NDP Preview 2013:)

Hi everyone, my school had invited me to watch the National Day Preview and I’m here to blog about this wonderful event. Woke up at 9am to have my morning meal. After my meal my brother & I went to watch the legend of the crazy monk on television. Went to get ready at 11am, as I was getting ready I realized that were no white pants, I freaked out after 30 minutes my sister handed me a pair of white pants. After getting ready I went to the dining table to have my lunch, my sister made sandwiches for the three of us and my brother made me a cup of milo without any sugar!! After finishing that really nice meal I went to put on my shoes. At 12: 36 the bus came to pick me up. When we arrived at school only for 20 minutes than we were off to event venue, during the journey I was talking to my CCA teacher about the latest news and all that stuff.
When we arrived at the floating platform my teacher gave me my dinner, I had a shroom burger from Burger King and a cup of mango juice. At 7pm the show started with the hosts coming onto the platform, shortly after all of the ministers had arrived the Red lions were jumping out of their plane at 50,000 feet and for the first time in history there was a female red lion. After the red loins segment it was time for the armed forces showcase, showcasing the professionalism of the men and women of the Singapore armed forces, after the showcase the actors from Ah Boys to Men came onto the stage to sing the theme song of the movie.

At this time it was getting dark so I took out the lightstick from the fun pack. The performers were singing songs, then I heard a voice saying hi and I wondered where was it coming from, it was the merlion. The merlion wanted to join us on stage but, he was scared to swim over then we had to cheer for him to swim over and when he dived down an animation of the merlion swimming over to the platform started to show on the screen. When the merlion arrived it started to sing, after singing fireworks started to shoot out of the merlion’s mouth. The show ended with some fireworks. I took some random of MBS. I went home at about 10:37Pm see you soon

Has technology and social media taken over the Singapore community????

Was watching the television show On The Red dot with my family last night, the topic showcased this week was are people in Singapore too used to going online on their phones and devices? The answer is yes; a study shows that 50% of people in Singapore go online everyday. Let me share with you the 3 age groups that use these devices the most.

Kids

Kids love to play with ipads and iphones. Even when I’m out having dinner with my family I’ll always see a random kid playing with the Ipad. Some parents say that it’s good for their kids to be exposed to such electronics because it promotes parent and child bonding. But a child development specialist says that it’s not very good for children to play while lying down because, their bodies are still in a stage of development, therefore their backbone might grow to be out of shape if they lie down or slouch while playing games. The specialist advised that children should engage in more outdoor actives such as playing at the playground.

Teens

It’s common to see teens like myself on our phones checking on our social media accounts. My sister & I like to take photos of food and post them on Instagram  When someone leaves me a message on any of my social media accounts, I’ll try my best to reply them as soon as I can. The first thing I do on a weekend is to wake up and check my Instagram for any likes or new followers. In my mind social media is a new way to connect with family and friends.

 People 40 and above


Don’t be shocked when I tell that my mum & dad know how to use their phones to download apps and watch YouTube videos on their phone, my dad watches videos on his phone for an hour before going to work. My mum can do her housework while listening to really old songs. My mum can sit at the dinner table for hours playing Candy Crush, my mum always asks my younger brother to download new games for her till her phone has no memory. Even my grandmother uses her Ipad to play games, every time I go for dinner at my grandmother’s I’ll always see her playing a game of Angry Birds!! What has this world come to!! See you Soon.

Singapore Wins against Chef Ramsay

Recently the world-class chef Gordon Ramsay was here in Singapore to test his skills against local hawkers to see who could cook to the better version of local dishes. For those of you who don’t know who he is, he’s a 5 star chef that owns his chain of restaurants all 5 stars all across the UK. Besides having 5 star restaurants he has appeared in TV shows like Hell’s Kitchen and Master chef UK.

He went to some of Singapore’s best food stalls to learn about the dish. The finial showdown took place at the Newtown food center last night Mr Ramsay won with his version of the chilli crab but lost with chicken rice and laksa. He did put up a good fight. The reason I think that the hawkers won was because the hawkers are used to cooking the dishes, while Mr Ramsay is used to cooking western dishes. See You Soon.
