ya lor anyway right, recently I watch a documentary and I think like bill gates is my <mandarin>新偶像:xin ou xiang</mandarin> eh, he hor eh I didn't know about this until I watched the documentary, bill gate has been working on like producing clean energy and water for the developing country leh


he spend so much time effort and money on it leh and there are some results now like, okay and the prototypes of for the like for the machines, were in china like a few years back then it everything was like going well until the trade war started


for nothing


uh I think, then I think <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> climate change will also be a main contributing factor, because like


then plus all those irresponsible act by the people by the human, and now already a lot of animals becoming extinct because of us leh because of the stupid humans all our irresponsible actions


and human are just choosing to protect those that the value like the panda or those that have medicine, medicinal value or those that they they think they're cute


ya lor <mandarin>真的:zhen de</mandarin> it's very scary it's too infectious already I don't think anyone in the world has expected this to be so bad, now the COVID death death number death toll already hitting like what


at the start of this thing [orh] <mandarin>我都没有想过会这样多人死:wo dou mei you xiang guo hui zhe yang duo ren si</mandarin> lor, now is <mandarin>什么年代:shen me nian dai</mandarin> already two thousand twenty leh it's not like what, the nineteen or twenty sanctuary <mandarin>那时候中国刚刚开始的时候:na shi hou zhong guo gang gang kai shi de shi hou</mandarin> hor <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> like <mandarin>几百个人死几百个人死:ji bai ge ren si ji bai ge ren si</mandarin> hor then <mandarin>我就以为很惨了:wo jiu yi wei hen can le</mandarin> leh <mandarin>我就:wo jiu</mandarin> like everyday I watch the new I was so sad leh <mandarin>为什么今天就有几十个人死:wei shen me jin tian jiu you ji shi ge ren si</mandarin> because of this virus I was so sad I even teared watching the news leh then in the end after everything they <mandarin>他们算好了:ta men suan hao le</mandarin> in the world


like those Angmoh country those country with like what, what they say like the best healthcare system in the world, their numbers are so much higher like, thousands and millions so scary


ya lor this so bad leh, and I think like it'll be quite some time before, we get to travel to other countries lor like !wah!, I I saw the news like don't know twenty twenty four or what before all, travel can resume like to the like pre-COVID COVID times


luckily before this virus I visited china before all this started, I went, during I think, early december ah then this happen


ah ah Wuhan


uh I went to Guangzhou because my friend wants to see like those <mandarin>诗情画意古代的:shi qing hua yi gu dai de</mandarin> architect like those


but actually when I went there right it's very <mandarin>现代化:xian dai hua</mandarin> already is like, it's like a <mandarin>城市:cheng shi</mandarin> already like other countries other cities in china and every part of the world, those <mandarin>古代:gu dai</mandarin> areas are actually, just for show lor just for the tourist they're actually preserved


for , for the for preserved, for the purpose of letting the tourist and the locals visit


!wah! <mandarin>厉害厉害:li hai li hai</mandarin> I don't think I can do this I really hate like uneven steps and like unpredictable like uh road ahead, anyway <mandarin>你哪里爬得完那个万里长城万里:ni na li pa de wan na ge wan li chang cheng wan li</mandarin> leh <mandarin>很像要爬:hen xiang yao pa</mandarin> like I think <mandarin>几天几夜:ji tian ji ye</mandarin> or <mandarin>几个礼拜才爬得完:ji ge li bai cai pa de wan</mandarin> lor


for you to


then <mandarin>快点上完:kuai dian shang wan</mandarin> okay, so <mandarin>她就讲:ta jiu jiang</mandarin> [orh] <mandarin>我不要去:wo bu yao qu</mandarin> china <mandarin>我不要去:wo bu yao qu</mandarin> china, then <mandarin>我就讲那边的:wo jiu jiang na bian de</mandarin> like


condition over there, but anyway <mandarin>上次:shang ci</mandarin> that time and when I, want to go right when before I decided to go I also research on the toilet and hygiene issues because I think toilet is like a very important factor to consider


when going overseas, but actually right


yeah they have what, Wechat pay and Alipay and they don't only have it for locals eh they also have it for tourists, that time I went when I went to china I used Alipay for my trip there really really convenient you don't need to bring your purse for the


you can use this to pay like even at those <mandarin>路边摊:lu bian tan</mandarin> for like proper retail shop for transport, to pay at restaurants it's like you can use it for anything so convenient eh and I think ya they are the first in the world to be using five g


and I wonder when we will have all these like high tech things in singapore


oh !wah! japan I I think I have been there only once, I went with my friend for a work trip then we extended for a week, to sight see a bit, I went to Hokkaido that time and I think, the views are really nice lah


but it's the food that really left me a deep impression, I really really like the what Hokkaido fresh milk there it's different from those milk that we get from NTUC those HL Marigold, it's really nice but it's so expensive in singapore leh


three four dollars for a small packet of fresh milk, and hor the ramen ah there is really really nice also, it's like I cannot find this in singapore I I have never tried such delicious ramen in singapore before


but, they're famous for their sashimi also but I I don't take raw food lor so <mandarin>可惜:ke xi</mandarin> cannot enjoy the food


[orh] [orh] the potato sticks ah, okay uh nice nice that one, I always buy that time when I went right I also bought a lot for my relative and friends I think this is like very popular what singaporeans will like I saw it on the, uh singapore and the blog people also bought a lot of that


anyway the the where the don-don-donki also sell a lot of japanese product right


in the air the the atmosphere inside the package will change and it'll change it's taste a bit, anyway that time my cousin in-law right, she ordered like, some tapioca chips from taiwan online it's like a different kind of of like it's different from our tapioca chips it's like there's some sugar coating on it


and anyway


just now you say got ramen right where is the ramen, I really, feel like eating ramen now maybe you should plan an outing with the girls to try it


and #tiong bahru# ah is it near where we used to work


K Onz since we're at the topic of dining, I have a interesting that question that came across then I wanna ask you, K, if like, for the rest of your life right, there's only one dish that you can eat


what would it be


!wah! nice seems like you really like your hotpot ha, and, that time I try to make the <mandarin>虾滑:xia hua</mandarin> at home and it was a complete disaster it tastes nothing like <mandarin>虾滑:xia hua</mandarin> but hotpot hor


you must be beware of the MSG and the salt content quite high, anyway for me, one dish ah quite difficult to choose leh, but I think


it will be


and got like <mandarin>本地的风味:ben di de feng wei</mandarin> mah the taste of singapore


really difficult to cultivate like healthier dining habits when eating out lor how to eat healthy tell me all this


all these hawker they also don't support and the environment also not supportive, !wah!


I cannot cook lah but, I got try to learn lor I have been trying to learn cooking from my mother <mandarin>可是:ke shi</mandarin> I don't know lah <mandarin>真的没有天赋:zhen de mei you tian fu</mandarin> lor, I have no common sense it's in cooking lor then everytime I say I want to cook right then nobody will want to eat they will say !hey! I'm not eating dinner I'm not eating dinner


then sometimes then and when I try right my mother will like be stunned what are you doing then feel that is very ridiculous, I just have no common sense


ya lah it's like, I some like <mandarin>那个食物你要煮熟:na ge shi wu ni yao zhu shou</mandarin> mah then <mandarin>这个不可以参这个:zhe ge bu ke yi can zhe ge</mandarin> I sometimes like serve uncook food to my family or have like very weird pairing for food


[orh], I like <mandarin>水煮:shui zhu</mandarin> my favourite kind of vegetables is actually water boiled vegetables easy healthier, and nicer what I don't appreciate all the seasoning added to the to the vegetables also, anyway it's very difficult for me to like


leave my house like <mandarin>大费周章:da fei zhou zhang</mandarin> just to Dabao a food, so <mandarin>麻烦:ma fan</mandarin> leh and I I don't have any food, any market or any hawker centre near my house, I I don't think I have even like left my house to Dabao


like even once like in the whole of my life, if I'm alone and home right I will just cook like anything, like uh #maggie mee# or what, and anyway that time right I told my friend okay when she graduates because she was that time she was feeling quite down she like she thinks that she cannot


she will not be able to do well for exam so I told her like when you graduate I will cook for her a meal as a reward, but after so many years it never came, I have been practicing that time but it was too bad


then I never had the confidence to like really cook a meal for her, then <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> leh if like if your future husband likes your likes you to cook will be willing to cook for him


