Technology

Technology is something that has become part of our daily lives. One of the technology that i cannot love without is cellphone. Any kind of cellphone would do as long as it can call and test someone else. The second one is Internet. Internet helps me to find out new things that are happening around the world. I can also learn things that are not taught in schools. Last but not least is Facebook. Facebook helps me to communicate with others easily. All the three things that i have mentioned help us, as a human being to interact and communicate with others no matter how far they are apart from us, from one end of the earth, to the other end. They have helped to improve our communication system. I would like to thank the inventors of these three things that they had invented such wonderful things.

TICKETS for Universal Studios theme park went on sale at 9am on Wednesday morning.
Despite the morning rain, there were at least 20 people queuing in line at the box office in Resorts World Sentosa.
The overwhelming demand to book tickets on the phone and online caused the website to crash in the morning and the hotline was perpetually busy.
Engineer Basheer Hamid, 38, was unable to get his tickets and resorted to going down to the site office to get the ticket.
He said: 'I started calling at 9am sharp on two different phone lines and didn't get to speak to anyone despite being on hold for half an hour. I tried the website but it was also down.'
The theme park is slated to open on March 18.



 Reflection:
South-East Asia first Universal Studio is now opening soon. People can't wait for it and everybody is elated. Soon, Singapore will be piled up with crowds from all over the world. The incident that Basheer Hamid experienced might have happened to a lot of other people.As we can see, people are longing for the tickets very badly to enter the Universal Studio Singapore very badly even before the Universal opens.The latest news i heard was the ticket for March 18-20 had been sold out. What happen in June-July holiday will be the main point because people in South-East Asia will purposely come to Singapore to play the Universal Studio mainly from Malaysia and Indonesia. Now, people have been crazy for the tickets and they should prepare for the June-July holidays. Maybe we should also start booking the tickets before we miss the first South-East Asia Universal Studio.
