where where charles and keith is only for females meh, you anyhow bomb one right fuck you , really


ya then,


, you can't do it eh, bro it's so expensive though supreme eh


it's for it's for the it's the status symbol lah typical lah


you know what's the best status symbol or not having having the high net worth eh no having no job eh living the fat FIRE eh that's the status symbol bro !wah! that's the dream eh (hmm)


like what


ya true true true, no, oh but I saw this very interesting thing though like uh so like, the average the average millionaire this is in US lah but the average millionaire in US right uh gets two percent of their net worth taxed in taxed ah basically


two percent you know how much uh, uh warren buffett's like stuff gets taxed, how much of his net worth gets taxed, I think zero point zero zero eight two percent, cause cause most of his uh income comes from non taxable sources so like


stocks ah stocks appreciating is non taxable mah it's not capital gain, no non taxable, ya it's fucking broken eh what the hell , he doesn't pay his taxes dude !wah! I want to be like that eh I I don't want to pay tax bro fuck fuck paying tax eh


amazon amazon is the worst amazon is the fucking worst amazon don't pay tax at all, I don't know but amazon amazon doesn't even like


what, uh usually it's like charity or like housing like put like put their, put their income in like how to say like those tax havens [orh], like ya like you right ah like alaska or the most the most common one is the cameron islands


ya ya ya ya that one that one is the the the king of self tax bro cause like I don't think they have like their their laws are very loose about how to set up funds and stuff, so like damn easy lah !walao! eh like <mandarin>随便随便:sui bian sui bian</mandarin> just can set up a firm then like don't know some paper company then like the money just recycles through itself then like


easy game ah, something like this lah I also not exactly sure how it works but oh you know like, you know how you know you cannot get money out of china in large amounts you cannot get


like you cannot change yuan to USD very easily, you cannot so right you know why macau is so successful, uh it's a special district of china I think


ya okay so or hong-kong I not sure but like, so right the chinese billionaires they will buy, uh they will buy a package of like a hotel stay in macau, then they will buy for fucking ridiculous amount so they will buy like


they will buy a hotel package that includes like poker chips or something like like uh casino gambling chips ah so they pay maybe hundred million for a stay then ninety nine million involve in casino chips, ya then the casino chips you know what they get in they get in USD


ya then they gamble they gamble a bit ya then they cash in then they just cash out then they get ninety nine million in USD then after that they just, they want to convert to USD to park the money in uh like somewhere the china's government cannot access


ya so they want, they don't Zao from china lah as in it's it's a legal thing to do so like you are not doing anything wrong what they don't want you to Zao from china but it's a legal way to get your money out of china


ya out of the china chinese economy lah so so as to speak, ya they are fucking smart bro that's why macau got so much you know macau is a bigger gambling centre than las vegas, ya ya


it's that that's why it's so successful it's cause of the fucking chinese billionaires bro they need to get it out eh, not not at our level lah


means you made it eh means you made it , not not more than people income bro more than other people net worth eh


you you pay for someone's life eh basically !wah! that's so fucked up eh if you think about it, you are paying for someone's life eh, oh I remember like uh, ya !wah! jesus christ I I want money man !wah! I cannot stop thinking about money recently eh I really want money bro the reason I'm doing this whole thing eh


ya, ya as in okay so, to as in to get the eighteen dollar thing lah so as in I want a flexible like side hustle for now like, just to just to earn a bit lah on the side cause I'm cause I'm working I'm working already actually


guess lah guess, uh full time full time I working full time


admin no I working healthcare you should know already ah guess lah guess it's it's it's the it's the highest paying job right now bro, no ah I I I working as a I working as a swabber bro


ya, COVID nineteen tester ah ya, uh so okay, okay lah okay so at first ah it wasn't for money ah I tell you first I tell I honest honest legit not for money


but so uh one of my friends ah uh I don't know if you know like this girl so she post a story on instagram, then like it was this voluntary thing for, if you sign up lah then after that like you can get like uh how to say


