So on this Monday night as I settle in to watch the Monday night game between the Chicago Bears and the Green Bay Packers, I can't help but remember just what it was that influenced me to join the program Creative Communications.
It all began in my senior year in high school when my teacher told me I should. That made me think about maybe doing it, but then Old Spice released a new campaign showing how male celebrities went from being somewhat nerds in high school to being the epitome of manliness.
Two notables from that campaign were LL Cool J and Brian Urlacher. It was Brian Urlacher who convinced me that a difference can be made through advertising because I actually began using the very product he was selling. It was powerful with its simplicity.
Of course, Brian Urlacher is a linebacker with the Chicago Bears, so tonight during the game, I owe my entire education and my future career to Brian Urlacher.
Love the memory!
