Celebrate ! Singapore Gotten A Special 43th Birthday Present

Congratulation! Singapore. A heartwarming-48-years wait for one of our Singapore Olympic Teams to proudly wave to the world. Our women table tennis team has achieved it. The much-supported sport by our government to walk tall in the international sport arena has finally pays off.

I am sure the joy of all my fellow Singaporeans cannot be contained. We should call it our super Sunday. Truly a memorable moment for every one watching the match live & cheering on for our women table tennis team who has won silver.

Bravo! Thank you ladies for the good fight!

8 August 2008 - 8.08pm - China Olympic

Friday evening again. Supposed to be a cell group gathering at our cell leader's place. With an impromptu decision, we have changed it into yet another enjoyable evening - watching the once-in-a-four-years Olympic Opening Ceremony hosted by China.

The array of colours from costumes & flags of various countries; and the many symbols of art displayed in dances, lightings & fireworks - all so stunning & captivating. Parades by contingents from 205 countries. Everybody so high-spirited, carefreely walking pass & waving to the spectators; all supportively cheering on. Many members of every contingent were holding cameras & video cameras capturing moments of happiness around them. Some were even talking into their mobile phones while parading around the stadium! Truly carefree & unrestricted in such a formal occasion.

A long awaited dream-come-true celebration of the chinese people in the Mainland, happening on 8 August 2008, at 8.08pm & co-incidentally also on the 8th day of the lunar calendar.
