Face Your Fears This Friday The 13th At Science Centre’s New Exhibition
Does the thought of drowning scare you?
What about being buried alive?
Face your fears at this brand new exhibition that explores the science behind fear.
Rationalise and conquer your fears at Phobia²: The Science of Fear from 13th April onwards.
Clowns, Coffins And Claustrophobia
Guests will embark on a journey about common fears and phobias as well as self-discovery. So if you’re planning on overcoming your fears, we suggest you bring a friend with you.
[caption id="attachment_33963" align="aligncenter" width="280"] GIF Credit: giphy.com[/caption]This exhibition is designed to stimulate guests with a low-level anxiety experience so you don’t have to worry about any clowns jumping on you or being trapped in a tiny box.
We went through it and survived to tell the tale. We promise you, it’s 100% safe.
Designed by Newman Entertainment International (NEI), the exhibition features all sorts of interactive galleries for guests to gain a better understanding about fear.
Here are the galleries we highly recommend!
Buried Alive
[caption id="attachment_33952" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] Buried Alive Gallery[/caption]Have you ever had a dream where you’re being buried alive and you scream but no one ever hears you?
Taphophobia is the fear of being buried alive. So if you ever want to know how it feels like to be buried alive, all you have to do is slide under the coffin and see it for yourself.
We got to try it out ourselves, safe to say, we don’t ever want to face that situation ever again.
Sideshow Carnival
We all hate clowns. Nobody likes clowns.
Needless to say, this clown gallery scared the living daylights out of us.
[caption id="attachment_33959" align="aligncenter" width="480"] Sideshow Carnival Gallery[/caption]You can expect to enter a space which is decorated like a side-show carnival. This room contains various sculptures, a life sized comical clown and interactive displays.
This was hands down the freakiest gallery in the entire exhibition.
We could barely last more than 5 minutes in this room.
Claustrophobia
[caption id="attachment_33960" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] Claustrophobia Gallery[/caption]Claustrophobia is the fear of enclosed spaces and boy oh boy, this particular one felt like there was no way out.
As you walk into this tunnel, it becomes smaller so you are required to stoop down and squeeze out into a small winding tunnel to exit.
The exit was so small that we had to get down on our hands and legs just to be able to get out.
Do remember that you can bypass this experience by taking a ‘Chicken Out’ door.
The Stage Is Yours
[caption id="attachment_33961" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] The Stage Is Yours Gallery[/caption]Have you ever given a speech in school or work that made your palms sweaty and your knees go weak?
Speaking in front of a crowd may come naturally for some but a nightmare for others.
The exhibit offers guests the opportunity to stand in front of a projection dome. You are to read out loud from a teleprompter to a projected audience who will then react in real-time to the comments made in the speech.
We couldn’t help but feel slightly insecure when the crowd started laughing mid-speech but don’t worry, they’ll give you a standing ovation at the end.
Give this one a try if you haven’t tried speaking in front of a crowd.
Sitting For An Exam
[caption id="attachment_33962" align="aligncenter" width="1024"] Sitting For An Exam Gallery[/caption]Studying for an exam is pretty nerve wrecking, especially when your final grades depend on it.
Enter a room with study desks that contain TV panels built within the desk tops.
Through the TV panels, students will share their experiences on exam fears and provide tips on how to overcome them.
If you know someone who fears sitting for an exam, bring them here to learn tips and tricks on how to overcome their fears.
Phobia²: The Science of Fear is the perfect opportunity for you to conquer your fears. With over 14 galleries for you to choose from, this exhibition is truly educational and highly interactive.
Who knows, you might eventually face your fears this Friday the 13th.
Grab your friends, gather some courage and head on down to Science Centre for this exciting exhibition!
Phobia²: The Science of Fear
Price: Admission to the exhibition is free. Standard admission charges to the Science Centre applies.

Lok No Further, Here Are The Best Lok Lok Spots In Singapore So You Don’t Have To Travel To JB
I’ll always remember the first time I ate Lok Lok out of a converted van in JB. Although it was a tad unhygienic, it was a truly fun and unique dining experience.
Lok Lok is a dish consisting of various deep-fried foods such as meats and vegetables that are served on a skewer and traditionally dipped into thick satay sauce.
Lok Lok is EXTREMELY underrated in Singapore. If you haven’t tried it, honestly why?
So here it is. Here’s a list of Lok Lok spots you can enjoy in Singapore so you don’t have to travel all the way to JB.

2. Chuan Le Xiang Lok Lok
This next one is a little bit out of the way but definitely worth the trip.
This old school Lok Lok dining experience is a passed-down 25-year Singapore family-kept recipe extracted from Satay Bee Hoon.
There’re three soup bases for you to choose from (chicken/mala/satay) but we highly recommend the satay base. Each base pot will cost you $8.
Best part, each stick goes as low as $1 so you know you’ll be leaving this place with a food coma.

4. JQ Pot
Tucked away in Pasir Panjang Food Centre is a shop that sells Lok Lok with a twist. Instead of dipping your skewered ingredients in peanut sauce, you get a pot of gooey melted cheese.
The cheese used is a mixture of nacho cheese and mozzarella. In case you’re someone who downs cheese like water, they provide refills for free. So you can eat all the cheese that you want.
Their Cheesy BBQ Lok Lok ($38) comes in a set which includes 18 sticks of food of your choice. You can also order additional skewered ingredients if you’re still hungry!

