Singapore pt1

As most of you know i went to Singapore last week from Tuesday to this week's Monday. Glad i arrived back home on time cos on the next day i had a call from Mofat for an interview. The interview was yesterday and i'm quite scared of the results...It's just that my interview was quite short, though i did talk and talk but i still feel it was really short. Hopefully the result is an acceptance rather than the opposite. I really want to expand my potential there...

As for Singapore it was awesome. Thanks to Shauqi for giving me a few tips of where to go and what to do. I flew off around 9.50am due to a technical delay and arrive Singapore around 2hrs later. Ratna and her cousin was in the same flight as me too. For the first 15 mins we were quite lost in Changi airport. The place is freaking huge without proper signs! Seriously they need to put up more useful arrows of where to go for arrivals.

whats so significant abt this cloud? It looks like UK!

My mum picked me up, had an assign driver for her (weseh) and tarus sent Ratna and her cousin Zidah to their hotel. I stayed at Royal plaza in Orchard Rd where i guess most Bruneians stay (since every morning for breakfast nampak org brunei saja). So the first day in Singapore I thought i just survey around Orchard road, check out the hype and the stores shauqi recommended for me. Here are some of the scenery around Orchard Rd.

This was around cineleisure and 313.

Limited Edition: Vault- Shauqi told me about this place. Its no longer in Hereen, moved to 313@Somerset. The store which sells the rarest and limited edition shoes ever produce. This is shoe haven. The most expensive shoe? Forgot the name but if im not mistaken it has a price tag of $1500. Baik ku bali IPhone. Below is the picture inside the vault itself, the store is bigger and better looking.

Paragon, home to Gucci and other unaffordable items...

The recently open Ion plaza. From afar...

and upclose...

The thing i like about this building is the random synchronization of glowing lights on it's wall

The next day i went to Universal studios with Ratna and Zidah. Good thing it only rained early in the morning.

I had breakfast at banquet in vivo city which was just before the bridge to Sentosa Island. And this cruise ship is just humongous.

Upon arrival...and i could already see the castle, wait this shouldn't be disneyland

A must take picture :D

Upon entering Universal studios, this is the 'Hollywood' section.

The Battlestar Gallactica rollercoaster, the first of it's kind. Two rollercoasters intertwined and at some point the difference in distance between the rollercoasters are just inches apart. Too bad its close for maintenance, D'OH!

Far Far Away kingdom! The castle houses the 4D shrek film and what an experience! I guess the screen couldn't contain the characters movement any further :P A must stop if ur in universal studios.

Just like in the movie...

Too bad we didn't get to take a picture with him

Shrek's home, no swamp involve

I just think this is a funny logo lol. This was in the Jurassic Park section. There's an interesting ride there involving fast flowing rapids. Again, unfortunate for us it was close for maintenance.

The egyptian section. Inside the pyramid is an indoor rollercoaster where you ride through the darkness. This was another new, fun and scary experience. Scary in a way that the ride was in complete darkness and at one point they used real fire torches to make the scene lively. They also use holograms which was pretty cool.

Marilyn Monroe...Ratna told me previously they had an uglier version, good thing they replaced her :P

Frankenstein!

The effects of nature creating a shadow which looks like i peed in my pants.

New York New York~

Maybe the type of cars the mob used in the '60s.

My personal favourite...

Childhood cartoon sensation, Woody Woodpecker.

These guys were the most entertaining group of the day. Madagascar section.

Yeah, a big ass ship crashed into the theme park.

The theme park is quite small compare to other foreign theme parks i had gone to. Unless the battlestar gallactica and rapids are open i guess its not worth the visit, not for $66 that is. If you're going there for your children then maybe yes. For a fact, the park isn't officially open yet. And that the battlestar has been in the news several times for technical difficulties. I guess maintenance could be quite a challenge. Nevertheless i had fun, taking pictures with celebrities and accompanied by two awesome friends. Okay will continue next time with part 2...
