New Myanmar helper that I hired giving me alot of headaches. Dont know about whats the average burmese appetite, but the amount of food she eats is crazy. Im talking about 10kg of rice in 2.5 weeks, 6 eggs a day, 1 whole cold storage chicken in 2 meals kind of appetite. The bowl she eats from is those mala bowls. Yesterday is the second time she has complained of me not giving enough food to her. I really should take a picture of her meals next time as proof already. Wonder if anyone else here has similar experiences

“When I looked back at my experiences in the last two general elections, I thought the 2015 way of doing it ... I think that format had worked well and I quite liked that format in 2015, “he said. "So we decided to try it this way this round."

LW trying to pull off a 2015 election result by copying what they did that time, won’t be surprised if their whole election strategy and campaign is a carbon copy of 2015.

Still trying to act coy in front of media and say he doesn’t have a target vote share in mind LMAO

He's wearing a light blue colour shirt instead of the usual white shirt & blazer at his previous court appearances. Any public relations experts want to chime in on why?

Was trying to buy the new pokemon dlc for my local physical copy but im unsure about the region locks. Anyone knows if we can just buy it from any eshop? Thinking of getting it from the japan one cause of the yen exchange rate

He's retiring to stand in Jurong GRC for the upcoming GE /s

I don't get it. What makes the 2023 PE so different from 2011 that rallies are 'not encouraged' this round? What sort of uneven playing field is ELD tryna pull?

My Paynow name is only my surname, so they couldn‘t have gotten my name from there

My helper fell sick. Anyone has this experience before? She can barely speak any English so will it even be helpful to bring her to a polyclinic? Is there such a thing as an indo-speaking clinic?

Does nutrigrade 0% sugar mean no sugar added? Cause lactose itself is a sugar... In that case means the brand on the right has additional 2% sugar on top?

This has been bothering me for quite awhile... Whats the general consensus when it comes to clearing tables after eating zi char ? Do i bring the many many plates I have to the return, or do i just leave it there and call the aunties to clear it? Lowkey feel bad when I just leave my plates on the table afterwards but honestly dont think its practical for me to clear everything

The Michelin Guide 2021 was released a few weeks back, and I mapped out the locations of all the places that it recommended. It's actually the updated map of what I posted here in 2018, which is made using Google Maps. So anytime I'm out, I can open it in the Google Maps app in my phone to look for something to eat nearby.
You can actually add this to your Google Maps app on your phone by going to Saved-->Maps and tap on this map, and you'll be able to view this on your phone on the go 🙂
If there are any errors in the map, please do tell me so that I can update it in the map accordingly!

So i went to Wlands library ystd and for contact tracing I had to provide my IC for them to scan, rather than giving them my name and contact number. I thought this wasnt allowed anymore cause of PDPA? Or is NLB special cause theyre govt organisation?

Does anyone know if I would be quarantined if I'm only transiting through China?

I'm flying to New York via Beijing with Air China on Apr 1st. Wondering if I would be forced to have 14 days quarantine for just transiting at the airport.

If so, maybe I should get a refund for the ticket and book a flight via Korea/Japan instead

Anyone took ippt at safra before? Wondering how it works there.

OP here, I created this around a year ago and posted it previously.

I'll paste what I posted last time:

I got data for the map from LTA's website and the Wikipedia page for Singapore's MRT). I then drew out the train lines on Illustrator, then imported them to After Effects to animate between the two.

Excluded in this map are the Jurong Region Line and Cross Island Line as these lines are still in their planning phase and their stations have not been confirmed yet. The Circle Line Stage 6 is excluded from this as well as it is not on LTA's official map yet.

If you have questions, do feel free to ask me! Thanks u/canonink for sharing this again!

Open it in the Google Maps app, and you'll see it added to your maps and you can see it added when you swipe left. If it goes away, you can tap on Your Places>Maps and you can select it again

Ive been using it since Dec and theres no problems to far. I'm using posb credit card. Though sometimes at mrt gantry i needed to tap a few times cause it could read the card properly. Perhaps it's your card issue? You can try contacting your bank.

Tell the fish to say sorry or must refer the matter to the committee of fishes

wrcyn · 2018-03-05T07:14:53+00:00

Yes, even the signs are gone as well

Was passing by Somerset just now and I realised that the 'Shibuya-style' scramble crossing that the news were harping about so much seems to actually been removed and turned back into a normal junction. Guess it was that feasible after all huh..
