Youth Olympic Games.
The Youth Olympic Games(YOG) 2010 will be in Singapore and recently, the olympic torch relay had already started from Berlin and will be coming to Singapore in a few days time. As it is the first season and Singapore had the honour of holding the event, the In-Charge is making the event a very grand event. We even created mascots for the event one of which is Lyo which represents a lion and the other is Merly which represents a merlion. The lion and The merlion represents Singapore which means that YOG 2010 is considered very important to Singapore too. The roads in Singapore were also marked with the Olympic logo and a give way sign on the expressways and other roads. This is to ensure that there will not be any jams or delays for the event. People that do not give way will get fined. 
Singaporeans have been preparing themselves actively for the YOG 2010. Many students were involved in a Samsung Human Torch event which mark off the start of the torch relay on the 23 July. The torch will be reaching Singapore on 6 August for a traditional six-days torch relay around Singapore.
As a student of Nanyang Polytechnic, we are asked to perform on the 7 August when the torch is arriving at our school. The Prime Minister will also be coming to our school to witness the event.
