8.22

The medley of songs this year was pretty awesome, i was jumping up and down waving my flag in front of the telly! Then 8.22PM came, where Singaporeans stopped to recite our pledge. The Pledge Moment almost brought me to tears.

Happy 44th birthday Singapore!

    love your red nails, Melly. confession: Kit Chan’s Home always makes me brim over with emotions.

    to answer your question about my shoes: the grey t-bar sandals are melissa jellies, iirc. i know – they do look vintage. it’s ironic, cos i bought them many years back, before i got into vintage clothing. the bonus is they’re super comfy.

    btw, i see softspoken on your blogroll. i’ve been meaning to ask if you got that pair of white shoes from her. i’m still commiserating my loss. it’s not meant to be :(

    ha ha!

    I regret giving a miss to the NDP this year. I love the medley of songs this year too! :) I have the tattoo on both my arms, thanks to my little brother. He told me SG rocks!

    Me teared at the finale! I feel so embarrassed! Swiftly swept me tears away with my sleeve. Don’t think anyone around me saw it.

    This year’s NDP totally rocked!
