If you have known mi long enuff, you would have known I had been a very patriotic citizen. Im proud to say, since primary 4 when i first attended the NDP, I have never failed to bring my ass down to the national day stadium/padang on every 9 augusts or 2 sats before the actual dae.
From 2 years queueing at tampines stadium, I continued, faithfully queuing even when the queue shifted to a much desolated Bedok camp two. Queuing then was not a 1, 2 hrs affair. Its a overnight thing. Which means u need to pay a price in order to celebrate the country birthday. But its ok. Im patriotic.
After some years, some crap generals of the SAF begin introducing a surprise NDP ticketing system. Which means news of ticketing would only be released couple hrs before ticketing excersie starts.
Yes they think they smart, but we exprienced queuers were even smarter. We deploy our scouts team to the frequent ndp ticketing outlets to spy for any logistical movement. Lo and behold, we found 3 and 5 tonners truck with army personnels at bedok stadium
After which, a few phone calls confirms our findings. Call bedok stadium and act wanna book badminton courts, soccer feilds. Well i guess our 3g army is not as advanced as our 3g mobile phone then.
Wadever it is, instead of surprising us, i guessed they were much more surprise seeing us the exprienced queuers with our sleeping bags 1 day before the actual ticketing starts.
But due to some sophiscated andidontwanttosharewithyou reasons, i didnt manage to get any tickets. Using $40 BIG LIKE CANNON bucks, i made my virgin purchase of a pair of NDP tickets.
That particular year. I went to two NDP show. Preview and Actual . And on the actual dae, i had sore eyes. (literal)
The following year, dont know is it they wanna revenge against the exprienced queuers who had managed to pwned yr ass the previous year, they introduce
