USS Halloween 2013

A rather inpromptu outing with my sis and Sandy & GF. Sincerely thanks Sandy and his family for getting us the accomodation at hotel Michael after our Halloween night and of course the good food. So yes this is the first time I been to USS Halloween and I was thinking am I insane to promise my sis to go given the fact that I AM DAMN SCARED OF GHOST NIGHT WALK ( or halloween nights so to speak here). My experience during my poly orientation and camps was tragic for me - should I recall I had asthma attack after the first walk through. But it has been sometime since I went out with her for any events I suppose and didnt really want to leave her alone with her godfather and gf ; she will be the lightbulb then. So yes I decided to go with her and Sandy just booked a room for us that night. YIPEE to us cause I have not stay in Singapore hotel in the right manner (I had one night in fullerton but it was my sis wedding and we had to squeeze many ppl and end up slping on the floor). We went on the 26 Oct a Saturday and I was late because I had work on Saturday. ( shall not go over to the topic of how sian I felt sometimes) Plus it was madly packed at the monorail station at Vivo and I had to resort to walking into Sentosa. I didnt want them to wait too long cause I felt bad for being late so I practically jog all the way in. Sandy was super nice to tabao dinner for me cause they know I surely have not eaten and the crabmeat fried rice was superb I swear. I thought the fried rice was from the hotel or something but after supper and the next day lunch at the same place, I knew when it was coming from and how come it taste so good with big chunk of crab meat. AND I MEAN juicy ALASKAN CRAB MEAT. We dine at this restaurant at Crockfords tower called Feng Shui Inn. The food was really awesome and Sandy family is really big eaters. They order alot of food and they make sure you eat more than you can and really feel the bloatedness of your stomach. So anyway, we went to the Halloween night around 8pm and we started queuing for the first haunted house that was the nearest. It was "Possession". I thought I would be damn scared when we walked through the scare zone to the haunted house but nope I did not. In fact we were laughing around at those ghosts and monsters. The queue was freaking long and we waited and queued for almost 1.5 hours?! But we came out of the haunted house, disappointed. They led a bunch of us in, like a group of 20 to 30 people and we were supposed to walk through the house, being scared by the ghosts in there. But because it was too large a group and especially you are not the first one to enter, you already know where are the ghosts when the people in front of you scream and shout and stop when they see the ghosts or get scared. Plus the fact that I could not see a single thing in there because it was too dark, I was not scared by them AT ALL. pretty disappointing after a 1.5 hour wait and a less than 15 mins walk through with no feel? We wanted to queue for the next haunted house but it was at least a good 2 hour wait and that time it was already 11pm. So we gave up the queue and went for some rides, the enchanted and mummy and walk around the USS for photo-taking, scaring the zombies and laughing at people got scared. Concluded our night there at Louis Pizza where we had a large pizza shared by 4 of us but me and Sandy ate 2 large pieces. So overall, the USS halloween was really meh except that they really put in the effort this time round for more zombies and whatsnot around the USS so that we could really take many photos with them and props as well. We didnt just end our night there but headed back for supper (we were like WHAT?!) at Feng Shui Inn. See I told you how crazy Sandy family is. And the night ended around 4am when we KO back in the room till next morning 12 noon for check out. It was a good weekend spent with my sis and Sandy family. Good company make good days I suppose even though the event didnt turn out what we expected of. So below are some pictures I took, not alot but good for sharing. Kudossss

quick update

I have a sudden urge to write something. I dont have any idea what subject it should be. Probably some random thoughts again before I sleep. And it is 2am now. I have this love and hate relationship with my current job now. Love is because i have known alot of friends from here and they are really nice. The environment is really nth bad to say about. Hate is my life is kinda messed up because of the job cause i sleep pretty late. Wake up ptetty late for normal person because my work starts late and i got free time when nobody does and i work till late again. And this cycle repeats when i reach home and settle down for the end of the day. Kinda sucky so to speak because i rarely have chance to meet my friends for dinner or outing because i only have sunday off and usually sleeping off the day because i am dread tired. Which everybody doesnt understand why when my job scope is simple.
Second i really want to go for a short getaway. I dont know why but perhaps thats what mpst people would love to do too; travel. I just feel very tight up and moody staying in sg with my current life like this. Feel that im trapped in a box and i really dont like it.
Third i seriously think i should get away from my job for awhile. Did i mention i had this illusion that the phone will ring or vibrate whenever i am catching my sleep. Seriosuly i am lacking and deprive of sleep every single day. And curse the govt or town council for having construction IN FRONT and BACK of my flat which cause me to wake up everyday without fail at 8am! Im sorry because i suppose only me who start work at 1130 unlike the normal office hour people. But still, i curse them. For making me deprove of sleep. Say that i am ridiculous or unreasonable, i couldnt care for now because i really am freaking tired everyday!
Anyway my halloween post will be up spon. Stay tune and sorry for the late update.
Ok i need to go to lalaland before i wake up at bloody 8am because of that damn construction.
