you know like like companies need like like like data analysis in terms of their like, consumer base right, so I think that kind of jobs I can do lah


this not important one my teacher say my teacher say is all about getting into the right mindset for uni like


for example engineering course ah <mandarin>他要你知道真么:ta yao ni zhi dao zhen me</mandarin> critical thinking to solve problem, it's like learning a technique more than the the, textbook knowledge


!wah! Siao Liao IT ah catching up with the times


so now you still play league of legends or not,


!wah! eh <mandarin>那个的地方:na ge de di fang</mandarin> ah


oh my mom said the same thing you know my mom actually think ah I outside <mandarin>跟别人去去去厕所那里抽烟:gen bie ren qu qu qu ce suo na li chou yan</mandarin> ah <mandarin>好像那种:hao xiang na zhong</mandarin> like TV drama


!wah! j


哎呀


then <mandarin>那些开车的:nei xie kai che de</mandarin> ah lucky lor <mandarin>他直接:ta zhi jie</mandarin> get license <mandarin>出去就可以买车:chu qu jiu ke yi mai che</mandarin> Liao


oh japan I was supposed to go this year in in like when I book out for weekend then I fly there for one weekend travel back


!wah! you willing to use your leave ah <mandarin>比我大方:bi wo da fang</mandarin> leh, !wah!,


oh <mandarin>你去过:ni qu guo</mandarin> vietnam [orh] <mandarin>上次是不是你去哪里卖肥皂那次:shang ci shi bu shi ni qu na li mai fei zao na ci</mandarin> ah


[orh] is experiential learning or something eh you lucky eh you get chosen


what did you actually do there apart from selling soap ah


no eh, what happen


shape defined and big ah, sounds like the kind of person you want to become but cannot


three four times a week, !wah! you very nice lor, I everyday after my, I I everyday after my training I tired until I just want to sleep ah don't even want to shower


oh ya, oh I was just thinking ah, we haven't watch a lot, movies as in like, actual actors playing the movies you know, like real live actors acting out the scenes for the movies cause most of the movies we watch are like


like like anime movie so


!aiya! never mind one ah, it's just that ah I in my camp


how's my girlfriend ah I feel like no cause


this is the period of time usually, usually ah you you from far far away, and there's not much interaction between you two, there's like, I don't know ah it's like it's like a bit awkward


so I we let's just say we took a bit of a break lah ah before before I went to BMT and then after BMT come back if she still want then okay lor, but if she don't want then I can respect that ah


!aiya! I feel like this is a step we have to take some at at some point


cause, you think about it, like I don't know it feels a bit lacking


can watch in camp one meh, !wah! Siao ah eh I, eh I, I missed opportunity eh !wah! Siao <mandarin>这样久这样久:zhe yang jiu zhe yang jiu</mandarin> wasted time


!wah! eh I didn't know sia, !wah! <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> I I tell you <mandarin>我知道:wo zhi dao</mandarin> ah, different story Liao


[orh], oh this one this one my mother actually works at MBS so ah she the you know MBS, cause you work for MBS then <mandarin>有一些特别的特别特别的的:you yi xie te bie de te bie te bie de de</mandarin> deals lor


then <mandarin>那个有一次他们真的卖自己:na ge you yi ci ta men zhen de mai zi ji</mandarin> hotel <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> hotel <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> pillow, so ah my mother bought, it's damn cheap you know MBS hotel pillow <mandarin>一个卖两块:yi ge mai liang kuai</mandarin> eh <mandarin>两块:liang kuai</mandarin> eh


!wah! <mandarin>在外面鸡饭都买不到你跟我讲你可以买这种:zai wai mian ji fan dou mai bu dao ni gen wo jiang ni ke yi mai zhe zhong</mandarin> higher grade pillow


so next time I got stuff print <mandarin>我来找你:wo lai zhao ni</mandarin> lor, fifty dollars for one piece <mandarin>你回去睡觉:ni hui qu shui jiao</mandarin> lah ah, dream talk save for when you sleeping


I give you printed fifty dollar can,


!aiya! so you how leh you and your girl


keep going


!wah! <mandarin>比:bi</mandarin> #lee hsien loong# <mandarin>都忙:dou mang</mandarin> ah you, everyday also got commitment


honestly ah, just like friend friend relationship never really put so much emphasis on


!wah! <mandarin>你讲到这样好像你:ni jiang dao zhe yang hao xiang ni</mandarin> thirty year old uncle like that


so ah, I feel like this year the thing I miss the most is the weekend Zouk ah


no err zouk during weekend the the you you never go clubbing meh


ah you tell me now they still go ah, !aiya!, so


I mean honestly what I look for just look at my current girlfriend lah, I mean I say we are keeping our relationship a bit low but it's like, that doesn't change the fact that you know she she's still my, my girlfriend lah, like even though we are friends friends for now the expectation is that after I complete my training


after I get out, hopefully we can still be together, it's like, the main thing is she's very positive and kind lah


as in just the two of us only lah it's like, even those people that is nice to everyone else


when you are one to one, so


honestly ah, easy say not easy do, main thing ah


I feel like if I am to go vacation japan like japan would probably be a good choice maybe Kyoto or Kyushu cause the culture like the it's more like cultural


heritage kind of, places lah


favourite food, as of now ah, cause, my mother learn how to make ah Miso soup, so now every day, so now everyday ah


like when we when I book out lah basically she will make like this big like three course meal kind of thing for me as like !wah! lucky, ah <mandarin>这样每天回来吃大餐:zhe yang mei tian hui lai chi da can</mandarin> you know


so maybe, no lah I feel like people got this misconception cause they think !wah! eh <mandarin>厨师:chu shi</mandarin> eh


!wah! <mandarin>做饭很厉害:zuo fan hen li hai</mandarin> ah so eh so ah, but that's actually, that's actually not true ah, cause, if you're a chef your job is to cook but


if you're on your if you're on leave if you are on your break, you don't want to do your job is like eh <mandarin>我好不容易一天一天一天的:wo hao bu rong yi yi tian yi tian yi tian de</mandarin> break why I need to continue working


lunch usually is my mother settle my father is like, cause he don't have his weekends off also which I don't really think make sense like why would you get monday off but not weekends off


[orh] err he work at near MBS but is not like they are renting the the MBS storefront lah but


the the the the <mandarin>招牌:zhao pai</mandarin> is not, under MBS directly


!aiya!, so so ah, pay good but then you work until your back break is, is not something I would take lah honestly but is like, it's like I don't know I feel like


so with that in mind ah my dream job it's some kind of, I don't know standard office worker ah there's a fixed hour


then <mandarin>放工就放工:fang gong jiu fang gong</mandarin> that's it, I mean working <mandarin>就是样子的:jiu shi yang zi de</mandarin> mah ah <mandarin>谁做工是因为好玩才做工的:shei zuo gong shi yin wei hao wan cai zuo gong de</mandarin>


!aiya! usually ah, I sleep at around nine thirty to ten ah, I'm now getting quite sleep deprived lately cause


I don't know ah <mandarin>在那里住住一年多:zai na li zhu zhu yi nian duo</mandarin> Liao, but still haven't find the find the <mandarin>感觉:gan jue</mandarin> you know


but, I still can't sleep properly which is a big issue, so weekend, I take I put in extra effort to sleep as much as I can


oh ya speaking of which ah, you got follow the US elections


oh ya at some point ah, at some point, biden was behind by so much then biden just !wah! !wah! <mandarin>乾坤大挪移:qian kun da nuo yi</mandarin> or something, suddenly the tables just turn on its head


and, seven is it I mean honestly cause the population will only get bigger so like


the the the next president is more likely to become the president with the most votes and then the next next president is going to top the next president and then it's going to keep, it's like it'll keep refreshing you know


so ah, your history stuff, you still remember or not


history in JC I tell you,


then it affects your other subjects and it it brings their grades down then is like just better to have not taken H three and got A on everything instead


