Getting older but I'm still a kid at heart ~ Universal Studios Orlando

I'll be turning 23 this year but you know even as I grow older, wiser and more experienced, I can still count on my young spirit at heart. I'm still a lil' curious monkey poking my fingers around the worlds nooks and crannys.

Constantly I'm reminded that we're all suppose to look out for our futures, building our career aspects, secure foundations in finance, etc etc. While I am aware of looking at these tasks to be sure that I'm not going downhill in the path of life, I'm quite glad for the cultural insights, imaginations brought to us by entertainment, stories and moment with companions, beautiful scenary - this world has so much to offer.

I clearly remember being with my cousin in my aunt's garden, looking up at a crystal clear night sky decorated with millions of dazzling stars. One of life's most amazing moments. Too bad my short sight has developed for the worse but that memory sticks in my head - I also saw and made a wish on a shooting star that night :)

But anyway, the main thing about today's blog is I want to pin this down on my life's wish-list.



Ever since I learnt of this place from watching Blue Peter back in the late 90's, I've always dreamt of going to the Universal Studios Orlando Theme Park. It's just truly astonishing, I really get hyped when I see some of the rides in action on youtube. The same inspired, magical, awed sensations overwhelm me, just like when I've come out of seeing good theatrical productions like 'Avenue Q', 'The Lion King' or 'Monty Python's - Spamalot' - just... WOW!

Maybe those similar sensations drew me to previous activities, earning a BND Drama, singing in a band at gigs, karaoke sessions and freestyle dance. Not necessarily escapism, however I sometimes feel like I'm reminding people of the fun things to explore in life when recalling this particular wishful thing to do. I think that this just shows my spirit of fun, something that I'll be happy to pass down to the lives in my future. 'All work and no play, makes Jack a dull boy', right?

Seriously, anyone who has been there - I will gladly sit down with milk and cookies to listen to your stories. I love roller coasters, I love adventures, I love being immersed into a whole new world, I love the spirit of cosplay and bright, enthusiastic people. I would LOVE to visit this place!
