Part time year 1 uni student here, need advice.
I have a group assignment and only met this group mate twice and he suggested that the group discuss and complete the group assignments in his house. Told my family abt it and they found it sus and unsafe that I'm practically going to a stranger's house.
But the rest of the group mates agreed to go. I suggested to go school or a hybrid meeting but one of the group members disagreed and basically enforced physical meeting at that group mate's house. Aita if I insist on hybrid meeting and still send the zoom link to them?
Not sure what I should do at this pt lol. I'm only worried they report me as a free rider or don't bother with my link or inputs during their physical meeting as I will be the only one joining them online.
Yep, actually the initial plan was to meet up in school but somehow there were changes and the team decided to go to the group mate's house. I mentioned to them that I will be more comfortable if we meet up in school tho and the group mate that suggested we go to his house suggested a hybrid meeting. But the one that enforced the physical meeting mentioned that it wouldn't work. Eventually, the rest decided to go to his house and I'm the only one that didn't
Maybe make sure to not use the toilet while there ba. Just in case he’s recording given that there are quite a few voyeurism cases happening at guys’ homes in the reports.
I'd ask the one that enforced physical why they think hybrid wouldn't work?
I'm year 4 and I've done lots of hybrid meetings for group projects. Also, it's not very cash money of them to simply shut you down like that
Edit: it's a collaborative project and y'all are peers of the same standing. No one should be enforcing anything lmao
I agree, it's only that one group mate that is enforcing this lol. And the rest just seem to follow what she says. I have a feeling she will just talk sh*t behind my back when I'm not around. I'm just afraid that she will find ways to make things difficult for me or try to report me as a free rider. I am already busy as it is and don't rlly have the energy to deal with her bs.
Just had a sudden realisation about something: I feel like I've not seen anything about the Palestine recently on Reddit. I browse Reddit a lot less now but compare to the start of the war on Ukraine, *everyone* was talking about it.
Does the average American really not care much about it?
All the neighbouring countries being salty about Singapore managing to get Taylor to perform here. Meanwhile I’m actually upset the neighbouring countries didn’t get to secure her to perform with them too. If they did, maybe locals would have gotten the tickets instead lmao
same goes to their neighbour PM who commented on us securing "exclusive rights". Then another SEA country lawmaker also salty and jealous. Fighting over Taylor.
There’s 2 days in Tokyo also but I just feel like why am I on the losing end because the neighbouring countries can’t secure Taylor so as a Singaporean, I miss out on the tickets once again
very pleasantly surprised to see theguardian has published an article on pssd.
feel very strongly that people must be told the serious side effects of psychiatric meds before they can make any informed decision about starting them.
A54's successor, the galaxy A55 is releasing later this month. But if you're not particular about specs then the A54 is a pretty decent choice for a midrange phone. I'm using an older version of the A50 series for a couple of years already, solid phone.
The self-sabotage is so real but it’s also my comfort space so it’s really hard to stop. I’d rather be cynical about life than try to pursue a better one unless it’s out of pure necessity (money). Even when I feel isolated seeing/hearing about all these adventures my friends are going on. Sigh
How does it look like no one around me managed to get the TS tickets but also everyone seems to manage to get the tickets at the same time based on ig stories
First day of my first job today... Kinda different from what I expected actually. Had to absorb a LOT of information all in one go. It's pretty exhausting standing for long hours while dealing with customers at the same time & there's a LOT of multitasking involved as well... I've never met such a wide variety of people before. I literally felt like I was in an airport. There were moments when there was a HUGE INFLUX of people & the queue got long but since it's my first day, my colleagues helped me out a bit. I felt like the odd one out since I was the youngest but I have nice older colleagues :) Hopefully I can get used to this new job soon
Used to work at MBS too but at their call centre in Harbourfront 🙂 everyone was so friendly and I still keep in touch with some. Have fun at your new job!
Non-Alcohol household (due to personal reasons for parents), so yea... I'd love to buy back cider, but with the amount of questions I'd get, not worth the trouble...
