My Own World of ADVENTURE at UNIVERSAL STUDIOS SINGAPORE

Have you ever experienced being alone while venturing around in a big  amusement park? What is the feeling of having your own adventure while you are alone? Are you brave enough to conquer the extreme or do you still need a companion to experience the adventure.


I really want to go at Universal Studios Singapore since I have no chance to have to visit it in America last 1998. Before the week of our departure to Singapore I kept  searching for attractions of Universal Studios until I asked  my facebook buddies on how does it look like, is it worth worth it? What if my companions does not want to take the rides and I will be the only one. I even analyze the rides if they are suitable for those people whose not into adventure. I've also watched the youtube on how the roller coaster look like, it seems so exciting and great that I am sure that I'll have fun riding it. I've listed down all the possible rides and attractions that I am going to try and visit then make a sequence for it so that it won't take me so long to think my next destination. Finally it was confirmed that I am going to the Universal Studios alone while my parents are wandering around the Sentosa. We were able to get the ticket at some travel agency inside the hotel that is located in Bugis Singapore which cost about $59 for the weekday rate. Its not that bad because it has still big difference compare to the rate that I can get from the Universal Studios itself. So I prepared for  venture inside the park and at least I can make my own strategies on what to do like what I am suppose to prioritize. 


I did not bother to eat breakfast, not because I am too excited to go to Universal Studios but for a fact that I don't want to have a feeling of being full inside my tummy while riding the roller coaster. 


For some reason I didn't bring the camera anymore but before I enter the park I took a picture in front of Universal Studios globe. I realized I won't have much time on taking pictures because we are in hurry as well. When I already entered the park I ran towards the locker rental of Battle Star Galactica to leave all my things because I am sure I won't be allow to ride the roller coaster if I still have something in my hand. This is just free for 30 minutes then after that it has a charge already. This is not the usual thing that you have padlock and the key not even a card. Your key here is the password which you are going to enter your BIRTHDAY. I actually exceeded the limit after riding the Battle Star Galactica which I was charged of $3.00, but then unfortunately my money was inside the locker so I can't pay and asked help from the staff. Fortunately she has considerate for not asking a charge. The only thing she asked is for my valid ID which I was able to show it to her. 


So now here are my step by step of what I did inside the park.


1. Battle Star Galactica CYCLON -   I really decide to take this one first while I haven't taken my breakfast so that I won't throw up. It is part of my strategy to take the extreme rides first while the feeling of excitement is still with me and while I am not yet tired. I just passed the Single Rider express since I am alone, it is like you don't need to fall in line with groups of people or long line. I really asked the staff that I want to be seated in front so she allowed me to do so. I am wearing a sandals that has protective strap so I am sure if I don't need to remove it but then I have changed my mind.  I removed it anyways to feel that my feet is floating in the air while riding the roller coaster. This is floorless roller coaster that you are obligated to remove your slippers/shoes if you are wearing one. Aside from that  the rail is over your head. This is intense corkscrew and a cobra roll that goes up, around and upside down. I did my strategy when the roller coaster goes down that I am inhaling but then I still can't avoid  yelling. I admit that when it goes up I have a feeling of being nervous but then when it goes down I was able to get rid my nervousness and yet I already have an overwhelm feeling that I did it. I have a feeling that I was able to conquer my fears independently. When I went straight to the store I saw the picture as part of souvenir. Unfortunately I can't be able to be seen on picture because I was seated at the left side. LOL! the cashier even asked me to go back, as much as I want but I am in hurry so I didn't do so. If you want to avail picture of yourself here at Cyclon you must seat on the RIGHT SIDE. I am now ready for the HUMAN ride. 


2. Battle Star Galactica HUMAN - This was just the usual roller coaster as you can see in other amusement parks that the rail is under your feet. But of course this is also considered as extreme the same with CYCLON. I've seated in front again at the right side to make sure that I will be captured. I have seen myself on picture but I don't like it because the image was edited already and it looked unnatural. Of course I don't also like my funny facial expression on it. LOL! So again I didn't bother to avail it. 


