Selamat Hari Merdeka 2009

Today marked Malaysia's 52nd independence day. And one of the good thing is the date falls on Monday which means public holiday huhu! My fond memories during Merdeka was when i joined the marching parade with the Persatuan Pandu Puteri (Girl's Guide). Made new friends from other schools and we were escorted by VI's brass band. Jauh lah jugak kene marched sampailah nak dekat depan Sogo building baru bersurai. Lepas tuh dah tak kosser dah nak join hehe!

Last year NST run a special merdeka issues where they printed paper taun 1957 few days before merdeka (or izit a week?) Bes giler baca paper zaman dolu2 but what caught my eyes most are the advertisements hehe. Vintage okeh and ada yang kelakar! And we can see how cheap things were back then. And oh this year's slogan is Rakyat didahulukan, Pencapaian diutamakan. Ermmmm....abes tuh kenapa harga minyak naik besok? RON95 for RM1.80.

But I still love you, Malaysia.