[orh] <mandarin>是这个:shi zhe ge</mandarin> but anyway, like, all like fried food is not good lor no matter what lah just that they <mandarin>从用:cong yong</mandarin> is like even worse, and ya <mandarin>我真的不喜欢我妈妈在家里炸东西:wo zhen de bu xi huan wo ma ma zai jia li zha dong xi</mandarin> it's like the whole place is so oily and my kitchen is like


a bit like open concept so it will like go out to the kitchen and would go out to the living room and dining table and everywhere, but have uh do you have a air fryer at home


[orh], you know that day hor I tried baking, I tried to bake a brownie that day, and you know what cannot cook cannot bake also it is quite it was quite a disaster


I think I didn't set the temperature well lor then <mandarin>上面:shang mian</mandarin> #chao ta# then <mandarin>下面不熟:xia mian bu shou</mandarin> then


[orh] I think because right the size of the mould that I use was different lor that's why it didn't came it didn't come out right, but I try to learn baking right because my mom can bake also


then hor anyway the real reason is because right, I I saw online the news that some, really good bakers they earn quite good money from their products leh, quite cool have you ever thought of selling your mum's your mum bakes


[orh], you know right I think the <mandarin>心情好:xin qing hao</mandarin> and the <mandarin>东西不好吃:dong xi bu hao chi</mandarin> right might be real leh you cannot don't believe because right, my mum bakes <mandarin>发糕:fa gao</mandarin> right, then she always tell me, bake <mandarin>发糕的时候:fa gao de shi hou</mandarin> hor <mandarin>你不可以乱讲话的:ni bu ke yi luan jiang hua de</mandarin> leh then that time I just like I don't I don't care mah


so I just okay, I cannot she say cannot say what <mandarin>不发不发:bu fa bu fa</mandarin> then I said like something else then I said like something along this line then really never <mandarin>发:fa</mandarin> eh the <mandarin>发糕:fa gao</mandarin> it didn't open out, so ya really not easy lor no wonder those famous baker hor can sell their bakes for so so expensive leh


there's one at orchard, you must pre-order like a week before, then hor so expensive eh one small piece they sell for eight nine dollars eh, uh <mandarin>这么多人还要去排队去买:zhe me duo ren hai yao qu pai dui qu mai</mandarin> leh


then <mandarin>那么贵还不一定买得到:na me gui hai bu yi ding mai de dao</mandarin> and still got one recently one right I saw that right the brownie hor need to <mandarin>要等:yao deng</mandarin> like <mandarin>一年多才拿得到:yi nian duo cai na de dao</mandarin> leh <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> order


[orh] heh, ya I love Angmoh desserts although it's very expensive so I can only order and share with my friends or family and the the I know the egg tart that you're talking about it's the #tai chung# egg tart right the one from hong kong


ya the pandan quite <mandarin>香:xiang</mandarin> I think I I'm not really a fan of egg tart


but I I I really think their tart is, is not bad, you have the the tart is very <mandarin>香:xiang</mandarin> the egg also very <mandarin>香:xiang</mandarin> and perfect Combi


it's like the <mandarin>泡泡茶:pao pao cha</mandarin> lor so many people, I think it's like has become a staple for many singaporeans like, , I they're addicted to the bubble tea already, are you still drinking bubble tea or are there any new bubble tea that you've recently tried


oh, nice what, what <mandarin>魅力:mei li</mandarin> does this bubble tea have for you to not drink other bubble tea for you to give up all the other flavours for this

nothing, no benefits ah going to school, truth be told ah like, especially cause of COVID [kan], then, HBL assignments, step


step, it's like different league ah kirakan different league, but actual school itself, actually to be honest okay ah, there's lesser people


okay it's decent but outdoor activities S&W, all this, boring as hell everybody must maintain one meter if you doing some sports activity, three metres cause tahu lah heavy breathing


for real for real dia macam if, 'cause, yes true but you must still keep your safe distancing measure especially kalau if kau heavy breathing three metre [jer], three metre

, earning


yes, a'ah, yeah it's true especially in Singapore lah to be honest


that's why it's better if you migrate lah, exactly that's why not many people migrate to Malaysia already, aha that one is uh takpe lah


it is what it is yeah, unusual superpower eh


any superpower, okay ah, I mean not that I'm already not invisible lah to be honest but it's okay lah, think of all the things I could get away with ah

based on experience ah just saying, okay, free, !huh!, okay one thing that I wish was free


err, it'll be hard ah, transport, just free transport for everybody, it would cost a lot of but then the thing about that is that


a lot of people will take more transport then it will be over congested, then they will need to be make more and make more then the space especially kat Singapore [kan] kitanya country small, unless other places but I've heard like some other countries also like actually provide free transport

seriously ah, okay, okay we don't talk about HBL lah eh, HBL is err, , that's yes correct that's the main reason why I left


(uh huh), ah right, that's the thing ah


, , even, but government allow sport activity what


ah, so I call this guy he's known for speaking ah good malay


uh to mix we always mix, ah, a'ah it's very standard ah


err okay so three wishes, I would wish, to have err, army style discipline, okay


because, correct but it takes a lot of work, and you know me I'm a very lazy person, okay okay okay lah let's stop like unrealistic not unrealistic but


things which are not reachable our wishes okay, I would wish, oh my god, you know what, okay next question


if you drop everything to follow your dreams what would you risk


why do you like what what what were your dreams or what are your dreams, ya can can, ah okay okay


so, let me guess kau kene kerja for, very hard for maybe a few years before you can actually like you know, settle down relax there K dah settled, something like that, ah alright alright alright alright I understand I understand


me, basically right if I were to follow my dreams, I would drop my err future lah, basically my livelihood


because that K basically I really want to, ah be a professional sports player, okay, (uh huh), a professional sports player maybe soccer football K we talk about soccer lah cause, they have very good prospect in a sense


err but the thing is if at this age I were to like you know try, maybe I'll take one to two years mean at least twenty plus then I'll be in a professional team, but in the meantime who's gonna pay for my livelihood


for example if I made it big who's gonna before I make it big who's gonna pay for my part maybe I want play in a England EPL who gonna pay for my flight there accommodation food, ah so before that success I have to


the risk basically my parents money lah, ah,


ya that that's another thing, because, okay let's not talk into specific lah but, Singapore soccer is a no no lah


all macam Haziq, ah that's a bit unrealistic the passion is uh actually is that I understand I used to have that passion but to be realistic and have a livelihood in Singapore using that kind of err


career pathway so called, it is not realistic to have a easy life lah, ah, alright, sorry, ah true true Malaysia pay better


, ah but then nak cakap dorang bayar ke tak tu lain cerita lah, but I mean it is what it is, yeah, alright


next question if you have any unusual superpower what would it be, ya basically any superpower ah


