So the girls at ESPL togged up, ditched any lingering feelings of homesickness, and headed out to National Day parties in their new adopted towns. Food, friends, more food and loads of fun. Sounds like a genuine down-home Singapore extravaganza!
Shakeleg in Jakarta opens her vocal chords to share her rendition of NDP favorites:
In Washington DC, Una Ragazza visits the funky Newseum building on August 8, one day before Singapore's National Day. Among the daily exhibition of newspaper front pages from around the world, she finds a copy of The Straits Times!
And in New York, Cirrus Cloud teams up with Una Ragazza to pose as citizen photojournalists at the Singapore Consulate's NDP party:
Just in time for the anthem and pledge!
Spot anyone you know? Singaporeans just have a familiar look. We'd recognise them anywhere.
Of course, there's food. A lot of food. It's a Singaporean shindig, remember?
Commemorating NDP in red and white (handbag included).
Inside the goodie bag: We heart the Yeo's satay sauce and Singa the Lion!!!
Meanwhile, Horse With No Name braves an excessive heat warning in the sweltering desert to take in the ND celebrations in Arizona.
Hot so what? Hot can still eat. So just eat lah!
No party is complete without a bouncy castle! (Bouncy kids not included.)
The Singaporean young'uns get in the spirit with a super cute song and dance routine.
A big birthday group hug from us at ESPL to our fellow Sg-ers around the world. We'd love to know: How did you celebrate National Day this year?
