This is Home, truly
Where I know I must be
Where my dreams wait for me
Where that river always flows
This is home, surely
As my senses tell me
This is where I won't be alone
For this is where I know it's home
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SINGAPORE !!
Last night me and sis were singing old school national day songs! =D I had a great time.. remembering how much I love some of the songs.. The catchy and meaningful words of the songs..
I remember how we had to wear red and white to school to celebrate national day! I always had to borrow from my aunt!! She is always my life saver when it came to clothes. =D Then there was this activity for primary 5 pupils to attend to the national day preview. I was totally so excited about it!! I remember clearly that my teacher said the latest to reach school was 12.45pm!! But when I reached at 12.45pm, every single bus had gone!! =( But thankfully, my teacher was nice enough to give me a ride back home and explained to my parents. lol
I wonder how do schools celebrate national day now..
So, anyway...
I did a little search of the national day songs.
Here is a list..

. 1986 - Count on me, Singapore .

I can't remember the recent few years the songs. Sad, I used to be so excited over the national day theme songs! Nevertheless, the producers, singers and songwriters still deserve a big thank you for their efforts~
May everyone enjoy this national day!!