3.  Revenge of The Mummy - There were many people who are falling in line but since I am alone so again I was able to pass the Single Ride express wherein I was accommodated right away that I don't need to fall in line. I demand again that I want to be seated in front so fortunately my wish was their command. I was seated in front beside 3 people who are family. We are inside the dark where I could see the scary props though I don't feel scared because I used to it. Since I've watched this on youtube then I already have an idea on where to prepare of inhaling. It was totally amazing on how the production will scare you with excitement. I have seen my picture but then again I don't like it.


Let me ask you something? Do you also have different techniques when riding a roller coaster? When it is going down all you can do is to INHALE then you can YELL to release your fears. You may also stretch your body while inhaling because when I tried it and it was effective.    

4. Treasure Hunters - Finally I just rest from extreme rides so I just turned into moderation wherein kids are allowed to ride on desert Jeep that they could also drive. It was just a kid's version of The Mummy that you can see almost the same thing. Nothing much exciting unless you are a kid. I was with a Chinese kid, he was cute and an Indian Mom that we are 3 on the desert jeep and they are in front of me. 


5. Enchanted Airways - Before I decide to take my lunch I just took this roller coaster first. I forgot to fall in line in Single Ride express that is why it took me so long as well before I was able to ride here. I was shocked that the people who are falling in line in front of me decided to backout, maybe because they realize that they can't take it and that is much extreme. Oh well! not on my case. When I've ride it nothing much exciting about it. Honestly it was like an extraordinary caterpillar in our local amusement park. I am even bringing my bag that good thing I know how to protect it. This was just a junior roller coaster so nothing scary about this ride. 

 Before going to the next venture I've decided to stay  in Goldilocks to have lunch though I didn't bother to buy some meals because all I can see was the chicken. I had a sandwich so I've eaten that. The only thing I bought inside was the grape shake.         


6. Donkey Live  - After I ate lunch I am not yet ready for another extreme ride so I've decided to stay in a place that I don't need to ride. I want to see the Donkey Live to see how does it look like. If the Donkey will perform or sing. I don't understand the meaning of interactive "live" show so all I thought was that the Donkey is just a mascot who is going to perform on stage. But then I was wrong it was like a film that the Donkey is communicating with the audience. As a person who is already mature enough I felt that this is not that exciting anymore though I really appreciate on how the Donkey is relating with people. The Donkey character has a sense of humor so you might want to try introduce yourself to the Donkey. I even like the fact that the Donkey wants to cooperate with him like you must also sing and dance. It was still great though.  Aside from that he is playful enough that the Donkey will ask you to do a favor for him, it was funny though. How I wish that the next time I am going to visit here I would introduce myself if the Donkey ask my name, I will try if the Donkey can say "Petrang Kabayo" I just want to know if how could he pronounce it not unless if the voice in charge here is a Filipino. 


7. TRANSFORMERS The Ride: The Ultimate 3D Battle - I have tried to feel myself if I should be getting ready for extreme rides. Yes I am now excited to see the one of my favorite movie Transformers. Before I have taken this ride I left all my things inside the locker to feel the scene without worrying my belongings. I passed the Single Rider express again even there were no long lines. It amazed me because there's this feeling that you were also involve in the scenes like fighting with the robots, going through a car chase then bump on the other vehicle, falling down from a high rise building and the feeling of being eaten by the robots. I was hoping that my favorite character devastator will be involved but unfortunately its not. I totally appreciate the whole scenario, effects, sounds and the actions but it has need of improvement in terms of graphics. All in all it was so great that is why I decided to go back for another turn that I don't even want to close my eyes just for second. All I want is to feel the whole scenery of the movie. Hope that there will be like this here in Manila. I already missed this by now. 


