| National Day Blues |
Hello folks, alright. its gonna be just a few more days to the day I leave Singapore. I spent the whole of Thursday night packing my luggage and trying to stuff my clothes into the bag. It was highly emo for me, because each piece of clothing I owned, reminds me of the days I hung out with various people.
And guess what made my morning (afternoon) worse, Today, I was in the study and I looked out at the balcony, and lo and behold, I saw the National Flag hanging proud and patriotic-ly, swaying to and fro. It made me really sad, to know that I'll be missing this year's NDP parade and all. To me, NDP is the zone, and the time when my family organizes the annual Yue National Day Bash.
The fireworks, the buzz, the madness and chaos that happens on National day. Of course, not forgetting my darling Rah's birthday falls on that very date. I remember clearly during one year, Yum and I were feeling retarded and cheeky. So when Rah picked up this phone this is what happened.
(ring ring...Ring ring....)
Rah: Hello?
Yum and Jillian: (silent)
Rah: Hello?
(Jillian hurriedly clicked play on her computer...)
(*The national anthem started to play
Drum roll...DENG DENG DENG DENG DENG DENG DENG DENG...!!! Mari Kit Ta...)
Rah: What the fuck!?!!
Yum and Jillian: HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAH!!! HAPPY BIRTHDAY RAH!
(Tanya enters the phone conference...)
Tanya: Hello Sarah! Happy Birthday!!!!
(Jillian and Yum still laughing like crazy.)
Tanya: What happened?!
(Jillian tells the story.. and the conversation continues)
OMG I'll so miss Singapore and its people to death. : ( : ( : (
So, its just 7 days and counting. Fuck.Labels: NDP |
