Hey friends, Welcome to my space! For my major learning project, I had to choose something to learn using online platforms. After thinking about all the interests that I have or had (and honestly, a little daydreaming), I knew exactly what I wanted to dive into and it’s DOODLING!!.

My Love Affair with Drawing (and Why Painting Failed Me)

I’ve always been that kid who loved drawing. School competitions? Count me in.  Sometimes I won, sometimes I lost, but my love for drawing never faded away. But here’s the funny part: painting and I were never best friends. I tried… oh, I tried. But the brush and I never clicked. It was time when I used to consider drawing means painting as well!

From Cells to Cycles: Drawing My Way Through Science

As I got older, my drawing shifted into something super practical. My notebooks and lab practical files were full of biology diagrams (heart, plant cell, animal cell), chemistry lab apparatus, water cycles… you name it. I poured my heart into them, not just because I had to, but because drawing genuinely made me happy.

Teacher Mode: Turning Chalkboards Into Canvases

When I became a teacher, my drawing didn’t disappear. In fact, it became part of my lessons! Instead of just talking, I drew simple, relatable sketches on the board. And guess what? My students loved it! Their smiles and excitement pushed me to keep using drawing as a teaching tool.

And let’s not forget the start of new school years — decorating classrooms and the main school boards. It used to be overwhelming though, but to be honest, I secretly loved those tasks because they gave me another reason to draw.

2023: My First Taste of Doodling 

In 2023, while making a school board, I unknowingly entered the world of doodling. At first, I thought it was just drawing. Later, after searching on Google Images, I realized—nope, doodling is a whole art form on its own! I instantly fell in love♥♥. It felt playful, creative, and a little addictive.

Fast Forward to 2025: Doodling With a Purpose

Life got busy, and doodling took a back seat. But last month, something magical happened. At my workplace, I doodled again with one of the kids who is autistic and loves doodling. It was such a wholesome, refreshing experience that reminded me how much I’ve missed it.

So when this course gave me the chance to pick a project, my heart screamed: Doodling!

My Big DΘΘdle Goals

Here’s what I want to do with this project:

• Dive into doodling tutorials online (probably YouTube, Pinterest, blogs).

• I might explore different styles — mandalas, lettering, tiny sketches.

• Practice consistently and see my progress over time.

• Reflect on doodling as both my personal stress-buster and professional secret weapon.

Why I’m Excited

I believe, doodling is more than just “random scribbles.” It’s a mix of art, learning, and fun. It’s something that connects me to my childhood love for drawing, my teaching style, and even my present learning journey.

So this is me, taking the leap into the doodle world. Stay tuned—my notebooks, margins, and maybe even my walls (Just Joking!! :D), might soon be filled with patterns, swirls, and little drawings that (hopefully!) tell a bigger story.
