To commemorate the upcoming national day celebrations - This is a pic of WatermelonGal's patriotic platter of fruit from last year's farewell party for C+C Lawyer Factory.

I love National Day. When I was a kid, I thought We Are Singapore was the best ever national day anthem. Then again it could have been the pretty cute guy they got to sing the opening lines in the premiering video.

Was thinking it would be fun to do a National Day Celebration Party. We can dress up as our favourite Local Symbols/Stereotypes - Merlion, Singapore Idol, saarabat stall uncle, prata man, mat rocker, trishaw rider, the old multi-tasking, harmonica-blowing busker who wears clogs, Sir Stamford RAffles, Rich-ACS-Boy, SmartyPantsRJCBoy, BrashConventGirl...the list of possibilities is endless.

We can eat all our favourite local dishes - da-pow from our favourite hawker centres. Play retro music again (haha) since it is about 40 years of celebrations. and for doorgifts, everybody gets a nice pack of erasers to play eraser game.

haha. which reminds me i once drew a set of cartoons about The MIsadventures of The Little Red Dot...about a snooty know-it-all little pea-sized dot who plays bureaucrat. must try and dig them up and post them in the spirit of coming August....
