You get the point. Except for swimming, I’m not a very outdoor person and being dubbed the “vampire” by some of my friends is no joke. I don’t hate the sun and it doesn’t kills me either but definitely not a fan. Rain 1 Sun 0. 
But still, we had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun. It’s been ages since I last saw some of those lovelies. It seems like jump shots are the highlights of the day with us competing who is the better photographer. I am not going to comment because I wouldn’t want Sharon’s fist to collide with my face. =p

Before I start, be forewarn that this post is extremely photo-intensive! So, let the story begins. Last Friday was one of the most anticipated day in recent years because I went Universal Studios Singapore with my mum and Sissy! I have been telling people around me how excited I was because it’s the first time I am visiting a theme park in 22 years of my life. The main attraction, Battlestar Galactica was closed since the day before. As I wasn’t planning to take the ride in the first place, I wasn’t too disappointed. Dayna is not a fan of thrilling rides because my fragile heart simply couldn’t take the suspense. I didn’t want to risk myself having a heart attack on any of the rides so roller coasters are a big no for me.
We arrived at about 9.30am and the place was pretty packed. I had not expected such a big crowd since it wasn’t a weekend or school holiday. I was very impressed with the architectures, buildings and design because they are gorgeous! I don’t feel like I’m in Singapore once I stepped into the park. The friendly staff directed our ways to collect the dining and shopping vouchers and we started our day via taking a picture with my favourite animal in the world – the famous Kungfu panda, Po. 
Honestly speaking, I don’t really like this photograph because I’m so tiny in it. I can’t even see my own face clearly. The shot taken by the cameraman of Universal Studios Singapore did a better job and we ended up purchasing the photograph which cost us SGD 10 from the photo studio; The Dark Room. Quite a creative name instead of the usual “Kodak Express” I see in the malls!

Yesterday was our farewell gathering for Huaian before he flies back to Australia this weekend. It’s been a year since our previous farewell for him when he went Australia to further his studies last year. I had to confess I totally forgot to tell Huaian about our meet-up till the morning before we were suppose to meet. I told him our gathering would be on the 3rd but didn’t update him regarding the time again. He thought I was busy with my exams (which I was) and the gathering was rescheduled. I gave him a call immediately and luckily he managed to find some time to meet up with us. I couldn’t imagine what would have happened if I didn’t remember not telling him. All of us will be waiting at Vivo City and he’s not going to appear. I’m pretty sure most of my friends will kill me for it!
We planned to head to the Sentosa island to take our first look at Resort World. All of us haven’t been there and we thought it will be a good idea to tour Huaian around the new sections of Sentosa before he leaves. The place was unusually quiet and empty. I would have expected it to be bursting with activities and music. It wasn’t what I had expected but perhaps with the opening of the Universal Studio, it will be a livelier place. We discovered the Hershey’s chocolate shop beside the entrance to Universal Studios. I love this shop because they sell a huge range of Hershey’s chocolates, they even have peanut butter chocolates!
