Chapter: Universal Studios Singapore
Date: 14 September 2011
Characters: Me & My track-mates.
Warning/Alert: Long post but Not in full detail, to know them, visit USS!

Finally i landed in Universal Studios Singapore! No longer looking out of the monorail like a pathetic person! It really felt magical and special, as if you went overseas.

Was really afraid i couldn't wake up in time to meet them at habourfront, due to having training the previous day and i end up sleeping at about 12am when i need to wake up at about 6.30am to prepare for USS.

Walked around took pictures..off we go to the SPECIAL EFFECTS... i got wet in there... :( water just SPLASHED and just nice standing in the first row, WET WET WET... continue walking..

We reach SCI-FIC area :) that's where the BATTLESTAR/HUMAN & CYCLON rollercoasters are! SUPER NERVOUS cause i've not taken anything that thrilling/life-endangering/scary for 5-6years. seems like quite a short interval? then take 5-6years x 365days! So i managed to gather up some courage and went to ride it(our first freaking RIDE of the day was ROLLERCOASTER?) all sat for HUMAN (RED ONE), brochure says it has a speed of 82.8km/h, but i believe its faster than that... sat in the middle cos the sides seemed too dangerous... SCREAMED AND SCREAMED like wtfomg. closed my eyes cos i didn't want to see anything. i SWEAR short people shouldn't ride this cos it gives you 3x Thrill/nervousness.. first, u are usually short, your leg can't reach the rollercoaster's platform and when it ZOOMS, i swear i couldn't feel my lower body... next, you're usually light, common to have the fear of flying off your seat(for a moment), thirdly is the normal thrill that everyone is experiencing.

Next was the Egyptian area. Took picture with the egyptian guard and i waved hello to him. and he is sucha damn ass. I'm so friendly yet he scare me. tsk! i think the moment i spotted him right behind me, i just dashed off and my track-mates even my bf laughed at me. its like Human Instinct.. Fight-Flight response. seeing that he is towering above me, of course a fight response is not feasible. So all i can do is to take Flight. Waited outside the Mummy ride for the rest (except senior and bf) cos i was told it goes backward too, so unprepared yet. and i noticed that the rollercoaster rides all states 'This is a HIGH-SPEED rollercoaster ride....' i was like, of course its understandable that a rollercoaster is of a high-speed, otherwise it wouldn't be called a rollercoaster.

The person who scared me!

Ate @ Far Far Away. I recommend you to bring your own food to munch on rather than spending $$$ on their not-so-worth food in there. Had a 2 piece chicken meal (includes drink, mash potato, and a small bun) cost me $10.80.


*Puzzled*: we went on this Treasure Hunt ride meant for little kids, but i can't remember we rode it before or after lunch. it was all for fun, all the props are like you-see-you-know-its-fake.

Then we went to Jurassic Park area :) we played on this pasar-malam type of ride...reminds me of my childhood :) then we watched the Watershow (the one that has live-firing etc)... quite cool, have been wanting to watch it... almost got splashed (a few cm from getting splashed). then back to jurassic park to play this mid-air rollercoaster(2 facing front, 2 facing back), the front part was enjoyable, nothing scary, but the ending prepare to get a surprise! :)

Back to far-far-away(i think, i kind of messed up with the day's sequence) to watch the DONKEY SHOW. Meant to entertain kids i guess. Then waited for seniors to have their turn on Ferris Wheel. Bought the fruit punch(in the tall big bottle), soooooo sweet omg, you might get diabetes. It was drizzling, so we went to watch the SHREK 4D, very prepared for all the 4d effects, some tip-off from my mum :) but she didn't tell me how many times the donkey sneezed... the chair was practically a rocking chair... just keeps rocking.

Then most of my other seniors went to play this Mini Dragon Rollercoaster. indeed a mini ride, they just entered and exited the place as if they went to the washroom. Off to Madagascar! Can't remember if we rode on the Carousel first or the water ride. Both rides are EXTREMELY SAFE, does not cause any fear. Took photos with Madagascar characters. I took with the penguins, lion and monkey. Monkey is TICKO lols.

We walked another round of USS... Took photos with some of the characters(some lady), frankestein, marilyn, kung-fu panda. Played kiddy rides again. But wait... I played the Mummy Ride!!! cos there's my senior who rode on Human and cried but she decided to play mummy, so i play also... was freaking nervous, cos it was pitch-black... the props, i wasn't interested at all. My bf timing was spot-on when he knows when the rollercoaster paused and told me 'going to start already)... and off we zoomed BACKWARDS...and FORWARD, screaming like OMG... cos i can't see anything. I personally feel that Mummy is more exciting than Human! and i sat on the ACCELERATOR.. its like My Little Tea Cup, but not as dizzy... nothing much. Ended USS with Rock Musical ! :) was boring that we all could sleep anytime.

Felt accomplished after HUMAN! No crying, no puking :)

Photos: Thanks to Senior for being cameraman! :) For more photos, see my tagged photos on Facebook!
