If you are confident, they will say you are arrogant.
If you are deliberate, they will say you are too sure of yourself.
If you have a sense of purpose, they will say you are self-absorbed.
If you know who you are, they will ask, “Who are you, anyway?”
If you believe in kindness and compassion, they will say you are naïve.
If you are a dreamer, they will say “join the real world.”
If you are a rebel, they will try to shut you down.
The instructions include:
rein it in
slow it down
wait it out
pull it back
take your time
play it safe
But you will know:
They are envious because they want what you have.
They are afraid of change even as they crave it.
They are projecting their own regret into resentment of you.
It’s not all bad news: some of them will sort themselves out and end up joining you. Because you are a good person and have had plenty of false starts of your own, you’ll understand and welcome them warmly.
We’ve missed you! you’ll say. It’s about time you made it.
As for the others, well, you will remember what Gandhi said:
“First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win.”

Project TikTok+LunaTik Multi-Touch Watch Kits
Remember my last post? Apparently, there is a design in process, which, by the way, is the AWESOMEST ive seen.
It is the TikTok+LunaTik Multi-touch Watch Kits.
TikTok is a simple snap-in design. It allows the user to easily and securely snap the Nano into the wrist dock. It cleanly and simply integrates the Nano and transforms it into a modern multifunction timepiece.
LunaTik is designed and intended to be a premium conversion kit for someone that wants to dedicate their Nano to being a watch and the newest conversation piece with their friends. It is forged from Aerospace Grade Aluminum and then machined via CNC into its final form.
The straps are made from high grade silicone rubber and the hardware is solid stainless steel not some chrome plated brass that will wear off. The quality of these watch cases and straps will be scrutinized very carefully and produced in the same factories that produce the best watches for companies like Nixon, Diesel, Vestal, and Nike.
Go visit the site if you wanna back this project up for funding by pledging from a dollar to $500. For a $50 pledge you are pre-ordering and will receive the LunaTik Multitouch Watch Conversion Kit. The Lunatik is hot-stamped and CNC'd out of aerospace grade aluminum at one of Apple's suppliers. The LunaTik will sell for $69.95 online and at retail. Includes shipping within the USA. (Shipping to Canada add $10, International add $15 to pledge amount)
THIS PROJECT WILL BE FUNDED ON THURSDAY DEC 16, 11:02PM EST.

The Nano Watch.
Find some of the current iPod nano watch options a bit too subdued for your style? Then you might want to consider Griffin's new Slap wristband, which looks to be among the most protective and colorful options to date. Made entirely of a soft silicone, the Slap is available in no less than eight different colors, and it completely encloses your iPod nano (save for the headphone jack) but promises to still let you control the volume and sleep / wake buttons through the case. Still no word on a release date, but you can expect this one to set you back the same $25 that most other similar wristbands seem to be going for.
Yes. I am still going for the Nano with this accesory. This is my watch. THIS.
(edit:)
Look, the future is in hyper-informed wrist accessories. If you don't know that by now, what do you know? Not that, assuredly. Sony Ericsson's Android-augmenting, Bluetooth-tethered LiveView accessory is now available in some European countries, including some fan faves like the UK, Germany, and France. Prices seem to vary from country to country, with a UK version going for £48.97 (about $79 US), France getting a €59 shot at it (about $80 US), and Germany swooping in with an über-low €42 tag (about $57 US). All three disparate prices seem a small amount to pay to place the future on your wrist / other clippable surface, but maybe that's just us. (source)
Until this. I can live with this. No. I love this too. Fits right for my phone :D
The Walking Dead
The Walking Dead had a huge amount of viewers (Pilot ep: 5.3M, 2nd ep: 4.7M, 3rd ep: 5.1M) but the first season will only carry 6 episodes. 13 episodes for the second season on... wait for it...
OCTOBER 2011.
what. the. f.
I know it's awesome and all but I think it's unfair making us wait for almost a year. :'(

The Devastation.
I actually wondered when it's gonna stop. I mean, every time I go home, every time I had fun, it seemed like an addiction of running back towards the thought of you.
Every single time that I think of you, I think of all the memories we had together. I can still hear you laugh, the feel of your touch, the way you smell, and the sight of you whenever I wake up. But now I also think of how we hurt each other, of how we used to feel like a victim. I have thought of how I managed to survive myself so I could fit in your world. On how I tried accepting who I was. On how I tried to be accepted by everyone.
But that was years ago. 6 years ago. I knew myself a li'l. Because all the while, I thought you were just behind me, supporting my baby steps. Funnily, you weren't.
I had opened my heart and my soul. Communication is the key, so I've said. You've never listened. You never cared.
Now here you are, parading like we never existed. Like we never knew each other. That I just have to keep my pride and convince myself that I'm tired of chasing you and making you understand that hey, we have to be okay.
But now I'm not sure. Because I'm only concerned of the time that you might need me, and I'm not there anymore to care.
Yesterday was the day we give each other letters, or texts. Or a li'l something that would make each other smile. But from now on, today is the day when I ended my devastation.
Sorry. I have to get over you.
P.S.
You know I'm happy to be with someone. I could be happy for you too. But you never gave me the chance to feel that for you.
End the lying. It became your last stick of cigarette that never burnt out.