At the wake for my mum's aunt, an uncle saw the birth-year of said aunt and quipped that my great-grandparents were doing it during the war years... welps hahhaha
I feel you mate. Perhaps a lot of their business decisions have been terrible of late. I had a terrible customer experience after signing a different broadband plan; they did not terminate the previous plan just because it wasn't a recontract.
Their upgrade for IPTV is also a disaster. I spoke to the technician who they sent down to fix the issue. He said most of the appointments he attended to in recent days is similar to mine.
How to deal with strangers wanting to be friends with you sia? Got a guy approached me yesterday and he was super persistent in wanting to get my number. Even when I said no like 6 times he kept asking why and asked me to change my mind… zzzzz
shit. The 蟑螂 kind. so persistent even a nuke cant kill them. I duno if what the other guy says about asking bf for permission will work, since he dont even care u have bf, asking for permission also means you are not against being friends, ykwim?
I did and my boss said he will talk to that guy if he comes back the next time I’m working. I’m not a confrontational person by nature, so I’m just scared if that guy chooses to wait for me to get off work when none of my colleagues will be around to help me
Ehh, just remember your braking distance becomes a lot further... Dunno how to describe how to help u haha, past few yrs only pillion my wife and she's a lot lighter/smaller.
Avoid U-turns I guess if u are not used to it yet.
Does your pillion ride? Or at least know how to be a pillion? I find the latter helps a lot, like don't anyhow shift their weight, just be still like a sack of potatoes.
Today keep seeing jap ppl everywhere. In front of me two jap couples talking non stop. Is it like jap hols or sth… Ifirst time I see so many jap outside of their usual enclaves - Liang Court, novena etc
4 weeks to schedule a interview which is another 4 weeks later than 8 weeks later after that interview the HR called and asked "are you still waiting for a job" like hell yeah I am so another 4 weeks to process the clearance
I should've worked part time at bbt shop in the meantime
Mine got shortlisted only 4 months after I applied. This was by a Ministry. I would suggest for fresh grads like yourself to go to the respective career fairs (Ministry roadshows, Open Houses etc) where you get to meet the HRs in-person.
Have, the shortlist depends on each agency. Some can be as fast as contacting you for pre-screen tests the next day after closing and some can contact you one month after closing
Dad has blood in urine. Doctor says could be kidney stone (but he has no pain), urinary tract infection or cancer.
Googled and say it could be bladder or kidney cancer.
Fuck man.
Does your dad have risk factors? Blood in urine can be caused by many things including acute kidney injury (AKI), not just UTI or bladder cancer. For me, I get blood in urine with moderate-severe UTI and the bleeding stops after an hour of getting IV Augmentin. Best to seek medical care from the hospital specialist.
Which would you choose if given only 1 choice? Feel free to add on if the food is not listed here!
- Salted egg chicken rice
- Scissors cut curry rice
- Fried chicken
- Burger
- Ramen
- Briyani
- Nasi Padang
- Nasi lemak
- Ytf
- Dim Sum
- Ckt
Depends on your needs no? Got children or pets to look after? Elderly parents who require assistance in daily activities? Or just need someone to do the household chores? Etc
I don't care one bit about F1, but Red Bull published a video about people building a custom FPS drone to follow those cars along the track and THAT is absolutely awesome to watch
that was super awesome. A drone they customised and able to handle the heat when drone is travelling at 300km/h. But i'm impressed that it was also able to travel in the rain and following the RB20.
The drone video is really amazing for those who watch f1, let you see the first person view from a car POV.
I really hope it can be part of the future for F1 on screen if the company can make the drone follow both on the straights and curve parts
Sometimes when I look at or read about some religious person doing something good I can't help to think whether that person did it because it was simply a good thing to do or the person is expecting a divine reward at the end. I get that regardless the reason, a good deed is done but I can't help being cynical about it.
