A Day at USS with le Sisters - Universal Studios Student Season Pass!

Wednesday, 5 June 2013

The 3 of us got the Student Annual Pass!
Our temporary passes to enter USS before we get our actual "annual" pass :)
They call it the annual/season pass. Not really a real annual pass though.
Annual is supposed to be a year =P

From USS website:
6 Months unlimited entry for students now only at $88*!
For a limited time only, present your student pass and purchase a Universal Studios Singapore Student Season Pass for only $88. This gives you 6 months unlimited access to your favourite rides and shows, as well as exclusive dining and shopping offers, from now till the end of November.

*Terms & Conditions apply. Valid for purchase until 30 June 2013 for Students aged 13 years & up. Season Pass usage and benefits valid till 30 November 2013 only.

First thing that attract le sisters was the gift shop lols.

Random photos while walking!

Cylon! Was looking forward to all the rides that day!
Really needed some roller coasters to help de-stress!
Anyways. Sorry for all the bare face photos.
Didn't put a single bit of makeup that day, not even my brows or lips.
Only applied my DRx toner, Max-C, and sunscreen.

Photos with le sisters!
On the left is a photo with huibin a.k.a kate.
On the right is a photo with huiling a.k.a kayley.
Facebook happily recognized all our faces and tag as me!
Do we really look that alike?

Our faces after taking Battlestar Galactica Human and Cylon consecutively.
The queue for cylon was crazy in the afternoon!
Anyways after the parade (5.30pm) they stated that queues for human and cylon were only 5mins long.

The mad expensive bottle! But huibin wanted that so... she had to pay for it herself!
I paid for their tickets already okay! $264 gone in one swipe! Daddy sponsored $100 though hahas.

After drinking up, it was time for the mummies ride!
We took this twice consecutively till huiling felt queasy ><
It's her first time taking roller coaster rides.
The first time I came to USS, Human+Cylon was enough to make me queasy.
I was so scared then. But now it's like mehh. Hahas.

Anyways, back to the mummies ride. 
BOTH MY PHOTOS WERE NICE!
But sadly we didn't buy cause sisters didn't look nice in them =P
Both photos I was looking at the camera, smiling with the cheese sign.
Huibin looked okay in both photos but she couldn't really catch the camera angle well.
Huiling closed her eyes for the first photo, for the second photo she was holding on to the handle lols.

Btw, if you want to take nice photos, sit on the 3rd or 4th row.
And the camera is on the right :) I've taken this ride 5 times in Singapore lols.

Hungry peeps need some food! We had corn dog and sat down to wait for the parade.
Btw, I don't find the corn dog nice and yet it is freaking $4! :(
Huibin says it's all thanks to me. Cause when she asked me to guess how much was it, I said $4.

The parade finally started!
And I was so pissed when all these people cut infront of us!
Especially a group of women/aunties who appeared out of nowhere!
They came from behind and stood infront of my sisters and I.
Then when they were told to stand behind the while line,
they tried to squeeze between my sisters and I just so they could stand in the first row!

Couldn't really take decent photos all thanks to those women/aunties.

Here I felt better, was less angry and became really happy.
Those aunties realize that they couldn't squeeze between my sisters and I,
so they squeeze in to stand beside me instead.
Then here came the penguins. PENGUINS I LOVE YOU!
Cause... look at the last photo. The penguin squirted water at them hahahas!
I saw the penguins squirt water before they reached my sis.
I went "Ah!" and it stopped right before it reached us. Lols.
Then I laughed a lil when they squirted those aunties before me.
I'm evil mehhs =P


More photos from the parade.
Here I think there were small dinos behind the trex and they squirt water too!
I think they squirted at those aunties again lols!
Remember they were squirted twice but I can't rmb what was the second one that squirted at them.

The conclusion that I came to was:
they squirt at people who stand infront of the white line!

Those guys are scary! They will purposely come close to you and give you a fierce face!
One of them spot a girl behind a bulletin board and went up to her to scare that.
That girl really screamed. So poor thing.

That's all for the parade!
Oh and I think those are the aunties who came into our way -.-
After the parade we decided to go and walk around and not take anymore rides.
Cause huiling was still feeling a lil queasy.

Brought them to the potion shop and we saw the penny machine!
My favorite in the states!
When I was in the states, when ever I saw one, I would make one.
And I will purposely keep shiny pennies for it.
Here they use fake pennies though. And they are a freaking $2 each!
If it is $1, I don't mind collecting. But $2, that's crazy!
It's only 51cents in the states.

Sis finds that puss in boots v cute.

All rides that we took, we always sat on the first row!
Huiling had two daring sisters who isn't afraid of roller coasters anymore.
So... she had to sit first row with us! =P

Hello Rockefeller! I would love to go back to NY to visit you!
The first time I came to USS, I have no idea what this building was.
After I've been to NY, I finally know...

Random streets which I've never been to.


