She's old and fat, but she's my momma
What should I do to celebrate my mother country's birthday tomorrow? I guess I could:
1) Walk out of school with my face painted red and white; dressed as a merlion; or a giant roti prata, which I'm pretty sure is a Singapore creation (as opposed to a subcontinental Indian creation)
2) Stay at home, download all the "Our Global City: Our Home" videos, mp3 podcasts and logos available on the very mathspower123!-resque National Day 2006 website.
3) Just do nothing, as if it were a normal day. After all, didn't dear Cordelia say, "What shall Cordelia speak? Love and be silent." I'll just shut up. Let's all love our country in our own way. No fireworks and giant orchid-headed people dancing around in sequins for me this year.
