Halloween night at Universal Studio Singapore

This year, I have decided to purchase the Halloween ticket from Universal Studio Singapore as they gotten pretty good reviews for the event..

Thus, I purchased the ticket and decided to give it a try on 17/10 Friday night as I am thinking that it might get crowded as the date draws nearer to end of the month. So, gotten 4 tickets at S$204. The event starts from 7.30pm and end around 1.30am.. I went there after my work on Friday and the crowd was magnificent! 

Reached around 8pm.. No problem getting in..Slow moving but smooth. Decided to try Sherk roller coaster..waited around 5mins..well..quite ok as it was meant for kids (I'm scared of heights) ..then walk around the theme park and saw this Alien ground.. So we went in..at first, the quene was smooth..and it stops. We were in the quene for an hour before I get to go into the alien ground..really disappointed as it was so crowded and hot! It really tests our patients there..

Had a quick bite at the cafe before continuing the rest of the night roaming around.. 



Went to Sci-fi section and decided to try the transformer ride..I never been on that before! Waited another 40mins before we managed to catch the ride. The 10mins ride was amazing.. I never tried something like this before.. 4D show with simulated ride.. Worth waiting definitely!!

Time flies pretty fast Becoz we spent so much time waiting..lol.. Waited for the show at 12.15am where all the saturns capture the zombies..we ended the night after the show as it was really late and exhausted waiting..


                          Chaotic 


No doubt, I can feel that USS had invested a lot in the event..circus, shows, rides and zombies..but it was way too crowded and packed.. Average waiting is between 40mins to 70mins.. Pretty disappointed but I have fun! That's matters :)

Another 48hrs in KL

It's been a hectic week..it's Oct and the start of peak period!! Had been busy since Sept after my reservist but can really feel the stress and composure now..Been working from 8/8.30am to 7.30/8pm and even Sunday have to work half a day to catch up with the loss time when I attending meetings...6 more weeks to go..

Anyway, finished work at 6pm on Friday 3/10 and drove up to KL..it's a long weekend in Singapore and Malaysia and I do expect a jam at the custom but I was wrong.. Custom was so smooth and took less than 30mins to clear both immigrations.. After 4 hours of driving, finally arrived in KL at 10.30pm.. Check in and went for supper..subsequently, went for drinking and end the day at 2am..

Day 2 - I'm quite lucky as I managed to get free upgrade and gotten the twin towers view from my room.. Went to Chinatown and central market in the afternoon and pretty lucky that I managed to escape from the heavy downpour at 3pm.. Went to pavilion and KLCC for somemore shopping and of course, my favorite madam Kwan nasi lemak and hui lau Shan mango dessert..yummy! End the night early in my bed around 10pm Becoz I was really exhausted from walking the whole day! 


Day 3, check out and went to Desa park for a walk.  Nothing much there..but good place if u have dog to walk them, or cycling, or jogging.. 
                       Desa park

Head back to Singapore around 6pm.. Had dinner in KL and another 4 hours drive..the night didn't just end there! Went for drinking again after arriving in Singapore as Monday is a holiday..this is kind of a relaxing and laid back trip which I really needed it to get away from work for a while..I'm now recharge and ready to face the peak period! Awwww...