!hais!, err, H three honestly now that I think about it is not very useful is like


it will be a tie breaker, component but it's not going to let you, if it affects your current grades then not having it is better cause, like this you will be higher up on the priority list in terms of grades lah


H three only works if you will get everything a ya


the this is the tragic part, I got a merit, so my H three did not even net me anything it it's an overall net loss taking H three


ah ya lah, eh, history honestly ah, the subject is interesting the content is interesting it's just that I hate the examinations of history so much I hate writing essay


but I want, I want to like you know learn about, the past but I don't want to write an essay about it I just want to know


the content is, some of the content is from, secondary school history, but there's a lot more content that's not from secondary school history so is like you need to know your secondary school stuff


and after that you need to know your JC stuff on top of that


you know why, this is because you are weak bro your brain CMI bro, !aiya! honestly ah the going to


!wah! it's going to stick with me for awhile, that came out of nowhere but okay, err aliens ah


I feel like it's definitely possible, universe even bigger


!aiya!, it's like you go onto a deserted island, and then you tell those you tell the people living on the deserted island what a car is


they cannot imagine what a car would look like because the concept is just too foreign you know it's like you're talking about things that doesn't exist to them how can you imagine something that does not exists right


alien life ah , !huh! how this question ah, I don't really know what you trying to ask me but, how different maybe


wait are you asking how different must the conditions be for them to live in singapore or what I I don't get it, !aiya! you you mean this then say this earlier can or not no wonder your english O level gets C lah !walao!


no it was you I remember it was you


err how different will live be, I don't know ah if we are the first batch to get the alien visitors ah, it's gonna be weird for quite a bit I feel


oh ya, because of COVID even if they live in singapore we won't really know, cause they stuck at home just like us then everybody in their own house how people know got alien


my best or worst habit my best habit is, waking up early and sleeping early my worst habit is calling out people when they randomly change the topic without any signs of it previously


!hais!, actually ah, now


now COVID I feel like the, I don't know it's like the delivery apps for food and like online shopping, they get so much profits now, because that's all everybody are doing


voluntary work`, not that I can remember ah


most of the time, don't really remember


oh <mandarin>这种这种:zhe zhong zhe zhong</mandarin> is only for the experienced one, if you have never been in a UG before I feel like you should definitely try it out


cause ah, uniform group lah cause, uniform group, you is a bit different from army cause army we mostly are the ones just receiving instructions in uniform group you actually need to


give instructions like, you need to be able to give instructions effectively so that's kind of like teaching, and it's actually really difficult if you have never ever done it before so I feel like


you should try it out once so at least we can empathise with our teachers better when they say they are, they are you know tired during the day or these kind of things lah


fishing, the topics jumping quite wildly ah kelvin, talking with me talking with me really that difficult meh


do I like fishing, it's a bit boring for my taste I would rather do something more like, like I can actively engaged in for example ah, like this is why I play video games more than I watch Anime now


it's because when I watch Anime I'm just sitting there watching I'm I'm just, absorbing information but, I cannot provide any, any any inputs on it's like my decisions


I can't make decisions basically, I feel like I need to be hundred percent engaged in something that I do otherwise I feel like I'm not using my time effectively


oh my god attack on titan season four is coming out and it's going to be so hype I tell you this is literally oh my god you never read the manga right


no I feel like it's twenty twenty one spring I not very sure but basically we still need to wait for quite a bit


but the season is so hype dude we get is like the previous season ended off at the perfect spot as a cliffhanger you know, they, ah you


!aiya!, anyway if you never read the manga, just just brace yourself, the animation looks to be quite good also from the trailers


as in like the animation of the characters ah, I don't know I don't really care about studio I only care about what I see on my screen


!wah! except for a few that reminds me did you watch err the seven deadly sins


did you watch, did you watch season three of the seven deadly sins, the animation is not good it's so bad it's literally a slide show I have no idea why you can say that it's watchable


oh I think it's called Arifureta, let me just say, the CGI is one of the worst I have ever seen it's not berserk twenty sixteen levels but it's really really bad


oh really I did I I feel the story is a bit, it's a bit how do I put it contrived it's like


it's pretty flat but, it tries to take itself too seriously, and like it's very I guess edgy


I don't really like that, oh speaking of edgy, ah sword art online, the the season three part two


got delayed


!wah! eh you missing out bro, the season three is honestly so good story wise and it's like it's not just that it's quality but then it's also


pretty long for a normal Anime you know


that really do take me back when I was in lower primary, I think I was watching beyblade


I feel like even if it's on TV is some like, it's some kind of, err forced season where it's just milking the brand at this point, , if you just think about it from how long ago we watched beyblade


it's like, it's it if it's still airing now it's long pass the, it's long past its prime, legendary long works like one piece come once in like I don't know ten thousand years or something it's really rare so


my main issue with one piece is they talk so much they talk in a middle of of fight I don't understand why


I I honestly just don't understand at this point, they talk, they fight they flashback they fight and it's like you have this weird poses in between the fight scenes and it's so unsatisfying to watch


because of how slow it is I decided to completely dropped one piece


your house is messy, why because you keep ordering stuff online is it, !wah! just buy the entire house off of Taobao


oh eleven eleven, at this in this kind of time ah everything will go on sale but then you have to watch out because some things


they look like they go on sale but they actually don't go on sale because they mark up the initial price, so even if they do a sale they are still earning regular, like they are still charging you the regular price it's just that because they mark up the initial price they can


say that they discounted their goods, ya honestly I feel like


if there's something I really want like if it's something that I will buy even if there is no sale then I will gladly buy it during eleven eleven, but if it's something I really, don't need as in like


there's no burning desire for it, I feel like I will just let it go


really you do cause I honestly don't, JC life, is so, I don't know I feel like it's been the worst time of my life honestly


is just a bit stressful I don't know about you but I feel like sleeping three hours a day to mug really isn't just a bit stressful


okay bye

ya but I think now can already cause like <mandarin>我讲话的时候我讲话的时候:wo jiang hua de shi hou wo jiang hua de shi hou</mandarin> okay it's like blue already, okay ah if I feel ya <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> lor, ya, actually


okay then can one by one lah <mandarin>不用紧:bu yong jin</mandarin> ah, I think okay lah okay wait


ya actually, actually we can talk about <mandarin>我们的我们的那个什么:wo men de wo men de na ge shen me</mandarin> ah , because technically


wait but then you say <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> your friend give you the interview is what, (uh huh)


oh


it's it's quite legit <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> ah, [orh], because like I mean you


you I thought like you take computer sciece then, interested in like <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> finance sector meh


oh ya <mandarin>你你是你是:ni ni shi ni shi</mandarin> double degree right, is it double degree right, ya


!wah! business shit


ya because, technically, com science in finance is <mandarin>做什么:zuo shen me</mandarin> sia it's like you code the finance <mandarin>的那个:de na ge</mandarin> system is it like, right technically


ya, ya, ya cause like it's the NTU one <mandarin>要三年的:yao san nian de</mandarin> leh


!wah! is, Sibei <mandarin>划算:hua suan</mandarin> though it's like damn worth eh, like <mandarin>真的:zhen de</mandarin> very worth one eh, like like my


what, I just realised


(uh huh)


oh so it's like a bit lag ah, I can, I can hear you it's cause like <mandarin>可能我这边的:ke neng wo zhe bian de</mandarin> wifi <mandarin>有一点:you yi dian</mandarin> bad


ya, but I think, I, but I think should be fine <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> lah because like, if they sync that's why they sync the the thing by clapping <mandarin>我们的手:wo men de shou</mandarin> right I mean like if we clap then should be quite sync already right


look at me, ya then you just <mandarin>不用不用:bu yong bu yong</mandarin> look at <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> lor it's okay one lah but okay lah but, ya so now I'm legit contemplating whether I should you know cause I take <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> course already right like I fucking shit <mandarin>我可以:wo ke yi</mandarin> swear mah


ya, like more authentic lah


ya, ya honest, should be, ya because I, ya lah but anyways just <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> spend <mandarin>很多时间:hen duo shi jian</mandarin> right go and, remember I told you about the Coursera <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> hack that you do finish during the trial


like we finish it during the trial then you then you don't need to pay right !wah! I tell you, so I, I think like last week <mandarin>还是什么:hai shi shen me</mandarin> I think I try to Chiong eh, to finish the like the entire cause I think like, I <mandarin>总共:zong gong</mandarin> like ten months then I try to finish it within like one week