Then we went to get our annual pass.
The queue in the morning was mad long.
So the lady there told us to go and take rides first then come back when we are leaving.
They open till the last man leaves USS =P

Do take note that you will have to take a photo for the pass.
So... I will highly recommend that, no matter what, just queue in the morning!
I felt that I look like a mess in the photo :(
It looks better than my UCLA card though =P

Pretty princess fiona headband!
All these cute things always attract me to them.

We left the park at around 6+pm :)

See all those people in the background?
That is the queue for the monorail!
It's madness!

We decided to take a bus out.
There was a long queue too.
But the queue moves rather quickly.
Then... here comes the traffic jam!
Next time I'm gonna walk out of sentosa -.-

Anyways that's all for these post!
Next, I want to go to the S.E.A. Aquarium! Anyone want to go with me? Hahas.
I haven't been to many places in Singapore :( I want to go to River Safari and Gardens by the Bay too!
Hmmm and there's Snow City (I've never been there before though it's been here for years).
Bottle Tree Park seems not bad a place too.
Maybe I should act tourist for a couple of days and go to all these places lols.

Btw, students who loves roller coaster rides, hurry and get the pass now =P
It's so worth it hahas. Just need to go there twice and it is worth the price already.
I'm going to go there whenever I'm free and take roller coasters to de-stress! :)

Skinny Pizza with the Girls!

Thursday, 21 February 2013

Met up with the girls again! :)
Photos with watermarks were taken by me.
Those without watermarks were taken by Alicia.
She actually brought her DSLR out!

Initially we met in Bugis cause we wanted to eat at Saveur.
But that place was full and had a waiting time of about an hour!
We decided to go somewhere else and ended walking to Raffles City Shopping Center.
Then we settled to eating at Skinny Pizza :)

The table we sat at was brightly lit so my photos still came out decent looking.
But there were lots of ugly photos too! :(
Really cannot stand my current compact camera already.
Maybe it's cause I got too used to DSLR quality photos.

Anyways, I shall go straight to the food we had that day!
Cause we didn't take much photos before eating hahahas.
Btw, I cannot remember the exact names of the dishes.

0.5m long sasuage
We ordered this cause we thought it would come in a plate and it would be super funny.
But who knows it came in a bowl lols. Anyways they have 1m long ones too!

Meatballs Pizza
I like this! Yummy!
The meatballs were huge :)

Squid Ink Pizza
Felt it was ok-ok only. Could not really taste the squid ink.
Also, the pizza base tasted a little like burnt pizza.

English Breakfast Pizza
I like this too! Yummy!

In general, I think their pizzas are not bad.
Preferred the tomato base ones :)
Each of us had one slice of each pizza.
Was feeling full after that.
But it might not be filling enough for guys.
Cause the pizza base was really really thin (skinny).

One thing I realized was that everything came with rocket.
No, not that rocket that goes to space =P
There is this type of vege called rocket, a really bitter tasting vege.
Never a fan of that rocket vege.
I was okay with eating them. But I felt the taste of rocket was too overpowering.
Whenever I eat other ingredients with the rocket, 
I couldn't really have a proper taste of the other ingredients.

Took photos with the candy that Alicia bought back from Japan!
Top (left to right): Me, Li Hui, Vicky
Bottom (left to right): Alicia, Shiyun, Kai Ru


Cute sushi hard candies :)
They even put in effort to create those cracks to make it look like rice grains!

A group photo with the shop logo which was right beside us :)

After dinner, we walked to MBS!
Just a random decision to go there and take photos lols.

Pretty photo taken by Alicia!

Shall end this post with a group photo we took on the Helix Bridge :) 

Little Miss Dressy

Saturday, 4 August 2012

Spot the difference!
The photo on the left was taken when I left home.
The photo on the right is taken a few hours after I left home and
 when I'm on my way to meet the merlions ;)

The difference is...

I changed my specs! :)
So I was like "floating" around that day.
It wasn't too bad though. No change in degrees.
Only astig dropped. And that's a good thing :)

Then it was Partyworld with the merlions on 31st May (my actual bday)!
Hahas the merlions is my JC clique ;)
It's a long story why we call our clique the merlions lols.
And Vicky! I'm sure you are reading this hahas.

With the RUs!
Fang Ru and Kai Ru :)

6 of us without shiyun cause she had to attend another friend's birthday party first.

Photo with Vicky :)

Random photos taken in partyworld :)

Photos of us playing with the body symbol app!

Our dear papa (vicky) and mama (fangru) :)

Shiyun! :)

Vicky with the birthday cake which I saw the moment 
they brought into the room at the start of the K session lols!

Light cheesecake!
Yummy! I was so sick of cakes by then already.
Cause I had a few other birthday celebrations a few days before this.
Cheesecake for a change! :) Yay!

Pretty pretty cake!
Thank you merlions! :)

Photos with each of them!

Me and the cake!

Vicky cutting the cake for us :)

More random photos!

Group photos using camera timer! ♥

Another group photo that one of the party world staff helped take.

And last few photos we took outside the restroom lols!
That's all for this post! :)
And I think I'm done with all my 21st birthday posts already! Yay! :)