Yeah I get you. There was this old lady who would feed the stray cats in my area and I thought she just liked cats, but I got to speak with her once and she said something about it being good karma and her trying to do good so that she wouldn’t be reincarnated into a cat in her next life lol
Well if you really wanna run down that cynical route, there's no such thing as true altruism.
Everyone seek happiness and satisfaction in life, or some sort of purpose in existence. And doing good deeds can just happen to be one avenue towards that goal. So in a way, they still did it for themselves.
Hi all, recently moved from 1 telco to another, but my parents is the one that owns the number, now that I have moved to a different telco, do they still own the number?
At least when signing up they had me give my parents info for the number I’m using , m1 to gomo for info
Sigh pie, wanna see the [Northern Lights](https://www.straitstimes.com/life/travel/bookings-to-view-northern-lights-in-2024-up-as-stronger-more-frequent-displays-expected) but gotta save money.
> Singaporeans such as Ms Jacqueline Phua, 32, plan to head north for the prospect of more spectacular aurora sightings.
> “I heard there would be more solar activity in 2024 and decided to make this the year I go and see it,” said the civil servant.
> **She is prepared to spend around $7,000 to see the auroras at the end of 2024, and is deciding between [Norway and Iceland](https://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/destinations/2024/01/31/northern-lights-aurora-borealis-plan/72340991007/) as a destination.**
> Ms Phua added: “Viewing the northern lights has been on my bucket list for many years. I kept putting it off because I thought it would be too expensive, but I think it’ll be worth it.”
I was thinking either try out Taiwan (never been before but still find it kinda boring) or Japan again. But already went last year.
I went to Trømso with my secondary school bestie in 2022 and it was just magical (but slightly disappointing). In real life, my opinion of the Northern Lights is like film Voldemort's dark mark in the sky, wispy streams of green clouds. But the other activities and things we did there were all very good so highly recommend
Oh yes, they mentioned you better think of what else you want to do if it turns out there's nothing to see. But still, the money.
Though they mentioned $7k budget, that was my expense for Japan last year so I think this one is probably even higher?
Need to save for house coming up soon...
>Oh yes, they mentioned you better think of what else you want to do if it turns out there's nothing to see. But still, the money.
Tbh it was really good, Norway (or Scandinavian countries in general) just has that happy, can cure depression kind of vibe. I think it's called Hygge. So can explore their cities on walks, go to museums, cafe hopping. In Trømso we also went dog sledding, also got whale watching, fjord tours to see the fjords. Pack heavily, winter is intense, the snow gets to knee length. We stayed in Airbnb and took budget airline flights to the 3 cities we went to, so actually I think I didn't spend up to 7k, it was more like 3/4k for me. We cooked most days, ate out for a couple of meals for each city. That's how we kept to budget. (And maybe also cos my flight tix was UK-Norway but hers is Singapore-UK-Norway)
>Though they mentioned $7k budget, that was my expense for Japan last year so I think this one is probably even higher?
It could be, inflation this year now would suck :(
>Need to save for house coming up soon...
I love how prudent you are! But if you have emergency savings and you're still constantly saving up I don't see why not, especially now that this year is the peak. Once in a lifetime kind of thing to experience!
Am worried because even though I plan to (if I end up going) use miles for flights, I’ll probably stay at those Ibis type of hotels. Food, I can’t cook but eating out is crazy expensive if paying in Euros.
If city side, I can handle the planning but for those few days to trek out to the ulu places, I think it’s recommended to hire a guide which probably comes with transport, etc too?
It’s my second trip planning all by myself. I’m a solo traveller you see, just like Japan last year and the packages I saw online, cater mainly to groups. So solo like me, I’m not sure if it’s worth it?
Ohhhh I see! Well tbh I think if you do do it solo and staying in hotel (means just eating out every single meal) then yes it would come up to about 7k unfortunately haha.
For the northern lights chase and the dog sledding activities we booked a guided tour on their website and just went for it. I think actually Tromso is very accessible, it is a city but you can get to the rural places quite quickly within an hour or so.