8. Canopy Flyer - My next adventure is just mild. By passing the Single Ride Express I was able to accommodate right away without falling in a long line again. I just requested that I want to be seated at the back because I want to feeling of riding in a reverse manner. I've attempted to remove my sandals but then the staff didn't allow me to leave my footwear but just my bag because just like what I did in Battle Star Galactica Cyclon I want to feel the fresh air on my feet. I can actually remove it but the problem is I need to hold it and put the sandals at the back of me so that is the reason why I didn't make it anymore. I was seated beside a girl and I think she is still a teenager or somewhat 20 plus of age. I got a chance to talk with her while our ride is not yet moving. It was just a casual conversation. She is Mexican and I find her pretty like a model, she's been nice to me. 


This is like a floorless cable car, the only difference is that it will move faster like you are flying. It was only one round and I find it too short. I didn't attempt to have another turn because all I want to do is to try it once. But still its fun.


9. Shrek 4-D Adventure -  Done with the Sci-Fi adventure then it is time for me to be in a fantasy. I've also waited here for so long. There was an introduction that I find it boring at first while we are not yet inside the theater. Finally we are about to enter to watch the movie. This was not like the transformers that your seat is like riding a roller coaster that you have to move around. This was just chairs like in theaters that are just moving. Good thing I was able to seat in front row as in 1st row so I was really near the screen. I don't know how come I felt dizzy at this point but the Transformers is more extreme compare to this. I am satisfied with the visual which is totally clear but this is not exciting compared to Transformers. What I appreciate here is the effects that the spider will tickle you then the air as well. It was like watching a movie that you have to feel the scenery but not exactly you are involved in the film. 


9. Madagascar: A Crate Adventure -  Seated in a front row but on the middle with two strangers. So all of us were single riders.  I am sure kids will have fun for seeing the props of Madagascar with the story telling. A river boat ride with little effects and this is adventure for kids. If I had my camera then I would want to record it and capture images. You might be surprised of the falling water but it won't make you wet. It was just a curtain-like thing that you are going to enter to the next place. Honestly I was been fooled by this set up and I also noticed the woman beside me had thought that we will be getting wet including our bags and other things around us. Good thing we were wrong. 


11. Lights, Camera, Action! Hosted by Steven Spielberg - I believe I've done all my extreme rides so it is time for me to calm down and relax by seeing the short introduction from one of my favorite directors Steven Spielberg. There were no Single Express at this point so I am obligated to fall in line with a bunch of people and wait for our turn. While walking on the ramp towards the studio I've already seen couple who are having a public display of affection by torridly kissing each other. I know this is not a big deal anymore especially in other countries, it is becoming normal nowadays in this world but honestly I can't avoid not eyeing on it since of course I am not used to it and yet very distracting. However I could still imagine if they are going to do that here in our country I am sure it is a big fuss for people here and yet somebody might captured them through the use of phone camera or even a digital camera, they might also record it, but who knows? But then it just so happened that there were another couple of a different nationality who were also walking ahead of me and supposed to be I would be falling in line next to them. You know what happened? The wife just walked straight ahead. That is the time when the couple had stop kissing to each other because they were shocked as well. I laughed, of course in a quiet manner not in the sense that people saw and hear my laugh. Though I am wondering how come these people ahead of me were not complaining of what the other couples did of passing ahead. I mean I don't have any idea if that is an excuse for senior citizens as there were no information about it. Because if that is what they are going to do here in our country then for sure people were already complaining and even fought with them already not unless if they are seniors who were excused for that. Well enough for that then I have to tell the next thing happened to me which was funny as well. While waiting for our turn there were group of friends next to me then they asked me couple of times to take a picture for them. Of course I did their favor and it is fine by me. I think they were Chinese. Though when we entered the studio the funny thing that happened was there was a Chinese teenager that holds my arms and I was shocked if I know this girl. I just smiled by saying excuse me then she was shocked as well that she thought I was her friend LOL! she was really laughing and she apologized but of course not a big fuss for me. I find her cute chinita babe. 


