National Day

I was thinking of some abstract kind of title but heck it, it's National Day. So happy national day!

For once. I watched NDP all the way from the start all the way to it's end. I got to say, I was impressed how lamely it started. But eventually it went quite professionally and smoothly. One word to describe it-sleek. For once in nineteen years, I finally could sit down and watch the parade before the Z monster attacks me because I can roughly understand what was going on. And I have to admit the uniform groups marching in NDP kinda looked grossly irrelevant.

And there was the highlight of this year's NDP. the presidential gun salute where artillery was mounted on our M3G rigs/floating platform. I was so appalled when the commentator never mentioned one bit of the M3G floating platforms. Everyone is like gaga over whatever shit that produces those big boom bang poofs into the air but no one ever wondered whats underneath those heavy bulky pieces of gun.

The music was so bad this year. (though I don't have anything to compare with since I rarely watch NDP) They like to use chopped up fragments of a variety of national day songs into one long song. Rojak can taste nice, but doing this to the music this is like so wrong. It sounds constipated, sounds so wrong, sounds so violated. C'mon, there's no buffet in music. The theme song is beyond horrible. A chanting melody, wait, there isn't even a distinct melodic line, or even a chorus. Thrash!

And yes! I said the pledge. The national day songs are actually quite nice. In fact, memories from various route marches whereby we sang NDP songs surfaced. Though how lame it might seem to say, that I think, I think I love Singapore.

(and I'll probably take back my words when I go back on public road driving on Tuesday again)

The weather is kinda stuffy today. I spent yesterday and today goofing around at home without much in mind. A wanderer's life, how random! Been quite emo on and off recently, for no apparent reason. Life can be quite meaningless without nothing meaningful. Wait, that goes without saying.

I'm dehydrating now.

I failed my 1st driving test (military class 3) by making a retarded wrong turn in the CIRCUIT (I never made it to public road) by going against the flow of traffic. Sadly, a stupid mistake which I ought to be whacked in the head for. But this degree of stupidity cannot beat my dear beloved wen guang who failed because he never turn on his headlights.

Awww. Before I dehydrate into nothingness. I should get some water down my throat. Bye
