I always know it's nearly Christmas when I see this advert on T.V! You know what I mean...
But, what I want to know is, does it really make people buy coke at Christmas? It certainly makes me want to be at home with my family getting Santa's mince pie ready and putting out my stocking (oh, whatever, you totally still have one too!)
Did Coca-Cola really make Santa red? Rumour has it, they gave Santa his red 'image.' Does that make us want to drink Coca-cola at Christmas?
I have to say, the other day I really fancied a coke when I saw an advert for it at the train station. In fact, all this makes me want one right now!
It's worth a few thoughts though, right? How much power does advertising have over what we do, say, think even? Do you think advertising is creative or just bashed out?
Take some time (perhaps over a mince pie) to think about advertising...you never know what might come up!

Day 125: Arts funding cuts
I read a newspaper today. Shocking I know! You know what it said? They (being the current government) want to cut funding for arts subjects at Unis across the country. Well where does that leave us and the millions of other creative people across the country who want to study creative subjects?
Why do people NOT understand that the arts are important? It's like these people don't like being happy or something. Do they not go to the cinema/theatre/galleries/concerts...? Where do they think it all comes from...space!
Sorry about the rant. I just love being a creative person and I'm not going to stop, even if they take all the money out of everything in the 'arts'. Are you with me?
Guys, I want you to know that it is great to be creative. I'm with you and if you love it, then do it. You have my word; even if creativity is cancelled, I will still write this blog for you. I will still provide creative inspiration to spark the creative appetites of ALL those who need and deserve it. I ain't going anywhere!
So be inspired to stay creative, keep on it and show them all the value in the arts!
