TODAY IS ALSO NATIONAL DAY!!! WOOOOHOOO
Yesterday school was only half-day and we had our National Day Celebration. So damn fun!!! During the sing-along, went down to join the crowd and the choir with my fellow ruggers and some of the Sec 4s. We sang and danced around like idiots. We were not really singing la, just shouting and screaming the lines we knew. hahas. Agh. Such a memorable day and I was quite sad knowing the fact this year would be my last National Day Celebration in Unity. I shall miss Natinal Days!!!!

Here are some pics. Enjoyy!! =)
