Amazing haha... Who'd have thought that after almost a decade, I would meet a primary school friend in Medicine, one whom I had almost never talked to or gotten to know (mostly on account that both of us were quite quiet) in the one year we were in the same class.

Nevertheless, it was nice to meet you again Ying Hui! (And man... I apparently haven't changed physically since primary school, other than growing maybe haha)

Have been watching many videos on Youtube these few days. Attempted to find some of those National Day Song MVs. So far have found "We are Singapore", "Count on me", "One united people" and etc... There don't seem to be any of the obscure ones which are still quite nice like "Who are you my country" and all =/ But its a good start =D

I want to find the one for "Count on me Singapore" which has the teacher asking the students what they want to be next time (as mentioned in last year's post)!! That's such a touching vid! And it must exist somewhere! If "Silence is Golden" can turn out to be real, I'm sure this video is not a figment of my imagination!

Also came across our farewell assembly video, which I watched again haha... The clips of orientation brought back such nice memories, all the more because I'm still in the orientation stage (more or less) of university haha.. Like how the first day was so sian but by the time we came to sea regatta we were finding every excuse to cheer haha...

National Day was pretty eventful. Went to town to look for dnd stuff with Lakota people... And my attitude to shopping hasn't changed since I went with Soo Yee, Evelyn and Wei Quan last time haha... But it was a good change to get out of the house instead of staying and playing computer. Then I missed the first part of NDP cos I thought the parade started at 6.30, not 6.15! grrrrr... Missed the march-in and the bits which Xuan Cheng loved to imitate the most (PAN-DAN! KE-HA-DA-PAN! PANNNNNNNNN-DAN!) last time.

But this year was sooooo good!!! Especially the fly past by the helos during the National Anthem, and the display after the parade segment! And we all loved the little children from Clementi Primary School who were waving at the camera instead of dancing =D The starfish were especially adorable hahah... Oh looks like this year St. John and Red Cross had their own individual contingents instead of combining together.

Oh well, another memorable NDP to be picked over by Wei Lun and I haha... Shall stop here. One day to rag day! And happy birthday Liling!
