Petrosains Aquaria

Trip to petrosains and Aquaria located at KLCC. First stop, petrosains. Been there few times and for me its sorta boring but then again, we spent more times there than at Aquaria. Probably because of there's a lot of people queuing for the helicopter ride which took us almost half an hour, more or less and not to forget queuing from the start before taking this slow ride thingy to take us into the exhibition area. Had a 10minutes brunch due to late on schedule. Waited for few minutes again before going to Aquaria and lecturers told us we only have an hour to spend there. Sorta disappointed, but its better than nothing because we payed for it. It was fun there with the others but I must say, today's trip was way too tiring than I expected. And I still wonder why we gotta go to a trip to Petrosains and Aquaria.

Disneyland

If only trip to Disneyland would be cheaper, the whole class would definitely go for a trip to one of the Disneyland. Even so, our lecturers showed us all of the Disneyland included the history of the first Disneyland till the current Disneyland. Well, Disneyland is a theme park which was based on television cartoon and was designed and built under the direct supervision of Walt Disney who was also the original creator of the Disney's cartoon. The concept for Disneyland began one Sunday, when Walt Disney was visiting Griffith Park with his daughters Diane and Sharon. While watching his daughters ride the Merry-Go-Round, he came up with the idea of a place where adults and their children could go and have fun together. That's how it all started. Today, Disneyland was a success theme park through-out the world. Well, at least it was fun watching the video about Disneyland during class.

IMAX's Time Square trip

I Heard the trip to IMAX's cinema Time Square, KL. The purpose? I think is was to study the huge IMAX's screen which are curvy compare to other cinemas which has flat screen. Though when the movie starts playing, the image are just in normal size as other cinemas due to the IMAX's cinema lack on budget to bought an IMAX's film which disappoints me a little. But, discovering the curvy IMAX's screen was rather interesting. Our lecturer asked us which are the best spot to watch the movie. I figured it was suppose on the middle, straight to the middle of the screen but I was wrong. At the end of the movie, he told us, the best spot is not actually viewing straight to the middle of the screen but from the sides. This is because, when you viewing from the middle and straight to the screen, your eyes can't read the the images on your left and right due to the curve of IMAX's screen.
