Happy Merdeka~!

Today was probably the most interesting Merdeka I had. BRATs had an event today and guess what the activity was?? :) We had to...........














"Vandalize" the Monorail!










It was really fun. This event was part of the Random Alphabets movement. Basically, our job was to get on to one monorail per team and decorate the interior while the train operates as usual.

You can just imagine all those shocked and dumbfounded faces when we entered the train and started pulling stickers, flags, confetti and sprays out. The passengers were really amused when they saw us running from one end of the train to the other. It was like a live show of 'orang gila doing benda gila' as my friend put it.

We all had our own jobs and mine was to distribute mini flags and stickers. Some gave me weird stares but some gave me huge grins. It was especially sweet when the children waved the flag and said Merdeka like it meant more than just something we'd shout. "Hi! Have a flag! Happy Merdeka!" I must have sounded like a recording machine. lol!

Every time the door opens, we would be shouting Merdeka till the door closes. That even made some passengers contemplate if they should actually get on! ;p It was really a priceless experience we all had today! What a random way to spend my Merdeka. :)