uh got a few jobs lah got like admin got like it's for all the dormitories and all the like expo stuff, they needed a lot of people at that time, but they didn't state their salary then I was thinking like okay lah I think this kind of high risk job is ten per hour right


ya uh at least ten per hour so I just go and apply lor then like, uh I put all my prior experience cause I wear protective gear before, in my old clinic, so I got experience wearing that shit lah then after that


uh a few I think two three days later they get back to me sia then they say I'm hired then say uh they send me for the course on how to swab people, ya then like after that they still haven't tell me my salary so I'm like what the fuck is this like full voluntary then I'm like holy shit like am I not going to get paid then I'm a bit bonkers ah


I'm like !walao! eh like , you you not giving me money one meh damn bastard sia , then like I go for the course one day only very chill then after that, I think five days later they got eh no three days later they get back to me already then they send me contract say like uh can you start work soon


then I say I can start work anytime I can start work tomorrow if you want, then in the contract uh it wrote I I read through the contract first time I didn't notice second time I uh remuneration three thousand four hundred dollars, then then I like what the fuck three thousand four hundred holy shit man then like

ya, have have have but like I don't mind lah still it's still three thousand something three thousand, ya ya ya I don't mind the CPF lah uh one M sixty five bro do you know one M sixty five


there's this like like uh movement called one M sixty five it's to have one million dollars in your CPF by the time you six five, no by when by you're sixty five years old


ya so the the goal is to have hundred hundred thirty thousand by the time you are thirty in your CPF which is quite hard to do lah but if you can do that then you have one million dollars at sixty five years old in CPF


ya correct based on compounding you have one million one fucking million eh, ya lah so you have to either be very uh be a high income earner be very frugal or like ya lor like choose very selectively about the housing you buy lah like ya

but then how they know I I wearing earpiece you also wearing earpiece


oh, ah oh they will join the conversation one ah oh okay okay, by who by who one


oh why you cannot you cannot join NUS speaking programme cause cause they don't talk like cause they don't talk singlish mah that's why you cannot , eh you Kena rashes ah on your you Kena rashes on your !huh! !wah! stretch until like that bench bench too much already


eh I swear I swear like I swear I can beat I can beat the guy ah like, the like the seventy KG ah but like he not even I mean he not even good form ah so if I do even if I do seventy KG with with like better form I win already ya, I I see him do


no lah actually actually he heavier than me he's seventy five he seventy five kilo actually I'm I'm also I'm now now I'm seventy five kilo but then he he he definitely more lean than me ah but like I think, like I oh I I got see his instagram again ah like I I once in a while I go check ah then then then like I see I see like he do a thirty kilo for six ah like


thirty kilo for six and the six rep like he fail sia I think I I feel like I feel like the seventy for one is like a fake eh , ya no it's not even like cause I see his sixty for one then after that he jump to seventy for one his sixty it's just


the the form progressively like became worse and worse it's not that he his strength improve or whatever it's just that sixty he did a better form and then seventy he did a worse form, so his strength is about the same ah I think I think, he one year older than us hor he uni one year I think, ya but from the


what thing what thing see got what, no no like from the looks of it right I think I estimate a I think his like clean form one will be probably like a fifty fifty ah fifty for one, I think I think based based on my laser eye vision


bruh I see greg doucette greg doucette bro I , he's a he's a he's a IFBB pro ah but then but ya lah he no I I love I love watching him ah like he he like yell at me through the camera like that


ya no ah I I like taking his like training advice a bit lah like he say like train harder, ya that's his advice ah ya like basically train to failure lah ya cause like, ya like pull like like the thing is like a lot of people like pull ups right they say pull ups you need to like do weighted right


but then like the if you do it the way like he does it right like it's like damn hard eh like he do cause he do like very very slow eccentric he say one set right, one set should take you forty seconds eh so you should have forty seconds of thud, right that that's damn that's a lot eh like I tried I tried it just now ah like my pull up I did like ten reps ah


ya I got pull up bar at home ya so like actually actually I don't I don't really need to do weighted lah like basically I'm not strong enough ah for weighted, ya, eh nevermind ah he say he say I'm going to make the best gains of my life following his advice


wait what are you saying, ya, ya lah but you you, financial consultant uh okay lah I mean I don't think I will I mean it's not for me ah but then if they want to go for it I don't mind ah like it's not you don't want


straight up scam ah, no but financial financial financial consulting is just insurance what no meh and


the the best, eh, , ya, okay lah but so that so you think financial consulting is a is a like like shady business lah


