  1. Wish come true: American exchange student thirsts for NS boys, now they're simping for her https://www.asiaone.com/singapore/wish-come-true-american-exchange-student-thirsts-ns-boys-now-theyre-simping-her?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=Facebook&fbclid=IwAR1VVfx_Qw2Zx2lH6INC5vkxILGO5dvf9555geTE06CfJJX2g4MFVse1id0#Echobox=1663299953 SEPTEMBER 16, 2022 PUBLISHED AT 11:31 AM By CLAUDIA TAN Sarah posted TikTok videos of herself thirsting for NS boys, and eventually ended up receiving several emails from them asking her out. TikTok/PriestessPrincess Some say that finding a girlfriend while serving National Service (NS) is a Herculean task, but it looks like some of our ah boys might have just found their princess. This 'princess' is none other than Sarah, who is more well-known by her TikTok handle, PriestessPrincess. Since arriving in Singapore in August on exchange, the 21-year-old American has managed to get several NS boys simping for her. Her secret? A series of thirst videos she's been posting, talking about how she finds them attractive. "I realised [I was attracted to NS boys] before I even arrived in Singapore, having known a few of them in the States. But it really came to life when I came to Singapore and saw men in uniform roaming the streets. I thought, 'Wow, they look so handsome and brave,'" she told AsiaOne. Following that video, Sarah, who declined to give her full name, uploaded several POV (point-of-view) videos showing different scenarios. One of these includes imagining what it'd be like to have an NS boy whisper the eight SAF Core Values into her ear, while another involves her heading to Pasir Ris Bus Interchange on a Friday evening to seek some recruits out. She's also mentioned that she could watch Ah Boys To Men "all day" — something that Jack Neo might be pleased to hear. When asked by AsiaOne about why she finds them attractive, Sarah quips: "I mean, who doesn't like men in uniform? Maybe I find them attractive because [they're] new to me. Either way, I find it attractive how they are protecting one of the greatest nations in the world." What about the uniformed men back home then? Sarah says she never really considered them as she doesn't see them as often where she lives. "Army guys [in the States] just aren't as integrated into everyday life as NS guys are in Singapore," she explained. And it seems like her wish did come true after all. On August 31, she posted a video showing screenshots of several emails that she received from NS boys wanting to meet her once they book out. "Babe, I want to see you at Expo MRT more than any other NSimp. I rather see you there than my own parents," said one of them in his email. Even men who had already completed their National Service ORD-ed tried to shoot their shot: "I'm a former National Serviceman and I was a firefighter from SCDF but I'm already Operationally Ready and I still have the uniform! Are you still okay with that?" "I have responded to a few emails. I mostly respond to DMs, and I've actually met some amazing NS guys and made great friends. I've even had my heart broken by one," said Sarah. Despite the love that she has received, Sarah has also gotten her fair share of flak from netizens who seem rather irked at her professed love for NS boys. "Not every Singaporean guy finds you attractive bro," said one netizen. Seeing these comments on her videos, Sarah shared they initially made her feel "really upset", especially since she had only recently arrived in Singapore. "It felt for a second like the entirety of Singapore hated me for something that was all in good fun." Thankfully, she found a way to cope with the negativity — simply by owning it. "I called myself the most 'mid' (mediocre), [the] most hated girl in Singapore, and I felt better. If they want to hate me...so be it." "So many people I’ve met in Singapore talk so negatively about NS boys, I found myself to be one of the only people sending them love."
  2. 19 year old Daniel is currently undergoing treatment for a rare blood cancer. He loved Subaru cars and asked Make-A-Wish to visit the Subaru factory in Japan. His wish is currently postponed due to the pandemic. Therefore, the Subaru dealers decided to organize a parade for him. There were more than 100 cars involved including Daniel favorite a 2004 WRX STI. I found this video quite touching so I decided to share
  3. Hi guys, I am taking over my FIL's Wish (2008) and extending the COE for another 10 years. This coming Dec, his COE will be expired and I am extending it on Nov. Due to the reason of his car a OPC, his mileage is about 70K Dec 08. His car is in very good condition and that the reason for me to extend the COE. What is the thing i will need to look out for? Currently i have a aircon issue whereby the aircon will not be cold when ever the engine is on idling. any help?
