For this personalised data story, we want to know a bit more about you! Start with a simple introduction: What is your name? What do you do? Where do you live? You can be as mysterious or as descriptive as you like!

Next, let’s try to add an image. Replace the image below with one that suits your identity.

Image caption
Next, comes the data part. We’ll guide you with an example of someone who works as a self-employed writer in Singapore.
Write a simple caption for your image. For example, the caption could be “Life as a writer means spending 90% of my time not writing. It’s all prep, I swear!”

Caption

We want to find some basic data about writers in Singapore. We went to Google to try to find some relevant numbers. We found some data on self-employed workers in Singapore from a report by the Ministry of Manpower.

We’re choosing to use an area chart here, which is a simple way to compare a change in quantities over time. You could also use a line or bar chart if you find relevant data for your occupation. You can personalise this chart based on your occupation, and change the styling.

First section's done. You’re doing great!

Insert a heading for this section. E.g. “How I Spend My Day”

In this section, we want to know how you typically spend your day. Use this first paragraph to give an overview of your day.

Next, we’re using a pie chart to illustrate how many hours a day someone spends on work, play, and rest. How can you figure this out? The good ol’ fashioned way—try and recall how you spend your 24 hours, for a period of a week. That’ll give you a sense of your typical day.

Replace the data and text below and make the chart your own.

Second section done. That’s two charts!

Insert a heading for this section.
E.g. “What Captures My Attention”

In this section, we want to get to know you via the photo album in your phone. You can tell a lot about a person from their photos!

Write a simple caption for your image. For example, the caption could be “My favourite memories.

Look at the photos you’ve taken in the past week. Find a way to sort them into 4 main categories, and then count how many photos are in that category each day. Use categories that feel meaningful to you—we’ve gone with Environment, Food, People and Random.

For our next chart, we’re using a stacked column bar chart to illustrate how many photos are in each category for each day of the week. Replace the data and text below so it’s personalised to you.

Insert a heading for this section.
E.g. “My Life Philosophy”
Insert quote of your personal motto that encapsulates how you live your life.
Insert your name here
