Life | Happy 41st Singapore!
National Day Parade is the highlight of every birthday party Singapore celebrates.
My first attempt to get free NDP tickets via online bidding was unsuccessful, so like every year, I will be watching it live on TV with my family instead.
At least, my son had the chance to watch the preview as any Primary 5 and 6 students would get the opportunity to. He thoroughly enjoyed it. Not to mentioned the interesting goodies each person was given to use to participate in the celebration there, as well as taking it home.
Here's wishing Singapore
Happy 41st Birthday!

I didn't know that it has only been 41 years! We're almost as old as Singapore!

Hello Andrew,
Yes, Singapore is a young country with independence of only 41 years since 9 Aug 1965.
No! We are not old, we are almost as young as Singapore is.
Call it denial or heading for mid-life crisis... whatever, but that sounds much better to me.
Trivia For You:
1. Singapore is 15,000 times smaller than USA. Imagine how claustrophobic we are.
2. Singapore's highest natural point is Mount Faber at only 162m or 513ft. Forefathers should have named it Faber Hill instead.
Have a great weekend.
