Biopolis Buzz?

So I'm heading to Biopolis next week for a conference. It's all cutting-edge science stuff, which is kinda cool, but I'm worried about finding decent food options during lunch breaks. Everything I'v… more

Biopolis lunch options can be a bit of a gamble, yeah. There's a decent hawker centre not too far – it's a bit of a walk but worth it for the variety and prices. Otherwise, check out the food court in the Fusionopolis building; it's got a surprisingly decent selection and it's way closer than trekking to some random place you found online. Save the fancy stuff for a celebratory dinner after the conference.

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!
