If you study in NTU, you will relate so damn well to everything here. From the buses to the famous hellishly long staircases, everything would just be #truestory. Have you heard of the infamous python vs cobra fight? Yep, that happened right here in our campus. Even if you don’t study in NTU, well, you could at least sympathise with us right?
That long stretch from SS to NS.
The walk from the South Spine to North Spine is just so damn arduous and long. How many times have we thought that we need a travellator?
The highest floor on the lift is Level 1.
Only people from NTU would understand this. In many of the lifts, the lift buttons start from B5 and end at Level 1. It confuses the hell out of freshies and visitors to NTU.
That 3 stories high staircase in SS.
We probably have the healthiest students in all the universities, after years of climbing that dreaded staircase. Some students might just decide to take the lift, but it turns out that many other people had the same idea. Cue a 10mins wait for a lift to finally be vacant enough for you to board.
NTU = the next Singapore Zoo.
We have many cats in the halls and monkeys in the surrounding greenery. A pangolin was even spotted before. Let’s also not mention the time where an infamous fight took place between a python and a cobra.
The queue for campus rider at Pioneer in the morning.
The longest I have seen it stretch was all the way from the bus stop to up the stairs to the second level of the MRT station. That’s after the queue has looped once from the taxi stand. No kidding.
“NTU students always go to JB for day trips right?”
Many people from other universities always seem to think this. #truestory. We are in Pioneer, not in Woodlands! Just because our location is more ulu, doesn’t mean that we are almost part of Malaysia. Yes, we know there’s a Second Link but there’s really nothing there except for Giant and Aeon, right?
Long hours.
This is especially so in NBS, where 4 hours seminars are much more common. You probably won’t make it through even half the seminar with your attention span intact. Some NTU lectures are also 3 hours long.
Suicides and horror stories.
Unfortunately, suicides in NTU are much more highly-publicised than those of other universities. It is probably due to our more ulu location and therefore, they make better material better horror stories.
It’s faster to walk than to rely on the Campus Loops.
Most of the time, the buses are already full by the time they reach or even stuck somewhere on Pulau NTU. But the lazy ones (like us) still prefer to wait for the bus anyway.
Getting lost even after 4 years in school.
NTU has the reputation of having Singapore’s largest campus. At 200 hectares, the area is equivalent to 240 football fields. Don’t worry if you still can’t find your way around – me too.
Over in TikTok, there’s a drama involving property agents that’s caused by us. Here’s what happened:
