Met up with Cheryl, Amanda, James and Danielle here.
Universal Studios was nice. the rides were not very thrilling, but all the rides kinda revolved around the theme of their movies, and definitely very well thought out and gd execution. i enjoyed the studio tour, getting to see the actual set for Gossip Girl, War of the Worlds, Jaws. well to be honest, i am not exactly that possible if it is the actual set (since tourists go into these sets everyday), but nonetheless, it could still be the actual props brought over from the actual set. what was really impressive were the explosions, and the rainmaker and the 'floodgates'. with the lack of that kind of gadgets and that scale of production/budget, i now understand why local films mainly revolve around art house films and not venture into Hollywood style films. =/
during our stay in LA, we went for an America's Got Talent audition. kinda not the best TV show but its the one that fits our schedule. lots of funny performances, like aerobics tap dancing and pony dance. at the end of the day, i think we only saw 2 that successfully went through to the next round.
and we got a parking ticket, for parking next to the curb that was painted in red. kao. none of us knew about it. and there wasnt a double yellow line or zigzag white line. moreover the sign that says that 'we can park' is like just behind our car. apparently, we can only do that behind the sign. sway. contested, but didnt work. =/
