about The Deep
They're always on American Apparel shirts, aren't they? So why do they still cost $25 for the "Select Designs?" Or is that just because they're allowed to use more than 4 colors? I don't know, it seems like a huge jump.

I'm pretty sure it's just becuase they can use more than four colours.

And because they're designed by "pros" or whatever, so they probably pay the designers of Select tees a fair bit more than $1500 (+ $500 of Threadless stuff).
And you pay more for the prestige factor too, probably. "Ooh, I'm wearing a shirt designed by (designer)! Aren't I cool and prestigious?" That doesn't work so well if it's like, "Ooh, I'm wearing a shirt by Genée Cosden!" (Not to pick on Genée, she knows I love her, but I just mean most people would be like, "WTF, who is that?" and you can't really blame them.)

Aaah I don't know. I'm rambling.

From what I heard they actually pay only 1000 because they don't have to go through the competition and they can do what they want.

I love filmmaking. Directing, filming, [especially] editing... It's pretty much what I want to do forever. Photography is pretty sweet as well.

I really feel like visiting the Seychelles islands.

Yeah... I like life. I think it's pretty cool.