I, I think I don't know ah as long as I I don't know ah I choose to like, I choose to trust in like humanity ah like I don't think like I I guess like not all of them not all of them is just out to like get your money ah of course like


of course that's their main goal like number one goal is make money for yourself mah, nothing wrong with that lah but then like as long as they believe they truly believe that their product can also help you then I think it's okay it's okay that they want to make money for themselves, right cannot be cause it's it's they are selling their service mah they are selling their service


oh, but who but who


but then but then like who want to talk to their insurance agent for one hour then still need to pay them twenty dollar


ya, no, no the like


if I'm not wrong like like for insurance right like they sell you a product right then they get fifty percent of the commission for the first year, first year premiums (ppc) then after that after that after that is like it it will slowly dilute down lah until until it reach like one percent then after that they will earn I think for the next like five to ten years they will earn a bit a bit a bit


ya I mean I mean it's ridiculous ah but then but it's like, ya, ya


ya but I mean like okay lah like I I feel like maybe the insurance is a bit over the top I mean the commission is a bit over the top ah, ya but but it that's that's also not their fault ah like it's it's it's the insurance company ah it's the big guy it's the it's the guy at the top


ya and then but then the thing is like if he if the guy say like okay like the big the big boss say like okay I want I don't want to give so much commission already, then reduce the prices then the agent also complain that kind of thing ya, but now but like I think I think now maybe like maybe maybe it's like cause of online like now got a lot of like


insurance apps all that so like it reduce all the agent fees then they make it all they make all the prices more competitive ah so maybe in the future like someone create like a, like a a a app or or or website to like just automate the whole process then make insurance agents obsolete already ya


ya hopefully like Yang #yang quan# got something lah #yang quan# create the , like like I think #yang quan# got more like big like he got more big big plans ah for himself ya


of course, uh okay [orh] as in how's my girlfriend in in in in quarantine , nothing oh but oh but ya but ya lor like okay lah like


oh you like I told you she got rejected lah from NTU so she going back NUS lor, ya but that that's all ah, uh


some find it better ah I don't know ah uh it's I think it's worse [orh], uh I think it's worse ah cause like ours ours early stage only mah early stage relationship so like naturally like see each other more lah, maybe for people that are like maybe people like four five years in actually I also don't know ah like I got no experience with relationship man


I'm learning as I go I learn as I go but I'm I'm assuming I'm assuming like four five years down the road like, you your reliance on each other may become less [orh] then then maybe it's better for them ah maybe they maybe they feel but I, ya but I think like I don't know eh like


I don't want to ever feel obligated to see her or something like that like you know like I don't want like when I see her I don't want it to be feel like an obligation like if people feel that way then I think there's something wrong eh, I don't know but maybe maybe it's maybe it's normal lah cause like the the initial spark will fade one mah then Bo Pian one


eh must use must use must use dialect and chinese what's wrong with you you never use, I use Bo Pian already eh Nabeh


Bo Bo Pian bro that's the only one that I know , , unnatural eh so you going you going arts ah FASS

ya, what you, what you mean, is it


we cannot what what do you mean by we cannot cut each other off that means both cannot talk at the same time, we never talk at the same time what we like we it's like just got a bit of like, ten seconds ten seconds

and then shopee have lazada have and facebook eh the facebook page right so like where they where where do they come from one I was thinking like where the fuck do they come from, like they got a korean guy on the packaging they have and they say it's made in the US, then I don't know where the fuck it come from one ah then then I go on like


