National Day Dog

Singapore National Day is coming soon; August 9th, and Singapore turns 46. See Singapore was once part of a united Malaya, but Malaysia kicked out Singapore, and after a little cry, the big boss, Mr.Lee, rolled up his sleeves, waved cheerio to those across the causeway, and got on with creating a happy Singapore..and wow, it really took off! Instead of stuffing money under their beds in Malaysia, Brunei and Indonesia, everyone sent their cash to us to look after.. and Singapore was loved the world over! The Chinese admired our communism and the Americans loved our Capitalism, And... I'm not sure what either of those words mean, but i 'admire and love' Devine Doggy dog food, mmmm.

To celebrate National Day the boss is allowed to hang the Singapore flag two weeks before and two weeks after National Day or he gets into big trouble. So everyone is going to hang out their flag, and its beautiful. A sea of red and white with a little crescent moon and stars. It's romantic! And as part of the celebrations Singaporeans must learn the new National Day Dance, which everyone has to do including the men in the white uniforms. I love to do the Singapore dance. Two steps forward, one step back, shuffle, shuffle, shuffle, arm out to the right, pick product off the shelve, into the shopping bag, two steps forward, one step back, shuffle, shuffle...I can hardly wait for this years new dance, woof!

One of my favourite things about the National Day Parade is when all the military is marched past us. It is very exciting, and it looks alot like the parades they have in North Korea, which are always on TV, so they must be good!....But the best is the fireworks, wah, wah, wah...all the pretty lights in the sky. mmmm, I think i will now go to the bosses bedroom and snuggle up on my little mattress and dream of National Day Parade, counting the days.

See you soon for tummy rubs and big face licks.
Love Jessica
