    • Hello

      I am a 21 year old residing in pasir ris and currently an NSF in a camp in the east side currently looking for a job.

      I book out everyday at 5.30pm, and I am looking for a job that starts at 6.30pm or better still at 7pm and finishes at maybe 11pm?

      Working everyday will not be a problem for me, I'd prefer to look for a cooking job though.

      I am contactable through this thread.

      I hope to hear from you soon!

    • to be honest i can still see myself as a citizen of singapore, ive had a good 17 years of life here and as much as id hate to say it but id hate to leave this place.

       

      i am sorry if i have angered anybody here with my questions, but my purpose wasnt to make you envious of me whatsoever. i had a dilemma and i needed some experienced people to help me through it and i appreciate the positive and constructive input/opinions on how i should do this.

       

      from what i gather it seems that the best way is to serve my NS first before going to the NS.

       

      however what i feel is strange is that when I am serving my NS, I will be an american citizen which brings me to another thought, will I be treated unfairly? This is not to say that I am saying that the NS is bitter in anyway, it is possibly a random thought without any thought anyways.

       

      but thank you for the help guys, but I still have alot of questions and until now its been frustrating getting them answered with the ICA directing me to MINDEF and MINDEF directing me back to ICA.

       

      if anybody still has any comments i will be reading them ^^, ive appreciate them all, big or small :D

    • but ive got a red singapore passport, birth cert and i/c

       

      i dont think i have a US birth cert either

       

      i dont have a US passport since i had to surrender it

       

      but at the back of my birth cert it says that on my 21st birthday i have to give the oath of something to choose whether i want to choose singapore or US citizenship

    • thank you for understanding guys

       

      what i was told by mindef was that after enlistment, and if i switch citizenship, i will still have to serve the full NS.

       

      but then, isnt it weird that I will be serving NS as US citizen?

       

      and oh no, im not saying NS is a waste of time, its a great time to meet people ^^ and a time for good/bad memories before you join the workforce.

    • i have a situation and i need help

       

      i was born in the US, stayed there for 4 years and i came back when my grandma died. this year i will be turning 21 year so i will have to choose my citizenship, whether i want to give up my singapore citizenship or take up US citizenship.

       

      also if youd like to know i just completed my polytechnic education

       

      i am to enlist before my 21st birthday though and thus i will not be able to take up my US citizenship before i enlist.

       

      therefore im wondering that if i were to leave singapore before my 21st birthday, will i get prosecuted even if i switch to US citizenship?

       

      i appreciate any input in advance

      tyvm

      After reading this. I went 'har'!?

      Dramamama???

      I suppose her liking towards you became disappointment or hatred.
      Due to your guts/cowardice...
      It's up to you to take this time to consider your future, how much you have learnt from this incident and what is the next course of action.

      Cheers

      firstly, i wasnt being a dramamama.

      its the truth, and it might have been the way i phrased it but everything took place.

      cant say i quite like you from what you've just written. Sad

      i just want help

    • Story's like this, might sound melodramatic, but its the truth. No point lying anyhoo :/

      Bare with me, it's long.

      I had a crush over girl B when I was in sec 2. But one day I made her cry by being childish. =( Then girl C came over and talked to me. Sad

      I followed girl C after that and for the entire sec 2, I sat in front of her for every class. We grew closer after that.

      So close that someone who had a crush on her asked me to help him. I said okay, but after a couple of weeks, I found myself falling for her too. I told him that I was sorry. He called girl C to tell her that night, she didn't believe. So I set my mind to tell her the next day. And I did.

      It was during class, I said "C, I like you.". She giggled and walked back to her seat, I followed and kept pestering her why she didnt believe me. She just went to sleep -.-

      But. I don't know...

      There was this once, she was using her pencil and pen to draw cane marks on herself. And she did into onto me too, it was painful, and looking at her scars I told her not to hurt herself anymore, she asked me why I care so much about her. I just walked away, it kills me everyday that I didnt say that its because I love her.

      During seconday sch, I always fought, then there was this once, I was angry with her because she wasn't talking to me so I went to the back to seat. She kept looking back, and I just walked away. She came to my pencil box and slipped a letter into it. She was saying sorry, it was 2 pages, and she asked me to go back to sit with her. Which I did.

