Comments (0) 11 year old these days speaks and express themselves very well these days. If you don’t believe me, watch the video below that shows a group of Primary 5 students who attended NDP NE Show recently and was interviewed by the organizer. In my opinion, it was good entertainment, really dramatic, I think more drama than anyone of us and he speaks really well. Oh by the way, he is quite an attention seeker, kept waving to the camera.
Singapore will be celebrating her 44th birthday this Sunday at Marina Bay. Every year, there will be a local singer or band selected to sing the theme song. This year, Electrico was selected and actually, I don’t really know this local band at all and just knew that they were a 4 piece band previously.
Each year, there will be a English and Chinese version for the theme song and of course it meant that there will be 2 videos (1 in English and 1 in Chinese). Kelvin Tan is singing the Chinese version this year, but the weird thing is, he is nowhere in sight in the video. In the Chinese version, its still Electrico singing in English, dubbed in Chinese (if you know what I mean).
It has been some time since I last shared offers with everyone. This time, I’m sharing with everyone Ya Kun discount, download the coupon, print it and use it.
I was just trying to see if I was lucky enough to be one of the 50 who will be selected to attend NDP Combined Rehearsal 2, and true enough, I was selected. I was so looking forward to attend the event and watch the parade, but due to work commitment, I’ve got to turn down the offer.
The Facebook message (above) was sent to me from the organizer.
Frankly speaking, I find this year’s NDP committee to be really engaging, maybe because they are using new media to reach out to every Singaporean, and was surprised to find them updating real time on the on-going activities for combined rehearsal 1 on Twitter. I think this is something that other national event can consider doing.
During the Amazing Race on Tuesday, I happened to come across the rehearsals for NDP 2009. This time, they were rehearsing 21 gun salute on a floating platform. When I saw it, I could only think that it is really impressive. It was just so close to everyone watching it and luckily I’ve got my camera with me, so I quickly took some time to snap some pictures of it.
By the way, I managed to submit my application for the balloting of NDP tickets, wish me luck.
