there has been much action in singapore lately regarding the Youth Olympics 2010 bid hasn't there? from what i know, the results of the bid will only be released some time this week but there has sure been lots of hype surrounding it. so, i decided to check out some of the videos myself on youtube. yes, the wonderful world of youtube. no doubt there were some really crappy videos, i'm speaking in terms of the professionalism of the video uploaded and not judging the raring enthusiasm shown by the participants, but i must say after all that i've watched, singapore really do deserve to win. a quick search on youtube on moscow's olympic bid and i was offered a dismaying result of two videos. if number of videos uploaded onto youtube was a selection criterion, i'm sorry to say but yes the ASIANS PREVAIL.

it's really encouraging to see the whole of singapore getting so hyped up over this bid, after all this could very well be just an ordinary bid in the eyes of the organisers in the beginning. at least that's what they thought. awesome display of national unity not just amongst the youths per se, but surprisingly amongst the heartlanders. yes i'm referring to you auntie. hanging your NUM flag outside your window- you just put those people encouraging others to hang national flags on national day to shame. it shows something doesn't it? oh well. so check this video out, i think it's one of the better vids i've watched, the other being the promotional less than a minute long video, but i much prefer this. nonetheless, if you havent watched the vancouver promotional video for the 2010 winter olympics bid, you missed out a whole lot. that was pretty good. gah- made me want to go there and see those smiley faces. so, aiyah, enough said. check this video out.

makes me wonder further, if the choral society here decided to bid for, say the world choir games, would singaporeans rise up to the challenge and display their national unity seen now? now that, is some food for thought.

enjoy.
