Though, I just wanna say that...I think I'm starting to have that little patriotic spark in me. Okay, you know how this year's NDP has 10 chapters in total right?
Oh, you don't?
Well, now you do. Talk about learning something new every day huh?
Anyways, there's this particular chapter - chapter 4 - where there will be a sort of musical showcase of the different cultures in Singapore and the different art forms unique to them. As expected, many of your iconic national songs will be playing, but there's this particular one - not so much national as it is culturally-specific - and it's called 'Rasa Sayang'.
Ring a bell? I bet it sounds a damn orchestra in there huh?
About this song...it's just that, everytime I take a look at that segment of the show, without fail, a surge of emotion just swells up in my chest upon hearing it. I won't deny that it actually almost made me tear up once. It's just incredible, our culture. I guess no matter what a mish-mash of different races we are, there might just be something unique about us Singaporeans as one people after all.
On an unrelated note, I've been having sessions with my personal trainer lately. Just got back from my 3rd one today. I must say, looking at myself, California Fitness can be a pretty depressing place at times, if you is getting what I is saying. But then again, the eye candy there ALWAYS takes the mind of the flab. And there be plenty of candy in the jar too. Eh, eh?
TWO MORE DAYS PEOPLE. COUNT THAT SHIT DOWNNN.
