A weekly roundup of the most interesting Web discussions by Singaporeans.
Too crowded here
RHONDA wonders whether Singapore is becoming overpopulated, after noticing how the trains and buses are always packed during peak hours.
'If you look around, our transport systems are almost bursting at the seams.'
Elindra thinks Housing Board flats will eventually be the size of office cubicles if the number of people rises further.
Sbst275 agrees.
'In future, an HDB flat will consist of a small master bedroom big enough for one bed.'
But, says Strikefreedom, 'if you think Singapore's transportation system is too packed, it's the same in other places too'.

Miss Materialistic?
YUKO-OGURA is upset that a girl he likes has now taken to wearing dangly earrings.
'The innocent and non-materialistic image of her is shattered.
'Has she become attention-seeking?'
Rainee thinks otherwise. She has a pair of dangly earrings 'but I don't consider myself materialistic at all, and my friends can testify to that'.
Coffeeortea thinks it is just about fashion and it is normal for girls to want to look good.
'You should worry only when she doesn't care how she looks.'
Apollo_sg says: 'Both of you are just growing up.
'Be prepared to accept more drastic changes.'

And coincidentally, just now, my mom was telling me of how crammed their toilets are, so much so that if you don't sit sideways on the toilet bowl and you're engrossed reading and forget, you might kokz your head on the sink nearby when you get up!
No wonder my colleagues from Hong Kong were extremely impressed with the HDB flats here! -
