Sheepish

on second thoughts..just publish this private entry,
you know why...cause my sheep is too cute to boot!




In order to prevent this post to degenerate into some self-indulgent entry, and also because this picture encapsulates how i feel now, in cartoon prose, i decided to draw. That brown squidgy thing is not a bubble wrap, it is a metaphorical sheep, in a pink metaphorical snowglobe, surrounded by metaphorical grey fog, seeing metaphorical greener-grass-on-the-other-side, with metaphorical beady eyes. With such atrocious drwaing, it is always good to wax metaphor-ics, redeem some saving grace, and saving sanity.


Anyways, for lack of a better phrase. Lets call this, Sheep In the Fog, which not-so-coincidently is the title of a Plath poem which spoke to me ages ago. The title kind of sticks. So it just seems to me that people live in individual snowglobes, and once it gets shaken, the fog blurs the vision of the lost sheep within it. But the fog may not be in true existence. It could be the sheep's blurred sense of vision from within, and by virtue of reverse osmosis(lack of another better word), translates to haziness of actions and visions in real context, where actually the haziness came from within. So if you take it a bit further, it is questionable if the status quo is indeed shaken up or it's because the vision within is shaken. So it blurs the line between what is within the self and what is external to it.


Ironically, although the myopic sheep sees its current situation as a state of fog, but it sees everything outside the cosmic snowglobe to be picture perfect. Warped perception? Case of the greener grass in the other pasture. I have no point to make, basically.


On the other hand, I feel a great sense of satisfaction at work. We are in the midst of planning an event, which is on a pretty large scale, which looks pretty good on a PA report. Janice is a blessing really. Which is fantastic, but yet it is not possible to feel the polarity of an emo-psych all within a day, and to be exact, all within an hour?


It feels abit deranged and kinda strange.