, but why though


police police are you all hearing this police , me I would love to teleport ah, anywhere and everywhere, !wah! so I don't have to think about being late


so I don't have to pay for transport, actually basically it's about being late lah I don't want to be late lah, ya so for example ah, my parents ask me to be home by seven


six fifty nine, if possible at six fifty nine point fifty nine


, no, I mean it looks, interesting honestly it looks interesting, but I am watching a more


not realistic more historical drama, basically I'm I'm watching ah, historical turkish drama so basically before how they found turkish the ottoman empire right how to ottoman empire started


this is how this is the drama about lah, ah


it is an emotional story, sad, but, no it's a series series


but the first two seasons super draining, super draining cause they go through torture after torture after torture, yeah, (hmm)


okay let's see, if you found a time capsule from yourself ten years ago, what would be inside, wait what, if


okay I I don't understand this question do you, if you could turn back time, oh


I think they should put, if you could turn back them where would you go to, that will be an easy answer, I will turn back to


primary four, why, because basically I got first in class ah in primary three right, okay, it was a fluke I didn't study and it was a super fluke seriously


so I got first in class so I got confident so sorry primary five primary five, so primary four I was like you know competing with this guy that guy macam the race to become first in class ah, then I got first in class again in primary four you know, then sekali come to primary five dah kerek [kan] two years in a row ah don't need study ah Lepak ah


it's time to blend in because I I won't I didn't blend blend in well err in primary school, ah because, , how to say eh, I might have been a little bit of a smart alec


so people generally disliked me actually, yup, , no lah I mean that that's the problem ah because, back then


if I didn't I hadn't had this issue and I didn't I wasn't arrogant, I wouldn't have err you know, instead of the okay sekarang kita dah first in class eh kita focus [jer] how to be best in the cohort, I was like there are these people dislike me I want to blend in with them


so aku start bergaul dengan dorang be like them, Lepak kat luar lah ah tak belajar after PSLE oral, ah prank orang punya rumah ketuk pintu lari you know


you knock the door get out of the staircase go down, ah play soccer at the void deck all lah so, I will change my mindset lah but then without this the the thing is the thing about life right


it wouldn't us in the future, so that's the thing I'm like if I could turn back time would I turn back time, but if this didn't happen I wouldn't be like this you know what I mean


yes definitely, because, I hate this ah cliche phrase, but as annoying and cliche and you know like jijik as it is, it's true ah what doesn't kill you makes you stronger


I mean basically that song was over how do you say over hyped, like you know for example ah that song is good, but then a lot of people start to sing it before you even get to hear it is like !wah!


I'm not gonna listen to it because people make it sound so annoying for example, I still remember this song payphone, it was a famous song it was not bad of a song ah [kan] maroon five is one of the, yeah one of the good guys


but because of people around like payphone I'm like no I'm not gonna listen to it, ah


what's worse is you hate a song, like you are that early not early founders ah basically before other people hear and it's overhyped you hear this, then people start eh you know this song or not but you are thinking these songs like two three weeks ago


but then after two three weeks then people start to hype it like this song ah, old town road, so, I think I've not formerly I was I listen to it because ah there was this video playing that song ah so like oh not bad the the the song is quite catchy okay


I go search old town road K ah I put it in my playlist for like one two weeks, I removed from my playlist then people start telling me about this song I'm like, it's in my heart I'm like excuse me, you know but I'm like oh ya eh nice song nice song ah


so it's damn annoying ah actually, please please please don't talk about our campus radio


I'm I'm glad he didn't join, okay lah okay lah we cannot throw shades lah okay let's not throw shades alright


, yeah, okay we have a very good question here, what is the one thing that you wish was free


yeah, make sense


yeah precisely, yeah, you know what's worse actually, transport is another matter I feel what needs to be free is healthcare


for those who can't afford it, yeah, because you know, , some countries let's not name them, the price, is horrible


and, some countries ah will want you to pay first before the surgery happen imagine right a heart surgery, critical surgery, some country ah they you need to pay first know walaupun berapa critical apa dah nazak ke pe you need to pay first before the surgery happen


, ya, precisely,


, that's a sensitive uh topic, okay, let's see next question eh, if humans no longer need to work to survive what would we do very good question


ya we K basically right, what you're trying to say here is like so called, like dulu punya time ah


for K for example orang dulu we they can have chicken they can have cows and all that, so their work is technically just taking care of their their herds lah


so in return they get is, food, correct, so actually if you think about it, you don't need to work, you have a few cow sheep chicken, rice


all yours, what do you need to worry about, think about it what do human need, food water air


precisely, but because of the modernisation of, the world, people find a need ah okay I want a


iphone, because it's the best, and ah okay basically iphone is good lah those who have it is good but I want a latest iphone because a new one just came out I wanna keep up with the trend, shirt let's spend five thousand dollars on a piece of shirt


which I can get for ten dollars at #pasar malam#, and then, shoe uh twenty thousand lah, you know ah Off-white with Gucci and maybe Versace, yeah, my pants I would spend about two thousand dollars because the materials you know the material actually


I also don't know what the material but it costs two thousand means it's good right, you know something, my friend was talking about someone who


ah bought a very expensive car lah, uh so recently so I was like, okay, so, they are like eh you know this this and this bought this and this I'm like oh okay so, because like


come on think about it think about it you buy a fast car, in Singapore how fast you wanna go, two hundred kilometre power, you buy something not to make full use of it, this will happen when you got too much money lah, you want to show off


and all, give me their money lah I can put to better use , , okay oh yes sorry


, uh


but people just live to complicate it


ah, so I guess this is the challenges in life you have to face lah, that's harsh but, you gotta do what you gonna do lah right


alright next question, oh this is a good question what everyday activity would be a torture if you had to do it for eight hours straight


everyday activity lah bukan kerja ke apa macam K for me, for me eating, like, if I'm full, and I don't want to waste food, it is a torture for me


so imagine have to do it for eight hours oh my god, oh my god I can't imagine it, I think that's the best tortures someone can give me, yeah


I mean K, the thing is yes there are good foods and like for example if a food is good I can eat four times, but, if the food is mediocre one time is enough but even if I were to eat a very nice food right


and what jelak sama [jer] lah, yeah, ya so like, like they say ah everything in moderation is good


no that was that is to, do a certain, ya so that's understandable


I guess so I was dreaming this, you were at the table the setting was different lah, but the shop and what they sell is is correct, so basically I went to queue for guess guess, what would I buy


yes burger, I was dreaming of the burger but I was thinking the burger in the dream, so I'm like eh so there's now two shops eh


the most important thing in a food, is the look, if I were to try new food lah outside food the look is so important,


and, , is that even a question, of course I would come unless I got NS ah


hopefully, oh you know what I just want NS to come lah, , next month, yeah, if you are wondering why I'm looking at the right right


like you know I'm not looking here because basically the main screen is here but you are at the second screen, err oh okay okay oh okay okay, okay (hmm), oh okay what is the pettiest reason that you would like to dislike someone eh sorry sorry sorry


what is the pettiest reason that you would dislike someone, , face, same same same same same


yeah, but ya, I mean it's true but for me I I guess I guess in my opinion


I feel like I have a, some people just the face, it's like you know how they say a picture tells you a thousand words or thousand things yeah I guess I I implement that to people face ah


okay I wouldn't say expert because


err I mean if I say I'm an expert that will be bragging right, so tak ah so basically I can tell you two experiences in my life which I was wrong, first, okay the first one was the first was quite right lah


because, I see him I think he's like that we got close, then we our way then he is like that, so I guess in a way it's it's right but the one I'm wrong is you


your hair, it's your hair, your hair compliment your face when you first came in school, but come on lah it was like what blonde, err perang perang [kan], so actually !alamak! confirm mat rep eh fikir dia siapa sia


ah see ah this one ah ITE, see a lot of her classmates like that already, but when I got to know you all you all are the best people in ITE, , you have to admit ah, as strenuous as three as our course is


we have the best people, in our course yes


but compared to other course compared to other course we are like, pretty little rascals


ah the HOD, eh don't do this lah, you know what I mean you are like come on lah you know what, guys you will get caught next time, but Kena our HOD, you wanna get expelled is it


, but did you do it


yes, I knew it, but I mean for you twenty classes or twenty opportunities to look for the right one


, , no comments


okay, let's see, what is the pet sorry we went through that already okay, if you can instantly master three new skills what would that be, what would they be


I, , for me, mike ross


yes photographic at absolute best memory, everything I hear everything I see is in my head, I want to that kind of memory,


can ah but how long want to train, yeah, that's first second is err, skill eh, what skill eh apa kita boleh buat let me see let me see


maths, ah I am good at cracking jokes, I already master that since I was like primary school so , but maths ah maths ah like you know people who need the calculator and like, you go shop then got a lot of uh discount this discount that interest this interest that


that is inevitable so like when they calculate I calculate it must tally so that they cannot cheat me ah, ah, I straight away you give me okay twenty percent of this with ten percent of that then minus zero point eight percent of this then you get this this this this this I want to have it in my head


