Happy Birthday Singapore!




Went out early morning to Marina Square to collect the NDP tickets from Wei Quan. Thanks for the tickets! :D

Came back home and ate lunch and went out at 2.45pm again to meet Chin Kuang to go for NDP 2009. It's my first time ever getting the chance to watch the NDP live at the floating platform! The feeling is definitely different from watching it on TV. The visual effects are cool! This year's funpack was interesting. I especially liked the heart shaped torchlight. Another thing is that we have successfully broke the Guinness World Record for the fastest Marina Wave! Lol. The show is divided into 10 chapters, showing us what Singapore went through in the last 44 years to have what she is today. Fireworks are always brilliant, including this year's. I'd watch the NDP live again should there be any chance!

After the parade went to meet Daniel, Chee Kit, Priscilla, Joel and Xiaohui for dinner and finally we headed home.



The cute drumstick with a bean at the end, but I lost it! =(


Still not very full when we reached the platform


But look at the other side!





BOMB threat!
