NUScandalicious
Written by Akshay Kothari & Neha Prakash   
hooked went on a hunt for the scandalous locations in NUS and here are the top 5 scandal-rich spots (in no particular order)!

We will not disclose names or specifics of any of the stories mentioned. Since most of them are rumours and hearsay, you are entitled to believe them or not - we’re not claiming these as facts.

And of course, any intelligent person would know that these are very exceptional instances, whereby not everyone who is found in these scandalous spots is considered to be all that scandalous.

So we hope our wise readers will not take these remarks too seriously (and attempt to lynch us)!

The Unspeakables
Written by Mihir Shridhar & Varshaa Negi   
God bless all the rosy relationships between muscle-flexing Mars and shying-shimmering Venus. But before you think it's safe enough to spill all the beans you have - think again, because you might have just taken it too far, buddy. There are some things which are simply unacceptable to the opposite gender.

So before you can handle the dire repercussions after you take that plunge, it's time to wizen up and realise that there exist things that you should never ever tell the opposite sex - EVER.

PostSecret Phenomenon: Secrets on the World Wide Web
Written by Marissa Chen   
We may all be the puppeteers of our own dark deeds - but who better to enact the perils of mastering a secret than a Hitchcock blonde?

In the acclaimed filmmaker’s “The Birds”, the perfectly-coiffed protagonist Melanie Daniels relentlessly pursues a potential love interest to his remote seaside hometown under the pretext of making a pet-shop delivery.

When pressed about the reasons for her visit by intuitive natives (for really, such extremities of passion are only excusable when one is azure-eyed and buxomly), she dodges it with the practiced ease of a coquette, a gesture which typifies the statement – without even having to utter the familiar line – “It’s a secret.”

Top 3 Reelity TV Shows
Written by Archana Achamangalam   
Wikipedia defines reality television as “a genre of television programming which presents purportedly unscripted dramatic or humorous situations, documents actual events, and features ordinary people instead of professional actors.”

With that, we know that there is no way the massively edited reality shows we see on television are part of this genre. To prove our point, hooked lists three of the so-called reality programs that are obviously reel than real.

NUSecret!
Written by Daniel Azmie Suhaimi & Muhammad Al-Yazid Bin Abdul Latiff   

Do you have a secret that's scandalous enough that you swear to take it to your grave, lest you get shunned by a disgusted mob at its revelation? Something which, when brought up as fodder for juicy gossip and ridicule of someone else by others, makes your heart skip a beat, for they don't know that you happen to have that very same dirty little secret?

hooked provides NUS students a platform to let it out once and for all, without compromising their identities, of course.
