I should never get myself so drunk again

I have a hangover from a game of "I never ever..." last night, and now i'm paying for it. I'm now suffering a hammering headache, a constantly feeling of vomiting, a irritating fever and fast heartbeat. Frankly speaking, vomiting from a hangover is never fun! It is a torture for my throat and stomach. This time round of "hangover" is worst then the last one, where i'm already shivering and loose control after those alcoholic drink. I already almost cant control my own body, perhaps this is what "Alcohol Poisoning". Arghhh!!! I'm feeling so terrible now!

I should never get myself so drunk again.

"LAST" Christmas

For both xmas eve and eve of xmas eve, I have done nothing else but just EAT! This is a very fattening xmas, where I have spent most of the time eating, follow by shit and sleep. What difference is there between me and PIG?!

On eve of Xmas eve, we went to RWS to witness THE MOST DAZZLING CHRISTMAS. Ermmm.... Well, I have been there one month ago to witness that. But thinking that it was rather early back then, so I thought that not able to feel that Christmas excitement is alright. But my recent visit back to RWS prove my assumption wrong. It was worst, totally dun have xmas feel at all. Besides the "very" tall xmas tree, nothing felt like it was cmas season. Anyway, still glad that i'm there, becoz i finally patron the Chilis Grill and Bar. The ambience is rather good and the portion of their food is amazingly big somehow. When the food is served, I thought that it is definitely possible for me to finish up vegetarian burger and that few pieces of fries. But after approx 1 hour of chewing, I really have difficulties finishing it. The dining experience sort of turned into a self-torture session.

After that, we decided to stroll down the bridge that links sentosa to the main island. You could see that alot of thought and efforts have been used to beautify that bridge. However, there was not much "life" there. So i guess what I have heard about the bridge is rather true. WuuuuuuuuuuuWwuuuuu~

We then proceed back to North-East area - Hougang. But, this place is sort of unfamiliar for me nowadays, because I couldn't remember when was the last time I've stepped into Hougang central. Anyway, we went to a bubble tea shop that operates till damn late night. A rather unique bubble tea shop I should say. I'm in love with their cushion, as they are very comfy and so comfy that it gives you that "Welcome Home" feel. Bubble tea wise...... Hmmm... they are just so-so, nothing special about it. All i can say is that they are more into the "image" rather than the quality/uniqueness of the tea? - nice shop furnishing, nice packaging of the tea, nice toilet... but the tea didn't wow or awaken my sleepy soul.


Next for Christmas eve... another day of Eat Eat Eat!!!! We went to Lenas Cafe, and i have finally tried the Mushroom with Rice set. Awww~ it was nice, very different from other dishes it offers. As the restaurant is prone towards western dishes, this Mushroom in egg sauce + rice set is simply Asian style. Not forgetting their breaded mushroom. It is one of the best that I have ever tried, it controls your "mind" by telling your brain to Never stop eating it! Even my friend who hates mushroom also adore it.

After that we headed towards Serangoon Garden for some drinking, but the session failed (and I'm quite fine with not drinking... LOL!!!!) beczuse I'm already dead tired! We decided to head towards that iconic Dessert Bowl instead. As usual, I've ordered the Ayu Mango but also did tried abit of that Durian Mousse (and i think it my first time trying it. Damn weird, I have been there for so long and this is my first time trying it??? Hmmmm) . Gosh! that durian Mousse is really eating durian in a creamy way. And every stir on that durian mousse, it just never failed to create that aroma. Oh! And not forgetting those DIY cakes and cookies. Damn nice but fattening.

Hope everyone of you have enjoyed your xmas!

Wish I still have the chance to be showered in love and joy for next year christmas.... Do I still have the chance?

Never ending illness


The crazy weather,  ridiculous transportation and my recent madness eating habbit have resulted my health to ting the bell again. This is the third or fourth time im falling sick in this quarter. Today is sore throat, and i cant imagine what gonna happened tomorrow. Ever since i have started to work in this current company, i seems to fall sick frequently. 

Anyway, the recent disruption of train services in singapore has created a big huha in the nation. In total, 3days of service disrupt, and 1 day of thorough check. Unbelievably,  im affected for 3days!!! What a world class transport we have, even a small "mistake" or a decision mafe ten years ago, resulted in the whole nation to "celebrate". Seriously,  i dun see the point why do we have to pay so much on our daily  transport when the whole system sucks big time! We pay to squeeze like sardines? We pay to contribute to the corporate's net profit? We pay to risk our life when the drivers treat the buses like roller coaster ride (all those fast driving, jam breaks or even lead you to stranded) ? Or... we pay to experience the trail adventurous route of underground tunnel? This is absurb!

anyway, back to my illness, guess i have to buy vitamin c to consume liao. My immunity is totally "chui". I dont want to fall sick during the festive seasons. T.T

Mr. Asshole


Damn bus driver, i dunno what he is rushing for, and seriously he is one of those asshole that pushes the blame to others without any self-reflection. What happened was...