!wah! you know I try it almost like kill myself but, but then now I tell myself why do I really need internship because back then right <mandarin>我是想:wo shi xiang</mandarin> like internship is, to get scholarship, but then like <mandarin>如果我做一个:ru guo wo zuo yi ge</mandarin> like random out of nowhere <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> internship


also like no use mah then might as well just get a job, then <mandarin>我自自己都曼:wo zi zi ji dou man</mandarin> the salary if I get a good enough income, !aiya! <mandarin>干脆不要做:gan cui bu yao zuo</mandarin> internship lah


I don't have cause


that guy is, not right not right I think his mum I think <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> parents right, before he give birth right before they give birth they use some gene hack is, hor not fair not fair


ya wait


[orh], ya okay okay, ya, ya okay lah I think <mandarin>我们做:wo men zuo</mandarin> our best lah


to the maximum, but honestly, actually do like <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> if you think about it right like now


that means their that means voice voice recognition is program in a way that they only detect like <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> language at each time right, that's why they need they need like singlish right


ya, ya


ya I know I know, ya but I think also because like okay <mandarin>如果你去:ru guo ni qu</mandarin> you try to open like


like it's damn interesting lah like I think when they detect right <mandarin>它只可以:ta zhi ke yi</mandarin> like detect, I mean it's just cause, singlish is like not that special kind


ya sia Rojak eh, actually no actually <mandarin>我看那个:wo kan na ge</mandarin> like their example right their like so called english is [orh]


, if is it's like a parrot you know jasmond and his parrots, ya


ya at, ya okay lah also depends on whether like actually they never say like you need only need to submit like one hour right


, (uh huh), oh so you so ,


ya, ya, , okay lah hopefully it'll help ah


actually I I I <mandarin>看这个:kan zhe ge</mandarin> message I think I see a lot of time already eh, like <mandarin>每次在那个:mei ci zai na ge</mandarin> Telegram right then they will like always show like, like oh need don't know do what oh for singlish then, I think my friend send before then I was like eh, sound very dubious ah <mandarin>什么来的:shen me lai de</mandarin> then NUS sia


ya linguistic eh like, ya so I think it's under linguistic, ya is the incentive quite high ah the money


like active, ya


exactly like, because at first look ah <mandarin>你会觉得:ni hui jue de</mandarin> like !wah! eighteen bucks per hour !wah! Sibei <mandarin>划算:hua suan</mandarin> sia like what the freak, like it's damn worth it but then you actually think about it !wah! the effort you put in, to talk nonstop for like <mandarin>整个一个小时:zheng ge yi ge xiao shi</mandarin> eh like


what's that what's that


ya actually if, if you do anything that exceed more than a few more hours right like I think the brain right <mandarin>会:hui</mandarin> auto shut down then you just can't speak singlish even, eh actually <mandarin>我这样讲话有没有:wo zhe yang jiang hua you mei you</mandarin> echo ah


[orh] I just scared like the later the phone recording <mandarin>会有一点:hui you yi dian</mandarin> echo, not good


ya okay lah then that's not too bad, !aiya!, I guess


I, ya then I'm like !aiya! <mandarin>不懂会不会:bu dong hui bu hui</mandarin> overlap !aiya!


ya and then plus the light right <mandarin>我会觉得:wo hui jue de</mandarin> eh <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> is he going to speak or not then I'm like eh shit, ya, uh !aiya! but I don't, eh can you show me your entire like collection of the <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> soft toy


is this your room this your room ah


wait I don't think you ever like explain to us like <mandarin>你怎样:ni zen yang</mandarin> like, Punggol place ah, so what happen ah


okay okay, , runner who, is it the agent thing, [orh] your brother okay okay


ya then I I had to awkwardly come into my parent's room because like, I got chased into here


ya cause like, ya cause, cause uh she need to I mean like the wifi is the worst here so


how, [orh]


ya, can I take something


wait so the entire time, then why you say alone but <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> aunt is still there right


oh my god


no eh it's just funny , cause like honestly okay lah actually it's quite Shiok right, that's why #wen kai# everytime like hear you hear you like <mandarin>讲:jiang</mandarin> the story then he like like always like very envious like that


ya I know what you mean ya I know what you mean but you know he I think, his mum is like <mandarin>是会比较:shi hui bi jiao</mandarin> like, more controlling in that sense, ya, I also don't know one, I think like what he say <mandarin>他讲:ta jiang</mandarin> like if he go out and exercise then <mandarin>他妈妈也会:ta ma ma ye hui</mandarin> like question this and that ya lah


and I thought my mum was bad


ya then like then like you don't need to say you go <mandarin>跳舞:tiao wu</mandarin> what you can just like, say you go buy like, I always say I I go I go buy something then I go and like exercise, !aiya!, but also because like my parents like , like they <mandarin>做工:zuo gong</mandarin> is like from like morning until like <mandarin>晚上:wan shang</mandarin> like damn late so like when they come back


I will always be at home already


wait, so you thought it was like ghost is it


[orh]


(uh huh), then it wake up again [orh]


!wah! then actually if you, like, the the bills is is who <mandarin>还:hai</mandarin> sia is it your aunt, your cousins


is a is a good boy , actually I always wanted to live alone sia but like, cannot lah you know like, ya but I think my my dad okay at first I


you know my dad is the more like <mandarin>比较:bi jiao</mandarin> like <mandarin>随便:sui bian</mandarin> ah then my mum is a bit more like strict one, then I thought like if I convince my dad then my dad <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> then I I <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> but then, recently he's like <mandarin>最近他讲:zui jin ta jiang</mandarin> like, I think you don't go better later you like <mandarin>学坏:xue huai</mandarin> or like you know bad influence


then I'm like !huh! <mandarin>哪里会:na li hui</mandarin> cause I think too much of the NUS news already recently, then <mandarin>他讲:ta jiang</mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>如果:ru guo</mandarin> you go and <mandarin>住:zhu</mandarin> hall then you go and film other <mandarin>女孩子冲凉:nv hai zi chong liang</mandarin> or whatever then I'm like


okay, ya ya I I also hope I can say that but recently I went to dye my hair then I also tell him <mandarin>我我要穿耳洞:wo wo yao chuan er dong</mandarin> then he like, okay you good


eh how's my hair, brown


ya, ya, wait are you using the laptop <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> desktop


[orh] yours is the, [orh] because I see right then they say


I thought it will be like more greyish, but no, ya know know <mandarin>我几:wo ji</mandarin> envy <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> you know like it's like you don't you don't even need to dye then your natural <mandarin>是这样的颜色:shi zhe yang de yan se</mandarin> eh like damn nice


you are so blessed, what is what's fuckboys, eh but my hair is damn thin also what then I think after I dye my hair right then <mandarin>它那个:ta na ge</mandarin> volume I think got increase eh like damn weird one


like not kidding, ya like you know normally, so I so I went to search cause like I always hear people <mandarin>讲:jiang</mandarin> like <mandarin>它会变成有一点:ta hui bian cheng you yi dian</mandarin> dry <mandarin>有一点:you yi dian</mandarin> like thin thin <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> right, but then they say it actually sometimes it might add texture then


because you they say like got one quoting of dyeing, like outside of <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> hair right <mandarin>他会讲:ta hui jiang</mandarin> like,


oh, like more frizzy, I guess


ya, because honestly your hair already looks dye already like <mandarin>挺好看:ting hao kan</mandarin> already


it's not gonna help it's not about like the <mandarin>发型:fa xing</mandarin> is about how you style it


true, ya


how about right you cut your the side right then <mandarin>你中间:ni zhong jian</mandarin> like <mandarin>剪短一点:jian duan yi dian</mandarin> cause I think now it keeps going down it's cause, each strand right is like <mandarin>太长:tai zhang</mandarin> then it's very heavy right then it will drop down, then if you make it


