This week was a good breather from school. Actually its more of not being in school but I'M still doing school work. Today I think im gonna pull of a hikikomori. On Monday I really thought I was falling sick coz my nose suddenly decided to be emo and yea nasal problems all the way till Wed. I already have a sinus problem and to add on to that the haze is really choking me. Maybe to some people who don't have much of this problem and will carry on living life coz they can live with it.I felt like haze really hinders our vision, suffocates and chokes us. Some of us will complain about it. Some will just carry on living mentioning about its existance but continue living trying to ignoring it. But the fact is we can't coz the haze is here and so what can we really do about it? We cant really make it dissapear. Its a good wake up call for Singapore in a way coz if not we won't really stop to think. Mr. Brown's take on how the haze makes him feel. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KpyNtFN-tG0 For me, I thought about this analogy. Haze used as a metaphor for a person's sin against God. Sometimes when life is good, we think we don't really have any sin to deal with; there's no problem at all. We may not see it around as clearly but when we do we can identify what sin it is and there's no way of hiding it. It chokes us often making us feel sick and terrible. Some people may continue to live on with life ignoring it or not dealing with the fact that it's there. It made me think of what are some areas in my life right now are choking me that I'm not dealing with.
urgh talk about dealing with it...I don't know why I don't feel motivated to do anything right now other than to blog about how I can't get myself to do my fyp. Well amazing thing is recently I've been meeting more and more Chrisitans in the creative industry. Yesterday, initially I wasn't planning to go for Sam's Table for one exhibition but it was seriously a great time of meeting and catching up with people whom I haven't seen in a while...well I really enjoyed Sam's works. It was couragous, bold and yet honest and transparent of her to display her works. I guess that's the thing with artists. Sometimes we may present ourselves in a way thats not directly related to us in our works but I think the most fufilling ones that really give you contentment is the ones that you can come to terms with. Be it a struggle or a major event in your life. When its really personal the works also becomes a refelection of yourself. Most people and relate and understand what its like to be eating dinner alone in a restaurant. To some maybe they were caught in wanting to have a "me-time alone" away from people or they are just eating alone coz no friends avaiable that night for a meal, no bf or gf, etc... some find it a sensitive issue to talk about. where others just really need that time alone. I can relate to that. The whole point of creating art is to be inclusive. Why create an art work where no one else can relate to? Sam's blog for A Table for One http://tableforonesg.wordpress.com/
Well I was there since 4pm so I made good use of it. I introduced myself to David who's one of the few guys who were involved in starting the business FFT and I really felt that it was a great opportunity to get to know all these people at one shot. Then, today I made a phone call to The little Drom Store and got to know Antoinette. Last night I saw their postcard designs at FFT which really spoke to me. The design and the exectution.
Donna was supposed to get back to me since Wed this week but still no reply:( sigh... Well Ive been telling myself this, but I'll do it I again. Its really time for me to just be still before God and to stop asking so many people about what they think and first be alone with God to hear what He's telling me. coz ultimately that's what really matters. After all this project is about Him. I'd like to believe that God determined and intended me to be there at FFT to be able to speak to these people like how it says here in Acts.
Acts 17:26 From one man he made every nation of men, that they should inhabit the whole earth; and he determined the times set for them and the exact places where they should live.
Ah well... Its really exciting to see how things are moving...slowly but surely getting somewhere. I can only hope.