So here we go ready to watch a short introduction about the film on how it was set up. Capturing images and recording a video is not allowed and prohibited by the law. I have no problem about it because I am not holding a camera. This experience is like witnessing the shoot, the difference is that they will tell you on how they did it to the previous films and of course there were not performers here like actions stars. How I wish I was in first row so that I could feel the strange like there was a fire that will go near to you, then a bit splash of water, and the ship will go towards the audience as you thought it will bump you. LOL! the people in front just stayed away. This is the time to make your imagination feel that you are inside the film. This is not a ride just like Transformers, all you need to do is to watch and see the props then there were no seats here as in you are standing here. Another great experience here.  


9. Accelerator - The last thing I did before leaving the Universal Studios. Nothing much exciting about this ride because it will just turn you around. I am seated there like what I am doing in couch and the good thing about here is that I was the only person inside the ride. Not much people though. 


I missed the 3 attractions here for some reason. When I passed the Monster Rock that was the only time I have seen the schedule and I have missed the last show. By the time I was ready for the Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure unfortunately it was under maintenance. I was even told that I really missed the one of the wonderful things, I felt unfortunate for it but I realized right away that at least I was able ride at Battle Star Galactica which was my most favorite is more important to me, hoping that there will be next time. I walked towards the Water World and being unaware again of the schedule, I did not attempt to attend the 5:30 pm because my parents needs me at 5:00 pm. So instead I just eat a full meal at the Oasis Spice Cafe I ordered a meal that I know it is really spicy since I believe to myself that I can eat and finish it. Unfortunately I can't finish it so I asked that I want to take it out. Even at dinner and the next day I wasn't able to finish it just because Its too spicy for my taste. 


Here are the facts that you should know about Universal Studio Singapore. 


If you are going to rent a locker the best recommended section here is inside the Ancient Egypt because the usage will be 60 minutes or 1 hour free


Single Ride Express is recommended for 1 to 2 persons, just don't forget to enter this way because this is the only chance that you can enter here right away without falling in line and wait for long. But this is not applicable to all attractions only for rides.  


In my own point of view if you plan to do all the activities here such as taking all rides, watching parade if any, watching some shows, dining in, shopping and the most important thing is to record the video and take pictures then you must really go here as early as possible because I believe this couldn't be a fast paced activity. It will take you a day for you to accomplish all this kind of activities. 


Prior to my visit here in Universal Studios SG I was informed that if I want to ride the Jurassic Park Rapids Adventure and watch the Water World you must bring you own extra clothes. Because in Rapids it will really make you wet while riding especially your shorts or pants. When watching the Water World you might want to be seated in front wherein there would be a place for splash zone. Aside from that you must leave your things inside the locker. 


If you are going to ride the CYCLON of Battle Star Galactica and you want to avail picture as your souvenir then you must be seated at the right side because you can't be captured if you are at the left side. Aside from that all things must be inside the locker because chances are it will lost while you are riding the roller coaster. 


There are some attractions that Cameras are prohibited especially when you are inside the theater. Do not attempt of disobeying the law because that is part of criminal offense. 


WEEKDAYS off peak is the most RECOMMENDED days to visit. This is to avoid the crowd of people. Imagine even if you are going to eat then you still need to fall in line and waiting for so long. Consumes time right? The rides will just take you seconds to experience but you are falling in line for more than 30 minutes to an hour already or worse even more than an hour. Gosh!!!

The BEAUTIFUL NIGHTMARE at the MARINA BAY SANDS of Singapore


    By the time we are done for the great City Tour in Singapore and after we bought something in Chinatown I was told via sms that we must go straight ahead at the back of Esplanade wherein the No Signboard Seafood Restaurant is located. I knew if for a fact that No Signboard is the name of the restaurant though I still have the second thought if it was the real name or if we must go to the seafood restaurant wherein there is no signboard. LOL! But then finally it was the name of the restaurant. I really like the seafood there especially the crunchy shrimp, I am into seafood and I like it. I also like their chili crabs and I missed it already. I hope there is another chance for me to eat there. I like the fact on how they accommodated us and good thing the waiter was also a Filipino. After our dinner we went straight ahead to the river cruise going to Marina Bay Sands. Again my obsession goes in capturing the Marina Bay Sands at night and the city as well wherein the lights from the buildings are colorful that makes the city more amazing. Since I can't capture that well I decided to record the city.  



