Seriously, I didn't know what a brief/WIP/big idea is. I think I have a rough idea now. But I was in to learn. And learn I did.My love for bullet points doesn't stop with this post. Just want to journal a few points I've learnt from the world of advertising for my own sake. These are the things I can't forget.----------------------5<p><a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5irclPxLbaNozInDX5RAos-FxGk/0/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5irclPxLbaNozInDX5RAos-FxGk/0/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a><br/> <a href="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5irclPxLbaNozInDX5RAos-FxGk/1/da"><img src="http://feedads.g.doubleclick.net/~a/5irclPxLbaNozInDX5RAos-FxGk/1/di" border="0" ismap="true"></img></a></p><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/redsheep?a=ZpENm_Ni8a0:FZ61onDScgo:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/redsheep?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/redsheep?a=ZpENm_Ni8a0:FZ61onDScgo:F7zBnMyn0Lo"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/redsheep?i=ZpENm_Ni8a0:FZ61onDScgo:F7zBnMyn0Lo" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/redsheep?a=ZpENm_Ni8a0:FZ61onDScgo:V_sGLiPBpWU"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/redsheep?i=ZpENm_Ni8a0:FZ61onDScgo:V_sGLiPBpWU" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/redsheep?a=ZpENm_Ni8a0:FZ61onDScgo:qj6IDK7rITs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/redsheep?d=qj6IDK7rITs" border="0"></img></a> </div><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~r/redsheep/~4/ZpENm_Ni8a0" height="1" width="1"/>http://redewe.blogspot.com/2009/05/things-i-couldnt-say.htmlhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/redsheep/~3/gS_VnCrts-E/bangkok-experience.htmlTravel/Adventuresnoreply@blogger.com (Rachel Foong)Sun, 05 Apr 2009 12:48:00 PDTtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5360402484491962116.post-3854706020835015432010-10-02T00:14:45.152+08:00It's leaving me restless at 3 AM.
