I can leave the house under perfect sunshine, then 5 minutes later it’s pouring like crazy. Suddenly everything changes.... transport, timing, mood, everything. Even with umbrella!!! it never feels fully prepared.
I don’t even trust weather apps anymore!!
With COE prices and public transport quality, some say owning a car is unnecessary luxury. Others say it still offers freedom and convenience worth paying for...
Or is this just a polite way of saying not with you or I don't like you? Because sometimes they say it, then two weeks later they’re in a relationship with someone else. It’s confusing but also kind of universal at this point...
I just want to eat peacefully but suddenly I’m in a Q&A session about my love life. Every answer I give somehow leads to more questions.
Even now, hearing that bell brings back memories of school days, heat, and standing at the roadside deciding chocolate or rainbow.
What Singapore sound instantly brings you back?
We’re often seen as polite but reserved. Do you think real friendliness is common here or only in certain situations?
I only realized how Singaporean I was after traveling overseas. I automatically stand on the left side of escalators, walk super fast everywhere, and get irrationally annoyed when people block the path. I also catch myself saying “can can,” “walao,” and “eh” without thinking.
What’s something you do that instantly exposes you as Singaporean even when you’re overseas?
Not because of cheating or crazy fights but bc you kept thinking maybe things would go back to how they used to be. Sometimes the love’s still there but the vibe or connection slowly just ain’t the same anymore.
Anyone else experienced this?
Sometimes I see queues so long until it looks like people are collecting free money but some places really do deserve the hype.
What’s one food spot in Singapore where you queued damn long but ended up thinking ok yeah… worth it sia???
No cheating, no big fight, everything seems fine… then one day the feelings just kinda fade.
Is love just like that or people just slowly drift without noticing?
I swear for me it’s “lah”.. it just comes out automatically like punctuation at this point. I only realize it’s Singlish when I text someone who’s not from here and they’re confused.
Like automatically queuing properly even when there’s no clear line or standing super left on escalators out of habit. Also the auto pilot way we say sorry/excuse me even in tiny space and how quiet MRT rides feel normal to us but not everywhere else lol.
One person says anything or anywhere but somehow every suggestion got rejected one by one
By the time y’all finally decide, half the restaurants already closing already lol
not gonna lie, sometimes i feel more lonely even tho i’m technically not single... like we’re together and all but it still feels like there’s a gap i can’t explain. we talk, we hang out but something still feels missing.
is this just a normal phase or am i overthinking it?