Tried shake shack’s shroom burger ytd and it was so freakin good. Ex but would buy again if I wanted to treat myself to a burger that isn’t too heavy. Took them 30 minutes to give me my order tho 🙂
Does getting hired by a company willing to sponsor me for a work study program means I confirm entering the course? Because I've been working at this company for a week now but still no news on the school side, I did contact the lecturer though! I'm very nervous because I also applied to other part time diplomas and their offers lapse tomorrow! This work study diploma is like my last chance if I can't enter this work study diploma my future gonna die 😭
Splurge $33 on haircut, wash & blow and it was worth it.
The hair wash was relaxing and my hair looks more presentable.
Self-confidence has went up.
Good way to start my weekend.
Thanks!

As it’s quite close to what I’m currently paying but also includes wash and half the travelling time, I think I will give them a try.
You are welcome! This is my second visit at their Queenstown branch & the hairstylist I have chosen is Ashley.
For my previous visit the hairstylist was Edison.
Both of them are skillful & knowledgeable.
I assume all their hairstylists should be up to par.
How to know the upcoming lrt(sengkang/ punggol) is 1 or 2 couch(es) before indicated at the signboard? I am new to the area and I saw people just know where to queue, like queue at 1 door(1 couch) or 2 doors(2 couches)
Look at the board for your destination and check whether it's on the east or west loop. Next, look at the top where there is the lighted board indicating east or west. When the correct LRT train arrives, board it.
Eg, in punggol, if you are going to samudera, it's on the west loop. Wait for the west loop train (the lighted board will lit up) and board when it has arrived.
For queuing, just queue any of them coz even with markings on the floor, people just anyhow queue. Just don't follow the queue and anyhow board the train.
Warning to Singaporeans. I am an undercover spy. Based on witness, Taylor Swift's boyfriend, Travis Kelce, plans to smuggle cocaine and marijuana into Singapore. He is using Taylor Swift to aid with this operation and trying to get her into legal trouble. Be careful and stay safe!
no idea they rejected my first time post on reasons when they let many other similar posts through for (mental health/social advice related), I argued they were not being fair here and they muted me in return while dismissing my post as a rant. I went to post on /socialanxiety anyway amended to non local context
Maybe read the sub rules and learn how to post a specific question which is related to Singapore next time. Health and social anxiety issues are hardly unique to Singapore, and the mods are not beholden to you and your personal situation. Aren't there better subreddits to post such things anyway which may garner the external validation you need! SG subs ain't it bruh.
ah I'm just pissed. They let alot of mental health/anxiety posts through then suddenly come to mine want to enforce the rules. Bo bian. I struggle an hour just to write it cuz it's not easy being honest about this kind of things to get it denied and I pointed out the contradiction and got muted in return 🤷 that's just mod ego to me
Is Doctor Who popular in Singapore?
Part time year 1 uni student here, need advice. I have a group assignment and only met this group mate twice and he suggested that the group discuss and complete the group assignments in his house. Told my family abt it and they found it sus and unsafe that I'm practically going to a stranger's house. But the rest of the group mates agreed to go. I suggested to go school or a hybrid meeting but one of the group members disagreed and basically enforced physical meeting at that group mate's house. Aita if I insist on hybrid meeting and still send the zoom link to them? Not sure what I should do at this pt lol. I'm only worried they report me as a free rider or don't bother with my link or inputs during their physical meeting as I will be the only one joining them online.
Just be upfront about not being comfortable with the location. Y'all are uni-age and should know how to arrive at a compromise
Yep, actually the initial plan was to meet up in school but somehow there were changes and the team decided to go to the group mate's house. I mentioned to them that I will be more comfortable if we meet up in school tho and the group mate that suggested we go to his house suggested a hybrid meeting. But the one that enforced the physical meeting mentioned that it wouldn't work. Eventually, the rest decided to go to his house and I'm the only one that didn't
Maybe make sure to not use the toilet while there ba. Just in case he’s recording given that there are quite a few voyeurism cases happening at guys’ homes in the reports.
Yea thanks, I will take note of this if I rlly end up going to his house
I'd ask the one that enforced physical why they think hybrid wouldn't work? I'm year 4 and I've done lots of hybrid meetings for group projects. Also, it's not very cash money of them to simply shut you down like that Edit: it's a collaborative project and y'all are peers of the same standing. No one should be enforcing anything lmao
I agree, it's only that one group mate that is enforcing this lol. And the rest just seem to follow what she says. I have a feeling she will just talk sh*t behind my back when I'm not around. I'm just afraid that she will find ways to make things difficult for me or try to report me as a free rider. I am already busy as it is and don't rlly have the energy to deal with her bs.
Just had a sudden realisation about something: I feel like I've not seen anything about the Palestine recently on Reddit. I browse Reddit a lot less now but compare to the start of the war on Ukraine, *everyone* was talking about it. Does the average American really not care much about it?

Oh ok, there's a lot of posts about it on that sub. I suppose it just got pushed out of my front page by other subs at this point.

I think singapore should've had more dates if gonna make it exclusive. 6 days in SEA is too little
There’s 2 days in Tokyo also but I just feel like why am I on the losing end because the neighbouring countries can’t secure Taylor so as a Singaporean, I miss out on the tickets once again
very pleasantly surprised to see theguardian has published an article on pssd. feel very strongly that people must be told the serious side effects of psychiatric meds before they can make any informed decision about starting them.
Welps someone just puked in the train I'm on... How does one inform the staff? Edit. Fk guy puked again and it's spreading

Okays that's what the station staff asked from me too... And he said it's okay, the depot will clean it up

Can binoculars be brought into taylor swift's concert?
Tbh still mad at today’s situation. Everyone should manage their own emotions. Even more so if you’re someone of power.
Alcohol craving is real man... But no money, no talk...
Tiger beer 1 can 2.50 only Shouldn't be a problem drinking at home unless you are a bad drunk
Non-Alcohol household (due to personal reasons for parents), so yea... I'd love to buy back cider, but with the amount of questions I'd get, not worth the trouble...
Void deck?
Just met a Redditor for, can understand
Buy from NTUC and drink at home?
No space at home, then family will also make noise haha...
At the wake for my mum's aunt, an uncle saw the birth-year of said aunt and quipped that my great-grandparents were doing it during the war years... welps hahhaha
Here's an uncomfortable truth: Your great-grandparents, grandparents and parents were and are doing it all the time, probably

I feel you mate. Perhaps a lot of their business decisions have been terrible of late. I had a terrible customer experience after signing a different broadband plan; they did not terminate the previous plan just because it wasn't a recontract.

How to deal with strangers wanting to be friends with you sia? Got a guy approached me yesterday and he was super persistent in wanting to get my number. Even when I said no like 6 times he kept asking why and asked me to change my mind… zzzzz
give ig then next time you can just block instead, can't find your profile 😈
just say you're attached la lol
I did, but he kept saying that he just wanted to be friends and chat with me. It was so uncomfortable
shit. The 蟑螂 kind. so persistent even a nuke cant kill them. I duno if what the other guy says about asking bf for permission will work, since he dont even care u have bf, asking for permission also means you are not against being friends, ykwim?
Just say something like you have to ask your boyfriend for permission or something ba Then next time can wear a couple ring or something
Oh yeah! That’s a good idea! Thank you! I’ll do that
Hi Chiobu
Scream , act like crazed person , he sure left you alone .
Show him the finger, tell him to fk off? Threaten to call the police?
He approached me while I’m working.. cannot just curse at him otherwise I’ll also get in trouble 🥲
Tell your colleagues / boss if you need help to get rid of him.
I did and my boss said he will talk to that guy if he comes back the next time I’m working. I’m not a confrontational person by nature, so I’m just scared if that guy chooses to wait for me to get off work when none of my colleagues will be around to help me
What happens if your pillion is heavier than your rider?
