Prior
to my resignation, my request for a six-day vacation has been granted which
prompted me to book this trip. It was a gift for my mom and Tita but instead of
coming with us to Universal
Studios Singapore, they went to see Singapore Chinese
Orchestra's concert.
I
loved everything about this theme park! Aujen and I are suckers for
exhilarating rides, that’s why we opted for the Express Pass to make the most
out of our day. Its price is nearly the same as the admission ticket but it
will allow you to skip lengthy queues. My favorite attractions are:
Top 5: Transformers The Ride
Mind-blowing
is apt to describe this 4D ride. We tried this twice but the thrilling feeling
never went away.
Top 4: Revenge of the Mummy
While
the sharp turns and sudden falls in this pitch dark building did surprise me, I
felt like they weren’t enough. Second round, please!
Top 3: Lights! Camera! Action!
This
Steven Spielberg-hosted show simulates a city about to be ravaged by a
hurricane.
Top 1: Waterworld
If you
want to see death defying acts paired with pyrotechnics, don't miss this show
which takes place twice a day.
I’m
sad that I wasn’t able to see Shrek and Fiona (perhaps the only fairytale which
proves that blissful love stories are not just for the charming ones) but Puss
in Boots and Kitty Softpaws made up for the couple’s absence through their
"Dance for the Magic Beans."
More from Far Far Away!
I love this gang too.

For our lunch, we went to Mel’s Diner. Traveling abroad always proves to be a struggle for me whose meal isn’t complete without rice.
