Read on if you like, but you might not get it.. blah blah blah
Eh, I have been banned from some things, or to be more specfic, banned from two things.
1. Mentioning the four-letter-F-word.
2. Drinking. (not that I EVEN drink these days..)
I guess it's true.. Everyone needs restrictions..
*ahem*
Anyway, did I mention that I went to the National Day Parade preview last week? haha.
So I went there with one of my better friends. I went with BS.
I was just telling him the day before that it says on the ticket "you are encouraged to wear RED." But on the actual day itself, I realised that I didn't have any red shirt! But I thought that since he wasn't going to wear red, I'll just wear white. So that was the colour of my top that day.
So anyway, we were supposed to meet at 2 at City Hall MRT control station. But... I was late.. And when I reached there, I realised he wore RED. hahaha.. After the huge fuss he made the day before! He still wore RED. So we walked around Suntec for a while till we decided it's time we get going to our seats.
The security for the NDP this year is really tight! You know how it's like at the airport? They make you empty your pockets and scan EVERYTHING through some X-ray machine? And they'll use a mental detector to check if you have any hiden metal objects on you? That's what they did to everyone (I think) at this year's NDP. But hey, that's good right.
And we went to collect our goodie bags after passing the security check. Correct me if I'm wrong but normally at the NDP they'll just have goodie bags of only ONE colour but at this year's NDP, they had goodie bags with SIX different colours! The colours are blue, green, orange, purple, red and yellow. And we get to choose whichever coulour we want. Ya! The guy in charge of the bags ( I don't know how I should address them) will ask you "which colour you want?" Cool eh.. So, I wanted to get green at first cause green is my new favourite colour. But SOMEBODY who told me he wanted ORANGE told that guy he wants GREEN. -.- So when I said green, that guy said "Green again? You sure?" I think it goes without saying that I got another colour instead. I got blue. -.- But it's a nice shade of blue.
The NDP this year is by far the best out of all the NDPs I've attended. You know that this year's NDP is at Marina Bay. And the fact that the show's on a floating platform. What I want to say is this year's show is really good. They really make use of the elements surrounding the platform. And the fireworks is spectacular, as usual.
So you guys must watch the NDP this year!!! If you read this entry AFTER the actual day, then at least try to catch the repeat telecast of it. But I'm afraid that watching it on tele won't be as good as watching it LIVE. Which is why I encourage you to head down to city hall on the actual day, at least for the fireworks..
Do you see the words "NDP 07"?
Pretty Fireworks! (:
On a separate note, guess "who" I saw when I went to collect my "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows"?
Hagrid look-a-like!!!
This happened at white sands. Popular, White Sands actually got someone to dress up as Hagrid!
The only thing is that the real Hagrid doesn't even wear glasses. Pity.
P.S. The NDP tickets was from Bai Yi. Thanks Bai Yi!
P.P.S. I realised that I would prefer the blue goodie bag rather than the green one.
P.P.P.S. I love Singapore!
P.P.P.P.S. Sorry for the lack of photos. I'll take more next time. Promise!
P.P.P.P.P.S. Excuse my lousy english, I never said it's any good.
P.P.P.P.P.P.S. I love adding postscript! (:
Proud to be Singaporean!!! (:
