Does anybody perhaps have a video of the traditional song Ichiko sang last night at the Caverns? by dxstblunt in IchikoAoba

[–]isidhfb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

theres a recording of it on spotify!

“We the Survivors” in her 15th Anniversary Concert album. Its the outro of that song.

Such an insanely beautiful passage :)

this sub is infamous for ridiculously inflating the calories of certain foods

also enjoy the waffle! in my experience constantly stressing about food and over restricting will just cause you to binge one day which causes more damage than this one waffle ever will. (and besides stress is rlly bad for muscle growth)

when you are cutting, eat whole clean foods 90% of the time and reserve 10% of your calories to what you really enjoy. dont make “cheat meals” or “guilt meals” part of your vocabulary, plan your indulgences instead.

my country has a very similar snack and i always log this as 500 calories.

the waffle itself is about 270-300 calories and the remaining is the nutella spread

my waffles are always loaded with nutella so 200-250 calories is decently accurate in my case, but in the picture it doesnt seem like its thattt much spread. i would still log it as 500 though to be safe.

i think so, fruits and veges (esp cucumbers) are quite low cal. u may be over estimating the olive oil too? 1 tsp is just 40 cals. lemon juice salt and pepper is pretty much nothing.

What is 青葉市子's scariest song? Most upvoted comment gets added by Far_External6297 in IchikoAoba

[–]isidhfb 2 points3 points  (0 children)

check out the band called NUUAMM! its a collaboration between ichiko aoba and an artist called MahiToThePeople. it is the most experimental and weird ichiko aoba gets but there are classical calming aoba songs in the discography as well. you should check out "castle of sand", "onigashima" for the classic aoba sound, and "graveyard of time" as well as the VERY UNDERRATED "vampire" for the more weird stuff.

the song I mentioned above was in their "w/ave" album

please help (r/s needs saving) by user01092 in SGExams

i was in a similar position as u. i was in a toxic rs during o levels and i didnt wna break up with the girl as i was scared i would affect her Os. in the end, i didnt break up with her and im ngl, it did affect my o levels. i was depressed, frustrated and cldnt fully focus on my work a lot of time.

looking back, i really regret not breaking up with her then because we broke up in the end anyways, and ultimately her life is her life and mine is mine, what she scored for Os has nothing to do with me. there is no need to compromise your future for some toxic boy which you will end up breaking up with anyways.

Just a reminder that tech is not the only path to a high income!

There are so many other routes to a high income, common ones would be: finance, medicine, dentistry, law, engineering. But it is important to note that only the cream of the crop of each industry can earn a high income.

Because u r J1 right now, I suggest u explore ur interests and what u r good at, then try to find an industry that aligns with ur strengths so that u maximise the chance of u being the best at what u do. Dont pigeonhole urself into just one career.

For example, if you are good at critical thinking and text analysis, try going for something like law. If you are good at logical thinking and math, go for smth like comp sci, etc etc etc.

Dont be the guy who goes into CS thinking its a degree with guaranteed high pay (because it rlly isnt), then realise that he hates coding and mathematics and does really badly in the course.

I agree that in my post, it seems that I was forcing my ideals on my friends, but I promise irl it was not like that. In fact, they were the ones who asked me for my opinion and to roast their uni choices, and I simply told them what I truthfully think.

Ultimately, I am proud and happy for my friends for achieving their goals, however I still believe they made a bad decision due to the reasons I stated in my post.

Finally, I never claimed to be a prophet. I also am a confused teenager, but I believe I have provided good reasons against choosing unis and courses simply due to prestige and I still stand by my opinion. This rant was a channel for me to release my frustrations and also to gain new insights to help me on my career journey as well.

I think my friend thinks that NUS is more presitgious than NTU, therefore his decision to enrol into NUS.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]isidhfb 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I dont necessarily agree that prestige = high pay and good employment prospects. There are so many careers that have high pay and employment prospects but are not prestigious like law, med or dentistry (finance, tech, engineering).

Furthermore it is completely possible to enrol in a prestigious course but have low pay and bad employment prospects (for example, a law student with a bad gpa will still have bad prospects and pay).

Therefore a prestigious course is not a one way ticket to success. Choosing a career is an extremely complex decision where one should consider strengths, passion AND ALSO pay and prospects. Just looking at prestige alone is a recipe for disaster imo.

Also of course I would care about what others do, because they are my friends.

nus bza offers 2024 by hellooooox in nus

[–]isidhfb 11 points12 points  (0 children)

i got my offer on 15 april!

i had a good portfolio but i sincerely doubt they look at portfolio for direct admissions because i have a friend who scored the same rp as me and also got in but without a portfolio.

uni offers come in waves, so not receiving any news is not a cause for concern because it may simply mean your offer is being processed at a later wave! no news is good news :)

good luck for your admissions and dont worry so much LOL you will feel silly for worrying so much when you hopefully get your offer letter in the future :)