I was walking towards the bus stop, and im about 20m away from it. I saw my bus is approaching, so as a basic instinct i ran towards it. there were a few people at that bus stop, so i guage that i can still make it. Guess what? As soon as those passengers boarded the bus, the bus driver closed the freaking door immediately!!!  Im already standing right infront of it lor. The door havent even shut properly and already started to accelerate. The very bu shuang me decided to knock that glass door to venge my anger. Well, even if the knock didnt WAKE Him up, i think it might still pissed him off somehow.

In the end, this very aunty/uncle "notification" method really works. He stopped for me, and show me a rather pissed looking face. He did said something to me, but due to my ear piece i didnt manage to catch his sentence clearly, but if im not wrong he should be saying "next time dont knock on the door, we can see u one!"

But HELLO!! I HAVE BEEN TREATED LIKE SOME  transparent bottle, and u still dare to say u are very observant?!!!

And thoughout the bus journey, he still continue with his chionging to close the door, speed and jam break...  asshole!!!

Crazy!


Im going crazy soon. The daily huayue practice on kpop songs is seriously draining all my energy. Kpop may be nice to listen, which in turn, provides u with another mode of enjoyment. But!!!! Practicing it is a mental torture! All those rhythm, beats, harmonise melody.... whatever u wanna call it, is pushing to the edge of the cliff! ARGHHHH!!!!

After the concert i gonna keep myself away from kpop for awhile. This is a  nightmare. Usually, i always focus only on the vocals and the main tune of a song, but recently im more into the "bass" part just for this concert.

Now, i dunno should i laugh at myself or not? Im suffering for those songs that i loved.

" Differentiation "


I have been watching backdated tvb drama  (公主嫁到) from morning till now, and i have finally finish it after so long. I have d/l  this drama since last year  Guess what?  After listening to Cantonese for one whole day, i think i have went sort of crazy!!! I have switched to my mio tv, and the channel is now airing running man, which is korean language variety show, but.... i'm still hearing cantonese!!!!! Initially i  thought i forgotten to switch off my speaker, but this is not the case, becoz my pc audio output is connected to my tv. so at one time, there can only be one audio, either from the pc channel or the miotv channel, and can never be both....

Now im watching it, but i still can spot cantonese o.O my brain went crazy liao, i really cant differetiate korean and cantonese.

Cry Cry

This is a month of kpop indulgence for Singapore!!! 2PM, SNSD, TVXQ are staging their concert from mid November onwards. Also not forgetting the MAMA awards, where a couple other kpop artist, girl band and boyband will also be here. pretty crazy isnt it? We cant be attending all of these event, it will a huge burnt in your pocket. Well, I have made up my mind, whether am I able to watch 2pm concert will all leave to fate. If i'm destined to see 2pm in real live action, I will be able to see them this saturday. If i'm not fated to see them, then i shall just CRY at home lor.


Anyway, B2ST is attending MAMA. Thankfully!!!!! or else i dont even know i go there for what... sit there 4 hours w/o any opportunity to catch a glimpse of my favourite kpop group.... but T-ara is not attending MAMA due to their hectic promotion schedule. T.T CRY!! CRY!!



Anyway, this dance rehearsal video is worth to watch. nice and swift dance movement.

A note to myself...

I'd read an article on STOMP... and this amazing article seems like conveying the message of "CHANGE YOUR DAMN LIFESTYLE FOR GOODNESS SAKE!".


Here are some tips to look younger:
- exercise regularly, get enough sleep and don't smoke
- eat fresh, healthy food
- have a balanced diet and 4 meals a day in small portions
- Drink lots of water and fluids as water helps wash off toxins and keeps your skin healthy
- Apply lighter make-up and shades as you grow older
- Apply vitamin E based cream or lotions on body to keep skin soft and supple
- Always apply sunscreen if you intend to stay out in the sun
- Follow the cleaning, toning and moisturising regime every night before you got to sleep.

Have a BREAK. Have a KIT KAT




This very kind and hardworking malay auntie, who never fails to ensure the cleanliness of our "freezing" area, offers me a bar of kit kat today. The reason? She is leaving for good, retiring...... sort of envy her, as i dont even know when will i be able to retire. Alright, too early to think of that actually. I shld think about when will i be able earn my first pot of 999.9 gold or even $1mil

Ah~ Forget about it, that is just not my type. I dun actually go for such an ambitious aim. Anyway, all the best auntie!!! I dun even know her name actually.

