AW00 – Introduction – LT. Moodle Illustration

This task was a bit challenging, and it actually just got more confusing seeing trough the forum for ideas. And I’m not even sure if I solved this task right, is there even a right way? But I wanted to use the color wheel as the illustration with words around it. The reason I did this was because I know that we are going to use this a lot later on, and it put a lot of color in the task.

The words that I used was:

  1. Moodle
  2. Introduction
  3. Overwhelming : this platform is confusing at first, but after a few hours in here you learn how it works.
  4. Assignments
  5. Inspiration
  6. Forum
  7. Future
  8. Progression
  9. Study plan
  10. Due dates
  11. Challenging
  12. Hard work
  13. Having fun
  14. Learning
  15. Exited
  16. Classmates

AW00 – Introduction – LT. The Journey Here

I have always been creative, but It’s been a big roller coaster the last years. There have been times there I don’t feel creative at all and sometimes that I wish that I had more than 24 hours in a day. I remember I used to sit at my grandmas and colored in color books and did big puzzles, when I look in those color books, I must say it’s looking a lot better than my siblings and cousins ‘colorings. My other grandma taught me to crochet when I was little, and a few years ago I decided to try this out again. I got surprised how easy it was to learn again, it felt like I never had been without it.

In primary school and middle school, I loved the art and craft classes, those was the best classes I had. That was mostly because I have never been that good in theory, I’m more a practical person.

When I was 16 I started on high school, nature management school. I didn’t had good enough grades to get in to hairdresser school so I started study something that I love, nature and animals. But to be completely honest I took a type of birth control pills that made me sick, I was nauseous all the time and didn’t feel well. So I missed a lot of classes and when we finally found out the reason why I was like that I already was so far behind, I wouldn’t be able to work my self back. So I decided to dropped out and started to work.

After a few years working I applied to a private school to become a hairdresser. But I didn’t get in on the first year, so meanwhile I become a makeup artist. The plan was to use that when I was a hairdresser. Then I finished the hairdresser school and started as an apprentice, but it didn’t take long until I found out that this wasn’t for me. I’m not that comfortable to stand so close with customers for hours and hours.

After I turned down my apprentice position I started to working with retailing, I’ve almost 8 years’ experience with retailing and for the last 4 years I’ve been working in a sport store. But I’ve always felt that there is something that is missing in my life, and I’m 100% sure that that is being able to be creative in my work. I want to have a job that I love, that I can use my head more than just sell clothes.

My BIG passion in life is photography, I’ve owned a professional camera for probably 5 years or more know. I love taking landscape photos, especially long exposure photos along the coastlines. But I also love taking photos of my dogs and I’m planning to by a huge tele lens so I can start doing some wildlife as well. I have two instagram accounts, one for my landscape and one for my dogs. norwegiansurroundings/norwegianwanderers

So the reason I applied on Graphic Design is just that, I want to be creative. I want to learn how to communicate through visibility. I want to learn more about photography, designs, colors, arts and forms. I want to have a job that I will love! A job that makes me wanting to get out of bed and go to work.

And here is my version of a self portrait of myself. It shows who I am. I’m usually always behind my camera, and I always have the dogs by my side.
