Ba Gua

Ba Gua?

Not the BBQ pork, but

The 八卦; bā guà (literally "eight symbols") is a fundamental philosophical concept in ancient China. It is generally represented with an octagonal diagram with one trigram on each side. The concept of bagua is applied not only to Chinese Taoist thought and the I Ching, but is also used in other domains of Chinese culture, such as fengshui, martial arts and navigation.

Basically, today, my creative concept lesson plays around with ba gua. And...

Create an artwork that evokes a similar emotion to what you felt when looking at the artwork assigned to your team (in the pre-trigger). Allow the ba gua to make some of the decisions about the work for you.

My team's emotion is love and we really think so crazy, end up we came out with an idea...

The guy lying down on the grass is me... = )

Hmm, I think so far, this is the most creative thing I did for a lesson!! Hehe!! Hoorays to my team, Jarrett, Hui Min, Sharina and Shikin..

Actually, for the past 2 days, things happening around me really told me...

I should appreciate that I am living in this world.

As you guys know, a woman was dead after got hit by a fallen tree at Bt Batok Nature Park. Today, I saw a dead body at Bt Batok Central on the way to school. I was inside the bus when I saw a dead body. It was indeed scary yet makes me think that life is fragile. You can never know your last day.

Then yesterday, I was having a bad back ache. I realise the pain I suffered cannot be compared with someone who is suffering from long term illness.

Sometimes, I also feel that my chest is pain...

Are my days numbering? I don't know....

But I told myself, even I should die anytime, I would want to see....

My family members chanting Nam-myoho-renge-kyo, believe in Nichiren Shoshu Buddhism.

Hope to see Pei Han living happily...and hope to see my friends live happily.

In this way, I can leave happily....

Okay, I guess, now I am worried is, PP la!! How???

Diao...hmm..end here though = )
