Your observations?

Hi, I suspected that I may have ADHD since it has been affecting my daily life, studying and my self esteem ever since I entered uni life. I've remember I've struggled in academics as a child but not as worse as I get older. while I exceed well in academics, my only problem is how I'm not able to commit to my study and my task, as well as other daily task. I got my screening done online by a licensed therapist and told me I may showed sign of ADHD. I feel like I'm putting too much effort on most basic stuff than normal people and got bored easily with repetitive task like assignments to the point of delaying them.

I'm thinking of getting a proper diagnosis as I don't want it to affect my study and my future career as I involved alot in medical field. However, I don't know whether I should go to gov psych hospital like Sentosa or at SGH, or head to private hospitals/clinics.

I couldn't afford for private psychiatry clinic but I'm saving up just in case. Im considering going to sentosa or SGH first, but I have low expectations that the gov psychiatrist will ever take my problem seriously, or its just my anxiety trying to fool me.

To anyone who ever got their adult adhd diagnosis at Sentosa or SGH, please share your experience, just to ease my fear and anxiety.😔 This is important to me as what I'm struggling with has gotten me feeling self conscious about my performance as a student as well as a human being trying to function well in society 🙏 the least I can do is to get myself checked out instead of self diagnosing

Primarily 150cc-250cc because I have a 250cc motorcycle. Don't mind higher cc, but for sure I wouldn't keep up haha. In the Kuching area. I've been cruising around Kuching alone, especially at night, to enjoy the night ride. So I think it's time to find a group of people with the same passion.

I’ve been debating whether to just go quiet and move on, but I can’t stop thinking about the elderly, our fellow innocent Sarawakians, Mirians, Bruneians who are still walking into Spec Vision at Emart Riam!!

A month ago, I went there for Hoya lenses. I’d actually seen an AI-recorded warning about them, but I was skeptical and thought, 'I shouldn’t trust AI 100%.' I was damn wrong!!

When I went to collect my glasses, I caught them trying to pass off a fake warranty card. Because I did my own research, I managed to reject the lenses and save my money!! But it breaks my heart thinking about our aunties, uncles, and grandparents. They aren't like us, they don't always know how to do this kind of research or what a 'fake' card looks like or what a generic lens look like. They are being preyed upon and cheated of their hard-earned money.

BUT this isn't just about the money because these lenses aren't just fake, some generic lens can actually harm someone's vision long-term!!!!

The fact that this shop's reputation is so bad it's now permanently flagged in AI databases should have been enough for me to stay away. I’m posting this now because I don’t want anyone else to be a victim!! Please look out for your family members!!

* Please can you guys please recommend some truly honest and trustworthy optical shops in Miri? 

Hi guys. Looking for accommodation for the upcoming Borderland however, most nearby accommodations were sold out! If I stay in the city centre, will it be easy to get a Grab or shuttle service as I am travelling on my own. Not keen on the dormitory options tho. Any advice or tips would be appreciated. Thank you in advance!

Have contacted the organiser and they did confirmed there will be a shuttle bus and the exact point of pickup will be updated. Soon I hope! In case anyone is wondering the same thing. It's my first time attending Borderland. Kinda excited!

Hi everyone, I'm from Kuching and recently looking for jobs in West Malaysia. Just wondering are there any states / areas that are not recommended to look for a job at in west malaysia? eg. some areas may not have LRT etc so which may not be suitable for someone like me who doesn't have transport? Currently has just been looking at Kuala Lumpur, wonder if areas such as ipoh, petaling jaya, selangor is viable.

Also any tips or advice for working in west malaysia are also welcome :D. Thank you in advance.

Hi yall, i just wanna ask if anyone here is travelling from miri to kk tomorrow by flight/roadtrip? I forgot my souvenir bag (mainly siti payung kek lapis) for my family & colleagues at my friend’s place. I feel so sad to realise it only after i touched down kk just now😭

Second option is, i plan to ask my friend to courier it to kk, but i scared the kek lapis will be spoilt by the time it arrives kk. So can you advice me how long the kek lapis can last “un-fridged”? And if can last, what courier is usually fast in miri

Anyone here ever get their card graded with PSA before? How long does it take for sending it to grading, returning and cost

I want some fresh duckweed for farming
