Independence

3... 2... 1....

31st August came and went with a bang. People from all walks of life celebrate it in many different ways. I was at the Curve to catch the fireworks which was ain't that bad.

The free open concert was a bit dissapointing though. I reckon there should be more patriotic song. But nope, the promoter thought it would be more spectacular to put on a half a dozen semi-naked dancers bouncing off their tushie to Michael Jackson's "Beat it".

But hey who am I to argue with 7,800 other people out there that night? They seem to enjoy the show.

The highlight of my 'little tour' at the midnight celebration was to see my own fellah bangsa'man posing his merdeka spirit.

I'm sure Tok Gajah, Dato' Bahaman and Mat Kilau would be proud to see our generation's mentality at the peak of our 5oth national independence.

Well Malaysia... Happy Birthday!