, ya but not the maths that we use like you know what I mean, like depends depends depends, algebra would be used for those algebraic works


but plus minus times divide, yes, okay


it's good lah they give a few, so that we don't run out of things to talk about, okay did


okay wait let me search the meaning of this word retrospect, !alamak! cannot search ah, what is do you have any idea what's the meaning of retrospect, actually I heard but I don't know the meaning lah, K retrospect


a survey or review for past course of events oh basically, a remembrance of a past course of event, that you feel is funny but at that time is not funny, okay I got one


and terjumpa fabian, okay, so, that is my first time meeting fabian okay, you all told me he was scary he was this he was that, so he would I mean I didn't laugh but inside my heart I was laugh but after that when I leave the office I also laugh


but then it's not funny lah okay we skip class, then you know his uh dia punya cara marah macam mana [kan] see he will talk nicely then suddenly he shout, then you remember remember the joke, take out the ring take out the lanyard


put hand on our table look at both of us he always do that, ya ya ya ya, but if you think about it if you think about it is actually, a scolding ah a serious scolding ah, but


sometimes you gotta take, the silver lining of a bad situation right, I deserve the scolding, okay but, I gotta cheer myself up


ah, I mean, it's hard lah it's hard, yeah


damn but, oh my god I miss class, ninety percent of people I miss lah definitely, ninety percent, that that ten percent, you cannot talk about it lah eh let's not throw shade to people lah eh


but oh my god I miss our IFT class with, uh Ham boy, S&W, uh, you only spend time when ah, actually you only spend time when we going home so I miss going home with you lah, like that we really sit down and talk


ah, ah yes yes yes yes yes yes yes


I mean I was ah, I was always with cyprus and at that point of time I was like you know researching about laptops lah ni lah tu lah ni lah tu lah, ah, so I mean it it it comes in handy


but not every time lah, ah definitely adalah orang nak beli laptop so I can MS them like bombard them, ah, but


come on it was something super unexpected, but is the biggest reason is because, okay we were O level students correct, you were you were you were right you were O levels what okay what


is our true purpose of, graduating from secondary school for O levels student, like what is our so called rite, poly or JC correct, so okay lah, maybe O level we couldn't do well


because of certain subjects at maths science (ppc) I don't know what else okay, err, ya okay then you have to go to ITE okay, then from ITE where's where's the next destination


EAE, so aku macam oh my god, I when I never study I get this but when I study


I get zero point zero two, you know what I mean, but


K ah kalau gini dah tak boleh masuk poly [kan] what what's the point, ah, and I have better options ah I have better prospect so, obviously ah kita macam you know what, if I'm gonna go this way


but if I choose another way I got better potential so I did the right thing but was hard thing to do ah to leave you all, but do you know what made it easier


HBL, because I hated every moment of HBL, one week then I didn't come for another one week, ya macam is merepek bila kita kat sekolah dorang bagi kerja masih sikit [jer]


you know what I mean, but you don't push a big, lump sum of work to us just because we are free we are not


accustomed to that what you know what I mean, like giving, precisely I aku it is


so it it made me like oh you know what ah so tiring ah malas ah, ah tak leh ah tak leh ah, so, true lah true


yeah, I really busy but if you come I can make time for you because K basically right now I'm more free ah, cause I'm laying low a bit, ah I'm relaxing a bit, gathering myself for bigger things lah in the future


so you can actually come down


three more right, , alright alright I I will look forward I will look forward then JB will be here for, !huh!


fifteen minutes fifteen ah serious expressway


in Singapore you wanna rev come on lah, you throttle abit beep, Kena fine, why your apa engine so loud,


okay, let's see, okay okay okay, what would be the worst buy one get one free sale ever


let me think ah, it it seems good right


oh, I wanted to, like you know my friend buy then I get the free one lah


what happened, oh your wifi seems abit bad lah eh,


okay lah I think we go next question ah it's a good question, good looks or fit body what would you prefer, okay we we apply it to ourselves lah ah not to other people lah


what would you rather have, yes


, , okay kalau kau tanya aku this about


now I'm nineteen right maybe nine years ago, okay with me in my teens thirteen I mean I'm still my teens but, when I still interested in sports, definitely fit body, hundred percent, because I could go far, I really could go far but


like that lah this I guess this my fate lah, so if, in the past yeah fit body now ah, whatever god give me I'll take lah,


like uh whatever it is lah good looks fit body, but now I'm going to NS so I guess I have to choose fit body again lah, like know because IPPT, if they give us like pre IPPT before you masuk right


ah but oh my god you ask me to you ask me to run okay sit up manageable but I'm just not a upper upper body strength guy, that's why that's why like I don't play


hyper transport, and even if I do play right the roads I play are very, suit to my body lah like, okay for example kalau soccer we don't need upper body strength technically technically, we don't need upper body strength


Izzul kau jangan pass kau jangan shoot eh sorry sorry sorry, you don't pass don't shoot eh, don't pass, just defend the ball


because I'm the fastest guy in court, so it's annoying lah because, fastest, sometimes means the best but I'm the fastest but not the best


if you look at the oppunent team eh, the best is usually the fastest, ah but then you put, myself in my shoe you put yourself in my shoe I'm the fastest but I'm not the best in fact the worst ah offensively


ah, so, but I have to keep up with those uh because yeah basketball is technically new to me I started playing like what four years ago only and people have been playing since primary school, so my game IQ and dorang punya game IQ tak sama definitely they are better game sense than me


okay that's one, so I'm not exposed to, basketball as much as them so they can do things, and you tell me okay so just do this do this do that but then I still can't do it because I'm just not


used to it ah like I'm not exposed to it what, ah, yes, okay, there's one good question


actually not one good question I've been saying that for the past few questions, if you were to eat one dish


for the rest of your life, CD, , for me


for the rest of my life bro, frugal eh


the one near the bus stop to go to ITE, yes yes yes, super cheap super affordable bro I add extra chicken with K, I bought one plate, of a one set you know with the vegetable and all


add extra chicken add extra rice costs me less than, seven eight dollars, less than that no five six dollars you know, where you're gonna get in Singapore, your house lah because free what, right


oh NYP chicken rice for the win bro, funny ah you


nah, nah nah nah nah nah, poly is not my thing anymore studying is not my thing anymore !chey!, oh I mean you want to go there to eat chicken rice I will probably get scolded by my parents


but I don't mind, you know because uh you have to understand in Singapore susah nak dapat natural food even it comes to the most natural thing, chicken, beef


ah, correct so parents aku suka apa tau they like err, Kampung chicken they make sure it's from a, not say Kampung lah but you know Kampung means they bring it up naturally, ah it it it you don't have to worry about the


others lah, uh, correct correct, yes yes, so they are very particular when it comes to food because it's the basic survival what the basic survival need


eh, air bahasa melayu apa ah


O K S I


okay maybe it's oxygen, maybe ah I don't know it's been a long time K last time I I we use that was like primary six I think, yeah


what do you think of the COVID situation now


sometimes better is not enough right, then, ya !wah! I mean, true lah true


but you, you you know something that I wish they could implement in Singapore because of this COVID nineteen situation, every store


okay or at least those super crowded store, that people will go to, have a, uh system, so we don't have to queue and wait


what time they give they allow us to be there we'll be there, but be strict ah, we book from this time to this time exactly at that time you must leave, ah


correct, (mmhmm),


!wah!, yeah, you know what okay


no very simple, then we open, , like uh, only for pioneer generation lah, why not


yeah, correct or not if the old people are not a tech savvy enough okay they go, ah


must use the ah reservation booking, yeah, uh whether they have space or not and but come on ah


the, this is the problem right find solution lah, not run away or not just like you know what, I don't care, let's just open our shop we need to make money, this the thing about Singapore cause every single thing cause money


every single thing, of course every country but there are countries who ah


how to say handle this quite well very very well in fact, ya but, I mean , it is what it is lah ah, so we just have to take care of ourselves lah that's why you know ah like, honestly this phase two open my eyes a lot ah like


actually we don't have to go out always


ah but that is different thing but you know to go out every single day, you go out transport money, food money, shopping money, money money money, everything is money bro you wanna go here to here okay lah you never eat outside you bring food from home food food from home also cost money