ya then I go on alibaba right then I search collagen sachet cause basically like it's like this like small little ya it's in a sachet lah, I search collagen sachet then like it's like there's this there's this uh seller right he sell a blank a blank sachet of collagen then they say put your brand here


ya no then they then it's really I swear it's like identical, the the shape of the sachet is identical and the content is also thirty ML like both thirty ML then it's like basically but you have to buy a lot lah so it's like I think you buy it for forty cents per sachet then you the minimum amount is hundred thousand sachets


so you have to basically invest forty thousands dollar ah but then they they sell it they sell it for like, twenty dollars per box and one box only has five sachets so they sell it for like ten times ten times the cost, ya and then put your brand here they they they say you can like you can link up with them and then basically like do everything ah like like you want to put the korean guy


I don't know but it's you want put you want to you you want to put U made in the US, then they can put whatever ingredients cause like I swear like they say got acai got collagen all that maybe got collagen ah cause the the alibaba one also got collagen but they say got acai got all this berries multi vitamin


I swear it all fake ah then like , ya I know okay so so that's the point so like so like the thing is right like uh so it's like why why would, if it's such a good product right like can make your breast bigger can clear your acne right and it's only it's only five it's only twenty dollars per box lah right so


in in the sense if you think about it as a medical product it's like quite cheap mah so like why wouldn't they sell it at those like, pharmacies right they can make a lot of money mah why why they sell it through facebook through lazada through influencers, then ya lah it's to, it's to it's to remove like yourself from it lah then I think right it's a it's a fucking pyramid scheme ah like some guy some guy he like approach this like impressionable influencers then he's like


eh you want to help me push some products then you keep this amount of commission right, like a pyramid scheme that's why, I swear it's a pyramid scheme but then like who like who is dumb enough to participate in such a such a such a like, like you you you are making yourself liable for like anything that happens so like who is dumb enough oh this fucking sixteen year old sixteen year old girls ah

ya ya, ya, no I'm assuming it's like, coding is like like a lot of people can do it as long as you practice but then like to like use the use like to to be able to problem solve with the code I think maybe that requires a bit more


like not talent ah but like skill and like refinement ah I don't know lah now I read the book they tell me there's no such thing as talent, as long as you, think and grow rich, think think and grow


no lah it's by it's by napoleon hill, there you see this one, they say, they say they say like a lot of people without talent also succeed what, so

don't buy like how can you buy daniel wellington like like it's really like the, it's like it's like the clown of the watch industry but it's so it's so it's so uh it's so successful ya, I feel like I feel like making a T-shirt brand eh


ya, no like like I feel like you know the the T-shirt uh company that I say right like, like I don't know eh like I feel like it will appeal to singaporean guys eh but like just you know like make it cheaper make it with like lower quality


material but then make it the same design I feel like it will appeal to like singaporean guys but then the thing is like, it's it's very like no one really knows about it ah like it's more popular like in america but it's not even that popular, but it's quite nice eh wait let me try to show you can I share screen


oh ya sharing screen right, cards

no but I if I, if I'm not wrong like like this kind of like a lot of the like how to say ah like a lot of the sizes it actually it's actually more fitting for for like shorter guys


I think like cause, cause like cause like I saw their facebook advertisement like some like five five foot seven guy then he wear a medium and he's quite he's quite skinny ah like he's like the athletic kind of built, ya like like I think even skinnier than me then he's wearing a medium like I think ya that's why I think like I mean like obviously like when if I if like you make it like you can make it if you create the product then you can like tailor it to your to your country's need ah


ya but it's just, no but it's like it's like moving like it's like making a different like like how to say ah like segment of the market lah like no one no one is making like men's like men specific like kind of clothes mah right


no like no one like no one has their brand like girls like got their editors market they got, charles and keith kind of thing like local brand like they got pomelo, I don't know like, have you seen a guy wearing charles and charles and keith charles and keith is


ninety percent females I I I if I'm not wrong, ya but like okay like like editor's market like pomelo, okay like charles and keith maybe not counted lah cause they are they are quite worldwide now, ya but like no one is like making like guy's specific kind of, like the and like the brand is the brand the brand that I'm trying to push forward is like clean like clean cut like not like baggy and then like fucking


