Universal Studio Singapore

~ Before enter USS ~

~ Our group photo with transformer ~

Universal Studio Singapore (USS) is the main part for this short Singapore (SG) trip. Went to SG during year 2010, but didn’t have ticket to enter USS, changed to stroll around in Sentosa. Now, because my relatives in SG get cheaper tickets, coincidently my sister having holiday, so we join them to USS. Actually I’m in Final Exam period, exam is important, but we still need some time to release tension one (REASON). HAHA. Spent 2 full days in SG, look for stories of SG Walk Day 1>>> Click Here.

~ Jurassic Park ~

Early in the morning, 8am we entered USS. USS opens daily at 10am, because of event inside, so we get the chance to enter there earlier. Rarely got the chance to see USS with empty people, we quickly took photos and stroll around in USS. Compare to Hong Kong Disneyland, I think USS is smaller. Hong Kong Disneyland with Disney cartoons as their theme while Universal Studio with theme studio and shows.

[Entry Fee]

Adult - $74

Children - $54

Seniors - $36

~ I like this street ~

~ Dance ~

I feel like I’m in London that day, very fresh building to see. Many parks can play for, such as Far Far Away, Madagascar, Hollywood, The Lost World, Ancient Egypt, Sci-Fi City and New York. Transformers 3-D Roller Coaster finally opened, very fun inside, really enjoy. Recommend you to go for Transformers 1^st (ENJOY), then go to Battlestar Gallectica: Human vs Cylon dueling roller coasters (SCARIEST), then Revenge of MUMMY (FUN), after that Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure (WET). These are the most important ride you should try.I found Transformers very fresh and special experience, stylo siot. For Human vs Cylon roller coaster, you will feel your heart goig to jump out already, if you scare, better don’t ride. HAHA. Human vs Cylon, 2 roller coasters will start together, fight/ride only takes 90seconds, but will definitely make you faint and can’t stand still. Enter to MUMMY world, dark world experience inside, very nice decoration. Remember to wear raincoat when you go to Jurassic Park. If not, you will get WET, HAHA. After settle these 4 main roller coasters, then just go for more relax ride.

  

~ Are you dare to ride (Human vs Cylon) ~

~ So scared ~

~ Castle ~

~ So nice ~

Sesame Street Stage Show is street dance show from a hip hop group, nice. Water World stage show very good, their performance very real, even using real guns, helicopter, boat, ski and bombs. Shrek 4-D Adventure not bad as well. 5pm, Hollywood Dreams Parade starts. 8pm, Fireworks around 10mins before leaving USS.

~ Crystal clear water ~

~ With performers ~

~ Prince & Pirate ~

12hrs inside USS very tired but fun enough. Worth die la this short trip. Remember, if you want to go USS, have to book ticket earlier.

Is time to back to study !!! Still got many small corners of Singapore I haven’t explored. I read stories of backpacker in Singapore, many places I haven’t go. HEHE, I will go again de.

Singapore Walk

A sudden unplanned trip to Singapore (SG) during Final Exam period, within 5 days decided everything. After my 1^st paper of exam, got 1 week gap, I made my notes before departed to SG. I can’t stay there for long because exam waiting me. Haha. 4 days 3 nights there, but we reached very late on the 1^st day and leave SG very early on the 4^th day, just counted 2 days spent in SG. 1 day walked around in SG and 1 day spent for Universal Studio Singapore (USS). KL is a strategic place for me, right middle between Kedah and SG, 5 hrs journeys from KL. When I feel want to go home, I can go Kedah, when I feel boring, I can just go SG. HAha. I scare I will do so, so I let my mum keep passport at home, if not I think I will go SG every week.

1^st time went to SG by bus. If normal express bus fee, from KL to SG will be RM40.00, from Kedah will be around RM68.00, quite cheap. From Kedah to SG take 10hrs while from KL to SG only take 5 hrs. If not peak time, can buy bus ticket on the spot. TBS is a bus hub with buses heading to south of Malaysia, there also has café, food court, KFC, MPH Bookstore and pharmacy, very convenient.

[TBS – SG]

Normal fee – Around RM40.00 (Reach Beachroad / Woodlands)

Luxury Bus – Around 75.00 (Serving with food like airplane)

***White Form to enter SG can get from ticket counter or they will distribute on bus

I like the environment in SG, always clean and peaceful. Their public transport very good service and nice facilities. At the park, a very big park, many people jogging, cycling, skating and bring their dog to walk. I like to see that. The most important one is safe. If I live in a place like this, I can jog and cycle everyday lorh, no worries about our safety.

  

~ Cycle before went for walk ~

~ When you feel bored, just come sleep here, HAHA ~

~ After jog, can go Mcd Weyh ~

~ A very beautiful park ~

~ Very interesting and meaningful signboard that can’t see in Malaysia ~

Well, let’s go out for walk, don’t always stay in front computer. Introduce must-visit place in SG.

Tourism Attraction 1: Esplanade

Tourism Attraction 6: Bugis Street

Bugis Street is a place for youngster, cheap things can find inside. A nice place to buy shirts and souvenirs. Hoho

~ My only goods in this SG trip, no much time to shop ~

During night time, we went for a dinner with our gugu. Buffet dinner at Buffet Town, Raffles City.

~ See this is just the 1^st round ~

~ And the last one ~

Like this we finished our SG Walk, feel tired walk for a day, but what waiting us for the next day? Of course is Universal Studio Singapore (USS).

Stay tuned….

Singapore is a nice country to visit, to shop and to play, but the only point make Malaysian to think twice is $$$ - money. RM2.40 exchange with only $1, need to save more just go there. Plus, I have many friends in SG, go there for 1 week also won’t feel bored. HAHA. ^.^

Study Week, NOT for Study

Study week during foundation was the best, definitely like a holiday. But since enter degree studies, I never been holiday anymore, even came to the worst this semester, didn’t get time to study at all. Many important tasks never end in study week. Something goes like this:

Monday – Submit document of Proposal FYP

Our course arranged us to do proposal FYP in 4^th sem, continue to Final FYP on 6^th sem. 5^th sem we are going for internship. Print out 3 sets of 55pgs, binding and submit to 2 panels and supervisor. UPNM not enough facilities, just 1 shop open for binding facility. Can you imagine the situation of whole university’s students queue up at the same shop for binding? The shop open quite late, can’t wait for it, I open my new ink for my printer. Suddenly I provide photostat service to my friends, print 3 persons’ document, 3 sets per person. Felt pity to my printer, print out 450pages within 2hrs, printer ink also finish in one day, haha.

~ 3 sets of my FYP, hardly produce it in UPNM, many procedures ~

Tuesday – Interview for Internship

Suddenly received a call from a shipping company on Monday evening, asked me to go for interview appointment. Wait for so long, finally got company call me for interview. I went to interview alone, to a big and beautiful company, felt very nervous and scared. Was a 1-to-1 interview, they gave me Memory Test, Personality Test, Find 10 differences on the bills, and oral interview with manager. Wa, 1^st time went through this. 3hrs spent in the interview. Haha. This company very good, they discuss everything with me, asked me to start works earlier. Within 24 hrs, I received a letter, the company officially accept me as an intern, so good. So, I will start my intern on End of July until End of November.

Many elements we need to do, included route on charts, passage planning written in document and OOW Note Book. Still got some elements we haven’t complete. That “some elements” also took our whole day to complete. From 11am until 1am midnight we just completed the passage planning, whole day face with the charts. My group considered not bad already, many of my classmates didn’t sleep at that night to complete the task.

~ 14charts made me stress ~