P.s: could she be hinting us? To have a break?

High High!

After 55 mins of refreshing, heart pounding, *@&^#$*&-ing, emo-ing, kan-chiong-ing, fingers dancing, communicating, text-ing, msn-ing, drama-ing and etc, I finally got me and friends the SNSD tickets!!!!! It is a hassle when the server can handle the damn heavy network traffic, and sort of went down, they then started to implement a queue system that doesn't make sense at all, the whole situation is like fighting a cyber war. And if this is a war, we have soldiers stationed at Yio Chu Kang, Jurong West and Bukit Timah, and all uses different network, platform and browsers.

Gotten the SNSD tix, and moreover it is the standing area infront of the stage, is winning of a great battle, and it somehow feels like striking a lottery. Especially after going through the huge disappointment last time round, where we queued at the sistic outlet, uses the phone browser at the same time but eventually all the effort went into drain.

I'm feeling so high today.... High~ High~ I'm so High~ and seriously it is a good day to me (and even when during the CO prac at NYP just now, we were also going through Good day for the first time).

But.... now got another problem.... Hmmmm i shall not disclose that in my blog. Not sure is that possible.

Goodbye "LEGS", HELLO "ABS"

I'm totally disappointed with the organiser for SNSD Concert that is to be held in Singapore.


Due to the fact that SISTIC has a very DUMB ticketing system, there are plenty of technical errors. Their system is not catered, and never will it be prepare, for such a big event where there is such a huge network traffic.

In the end I didn't get the tickets for the SNSD concert, about 4 hours of my life gone to waste. Sales were supposed to start at 10am, me and my friend started queueing at about 8 plus in the morning at Bishan SISTIC. And ya know where were both of us in the queue? Near to the toilet!!! Ticket sales start from 10am sharp, but the queue isn't moving much at all, and by 12pm we moved only by a few inch/steps because some decided to give up. Knowing that there may be such a big huha going to happened, we are a friend to even help us buy the tix from home with her OCBC card.

We saw from tweets and fb messages that few got their tickets, and majority hit technical hitch and those at other branches of the SISTIC encounter the same problem like us... QUEUE ARE NOT MOVING AT ALL! By 10.20am... one of the staff walked towards the queue and announced "The tickets for SNSD concert is already sold out" x 3..... HUH?! within 20 min the tix are gone?! and then the organiser is still sending message thru fb and twitter that there are still tickets left, please be patient.

by 12pm, we decided to give up... went back empty handed....actually not really went bad with grieve and disappointment! Fortunately, i only wasted 4 hours... Some even wasted the whole 12 hours without any chance on buying the tix. The camp throughout the night for.... nothing.

Well, since i missed th opportunity to see the "legs" (SNSD), perhaps i can consider to go see the "abs" (2pm)

HELLO!!! JIU MING AH!

The ability to take a long nap is amazing, and I felt so contented. that should be how's life are suppose to be I guess, since resting is a way to go further.

Anyway, I'm back to watching WGM, and this time round is the Jang Woo and Eunjung couple. there have been quite a number of episodes on this couple, and if i seriously need to watch it, and have hell lots of episodes to catch. Hmmm... this couple able to catch my attention to watch further, shall see whether how's the next few episodes.

(Becoz AiHao is not much of help at all..., and <----- have been away for so long, so a lot of things he isn't aware of) JIU MING AH!!!!!!!!

REPEAT PEAT PEAT PEAT

The first time when i took a ride on my team lead's car, the radio was playing a rather weird song (back then). My first comment was "Is this an English song? It sounds a bit like korean song eh. keep on beep beep beep beep beep.....". Back then I didn't really focus much on the lyrics.


And on my subsequent ride on team lead's car, we will always hear this song being aired. And our comments for this song is always much or less the same. "Huh? This song again?!" and Yesterday...

Momo: Beep beep beep beep beep *sing along with the song*
Team Lead (TL): Hahahaha
Momo: What's the title of this song actually huh~
Team Lead: Dunno~ You take out your impressive phone lor~
Momo: Shazam huh? Beep Beep Beep Beep *sing along again*
Team Lead: actually this song is not that bad after hearing so many times leh
Momo: Quite addictive actually
Team Lead: And dunno why every time when only got you around then i get to hear this song being aired
Momo: Huh? Got so "zhun" mah? Only when i around, class 95 will then air this song? They got sensor implant in your car is it? LOL
Team Lead: Yah Lah!~

I present you "Love You Like A Love Song" by Selena Gomez & The Scene


Opppsss so is actually REPEAT PEAT PEAT PEAT and not Beep Beep Beep Beep~


The cover version sounds nice too, a different kind of feel

Battery drained out


Having only 2 hours of sleep from yesterday midnight till now is totally no kidding. I'm still wondering how I managed to survive during the whole Co practice, which is straight after my work. Now on my way home, I feel like im going to  sleep any minute. And  that is why I wrote this post to keep me awake till I reach my stop.