you got out take transport also money, ah, correct, ah, , ya because K want to Lepak okay but


not outside you know what I mean like that's why I always invite you to come my house, ah, it is prone to have problems, ah kalau korang kat rumah aku ke apa like we just do our own things


like my neighbourhood is very peaceful so okay lah, nothing much, ah, no


(mmhmm), , seriously


then later when the number of cases spike then everyone panic so, no comments lah this kind of thing is very, just let let, let it be lah eh, we don't have much say but, okay lah I mean we'll just don't be those kind of people lah


but, ah, I don't appreciate it, seriously firework is overrated for me


like, okay, I could just create this using my computer, you know what I mean, but I it it's just me lah I don't appreciate it lah I appreciate doing I'm all for doing kind of than seeing kind of guy


like you bring me to the most beautiful country with the best place to sightsee I would appreciate, like you bring me to a country with the best theme park I would go, ah, correct correct


okay that's different lah that's different lah Bali nah, nah, but normal normal asia bro it's europe, or south america bro, okay lah if you talk realistically ah you want to go to europe also you have to go to the europe safe country lah Turkey


ya, they they handled the situation quite well, based on what I heard lah because you see ah like, U ah UK they are very big hit, Italy they have a very big hit all this macam tourist attraction punya tempat eh very big hit


ah so it's quite worrisome to go there ah, , greenland


no,


is it greenland or iceland ah that has no army, don't have army yeah one one one of this wait also one of this country don't have mosquito


I think it's greenland, because you see ah it's so err, precisely greenland got ice iceland is green


legit ah, oh oh oh oh oh, oh okay


, why


I don't know why didn't you apply for it, but it is still available ah still available lah, go for it bro go for it bro


in times of crisis we need, if you can get if you need help we have to, get whatever we can lah, but don't beg


yeah, ah yes yes yes, I off all the light, and my window is closed ya, I mean technically it's my sleeping time ah aku switch aku punya body clock


hundred three sixty degree, from always awake, I'm a morning person now


impossible right, I'm a morning person now bro, I made it I made it


, like sixty minute, oh, sixty mine is only fifty nine fifty seven okay lah I guess kita end the conversation now lah eh


[ah] we stop this then we see we will do the others together alright K three two one


okay can you hear, okay ya I put my earpiece back also already, hello, ya okay, oh ya we are not supposed to speak over each other


I think this is actually going to be the bigger challenge , , okay lah err, I had this okay so I was doing my training course [right] the one of


it's day, five out of six of the training course, and then , so there's this okay it it's a course called I don't actually know if I can say the course but anyway it's a training course that covers a lot about like


being a supervisor and like leadership in a hotel context [right] and then there's there's quite a lot of content and the err, we you there's quite quite a lot assessment as well so it's it's really like group work there's err one whole like report that we need to do and then


like so so the report [right] like it's it's called learning journal where you have to do it with three other people so there's one uncle uh one like older lady like forty year old and then one err, like okay he looks young but <mandarin>他应该有三十多岁吧:ta ying gai you san shi duo sui ba </mandarin> but like I just look at the LinkedIn I just went to stalk his LinkedIn


so, err ya lor then we need to finish this like fifteen page report and it's it's just kind of like a Q&A thing


and I finish my part already but then like we have to send it back to our trainer to take a look, ya and then he came back to us with like comments and then we are supposed to submit by midnight tonight, I'm a bit lazy to work on it like you to to clean up others people's mess basically speaking cause I feel like I'm carrying the whole team for the whole time


and talking a lot in like coordinating this and that because none of them are very very tech savvy, yeah I guess so as in I wasn't expecting him to be so not tech savvy it's not like he is not tech savvy also it's just that he doesn't bother to participate like


, thirty minutes [right] and then he doesn't he doesn't talk much he says like three sentences, then that's it eh


hello can you hear me , , ya so that's my that was my day I'm generally not paying that much attention to the class I was doing my painting my


the the paint by numbers thing, why, err


yes, yes so much but I'm really quite distracted in class lah like, err <mandarin>我的:wo de </mandarin> monitor <mandarin>在这边对嘛然后我旁边就是另外我不是有两个:zai zhe bian dui ma ran hou wo pang bian jiu shi ling wai wo bu shi you liang ge </mandarin> lor, then <mandarin>我另外一个:wo ling wai yi ge </mandarin> monitor <mandarin>就是在:jiu shi zai </mandarin> I don't know I was playing err you know two zero four eight the game [right]


because, it's like my rubik's cube, so very mindless, but err enough to engage like enough to engage me such that I am I can pay attention there and then <mandarin>还有在听课:hai you zai ting ke </mandarin> lor


!hey! , I told you all about that [right]


yeah, this is another course like completely it's a different organization this is the Shatec one [right], and then but the content is kind of similar because there's only that much you can talk about for leadership what, right, like the leadership skills by now I know how to write already it's just it's a lot of listening a lot of coaching a lot of like


err how do you manage your people how did you manage your time how do you like what kind of leadership style are you, ya it's a bit, it's a bit no it's it's very bullshit after a while, like


right, whatever teamwork lah I don't know resilience ah being open minded being open to other people diversion thinking all of this kind of thing you you kind of did learn even in, even if it's in PW where you just like you don't pay attention you still can hear these terms [right]


but not everyone has gone through this kind of stuff at all,


but I've gone through like three classes this kind of stuff, yes I'm sorry I didn't ask you


, , !huh!


, oh, , ,


uh, uh


uh, okay, understand okay, oh


oh, uh, okay, oh


oh,


, , I see


uh


but, oh frequently okay, (uh huh) (ppc)


okay, , oh


oh


okay, oh oh


, weird stuff, but this is your own medical claim, okay but it's usually like for some people will be quite sensitive


(uh huh), oh okay


oh okay, oh, ya ya then they won't say much lah [right]


oh ,


then what do you do when you so you finish work what time, (ppc) someone work from home for too long already ah, , it is leh it really feels a bit like you work from home like I also don't want to go back office to do work next week this week


yeah, yeah, no feels wrong


ya as in even in english you will say you have to do rooms, so so is is, actually I don't know which one translated to be because we have a lot of chinese speaking colleagues [right], so, yeah yeah it's it's a it's a it's you only hear in a hotel context you never hear anywhere else


ya, well but err <mandarin>因为我们现在很多:yin wei wo men xian zai hen duo </mandarin> like <mandarin>他们是快进快出的:ta men shi kuai jin kuai chu de </mandarin> so they come in very quickly they err <mandarin>退房:tui fang </mandarin> very very quickly also, so, err we just have to clean lor but then we have a lot we we can hire external room attendants so <mandarin>他们可以帮我们:ta men ke yi bang wo men </mandarin> lah


err, they didn't check out that many rooms at one go so by right we should be able to clear for them like and they also didn't rush us at that point of time


so <mandarin>我们慢慢做咯又没有赶:wo men man man zuo lo you mei you gan </mandarin> mah then like one day, one day three or two people do three rooms that like we clear if you have a twenty room check out you clear in, couple of days, err but afterwards then they wanted us to rush much more cause err <mandarin>不知道:bu zhi dao </mandarin> leh <mandarin>好像要要:hao xiang yao yao </mandarin> you know like I don't know I think just try to clear faster so that they told us oh yeah you can claim


then we hire more lah, ya because one one room attendant that we hire can do five rooms on her own, and then two of our, (hmm)


yeah, like ya we don't have any internal, like full time internal staff with us that is actually a room attendant all of our full time staff is like supervisors, so


