A netizen shared a photo of a bus captain and commended him for his kind and sincere bus service, taking pride in his work.
Here is what the netizen had to say:
“Good Service can’t be forced or act, it must comes from the bottom of your heart!
I am a commuter whom take Bus Captain Khairulshafiq’s (Service 187) bus frequently and notice all his small actions which would warms countless of commuters heart!
“Good Morning, welcome onboard” or “auntie/Uncle slowly ah, take your time” all this seems like is a small actions, but to a commuters, it’s warms my heart as I could feel that he really provides us with a good service from the bottom of his heart!
Besides greeting his commuters, he stop his commuters near to the kerb, so that his elderly commuters could board his bus easily!
Instead of moving off immediately, he waited for elderly/pregnant woman to find a seat before moving off, which I find it really amazing as he could be late for his schedule!
This actions, I believe it had warms countless of heart as well!
Beside providing a good service, Bus Captain Khairulshafiq also keeps his bus clean and when ever we board his bus, it extremely clean!”

A woman shared her beauty story online and it might be shocking for some.
Here is the story:
I have a beauty recipe to share. Rather sad I have to share this here because most of the people I share in person think I’m nuts.
I swear s*men is good for your skin and anti-ageing. I have been trying it for more than a year and people comment I look 20-something (actually 2 decades older) and my face is almost blemish free even without makeup.
Mind you, I did lotsa research before trying it and was lucky enough to find a willing acquaintance who’s not only vegan but single and clean. He was hesitant at first but gave in after much convincing on how much it would mean to me. Its a win-win because he usually produces every 1-2 days, which is just right for me. In case you wonder, I live alone so sadly no such luxury as a partner who can produce for me every day.
A word of caution: the s*men needs to be as fresh as possible when you apply on your face or drink it. Even in a fridge it usually lasts for 1-1.5 day before it starts to turn sour and kind of smell. I will pop by his place every other day to collect a fresh batch. Needless to say, the past months have been hard for me because of the circuit breaker!
Recipe #1 If you wanna apply it on your face, I find the effects better at night right after shower. Its usually quite fluid even when cooled so be sure to apply it on one side first lying down before switching to the other side. You don’t need a lot (guys don’t produce that much each time anyway), just a small blob each time and it will spread quite evenly. Leave it on each side for 15mins. You can spread it raw, or mix with other facial ingredients. I did this for about 3 months before I notice any effects. My blemishes started to fade and there’s a better glow to my skin. But if you are trying this for the first time, be sure to dab just a tiny bit first to make sure there’s no allergic reaction.
Recipe #2 If you prefer to drink it, personally I like it mixed in with my morning smoothies. It’s all mixed in with the milk, fruits, nuts and chia seeds, so I can’t really taste what it’s like. I guess it will depend on what he eats the day before. I’m lucky because he doesn’t smoke and only drinks once in a while, so his s*men should be pretty “pure and refined”.
If this is not your cup of tea its fine. I don’t get s*men from just any man on the street, and not everyone is lucky enough like me to find a willing guy who ticks all the boxes. I just find it a better, more organic and naturally occurring nourishment for my skin than your commercial brands out there, using chemicals and processes we cannot understand.
And best of all, its free! Even if you choose not to try it, I hope you have learnt something new!

Man trapped in car
A person was discovered stuck in the driver’s seat of a vehicle that had collided with a traffic light pole. Because of the car’s dangerous location, SCDF firemen had to stabilize it first in order to keep it from moving during the rescue. This is critical to avoid aggravating the trapped driver’s situation.
The trapped man was rescued by firemen using hydraulic rescue equipment.
The man was taken to National University Hospital with two other passengers from the same automobile.
how do I get a guy to notice me more wo appearing too desperate or weirdo? I think Ive a deep crush with this cai peng stall guy.
Boyish looking & quite well built. He’s a one-man kitchen because every morning I pass by he’s the only one cooking all the dishes, plus serving customers after that. Despite obviously it being very tough and thankless job he always keeps a smile and has a kind heart. Once I saw him adding some sausages FOC for a little girl because her mum wont buy for her. Right in front of his owner some more. Ive been buying from his stall every day.
Usually, I will wait till its his turn to serve. And his servings are also more generous hee. I pretend to linger and take my time to choose my dishes, so that I can peep at him longer and hopefully he’ll strike a conversation with me. But most of the time I fail cos I’ll start to blush and then half panic, I’ll quickly order and pay. I’m not sure whether he notice.
How to strike up a conversation with him cos he’s always busy either cooking or serving customers? Btw, I read many such main cooks at cai peng stalls are ex prisoners is that true?
They learn cooking in prison so that when come out at least can find some job?
