If the thumb print scanning mean I was flagged, will it be a problem with the immigration at other countries ? What does it mean to be flagged anyways? Does it mean every time an immigration scan my passport they will see this "flag"?

Thumb print screening is so that you can't just get a new passport and a clean record. If you raise suspicions again you'll come up.
As others said, always keep proof of hotel and return ticket with you when entering. Don't write down a hotel you didn't book yet, as technically you've now lied on your immigration forms. Even if you could prove everything else, that alone could have gotten you rejected from entering.

They don't approve of you "living" in Singapore, but they also don't mind you spending your money here. That's the problem. Your age & gender and nationality are all key indicators of a lot of young girls who come here for other reasons. As you yourself mentioned, while you have a student card, you are also taking a break after blowing your thesis. So, in theory, you could be coming here on 'working' holidays, if you know what I mean. I'm not implying anything, but it is just one way the ICA may very well look at it.
The thing that is in your favour is the fact that you don't max out your visa every trip. If you were here for nefarious reasons, you would stay here as long as you can to max your earning potential.
sounds like the profile of a working girl alright
