UniVerSaL StuDiOs SinGaPoRe

visited universal studio this easter. it's really a fun fun place!!

all rides that we took are fun. even the seemingly harmless rides are exciting.

im not kidding, but the roller coaster behind us is the scariest ride i ever had. there'r actually 2 different rollar coasters running at the same time each time. the scarier one will be the red one. it's sooo scary that i literally teared after the ride. it's either my fear threshold is lower due to the lower age, or the ride is really superrrr scary. probably also a wrong choice that it was one of the first rides that we went on.

one thing to be prepared of... is to QUEUE. it's really queue queue queue and queue. queue time varies from 30mins to 120mins. yes!! 2hrs queue juz for that 1min ride!!! super exaggerating one!! and the day we went was a superrr hot day.... real jialek.

our lunch. $10.50 per plate. woah.

my super long water botter :) $14.50. each refill is $2. juz a plastic bottle. i bet the cost price is at most $1. do bring ur own water supply if u are visiting. mineral water will cost $2 and bottled drinks are $3. but one good thing is there are many water cooler in there. so long u have a bottle, u are quite safe.

that is a real creature that the crew was holding on to!!!

that day we went in was extended opening hour. so we have more time to explore around. fireworks came on at 9. spectacular. and towards night time, the q became much much shorter. many of the popular rides only need 5-10mins wait!! lucky for us! if known earlier, i wouldnt even spend my time queuing in the day when it was sooo sooo hot!!!

more pics-taking after the fireworks.

our dinner. also $10.50. well, more worth it than the chix rice rite...

pics that we bought back. $18 each. i tot the packaging is really nice and we were nicely captured, so though bit ex, we still bought.

all in all, it's highly recommended to give USS a visit. i've heard of people who bought the year-pass and i tot it was silly. but after visiting, i think it's worth it!! the rides are really good, the shows are also good, the staff are friendly, the place is clean, it's very orderly and a great experience.

and in there, i do feel proud of singapore. such a small place, yet able to have such a good quality amusement park. i can imagine a group of tourists - the young can go to the park, the old can go to the casinoes, while the tais tais can go to the shopping centres. there's really a place for everyone. real cool.

pls go visit!!!

That P.E.R.I.O.D of The Month

im sorry to have to discuss about this soo openly, but.... grrrr....

it's never easy being a woman. how we are easily bothered by our appearance, how we always worry about our men, how we are easily sterotyped as the weaker counterparts, the indecisive, the emotional, the troublesome......

and to top it off, we have to bear that EVERY MONTH.

i dont know about u, but for me, for most of the months, it's terrible!

it's pain, pain and pain. some months, the pain is soooo bad that my legs will go numb. i cant sit, i cant lie down, i cant do anything becuz regardless of what i do, the pain juz would not go away. there's nothing i can do, except to pop painkillers.

but pain aside, it's the 'emotional rollar coaster' that i really really hate to ride on. not always, but some months, i will get really depressed, pessimistic, stress, moody.... tears will juz drop, i'll flare at anything, tots start running wild, i get depressed over everthing, anything!

IT'S PLAIN IRRITATING!!!!!

y are we made to go through this every month????!

in a month, there are only 4 weeks. if 1 week is known as the pre-mense blues, and 1 week is known as the post-mense blues, and 1 week is the actual week, effectively, in a month, there will only be 1 week that has no blues.

gosh. how sad can that be??!

perhaps i should just get pregnant and spare myself the agony for the next 9mths.

sick!!!!!!!!!!!!!

another 8 months to this yr's xmas... times flies!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dinner on fri night with ex-dept colleagues. ex-superior got a promotion and he gave us a treat. venue at seafood paradise at defu lane.

it's a famous restaurant in a ulu place.. speciality is their butter crabs.

i think the food is  average. for the butter crabs, the sauce is good, but the freshness is soo soo only. not all that fresh. but something special lah, cuz i tot it's that kind of deep fried butter crab, but it turned out to be the creamy kind and u can dip the buns with the sauce.  the black pepper crab was not nice.

*******

bought these 3-d puzzles at times bookshop. got big ones with 40+ pieces, but we only bought the small ones cuz they are cuter and it's always 'safer' to start with the easy ones first.

come with 14pcs.. and... u think it's easy???

no way man!!!

for the apple, hubb and me spent a few hrs on it and still couldnt work it out! then i surrendered and hubb continued till 2am, but to no avail....

it was only the next day that i finally completed it!!!

then i started on the star and it became much easier.

think i know the trick to it liao :)

very pretty, arent them?

thinking if i should next buy the bear and try :)

Still UnHappy

march is finally coming to an end.

it seems to be such a long looong loooong month.

as mentioned, march is the toughest month in a year, cuz it has the most nbr of working days and there is no public hols.

and to top it off, it follows after a short month - feb.

in the past, march is an impt month. cuz it's the B month. and in the past few years, it had been a happy month.

but this yr march... is really a sad month for me.

talked to boss. though i understood and accepted her explanation, i still cant bring myself to term with it. deep deep down inside, im still filled with disappointment, disgust, unjust, unhappiness and sorrow. 

it's soo bad that i even dreamt abt it at night(s).

after all these turmoil, this is what i deserve.

dont know what else to say.
dont know how to describe.
dont know where to go from here.

why?

Unhappy

I feel like shit.. i look like shit...

my neck hurts.. my shoulder hurts.. my limbs hurt....

and most of it all...

my heart hurts.

i feel soooooo lousy. :(
