Racial Harmony Day

 Ace's return to Singapore was peppered with huge doses of patriotism:) hahaha... In School, they were supposed to design and paste their birthday greetings for Singapore and I thought his design is really very nice:)

And then there was the racial harmony day.. which ended up being a big headache for me.

I found out about racial harmony day but did not understand or know what is required and went to ask my friend who has school going children. Apparently, you have optional choice to wear an ethnic costume of any day to school.. I wish our boxes were already here man. Then Ace can wear his arabic outfit.. wahahahaha :)

Ace said he wants to ear chinese outfit. I said wear malay lah.. pasar malam in Tampines can buy liao.. but he dun want.. insist on chinese outfit.. so I told him I will try but if cannot find he will wear school uniform... and then he kum wan...

Then leh, poor me run here run there... find in the whole bedok interchange also only saw those for kids lah..

LIke this...

 So in the end, C recycled gor gor's outfit with his emporer hat from his kai ma on racial harmony day...

And Ace just wear school uniform lor:)

And the best part is.. after they went to school... Ace discovered that most of his friends did not wear anything special. So he declared next year will just wear school uniform.. save money!:) wahahaha

Anyway, I read up a little more and found out that Racial Harmony Day is related to the racial riots many moons ago and set up as a way to remember to practice racial harmony and tolerance.  Ace told me they were also given some sort of talk about it.

I asked Ace if he wanted to wear his arabic outfit next year.

"Don't want. Wear that cannot run and play during recess..."

Win liao lor..  Hahahah...
