Pre-National Birthday Celebration

Thanks to Dear who managed to get free tickets for the preview of National Day Parade, I got to watch NDP Live for the first time in my life!!!!!! *whistle*

Mark Lee. Apparently, he hadn't memorise his script.



Why their mouths open big big?

It's the Red Lions!



Mischievous Apache which splashed water at the audience@Merlion




Beautiful sunset...Pink...I like~~~

The Parade...Nice stage setup...

The Union of 2 Hearts..Tsk tsk...

The Giant Paper Boat which carried 4 Giant Puppets.

One of the giants i.e. the Ma Jie

The wall on the stage transformed! Each hole had a dancer in it!

They even had pole dancing. Wee Wee!

Check out the abseiling on the wall!

The Finale

There goes our bonus.... =....(

This year's NDP is rather interesting and different from the past as it is rather similar to a musical. Lotsa pop music and PINK, apart from the usual displays of the armed forces. Very entertaining. The only drawback about such rehearsals was that the MCs had to refer to their scripts and the main performing artistes such as Chen Wei Lian and Electrico were not present. Staffs carrying their name boards stood in their place instead. One of them even pretended that he was Electrico and was strumming air guitar. Talk about self-indulgence.


However, there was a person whom we must applaud to during the show.

She remained seated during the ENTIRE preview. Even when the anthem was played and when we were reciting the pledge. Wondered why she was there in the first place. Might as well stay home and watch your TV la, Auntie! Even the Ang Moh beside me had the courtesy to show some respect to our country. PUI!

Anyway, we then had our dinner at Brotzeit, Raffles City.