Totally shacked out... face and scalp started to have that sleepy itchy feeling.

Finally... The d day is here...


The d day for the system where all our team mates have nightmare on is finally here. After a long battle, we have finally reached one of the critical date. The word is "finally". if nothing goes wrong, all our efforts is worth it. one the other hand, if anything goes wrong, or the customer's rep went crazy and decided to halt the deployment.... then.... doomz! it's gonna be another long battle with no ending!

10 hours later is the deployment liao ~ starting to feel nervous and sian. sianz is because I need to wake up at 4am and make my way to data farm, while nervous is.... if anything goes wrong, I need to resolve it immediately. all the butterflies are nowe breeding in my stomache. the worst is I gonna stuck with ihow at data farm!!!! too bad we really got no where to place ihow le. wherever he is, hey cant be of much help. as hey knows they place well, he is just with me just to give me "route" directions if necessary.

once again, I hope the ppl up there cant ke lian us and help us out. xiao ming ~ need your paranormal power in someway too...

My Firs Experience as the Groom's Brother

I got mixed feeling now. I don't quite like the idea of getting married due to all the hassle and bills that cost a bomb!~ But somehow throughout the whole process, you get to feel that joy and blissful feeling. Perhaps that is due to the blessings from relatives and friends and perhaps also the couple's ancestors. Anyway, today's main characters (the couple) is a loving couple who pak tor since their JC days.....

Let the pictures do the talking (because I'm rather tired to type now LOL!) Pictures speaks a thousand words. Anyway, this is also the first time I became "Brothers" in my 26 yrs of life. Really very gong gong and dunno what is going on. Must also thanks those rather experience sisters for 手下留情, they really treat us not bad during the Gate Crashing Game. Somehow I'm rather guilty, because it seems like I did nothing much~ =X

Preparing to set off to Bride's Home

The Groom and Brothers (before gate crashing)

Suan (sour) Tian (Sweet) Ku (Bitter) La (Spicy)

Hot ah!~

Another obstacle~

Infectious Zombie



Decided to take mc this morning. Really can't stand the fatigue of fighting the flu monster n throat monster whole night.

According to doc's diagnosis,  I'm suffering from throat infection, cough, flu, fever, and eye infection. And the eye infection may be contagious!!! Contagious eye infection...  really sounds like a zombie.

For the mentioned illnesses,  I'm given two days mc,  five medicine n one eye drop. *ka ching* feeling so Drowsy now~ good night to all~

Red Eyed Boy


Yesterday I'm having a swollen eye on  my right eye, and today though that eye has recover by slighly abit.... but it is still red. Moreover, the other eye has also started to turn red.

It was as if I have gone through a failed plastic surgery yesterday.  And for today.... Am I turning into a zombie soon?!!!!

Oct 9, 2011

Swollen Eyed Boy




I just woke up from a long and some sort ridiculous dream - alien invasion, ghost horror invasion,  zombies marching, human kind running for their lives, weirdos......

when I woke up, I noticed something is very wrong with my eye, it seems to be crumpled on the right, I can't fully open my eyes to it's normal size even after some blinking. And initially I still thought is some "shit" dried up and causes that effect( OK I know is pretty disgusting)  but it doesn't look like it.

My right eye is really swollen!  Shit man! I still planning to watch 10ep of anime by today... I can't be watching using only my left eye right? Aiya~ off to bed again.


Oct 8, 2011

Im not singaporean?


???????¿???????¿??????¿??????

People mistaken me as cheena! What is this! All these people truly have problems with their eyes or mind!!! I dun talk like or act like them, as far as I know, and yet I can still be mistaken.

I can only blame our "garment"... letting in so many "elite", in the end our own citizens become foreigners, or being treated like one. 

Alright, positive thinking. I'm a talent that brings misery to people.  Gd enough?

Oct 7, 2011

if you don't mean it...

Saw one of my friend's post and find it I'm not the only one. I'm also in the same shoe as him.


I shall summarise on what had actually happened to him...

- One night, his school friend jio him out for supper because both of them stay quite near to one another and they have not been going out for supper for quite some time already.
- My friend was mugging at that moment. And since he is rather pek cek about his revision and uncompleted assignment, he acknowledge the "invitation" by replying a positive answer.
- His friend messaged back with "Wah Lau! Joking only lah! U really got the time to go meh?! School work so hectic and you still have time to take a break........ (craps)....."
- My friend felt rather weird and angry.... Becoz it is the other party who initiated the supper idea, but it seems like my friend is to be blame for not rejecting.