, and they okay lor then they <mandarin>修:xiu</mandarin> already, ya legit like


like different people different <mandarin>修一点:xiu yi dian</mandarin> ah like I I I I can't trust them anymore, got this auntie right I just tell her to <mandarin>修一点:xiu yi dian</mandarin> then she, fucking hell she go and cut until like I like come out of SCS one I'm like bro, , okay lah as my BMT but ya


I think you will legit do good, ya does it actually have degree <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> degree <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> ha, [orh] is the blue lie [orh]


yes yes yes just print no it's just my my sis is coming into the room, then like then like you can like if I enter <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> door right then, and then when she come in then <mandarin>我需要:wo xu yao</mandarin> like my leg will like, you understand, ya


so I, ya, ya, halfway there, it is just a normal conversation [orh] I think just that


I mean, okay lah I think it's reminisce, err back then [orh] <mandarin>我们小时候:wo men xiao shi hou</mandarin> ah , I feel like as we enter JC right then like like more standard english already


like all the teacher keep telling me like, okay my GP was in a Desu club so can't say much, was in the Desu club you know Desu club D E S U


, is the grades, it's the grades Desu, so that <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> grade ya, ya this is what


it's like the #hwa chong# lah <mandarin>我们的:wo men de</mandarin> culture ah call it Desu club, what you doing, I'm going home I packing for tomorrow, ya it is ya, don't think I can do it anymore <mandarin>太难:tai nan</mandarin> already


, , is red colour one, can you see, no SCS is yellow colour


no it's not it's not, SCT <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> singlet is not like that one, SCT is not like that one ya it's like a bit yellow I don't know where what is this I just went to the E mart


then <mandarin>我看:wo kan</mandarin> like my my credit can buy for me and then I just buy everything, so I collected like, a lot of, oh wait is oh can one ah, no cause okay


cause I went on the day right where the E mart like the system like company down, so right Walan, okay the aunty the aunty was like okay nevermind you use


you don't need to give me money, cause it's like I so basically what they do is, they treat it as <mandarin>你用那个:ni yong na ge</mandarin> credit then you have anything that exceed the quota right, they charge you with real money


that's why that's why so they add it as credit, then if you exceed anything when system like <mandarin>重新:chong xin</mandarin> up already right anything you exceed right they just charge you on real money, ya so I was damn scared I was like shit shit shit shit shit shit shit so I need to control a bit control a bit


ya so I only, oh my, got got so that's why the aunty very nice <mandarin>她帮我算:ta bang wo suan</mandarin> right like #agar agar#, cause I know right I #agak agak# have how much credit to spare


then the rest right then <mandarin>剩下:sheng xia</mandarin> right I just order online, ya, because deliver to your house right you pay like I think, I think <mandarin>十二块:shi er kuai</mandarin> credit only, I mean not bad lah I I can't complain much ah


ya, oh yes I I thought like we cannot buy other other uni the, cause the cause the the aunty


the aunty was like eh you <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> you choose <mandarin>几个:ji ge</mandarin> right like you might need to buy one, then then she see all the eh <mandarin>怎么这样多:zen me zhe yang duo</mandarin> all different kind of PT kit <mandarin>你随便乱买的:ni sui bian luan mai de</mandarin> right, then I said I never buy I also want to make ah then I just but I want aunty


then she just okay okay okay, , ya chevron dude the queue is, the queue is okay so like I think fucking Google cheated us cause we


they say open like what ten like eight thirty or something, but it's paid rent one so we went there cause we're like okay nevermind ah we just go like one hour after it open, then we went there at like eleven plus, there was a fucking ass long queue and then on the door it says open at eleven am then I'm eh no me and my friend like !huh!


why like that then I <mandarin>做么这样子:zuo me zhe yang zi</mandarin> then I'm like okay [orh], ya but I, ya, , ya that's why we were like I was like !wah! Heng ah cause at first we were like okay ah


Heng Heng Heng, but still there was a lot of people and it was like


!aiyo! <mandarin>买什么:mai shen me</mandarin> !aiyo! canteen ah , where got time for full time one, !haiya! <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> eh now I'm doing the excel course right


you do already right is it you finish already ah


eh what's that, !hey! Google oh wait am I on speaker

no offence lah but , CMI dude, oh wells,


oh <mandarin>我还没有到的:wo hai mei you dao de</mandarin> eh, ya, one year right, ya


no because I I I got see right they like they like the, either you have one year full of U Udemy, or like or like like, oh shit I think I put my phone uh too far away


cause ah when I'm when I'm talking right, K, no lah I think <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> it's just, K lah actually I put here around the same K lah I put at my screen there


ya but anyways the point is, what was I trying to say uh ya ya see right, so my friend right <mandarin>他去找:ta qu zhao</mandarin> right like the different kind of course that are worth taking, and a lot of them uh exceed beyond the amount of credit that we have


like cause we only have like what <mandarin>三百块三百多块:san bai kuai san bai duo kuai</mandarin> only, like all those


ya exactly and it's only like what <mandarin>几天而已:ji tian er yi</mandarin> [orh] like one week at at most, bro like might as well go a special term


oh, (uh huh)


, confirm <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> [orh], ya but


I mean but then again Udemy, like you learn learn lor but like <mandarin>他们讲:ta men jiang</mandarin> like the certificate is not like, said like like recognized by all the err <mandarin>大学:da xue</mandarin> one lah it's like just general learning, for your for your own good one


yes you will but the certificates are not, like recognized, like


ya, no lah, I think <mandarin>没有没有这样:mei you mei you zhe yang</mandarin> lah, it's only those that you pay then they will give you certificate then then <mandarin>你在:ni zai</mandarin> paying for your certificate lah


but the Udemy one is one year one year free access mah, I think it's quite worth in that sense ah


okay lah not wrong lah, I mean I don't know lah just anything that, 'cause you meet the daily on yet affordable option


oh, wait is mother out, oh, oh shit eh I think he is eh can go already bye


hello, yup, sorry, ya


no lah eh <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> wait you you can hear me now right, ya it's picking up because it's like not <mandarin>不是:bu shi</mandarin> internet based <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> mah, ya


so all is well cause, because because okay but you never pause like your recording right, ya cause, ya no pause that's the whole point I think just do not pause it ya, but good news is I just switched <mandarin>房间:fang jian</mandarin> so


show the internet is more okay but the connection and like is it is it still laggy, is like,


okay <mandarin>变回:bian hui</mandarin> normal already ah K then then that's good that's good, ya, , , oh my gosh, it looks like super sexy sia, Sibei <mandarin>性感:xing gan</mandarin> dude


sex bomb, , but are you gonna stay in hall, wait NTU <mandarin>的是怎样:de shi zen yang</mandarin> ah


(mmhmm)


, but <mandarin>他会让你:ta hui rang ni</mandarin> choose <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> right


