National Day!!! 09/08/07





Today is our Nation's 42th birthday!!

"Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to you,
Happy birthday to Singapore,
Happy birthday to YOU!!!"

My day started really late. I slept all the way to about 1 plus in the afternoon. After I got awoke, I went online to check to see if the post office is opened since today is a public holiday. Learnt that it is not opened so I quickly smsed my buyer that I will only send him the stuff tomorrow. He agreeded and I think he is a reall easy going guy. = P

Was online all along before I went to collect my photos @ Jurong point. Haha... Before that, Susie called again. Great to hear that she is going to Taipei on the coming 16 on a 5 day 4 night visit. She asked if I would like to join her!! Er... considering that we only talked in the phone twice and have never met up before, I think she must be joking. Hee...

I shared with her a few pointers from my trip. Man... On a scale of 1 to 100, my "miss" for Taipei would be 101!!!
I wish her luck on her trip!

After collecting my photos @ Jurong Point, I went back to my house area to collect my Taiwan photos instead. Didn't realise that the shop is closed. I was told it would be opened. Well, wasted my trip. = ( And I wasted someone's trip too. It wasn't on intention k!
Haha...

Went to watch fireworks. The crowd was crazy!!! Witnessed something that caught my attention. I saw this family with a maid. The couple was walking way infront leaving the poor maid to push the pram through the impassable crowd. I kind of pity the maid and I can see that she is clearly unhappy with her chore at hand.

The fireworks made up for the waiting and having to shove my way to a nice spot. It was never as good as the year I was involved in NDP myself when I was still in army where the fireworks was just ahead of me, having zero obstruction what so ever.
Too bad I didn't have a camera then. Still, memories stay with one forever, just like the Taipei trip... Oops! Here it goes again. Haiz...

Plan for tomorrow:
1. Visit to post office
2. Collect photos
3. Swim
4. Settle TBC bank account
5. Meet Wj for dinner + pass him his gifts
6. Make specs
7. Do up the trip album

In summary, busy!!!