Dumbass are really everywhere or maybe a lot of these people actually have very serious split personality. I have also encountered this type of incident before!!!

- One day, so and so asked me if I am going to participate and go to XXXXXX
- but i firmly remain my stand on not to attend that XXXXXXX
- On that actual day, so and so asked me again if I am going.\
- being rather sian of replying, i just sms back a "No."
- the other replied "I know. I ask Shuang only."
- Being rather busy with my workload at that moment, and my mood is in a terrible state, i replied in a Piss-ful manner "ok. next time i SHOULD not reply to such message"
- the other party replied back with some nonsense "You should reply indirectly, should let people guess your reply .............(craps)................."

I don't understand this type of people - Never reply also cannot, answer liao also cannot. What do you expect? Answer a very simple question need to treat it as a Taiwan Hokkien Drama? Drag for 300 over sms just to tell you "NO!" We already respect you by replying to the message liao, and yet we still kannah blame.


There is also some cases whereby most of us may come across.

"Aiyer, why never ask me?"

"Why I was not informed!"

As if ask already you will come. For goodness sake, if you don't mean it, DONT ASK & DON'T SAY!!!! People just get irritated.


One word to describe you people LAME!

Oct 5, 2011

Yesterday night, I was thinking about some sensitive issue... I was thinking "What if my so-and-so passed away suddenly? Will that implies to Home Alone forever in my case?"


And this morning, I received a whatsapp message that someone's so-and-so passed away. Frankly speaking, I was shocked at first, and I believed everyone is, as no one knows what had happened previously. When comes to this kind of situation, I really not sure how to express my condolences and not knowing how to express it in words. Sometimes i feel that a hug may express everything, but as an Asian, me as well as anybody that I know usually don't do that so often. Like the Hokkien's saying "Giah Pai Seh".

Today is also my third day after the long and suffering run. Yesterday is still okay, with a bit of ache. Today is terrible~ every steps i made is a pain. The way I walk is as if i'm stumbling my feet. Perhaps I should really exercise more often now and then. I have lead a rather "healthy" lifestyle for the passed 3 days. I totally taken away the dinner from my diet, and replace it with fruits. My weight really went down but approx 0.8 kg~ Hope I'm not seeing the wrong thing.

Last but not least, i need to stop imagining things~ or is that indirect sixth sense?

Oct 3, 2011

I'm so shack

When was the last time I used the term "I'm so shacked!" ? I cant recall, because it has been months since I last do physical training activities. The recent wedding banquet that I have attended truly wake me up from my indulgence on Food... Snacks... Junk Food... TIDBITS!


Lots of clothes, which I'm once able to don on, look as if a wrapper for Sieo Bar Zhang! Even the everyday formal wear also seems to be tighter. Everyday after work, I felt so difficult to breathe because the pants are so tight that i felt like i'm suffocating.

Well, perhaps it is due to all that stress that I got from this shitty project. Stress = Contantly Eating = Sleep late = Eat More... 8 mths plus in this project made me gain 5kg on my weight and 40plus blood pressure unit. SO!!!! I have made up my mind! Need to control diet and at least 30min of exercise everyday! (frankly speaking... i not sure how long i can go on... LOL!)

Anyway, ran to two Bishan Parks (one nearer to bishan and the other nearer to AMK), then walk back home. Throughout the whole journey, I do walk too. I'm not superman who can run even without training. My feets were numb when i tried to walked back, as if like they were not my feet. The bishan park not fully complete yet, but some portion of the park has been opened to the public. The Mac @ Bishan Park which is nearer to Bishan seems not a bad place to hang out. something like the one near to Courts at AMK. Running track also seems wider, and there are slopes for the running track, which is sort of a physical challenge now.

Alright, hope i still can walk tomorrow. heeehee too kua zhang liao~

Oct 2, 2011

i do~ i do~

it has been quite a long time since i attended a wedding banquet. Yesterday, I attended my aunt's wedding banquet. My aunt is just 4 yrs older than me, dun be too surprise as I even have uncles that are still in sec sch and pri sch. Our family's hierarchy is just weird somehow.


Anyway, my aunt and her beloved have been staying in Melbourne for a few years. According to the speech made by the groom, they were actually friends at first. The groom manage to "psycho" her to follow him to Melbourne to study arts. She didn't reject.... and from then, I have not been able to see her during our every year's new year gathering and house visiting. Well, they have already registered for Marrige in Australia, so im not sure why do they have Solemnisation again yesterday.