(mmhmm), but <mandarin>他们不一定会做也不一定要来做:ta men bu yi ding hui zuo ye bu yi ding yao lai zuo </mandarin> we have asked some lah like the spa team came to help us and they are quite consistent but they are still like a bit slower so like two to three people can do three rooms a day but then the RA one person <mandarin>就可以做五间了:jiu ke yi zuo wu jian liao </mandarin> leh


ya so can claim mah, exactly then I and also sometimes as in it's not their is it's a bit of a dilemma because, on one hand [right] like for example sales people you ask them to come and train for like three five three to five days they are really very tired then you ask them to do rooms for the next week they're gonna be like damn tiring and but at the same time like


if the because our usual RA in the past ah we used to train them for two whole weeks <mandarin>两个星期:liang ge xing qi </mandarin> eh <mandarin>两个星期才可以做一间房:liang ge xing qi cai ke yi zuo yi jian fang </mandarin> leh, then, and also after you train five days then you ask them to do room clear up [right] then they get very very tired then they start


asking for MC which is we cannot not give it to them [right] cause maybe they are not used to it so their their their backs are aching or whatever right, and then like if they don't do well then our our supervisor <mandarin>管工来一直去查然后一直要去做他们:guan gong lai yi zhi qu cha ran hou yi zhi yao qu zuo ta men </mandarin> like <mandarin>收垃圾:shou la ji </mandarin> like that lah like keep clear up their mess lor


it takes more time ya, so it'd be like that, this video is making me very conscious of my singlish because I don't think my singlish is very, a representative of singlish I probably shouldn't say this if I want a job [right]


err I'm like okay ya we'll see I get, then, so this sunday, I have to go back this sunday as in I am rostered to work on sunday


officially in at work, , , err,


oh no , then then I sunday I'm working [right] so then but I don't know after sunday whether I'm working or not which reason I'm not working or working, uh


<mandarin>不会的:bu hui de </mandarin> as in <mandarin>我比较习惯的:wo bi jiao xi guan de </mandarin> like I I'm tired, but it's okay like, can can do lah, can do, wait thighs won't lah won't won't no lah I went cycling recently with my colleague also and that was I went cycling the day after I went


I did rooms, it was okay lah, it's okay, no ah as in it didn't hurt at all to cycle, ah I see


you by, yeah I've been I've been exercising lah like as in not even if not really exercising I've been moving around lah, so


(mmhmm), uh, ,


, , wait what are you supposed to do, , so you did you exercised twice today,


uh, uh


okay, okay, oh oh okay that's not , that's like, afternoon already


, I see,


oh,


oh okay, uh


, , (uh huh), cook longer


!huh!, okay but it's still like <mandarin>没有料的:mei you liao de </mandarin> lah, , , okay


, it's okay I I I planned to exercise today too, then, !huh!


but, so I err okay so I you know there's this facebook group that gives like free stuff [right], have I told you before


yesterday I saw someone post something about err a bunch of like gameboy cartridges and gameboy, so of course I went to queue you get it [right], my old gameboy still works, yeah yeah but anyway she gave me a gameboy as well


yeah, it's only worth like twenty dollars now leh, as in well I just turned it on and the screen is scratched AF and looks like that some scratches but as in it looks like is some


the screen is scratched but that you can still see, so, !huh!, I mean, okay <mandarin>你不要忘记:ni bu yao wang ji </mandarin> leh <mandarin>那个:na ge </mandarin> gameboy <mandarin>已近很:yi jin hen </mandarin> okay <mandarin>不算很久以前:bu suan hen jiu yi qian </mandarin> but it's a it's a technology of the past it doesn't have that kind of like fancy displays that you know like a Nintendo DS has its


the kind of backlit err, Nokia phone kind of screens, , so for it like to have err scratches but you can still see [right] I mean I guess that's that's better than it not being able to see at all lah !huh!


ya then but I still I never buy the he gave me this entire box of, cartridge just now with the, the sharpener inside, I don't know man then there's so many oh there's a sponge bob square pants and I have like ten different cartridges of pokemon now


yeah, I think I will from time to time I had my harvest moon, I had my harvest moom, can't bring my computer out


I have done it before lah like last time lah like when I was a bit when it I was a bit younger I did it I felt like the screen was very very small but then like, if I want to play some of these games I can only play on the on the gameboy mah


right, oh, then


fuck, , it's not even then yeah yeah I guess like


so how ah ya, , !wah! actually it's just a whole shit ton like pokemon cartridges this person has three of, three three cartridges of pokemon emerald


like this one version, what stash I have only have like five, but we never bought a lot of when we were younger cause it was like the right and then


the original <mandarin>的啦不要讲假的:de la bu yao jiang jia de </mandarin> lah we got all the fake ones lah but like it's still expensive so, by the time, oh no, okay okay is it better now that if I get closer, yeah okay, ya so


oh I'm sorry, by the time we we wanted to play more and because I play something like harvest moon which is a very time intensive game I could spend hours on it and not get sick of it [right], so by the time we are looking for other games to play we were already not playing on


so we didn't have that many cartridges compared to my friends lah who who like some of them had like a whole box, of cartridges, so so, ya lor like, you won't you won't overlap with anything lah


hello, hello can you hear me, oh, yeah yeah, no leh, not really


ya so so instead of exercising I went to, I went to ya I was settling this [right]


yeah, !wah! amazing eh I don't know how you do it [siol]


that's so, don't know how you do that man,


I think we just like tend to hold our breath a lot when we are we are stressed already still need to breathe, same


, , , understand


!wah! mah <mandarin>明白:ming bai </mandarin> word , I'm still listening to my okay so I made err this national day playlist the day after national day, , it was full of twenty twenty okay no it wasn't for twenty twenty stuff okay is like nineteen ninety themed so so err my national day live song singer of this year is liang wen fu okay because liang wen fu is amazing he's the <mandarin>细水长流:xi shui chang liu </mandarin> guy


the <mandarin>新谣:xin yao </mandarin> guy, what do you think it was, ,


, oh my god, what,


close for eternity you get what I mean, ya so, , anyway , so so err liang wen fu is the <mandarin>新谣:xin yao </mandarin> guy okay he is actually one of the pioneers of like the <mandarin>新谣:xin yao </mandarin> movement in the nineteen eighties and nineties okay


then he has this song called err <mandarin>麻雀街竹枝:ma que jie zhu zhi </mandarin> which is as in that's the chinese title but actually the song and that that particular line in the song [right] is sang sung in hokkien, so, because of that [right] and because of the very strong entire dialect err thing we had back then right they err banned the song from official media for twenty three years


at a time where there was no such as spotify or youtube, so effectively they censored censored him lah [right] or they censored that one particular song after twenty three years they unbanned it because they are like channel eight decided to use it for some like <mandarin>主题曲:zhu ti qu </mandarin> [right], then


err and then they gave that guy a cultural medallion, yeah, ya so he, , ya it had like five lines of dialect among the entire song which is in mandarin


yeah they they operate on that thing then [right] so so learning this history is is interesting and then I I've been listening to all his other songs it's just very like <mandarin>到地:dao di </mandarin> it's very local you know history verse it's in his songs and his lyrics right he writes all the lyrics himself mah so


cause there's one which is called <mandarin>新加坡派:xin jia po pai </mandarin>and then he talked about how like singapore was like when he was born which is in the nineteen sixties, err seventies eighties nineties [right] and then afterwards he had a recent hit not recent hit twenty fifteen err he had a concert so it's a it's a <mandarin>个人演唱会:ge ren yan chang hui </mandarin> is really like he's only one concert in his lifetime and there's a


it's like a fund raiser kind of concert, so he I guess he was never really like the concert type [right] but it's just that he had the name and the, credibility and err clout to hold a concert in his own about his own life and his own experiences and and then you know ask people come and donate lah


so during that concert he did <mandarin>新加坡派:xin jia po pai </mandarin> two point zero which is a, like we did which did the nineties and and so on and so forth and it's very cute because the first one he's talking about how like er in the eighties then like we started to have MRT before that before the eighties we still had a lot of like <mandarin>霸王车:ba wang che </mandarin> but then


so, , this was in twenty fifteen okay so where where


and MRTs were at its height of its err breaking down, ya so so when I heard about the second when I heard the second song I wrote on my my my instagram [right] then I that was really the the one thing that made me feel the most patriotic ever like you know like all my friends though I was patriotic as fuck


and then and then I went to listen to his other songs lah, then I found out like on his wikipedia that he he is semi retired so he still writes a lot of songs but like, he runs a chinese tuition centre in the west with his wife okay and then I found on this I found the list like this parenting website kind of thing [right] that is like err the the the lady was just like oh err the centre's fees is this and err


err teacher liang wen fu is a very nice and talented guy he writes a lot of err songs for a lot of famous chinese writers but he's very very nice, then you just like !huh! this, like , so simple ah like it doesn't even seem like this person knew how big of a deal liang wen fu is liang wen fu is friends with jackie chan leh


yeah he's written songs for like the biggest names in in chinese like, pop culture, ya so the the comment is just like err yeah it almost like like yeah err so this doctor liang wen fu he's really interesting he writes songs almost like a side job right on top of teaching my kids and teaching your kid he just write songs because his hobby