There is a minimum order of 7 sticks, and ranges from $1.20 – $3.00 per stick. You can expect plenty of vegetable skewers and even udon wrapped in pork belly!
[caption id="attachment_33932" align="aligncenter" width="819"] Image Credit: Wang BBQ Lok Lok Facebook[/caption]Located in Chomp Chomp Food Centre, you can expect a 45 minute wait as the process to prepare these skewers involves coating the chosen skewers in their special homemade sauce and either grilling these skewers over a charcoal grill, or deep frying them.
However it’s truly worth the wait, so sit around, enjoy a drink or two while Wang BBQ & Grill prepares their special Lok Lok for you.

This Japanese-Inspired French Patisserie Serves Cakes That Are Too Pretty To Eat
If there’s one thing that I can eat for the rest of my life, it would be a good slice of cake.
Now I love cakes as much as, if not more than, the next person. I look forward to my birthday every year because I know I’ll get to indulge in a rich Belgium dark chocolate cake, finished with a silky chocolate glaze.
[caption id="attachment_33875" align="aligncenter" width="450"] GIF Credit: giphy.com[/caption]I thought no other cakes could ever win my heart. Until, I came across a beautiful, magnificent piece of cake.
After a bit more research, it led me to this really quaint and simple patisserie. Flor Patisserie, you’ve won my heart this time round.
Fantastic Cakes And Where To Eat Them
Flor Patisserie is a Japanese-styled patisserie that serves authentic Japanese inspired French pastry.
They pride in using the freshest and best quality ingredients that have been sourced from overseas (Japan, Belgium, and France), and locally.
The chef at Flor Patisserie, Heidi, aims to create pastries based on the principle of honest baking with the finest ingredients.
Needless to say, their creations are truly a work of art.
Now that Cherry Blossom season is in full swing, Flor Patisserie is serving up sakura themed pastries and you for sure don’t want to miss any of it.
First up, we have the Sakura Tofu Chiffon which is made with salt-pickled Sakura blossoms.
[caption id="attachment_33884" align="aligncenter" width="814"] Image Credit: @flor_patiserrie[/caption]The Sakura Pie is a puff pastry filled with almond cream, and topped with Sakura chantilly and strawberries. This pie is only available at their Takashimaya outlet.
[caption id="attachment_33879" align="aligncenter" width="1080"] Image Credit: @flor_patisserie[/caption]They also sell mini versions of the Sakura Pie which will be available in all outlets. This pie is made out of Sakura cream, pickled Sakura flower, and a creme d’amandes pie base.
[caption id="attachment_33880" align="aligncenter" width="930"] Image Credit: @flor_patiserrie[/caption]You can also gift your friends these cute Sakura Honey Cakes which is part of their Sakura Gift Range. These cakes are available in a box of 10.
Honestly, I’ll just buy an entire box and gift it to myself instead.
[caption id="attachment_33882" align="aligncenter" width="960"] Image Credit: @flor_patisserie[/caption]This final pastry definitely wins my heart.
The White Strawberry Tart is made with Awayuki strawberry of the Sage prefecture in Japan. The Awayuki strawberries were hand carried back from Tsukiji Market in Japan so you know you’re getting the best stuff.
The sweet strawberry is paired with a fragrant creme d’amandes tart, filled with custard and topped with chantilly.
[caption id="attachment_33883" align="aligncenter" width="1080"] Image Credit: @flor_patisserie[/caption]As this is a seasonal item on the menu, Flor Patisserie only makes a limited amount of these pretty tarts! It’s best to call the outlet and reserve the tarts in advance.

Find, Reserve, And Go To Your Favourite Restaurant With Just Google Maps
Making reservations at restaurants is one of the things you learn to do as you grow into an adult but nobody enjoys long interactions with strangers.
Because we’re all awkward turtles, we’ve got some good news to share.
Today, Google announced that they’ve partnered with Chope, HungryGoWhere, and Quandoo to launch the new “Reserve with Google” feature.
That’s right, Singaporean users are now able to make reservations at their favourite restaurants directly on Google Maps and Search.
[caption id="attachment_33872" align="aligncenter" width="609"] Image Credit: Google[/caption]Because making a reservation has always been a bit of a hassle, Google is making that process more seamless.
Now you can just Google search for a restaurant, view its real-time availability, and make a reservation immediately by clicking on the “Find a table” button.
How To Make A Restaurant Reservation With Google
- Open Google Maps and search for a restaurant or tap on a restaurant you see on the map.
- Tap on the name of the restaurant for more information. If the restaurant uses OpenTable, you should see a “Find a table” button along with the available time slots.
- If you’re looking for a time slot that’s not listed, you can update the number of people you’re reserving for, and the specific time slot.
- You should be redirected to a confirmation page for your reservation once everything is done.
- A confirmation email from OpenTable will be sent to you shortly after confirmation.
Changing or cancelling reservations are also easy. Go to the confirmation email sent to you by OpenTable and just tap on Change or Cancel.
Also, if your Gmail is registered with OpenTable, you’ll get Dining Rewards points for your reservation.
Say goodbye to multiple redirections to different websites and frustratingly long waiting times for reservation calls!