The banquet is in western style, there's a cocktail reception before the banquet. It is held at the Klapson boutique hotel and at a damn odd hours... early in the morning 11.45am!!! the zam char (serve tea) traditional custom is held at the lobby of the hotel O.o weird isnt it...??? all of us waited for about 1 hr before the actual event starts.

The banquet is located at the eighteen floor of the building, a rather spectacular view where there's a view of the sea, but there's certain obstruction by the cranes and containers (PSA harbour is just nearby i think). I believed that location will be even better during night time.

In my honest opinion, i feel that vegetarian food seems much nicer in terms of presentation and... taste? nothing can goes too wrong with vegetarian food. on the other hand, non-vegetarian food has one disgusting dish. Heard from my cousin that the fish is not handled properly, scales are still intact with the skin, can eve feel that fish "aroma".

My preference it thatIi simply adore the dessert!!! dessert is the best!!! cantonese mango sago~ slurp slurp. Dishes such as the char mee (fried noodles), roti prata,platter, and the starter salad is not bad too. oh... and the dishes are served by pax, so each of us will get our very own share. servings made in this kind of style has its pros n cons. everyone has the same portion so pretty fair, and becoz of this u cant have extra if that particular dish tempts you every moment.

while they served that dessert, i keep on teasing ah girl (one of my cousin). non vegetarian will have that 雪蛤, which is the flabby chin of the toad. my cousin likes it alot, but didnt know that it is that flabby chin. so i keep on pointing the chin and made the sound of toad to her, *gua gua* hmmm sort of remind me 趙哥. lol!!! perhaps after this she wont want to eat flabby chin again.

Today, there's a malay wedding under my void deck. their traditions n style is roughly the same, but the background sound is more of a pop song liao... they even played "i know u know how~..." damn no link! and occasionally u get to hear some out of tune singing that is annoying. even the baby and dog of my neighbors are crying for help.

is this the month of wedding and marriages? i gotta catch two red bombs this month leh.

我的第一碗小碗面



Finally!!!!!!! i get a taste of 小碗面。for the past 26 years of my life, i have never know what xiao wan mian tasted like. Partly because I didnt get to try it during childhood days, as parents usually won't get this food for kids, and when I'm taking secondary school studies, I have already started my vegetarian diet. So I don't really have the chance to try out this rather popular food.

I accidentally found this dish in one of the kopitiam at Serangoon North. This stall has been there for quite some time, and I did patronise this stall before, but it was only until today then I know they are selling this dish recently.

I'm so glad!~ ::>_<:: Fortunately, my session at the client side ends early, or else I may still not even get to try it for another 26 years! i'm so touched and guess I'm still fortunate in some way.

My First Trip to USS

(WARNING! THIS IS A DAMN LONG POST DUE TO ALL THE IMAGES)

My first trip to Universal Studio Singapore was not as anticipated as what I have thought. Why? Read this blog post and you will know why. Anyway, since the tix are rather expensive and also being the first ever theme park experience (in Singapore) that I ever have (The fact that I never went to Escape theme park), I took the opportunity to capture plenty of photos with my camera and phone, which both eventually went dead due to battery exhausted.

The trip was planned a few days after my birthday as a belated gift for myself. Hurhur~ since when have I not buy things myself right? Alright, count it as another excuse lor, but I seriously need to take a break and enjoy though.


Finally~~~~ I'm here at last...


Going in clockwise direction, this is the first ride that we have come across. The ride is something like a river boat ride, and the theme is about how all the main characters of "Madagascar" travelled in crate and landed on a particular destination.


Alex the lion get caught in action~


Up next, is a merry go round ride. A pretty short one though, as you will go round and round for a total of about 4 rounds. That is enough for me, but I'm not sure about kids. Perhaps they hope the merry-go-round just never stop.


Straight after you finished the merry-go-round ride, you will be welcome by this "Out-of Singapore" view. Hmmmm.... they should consider building a man-made mountain behind all those building structures. LOL!


along the way, you will come across some merchandise, food and shopping carts. With plenty of food being available, the only thing you need to worry about is your.... cash? 5 minutes along the way, you will get to see the home of Shrek. I'm so impress by my photography skills, this look so real isn't it? Ahahah CRAP!


As we all know, since the house of Shrek can be seen, Far Far Away can't be that Far Away isn't it? After all, it's just a..... theme park.


The first ride of "Far Far Away" zone. This is a mini roller coaster as compared to Battle Star Galatica. More suitable for the faint-hearted, or a warm up for battlestar roller coaster (beginner's level)



Look at this image, the ride is much more smaller than Battle Star! So... this is just a small kick for me.



