t have talked about these. maybe it was the time.

Besides all of these dreams and changes, I want to finish this. so, co-workers.

This time Brand keeped itself up. 

dude! I really do cool off with things fast! wasn’t even a bit in the mood to make a joke! (I wrote a joke but it wasn’t good so:D)

Co-Worker

December 22, 2009

Dear Brand Diary,

It’s 3 in the morning. I’m forcing myself to write without the slightest idea what I’m gonna say.Hope it’s the last “I can’t say it in front of you” kind of post.
when we first talked about being co-workers two years ago it was more of a joke. And even in its most serious surface it suggested that we were better friends when working not that we were not friends but just co-workers.
But now, as we both probably know, the personal side of it has been buried forever. There’s nothing left. Now We’re not dependent to one another and don’t have to answer to each other. Sometimes maybe We’re even scared and god knows we’ve done bad things.

But the important issue here is that Brand creation shouldn’t suffer. And in order to save the business I think we have to face it. We have to face the fact that it’s all about the work now. Next time we come together to work on Brand it should be with the knowledge that we’re not doing it as friends now. Just as two smart people who are WORKING on sth. I really think that we have to face the truth that I myself have been trying to avoid for the past couple of months. And I also think it’s gonna be more inconvenient for me than Jackson.Maybe I’m wrong.
Hope I’ve succeeded in putting out my feelings which definitely don’t include anger or hatred. I’m just filled with this sudden understanding of the truth.

P.S. This post has a soundtrack: “The End” by “The Doors”

Restarting

December 21, 2009

I know I shouldn’t bring this up again but to clear my mind of it I’m gonna say that I didn’t judge the styles.

So, back to diary
I’m just saying that the second work day is comin’ and we’ve decided to change the process. I think this would work much better.

Good luck with us, Jackson.

P.S. Robbie, I’m sure you thought that way. Sorry just can’t believe.

Idea Log

December 21, 2009

Dear Brand Diary,

1. Today I’m gonna talk from a more technical point of view. Don’t know if it’s the place to put down these kinds of ideas (especially before talking them out with Jackson), but I wanted to wipe out some of the blankness depression out of the page.

2 At least in “my style of thinking” (you hear that a lot these days) there’s no discipline. Lots of tiny various ideas from totally different fields of a brand may come to mind in a short time. I thought we could use some kind of an Idea Log, where we can put every idea on a moment’s notice. And just put them. No description, no thinking about the words, no rules. Just put it in order not to forget it. It could be anything, a text file, a board on the wall, even a glass bowl ( Like the one they used to save money in “Up”. Just instead we’d be saving ideas!).

3. When Posting the blog last time I thought about tagging and the fact that it can be useful. Don’t actually know where. but it’s a subject to think about. Maybe even we can create a search system using tags. I feel i’ve heard of that somewhere. That’s all for today.

P.S. Every Dog Has Its Day.

Great Depression

December 19, 2009

I too have those feelings. It’s definitely in our 5 top worst days, not because we didn’t do anything, or that stupid wallpaper. It’s just because I figured out we’re never gonna do things together like before. Maybe it’s about our friendship, which is currently on a dead level, or being enthusiastic or our “different styles” or even lack of a boring class. I don’t know.

We weren’t like this. I don’t know what really happened there. We came up with ideas and just wrote it down and we had fun. I know nothing serious got out of  there but I believed we could finish these things anytime we wanted and that was it. Now we changed, it’s all about work, it’s gonna be what we do. And we admit it. Then tried this playful work thing and then today happened, four or five ours of me losing hope. I’m usually very optimistic but this time really lost it, not in the whole brand thing, in us workin together.

Maybe it’s just we passing the 20′s. We shouldn’t make this this serious. I think we should get rid of these and just do how we’ve been doing before.

I wanna say to infinity and beyond but … :D .
Can’t be too serious though!

With hard feelings! Jackson.