, I don't know, I don't know, may be but


as in, I think is because err the the parents who were in, who were parents in the eighties and nineties, would be grandparents by now [right] they wouldn't be the ones talking on this forums, right yeah so the <mandarin>那些父母啦那些在这边打字的父母都不是那些听过他的歌的:nei xie fu mu la nei xie zai zhe bian da zi de fu mu dou bu shi nei xie ting guo ta de ge de </mandarin> or at least <mandarin>没有听听得这样这样:mei you ting ting de zhe yang zhe yang </mandarin> like not at that point of time they would they would be like me lor they listen to it in in retrospect


not as in, , they are, uh


ya ya ya, no


my child my son, my daughter, push,


, oh my god this, , ,


yeah, do they need oxygen to I mean logically thinking I'm thinking yes


so they, but if I put the entire thing in a vacuum they can grow meh,


, okay now we are the parents trying to discuss this, , ya so so I've listened to a lot of liang wen fu I found with some very very cute songs of him of his


like personalities, it's very cute


, , , is it carbon dioxide, do they need carbon dioxide


no need lah in the soil what, , !wah!, okay are we supposed to look at the plans for


saturday, saturday, saturday this saturday did joel oh no, , she can meet,


oh okay then, we have lunch first lah, (hmm), oh


, okay then <mandarin>我们先去吃午餐:wo men xian qu chi wu can </mandarin> then, err, wait I'm going to move my


shit, where


yeah


but who's that guy, I don't know she said something about she how she haven't reply to the guy


oh okay err, yeah, okay okay done, how's the BTO thing, for you


, , , ya


oh, oh that's not wrong ya, but do you really want to stay at Woodlands


(uh huh)


uh, uh, like say where I am now lah,


, yeah,


, that's true yeah the more the bigger concern is whether or not you are working at the same place but the MRT line, the brown line was slated to be completed by twenty thirty the whole thing


and, yeah even as in so by the time you get the house it will be completed, , correct, err


, Woodlands only


oh, Woodlands isn't it


yeah, then I think you have your answer


yeah, , but that one doesn't have causeway point so it's less, appealing yeah


, there's nothing else there, ya ya ya


yeah, can already, have have, have, the #ang mo kio# one is how many years how many how long


oh, for


oh, oh, it's a triangle mah affordability location then, one another thing I don't know you see the TWS post sia, ya because okay so I saw the head and then we weren't we weren't considering Woodlands and then I saw the article today and I saw the price point for Woodlands


then I sent it to shao hai then he's like I thought we not considering Woodlands then I told him I'm not I wasn't until I saw the price lah, , ya but I don't think as in it was a very brief moment and then I saw the waiting times


yeah, why don't you apply and then, for no yeah as in see how yes but also <mandarin>那两年你们就同居先:na liang nian ni men jiu tong ju xian </mandarin> lah as in okay you don't really need to <mandarin>同居:tong ju </mandarin> you can get married and


like just stay, at his place for two years just Tahan a bit at least you are staying together because


she actually said that, ,


, but you all already like, just, okay my my friend is on the other side though, I have a friend my friend my friend


he is going overseas for studies so I think the masters or straight PHD one of them lah okay it's it's a couple of years it's not like that long it's not like five to ten years that kind but it is a long enough time two to three years I think or three to four years, then the girlfriend


I think the girlfriend's family thinks that he he thinks that the girlfriend's family thinks that she can do better, would like


ya <mandarin>不鼓励他们现在去:bu gu li ta men xian zai qu </mandarin> apply because a bit like unsteady future but then <mandarin>我跟你讲你不要现在:wo gen ni jiang ni bu yao xian zai </mandarin> apply <mandarin>你要等很久:ni yao deng hen jiu </mandarin> leh <mandarin>七年:qi nian </mandarin> leh


so !aiya! I don't know lah I think very <mandarin>可惜:ke xi</mandarin> not not that it's very <mandarin>可惜:ke xi</mandarin> that they don't want to apply now because they're I think they will survive this like LDR thing I I think lah, uh and he also thinks that they're quite compactable so just see whether the girl can Tahan the pressure and like so called defy the family a bit lah


right afterwards <mandarin>结婚了就没有关系了:jie hun le jiu mei you guan xi liao </mandarin> mah as in not <mandarin>没有关系:mei you guan xi </mandarin> lah but like <mandarin>没有话讲了:mei you hua jiang le </mandarin> , ya so


I thought that at first <mandarin>他是怕我的朋友:ta shi pa wo de peng you </mandarin> like I don't know lah like go overseas then like change his mind [right] so I was like then you all apply for a flat lah to show that you know you are serious mah, , yeah yeah


yeah, yeah yeah


!huh!, okay, oh, (uh huh), oh but five thousand dollars is quite small though


live with it lah, , yeah, okay, I guess that's why she tell you to lock down first lah,


okay,


, I mean, yeah, yes but also then you have to make it for you have to decide for yourself what is the difference between you being married and not married lor


so, as in this


that one <mandarin>很复杂:hen fu za </mandarin> lah but have to figure out what, , you might have to talk to him about like as in it's really this kind of things that you you kind of basically know but you don't know until you really say what kind of social roles are you expected to like take up once you're married can you escape all the family gatherings you don't want to go


must you like be there for the rites or if if they have like rites or whatever lah, , with your family leh then you have to tell him


oh,


, uh, oh, is it a big deal to yourself though


what okay what would be the big deal things to you, if you want to say now lah if you don't want to say you tell me later, uh


, , uh, yeah


, , ya I think that sounds like a good good way lah


, you might ya lah as in so that they don't they don't as in not that not to avoid them coming back to blame you for not giving them the experience but just that this is what, if you don't give them that how do they know to tweak up or down


oh, , ,


you are not a ruined person, then, not one to one but I think


one group we talk forever, , you know like therapy session , okay lah I


I feel like I'm not exactly fully code switching it's like my entire phrase will be in, chinese and then <mandarin>多一个词很多词都是英文的:duo yi ge ci hen duo ci dou shi ying wen de </mandarin> like purposely try to do that now , ya so I don't know whether it really counts as true code switching but okay !wah! <mandarin>我尽力了:wo jin li le </mandarin>


ya I haven't spoken in like no, okay not no but less singlish in a very very long time because I used to do that to my guest [right] they won't really understand me, err but I haven't been at the franchise for a while ,


oh, ya ya I do that now also cause mandarin speaking,


oh yeah yeah,


, oh


yeah,


, , yeah, well my indonesian colleague like she's also like the, I was gonna say the annoying one and anyway no names [right] no names yeah so so


she also picked it up like mandarin, so so yeah to a decent level lah I would say written spoken mandarin but she of course cannot read and write lah, yeah, ya but okay I find it very very hard to speak mandarin to #shao kai#


is very very weird yeah it's so weird like just even even okay so I can speak mandarin to his parents, err fully but I cannot speak mandarin to him like when I speak to if like dinner [right] <mandarin>我们坐在一起吃饭他坐我旁边:wo men zuo zai yi qi chi fan ta zuo wo pang bian </mandarin> ah <mandarin>然后他父母坐在我右边我可以看着他父母讲华文:ran hou ta fu mu zuo zai wo you bian wo ke yi kan zhe ta fu mu jiang hua wen </mandarin> right but I don't know why I have to speak in english to him eh


