At the first glance learning the pen tool, or illustrator in a broader sense for this matter is not really fulfilling, in fact, honestly, very frustrating. First time users of the pen tool will be amazed by the exciting figures, shapes he could create with every drag and clicks of his mouse but discouraging and frustrating on the other side of the argument in the sense that though it could create some images, but those images, are images which  starting enthusiasts would not want to create in the first place.He wanted to draw something but the pen tool is making something else, very horrible and exasperating.

However, as time passed by, when the artist gained control of the pen tool, meaning the shapes and figures that resulted on every move and stroke of the pen tool is what he intended them to be, it is on this point that one realized a fool he was, had he not continued taming the pen tool.

TRACED IMAGE SILHOUETTE 

On the project, I do not wanted to be biased about it. There are still some imperfections, which  I need to address by more practice, nevertheless, I believe the image on the silhouette is real me. My daughter took this picture and I placed it in Photoshop and saved as 72dpi, jpg image, then placed it in Illustrator and locked layer and used this as a template. I traced the silhouette of my photo and added the text "iSwear" 
to it.

I swear, the Pen tool wont wear one down as it first appears to be.
