Approach/
This journal documents my weekly routine and the ups and downs of my final semester at grad school. Besides the pressure from schoolwork, the severe eye condition also accelerates my overall anxiety. I used blue and yellow to signify my happy and negative mood. The distorted typography and the torn-edge textures convey an anxious and overwhelmed feeling. The illustration line helps to portray my anxiety levels.
