HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!!!! "we are Singapore, we are Singapore,
we will stand together, hear the lion roar~"
Ah, it's National Day today!!! And my first National Day away from Singapore. -sniff sniff- Ah, didn't realize it in the past, but how nice to be able to watch the parade every year, from the TV or at the stadium itself!!! The internet connection here sucks big time! Tried to watch the live online but the thingy is so damn choppy. (T^T)
Back in Singapore, everywhere is in red and white, deshoo? Can feel the national festival in the air right? Here, no one cares. Ah, so disappointed that there the Singapore Association didn't organize a Singaporean gathering today. At least we could at least celebrate the occasion ourselves and have fun! But weird.. instead the Malaysians are having a gathering at the recreation room today.
Somehow or rather, upon comparison, Singaporeans here are not as united as the Malaysians are. People here go about doing their own businesses, interacting with their own circle of people. On the other hand, Malaysians always have a massive gathering every now and then. The number of times I have seen Juliet and her friends chopping carrots, onions etc, doing the cooking for the "party". It's not alot, countable on both hands but compared to the Singaporeans........
Ahhh~~~~~~!!!! Really envious of them everytime I see them, a whole bunch of people cooking in our flat. (T^T)
Anyway, at least I'll be back for X'mas! When that time comes, let's enjoy the X'mas atmosphere ne! (thinking abit far off liao)
To all Singaporeans in the world: Happy National Day~!