(uh huh), !aww! that's quite nice actually


[orh], oh ya, [orh] but do you do you


no no no no why why why why


like, like the the Zoom the Zoom or what, ya


but I guess is fine lah cause the whole point is, ya, ya, okay lah wait what was it what was it ah ya the NTU one so there's no one <mandarin>没有其他的没有其他人:mei you qi ta de mei you qi ta ren</mandarin> meh like in in our MEC


really, ya that's why that's why


you know when when jonathan was like, why you don't want go NTU cause like he was desperately trying to, like <mandarin>找一个去:zhao yi ge qu</mandarin> NTU <mandarin>的人:de ren</mandarin> right then she's like then he's like , !walao! all these faggots <mandarin>全部去:quan bu qu</mandarin> NUS <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> then I'm like !aww! too bad but but


but not saying NTU is bad it's just, I don't know, ya, because they say NTU is like <mandarin>比较:bi jiao</mandarin> like for engineering right then NUS is


no lah NUS is I don't know everything else NTU is like engineering and like, I think I think medicine also not bad right their medicine school their business school also not bad


ya !wah! actually actually your, ya cause Nanyang business school what I thought it's quite like also quite recognised <mandarin>的不是:de bu shi</mandarin> meh,


wait so your home, your home faculty is is computing, ya because when I when I okay lah technically back them when I had my


what's that ah cause I got <mandarin>我拿那个两个:wo na na ge liang ge</mandarin> double major then is like, econs and business so they put me under business I mean I'll rather be in business than be in FASS ah so, no complaints, ya


ya I change already, is the second year the second year like to ya this year lor, ya, ya I was actually very scared


but then like, ya and then, technically ah, ya, it's quite like I think out of everything else is like, this if I've have to like like <mandarin>选一个:xuan yi ge</mandarin> right this is gonna be the one already because like <mandarin>其他的都比较:qi ta de dou bi jiao</mandarin> like


as in I'm very passionate for like chemistry but then like, !wah! <mandarin>真的是:zhen de shi</mandarin> I cannot that kind man, then I think like


computing ah like, recent recent years is like the most in demand and you can earn yourself a living, if anything else I interested in then I just do it as a side hustle lor <mandarin>不用经的:bu yong jing de</mandarin> I don't know, ya


noise, business analytics business analytics, ya so it's like a combination of business, ya, !aww! man it's okay cause like


ya that's why that's why <mandarin>那个谁:na ge shei</mandarin> ah #wen kai# also ask me whether want stay hall together or not, ya, ya, I'm pretty sure you ask around <mandarin>有很多个:you hen duo ge</mandarin> NTU <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> lah


I'm pretty sure you ask around <mandarin>会有很多个:hui you hen duo ge</mandarin> NTU <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> lah, I mean your your JC friends mah


true, no but the thing is


eh, okay don ah eh then go with don ah okay but but okay firstly #xuan yi#, I need to clarify the <mandarin>一点:yi dian</mandarin> right is you can't stay with girls anyways


no because you say what like err <mandarin>如果要住:ru guo yao zhu</mandarin> hall must cannot ask the girls cause they two years,


ask don lah, oh


, !aiya! but I think johnathan also like I think he also not much friend like <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> JC friend right not much, not much going NTU also, sadly


I honestly think, really


sorry there was a slight interruption


ya, ya no lah confirm, I think <mandarin>我们多:wo men duo</mandarin> like <mandarin>几分钟:ji fen zhong</mandarin> around there a few minute, ya


ya !wah! now you can only see, wait actually can you see my whole body, ya it's a virtual background


ya you can add your own, X hamster, no it's under virtual background like background and filter then <mandarin>你你去:ni ni qu</mandarin> virtual background, what is video filter


, ya it's the plus then I like, then I always like mess around and then Sibei <mandarin>好玩:hao wan</mandarin> sia then I just like, I will always add this kind of thing one


okay I can put this one, reminisce our MEC days, actually


ya, okay, actually this <mandarin>这:zhe</mandarin> technology I think is like quite advanced ya like honestly, they can figure out where our face I mean okay lah, actually how ah, how do they do it ah <mandarin>怎样做:zen yang zuo</mandarin> sia


oh my gosh, ya like


ya it's definitely not singapore one I don't know it's just on my com cause, eh why do I even have this <mandarin>照片:zhao pian</mandarin> ah, oh I think because I was when I was trying to design the, the logo, for our <mandarin>我们的:wo men de</mandarin> shirt right then I just like <mandarin>随便去找:sui bian qu zhao</mandarin> it it is damn hard to find like a


okay so apparently I hear from #hao ren# ah mister howie [orh] <mandarin>他讲:ta jiang</mandarin> right


that like <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> OC like he go tell jasmond like he need to like <mandarin>签字:qian zi</mandarin> like give it to us, , then I'm like, no I, I don't think he's even back I think he just got back only


eh <mandarin>今天礼拜:jin tian li bai</mandarin> right ya like jasmond they all, okay, what's the reason, okay


is it, jasmond


, he's a joke, ya cause the, because the entire time right, like he was so lazy he just ask me to do everything


like then I'm like, ya then I'm like, why you <mandarin>这样子对我:zhe yang zi dui wo</mandarin> !aiya! whatever lah anyways he find some shady ass, I don't know ah it looks damn looks damn shady ah I hope the shirt like <mandarin>不会:bu hui</mandarin> turn out like damn bad


eh, ya, legit, !aiya! I don't know lah this all this intern thing actually eh are you gonna just go for the B N one is it


okay,


oh


legit ah, because B B N, wait B N advisory is legit under AIA


oh okay


oh shit, ya


like starting pay is <mandarin>已经是两千:yi jing shi liang qian</mandarin> Liao


, ya, !wah! transport <mandarin>真的:zhen de</mandarin> Sibei expensive


, ya, what do you mean like no cause


like like fixed no it's not fixed what


ya I start recording already, so I count ah three two one, then I put put back the earphones, they said <mandarin>刚才他们说那个:gang cai ta men shuo na ge</mandarin> app right, when the voice recording like the sound wave right like


[orh] <mandarin>你刚才有红色:ni gang cai you hong se</mandarin> ah, okay lah that means quite safe lah


okay


, if that's the case right I guess we can start by talking


what are you going to do now that you ORD, , right, [orh] <mandarin>实习东西:shi xi dong xi</mandarin> ah but then like


okay I guess can can although I don't have a <mandarin>实习:shi xi</mandarin> eh like I'm not actually gonna <mandarin>实习:shi xi</mandarin> yet


oh so I <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> BMT <mandarin>的朋友:de peng you</mandarin> right his name is called june I I just call K J ah correct, so like K J tell me right he found some like internship right regarding financial adviser one, so he went for <mandarin>那面试:na mian shi</mandarin> then the guy was like telling him right like


then like he just recommended my name to his, boss ah <mandarin>他老板:ta lao ban</mandarin> like tell him oh I have this <mandarin>朋友:peng you</mandarin> called #xuan yi# who wants to like, err also interested in finding this internship then ask me to do ah, this year


err I think the company was called AAG something alliance group, it's like <mandarin>保险的:bao xian de</mandarin> company one <mandarin>保险的:bao xian de</mandarin> company, ya


why okay so I in this is the thing right is I also got take, like business as my uh second degree, then right I relax right business right <mandarin>有很多行业:you hen duo hang ye</mandarin> eh like, sorry


ya that's why then I I realise right the other day business got <mandarin>很多行业:hen duo hang ye</mandarin> like got


ya so I was like, computer science right I definitely cannot find any uh internship one, so I want to look for business <mandarin>的工作:de gong zuo</mandarin> like cause it's quite quite standard ah so I thought I can find some ah, that's where I find all these very <mandarin>奇奇怪怪的:qi qi guai guai de</mandarin> like like very sus ah very sus kind of company that says they are financial adviser


I I I feel like it's it's like these two degree is quite useful because like, then with like their <mandarin>软件:ruan jian</mandarin> right it's like pointless to have like a product right but then I don't know how to <mandarin>推销:tui xiao</mandarin> it to other people


so I feel like that's why these two is very popular together, it's just what I feel lah, ya I went with business in NTU ah just because it's three years, and not like <mandarin>四:si</mandarin> like <mandarin>四年:si nian</mandarin> some other uni


ya then it's damn, I just realize, eh, no ah it's okay, err you were saying something, !huh!


