*Noelle's Leisure*: Universal Studio Singapore

Last week was an unusual week for my colleagues & I. We went through lots of major changes, received good as well as some shocking news about the company's future plans. Best of all, to commemorate our achievements in 2009, the Company sponsored us to Universal Studio Singapore.

I have been to Disney Lands, Ocean Parks, but never to Universal Studio. Heard lots of fun and exciting rides in the theme park and I was all geared up and ready for the most exciting rides that day.... But the roller coaster ride was still under some major re-construction, therefore my most 'exciting' ride I had was the mummy return.... not at all exciting. Though I am not young anymore, I still love and enjoy taking high acceleration, fast moving roller coasters with 2 to 3 grade of G forces. Too bad the USS rides did not match up to the criteria.

Perhaps this is Singapore's first time having to build a famous franchise theme park, we should not expect too much? During my visit there, there were 3 breakdowns and technical faults that caused delay to up to 15 minutes each.... So you can imagine we wasted 30 minutes sitting in dismay and disappointment while they get to the fix. Fortunately the technical faults happened during the shows and not the rides!

Nevertheless, with great company and sporty colleagues, I did enjoyed myself very much. Photos are the best evidence of our enjoyment! I am looking forward to bring Natalie there sometime soon....
