A mandala is an ancient design first made in Tibet 2,000 years ago. People use mandalas to represent who they are and what they like. Tibetans would use mandalas to calm themselves and to think about the meaning of live. Mandalas are drawn in the shape of of a circle and people draw their symbols in each part of the circle.
My first symbol is a heart and a music note. I chose these symbols because it represents my love for music. I colored the heart different colors because it represents that music gives me hope and it also represents that I like a large variety of music.
My second symbol is of different types of books, magazines and notebooks. I chose these symbols because it shows that I like to read and write. I drew mostly books because i like to read longer chapter books and i don’t usually write stories unless I think of something to write about and I like the idea.
My third symbol is of a tree. I drew this symbol because i like to go outside a lot and climb or sit down next to a tree. I usually go outside to clear my head, to listen to music, or to read. Being outside and breathing in fresh air calms me down and sort of relaxes me in a way. I also like how nature could look sometimes and how beautiful it is. I don’t like camping or anything like that, but i just like taking walks in parks or on the beach during the summer because it’s nice and calm.
My fourth symbol is of a computer and a camera. I chose these two symbols because I like to go on websites that have pictures and I like to take pictures of things that I like. I usually take pictures of things I see when I’m walking outside, my friends, friends pets or my pets, and of other random things. I also like looking at other peoples photos so I could see what they like taking pictures of.
My fifth symbol is of the theater masks. I used that symbol because I’ve always wanted to be an actor even though I’m shy. I just always been interested in that business
