We feel lonely, sometimes to the point of tears, but we don’t let those tears come because we are not supposed to cry. Or how we feel a surge of love for a partner but we don’t say anything because we’re frozen with the fear of what those words might do to the relationship.

National Day Parade 2010!! We were so excited to go. I was really happy when Cheuk Cheuk called and asked me if we wanted to go! cos i was so bz this year that i forgot to bid for the tix online! wot a bummer!
The tote bag this year! I love the stars!
Theres a total of 7 designs in total but only 5 were given to the public the other 2 designs i supposed are VIP bags cos they are more multi coloured. The theme this year is Live our dreams, Fly our flag!
The most interesting item in the bag is this Fun Box! can you guess wot is in it?
A little messy cos of all the knocking and stuff, they have food and drinks, face tattoo, badge and even a trash bag inside the box for us to throw our trash! how thoughtful! we wanted to put on the face tattoo but it was drizzling that day so we didn't wanna smear it =)
Me and bestie in our poncho and Singa the lion! =)
The parade started slightly after six and we were asked to stand up and participate! This ah ma in front of us is so enthusiastic so much so that her activeness puts us to shame!
In spite of the slight drizzle, the parade started to form up! This year, the parade segment is definitely longer than the fun segment. There were plenty of aerial display but no black knights. If i didn't remember wrongly, Dennis mentioned that the cost to upkeep the black knight is to high to justify. There was also a mega display of all the land vehicles including portable loos and washing machine. pretty amazing =)
At 830, all the performers came out again for our pledge and national song again forming a human flag with the red, white, acrylic crescent and stars =) Kit Chan is back this year to perform her very melodious rendition of 家. =) Do remember to catch the NDP 2010 on TV this year! =)
