it feels so weird not spending national day at home, watching tv.
it seems just such a short while ago that mel, justin, fadhli, aizat,yiangshan, libing, jaryl and if i missed anyone out.. and i went to marina south for one of the parade in the heartlands. i rmb it was the new thing of last year's parade. that time. me and him .. haha i remember feeling so weird while we were all there. part of me was broken inside yet part of me was so excited to be celebrating national day with the rest of them. we watched the beautiful fireworks. together with you.. i wished that you could hold my hands while we enjoyed them burst in the sky. anyway.. hahas
we all got lost near shearess bridge.. ended up walking through this big patch of weeds and grass which were like knee high. felt so jungle trekking-ish lolx
this year, i wanna have he patriotic feeling but then .. there's no chance to. i miss singing those corny "i love singapore" national day songs. celebrating in cedar, dancing, being really enthu especially with my dearest gay weili !! and classmates like lijoon and huimin ! and zihui and sandra and ginny and jiahui and shalini and pearl and pingsiew and joleyn ... everyone.. it was just so fun then
and some part of me doesn't want things to change. but the other part of me that is growing up so much ever since i came to Melbourne tells me that i must be forward looking.
hmm it feels quite funny not wearing red and white to school today lolx.
we are one people one nation one singapore
thats the way that we will be forevermore
moments of magic we will share
this is HOME truly, where i know i must be, where my dreams wait for me, where the river always flows
this is home surely
ok i can't really remember the words. haha i remember cedar would make us actually PRACTICE national day songs a few weeks before the national day celebration during jogging period or reading period lolx
and last year was the coolest of all national days. i got to carry the cedar flag behind the singapore flag to bring up to be raised while the national anthem played. that was probably the most most guang rong (whats guang rong in english ??) oh ok that was my proudest moment in cedar i think. other than the leader's investitures where we got to perform items which were so memoriable to me lolx
suddenly so many memories come back to me. all the funny, sad, sweet memories. but overall a really great part of my life that i will keep with me always
now i'm trying to watch the fireworks on the web.
and i need to get back to my EAP ESSAY which is due tmr.
i realise my stressing out over the last essay didn't get me very high marks so now.. maybe i'm just going to relax. la la la
shoE was here with you at