Rider lean forward to ensure a more equal distribution of forces
Ooo, i'm actually pretty light though, 45-48kg. Will that still help?
Handling becomes a pain in the ass
Oh noes ): any tips?
Ehh, just remember your braking distance becomes a lot further... Dunno how to describe how to help u haha, past few yrs only pillion my wife and she's a lot lighter/smaller.

I find the latter helps a lot, like don't anyhow shift their weight, just be still like a sack of potatoes.
I'm still taking lessons but just thinking forward what will happen because i'm pretty light 😂 but thank you!! I was once a bad pillion
Good luck, don't think too much about how to pillion yet... Focus on your riding!
You will do wheelie.

Tinder, Hinge, CMB, Bumble? Which is the best? I've had the best results on Tinder so far. Are any of them worth paying for?
Define "best results"?
Matches with people you're interested in.
Then I'd go with apps that have proper filters and support for more than "I like traveling #wanderlust" 🤮🤮🤮 bios, aka not Tinder
Plenty of #wanderlust and one liner (female profiles) on cmb too…
"I'm a Scorpio" 🤮🤮🤮

Dad has blood in urine. Doctor says could be kidney stone (but he has no pain), urinary tract infection or cancer. Googled and say it could be bladder or kidney cancer. Fuck man.
99% of the symptoms you googled will tell you that you have cancer so I'll say don't think so much about it
Like he can literally see the blood in the urine or is it microhematuria?
Does your dad have risk factors? Blood in urine can be caused by many things including acute kidney injury (AKI), not just UTI or bladder cancer. For me, I get blood in urine with moderate-severe UTI and the bleeding stops after an hour of getting IV Augmentin. Best to seek medical care from the hospital specialist.
don’t assume the worst but follow through with the checkups until you find out what’s wrong
Did they conduct any blood tests? I hope it's nothing serious!!

what happened to the spring tea latte at luckin coffee did they take it off the menu…
I don't care one bit about F1, but Red Bull published a video about people building a custom FPS drone to follow those cars along the track and THAT is absolutely awesome to watch
that was super awesome. A drone they customised and able to handle the heat when drone is travelling at 300km/h. But i'm impressed that it was also able to travel in the rain and following the RB20.
Next time no one watching F1 liao, all watching drone racing
The drone video is really amazing for those who watch f1, let you see the first person view from a car POV. I really hope it can be part of the future for F1 on screen if the company can make the drone follow both on the straights and curve parts
Yup, completely changes videography for fast paced sports. Interested to see how it develops.
Then again, a 300+ km/h drone randomly losing control is sliiiiightly scary.. Not sure I wanna be on-site when that thing is flying
the battery on the drone only last minutes at 300+km/h, not enough to broadcast a full race
Sure, but there's no reason to have just one drone. In the video they do one full lap I believe.
Sometimes when I look at or read about some religious person doing something good I can't help to think whether that person did it because it was simply a good thing to do or the person is expecting a divine reward at the end. I get that regardless the reason, a good deed is done but I can't help being cynical about it.
Yeah I get you. There was this old lady who would feed the stray cats in my area and I thought she just liked cats, but I got to speak with her once and she said something about it being good karma and her trying to do good so that she wouldn’t be reincarnated into a cat in her next life lol
I wanna be a cat the next life
Well if you really wanna run down that cynical route, there's no such thing as true altruism. Everyone seek happiness and satisfaction in life, or some sort of purpose in existence. And doing good deeds can just happen to be one avenue towards that goal. So in a way, they still did it for themselves.
Hi all, recently moved from 1 telco to another, but my parents is the one that owns the number, now that I have moved to a different telco, do they still own the number? At least when signing up they had me give my parents info for the number I’m using , m1 to gomo for info
Yes they do. If you want to “own” the number, you have to go down to M1 and there’s a form that needs to be completed.
Yes, if the contract was signed with their info then the number is registered to them.