I think I understand,


then err he spoke to his friend in english like the whole time [right] from before it's his best friend lah so very long already mah but he's then, he sat down then the the best friend introduce his girlfriend as a malaysian chinese and that they spoke mostly mandarin


so #shao kai# you can see his brain trying to like switch over to the other it was very very funny it was, is you do that they do their typical things that you do like you know both languages and the other person also know both languages but you think that other person more familiar with one so you translate for them even though they understand both


it was very funny it was very very funny yeah, yeah


why leh, with my brother and I speak english, uh


, I speak english with my my brother but he can as in we we switch sometimes depending on what the, it's if it's about investments even, if a lot of mandarin because we, understand their terms in mandarin I don't know what the terms are in english


my dad taught all of us in in mandarin what, err yeah yes but it's just yeah it's just the nouns like you just find the equivalent lor


and then we are so used to looking at the app and how like the the average lines and everything [right] then when we use another app that is in english [right] we cannot we don't we were like where's the where's the line where is that thing that we are that we're so used to see


so it turns out then we go back to the mandarin app and we don't understand half the functions in the mandarin app cause it's in like it's in like canto mandarin, ya cause it's a hong kong app so the mandarin doesn't like it's not semantic it's more of the sound, there are some things we don't understand how to use it


then we struggled lah we struggled lah I found another app that is english version and then you can like do other things similar stuff just that it's in english,


not really business just very technical terms also not even like the fundamental like


ya but not, not generally, really torture really speaking, we'll figure it, !wah! fifteen minutes I actually I don't know I don't know if we are doing


oh so we're going to drag this a bit more, like <mandarin>这个只是那个:zhe ge zhi shi na ge </mandarin> trial <mandarin>而已我不知道我们我们会不会真的:er yi wo bu zhi dao wo men wo men hui bu hui zhen de </mandarin> qualify actually if <mandarin>如果:ru guo </mandarin> qualify <mandarin>的话是蛮蛮好的:de hua shi man man hao de </mandarin>


cause, then


, and then


oh yeah, yeah, oh my gosh, so freaking hot


uh


uh, uh, (ugh)


, ya it hates you,


!huh!, , what do you buy slipper is it


uh, (uh huh), , psychological heat


, , (uh huh)


uh, oh, oh, uh


okay


you can do that, I don't know how crocheting works man


uh, okay, so you need to, yeah


I I I don't have a mental, of this okay I don't know how crocheting really works I thought it was like ya like fully yeah you know not a piece of cloth one, oh, okay, ya my brain was like several steps behind


I see, why don't you why can't you just make more cloth then for other projects, oh but you as in it wouldn't make sense to make the cloth if you don't have, the big project coming up [right], then you just have a piece of cloth there


oh, okay,


yeah, but you will just have to fix it you just have to fix,


I haven't I haven't been watching anything I just don't have the, the stamina for it, ya I know derry girls I never even watch drama prince I haven't even done any of them, I saw err


ya but I I have I have okay I saw some tweet about like people, who have a bit of like anxiety or something [right] they like to rewatch shows because they already know what's happening and I think that's the case for me because, I don't know what anxieties I have lah but like, I don't want to accept new character or think about err new like plot or obsess over a new thing I have to watch the whole thing


oh, , ,


okay, it's just funny lah, okay


okay, okay then


hello yes I'm here, , hello


yeah, yeah that's true, okay so how was your day, yeah


(mmhmm)


oh damn, err I mean


oh, oh so that's what you meant about him being thirty plus


okay, (mmhmm)


I'm sorry , I thought you were gonna say more , painting


oh , like, like seven days straight, oh so you're coming to


oh, oh that's nice oh I thought, , I thought this whole time <mandarin>你在工作:ni zai gong zuo </mandarin> , no wonder so, yeah, no wonder so free to text me


, oh okay,


model student as usual, like is it


oh, oh oh so this is a separate oh, no wonder ,


, , so cynical, yeah I mean they can't it's hard to teach leadership [right]


yeah, , I guess


that's true especially if you like, I guess the school curriculum only like started to, change to this maybe like closer to our time, okay


, , you want to hear about my day, it was so dumb, no no no so okay so I started yesterday so <mandarin>昨天:zuo tian </mandarin> [right] I went back for like one small work matter because right now I working from home most of the time [right]


so I went for something like need to find the, find one of my supervisors to do some hardcopy things, so I on my computer


ya <mandarin>做工电脑:zuo gong dian nao </mandarin> because last week [right] so my suspicion was last week, they updated , cause I left it update when I left lah, , so to start I open the circle spinning spinning spinning for three hours so I click


then, so <mandarin>他们派一个人下来啦:ta men pai yi ge ren xia lai la </mandarin> then so <mandarin>他:ta </mandarin> I think after lunch <mandarin>的时候才下来:de shi hou cai xia lai </mandarin> then, maybe is like the update cause even before that like last month they updated my


the OS too, from windows seven to windowns ten this PC is like too old to accept, windows ten, is it started to slow down but it was still usable then I think this update like killed it , because err once so I on already I want to so he was struggling so hard to at least even let it


like yeah even go to the login page [right] it couldn't, so he let it like run overnight then I just say oh tomorrow as in if tomorrow he can I can then I come back for this lor, so I arranged in the afternoon lah because I wanted to do some work in the morning first


anyway err, and also, I came down then, it was still loading at hundred percent, like since yesterday, ya so he, he's he was like he couldn't identify the problem cause okay so today he ran all the test what RAM tests don't know what test lah like all the test test


then I just sit there lor do my own things, then like, as in I don't blame him lah I think it's about enriching the computer history he said it's like out of warranty even it was bought in like twenty fifteen, and I don't know how to really use this computer worst part


ya so, I think the solution is kind of as in we are both kind are hoping that I'll just get a replacement soon, because it is kind of due for a replacement already, just like, in this period of time, ya so now apparently after he saved it [right] he say now it will like


like suddenly black screen lah like last time it will just slow but he say now now after he fixed it and with the update, it will like randomly shut down or something


should be fine, luckily now it's work from home


yeah, , ya <mandarin>吃完饭:chi wan fan </mandarin> then go office then, sit there for four hours for this, but okay lah I managed to submit my medical claim because he fixed like another problem


ya err cause for us we our claims can go directly to the place but then I went to a, err as in can claim but then must do by manually one ah, then, it was in april but I I didn't manage to do the claim last time because like at first it was work from home then later I went back then they said don't know what basically some some system thing lah


then cannot, so apparently is because they the the company level they updated the claiming portal but then like, apparently everyone's computer has to be individually updated to link to that one, so right now my entire office is only my colleague's computer who can


do the claim and she sits next to me that's why he help me fix it, for like yeah it is apparently quite a quick fix lah but he has to do one by one like some, like a, java thing I don't know, I don't know weird stuff hopefully gets cleared


ya my own, but it's not a big deal lah I was just testing it, oh err, so, okay so my company can


for a lot of places, you don't need to submit the claim manually like it gets processed, if you are in a like the panel clinics that kind of thing like they can charge it straight they they'll just charge it straight to your company lor


but then as in ya, but then, uh I went to one that is like can claim but I must manually submit the receipt that kind, but I don't need to say what it's for lah, I mean unless you can tell based on the medicine lor but mine is not sensitive lah


I think you can I think they only cover consult consult fee anyway so you can always block out the medication part, should be lah but, , but actually my company, as in by right they should know everything that's wrong with you but [right]


I think I just ya, you know, no lah I mean by right you must declare everything what at the start, but of course along the way you never know yeah


six woah first time I end work so late in so long , ya man work from home is the real life


but you have no choice , yeah I mean, I would think that,


like, , it's a workout, that's true I don't think either are correct anyway


yeah, oh yeah,


but then is it need like, a certain degree of like severity before you can, hire external or anytime also can if cannot cope then can already


oh right right, , (mmhmm)


nice, oh like so , so, they're are all like <mandarin>临时工:lin shi gong </mandarin> lah like now oh


oh okay okay, oh as in I thought I thought maybe like


cause now like <mandarin>其他的部门都比较有空:qi ta de bu men dou bi jiao you kong </mandarin> then maybe ask them to come and help , okay sure true true


ya anyway this one can claim, you cannot claim the salary


, oh, woah,