oh, ya ya that's why that's why I want to tell you I realise right I not sure whether it's just me right but <mandarin>我跟你讲话的时候:wo gen ni jiang hua de shi hou</mandarin> right, like I will see your mouth moving right then I will hear <mandarin>那个声音:na ge sheng yin</mandarin> like a few seconds later


or is it like I speak already you can hear me like my voice immediately, oh K it's okay I need to learn how to put like those kind of background


no lah as in I don't think like <mandarin>我们的:wo men de</mandarin> conversation right will affect <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> recording I feel like, cause there's only is the only issue right when we speak like that right it's like, it's a bit harder for me to like listen to you talk and like


ya, otherwise it's okay ah


uh I think okay lah <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> lah <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> just just just swear a little can I think it's okay ah I mean it's, I mean at the end err this is like some uni project right like <mandarin>大学的:da xue de</mandarin> so I feel like they want, our authentics singlish <mandarin>的声音:de sheng yin</mandarin> right so as to able to train their voice recognition software


so I guess, talking normally is okay, , hack


(uh huh)


oh ya eh that's, oh so <mandarin>现在你没有:xian zai ni mei you</mandarin> scholarship right, it's okay I feel you <mandarin>我的成绩也不是很好:wo de cheng ji ye bu shi hen hao</mandarin> only only, howie got scholarship in PLB okay or not excluding


gideon ah gideon is a special <mandarin>他是个很特别的孩子:ta shi ge hen te bie de hai zi</mandarin> he's a very special child like you know he knows too many stuff


but okay lah as as in it's not I feel like right


we're not really forcing ourselves to <mandarin>讲华语:jiang hua yu</mandarin> a lot of times it's just that the the standard, that we use to speak in normal singlish right, is very specific is only those


cause we not only want to make sure that they have more of our like the <mandarin>华语的声音:hua yu de sheng yin</mandarin> mah we wanted to have more than that, so we try to speak as much as we can ah I feel cause they say minimumly <mandarin>六分钟就够:liu fen zhong jiu gou</mandarin> Liao mah but I feel like, for uh you can give as much chinese as possible even though it's not


hundred Percently natural, what, no as in that <mandarin>他们他们要的那个:ta men ta men yao de na ge</mandarin> their minimum condition right is like we speak, err in chinese for ten percent of the of the time so


but then is like super hard and I feel like a bit <mandarin>有一点不是很好意思:you yi dian bu shi hen hao yi si</mandarin> ah to like


can just give mores, ya I mean is to help them with their voice recognition <mandarin>软件:ruan jian</mandarin>


no lah, they they need like <mandarin>大量的是:da liang de shi</mandarin> uh voice recordings right from their machine learning ah okay I don't want to say it in chinese ah so I just continue with, like you you you know how like, err <mandarin>电脑:dian nao</mandarin> right recognize all the different images online is not that


ya they just keep on like feeding, the same uh different images of like uh <mandarin>蜜蜂:mi feng</mandarin> ah like bees ah


and then recognise oh <mandarin>这个是一个蜜蜂:zhe ge shi yi ge mi feng</mandarin> that that's not a bee that kind of stuff ah, so I think they are doing the same thing ah


oh, , !wah! <mandarin>有马来语:you ma lai yu</mandarin> not bad not bad,


, not very long, ya eh it's like it's like they have a very okay I don't think, that <mandarin>他们不知道真正的英文华语:ta men bu zhi dao zhen zheng de ying wen hua yu</mandarin> they I'm sure they know english and chinese but it's like


when they trying to show a perfect model example right they try to like <mandarin>逼那些字音进去:bi nei xie zi yin jin qu</mandarin> right it's like super duper, fucking sus bro it's like oh shit okay I actually <mandarin>我差一点我有没有骂粗话:wo cha yi dian wo you mei you ma cu hua</mandarin> I I am sorry , did this reminds me right of like that time Google right they released a new AI chatbot


cause every single person who talk to the AI through messaging right they just keep on using fuck fuck fuck hehe, then the the AI started to use curse word also


damn, eh but I feel like right we we can go to like maybe one hour, ten minutes ah like <mandarin>多十分钟:duo shi fen zhong</mandarin> I think safer, cause I guess, there is been awkward pausing like I will stop here every now and then as part of the conversation lah so I guess


ah so as in we can do two hours ah I guess but I I I don't think they'll pay us more ah, so <mandarin>变成:bian cheng</mandarin> right they they only need like maybe like one hour from each pair of person so good enough ah


ya lor


[ho] [ho]


K lah actually, not super high either ah it's it's quite it's quite high effort like we need to actually, talk very specific and, like consciously <mandarin>讲一些华语:jiang yi xie hua yu</mandarin> here and there, to make sure it helps their software


hehe , oh but then, eh okay lah I feel like eighteen per hour is like super high but then <mandarin>一个小时:yi ge xiao shi</mandarin> is very little time ah it's like okay lah but it's quite


tiring to talk for one hour uh more than like six hours continuously, oh [ho] eh six hour I will die eh


eh


err when I speak right there's like sudden spikes of like up <mandarin>上下上下的:shang xia shang xia de</mandarin> waves ah, but then when I not speaking right it's generally quite <mandarin>扁的:bian de</mandarin> it's like quite flat, or maybe a bit of like background noises here and there ah


ya but I feel like I have to, make this known right sometimes we pause like <mandarin>停下来那两三秒:ting xia lai na liang san miao</mandarin> right it's not because we awkward is I feel like we I don't know whether my friend is going to speak


so I I wait for him to see whether he gonna speak so we don't overlap, right right right <mandarin>你也是这样:ni ye shi zhe yang</mandarin> right, ya like everytime I see your mouth move right I'm like <mandarin>我嘴巴要闭:wo zui ba yao bi</mandarin> Liao <mandarin>闭:bi</mandarin> shut up shut up shut up shut up


what, ya that's why <mandarin>肯定的:ken ding de</mandarin> it's normal, oh ya eh but this is your first time seeing right this is this is <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> new kilkey his name is guilty


why they are on my bed it's a bit I need to like leave the the, ya it's my room it's my room but it's it's way smaller than like the one I had in Punggol like when, like <mandarin>两年前我住在:liang nian qian wo zhu zai</mandarin> Punggol <mandarin>的时候:de shi hou</mandarin> right


it's like it's quite it's quite fucking huge ah I had like a lot of space and then I was alone it's quite quite fucking Shiok, , ya


my wait err <mandarin>你等我一下我的:ni deng wo yi xia wo de</mandarin> brother just, Whatsapp <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> I need to tell him that I am busy right now with this, err


no no uh no not runner runner <mandarin>我的我的弟弟我弟弟:wo de wo de di di wo di di</mandarin> my brother my brother, ya


oh as in, as in it's not cause <mandarin>你要去她的房间:ni yao qu ta de fang jian</mandarin> is like she needs your <mandarin>房间:fang jian</mandarin> right that's why you have to go to her room, is it, [orh] okay lah no worries


okay so like to feedback to refer back to your question right like I I I hope, like they don't super listen to it very <mandarin>仔细:zi xi</mandarin> or else I'll fucking like ooh, ya but like basically like when I was in <mandarin>小学的时候:xiao xue de shi hou</mandarin> right


then I don't know how lah but somehow, then they they just let me stay with my aunt then I like I just like


take my stuff take my stuff, then <mandarin>背到我背后:bei dao wo bei hou</mandarin> then like I just move to Punggol and like eh <mandarin>三姑你好我住在这里:san gu ni hao wo zhu zai zhe li</mandarin> , ya then like I just stay there for err my entire <mandarin>中学:zhong xue</mandarin> uh the


those four years right I was just staying in Punggol, then like, because you know when you primary school right all your friends right after awhile right <mandarin>你不不是很熟:ni bu bu shi hen shu</mandarin> Liao cause back then right, social media right just is quite new so we do and no one had phone

oh oh shit, oh like oh, oh ya

what, no as in I didn't think it was ghost, I I I realised <mandarin>那个冷气没有关:na ge leng qi mei you guan</mandarin> I realize like when I open the door right, the the aircon was so strong right


to like want to go check eh shit is the aircon really really on, then I see got one light there then the the flaps are open then I like I can feel <mandarin>那个风在吹在我脸上:na ge feng zai chui zai wo lian shang</mandarin> then I was like oh my god, it has been turned on the entire time, then I was like eh cannot be [orh] I remember when I leave my house right, I got on the the the the the the sleep mode ah

