national day celebration

national day celebration

I think this is the first and last time in my whole schooling year that I was so ‘involved’ in the national day. Haha

Our class was selected to be the class in charge to present the re-collection. The one where people recite the hardships that Singapore has went through.

For the last 8 years or so of my schooling career, I have never known the contents of the re-collection. But this year, I have no choice as I have to recite it.

When I reached so, I started rushing through all the homework that needs to be handed in that day. It is so absurd that we have to hand in homework on the day when we are supposed to be celebrating the nation’s holiday!

The whole class was just standing in one line trying to complete the homewok. I wished I had time to take a photo of it, it would be quite a funny shot.

After that the class leaders gave out the class identity. It was a red cloth and we had to tie it on our head. It is quite interesting to see the guys tie it. They looked like they are all geared up for a fight!

Haha, the people in my class keeps asking me if I was born in the correct era, they said that I looked so retro with that red headband. It that a compliment or an insult I wonder.. haha.

Anyway, it soon came to the time when we have to recite the national day recollection. From the platform, I could see that not many were paying attention. I think those paying attention are those who knows people from our class. Haha.

After the whole celebration, my class went on a class outing! Somehow, we keep getting lost when we are looking for the place, or we always get off at the wrong stop. So we ended up walking a lot! But it was a fun trail, we were singing national songs and Christmas songs! I really really hoped that Christmas would come soon!

Joy to the world the angels sing.. haha

Anyway for now, happy early birthday Singapore!
