EMPOWERING CREATIVITY

Introduction
A sympathetic juvenile who possesses an Introverted, Intuitive, Feeling, and Prospecting personality trait. On the outside, I may seem quiet or even shy. But I have a vibrant, passionate inner life. I value authenticity, empathy, and harmony. That said, I can be tripped up in areas where idealism and altruism are more of a liability than an asset.
SELF-CONFIDENCE:
MY PERSONAL JOURNEY
Mood
greetings,
I'm Joyzelle L. Santos
I’ve never been the social type, when I was young, I didn’t feel confident enough to speak to anyone; strangers nor to relatives. Adding my social anxiety, I tend to sweat, tremble, feel rapid heart rates, or nauseous.
Dealing with my self-esteem and confidence issues was tough. I had to dig deep into myself and work my way out, getting rid of the negative thoughts and replace them with positive ones, often facing hard truths about oneself. I tried different methods of losing weight; dieting, exercising, I even starved myself for 2-3 days. I had to go through checkups and meds because of those horrible decisions. I worked so hard to change what I didn’t like about myself, and what couldn’t be changed I accepted and embraced over time.
The journey has been long, and there’s still a lot to go through, but it’s a path that has to be walked.
Photo Manipulation
Beauty
Previous projects
A small simple word but with momentous meaning. Beauty doesn't mean having stunning face and body but true beauty lies in your soul, your character, and your confidence. The physical appearance may look appealing to you for some time but inner beauty is something that remains in the heart of others for the lifetime. Inner beauty helps you appreciate outer beauty. If you love, appreciate and feel good about yourself, you would feel more confident about facing and interacting with other beautiful people in the world. Remember, outer beauty can give you a glance, it’s inner beauty that makes someone stay. Be optimistic. Spread positivity, reveal your inner beauty to the world. Because you can only achieve tranquility of heart by your good deeds and beautiful character.
I edited this photo to spread positivity and inside beauty. Learn to love yourself first. If you feel beautiful, your own self-belief and confidence brings out a glow of beauty that no outer beauty can compete with. But if you feel ugly, your inner beauty will reflect the same idea and project it on your outer beauty. If you truly feel beautiful on the inside, you’d never seem unappealing to anyone else.
Infographics
Annotation and criticisms on the chosen infographics:
Though the colors were calming to look at, it didn’t match to the topic given. It wasn’t attracting any attention as it was too focused on the aesthetic or such. Colors are used to create curiosity and emotions to the viewers and help them to understand what was going on with the sign or infographics.
The poster was about COVID-19; information about it was given but we didn’t get a small introduction of wat COVID-19 is and were did it came from and how dangerous it could be. No updates were also given to let the viewers know or be aware with the current situation.
Annotation and criticisms on the made infographics:
As you can see, I made major changes for the infographics above but didn’t forget about the elements needed such as the contagion, prevention (I added a short description or ways on how to do them), updates, symptoms, etc.
I changed the color to something that would catch the attention of the viewer and at the same time, match it with the given topic. It made the infographics more presentable, balance, and informative as it states the equal relationship with the sizes, colors, shapes and gave a stability in the designing.
quarantine
experiences
social life
The coronavirus hit us by surprise, and consumed us within months. Nobody predicted that it would kill so many people, force countries to lockdown, shut schools and public places and put our life on hold making it uneasy for us.
school
As an introverted,
I like the idea of
being alone and
having my own
workspace. I got used to the repetitive routine wherein, I open my laptop soon as I get up from bed and close it when the clock strikes 12. Unmotivated but not willing to give up.