I don't know ah like what what's that one bape ah, bathing ape ah like !wah! fuck like who who like who who likes that why why do people like that ya, ya supreme then uh I don't know ah like even like gucci or like balenciaga like why why would you buy a T-shirt that says


balenciaga , but like I don't know you can like don't buy maybe five T-shirts then buy a a nice watch like that that I feel that's a better status symbol, than I mean like like maybe not everybody are looking at your watch ah everybody is like looking at the balenciaga


ya lah but, what, ya lah ya, I mean no like like like I feel like


uh like like okay I cause I follow some like the like income like finance instagram kind of thing then like motivational kind of, kind of uh instagram accounts right, then they like to compare like oh like guys like like billionaires versus billionaires like how they dress and then like


like not average people how they dress then like average people like they wear all this kind of thing then billionaires wear like like pajamas or whatever lah like okay lah like, let's not let's not go too far lah let's not think let's not think billionaire like like like


like I mean like I mean I'm a I'm a average guy but I still want to look I still want to look good lah like I still want to dress okay like fitting clothes and kind of thing, like there's nothing wrong with that like but then but then it doesn't have to be like like it doesn't have to be pajamas right it doesn't have to be like, I don't have to wear a turtle neck to look like a billionaire I don't have to wear like I don't have to wear like dress bad like just cause you dress badly like it's like too much stereotyping lah

ya, not near not near at all okay lah to you maybe near , , yes, yours is like yours is like Tekong


Tekong, , , oh no, , eh I think I need to go already cause today my #lao bu# birthday


(uh) (ppl), okay can, (ppl), (ppo) okay, bye bye


hi #swee koon#, so what have you been doing in the last semester leh


I know right like last sem I didn't even do anything very productive leh like for example I just did normal pol science mods and other than that I don't even know what I really did leh I like like I really waste a lot of time you know


ya I live on campus [orh], I think if I remember correctly I think about five mods lor


you leh


oh what what what mods did you take last sem, how


(mmhmm), oh uh I think ya singapore foreign policy, politics ya by Depark Depark, you forgot all the last sem modules already


I know I know <mandarin>我知道我知道:wo zhi dao wo zhi dao</mandarin> you you take the the the the PI PI your favourite PI


actually I think I know I think, I know what you take what mods you take leh uh PI SFP foreign policy civil military and


you really don't remember , as in as in because we got talk about this before like before last sem leh so like if like I can vaguely remember what you said, I can and you don't even ya and you don't even remember what you took


ya !walao! sia what you talking leh , are you sure you took are you sure you took four


not not not, ah ah ah, oh yes yes yes modern western modern western beautiful mod


, I think I think because that mod like like very different from other mods you know, !wah! too easy [siol]


what the that that's the first time I heard people say that mod easy eh , as in as in like because it's very different from other mods lor so it's it's it's very different like instead of doing like normal research right his mods are always those kind that will that that that that don't like you don't need to go on the internet one you just need to read and like don't know just just it's very different like it's all very philosophical instead of the normal SFP kind


I think he also quite lazy lah like really like, even for the the the the the environmental politics I took it's he doesn't even have like essays to write so like


uh so like for, mid terms hor they he just ask us to go into the exam hall and like write open ended questions not even essay questions eh, then like the bell curve !huh!, no as in because I took in sem one


ya I took with Kathiar remember ya so in the end no last sem I didn't take la porri's mod, ya so in the end like he I think he damn lazy to like think of the essay lor so in the end he just give very standard questions with very standard answers then the bell curve


damn steep, so in the end like damn bad , ya really eh like they just they don't really care about exams ah they just teach for the for the fun of it


ya his tutorials damn intensive I feel , uh okay, you meant oh uh tutorial is it, the the the modern western I didn't I didn't get him lor like then environmental politics I got him as my TA so in the end like it's exactly the same like people just form groups then we just talk about the topic we post questions lor