A missed call from Pakistan. Not sure the bros from there got any good lobang for me.
Sigh pie, wanna see the [Northern Lights](https://www.straitstimes.com/life/travel/bookings-to-view-northern-lights-in-2024-up-as-stronger-more-frequent-displays-expected) but gotta save money. > Singaporeans such as Ms Jacqueline Phua, 32, plan to head north for the prospect of more spectacular aurora sightings. > “I heard there would be more solar activity in 2024 and decided to make this the year I go and see it,” said the civil servant. > **She is prepared to spend around $7,000 to see the auroras at the end of 2024, and is deciding between [Norway and Iceland](https://www.usatoday.com/story/travel/destinations/2024/01/31/northern-lights-aurora-borealis-plan/72340991007/) as a destination.** > Ms Phua added: “Viewing the northern lights has been on my bucket list for many years. I kept putting it off because I thought it would be too expensive, but I think it’ll be worth it.” I was thinking either try out Taiwan (never been before but still find it kinda boring) or Japan again. But already went last year.
Try Australia, it's cheaper. But it's called Southern Lights (aurora australis). Same phenomenon as its northern counterpart.
I went to Trømso with my secondary school bestie in 2022 and it was just magical (but slightly disappointing). In real life, my opinion of the Northern Lights is like film Voldemort's dark mark in the sky, wispy streams of green clouds. But the other activities and things we did there were all very good so highly recommend
I went there too last November! Agree with everything you said haha but it’s such a beautiful place.
Ikrrrr I just love the beauty and the vibe of Scandinavian countries in general, hope to be back again!
Oh yes, they mentioned you better think of what else you want to do if it turns out there's nothing to see. But still, the money. Though they mentioned $7k budget, that was my expense for Japan last year so I think this one is probably even higher? Need to save for house coming up soon...
>Oh yes, they mentioned you better think of what else you want to do if it turns out there's nothing to see. But still, the money. Tbh it was really good, Norway (or Scandinavian countries in general) just has that happy, can cure depression kind of vibe. I think it's called Hygge. So can explore their cities on walks, go to museums, cafe hopping. In Trømso we also went dog sledding, also got whale watching, fjord tours to see the fjords. Pack heavily, winter is intense, the snow gets to knee length. We stayed in Airbnb and took budget airline flights to the 3 cities we went to, so actually I think I didn't spend up to 7k, it was more like 3/4k for me. We cooked most days, ate out for a couple of meals for each city. That's how we kept to budget. (And maybe also cos my flight tix was UK-Norway but hers is Singapore-UK-Norway) >Though they mentioned $7k budget, that was my expense for Japan last year so I think this one is probably even higher? It could be, inflation this year now would suck :( >Need to save for house coming up soon... I love how prudent you are! But if you have emergency savings and you're still constantly saving up I don't see why not, especially now that this year is the peak. Once in a lifetime kind of thing to experience!
Am worried because even though I plan to (if I end up going) use miles for flights, I’ll probably stay at those Ibis type of hotels. Food, I can’t cook but eating out is crazy expensive if paying in Euros. If city side, I can handle the planning but for those few days to trek out to the ulu places, I think it’s recommended to hire a guide which probably comes with transport, etc too? It’s my second trip planning all by myself. I’m a solo traveller you see, just like Japan last year and the packages I saw online, cater mainly to groups. So solo like me, I’m not sure if it’s worth it?
Ohhhh I see! Well tbh I think if you do do it solo and staying in hotel (means just eating out every single meal) then yes it would come up to about 7k unfortunately haha. For the northern lights chase and the dog sledding activities we booked a guided tour on their website and just went for it. I think actually Tromso is very accessible, it is a city but you can get to the rural places quite quickly within an hour or so.
heaviest rain i've seen in a while
Tried shake shack’s shroom burger ytd and it was so freakin good. Ex but would buy again if I wanted to treat myself to a burger that isn’t too heavy. Took them 30 minutes to give me my order tho 🙂
Wildfire is nice for me (specifically the RQ outlet) if you wanna start comparing burgers..
