Advantages and disadvantages of living in Potong Pasir

Potong Pasir, the home of Saint Andrew's Village and the residents. Potong Pasir is the heart of the students at Saint Andrew's. The area has almost everything both to eat and play. It plays an important role in our lives as we travel there about five times a week.

Some advantage of living in Potong Pasir is that they have cheap food and drinks being sold. One specific example I would recommend is the small restaurant called Shi Mei Restaurant, selling good and cheap food for the students there. They also have McDonalds and KFC there too. Those who love fast food could walk to the stalls and grab some fast food when they also have extra lessons in school. There are also two different mini hawker centres there. They have two 7-Elevens and a couple stalls selling bubble tea and drinks. Above all, I would recommend trying the barbeque wings at the hawker centre nearer to the MRT.

Some disadvantages of living in Potong Pasir is the nuisance and way of life the students have there. Not many other school students had been seen at Potong Pasir recently due to the rudeness and unpoliteness of the boys in Saint Andrews. One thing I would recommend that Potong Pasir should have is one or two shopping malls. Even though there are other shopping malls nearby like NEX at Serangoon and another at Dhoby Ghaut. I would also recommend a park there as there is not much greens in Potong Pasir, and to make the area look vibrant.
