Feelin' Good About School, Much?
Written by Julia Lua   
You know how some people say that Singaporeans have nothing more than complaints for everything under the sun? Sadly, that seems to be true. Price hikes for cabs? That's an outrage! Write in to the papers! Rising school fees? That’s preposterous! Let’s have a forum discussion!

Well, here at HOOKED, we say enough of the nay-saying and the complaints. We snooped around to find out what makes some of you feel good about NUS. We’ve got to start looking at the glass half-full, and start appreciating what we’ve got! Don’t get us wrong. We’re not trying to be preachy here. Tis’ the season of giving and HOOKED's giving everyone in NUS some hope you can definitely use.

Food For Comfort
Written by Charmaine Tay   
Food has always been one of the greatest pleasures in life, and as a fellow food lover, I can't help but turn to certain food when I'm feeling down. Comfort foods are those that are simply prepared and associated with a sense of home or contentment. Been dumped by your girlfriend? Failed your driving exam? These foods will make you feel better...at least for now.

Kingone - Love, Kingone
Written by Lee Meixian   
Perhaps if there should be one difference between Wang Chuan Yi (also known as Kingone) and the average Taiwanese idol pop singer, it ought to be the maturity of his voice and image.

With his suave, clean-cut good looks and steady, grown-up voice, this 27-year-old actor-turned-singer exudes a quiet coolness and thoughtful virility in his latest EP - Love, Kingone.

Ado - Ado Release
Written by Janice Tai   
"Ado Release" is the latest album released by Ado (or A-Du), our local Chinese singer. He was formerly a foreman, but has since taken huge strides in the music industry.

Characteristically known for his hoarse and husky voice, he unleashes his manly side in the visuals of this album. Too much testosterone and hair for me, but the latest look he adopts is bound to catch the fancy of some fans.

Fight Club: Re-introduction
Written by Yeo Zhi Qi   

We seem to have been thrust into our own nightmarish version of a Fight Club:

  • The opponent - the much-reviled CAP score
  • The training regime - readings, essays, essays, readings...
  • The nutritional supplement to raise our strength - caffeine

In the spirit of our personal fight for strength to pull us through this arduous period, we at Hooked re-introduce an old favorite - Fight Club.

How To Survive In The Wild?
Written by Teo Shu May   
Imagine this scenario: You have planned the most exciting camping date with your Significant Other(s), and so far, everything has been going well. The weather is cool, the sky is clear, the birds are chirping, and you are all set for a leisurely traipse through the leafy forests of Pulau Ubin.

But then, disaster strikes. Your stomach rumbles, and as you rummage through your backpack, you realise that there is...nothing there.

Now, we're sure that most of us are probably much smarter than that. However, just in case some people are absolutely clueless when it comes to packing food for a camping trip ("you mean, I can't eat leaves off a bush?!"), HOOKED has come to your rescue by listing five important recipes, suited just for your taste-buds.
