Majulah Singapura

Every week while grocery shopping, I allow myself one non-essential item which cannot be found in Singapore. This week, in celebration of NATIONAL DAY!! that item is...




Can't be found in Singapore.. In fact, can be found anywhere but Singapore.

I will be eating Singapore noodles tonight with other Singaporeans on exchange and we will all be dressed in red and white. Other patriotic things I will be doing include watching the NDP online and sending National Day e-cards to myself.

Check out this one:

The supposedly eurasian kid looks like my brother when he was a kid. (Hello Di happy national day ~whee!)

This one is cool too. It reminds me of a Civil Defence Ad.

If you get stuck at the second task it's cos you waited too long to move the buildings.

And this one takes the prize for most..erm..rousing:

Happy National Day to all Singaporeans, heartlanders and non-heartlanders, quitters and non-quitters, regardless of race, language or religion, and may you all be quick to take advantage of the $40 National Day Specials before next year, when the sale items will cost a dollar more.
