A special Tuesday...

Although I know that there are others also writing about this very special annual event, not all are exactly the same.

Today leaves a great mark on the school's history. This is the first time the band is playing, and giving the cues for the observance parade contingents. This is also the very first time, I exoerienced a parade this important that lasted for a mere 15 minutes. I was thinking about what a joke this was. Normally, a parade would last for close to an hour, but this, was only a quarter of an hour. Why? There were no national day songs, no speeches and practically, tnot many guests were present to catch the parade. However, this is the last time that we will get the chance to march at the parade square, for next year it will be a patch of grass. But, why not make this final parade a memorable one? Why not make it many times more impressive than before?

Nevermind. After the parade, went over to the class' ice cream store. Well, more stall holders than customers. Went over to my cousin's store, to prove to myself that my marksmanship was one of the best. At the end of the day, Ms Lim would ahve a hard time trying to count our earnins for the week, though the test-tube designs, sand-in-a-bottle and the ice cream( which we had a lot of fun in making), we seemed to have made a windfall.Anyway, I started a ice-throwing fight, reccomended by Yong Chuan, who said that the gloves we used for the parade were good at keeping our hands warm when handling ice. I simply grabbed a pile of iced, applied my physics knowledge, and got a large ice ball. It was quite fun though, and a few others joined in,till Andy was soaked! Well, I pitied him though, for not using his power to stop us...

Anyway, this afternoon, went to NDC for another session regarding the installation of my braces. Relieved to hear that I would not need to extract a single tooth for now, through the usage of the latest technology, by which the braces are used to make the arc larger? ( I dont really know how to say it).Finally, reached home, just to have a short nap, and typed this down after dinner.
