Instead of relaxing in a corner, my friend and I were rushing about to gather material for our next posts. We paused for a while to view the Parade and started chatting about this year's NDP. For some reason, the conversation became quite serious (despite the fact that we were practically shouting at each other over the cheers of the audience).

'Aren't you bored with seeing so many of the rehearsals?'
'Nope, each rehearsal is different.' (gesturing to the audience)

Yes, indeed.

This blog was conceived after hours of planning, hours of meetings and hours of dealing with the dreadful html. To be honest, there have been many disputes, some disagreements, much frustrations.

We were disheartened sometimes, receiving much flake from even our friends and family (esp. during the initial stages). We were irritated that sometimes each photo took half-an-hour to upload (sometimes even resulting in an 'uploading failed' -.-'" ).

It's watching the audience smile that gives us reason to continue working. Their smiles are encouraging, boosting our morale.

Smiling
A language beyond borders
One that connects hearts
Unspoken, silent
But undeniably powerful
It brings Joy, Happiness
A rainbow of colours
to both the party who smiles
and the party who sees the smile


Each weekend, we look forward to watching our fellow citizens smile. Do you?
