Life is hard these days, we know but there are always things that you can do to make it easier and more comfortable.
Check out some amazing life hacks that we compiled for you to use. Most of the lists are very useful for daily life, some are a little ridiculous, and most of them are simply brilliant!
Ironing
Ever found it hard to iron the buttoned parts? Just flip the shirt inside out to iron over the button side. As the old man in the Visa paywave advertisement likes to say, “so simple!”
Taking a picture
Trying to take a perfect picture to put on your resume is hard. So, all you have to do to make yourself good is to squint your eyes while smiling. This will make your smile look much more real and you have a higher chance of getting that job.
Charger
Charging wires are prone to bending and breaking. To prevent this from happening, use a spring from your old pen and put it around the wire to keep it straight.
Drinks
Hate putting ice in your drinks? Just wrap a wet paper towel around your drink and place it in the refrigerator. In about 15 minutes, you will have an ice-cold beverage in your hands.
Keys
Ladies, here’s another use for your nail polish. Men, it’s time to agree that nail polish is fantastic. If you always have problems identifying your keys, use different nail polish colors to paint your keys.
Nutella
A yummy idea for all Nutella lovers! If you have almost finished your jar of Nutella, put ice cream in the jar to mix all the leftover Nutella and enjoy a great dessert.
Tangled cords
Sick of getting all your wires tangled? Use empty toilet paper rolls to store all your different cords and place them in a shoebox.
Coffee ice cubes
Diluted coffee tastes terrible. To prevent your coffee from getting diluted by ice, pour some coffee into ice cube trays to make frozen coffee cubes. You can then drop it into your cup of coffee without worrying about diluting its taste.
Zippers
Stuck zippers are a real pain. Instead of using force, all you need to do is to rub the stuck zipper teeth with a graphite pencil. It’ll do the trick!
Can drink straw holder
All of us would have experience straws rising up when put in a can drink and so, we end up holding onto the straw. Now you don’t have to do that. Just put your straw through the tab and the straw will stay.
Charging points
If you are at a hotel with your family or friends, it is likely that everyone will be fighting for the charging points. If you do run out of charging points, it is helpful to know that the TV usually has a USB plugin.
Heating food
Isn’t it annoying when your microwave sounds like world war II but your food still comes out cold? To get rid of this problem, create a space in the middle before heating it. This will help to heat up the food more evenly.
Water
Singapore is so hot and almost any drink becomes warm when you step outside. Next time, fill your bottle with ¾ water and place it in the freezer horizontally. Then, once it is frozen, you can fill up the remaining with water and have ice-cold water even after you have left your house.
Bananas
Bananas overripe fairly quickly and it is sometimes unfortunate that you have to throw them away because you cannot finish them. To make the bananas last longer, wrap a plastic around the stems to make them stay fresh for at least a week. If you need to eat the banana, cut it off from the stem.
Keeping your phone from falling
Tired of trying to put your phone on something so that you watch your movies but it keeps falling down? A great solution will be to place them on the back of your folded sunglasses. This is also a great option for taking a selfie without having to stretch out your arms.
Throwing drinks into the bin
Disposing of drinks into bins can sometimes lead to problems when the drink leaks out and soaks the plastic bag. To prevent this from happening, place a newspaper at the bottom of the bin to soak up the liquid.

Batteries
Dismantling everything and putting a battery inside just to find out that the battery is not working can be really annoying. Next time, bounce batteries from a distance of 15 cm onto your table. If they give one small bounce and fall right over, they are working. If they bounce more times than that, it is likely that they are going to die soon.
Makeshift iPhone speaker
Want to blast music but do not have a speaker? All you need is an empty toilet roll and two thumbtacks. Cut a hole in the middle of the roll, just enough to fit the bottom of your phone. Insert the thumbtacks at the bottom two corners of the toilet roll to allow the roll to stay. Play your music and you have your own speaker.
BBQ
It’s a pain to try and find the different plates of sauces when you are having a barbecue. Using a muffin tray to hold all the sauces and condiments will save you all that trouble. Plus, you can just throw it away afterward and not have to wash anything.
Spam emails
If you have to use your email to sign up for something but you do not want to receive anything from them, all you have to do is add “+spam” to the end of your email username. For example [email protected]. This will send all emails from them to your spam folder and still treat it like a real email address. Awesome huh?
Keeping wrapping paper rolled
If you find that your wrapping paper does not stay rolled, instead of using a rubber band that will damage the paper, use a cut-open empty toilet roll to cuff the wrapping paper.
And there you have it, life hacks to make your life more awesome. These little tips, tricks, and tweaks can save you buckets of time and hassle – it would be mad NOT to use them!
