Here's an Urban Legend that I think is just a rumor... but you decide.
MYSTERIOUS WATERFALL IN SINGAPORE
They said that there is a waterfall in Singapore, located somewhere inside the woods around Lim Chu Kang. And I'm not talking about the one in Bird Park. It was one of the 'hot' rumors/urban legend back in 1998 during my NService times... Some claimed to seen it. Some say it's hoax. I say it's just an Urban Legend.
More to come...? Maybe

SIMEI: NAMED AFTER A MURDER CASE?
I've heard stories from the old-pokes of Simei that it got it's name from a case happened in the old days. If I'm not mistaken, told by them, the case was involving girls whom was murdered and their bodies was found in an underpass around Simei. Friends of mine says that this underpass was well-known to be one of THE haunted spot in Simei. I've yet to see with my two eyes towards this underpass, but one day... I will.
Just for your information 'SI' mean four in one of Chinese dialects and MEI, well I assumed it mean female/girl.
But remember, this is what I've heard, told by the old-pokes of Simei. Though, I find it hard to believe. -
