If you look into the mirror each time these days and feel like you are suffering from a bad hair day, it’s always good to take a breather and look back at some of the classic hairstyles from the 1990s. Here are 10 different hairstyles from yesteryear that have left a lasting impression in our hearts. And on our heads. 1. Bowl Cut The bowl cut is the epitome of gender equality since both boys and girls were subjected to the same childhood atrocity. Many children had it courtesy of thrifty parents and their DIY home barbershops. 2. Flat-top For some reason, everyone can remember having one friend who had this haircut. Short, neat and so very flat you can balance balance books on his head. 3. Side-Parting This is what happens when your parents comb your hair for you. The level of dorkiness is directly related to how flat your hair is combed. Some of you have combed your hair so flat you have developed your first signs of balding along that parting. 4. Center-Parting Perhaps one of the most common hairstyles to have in secondary school back then, the center-parting was considered to be cool. And we have Aaron Kwok to thank for this abomination of a hairstyle. Bonus Ah Beng points if you had one of those orange combs with the sharp ends. 5. Armani The “Armani” hairstyle was perhaps as bad as the center-parting, if not worse. To create this look, flatten the top of your hair and leave only the fringe standing. Truly awful, yet it has garnered so much popularity back then. Gaudy. 6. Faux Hawk One of David Beckham’s more iconic haircuts, many have attempted to recreate the fin, but only a handful managed to replicate a decent-looking faux hawk. What was supposed to look like the above image almost usually turns out looking like this: Faux hawk? More like faux pas. 7. “Spiked” Hair All guys are definitely familiar with this type of haircut. Even today. But back then in school, the bigger or more outrageous your spikes are, the more badass you are. The most common types of spiked hair were the shorter and neater ones though, probably an evolution of the flat-top. Once in a while, you’ll see some weak attempts at liberty spikes because they wanted to look like “that guy from Good Charlotte”. (Does anybody remember Good Charlotte?) But they usually end up looking like this instead: 8. Long Fringe/ Mullet Combo Sometimes incorrectly classified as the “Asian Emo”, this long fringe mullet combo was fairly common among guys after secondary school. Oh and butches, too. 9. The Currypok a.k.a. Pompadour Named this way because it resembles the curry puff. Retro as this hairstyle may be, it certainly puts meaning in the phrase “old is gold”. The pompadour has made a revival in the recent times, and seems to be the rage these days. Tasteful and classy, the modern pompadour is usually remixed with an undercut, upping the style factor. http://mothership.sg/2014/05/9-unforgettable-hairstyles-sporean-guys-swear-by-in-the-90s/

I think he deserves to be whacked from the way he ask for it. If u read the story, he ask to be beated 3 times. In Johor Baloo where I drive on a daily basis, I have encountered cars which cut into my lane without signaling just next to me. And I dont honk cos its their driving style. About half of the vehicles on the road either dont have vaild road tax of the driver dont have licence. So please dont expect too much from Malaysian drivers. I even encounter a 20 year old ancient little car ( like those Mr Bean size ) literally zig zag along a highway in every small little space that he can cut.. no signal at all. If u live in JB like me, you encounter many exciting episodes on the road. Just Yesterday encountered one ah lian from behind me see me too handsome, drive to my right and later cut back into my lane without signal, leaving me with 1 cm allowance. I tailed her closely to Taman Sutera Utama wanting to drag her into my car to teach her a lesson. But too bad she met up with 3 burly old men which I have no confidence of beating so I drove away looking for my next target A SINGAPOREAN man's trip to Johor Bahru turned nasty barely minutes after crossing the causeway, as he was threatened and beaten with a metal pole by a road bully. The 34-year-old, known only as Mr Fan, said the altercation on Sunday afternoon left him with bruises to his waist, arm and wrist, Chinese paper Shin Min Daily News reported. Road rage in Johor Click on thumbnail to view. Story continues after photos. (Photos: Shin Min, omy.sg) Mr Fan was travelling to JB for a shopping trip with his wife, who was three months' pregnant and his one-year-old daughter. The manager told Shin Min that the incident started some 50 metres after he has crossed Malaysian immigration, when a silver-coloured car with a Singapore licence plate suddenly cut into his lane. He honked in response. Following this, the car which overtook him braked suddenly, forcing him to jam on his brakes, and resulting in his daughter being thrown off her seat. From video footage sent in by Mr Fan, Shin Min said the little girl could be heard crying in the background, and the silver-coloured car continued driving on after the abrupt stop. Mr Fan said he then drove into an adjacent lane and signalled for the other car to pull over. But this was met with more aggression, as the other driver attempted to knock into him. Things started to get more heated when both cars stopped at a traffic junction. Mr Fan said he got out of the car with his family, wanting to get an apology from the other party. He was met with a middle-aged road bully wielding a metal pole, who started pushing and taunting him. The other party soon made a move to return to his car but Mr Fan, who felt the situation was not resolved, tapped him on the back and at this point, he was attacked. A physical fracas broke out between the two men, with the road bully's wife trying to separate the heated individuals. A passing motorcyclist later got off his bike and tried to intervene. According to Mr Fan, the road bully told the motorcyclist that he was a Malaysian getting bullied by a Singaporean. When the road bully tried to make another lunge at Mr Fan, he was pulled aside by the biker. At this point, Mr Fan said he did not want to obstruct traffic any further, and got back into his car and drove off. Mr Fan told Shin Min he lodged a report with the Malaysian police last night.

