FLYING MCDONALD MEAL THROWN FROM HDB LANDED AT HOUGANG VOID DECK

Hougang ave 8 blk 437

Earlier in the morning , someone threw their macdonald meals from above floors.
Our country is a great advocate for being a green country but such acts only taints our country image and by such malicious act, the cleaner in charge of this area has more workload to do. Manifesting of rats and bird would only further taint our PAP town council efficiency standards.

At around 12 am, this trash threw the whole pizza down first floor along with the box and it nearly hit my wife on the head because she was doing the laundry. The trash stained some clothes and landed directly on the ground floor. She was very lucky not to get hit by it and FORTUNATELY too no one walked by or the consequences will be dire…

Maybe its time for NEA to install a CCTV.

Will be keeping a lookout for such inconsiderate individual.

what happen if someone walked pass ? A whole box of pizza landing on someone’s head?

Is this the right thing to do?

who is going to clean up after you ? please be responsible , the rubbish chute is there for a reason.

GUY’S “BLUR” GIRLFRIEND FOLLOWS SENIOR INTO HIS ROOM TO “TALK”

0

My gf and I has been together for coming to 8 months and we recently have some arguments about how she hangs out with other guys.

While I love her the way she is, she is sometimes too “blur” in my opinion, but also because of that she is very happy and optimistic of other people’s intention.

As we stay in different halls, I found her going on one on one meals with her hall friend, and sometimes goes to talk with her senior in his room, and just generally being very friendly with everyone, and sometimes studying in the library and exercising together one on one.

They are different guys. I count myself as quite introverted and put very strict rules on how I interact with girls, and throughout my life I really dont see the point of building close friendships as I feel like its either you catch feelings or when they get attached you lose that friendship.

I do have female friends, but I do not hang out with them or text them much like how my gf would, and in the 8 months knowing her, I only met 2 of them one on one once, and I know them since secondary school.

I definitely know nothing is going on between them as she tells me about what she does before hand, and she was ok with me reading their text when I asked that one time.

But I was upset that she was being too comfortable and we sorta fought over it. And I just feel like being attached, you shouldn’t be hanging out with guys that often, and I keep the same standards for myself.

So I asked my friends about it, and they said it could be because she was 3 years younger than me (i retained) so she might not be as mature to understand that while i trust her, i do not trust the guys she hangs out with. 

Anyway I would like to hear advice from everyone here. Am i being too unreasonable? i know i can be quite conservative, but is asking her to tone it down too much?

Its my first serious relationship and I do not want to screw it up over this issue, and if its really a values thing, should i reconsider the whole rs altogether?

CHAN CHUN SING – WE GET SOME VERY UNKIND COMMENTS ONLINE, THEY HURT

The People’s Action Party (PAP) launched a new initiative to raise awareness and support for mental health, named #BetterTogether.

The video, directed by Royston Tan, saw appearances from Minister of Education Chan Chun Sing, Minister of State for Education and Social and Family Development Sun Xieling, and Jalan Besar MP Wan Rizal Wan Zakaria, reflecting on their experiences.

Here is what the PAP said on Facebook

Today, we launched our initiative to drive collective action for mental health in Singapore. Consulting various advocacy groups and individuals in the mental health space, Minister Chan Chun Sing, MOS Sun Xueling and MP Wan Rizal listened to and discussed the many perspectives and issues relating to the issue that affect our community.

Mental health concerns everyone, and we believe that nobody needs to deal with mental health struggles on their own.

We are proud of our partners in the community who showed that we can all do something to cast a spotlight and rally others towards this cause. They include Singaporean filmmaker Royston Tan and popular creamery Apiary .

What action will you take to join us in taking collective action?

DAD HAS BEEN STEALING HIS KIDS’ THINGS AND BLAMING IT ON MAGIC

0

I’ve been stealing my kids possessions and I don’t want to give them back
Kind of a clickbait title, but it’s the simplest way of putting it.

My kids love Harry potter, they wear their house robes (one’s Gryffindor and the other is Slytherin) damn near every day, obviously they have wands and they practice their spells

I’ve even fake told the Slytherin off for using an unforgivable curse on her sister and making her cry “we. do. NOT. USE. THE CRUCIATUS CURSE IN THIS HOUSE”

I couldn’t hold in my smile and the kid caught me laughing myself out the room

Anyway they love showing mummy their magic so I’ll sit in our bedroom across from theirs and listen to them doing their thing, and when they scoot off to go show my other half I sneak in to their bedroom and take whatever they’ve been practicing on.

I have an entire box of expelliamus’d items under my bed and I think if I give them back it’ll shatter their innocence, like they’ll no longer play make believe because it isn’t real.

When they ask “have you seen my…” i tell them “You flung it to another dimension with your magic”
