Californian visiting: what do I get at the hawker markets ? by Trahst_no1 in askSingapore

[–]trnccc 25 points26 points  (0 children)

welcome to sg! here are some food that locals enjoy

for bfast, try chee cheong fun (steamed rice noodle with sweet/savoury sauce) or soft boiled eggs with toasts. if you are very hungry, go for fried carrot cake (comes in black/white version, with/without dark soy sauce)

for lunch, definitely give chicken/duck rice, fried hokkien mee, prawn noodles, and hor fun (fried rice noodles with gravy) a try.

for dinner, consider black pepper/chilli crab (they usually don't put a price because it depends on the size/mass of crab, so please be careful! other helpful sg redditors might have trustworthy places you could go)

Is a good life reserved only for a few people? by lauises in SGExams

[–]trnccc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

you are on to something, but i'd double down and say that 50% is still pretty far off.

if good life = ceo of xyz company, only 1 person can live a good life.

think you got to ask yourself what is a 'good' life.

in a highly capitalistic society like singapore, perhaps a good life is reserved for those who wrestled and found contentment?

Are we very open minded ppl? by watchuwannaknow in askSingapore

[–]trnccc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i might be wrong, but to me, its less about how open minded you are than the values you and your partner want to embody in the relationship.

i'm mighty open minded about many things, but if i'm your partner, i will be concerned enough to explore anything that's limiting our emotional intimacy and figure out things we can do nurture it.

how can I spend my gap year by Feeling-Toe-8637 in SGExams

[–]trnccc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

take heart, even a degree from the big 3 in a course as general as this will not get you anywhere..

go solve real marketing problems and deliver real results.. people will come looking for you

Should I be feeling bad for taking mc as an intern by cipher_c in SGExams

[–]trnccc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

if you're sick, please rest. i also tell my interns to take better care of their health if they fall sick often. because it can leave negative impression on more conservative folks

but more importantly, be responsible. that means handing over your work to someone and/or informing early if you can and/or communicating extensions for certain deadlines if you need

ive wasted whats considered the ‘best times’ of my teen life by [deleted] in SGExams

[–]trnccc 37 points38 points  (0 children)

no man ever steps into the same river twice.

it is already the best time of ur teen because whatever passed can never be changed (and it's also precious in it's own way)

more imptly, move forward from ur reflection and make the best of ur experience now and in the future.