The "frog prince" fountain is just beside the ride. It is one of the place for visitors to "relac-one-corner".



The Far far away palace. Very grand and magnificent isn't it?



The ride in Far Far Away palace is a 4D movie. 3d visual images, spraying of water, wind blows, and vibration of the chair. My comment, you must choose the "right" section to sit, some of the chair shake vigorously, while some just vibrate.... like mine. -____-"' Frankly speaking, the ride just occupied at most 2 levels of the castle, i wonder what are the remaining levels of the castle for... warehouse? Office?



The DONKEY LIVE SHOW is sort of a interactive show, where there's a MC and the DONKEY itself. In short, it is sort of a variety show format. If you wanna interact with the DONKEY~ you should snatch for the first 4 rows... and of course the centre section. For me, I find it pretty boring and. Hmmm... perhaps "LAME" is the word. (DONKEY LIVE SHOW! DONKEY LIVE SHOW IN 5 MORE MINS!... no matter what time I passed by that area, I always heard the theme ride staff shouting this. Mybe not enough visitor for this attraction?)



Half a day is gone, we decided to go for a lunch break at the food court. Aunties can never forget their auntie lifestyle~ (My OS: OF SO MANY FOOD BRANCHES, WHY CHOOSE FOODCOURT?!)



This skeleton dino just stand in the middle of the food court. Really a "replica" of Jurassic Park's Visitor Centre. Sorry for the dark quality of the photo. The food court is very bright, something is very wrong with my cam.



Guess how much this food court food cost? $15!!!! $10.50 for the Sheng Mian and the beancurd pudding, $3.50 for Ice Milo!!! I might as well spend it on something more worthwhile rather than on foodcourt food. See nah~ choose food court food. But....... the sheng mian is not that bad lah~ Just the Sheng Mian is not bad. nth else to comment. Anyway, i manage to make full use of the service they provide. The staff help me to bring my food over to my dinning table. I can't handle two trays alone.



One of the two rides in "The Lost World" zone. Dino-Soarin is another ride much more suitable for faint-hearted and kids. Well, I didn't take this ride, because it just keep going round and round and up or down (up-down can be controlled).



The other ride in this zone is the Canopy Flyer. You could see part of the track above the Pterodactyl figure (the flying dino). The Canopy Flyer is much more interesting, but rather short. Water World is closed.... Rrrrrr~ what a shame.



The descendant of Pterodactyl.... A well trained Singapore bird that stand and walk behind the yellow line.



The giant statues of Egypt welcome you to "Ancient Egypt" zone.



Take a closer look at the statue, there are actually "arts" beneath the stone they carried... Oh~



The rock decorations of "Ancient Egypt" zone.... Hmmm... nothing much to comment. Anyway, the rocks and mini mountain sure give you that extreme Hot egypt dessert feel. In actual fact, the day i went to USS is really damn HOT! Can't stand the heat, I almost developed a flu on a bright sunny day.



Anyway, this ride reminds me of the tour-around ride of Genting Highland. Oh yah hor~ this park is still own by Resorts World, which is the same owner. This ride just let you tour part of the zone, have a good look of the zone..... nothing to look forward though.


The extreme tall ang moh that goes around to scared people.



Taking pic with the "ancient egypt" queen. A very tanned lady eh~



Walking further in into the Ancient Egypt zone = approaching the Revenge of the mummy indoor roller coaster. Woot~



Before the indoor roller coaster ride, we took a pic with another mascot. A macho and tall ang moh guy. He is really tall, at least of about 1.9m ++ ?



The entrance to "Revenge of the mummy" roller coaster ride. The ambience it try to create is pretty splendid. A dark and gloomy ambience, eerie sound effect... it is a waste they didn't make the entrance or environment into sort of a "haunted-house" attraction. That will be amazing eh? Haunted house follow by indoor attraction ride. Anyway, the roller coaster is sort of a intermediate level for me but not that heart bumping enough eh. I'm just anyhow yell and shout for the sake of creating that mood. One of my cousin felt that. the other one.... Keep on screaming all the way, without any pause. That is the longest scream i ever heard. LOL! Oh well, The rides has got some fire effect, at times I'm more afraid of the fire than the ride itself. What a weird guy I am... hmmm.... Oh! And there is a photo kiosk where you can purchase a glimpse of yourself during the ride. We didn't purchase it as it look damn ugly, even for me when i was not even frighten at all. Got ghost lah~


Next is the Sci-Fi city!!!! THe battle star galatica roller coaster ride!!!!!! It is my biggest disappointment, as I'm not able to take a ride due to the pressure that one of my cousin and I are facing. We are "niam" by the aunties that we should not play with our life -_____-"' I'LL BE BACK AGAIN!!!!