  Even though we went down to the Marina Bay Sands I still keep on capturing the places while we are walking. I have no idea yet on what are we going to do or what would be our next destination, but then I just go with the flow. Not until it surprises me when I've seen the fountain show which I thought it would just the show of water that has unique moves, but then then there was an interactive show which I find it more amazing that I have never seen even before. I didn't not bother to capture it by images but rather I record it on video because I believe that is much better for my remembrance. Just click the link to see the video for you to have an idea of what I am talking about. 



   In terms of the story, I'm not that satisfied but what I find it amazing is on how they execute it visually which is the most important thing that you would see. It was like there are effects that flowing on the air and at the sea. This was my first time to watched this kind of show like watching a movie on theater that instead of seeing it on screen it is on the fountain. I am wondering if who the performers are because they are great in doing their performances. I also like the musical background and other effects of this show that makes you feel overwhelmed. This is great idea on how they are promoting their country.


   When the show ended hoping that there would be the next thing will happen then I keep on capturing the flow of water on a big shape of dish. But since it is just being redundant and nothing extraordinary is happening then that is the time we decide to enter inside the mall of Marina Bay Sands. Nothing much amaze with the mall inside maybe because I am still expecting more or because it was about closing time so I wasn't able to see all of it. But at least I find the place  elegant where you can buy signature clothes and apparel. We were able to zip a Rasapura Masters hot milk tea which is my first time to taste a Singaporean milk tea. It made me calm and relaxed after I take a sip, I have never tasted a tea like that even before so again this is the thing that I am going to miss when I'm back in Manila. Aside from that the tea invigorates me removing the feeling of being tired.


    After our hot milk tea session we went straight to the exit of the mall. But then since I need to go in the comfort room I have noticed the board that there will be upcoming store that will be opening soon and the name of it was LANDI which indeed we know what is that mean in our local term that is why I also bother to take that photo just for fun.
                                                




As we are waiting for the taxi I can't get enough of taking photos around me, even the luxury taxi cab just for fun. Then when we are already inside the cab I'm still taking pictures of the Singapore flyer and how does it look like at night while we are on the way going home to Ang Mo Kio Avenue 10. Glad that I was able to take a picture of it at night shot. Next destination for the next day is Universal                       Studios at Resorts World.

Sun Bathing while Wandering the City of Singapore


Are you really into walking or even traveling under the sun while wandering the city? Do you have any other ways to have sun bathing aside from doing it on the beach? Oh well! I am not into sun bathing but then by riding the Hippo Tour double Decker bus I didn't bother to sit under the shade but I want to sit where I could see the sky up above and capturing the whole business district while roaming around the city of Singapore. Usually I'm having a  headache when my head is directly under the sun but since I had my angry bird red cap, I feel just fine. Aside from that I put heavy sunblock on my face and arms to make sure that it won't burn my skin. Good thing it never affects me that much. Though my skin tone became a  bit dark.  
I really find it amazing that there is no pollution while we are traveling the whole city where I could feel the breeze of  fresh air and the nature. How I wish this is a kind of environment that we have in other places as well. I was really amazed of the unique structures of the tall buildings, malls, bridges, and other attractions. I would really want to say KUDOS to all architects, engineers and to other people who are involve for the development of different structures and tourist attractions. 