!hais! <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> Sian leh !hais!, , ya what the hell so fast eh


is that because of your PI, , then we can take three mods together #swee koon#, ,


but it's different lecturer lah, hope so I mean like, I think it's also better because even if you okay lah Choy lah touch wood if you fail right at least you can SU it


it'll be a U lor ya you have to retake you have to retake, it's like it's like, you never take the module, but it won't affect your cap it's just reflected in your transcript lor


!aiya! anyway I don't think can I don't think will fail one lah, I feel that everyone right also do very badly so in the end the entire cohort will be like the bell curve will be quite okay


I think you look at ryan he like so Zai one then he also complaining damn bad, , ya I I feel very inferior beside him eh


surviving day by day !haiya! ya lor that's why that's why


that's why uh I don't really I don't really ask him what mods he taking because I don't really want to be in the same class as him , I feel more comfortable with people like us like we all very chill no what the hell we both same same one we very chill then we don't really like talk much about like academics kind of thing


, our favourite conference, which is actually happening now you know if it's not for the COVID, seven to eleven I remember seven eleven


ya sia I actually looking forward to the physical like like being physically there and and like just just soaking in the atmosphere it's damn exciting


it's very tough eh imagine you okay imagine if you if you join as liaisons again right, it's so Sian firstly it's so Sian right then if but if you want to change then it would be so tough because imagine if you go to like acads acads is like I I think they like major in instead of their major eh


ya really especially those those people that join like don't know five or six I don't know what they doing eh, like it's a ya Sian then like like


imagine so Sian then you still do every five or six years it's like every single year you keep doing and doing and doing, I don't know ah maybe they they, ya I mean as in a lot of people also a lot of them never haven't haven't join uni yet mah so it's like maybe that they are quite free or something


we are like one of the oldest, ya please, ya I cannot join I don't want to join already , you the only person older than us, ya the only person older than us is Lokesh eh and


Lokesh and and and and royston I think, I think he is year three this year lor I think year three or year two I don't I don't know I don't really know, ya


then Valen is like, Valen is like haven't even enter uni right oh she enter already ah, year one right, ya and I feel that she's like our age


ya because she ya ya, ya because she is very knowledgeable about so like we we we put her in a higher regard, , !haiya!, !huh!


together, as in what as in like, like couple, couple, !ee! , what the hell I cannot imagine


as in no no no as in not disgusting but like I just I just the the thought never like never cross my mind leh like I cannot even imagine them together, no


!ee! what kind of evidence , is that from your from your design friend what's her name ah, oh ya #tong lin# #tong lin# eh I saw your, story that, she not taking anymore pol science mod


oh she just switch over is it


oh but, but I, oh but I feel that a lot of pol science mods can bend over to global studies, oh !ee! but remember the list I sent you about the list of the mods next sem


ya the global studies mod so little eh , ya sia I mean it's still very new so like they don't have a lot of profs but like if you major in it right like every sem so limited then you everyone keeps taking the same mods like so Sian eh


ya I still I still like pol science pol science the best, really meh you don't like ah


ya, like you hundred percent traumatised by PI, really meh but it's different lah because you all learning all mah but like


you can learn like, python all those python is very manageable, ya ya ya I took last sem, ya CS ten ten is python


ya and it's it's it's very it's very like I don't know about PI lah but this one is because is mainly about coding so it's like very (ppc) so <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> like uh how do I say like very they bring in a lot of real life concepts so like you can imagine how you can use coding in your real life


ya so for example if you work in if you work like uh corporate job next time then they want you to like analyse a data then you can use your basic coding language to like formulate and like immediately filter out the data that you need lor so I think it's very uh convenient and good in that sense