After a biggest disappointment, we head towards the Hollywood zone. Feeling damn sian, everything just look damn sian to me..... walking around taking photos and photos. My cousin who is also sian asked me. "You know what you are taking (photo) anot?". And i replied, "No idea too, just anyhow take lor". So... i guess when you are sian, you just anyhow take photos without any aim.



The one and only taxi that is allowed in USS.... but it wont move~



The magnificent Lion Statue.... Majulah~ Singapura~ Wait~ isn't it Hollywood or Washington city?



The 24hour closed subway that wont bring you to anywhere



Street dance performance along the street



one aunty playing with "steam", the other act as if really crossing a road with ongoing traffic.



Buildings again.... Oh! There's a Hollywood stunt effect ride nearby. The disaster effect is not bad, we got a bit wet due to water splash. The Hurricane or thunderstorm effect it tried to produce look rather real. Perhaps due to Steven Spielberg's contributions that is look so real?



ARGH!!!!! So near and yet so far... =(



HUH?! you mean that's all?!!!



We went back to Madagascar zone to see if we have the luck to bump into those mascot. I WANNA TAKE PICTURES WITH THEM TO OVERCOME MY DISAPPOINTMENT!!!! and also to make my tix more worth it~ Time now is only 5.15pm... let's tour around again.



Thanks to my cousin's beauty, we manage to catch the attraction of pussy in the boots. We were actually resting at the area infront of the "Enchanted Airways". Not long after that, we saw pussy coming our direction, WITH PLENTY OF PPL chasing behind him. Immediately, we took out our cam, just wanna take photo of it and not with it, because we know for sure there gonnah be long queue and we know our luck is always bad. Guess what?!!! Pussy approached my cousin, and touches her face with his paws, then signal the staff that he wanna stay here to take photos.... So in the end. we became the first in the queue to take photo with Pussy. THANKS TO AH MEI MAN!



Ah Ting, jsut in time came back from her enchanted airway roller coaster ride. She didnt get to sit during the previous round, becoz she was rather scared of heights~ Oh yesh! she is the one with the longest non-stop scream. LOL!



about 15 to 20 min later, pussy decided to change spot. Before he left, he approached us again. Wahahahaha! Mascot Ba Mei leh! Pussy tried to touch Ah Mei's face again, den signal her to call him (using the call me hand sign). In this photo, pussy tried to tao hao the aunties.



Pussy bidding us good bye~ When pussy left, i asked ah Mei "Pussy got give you HP number meh?", and Ah Mei answered with "No Leh! I den dun wanna to call leh~"..... Hmmmm..... since he never give, why he signal that call me hand sign? What a clumsy cat he is! Ba Mei also never Ba properly~



Heading back to madagascar zone. Yeah!~~~ You better watch out, you better not cry.... Lion Alex coming to town~



I like to move it move it~ ...... I like to MOVE IT! what a cute dance from the penguins and the other characters from madagascar.



The three Kung Fu Musketeers~



Alex is always so cheerful from whatever angle



King Julien XIII and my cousin just envy of my height, they tried to press me down.



We decided to head home after a long tiring day, without even waiting for the fireworks. 9pm is just too many hours for us to wait. Hmmmm.... I wanna rush home watch drama too. LOL!



Today is really our lucky day. On our way out, we met woody!!!! Initially, we already saw woody over at Hollywood zone, but the staff stopped us from taking photo with it as they are rushing back to change shift i guess. The staff did told us that woody will be near the entrance at certain timing. But we didnt get to meet woody during that timing lor. so we guess we got no fate le. This is like tio 4D!!!!



Beside woody, we also saw the female version of woody nearby. When we wanna take photo with her, woody came "ka-jiao" the female woody. There was sort of a dram at that moment. Ms Woody and Mr Woody had sort of an argument becoz Mr. woddy "fancy" over my cousin, and Ms woody was rather sad and annoyed. So..... i hug Ms. Woody, and Mr. Woddy tried to kiss Ah Ting in this photo (but it seems like woody trying to eat her up LOL!)



They are still a loving couple eventually, they are back together when we left that spot. Animals really have short term memory~



PO!!!!! That kungfu panda!!! we tried to queue to have a photoshoot with it!



But when out turn comes, the staff told us that PO is leaving, and we will have no chance even if we queue. ::>_<:: We take a photo of it lor.... i wish to bash his stomach somehow. Wahahahah!



The first and last merchandise shop of USS. The entrance... which is also the exit



The iconic universal studio~ turn and turn, seems like a fortune wheel. hurhur


That all I have to share.... what a tiring saturday. Anyway, I gonna go back for the battlestar and transfomer!!!!
