friday

"the most beautiful discovery true friends make is that they can grow separately without growing apart."
- elisabeth foley
i had the pleasure of catching up with one of my roommates from college this past week. she is such a wonderful person and although we have chosen different paths to follow, our friendship is still strong.
she is back in l.a. and i miss her already. we lived together for three years - in the dorms, in an apartment off campus and then in a house in newport beach. we have shared some great times together and it was fun to reminisce about the old days. it is hard to believe that we have been friends for over 18 years! even though we don't get to see each other very often, i know she is always there for me and would hop on a plane in a heartbeat.

my college friend that just visited just happens to be a super marketing/pr/advertising guru and has been involved in some pretty amazing projects. in honor of her, i am going to share some recent ads that i really like.
this ad campaign is for the gorge grown farmers' market and was created by owen and jones partners in portland. how fun to find a big carrot in the middle of the city! very creative and a good use of the trees!
this is a great billboard for bic razors. i don't know which agency created this but i think it is so creative!
this ad is part of a very creative campaign by richter7 for the utah zoo.
where do i begin with my love for all things apple? i have been a devoted apple customer since i got my first computer in college. here are two of my favorite ads by apple. the first ad is part of the hilarious campaign that is constantly coming up with new and fantastic commercials. the second piece is simply stunning.

have a wonderful weekend!
