FluteGuan Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) Like this banner much better than some previous terrible ones. Remembered one which was quite racist with white mannequin inverted to a negative black. Thumbs up Happy 51, Singapore!

nixorn Posted August 7, 2016 Report Share Posted August 7, 2016 (edited) Can't help quoting him from the cute guys thread. While u won't see him closeup....he's one of the aerial performers in NDP....quite cute looking. Can't find much except his name in some newspaper articles. Wayne Wee. From MDC, SAF. He's the guy in white t-shirt with arm tattoo in some moments of NDP practice footage. Clip already set to his interview part.

Guest Happy? Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 Are we truely happy? If not whats so happy ? Tell that to those who have to work hard to support families, to the old aunties and uncles who have to work as cardboard collectors or cleaners, tell that to the homeless, the single mother with lack of govt support. Tell that to the stressed out kids strugglingbfor psle, o levels, tell that to thousands who struggle with terrible mrt system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upshot Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 (edited) Beyond the stuff that make you fed up with the politics here and hard living at time among other negative stuff... you are still more luck and alive than many other people around the world. This is above all still home. This is where I most likely will die a true blue Singaporean. This is where my parents are, my friends and my roots. For better or worst. If one life may change later that allows you to leave this little red dot? Even if you do, there will always be a part of you that will still not forget this this little dot that once... was home. Till that day comes, you are never alone to slog it out but with the rest of us alongside with you hehe.. Welcome home. Edited August 9, 2016 by upshot typo... too sleepy to notice earlier heheh Salt&Pepper, shyc and Willy 3 ** Comments are my opinions, same as yours. It's not a 'Be-All-and-End-All' view.

shyc Posted August 8, 2016 Report Share Posted August 8, 2016 No one is born perfect. Not everyone wants to be under social guidance or rely on others. If someone hit rock bottom and continues to believe that life would be better off if they had help. Yet do nothing. Than things just remain the same since no effort to change it. Comparing happiness of others over your hardship will not make it any better. When you start to open your eyes and see the hardship of others far worst than those here, than maybe you'll realize things aren't so bad after all. And before you rant at me for judging you without knowing you than let me ask you to ponder:- If you managed to read, write, especially on this social platform. Do you honestly think it was your solo effort? Someone made them more accessible and affordable, even thou tough and expensive. There are others who don't know how to read or know what social media is. Happiness can be anywhere, if you choose to see it, it is no where, if you fail to believe you are looking at it. Last but not least, Big Thanks, to all who had appreciate the banner, to those who had credited my little effort. To all, A happy National Day, may we all have good health to continue basking in it's glory and safe protection.

nixorn Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 (edited) A mashup of songs of local singers....by Kelly Poon....as she travelled across singapore to the airport.

Salt&Pepper Posted August 9, 2016 Report Share Posted August 9, 2016 1 hour ago, nixorn said: A mashup of songs of local singers....by Kelly Poon....as she travelled across singapore to the airport. One of few corporate ads that I enjoyed. Congrats Starhub! With all the "Founding Fathers" hype for 2 continuous years, a tribute to Mothers of our Nation is refreshing! Simple and Classy. I relate to this MV so much. I had taken so many trips to and fro the airport and home on a taxi working nearly 2 decades abroad. I would always request the taxi uncle to take the ECP to or back from the airport because I want to look at the skyline of Singapore. It has changed so much over the years! I do think it has become one of the more impressive city skyline in the world! (There is one thing that bugs me about Kelly's MV...if taxi uncle took me on the route depicted in the MV....I'll be singing a different tune. Or....it is a route requested by someone who is not coming back anymore.) Thanks @nixorn for sharing the videos and Happy National Day to all!
