“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it.”
“And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.”
― F. Scott Fitzgerald

Best Wine Label Design?
If I’m looking to try a new wine, I usually pick the bottle according to label, more specifically - the design of the label! This is some of the best wine label design work I have seen - Simple, clever and unique.
“Design studio Lavernia Cienfuegos from Valencia designed the packaging for a range of wines of the world that Belgian supermarket Delhaize offers within its own brand ’365′.” (via We and the Color)

how do you sell black water?

We’re not talking about the underlord empire BlackWater. We’re talking about water that is black.
If you’re the package designer, the answer is simple. Elegant type and a clear bottle. Let the product shine. Or in this case, absorb all light. Drink up.
Amazing design job - but would you drink it?

Columbia University janitor cleans up with bachelor's degree.
Amazing story about a 52 year old refugee, working as a janitor, taking college courses in his spare time. He graduated this past weekend with honors from Columbia University and is looking to pursue his Masters or possibly his doctorate degree next. But not for the money, “The richness is in me, in my heart and in my head,” Filipaj said. “Not in my pockets.”
Shortly after he walked crossed the stage he “picked up a broom and dustpan and returned to work.”
