Of course, this is where the fun starts, even despite the long wait. Our minder for the day, trekkie Richard had started giving out spare water bottles that were taken from the HQ. The excitement were just about to sky-rocket!īut before everything went wild, we had to endure a longgggggggggggg wait for the show to start. The grandstand, which was constructed infront and opposite the Supreme Court had started to fill with the excited spectators. If I’m not mistaken, the time was somewhere at 1800hrs. The magnificent floats were all there, standing by near the side of the Padang. Once again, the eyes of the many went unblink when both Borg and Klingon were caught sighted! =o Moments later, we were told to proceed towards the Padang. Man! I’m telling you, its like the Walk of Fame! Excited faces from the public rushed to take picture with us. Cameras kept snapping from all directions. But members of public were just so surprised to see Star Trek characters came alive on the streets! And their eyes went wide opened upon seeing the Borg and Klingon Starfleet officer, whose character name is Lt Commander Worf, and that the mask was wore by James himself. Dress beautifully, with the intriguing displays of patterns that came in many forms of shapes and sizes.

And viewers out there who are reading this, this is where we felt like Hollywood stars! =) I’ve forgotten the name of the street where we had disembarked, but I know its located near to Dhoby Ghaut MRT station. Of course, anyone could have noticed how the kids from a primary school who were participating began to stare unblinking at a hideous creature who boarded the same bus with them……Ī moment later, we arrived. We had our last practice before we set off towards the Padang by bus. The rain had stopped, and the sky shines once again. Well, this is something new of the Borg…=o Since when was the last time you saw a Borg been equipped with a Starfleet standard phaser rifle and a beacon light that were scrapped around the wrist? Well, this one does =) Reason? Because from those absents, there is still some spare of the items left, and local Star Trek founder James had me to use them only for the day. If you are a Star Trek fan, then tell me this.

Surprisingly, my character as the Borg-assimilate Starfleet officer held a different point of view on that day. But they will be back for the actual event. The other four who were also participating, named Fatimah, Vera, Stephanie and Benedict couldn’t make it as they were caught up in their own schedule. On that day, only eight of us were present, with one of them, a trekkie named Richard who had volunteered to be our minder for that day. Last minute preparation were made for us who were participating before the next instructions from the organizers were announced. Oh man….please come another day…=( As such, we were to immediately ushered back inside the HQ.

The sky had turned grey, and drops of rain had started hitting our heads. In the first place, we thought its going to rain when we were told to perform the last practice when we were still at People Association Headquarters. Therefore, I will start off in two folds =) One is the preview, and the other one is the actual. The audience are waiting anxiously for this grandest event to take action! As before, the event comes in two separate days. The planning, the rehearsal, is all been accounted for. Local Star Trek members or trekkies who were participating were all ready for the big day. The thrill and perhaps, suspense that keeps you pumping that you thought you gonna explode at any moment! =D If I have not joined the club, I wouldn’t get to feel this excitement that I always wanted. This time, the experience was beyond the limit. On top of that, I was still serving my National Service. The last time I had participate for something big was four years ago, where I was one of the police officers within the police contingent been represent to take part for the National Day 05.
