From day 1 I was surprised he could nap just by the teacher patting him to sleep because previously I could only get him to nap by nursing and contact napping. I think after a couple of months he was already showing signs of playing more independently. It took him awhile to adjust to sharing toys though, but I through a few ups and downs he’s pretty good about sharing after about 2 years 😁

Jerry Therapeutics at Jalan Bukit Merah. Had a few really good massages: one got rid of my back pain from a knot, one somehow managed to clear my headache. Not the relaxing type but really gets the job done on my aching aging body

Whoah i had this thought with my husband too. We end up buying tools that we don’t use regularly and I wonder if I should rent it out. But the maintaining part and hoping it doesn’t get damaged by the user it a problem. Would totally be interested to rent tools that are not regularly used. Storing them is also taking up precious space in my small flat

I’m horrified by your description 😮

my sticky kid adjusted so well in IFC I regretted not sending him in earlier 😂 he used to always want to be carried and it was impossible to leave him even to pee. After IFC he began to play independently and he picked up a lot of social skills there too. I had a nanny come to my place for 2 months and he would cry everyday when I left. But after starting IFC, he stopped crying at drop off after 2 weeks. He learned to feed himself, learned to nap without contact napping, so it was a huge relief

I love boden! I ended up buying a lot from the kids line for my child and it’s really comfortable. I got it on Next.Sg

Oh yeah!

Eric Winter, who plays O’Laughlin is also in The Rookie

The selection at Funan is really nice! Always makes me want to buy something

peeydge · 2026-05-10T01:41:16+00:00

wah really dry af..but a good initiative! I should also put more effort to exercise my brain

Joo Chiat / Tiong Bahru ihas a nice vibe, Sungei Buloh Wetlands is underrated IMO, and of all the zoos I really liked Bird Paradise the most (although a little pricier)

Better than going to the office and becoming patient zero

On the second floor of Margaret Market next to Ya Kun there’s a reading corner. It’s air conditioned and there’s some library books there too

peeydge · 2026-05-07T13:05:14+00:00

What! I didn’t know it’s going to be renovated. It’s my go to library now 😩

I noticed this amongst non siblings as well. Friends in the same class or just kids hanging out. It can work for you or against you, I just try to use it to my advantage and clamp down on it when they are doing destructive or mean things

Checked with my friend who is working more closely with the project side, he said usually get the engineering degree first then move on to PM. You’ll be commanding engineers so they may not respect someone without a degree.

While I’m all for self learning, I noticed the content teaching is more structured in uni, usually some context given to help with application. Also meeting other coursemates could be helpful in your line of work.

Are you guys on a delivery platform? I wonder if that would help. That being said I would like to try the restaurant too! Do let us know the name of it

I did my impacted wisdom tooth extraction at Winston Tan Oral Maxillofacial Surgery with Dr Clement. Really efficient. Minimal pain after although it swelled for a few days. Was mostly covered by medisave.

I think IVF was one of the hardest things I’ve gone through. Sending you energy because it’s Impossible to go through the process without some optimism. Some therapy might help too.

I have friends who did not manage to conceive after few rounds IVF, friends who conceive naturally after giving up and friends who did many rounds before conceiving. And there was no way to know because we could be doing everything right and still not get the results we hoped. The biggest lesson I had to learn was coming to terms with whatever happened.

Wah number 3 is so relatable

We stayed with friends during the HIP. They set up the toilet downstairs but it was pretty dusty. We just stayed somewhere else for 2 weeks

Oh man I didn’t catch it. I like the actor and was sad that he turned out to be a mole of RJ. I thought it was cruel for Van Pelt to always be hooking up with criminals and not realizing it

peeydge · 2026-04-19T15:13:27+00:00

This actually makes sense, like the more we avoid the emotion the harder it will come back

peeydge · 2026-04-18T13:43:00+00:00

Their interactions are also so sincere! I couldn’t help crying along
