coffee with milo from a small home café called "kommunitea" opposite seletar mall, fernvale road, singapore
rate: 4.8/5⭐️!
0.2 lower because they only can accomodate 2pax!
it's more for local people/neighbours who stay in the northeast side of singapore...
but if you're here to venture the more local food scene in singapore, come to the residential areas..

was at the hospital visiting a friend. Had already swapped my work top for an exercise tee because I was heading straight to play pickleball after.
Did not even make it to the exit. This auntie clocked me from across the corridor and beelined. Started describing her symptoms in full detail before I could react. I just stood there like 🧍🧍♀️🐥
Waited for her to breathe and told her I genuinely do not work here, I'm just a visitor. She looked me up and down, stared at the pants, then went "oh… but the pants though."
THE PANTS THOUGH.
Auntie.. I am going to the pickleball courts... not the ICU. 🥺😪 The blue pants are not a uniform, they are just exercise pants that are blue.
Directed her to the actual nurses' station and got out of there. hope she found help. :)
so this happened last week and i'm still thinking about it since i still have a bruise on my forehead...
i was at a public pickleball court, minding my business, waiting for my turn. there was a heated game going on at the next court.... you could tell tensions were running high, lots of loud grunting, aggressive shots. also worth noting: they were recording themselves the entire time. phone propped up, full social media content creation mode.
at some point the player got frustrated after a bad rally, swung hard, and the paddle slipped out of their hand and flew straight into my face.
i now have a blueblack the size of a small country on my forehead. thank goodness for hair bangs.
here's the thing. the person walked over, picked up their paddle, and left. no "are you okay." no "i'm so sorry." nothing. just grabbed their paddle and went back to their game like i was a minor inconvenience.
the camera was still rolling by the way.
i was too stunned to say anything in the moment. my friend said i should have confronted them but honestly i was just trying not to cry from the pain. i later found out they weren't local, so maybe it's a cultural thing? i genuinely don't know.
but i keep thinking... if you're recording yourself for content and your paddle flies into someone's face, is "sorry" really too much to ask? or am i part of their content now?
AITA for still being annoyed about this?
once, i missed my last bus home and sat at the bus stop not knowing what to do. an auntie sat down next to me, didn't say anything for a while, then just offered me half her curry puff, a puff snack found in malaysia/singapore. (she is not a ghost, ok?? in fact i think she's an angel.)
she didn't ask if i was okay. she just fed me. but in the end i took a taxi back home. :)
hey reddit! where can i find pickleball community in singapore? kinda bored only playing weekly with my friends. i wanna try playing with people with higher DUPR or similar as mine. thank you in advance! :D
