ndp07 - the largest human national flag ; Friday, August 10, 2007 00:20
happy birthday singapore!
we were late. ok i was. met terence at dhoby ghaut control. went to ps to eat lunch. had burger king. and we ended up reaching raffles place mrt 2+. everyone had left, so we made our way to the padang ourselves. it was damn crowded. waited for more than an hour before being allowed in.
tp wasn't together at all. our engine was scattered everywhere, it and as found themselves totally isolated and our student leaders ended up camping together in one line. only business could be seen bundled up. terence sat in front of me, and we found ourselves sitting beside the business school. lets not go into it but i found the girl seating beside terence nice! she helped me change the colour of my zipper ndp bag. (:
honestly, i thought we had to stand from 1700-1930. luckily, we only did for a mere 30 mins. and to say, we found our way into the book of records for the largest human singapore flag. congrats young ntuc! thanks for this wonderful day.
we shifted positions to the it area when we were dismissed, coz terence wanted to find his friend. watched the whole show at the padang, and got a live view of the fireworks, which were just beside us. i never once thought of going to the padang to catch the fireworks.
this year's ndp was at marina bay, on the floating parade just off the esplanade. our national stadium was undergoing redevelopment to become a sports hub. something different, for a change. fireworks was nice! (:
if my mind was more carefree today, i'd really have enjoyed myself. unfortunately throughout the whole day, i was thinking about wrtoral, about my speech on friday. now im back home, i've got to rush everything out. hope my speech goes smoothly tomorrow, and i'll be free!
