My laptop is still on the service center so I'm online via internet cafe. But since I'm currently on my parents' house, I'm online for longer time and I decided to finally decide the winners in my Confessions challenge. BTW, my laptop may be returned this week so I'll take the opportunity to make more edits and be productive this summer. I'll be giving prizes :D
I'm judging not only the visual quality of the card but also the confession itself. I've taken enough time to judge every card. And these three have the best of both worlds.
3RD PLACE: [not] all right. by Angel Zakuro
"Everything isn't all right. I may do my best to put on a happy face and help others all the time, but sometimes I think I need to help myself more. I'm just not very good at it. I've gotten too used to being put down, being told I'm selfish if I ever do something I want to do for once." A simple card with a confession that everyone can relate with: pretending you're alright when you're not.
2ND PLACE: a CentiMetEr to the [leFt] by CleaversForKids
"I have obsessive compulsive tendencies, that cause me to have trouble concentrating if I consider something near me to be askew. I also have trouble with germs and other organizational issues. I am a perfectionist, but I won't let it take over my life." I believe every person has a perfectionist trait in certain situation. For me, I'm a perfectionist when it comes to my own art. I also have this organizational issues that drives me crazy at times.
1ST PLACE: One of a Kind by Konichi
"I get kind of sad knowing I have Aspergers because I know I'm not like everyone else. I have problems with socializing with other people, I can't handle certain situations well, I get bad anxiety, I can't tell if someone is being sarcastic, and many other things that are hard on me. I didn't know how to interact with other children, and I was teased because I was different. Despite not liking my Aspergers I accept it because it makes me who I am. I like being different. I'm unique and I'm one of a kind. I'm original." The design is very simple but spunky. And the best part was the confession itself. I can relate with this a little. I don't have autism but a lot of my elementary schoolmates think that I do. I was teased for being childish and hyper at times. They think I was crazy that I should be in a mental hospital or something. That's why on high school I was trying to act a little mature. But in the end, I'm happy with being who I am. I'm more comfortable in acting weird. I was more happy when I went to college and met more crazy and weird friends. And obviously, birds of the same feathers... are the same birds. :)))
