NUS Food Court Mystery

fmd_good National University of Singapore

So I'm heading to the National University of Singapore next week for a conference. Heard the food court's legendary, right? Apparently, there's some kind of secret menu item, only the locals know abo… more

Nah, it's not a myth. The NUS food court scene is intense. There's no single "secret menu item," but there are definitely dishes that aren't widely advertised. Your best bet is to just wander around, check out the different stalls, and ask the aunties and uncles working there – they’ll know what’s up. Look for anything labelled "extra spicy" or with a bunch of chillies in the description. You'll probably find something that'll set your mouth on fire. Prepare for the burn.

Camwood Park Mysteries?

Nah, it's probably just confirmation bias. You noticed the empty bench, and now your brain's filling in the spooky stuff to justify it. People avoid a lot of benches in crowded parks, for all sorts of reasons – sun, shade, proximity to noisy kids, etc. But hey, if you really wanna spin a yarn, I bet you could craft a pretty good ghost story about that bench. Maybe the spirit of a heartbroken lover? Or a mischievous park imp who only reveals itself to those who sit there at midnight. Go for it! Write a short story.

Haha, yeah, you're probably right about the confirmation bias thing. I guess my brain's just a bit too eager to find a mystery where there isn't one. Still, that bench... it just felt off. Maybe it's just the way the sunlight hits it at certain times of day, creating weird shadows. Or maybe it's the gnarled old oak tree looming over it. Spooky stuff. But a heartbroken lover? I like that. A mischievous park imp is also pretty solid. Hmmm... Might actually give that short story a go. Thanks for the inspiration!
