Singapore Turns 41

It's nearing the 9th Aug - Our Nation's Birthday.
Happy Birthday, Singapore! ^_^/

Sad to say, thou' it's a public holiday in Singapore on 9th Aug. I will have to go back to the office & work FULL DAY! *argh* On the bright side, I'll be staying behind after work with a couple of my colleagues to watch the beautiful fireworks go off @ Kallang right from our meeting room @ Centennial Tower. The view will be PERFECT!

Last Saturday, 29th July 06, I managed to get 4 tix to catch the National Day Parade (NDP) preview, LIVE! (Thanks Dajie!) It sure was great to be able to get a feel of the passion the people have for the country, and celebrate the Nation's success together! Deepsix felt super patriotic that day! *hee hee*

It's been 14 years since I watched the NDP LIVE @ the National Stadium. I still remember the last time I caught it LIVE was when I was 13 years old, and participated in the choir performance. *psst* ... it was a darn good place to meet those Ah Bing(1) Ge(1) aka Army Guys! *hahahaha*

Got Jo, KK & Lucus to come along to catch the NDP Preview. Thought it'll be fun to relive the memories from when we were 13 with Jo, and a great chance for KK to celebrate her recently received citizenship, and of cos', for Lucus, who loves crowds & parties!

Check out the crowd!

Weather was perfect and everyone wore red! The parade was filled with pretty colours and creative formations & dances!

We had a great time at the NDP preview! Time well spent indeed. Last but not least, we would like to say . . .

MAJULAH SINGAPURA!!!
