yesterday's school's national day celebration was ...
firstly was the parade. having been a participant before, i know how hard it was and how much sweat and blood they have put in, hours under the hot sun. marching around the track just to perfect all the nitty gritty stuff. so i wont really comment on the lacklustre performance ._. at least no one fell out. which was quite good.
what was really =/=/=/ was the fact that the MILITARY BAND decided to take the easy way out and decided to be a SYMPHONIC band instead and sat at one tiny little corner at the school field playing their instruments comfortably on their seats. to avoid repeating their yearly ritual of dropping maces perhaps =x
and to show how high-tech and ahead of time we are, even the parade commander was fitted with a mike. which really marred the grandeur effect of a parade =/ and he didnt really do a good job even with the mike, like no cautionary tone etc just plain do-it-for-the-sake-of-doing-it shouting.
was filled with immense gratification amongst other feelings that cannot be put into words when i walked past the sec1s (now sec 2s), hence was quite speechless, dunno/nothing to say. and to be honest their performance was quite good. or maybe im just biased hahaha.
didnt really paid much attention , much to my regret, to the college performance cause i expected it to be the same fanfare as highschool. heard they were quite funny. i only stood up to see once in a while/ waved the freebie flag frenziedly every now and then hahaaha. but participated in the song singing though hahaha.
afterwards was the usual class outing with the usual group of people doing usual stuff
wah damn lengthy post. skipping forward to sinming's visit today, don't really wanna comment =x
ooh National Day performance was quite nice, especially when you can see the jets zooming past your flat xD and i finally learnt the art of appreciating fireworks today. but the S fireworks were quite funny lol. the first one came out like a ? mark which reminded me about joker come to think about it. lol. and i think i like those BIG AND FLASHY and fizzy kinds (:
oh and

HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE!
