'sup it's me, i'm back.
lol.
Anyway, last Saturday was Pink Dot day. However. . .
Kiwi and Chris didn't go (Kiwi was sick so Chris stayed home to bring him to the doctor and to take care of him). But us straight people still went ahead, after all, we were going to support the WHOLE LGBTQIA community (btw, why did they add "I" and "A" this year? What do they even stand for?)
Oh yeah, thank goodness Amos helped out at the booth last year because this year he managed to get the Sponsor tags for us so we could skip the long queue to enter Hong Lim Park (the queues were crazily long and the weather was insane).
I'm really happy that despite all the government clamp downs and restrictions, they still managed to get more than 100 local companies to sponsor them <3
And also, even though this year there were only 20k people who attended the event (there were 25k last year), it was still significant because only Singaporeans and PRs could attend the event, so imagine that. . .
it's 20k SINGAPOREANS AND PRS.
And that's what really matters. Local support.
Change is coming. Change will happen in our lifetime.

| Look at our crazy third wheel behind hahaha. Btw the umbrellas were free! So we formed a mini tent around the 5 of us to shield ourselves from the sun. |

| This is Chris's bff, Iris. So basically a photo of the 2 BF's BFFS. |
 |
| Our mats were in such a great spot. Luckily we reached around 3:30pm. It got crowded really fast. |
Gr8 time, gr8 company.
'til next year!
and in the meantime, don't discriminate. Be nice to everyone.
