Working at Sunway Lagoon

Work has been insanely busy recently. These two days, I have spent my days at the Sunway Lagoon theme parks doing a shoot that, thank god, has finally ended. (and thus finally time to blog)

I always thought that the Sunway Lagoon only has a dodgy dry park and a never-changing water park. But after this shoot, my image for Sunway Lagoon changed totally.

Do you know (for those who have not been to Sunway Lagoon in the past two years), the park has recently (not so recent) included two new theme parks in their full filled adventures: the Extreme Park and the Wild Life Zoo.

After going through a traumatizing attempt to go onto the overwhelming G Force X ride that will catapult you into the sky at a speed of 120 km/h in 2 seconds, and before you get over that faster-than-F1 rush, gravity kicks in and all you can do is scream your heart out (if your heart is still with you);

Guy from G Force: for people who want to interview for our job, we will strap him to the flight capsule and shoot them into the sky before signing any document

Nicole: (thinking) can there be any more spontaneous interview?

and after an off-road ATV ride with the camera crew, a paint-ball war in the jungle,

No, not this boring forever-there-never-change-since-I-was-baby tiger


an adrenaline pumping water slide, a tug of war with the waves inside the wave pool with my balloon tube and then a final splash in the big surf pool…. My limbs just felt like jelly, if not literally.

I’m sure I can’t feel a thing if you take a stick and poke it.

No, don’t try it. I’m kidding.

The only peak moment I guess is the free lunch we got at the newly opened Za-Zu restaurant in front of the Surf Pool where 6000 tons of sand lie.

FnB director: “Just order anything on the menu.”

Melody to my ear after a looong day.

And the camera crew!

After a long day, I decided to record this on my way to meet some friends at the curve on a massive jam. I call it "Car Talk" :p




Kids, don’t try this at home.

  6. Watching you without your belt doing a video while driving made me a bit edgy. Like I was watching another installation of Final Destination. Well at least this one has a happy ending.

    Love your blog, btw.

  9. naughty naughty. they really ought to create a new rule - don't videoblog and drive! without a seatbelt too. maybe you can get one of them mounts to hook your camera up to your windscreen like GPS navigation units. ok, friendly neighbourhood car person signing off.

  10. buckle up= safe and sound

  11. Been there earlier this year...i still think its dodgy. not to mention i almost drowned trying to save my female fren from drowning in the "smaller" wave pool..and the life guard just sat and watched others in bikinis. water was dirty...and yeah, i found a sanitary pad in the giant surf pool...kids were having a go at it by throwing it at each other ...and many places (walkway) are too slippery for a water themepark.
    the poor tigers look skinny and hungry...

    Despite all that, i think sunway lagoon water park is a nice picturesque waterpark, enjoyable... but only on off peak days.

    my paint-ball joint is in sg buloh...its inside a secondary jungle, and we make full use of the elements offered by the jungle! its crazy!!! i couldnt last the whole 30mins in jungle scene..panting too badly from all the running and crawling and ducking...and made worse by having to breathe thru the mask.