the the colour accuracy of this laptop right it's not very clear like it's one of the reason why this laptop is quite cheap at nine hundred dollars


ya I thought I at first I at first I thought right <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> recording right need to send like, a video clip of us actually talking also, I thought like <mandarin>要要:yao yao</mandarin> like

ha


no as in uh ya <mandarin>没有过期还没有过期:mei you guo qi hai mei you guo qi</mandarin> you can still use one but then uh ya it expires right one year after we ORD, ya but you got see the <mandarin>那个那些:na ge nei xie</mandarin> the courses they offer or not is is legit damn <mandarin>烂:lan</mandarin> it's like fucking shit bro


it's like, ya, why like the voice recording


there's no, eh ya I cannot see ,


uh hehe


, , ya eh is they Siao eh they some of the course right <mandarin>一千块:yi qian kuai</mandarin> eh I was like what the fuck you want me to top up


it's by uh NTU <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> NTU <mandarin>的一个:de yi ge</mandarin> course err I think it was the accounting one


accounting one <mandarin>是一个月:shi yi ge yue</mandarin> computer science <mandarin>也是一个月:ye shi yi ge yue</mandarin> then I I I wanted to go for computer science one at first, but then actually should I still go I don't know I feel like, actually maybe I should go it is


it's either they will teach <mandarin>没有用的东西:mei you yong de dong xi</mandarin> it's like legit it's not even cannot even consider <mandarin>基础:ji chu</mandarin> it's like fucking useless stuff that everyone like, err it's like general knowledge that I feel like everyone should know, ya then I feel like I will just be wasting the credit I should just use the <mandarin>那个钱:na ge qian</mandarin> right and go buy Udemy with it


I I don't know ah I know which is more worth I still thinking


no but, [orh] no <mandarin>那那个我知道:na na ge wo zhi dao</mandarin> I I know about that but then like


I thought, err, the hundred sixty dollars we pay for our E prep credits <mandarin>的要钱:de yao qian</mandarin> right I thought it will be like it unlocks all the courses


, oh, okay ah but


, no I feel like even if the certificates are not recognized right if you got like five or six of <mandarin>那些那些词:nei xie nei xie ci</mandarin> right they can add up together then you can just show


then is like the the stuff they teach right it seems pretty legit like <mandarin>有用的:you yong de</mandarin> I feel like <mandarin>以后:yi hou</mandarin> right the future right, err the things I learn from it right I may be able to use it but it's just the syllabus right I don't know actually whether it's useful


are you still there or did you like disconnect, cause I see, a, frozen image, are you moving


wait okay then in that case no no no it's okay then I I say first ah cause I I will I scared right <mandarin>我害怕:wo hai pa</mandarin> right, like cause you moving right now right you cannot record your own voice accurately so I will just use my voice to record first ah


!aiya! <mandarin>我没有听我没有听:wo mei you ting wo mei you ting</mandarin> uh I will never pause it you also never pause right, ya, better connection


no lah is now now now that you mention you right <mandarin>你讲话的时候:ni jiang hua de shi hou</mandarin> right <mandarin>没有我不需要等几秒:mei you wo bu xu yao deng ji miao</mandarin> then I'll hear your voice is like, it's quite instantaneous now if I see your mouth move right I can hear your <mandarin>声音:sheng yin</mandarin> that's right err, that's right that's right


but you can't look at this, !woo!, fucking sex bro, that's why I I don't need to buy a gaming laptop, for uni I will just play this in uni I in hall I bought others to play


cos I asked my friend right he pay like every semester, whereas I see NTU right like they say <mandarin>每个月:mei ge yue</mandarin> right I need to <mandarin>还两百多块:hai liang bai duo kuai</mandarin> for like a


double room like I share with someone, no I I I wanted to stay in like like NTU lah <mandarin>我住在那个他们的:wo zhu zai na ge ta men de</mandarin> hall but then, like got two things that are like stopping me from doing it first of all <mandarin>钱:qian</mandarin> it's it's quite quite expensive, then second of all right I don't know whether I can find someone to like stay with


I don't want to <mandarin>跟陌生人住:gen mo sheng ren zhu</mandarin> I want to stay with my friend, oh ya are you going to stay with ivan, then I can I share with kelvin already kelvin say err like, err what's that ah he say that


he that's why he apply for hall right with #kai xing# right <mandarin>他们两个:ta men liang ge</mandarin> right <mandarin>在它纸上:zai ta zhi shang</mandarin> ah put each other's name


ya, oh uh I think johnathan uh want to go stay with his friend


it's like cutting lor, can you hear me, okay ah right now right, I guess I'll be


okay I can see you move now wait let me let me, swap to my mobile data then, wait the the voice recorder doesn't use


ya cause just now my my wifi I see it drop to one bar like, but now I use laptop right <mandarin>我用:wo yong</mandarin> wiifi, , oh okay so we are both like <mandarin>安静安静:an jing an jing</mandarin> for that few seconds ah


I know lah we just we just talk ya we just talk longer than an hour, ,


oh I I probably need to I'll I'll probably gonna ask my JC friends [orh] but , why so many of them going NUS like <mandarin>一个两个都是去:yi ge liang ge dou shi qu</mandarin> NUS <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> what the, it's like for like for, (hmm)


(uh huh), , ah


!whoa!, wait NTU <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> business school, ya


I don't think so I I like just that's why it's my second degree it's like, yo I'm gonna drop you man if I start dying or else I see my grades <mandarin>掉下来:diao xia lai</mandarin> right I'll be like okay that's not that's not the only thing I'll drop I'll fucking drop you next business


, actually I I also don't know eh but I I see com science as my main my main degree ah like who would see business as their main degree when you're com science, right


wait <mandarin>那个是你旧的:na ge shi ni jiu de</mandarin> course right like you change already right now when when when did you change I when did you change you apply this year again ah, this year, oh, but why why you change though this year got like more competition sia


oh but you got the course you want right, is it, is it the course you want


oh, NUS right now right you are studying computer science also, is it [orh] data analytics, [orh] , then eh but I a bit Sian eh so many of you guys at NUS


(ugh) that's why if I in NUS I can stay with #wen kai# or something


what the hell, , but I don't, they like non existent sia like like


eh cannot count all the female friends already cause they two years ahead of us, only left the the male friends then like almost everyone I talk to NUS sia, like NS I talk to K J <mandarin>你什么学校:ni shen me xue xiao</mandarin> [orh] NUS, then M E C <mandarin>你什么学校:ni shen me xue xiao</mandarin> NUS I was like okay oh but #wei quan# NTU

I thought like just talking about general <mandarin>朋友:peng you</mandarin> , that's not what I meant I never, no okay don don want okay the thing is right I not sure johnathan wants to stay with


but johnathan I cannot remember, ya I don't have arrangement, , oh , eh why why everyone go everyone going and NUS sia


boo eh, eh but the funny the funny thing is right uh uh NTU's computer science is better than NUS one eh, but like the cut off for our year right is lower than NUS one eh, I feel like


they didn't they didn't I rather just go hop NUS


maybe we we need to go beyond one hour one, would be safer exactly is too, too <mandarin>不妥当:bu tuo dang</mandarin> lah it's not, maybe like <mandarin>多十分钟这样:duo shi fen zhong zhe yang</mandarin> lah I feel like that's quite safe and


quite good already honestly, , ya I can see your whole body, I don't know how your I don't how your background looks let me see maybe I can add one too did you choose virtual background


video filters [orh] virtual background cannot add your own ah, damn, what you add ah video filters is it


oh it's some other things like no but I don't see anything eh there's no add sign there's no, what it's just virtual background, [orh] the plus on the top right oh okay I see it


let me see AEV ah, wait ah wait ah let me click, let me click to see to cause right now I'm looking at, oh wait nevermind it's the the thing blocking okay nevermind I just I just quickly <mandarin>选:xuan</mandarin> choose a, random <mandarin>照片:zhao pian</mandarin> right then then I can see what what what what what is in front of me


err <mandarin>你等等一下:ni deng deng yi xia</mandarin> ah #chotto matte#


I have no idea, oh damn ya it's actually quite cool, !wah! eh eh ya that's pretty dope ya okay let me see what's yours, AEV, damn wait that one singapore's AEV meh doesn't look like our eh


