In class, there was an assignment to design a personal logo about ourselves and our personality. We had to brainstorm about ourselves first and then using ten of our personality traits, we were to find symbols related to each personality trait and draw them. After this we had to research on interesting logos and analyze them to get some ideas on what we could do for the logo. Finally we had to experiment and draw 20 logos that we may be able to choose from and at the end we had to choose one of them and draw in them in a 6 x 6 cm box. We also had to analyze our own logo at the very end.
First I went through all of my traits and chose: fierce (fire), freedom (bird), knowledge (eye), spontaneity(lightning), sister, female (girl sign), protectiveness (shield), happy (sun), hardworking (hammer) and creative (lightbulb).
I tried symbolism using butterflies, flowers, pens but it never really worked until I found the combination of lightning and fire. I made many variations of it; a bird on fire, an infinity symbol a heart at one end, a eye where the pupil was encased in fire and shot lightning, a mouth breathing fire with a touch of lightning, a camp fire with lightning striking it, a sword etched with lightning which had tendrils of fire licking it, different more sophisticated versions of the first one and finally the shield with fire and lightning embossed on it.
I found this related to me the most. The fire represents the courage, anger and passion within me. It also represents a new beginning which, for me, comes with every morning. It's a deep color to show how much it is a part of me. The lightning bolts represent my spontaneity. I can be very random at times because I like to surprise people. It's black color shows that it is a very significant part of me due to the contrast of black and white. They also represent Harry Potter and I am a very big fan of Harry Potter. The curved pointed blade (triangle) along with the shield symbolizes how protective I am of mine. The curvy CJ is a personal initials signature that I use sometimes.

I like how you want to put what you like as your logo. I think your logo is unique and nice. Just by looking at your logo i know how much you love fiction, action-base fiction, greek mythology nd fan-fiction. The way you use the shape other than the shape square, I think it makes your logo unique and different from other people's logo.
