“It was a great experience at the Universal Studios. I never thought I would go for such rides, as I have always thought that the rides would be scary. It was surprising to me that Universal Studios had vegetarian food. I enjoyed having vegetarian burger. The rides made me realize that I was much more tougher than I thought I was. Thank you so much.”

Overall , we learned to overcome our own fear and trust other team members especially the mouse trap activity.

This could be applied to our daily works whereby we learn to trust our counterparts when implementing new initiatives facing new challenges together.”