Just look at the SUN



I was totally impressed of the structure of the Marina Bay Sands. At first I am wondering if what is that shape like a ship? I didn't realized that is hotel not until I was able to reach that part. Honestly I have many different shots of the Marina Bay Sands. I could really think and feel that this is just for people who can reach the luxury. Of course I am positive on that. Hoping that I can use their pool someday and do the camwhore. 









For more details we usually start our boarding at Suntec City Mall wherein that is the place where we have taken our lunch at the Food Republic. 









SINGAPORE FLYER

I was totally excited to ride just to reach the sky and see the glimpse of the city. I am totally impressed and find it amazing that there is excitement while you are looking down the city. I really like do the camera shot in every view and do the pose. I never realized that we are about to go down that is why we are in hurry on taking pictures. Before you enter the Singapore Flyer you will pass by the green screen wherein you have to take pictures but this is optional if you want to avail the picture or not. But this is the tip if you want to avail a picture as part of your remembrance: DO NOT WEAR COLOR GREEN because it is hard for them to edit your outfit right away, yet it is conflict for the green screen. After a great sunny day we went to Chinatown to buy something and went home at Ang Mo Kio Avenue for the next destination at night. 



These are the views that we have seen while we are taking the Singapore Flyer. It is really nice to camwhore around or take pictures of the city while having an excitement inside the flyer.

Exploring the Southeast Asian City-State off the Southern Tip of the Malay Peninsula




We were able to avail the airfare promo for international flights. That is the reason why we decided to go to Singapore only for 4 days and 3 nights of tour on January 14 to 17. I was asked if I want to go with my parents and I said yes because it is my chance to go in another country. The week before our flight I was asked for the itinerary of the tour so I searched the websites on where to go. It includes going to Universal Studios. Some people say that it is so small. But then my concern here is to experience the rides especially the Battle Star Galactica and the fact that I could visit one of the popular amusement parks because I had no chance during our tour in USA last 1998. So I want to give myself an opportunity to explore  Universal Studios. I've already created the plan of what can we do there during our tour though that is not yet confirm since we also need to rely on the other suggestions and plans especially from people who are already living in Singapore. 

When we arrived at Changi Airport around 10:20 am we had taken our lunch at Breeks Cafe which is American Style cafe that offers a big course meal which is appealing and affordable. The one meal can be eaten by 2 persons because of the big servings. This is located in terminal 2 of Changi Airport. 


After that we had ride the taxi going to Ang Mo Kio Avenue where the God Son of my father lives, that is the place where we stayed for 4 days and 3 nights. I had a chance to see the nature and environment of Singapore on how they are taking care of it while we are on the way going to the condominium unit. During afternoon we just fixed our things and rest first but then our plans are not yet confirm because my Aunt wants to see us first to talk about our tour. That is why she invited us to see her on Orchard Rd from the MRT. Orchard Rd is one of the major tourist attraction in Singapore which is central business district. When we already meet my Aunt that is the time we already discussed the tours on where to go on that day, the next day and the other day. The first plan is to visit the Botanical Garden and Night Safari. Then on our second day we are going to have City Tour then take the Singapore flyer which was I am so excited to see the other views of Singapore. She mentioned the 3rd day if we want to go in Sentosa or Universal Studios. I really insisted that I really wanted to go in Universal Studios because I had no chance to see that in USA a long time ago. So my parents decided that I can go there alone while they are going to wander the Sentosa. Since they are already graduated of having tour in Disneys and Universal Studios in America then they are not interested to see the Universal Studios in Singapore already. My Aunt told me that she can get the ticket in some travel agencies that has big discount. 

By the way I forgot to mention that we discussed our plans of the tour at the Mc Donalds Mc Cafe. I was impressed of the Himalayan Tea shake that I ordered. Which indeed I have never tasted that even before. It was really yummy of having a little bit of bitter taste with honey that makes it sweet. I like the blend. For sure I am going to miss this beverage because this is not even available in Manila. 
We started our tour in Botanical Garden wherein we were able to meet my cousin which is the daughter of my Aunt. She was with her boyfriend and his mother, aside from that her friends are also there on the picnic ground while they are playing the disc. 

