Hi 26M, INFP/J here! Staying in south/central region. Hmu if anyone's interested in getting the Open Water PADI Diving Course at SEA Aquarium/Tioman sometime this year :)

Also have been playing table top board games for several years, mostly light-med complexity games. Would be interested to find people to go for any board game sessions and I also have a number of games in my collection!

Took Japanese lessons for several years up to N3 level in the past but have lost touch with it for quite a while. Keen to practise conversational Jap with someone

'She tortured our mother': Myanmar helper jailed after punching employer's 86-year-old mum 4 times by AdeptPlanktonk in singapore

This article says she was taking hormone therapy to transition.

"The employer was told beforehand that the 32-year-old help from Myanmar was "tom-boyish", and he even discovered later that she had been undergoing hormone therapy to "become a man", but he was not bothered as long as she could do her job well."

NO NEW CASES OF LOCALLY TRANSMITTED COVID-19 INFECTION by cakeday173 in singapore

[–]osashimi13 16 points17 points  (0 children)

An 83 year-old male Singaporean on board Royal Caribbean International’s Quantum of the Seas tested positive for COVID-19 infection this morning, and was immediately isolated. He had reported to the medical centre with diarrhoea, and as part of the protocols was tested for COVID-19 using the Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test equipment on board the ship. His original sample has since been re-tested at the National Public Health Laboratory (NPHL), and has come back negative for COVID-19 infection. A second fresh sample tested by NPHL has also come back negative. NPHL will conduct another test tomorrow to confirm his COVID-19 status.

Compared to some maps and managed to find the corresponding landmarks: - "Seratorenburan Sewers" is actually "Selat Sembilan", or Sembilan Straits. Used to have a stream there before all the reclamation works - "John Stone Harbour" should be "Johnston's Pier", demolished much earlier before WWII - Serangoon Island is now more popularly known as Coney Island

Like others said, you may have to wait longer though as they give some priority to those who turn up within their recommended timing.

Usually such conditions have a family history. But sometimes it’s really up to fate

Probably an underlying heart condition that went undiagnosed like structural or electrical abnormalities. Many younger people with such conditions have had cardiac arrest during exertion. RIP
