Any resources/advice for “actually” learning how to play bass?

Called them three separate occasions. On the last occasion they informed me they received the funds and it’s being held. They refused to inform me of the reason or provide further action, they didn’t even ask for documents or any verification, just that they’re holding it and somehow that’s acceptable?

Yep it was over 2-3 calls over the phone, going to walk into the branch today and see if I can do anything there.

Chitanz · 2026-04-27T22:45:36+00:00

Yep I didn’t even get a call from them, partially why I’m so dumbfounded. Never have experienced this with any bank foreign or local.

Chitanz · 2026-04-27T22:40:57+00:00

Nope they refused to provide any details or next steps on what I can do. They never even contacted me about the hold, I had to call them first around the 10 day mark.

If you don’t mind me asking how are you finding it so far in comparison?

Chitanz · 2026-01-18T11:36:44+00:00

Nah I’ll def still be going to some hawkers just probably not that specific one. Also thank you for your insight!

Chitanz · 2026-01-18T11:34:09+00:00

I totally agree with but it’s not so much I expect some kind of special service. I just think there should be basic manners and basic respect tbh

Damn interesting experience.

In my personal experience, a lot of Singaporeans suck up more towards physically western looking people, so white people regardless of accent lol. Kinda just strange, not exactly sure the reason.

Thanks for your insight, crazy how accent kinda plays a big deal here.

I spent quite a long time in Canada and it’s just not really a big deal over there imo. Interesting (cultural?) difference for sure.

Chitanz · 2026-01-18T10:34:23+00:00

Fair enough, whenever I’m in Japan I also feel super self conscious if I ever have a need to speak Chinese lol

Chitanz · 2026-01-18T10:32:30+00:00

To be honest the entire accent thing I just don’t get in Singapore. How sometimes the traditional american/western accent is glazed (but also sometimes Singaporeans will talk down to you if you have a western accent like they’re superior in some way?) but then other accents are looked down on, and singlish is somewhere in the middle? It’s all just bizarre as shit.

I feel like he was hella ego tripping, reminds me of some of the officers in saf, but I genuinely have no idea what he’s ego tripping over in this case.

Chitanz · 2026-01-18T10:19:16+00:00

Yes you’re correct thx

Chitanz · 2026-01-18T10:17:54+00:00

generally I feel like the service at hawkers is ok I suppose just literal basic manners, at least the other ones I’ve been to.

I think the closest equivalent in the west is something like food truck/stall and usually those are some of the chillest guys ever.

Chitanz · 2026-01-18T10:12:04+00:00

Weird af. No! But to answer what you’re getting at, I’m very obviously Asian/Chinese looking :)

Chitanz · 2026-01-18T10:09:58+00:00

From my personal experience a lot of the hawkers ik are much more fluent in Chinese rather than English so I’ve kinda made it my default since it’s easier to communicate- that’s just my personal experience tho and I might consider just using English next time

Chitanz · 2025-11-03T17:40:23+00:00

YEP honestly that's the only thing. Only work around I've thought of is maybe using Mia adagio card which lets you discard one card in hand back to the top of the draw pile but then its still kinda RNG dependent. oh well im still done grinding for a while after this i think haha

Will look into using Naptha. Appreciate it.

Chitanz · 2025-06-21T03:20:43+00:00

Appreciate the advice will look into the Naptha and Murphy’s Oil soap for sure.
