What happened was that the plastic arm cracked. The metal inside is still undamaged so they are usable still. But I'm just worried they will break soon. I had new lenses put in them this year so I'd prefer not to get new ones. In addition my head is pretty wide so it is a huge hassle to find a pair ...

Does anyone have any idea of where I can go to get my eye glasses repaired? One of the arms broke so I figure I need to replace both of them. But the 5-6 stores I went to all said that they do not do repairs of this nature. They are a pair of Face a Face glasses from a few years ago. I just put new ...

So how was it? Any follow up report?

Going to a museum sounds fun. Since I haven't been to any yet, I'd be up for checking them out. Are they accessible by MRT?

I wish I could but I'll be moving into my apartment then. It's great to see someone step up and plan an event.

I just arrived in Singapore this week. Would love to meet up with people. With the long weekend, it could be a good time to meet. Please send me an email at aabbccbb - at - yahoo.com if you'd like to hang out. I'll keep checking the board as well.

Does anyone have any recommendations for an oral surgeon? I saw my dentist in the US and he recommended me to see an oral surgeon to have a sore in my mouth removed for testing. I'd prefer to have it done in Singapore. Since I'm new to Singapore, I'd appreciate any advice you can give. Thanks.

I read somewhere that they have been becoming more strict about converting licenses. So I'm not sure if it is a gradual thing or if there was a specific changeover date. While I understand why the government has this restriction, I think that if you can pass the 2A or 2 test, why should you have to ...

I'm going to be coming to Singapore in July, and due to the cost of owning a car and relative convenience of public transportation, I'm thinking of getting a motorcycle. I've had a US motorcycle license for 3 years now and want to convert it into a Singapore license. And since I'm 6'4" and 130 kg, I...