  4. Ok now that the process has completed, I would like to share about my latest motoring experience. I have owned a 2015 Vellfire for a year, and due to many reasons I shared previously, decided to change it to 2 small rides. As I did not want to pump in much cash, I could only look at rides of upto $80k each. Good thing the Vellfire was offloaded at very good price, I eventually only need to pump in another $10k. Now what can you get for less than $80k? One thing I was not keen to go PI route again unless bopian. So the typically options if getting new rides are small japanese rides like Jazz or Note, or Korean cars like basic Elantra and K3. Then I also looked at used cars which I have never done before to see if any cars worth it. Eventually I fixed my eyes on 2013 B200 which would cost about $65k which are latest model but pre-facelift. My confidence grew after I visited a few used car dealers as the condition of the cars were really good for any 5 year old cars. The leather are basically still wrinkle free and all the internal panels and buttons are still in very good condition, unlike the jap rides I have had which look old after just 2 to 3 years. Eventually I settled on 2015 B180 which is essentially the latest facelifted model. As the 2 rides are for my wife and myself, my wife wanted to get a Jazz initially but she was put off by the Jan/2019 delivery timeline. She was not keen on Elantra/K3 after seeing them in flesh. After awhile, my enthusiasm on B180/B200 rub off on her and she decided to get a B180 as well. Now I will share why I think B180/B200 is a viable alternative compare to typical jap/Korean fares. For about the same cash outlay, it is 7 years of former vs 10 years of later. I am willing to forsake the 3 years to have better motoring experience. It is a Mercedes after all, though a lesser one so to speak. After doing test drive of Jazz/Note and seeing K3/Elantra in flesh, I am ok to give up 3 years of ownership for the B-class ride. I love the B-class ride as it is almost perfect for what I want in a small car - compact on the outside, spacious in the inside, and full of all the hi-tech features in a very safe and powerful package. Imagine century sprint of 9.1sec, assist parking, integrated TPMS, latest safety features, etc ,etc.. And best of all, it is still the latest facelifted model. And I also did abit of research on ownership cost. I used to think servicing and parts for Mercedes is going to cost much more, but reality is not really that bad. For servicing, C&C offers servicing packages of 3 and 5 servicing. For B-class, it cost about $810 for 3 servicing, and $1400 for 5 servicing. If you factor in servicing interval of 15,000km for Mercedes, 3 servicing would be more than enough to cover 2 years of servicing. This means before any replacement parts, servicing cost for my case would come to $810, which is actually lower than what I was charged for my previous jap rides over the 2 year period with 4 servicing. No doubt I have to cater more for replacement parts which is going to cost more now. And the road tax I have to pay for my B180s also cost lesser than the Vellfire, $740 + $740 vs $1800. But I have to pay more for insurance. Even for petrol also I have to pay more but not much more as the FC for Vellfire is about 7.5km/L whereas B-class should get about 12km/L sasily, so not much difference. And then I have to navigate the used car dealers to get the used B180. This part is the most tricky and dreaded as have read many horror stories. Eventually I would say I am just lucky as both cars were transferred within a week of taking over the rides after finalizing the finance part. I know I should have done more by checking service records at C&C before confirming the deal but I chose to belief the STA reports and test drives and everything look and feel normal. And after owning both rides for a week and 3 weeks respectively, I have been happy with them so far. I would not be willing to shell out the money for them brand new, but pleased tat able to get them now at about 50% off their past purchase prices. I would think they are good deals for 3 year old cars. The motivation has been to try something new as not getting young anymore. And if it does not pan out well, can just sell them away and get something else that is safer. Whichever way I see there is no harm in beating this path. And right now both my wife and myself are enjoying the rides very much as it really offer much more than the typical jap/Korean fares. And if both rides are still in good shapes 7 years from now, just need to renew the COE for another 5 years. Hope this will inspire more to do the same. My apologies for the long story, as impossible to do it in 1 or 2 paragraphs. Hope you enjoy this sharing. Cheers.

  12. Hi guys I know that this is not the correct place to post but as a newbie, I can't ask much question in the maintenance and repair section. Just would like to ask do you guys know what is happening to my car? When i release my accelerator and when the speed drop to around 80km/h, i can feel the engine brake kick in. Any idea what is wrong here? Lack of Gear oil? One of my company rental cars use to have this problem, but not sure what the rental car workshop did to the car during servicing. So sorry about the posting done here.

  20. I know it's early, but I don't think I have the time to create a post Tomorrow as it's family time. Wish you all a Merry Christmas and happy new year.
  21. Asking for a friend. These lights turned 'ON' after his wife skidded ( but didnt lose control). Now even after resetting ecu and disconnecting battery supply. A shop said his brake accumulator is damaged and need to be changed at a cost of 4ks. Anyone had this problem before? TIA.
  22. Hi guys, Am driving a 2008 Wish NFL. It's a second hand. 5 years old this year. Mileage abt 90,000K if it has not been tampered before (haha.. we all know abt dealers lowering the numbers.. anyway...). Since I got the car 2 years back, havent change anything on the brakes till now. The car is stock stock condition. Here's my problem : - Screeching sounds coming from rear of vehicle whenever i tap the brakes. (definitely not the front brakes cos I poke my head out of the car to listen when driving. Slow speed though) - Applying light brake.... screeching comes on continuously. - Applying harder brakes.....beginning there's a slight screech, then it's gone till the car comes to a complete stop. - Applying brake when reversing... no sound (probably because it's too slow to create any noise) Anyone driving same ride and encounter this problem before? What needs to be change, the damage, any workshop to recommend, contacts? SG or JB workshop also can so long as it's economical and trust worthy. If not convenient to post here, can PM me. Any recommendations welcome! Along the way, also though of doing a general servicing plus checking of aircon... not sure it's the weather or car, it just feels not as cold when you need it. Haha.. Thanks a million in advance!
  23. First saw this funny video in STOMP but their video quality . They even mistook the gibbon as a monkey Managed to track down the clearer YouTube version: Hilarious the trickster even dared to pull the ear of the cubs not once but quite a few times Lucky for him mummy is not around [sweatdrop] TGIF bros
  24. This is what they do while issuing a ticket. so don't use excuses like: - i got put coupons but auntie never see, - auntie see my timing wrongly, - I wasn't at that particular lot at that particular time, - etc.......... so what other excuses still can be used har?
