It is that time of the year again for Singapore's infamous flooding

A video of a flooded stretch of road made its way around social media this morning (13 June). 

In the short clip, vehicles are seen moving at a very slow pace due to the high water level and the inability to see lane markings on the road.   

The flood location is identified to be on the main road towards Punggol Road and TPE (PIE).

This is how the 3-lane road looks like during normal conditions.  

After yesterday’s heavy rain (12 July), PUB issued a risk of flash floods occurring in several areas in Singapore.

With thundery showers expected till mid-July, be prepared for any sightings of a flood.

Full of sarcastic humour.

IMO, this is one of those rare moments for SUVs to demonstrate their capability in Singapore.

The optimism that we all wish to have. 😎

Not gonna lie, this person is asking the REAL QUESTION here. 

If you ever encounter a flood, here are some advice to note:

  1. Drive slowly and defensively.
  2. Do not speed or accelerate suddenly.
  3. Pump your brakes and monitor your engine performance after driving through the flood.

  • Japan: The trend that became a turn-off

    Ahh Japan. The destination that many travellers desire. The perennial trending subject on social media. Japanese cuisine, culture, quirks, technology, and everything kawaii have inspired endless posts, stories, reels, YouTube videos, and TikToks. If one didn't know better, you'd think it was the dream destination on this planet. While I love the food, the service and the shopping, the sheer number of tourists (me included) has become a turn-off. I'm not talking about those who inconven

    Journey to the West: First Steps in Southwestern China, Pt. 2

    Note: Click here to read Pt. 1, where the journey began in Hong Kong. NEXT UP: CHONGQING Day 3, cont.: Dad had decided on the scenic route to Chongqing - train. We did not realise that the immigration process at the Hong Kong Kowloon West station involved both the Hong Kong and Chinese authorities, so we found ourselves in a rush to board the train (we boarded minutes before the scheduled departure). Through the eight-hour journey, the passing sights made me realise the diversity

    Less caffeine leads to more dreams

    There's nothing like a double espresso to kickstart your morning, especially if it's extracted from medium- or dark-roasted beans. What a tasty way to begin the day. I enjoy coffee, but I'm not a caffeine addict so it's not a must for me to consume. In fact, lately, I've only been drinking it once or twice a week - doing this ensures that when I do drink it (to power my way through a hectic day), the caffeine kick will be well and truly felt. I did not stop drinking coffee thrice a day

    Why oolong tea could be the superior drink of choice at lunch

    Coffee - without sugar! - has long been (and still is) my go-to option to accompany my lunch. Amidst a larger 2025 goal of reducing the number of cups of kopi-o kosong I gulp down a week, however, I’ve recently thought about how my lunch experience can be switched up slightly with yet another sugarless drink: A can, or indeed bottle of oolong tea. Oolong tea is said to offer a perfect balance of flavour and functionality - perfect not just for complementing one's meal but also reinvigo
