We’re all too familiar with that certain sian feeling – that boredom or headache-inducing moment you experience when waiting in line at a humid City Hall MRT station at 6.45PM, or running after a bus only to have it drive off just as you reach the bus stop. We’ve all been there.
Here are 10 self-explanatory photos of painfully sian instances of Singaporean life that we’ve all encountered:

These sian moments may not be going away anytime soon, but knowing that you’re not alone in going through them sure helps in making them feel less dreadful when they do happen. Sure, they are #firstworldproblems, but they’re nonetheless real occurrences that we all go through.
And after a particularly long day, even these seemingly minute encounters can bring about small stresses and lead to headaches, and sometimes even body aches.
Much like our mothers’ and grandmothers’ arsenal of trusted traditional remedies, Panadol has long been a reliable go-to for pain relief. You’ll be hard pressed to find a household in Singapore that doesn’t have some kind of Panadol medicine in their cabinet.
“You want Panadol?” is most likely the first thing you’ll hear the moment someone mentions that they have a headache. In fact, it is so common that there have even been myths related to taking paracetamol – but they’ve since been debunked!
Alas, while Panadol can’t entirely eliminate the sian feeling, it can alleviate any headaches, pain, cramps and flu that you might experience, and make life a little more bearable.
This post was brought to you by Panadol.
