Going to the Movies

Whenever you walk throughout the movie theatre you catch different movie posters advertising the next big movie. However, some movies do this way better than others. The point of a movie poster is to catch your attention and draw you in to see the next movie. This poster uses a simple design of revealing the villain and showing the poor damsel in distress. However, due to how old is they use a more artsy approach to it. But, with todays technology poster have become much more epic and extravigent. They put big movie stars on the cover with big explosions and girls to draw the people in. Although as simple as that design sounds it's what gets the job done. who wouldnt want to see a movie with explosions, stars, and girls? Thats right, nobody. Oh, and Vampires?

Shoes.

I was recently employed at the local Journey's at Circle Center Mall. There I do my best to sell shoes. What boggles my mind is all of the different designs and variations of shoes. There are some very simple designs that looks very hip, new, and cool. However, somewhere down the road i think someone went a little overboard with the "hip". However, despite the way some of the shoes look in the store, they still sell like hot cakes. This shows that the designer really knows what kids want these days. Apparently, kids these days want crazy colored shoes. They actually kind of look like clown shoes. They wouldnt personally get my purchase, but its my duty to make sure the customer gets what he or she wants.

During one of my first adventures into circle center mall i wandered into the food court and stumbled upon Currito Burrito. I was hungry, really hungry. I needed something to fill me up so I look into Currito Burrito. It looks like Chipotle and i wanted it to be Chipotle. It was kind of eerie the way it was set up. It was almost exactly like Chipotle. Although, they had some minor little changes the overall presentation of the food chain was an exact copy of Chipotle. But, did it taste like chipotle? I was on a mission to score one of these burritos and try it out for myself. So, i ordered what i usually order at chipotle. However, to my dismay it was a little more expensive. More than ten dollars with chips and a drink. I sit down to look upon this burrito and it looks and smells exactly like a chipotle burrito. When i dig in however; i soon learn that this is not chipotle. In the end, this might look, smell, even have the same menu items. But, this will never subsitute a good solid Chipotle Burrito. Their design in setup will trick you into thinking its Chipotle, but really its not. You've Been Warned.
