National Day Parade Ticket Application 2022

I plan to apply for this year National Day Parade (NDP) preview tickets. I managed to watch NDP rehearsal in 2019 thanks to my young cousins. 

It is really difficult to get the ballot ticket. I applied for the NDP tickets for so many years but didn't get it. I only managed to watch the preview or rehearsal thanks to my elder and young cousins. 

You can read my old post here. Hopefully I get to watch this year NDP at The Float@Marina Bay.

Fireworks Near My Home

At around 8.25 pm just now, stunning fireworks lighted up the sky in several parts of Singapore. I was delighted to see breathtaking firework in the comfort of my home. What about you? Haha, my young cousin shared that she could only hear the sound of fireworks. 



Happy 55th Birthday Singapore!

To all Singaporeans and residents, Happy National Day holiday! For the first time, there is no National Day Parade celebration at the Padang or the Marina Bay floating platform. Never mind, this year we'll be watching NDP show online. 

This is a very challenging year for Singapore and the rest of the world. Tourism is badly affected by covid-19 and it has affected many livelihoods. May Singapore overcome this difficult year. Together we Can. I am heartened that many Singaporeans are helping each others. As for me, this year I donate more money. 

What is your wish for this year? I really hope that we don't have to wear mask when we are outside. I'm really allergic to surgical mask and now my chin has more pimples due to wearing mask for almost half the day at work. Hope there is a vaccine soon.

Celebrating National Day at Home

As usual, my family and I celebrate National Day at home. Today I ordered KFC umani chicken, cheese fries and coleslaw at home so that we can eat and watch National Day Parade show at home. My brother fried noodles and bee hoon for dinner. 
 
I've been applying for NDP tickets for the past 10 years but rarely get the NDP tickets. In the past, we would just queue up at Tampines stadium early for the NDP tickets. Now with balloting, I rarely get the NDP tickets. I'm beginning to think I have less affinity with Singapore. Anyway next year, I might be going overseas for postgraduate education and won't be in Singapore to celebrate NDP at this period of time.

Happy birthday Singapore!

 Soggy and soft fries. Not good.