I was at AMK central yesterday and decided to drop by this Centrio Residences showroom to look see look see while waiting for my gal to finish her class. I was shocked when i was told 80+ out of the 104 units on the phase 1 launch was snapped out just over the past 5 days. The price is over 1100+ psf, 2 bedroom unit cost about 1 mil while a 3 bedroom unit cost 1.3 mil onwards. So far most buyers are local and majority are HDB upgraders. There is only a few units of 2 bedroom units left and the floor area is pathetic 80 sq meter which is about the size of 3 room HDB. Unbelievable to see ppl paying 1 mil for such a small unit and is only 99 yrs lease term. I can only say many Sporeans are rich.

They really lucky they are not beaten up by the crowd. S'pore-plate car racing in JB flips over, slams into motorcyclist July 23, 2008 RACING recklessly in the wee hours of the morning was how three drivers allegedly got their kicks. Occupants of the Toyota Vios, a man and two women, survived the crash with minor injuries. -- NANYANG SIANG PAU But on Sunday morning, their greed for speed killed one innocent motorcyclist in Johor Baru. One of the three Singapore-registered cars hit a road divider and the driver lost control of the vehicle. His car, a red Toyota Vios, flipped over and crashed into the back of a motorcyclist, killing him instantly. NEAR CHECKPOINT China Press reported that the incident took place around 2.15am, just 3km from the immigration checkpoint. The dead man, Mr Li Ming Hui, 29, a Malaysian software engineer, was on his way home from work in Singapore when the incident happened. At that time, Mr Li had been waiting for the lights to turn green before making a right turn. It was then that the car suddenly slammed into him from behind. The collision crushed the motorcyclist. The car driver and his two female passengers, all in their 20s, survived the accident. The driver had a broken arm, while one of the women sustained broken bones in her hand. Nevertheless, they managed to climb out of their vehicle after the collision. Relatives said that Mr Li usually only rode his motorcycle when he had to work extra hours over the weekend. During the week, a company vehicle picked him up from home. Mr Li's older sister, who spoke to China Press, said her brother had been working in Singapore for six years. She painted a picture of a thrifty man who had moved from Singapore to Johor Baru two years ago in order to save money. The distraught family said they hoped police would investigate Mr Li's death thoroughly. Said Mr Li's sister: 'My brother did nothing wrong. He was just waiting for the light to turn green.' A friend of Mr Li told China Press: 'Singaporeans have always raced in Malaysia, but this time a life has been lost.' A police spokesman confirmed the incident. He added that the three occupants of the car had received medical attention. No charges have been pressed yet, but police are calling for witnesses to contact them.