      There was this once, I told her that I didn't like someone in class, and she asked me "What about me? What about me?" and I just said, "I don't quite like you too, your attitude"

      The next thing I knew, she went to her friend and cried in class. I don't know if it was me, but I went to her and said I was sorry. She kept saying it isn't me. I gave her the only chocolate I had and said sorry. Sad

      Everytime her bf came to her to talk, she'd go to sleep. But she'd always talk to me (cept when shes having her headaches).

      -------

      Towards the end of the year, the booted-captain of netball came to me and asked me about C's results, since she got promoted to captain and got into the top class. Turned out C's results were poorer than hers, and yet she got into the top class.

      Anyhoo, thats besides the point, whilst I was calling her and her friends to find out about her results. Her friends (netballers) kept asking me who wanted to know. I told them. They never liked the booted-captain alot.

      The next day, the disciplinary master cum netball coach called me over and scolded me and said I was just being used by the booted-captain, and he asked me to keep away from his netball girls, citing that I'm not a good influence. Sad

      I stormed back to class, it was the last day of sec 2. She came over and asked for my signature behind the class photo, I flipped the table in front and shouted at her to @#@($)( off and stormed out.

      I was fuming, thinking that it might be her who had sabo-ed me.

      Thing is, I dont think it was ever her. My anger clouded my judgement.

      We proceded into sec 3 in different classes, I dropped into the last class, whilst she went into the top.

      One day I had remedial in her class, so I rushed up just hoping that I'd have a glance of her. And I did! After I put my bag inside the class, I walked out, and there she was! Just outside the corridor, she said my name, and I swore she looked like she was going to cry any moment. But I just ran Sad I don't know why, but I did.

      We never spoke ever since then till sec 4 when it was her birthday, I bought her a lava lamp (god knows why). I didn't even say happy birthday, yet she came over to say thank you.

      She left for australia when I was sec 5, after she graduated.

      She comes back every year. And when she did this year, I called her during christmas to wish her a happy birthday, but it felt weird. I know it'd take time. I kept asking her out almost every month (she was here for 4 months). But everytime she said she was busy

      But the week before she left, she messaged me saying that if I could organize something, then she'd meet. (Is she afraid of being with me alone?) Nobody could make it, it was the exams week.

      The week after, I messaged her what time her flight was. And she said it isn't confirmed, and she asked why?

      I told her I wanted to send her off.

      But I guess she didn't want me there because she didn't reply for 2 days. So I decided not to make it difficult for her, I sms-ed her a lie that I wouldn't be able to make it since i'd be busy, asked her to take good care of herself there.

      Its been 7 years since I fell for her. I still love her alot and I regret my every move that I've made. I know I'm terrible at this. I just wished I could make everything right.

      Problem is, her friends aren't exactly my friends, and my friends aren't her friends either. We don't have the same clique. I know shes the one, if she wasn't, I wouldn't have waited.

      I just want to hold her and tell her I've always loved her.

      Each time I told her I love her after the first time, it was stupid, I was doing it over msn or through wordpad. I wrote letters. Bared my soul out, and each time, I told her that I'm not good enough. And the last time I told her, I asked her if she'd invite me to her wedding.
      Each time, she'd say ok. And thats it.

      I love her. I really do.

      Somebody help, and thank you for your patience, you have no idea how much this means to me.

    • hey

      I have AROUND 2500 to spend on a bike (this includes insurance and other stuff that may be required).

      Around 2500 means i may be willing to pay slightly more than for a bike.

      I have a couple of questions:

      1) Any bike suggestions? I'm looking into maybe acquiring a SP or a kawazaki. 2B. *LOOKING FOR A SPORTS BIKE

      2) I am willing to pay the lump sum up front when I purchase the bike, is that advisable? Or should I pay a deposit first. I don't plan on holding on the bike for more than 2 years.

      3) Should I buy the bike from a shop, or from someone? I've been told it will be wiser to purchase it from a shop.

      4) How much is a paintjob? Very Happy

      thank you!
      your answers are much valued