During our tour in Botanical Garden unfortunately I wasn't able to see the orchids because it has already closed. But then we caught some couples who are having their pre nuptial photography inside the Botanical Garden. We had taken our photos with them as remembrance.




Before our tour in Night Safari we had taken our dinner at Wee Nam Kee Chicken Rice which is the popular affordable restaurant where you can eat the delicious and fresh chicken. We even met the owner of the restaurant as he had mentioned there is also a branch here in Manila located in Salcedo Makati. This restaurant is HIGHLY RECOMMENDED especially for those people who are in budget. 


Night Safari is our last tour on our first day trip in Singapore. Unfortunately we weren't able to watch the show because we are not that too familiar of that place and yet we were wandering around by riding on the tram while the show is going on. I really thought that this was just a zoo wherein I could only see the familiar animals such as tigers, lions and monkeys. But I was wrong. It proved to me that this zoo is very wonderful where you can see the different unique animals that you have never seen even before not even in the usual zoos. It is hard for me to remember every animal but of course I can still see the website for me to classify all those kinds of animals. So the next time you visit here just know your schedule and see the shows. I could really imagine the feeling of being in the middle of the forest at night where you can see nothing but the animals on the dark. You can still bring your own cameras but just to remind you that FLASH IS NOT ALLOWED. It is up to you on how you can capture the scenes without using the flash.  


Be ready for the next story which is

Year of the Dragon’s 12 resolution

As much as possible I want to follow my decision that I want to set. There are some resolutions that I was able to accomplish but some were not due to change of plans. Most of the time it depends on how you handle it so that you will be motivated to work out on your goals. Here are my resolutions hoping that I would be able to follow it this year.

1.  Be more addicted in MMORPG, ZYNGA games and other online games. I want to use this for my dream profession. Since it is year of the Dragon so I really have to be more addicted in Dragon Nest. It helps me to relax and enjoy to the extent that it will give you positive outlook in life when you achieved. 
2. Always listen to those people who motivates you and sincere to help you. Most of them are sensible people who has good and positive attitude that can always bring dignity to themselves. I totally respect those people who are humble enough to appreciate you as a person and they always see your good and positive aspect. I won't listen and entertain people who are into negativities because most of them are not happy with themselves and they want you to be like them. Or maybe they are a kind of person who doesn't have an effort to follow their own dreams that is why they want you to give you a nightmare. More so some of them  would only value you as a person just because you are rich or if you have plenty of money as their advantage to use you. I will never listen to those people who pretends that they are giving you so called "advise" while they are frustrated and hating other people. 
3. Always write your daily plans in Belle De Jour planner because this was given to me as a prize from Cosmo.ph. Honestly I took an effort to find the contest wherein they are giving away of Belle De Jour planner. Fortunately the Cosmo.ph was giving away for the 17 people who would post and be chosen. I was the 17th person or the last one who gave the comment. I don't have any idea if I was chosen or because I was the last one who had reach the quota but the point is having a BDJ planner as FREE is a big blessing for me already. 
4. Be ready for sensible and educated rebuttals when people are attacking you. It is because some of them are not really constructive in giving criticisms. They really tend to insult and offend other people as part of their defense mechanism. 
5. Must have financial goal this year. I would want to set my priorities in spending money as long as I already have a new job. 
6. Continue to follow my dreams and I WILL NEVER GIVE UP! until I haven't reach it
7. Lessen my worries
8. Always update my blog
9. Don’t tolerate others to abuse my humility and goodness.  
10. Be aware of the planner contest for next year so that I will win a BDJ planner or other planners as well
11. Always adapt in a modern world.  Depends upon my taste it could be in music, what's new, fashion, social networking sites, words, and gadgets. But it does not mean that I have to spend too much for that. It is just an understanding of something about new. 
12. Must learn more softwares. To become more creative, innovative and resourceful