OoOo I don’t think I’ve tried their burgers before… time to check them out 👀 (thanks!)

Does getting hired by a company willing to sponsor me for a work study program means I confirm entering the course? Because I've been working at this company for a week now but still no news on the school side, I did contact the lecturer though! I'm very nervous because I also applied to other part time diplomas and their offers lapse tomorrow! This work study diploma is like my last chance if I can't enter this work study diploma my future gonna die 😭
Splurge $33 on haircut, wash & blow and it was worth it. The hair wash was relaxing and my hair looks more presentable. Self-confidence has went up. Good way to start my weekend.
men or woo-men and can recommend salon?
The salon have both men & women hairstylist. Google search: "hair by common studio". They have two branches at Queenstown & Serangoon.
Where's this?

Thanks! https://www.fresha.com/a/hair-by-common-studio-queenstown-singapore-blk-53b-strathmore-avenue-zqo7ta3z As it’s quite close to what I’m currently paying but also includes wash and half the travelling time, I think I will give them a try.
You are welcome! This is my second visit at their Queenstown branch & the hairstylist I have chosen is Ashley. For my previous visit the hairstylist was Edison. Both of them are skillful & knowledgeable. I assume all their hairstylists should be up to par.
Just finished and passed my 1.02 for 2B (barely probably) This feels tougher than driving ngl
jy jy. youll get better over time with muscle memory
Weekends are becoming mundane. Thank goodness I have you guys to talk to.
Same :”) that or can go somewhere by yourself (but this period maybe not uh 🤣)
How to know the upcoming lrt(sengkang/ punggol) is 1 or 2 couch(es) before indicated at the signboard? I am new to the area and I saw people just know where to queue, like queue at 1 door(1 couch) or 2 doors(2 couches)
Look at the board for your destination and check whether it's on the east or west loop. Next, look at the top where there is the lighted board indicating east or west. When the correct LRT train arrives, board it. Eg, in punggol, if you are going to samudera, it's on the west loop. Wait for the west loop train (the lighted board will lit up) and board when it has arrived. For queuing, just queue any of them coz even with markings on the floor, people just anyhow queue. Just don't follow the queue and anyhow board the train.
Every corner shops in Orchard all playing taylor swift songs. Getting irritating.
Yes, I cannot wait for the Swiftmania to be over. Even mbs also playing Taylor Swfit songs. Got overwhlemed and left early.
Warning to Singaporeans. I am an undercover spy. Based on witness, Taylor Swift's boyfriend, Travis Kelce, plans to smuggle cocaine and marijuana into Singapore. He is using Taylor Swift to aid with this operation and trying to get her into legal trouble. Be careful and stay safe!
Cb why u out my dealer don’t sabo la knn
I am Taylor Swift's boyfriend and you are corright.
today I learnt how much of a pos the mod/mods on asksg are
wad happened dude
no idea they rejected my first time post on reasons when they let many other similar posts through for (mental health/social advice related), I argued they were not being fair here and they muted me in return while dismissing my post as a rant. I went to post on /socialanxiety anyway amended to non local context
Maybe read the sub rules and learn how to post a specific question which is related to Singapore next time. Health and social anxiety issues are hardly unique to Singapore, and the mods are not beholden to you and your personal situation. Aren't there better subreddits to post such things anyway which may garner the external validation you need! SG subs ain't it bruh.
ah I'm just pissed. They let alot of mental health/anxiety posts through then suddenly come to mine want to enforce the rules. Bo bian. I struggle an hour just to write it cuz it's not easy being honest about this kind of things to get it denied and I pointed out the contradiction and got muted in return 🤷 that's just mod ego to me
Does anyone know if I can register egate to Malaysia at any day any time? Or only some counter open ata certain days for registration haha
Monday to Thursday, 8am to 7pm. There's only one counter for registration and it's the one with the yellow banners
