NDP tickets

i miss the times when i was younger, where my family and i would go to queue up for ndp tickets. sometimes we would even stay overnight..with all the kiasu singaporeans..fighting for the ndp tickets, a chance to see the fireworks,helicopters, first hand, not to forget getting the goodie bags. but what has happened to all these patriotic actions of singaporeans? Since the introduction of balloting of ndp tickets in 2003, i believe many of us have stopped fighting for this "unique" chance to experience the national day parade. Maybe most has tried to get the tickets in the first few years, but due to unsuccessful applications, have slowly lost heart to continue applying. one such experience is yours truly. In some of the years, we would remember to apply, but never once did we get the ndp tickets in these 10years. There are 6 people in my family. I really hope with all my heart that one day, the system can be changed back to what it was. Although it may be more troublesome, requiring more manpower, i believe all is worth it..We used to follow ndp so fervently. A question to ask yourself now, how old is singapore this year? i bet most people wouldn't know. Sigh. i wish i can get those tickets.
