National Day Itself

Spent National Day itself at other people's house. First up spent at the kids house. Uncle K and their mum were doing the cooking so we just go there to eat. ;) Yummy food man...we had sweet sour fish, black pepper prawns, Oats prawns, Chicken masak merah, fried chicken, nasi briyani.....such funny food combination but we just eat!!!

The highlight of the day was the visit to Mrs Mara's condominium at Novena. She lived on the 24th storey and the view was just.....WOW!! Was very excited cos heard lots of wonderful things bout her place. The sceneric view was very nice. You can see everything from there (ok lah maybe not everything lah). We can see the CDB area (our fav place), the esplanade, toa payoh, pasir ris (at least the outline of the flats). While watching the parade (on tv), we get to see the helicopters flying past with the national flag LIVE, the parachuters dropping from the sky LIVE and the different planes flying past LIVE! But the best thing was of course the fireworks!!! Although the ambience is different but somehow its a nice change from the usual crowded ambience.

Then yest went to Geylang to look for my baju for the 'thingy' in sept. Went with Soul, my mum, Cik Ras and Cik Salleh. Got a bit of a headache initially cos my mum and Cik Ras and ME have different taste. So we went to so many different shops, trying out different costumes. We finally went to Joo Chiat and the first shop we went in I tried out 2 sets of costumes and finally all os us agreed on something. It is a bit $XXX but its worth it!!!

So excited both me and Soul.
