FINALLY. after numerous postponements due to weather, sickness and etc various circumstances, the day arrived. although i very nearly missed it this time too :X we set the meeting time for 9.15am at vivo, and i reminded rj not to be late. at 9.40am, rj called my house and i answered, without realising that I OVERSLEPT. anyhow answering the call made me fly into action and i managed to get everything done in 10mins and daddy kindly offered to send me to vivo. so at about 10.30 we were finally on our way in!
and the first ride was BATTLESTAR CYLON.
ride attendant: do you want to take the first row?
rj: OKAY *enthusiastic*
me: [as i get strapped on] whyyy i haven't even taken a 360deg roller coaster beforeee *moans*
rj: *laughs excitedly and ignores songping*
yes we have a great friendship like that.
ride #2 was HUMAN, of course. we took the 2nd row this time. i find this less scary! although the initial drop is steeper.
by the end of 5 rides (3 for cylon and 2 for human) however, my bravery quotient has risen to 80. the remaining 20 is for when i muster up enough courage to voluntarily sit in front AND at the side.
churros!
complete with our formidable weapons of churros sticks
Mr Good Guy. only because he came up to us and said, "hey girls, you do know that they are the bad guys right?" as we waited to take a photo with the egyptian henchmen.

touristy shot as we made our way to lunch
lunch was middle eastern (?) food! supposedly. i liked the appetizer platter a lot (dish in the foreground)
as we queued for the transformers simulator ride. it took us about half an hour, but it was awesome! we saw an old granny with a headful of white hair slowly hobbling behind us in the queue, and was amazed by how gung ho she was. after our ride however, we wondered if her heart would be able to take it.
a sultry marilyn who said "aww you girls are so sweet!"
a random sign. i wonder if they really have this in new york? and they say singapore is strict...