(mmhmm)


ya, eh <mandarin>我们的:wo men de</mandarin> shirt leh what happened to the shirt


oh right right [orh] ya then why why <mandarin>他没有:ta mei you</mandarin> why why he never <mandarin>亲手给我们:qin shou gei wo men</mandarin> I thought he will like just, who just got back, jasmond ah, you know the the shirt excel file is I help him type one


it's like one day right while I'm at home right uh on my and right he just Whatsapp me right and like tell me like oh


then he ask me to key in all the sizes for him, ya jasmond ask me to do, so I was like, so I was like eh I spend my time to do it right so where the fuck is my shirt


[orh] the logo right, use like the mel mel T shirt prints right I saw them on the intern S G eh looking for interns also eh like


like I <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> I am like I'm seeing I'm looking there and like oh my god the sense, err ya I'm go thursday I'm going to go for the like uh my BMT friend <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> the interview


then afterwards <mandarin>拜五:bai wu</mandarin> right I'll go for the one that, like I was damn straight I was like I was like <mandarin>下午的时候:xia wu de shi hou</mandarin> right I was fixing my printer trying to make it work, cause the thursday interview guy ask me to bring my resume over, but then I print I try to fix it and then I I print ah it's still got <mandarin>那黑色的线:na hei se de xian</mandarin> across it so I I fuck it I'm just going to bring it like that Bopian already


then like while I was fixing right <mandarin>突然:tu ran</mandarin> my phone rang then I pick up the call right !wow!, the guy just tell me oh this is #xuan yi# right I am mister Ng then I was like what the fuck you mean I am mister Ng I I thought he was saying, cause my surname Ng mah then I thought he like like, he's like like saying <mandarin>你是不是:ni shi bu shi</mandarin> mister Ng then I like uh no <mandarin>我是:wo shi</mandarin> mister Ng then I like oh okay okay


then he suddenly tell me right oh I uh I I received a application, to be an intern at blah blah blah blah blah then he just, err like <mandarin>给我一个很很短的介绍:gei wo yi ge hen hen duan de jie shao</mandarin> like oh what what can I expect to learn, err from the the interview


err you know what interview what I can I expect to learn from the internship and then uh that kind of stuff lah then ask me whether uh which day I'm free to go down, then I feel like between the two right I don't mind either, but I am slightly bias towards the one I got cause like


err, it is AIA, got a Wikipedia page so it's not as sus, I feel I feel <mandarin>害怕:hai pa</mandarin> about like the other one I a bit scared about the other one, so that's the first reason ya but the other one is two thousand eh two thousand allowance


so I uh okay the end of this thing right <mandarin>他是说:ta shi shuo</mandarin> A err B N <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> advisory but then, when he ask me to go interview right he so he ask me to go the AIA uh office


then I was like oh okay that's AIA, then I don't want to, act stupid ah I don't want to be like err is this AIA no I don't want to be stupid lah


so I was like I just assume that he's he's from AIA ah so that one more legit and then I feel like if I put on my portfolio right looks damn good, but the the the caveat right like the the downside right is <mandarin>少五百块:shao wu bai kuai</mandarin> lah, the allowance right they say is from one point five K at first I thought like


A E AEG one right


the AEG one right is uh <mandarin>两千:liang qian</mandarin> ah two thousand, ya, ya that's why but then like, I don't I don't really I don't like it as much cause it has #tanjong pagar# whereas the current one right, is like asking me to go somerset which I feel like


still okay still okay cause I can apply for uh M R MRT concession pass, then I just <mandarin>每天搭:mei tian da</mandarin> MRT right <mandarin>我走回家:wo zou hui jia</mandarin> lor, cause ah otherwise right I need to <mandarin>花多:hua duo</mandarin> ninety cents right for that that bus trip everytime like once in a while I think okay ah


but then like if I spend forty five dollars right on a MRT pass right then might as well just just save more lah transport fucking ex bro


everytime you tap right like you go for one point A to point B right, from your house right to


or is it like


, okay then <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> plug in <mandarin>我们的:wo men de</mandarin> ear piece


okay I think


!wah! steady lah okay okay clear clear okay clear clear clear, all good all good


list lah


[orh], if I can no need to work <mandarin>我是不要做工的:wo shi bu yao zuo gong de</mandarin> lah but then <mandarin>你可以不要做工:ni ke yi bu yao zuo gong</mandarin> meh <mandarin>你一定要做工作的:ni yi ding yao zuo gong zuo de</mandarin> what


that's true that's true


(mmhmm)


but then right, there is still a lot to improve on so so for example let's say like <mandarin>你刚刚你刚刚讲的:ni gang gang ni gang gang jiang de</mandarin> lah like fix <mandarin>这些:zhe xie</mandarin> pipe <mandarin>或者是:huo zhe shi</mandarin> err <mandarin>你装修屋子这些:ni zhuang xiu wu zi zhe xie</mandarin> like all these right you no matter what you need to have the human touch <mandarin>你一定要人力去摸:ni yi ding yao ren li qu mo</mandarin> err <mandarin>人力去:ren li qu</mandarin> err


then <mandarin>你才可以:ni cai ke yi</mandarin> err, err how to say, err, create the the result that you want lah, ya, but then again <mandarin>如果我们不要讲:ru guo wo men bu yao jiang</mandarin> renovation <mandarin>如果我们不要讲:ru guo wo men bu yao jiang</mandarin> err


err fixing pipe or like try to do those manual work <mandarin>我是觉得:wo shi jue de</mandarin> like technology wise <mandarin>我们单单用电:wo men dan dan yong dian</mandarin> err let's say, err, something to do with computer lah <mandarin>好像我们现在:hao xiang wo men xian zai</mandarin> record voice


ya, right right right


oh ya that's true


Youtube


static ah, [orh] <mandarin>等一下:deng yi xia</mandarin> ah, ya lah but <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> static <mandarin>是你听到又不是那个电话听到:shi ni ting dao you bu shi na ge dian hua ting dao</mandarin> so never mind one what


, okay lah but <mandarin>讲真的:jiang zhen de</mandarin> at the end of the day <mandarin>你在做工你你:ni zai zuo gong ni ni</mandarin> err your workplace right, at the end of the day <mandarin>你还是要自己去:ni hai shi yao zi ji qu</mandarin> code <mandarin>你还是要自己去:ni hai shi yao zi ji qu</mandarin> analyse <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> data


but then


err <mandarin>做那个:zuo na ge</mandarin> setting and


then record relevant data, ya


like <mandarin>你现在你看你的电话:ni xian zai ni kan ni de dian hua</mandarin> hor <mandarin>你讲话的时候如果太大声的话他有一个:ni jiang hua de shi hou ru guo tai da sheng de hua ta you yi ge</mandarin> red line


[orh] <mandarin>有的话:you de hua</mandarin> then <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> disqualify, no lah as in I think <mandarin>一个两个不用紧:yi ge liang ge bu yong jin</mandarin> but then let's say


!huh! <mandarin>你的全部都是:ni de quan bu dou shi</mandarin> red ah, oh shit <EX1>nigga</EX1> <mandarin>刚才不是跟讲要读了:gang cai bu shi gen jiang yao du le</mandarin> err I think never mind lah <mandarin>因为现在我们讲话:yin wei xian zai wo men jiang hua</mandarin> it's still recording then only four only fourteen minutes mah


piece together lah then <mandarin>那些:na xie</mandarin> red lines <mandarin>的他可能会自己拿出来:de ta ke neng hui zi ji na chu lai</mandarin> lor then we don't have to like go and do it for them lah, ya