I think, I think the foundations are the most important lor like


if like like because, once you have the foundation like I feel like you can (ppc) I feel that you can learn by yourself so you don't need to take any other NUS mods because if you take it I think I will just fail everything, so like so like if, you take the foundation mods already then you can just go online or like take online courses then you can just practice by yourself I think that's very good


and I think even I mean like people like us we won't go inside a a a an industry that requires a hundred percent coding so like if you go to the normal job then they just want you to do like simple stuff then you can just use your simple coding to like do those kind of stuff don't need like very high level kind


ya ya lah but uh uh if you are if you really don't want to do coding then don't need to do lah don't force yourself , I saw your insta story also


I love it I know I I know all your your entire life through insta stories , ya sia I love it leh do it more do it more , Paiseh what


no what the I mean if they don't like just, just don't see lah what the hell, block you block you , !aiya! !aiya! but , don't need to worry about PI lah tomorrow will know already


, uh we can calculate so four thirty to nine AM is how far , uh sixteen and a half hours


ya it's you you you try [orh] sixteen plus four is twenty what, twenty is like eight, it's not benefit of the doubt it's the correct answer leh , !yay!


, okay but but you confirm taking those mods next sem right the one you say, , uh you you said, international and regional organisations right


then, oh ya ya the four K mod oh I quite excited leh like even though like I I also very scared about four K mods but but at least the thing that I will be taking is at least like sounds very nice so it's better


ya, ya and no the, prof is friendly because uh my friend took two of her eh, two is it two no no took her mod last sem uh she she took the mod called


wait what did she take ah, I forgot what mod was that, no no no not four K three K, #kim hae jin# ah what did she teach ah


okay I forgot anyway then ya then she said that she's damn nice like she actually put in effort to like help the students kind and her lectures quite like quite interesting so like I'm looking forward already !yay!


taking what, that friend [orh], that friend who took her mod last sem, ya


what's her name, I think can find ah let me, find, because she don't really teach a lot of mods one, NUS mods leh, uh last time she never teach a lot I think she only


taught that one, three K, uh !huh! really which prof


oh, obviously you don't care about him , uh


lmao is it that bad , or is it like like like like things that you don't even like, bother remembering like it's not even interesting is it


!huh! that's, such a negative vibe to the mod I a bit scared, , !hais! I don't know leh like damn Sian, some more the whole sem is online then like damn damn Sian eh I don't know


!huh! why, complain about !huh!


but how come they only allow four K four K also no practical what, oh ya ya because it's seminar seminar based


uh I I don't know whether it's all four K but I think a lot of them are because like they focus a lot on like like discussions together not like normal tutorials kind


ya so oh ya ya that that makes sense that makes sense because four K the cohort very small, ya ya, okay !yay! I I I actually am looking forward to go back to school lor, like I mean you spend three living three months at home right then after that you think that you can go back to school for like four months then they say no


then you spending another four months at home I don't know what I will do eh , , no because I moved out of cap


at in april so like I still had like four months in cap at beginning of this year, at least !aiya! but I might !aiya! and my residential life journey ended very abruptly


don't have like seriously it's just that abruptly you know after #lee hsien loong# like speak about the the the the measures right I think in early april, then the next day right they send an email say like okay you have


uh the two choices you can either stay in cap, and you can never leave, NUS for the next, four weeks then like what the hell or you can just immediately go back, and never ever come back then I'm like what what is this


no eh a lot of people stay, as in you can, you you can leave NUS only for like uh like essential stuff like for example you want to buy like groceries or maybe once per week you want to go outside can


but like you cannot walk outside with people, you can you can you cannot even walk inside NUS with people then you cannot even receive visitors so your family cannot even come and visit you so a bit that's a bit sad lah so like I cannot take it because I need to see people also so I just left


shag leh , okay lah but I think the the year ones this year got it worse because, their second year in cap right, it's going to be even worse like they segregate based on your faculty they segregate based on your zones you cannot live with your friends anymore


ya ya ya they the the year ones lor so got still got people coming in to stay lah, ya but it's very different so like, I don't really want to stay also if I have the choice lor


ya cannot as in even the cap modules will be online lor then there will be very little


uh events that people can come together like you eat in the dining hall also need, to have staggered timings eh so it's like damn sad lah , ya and it's really very different because like (ppc) the last few weeks I was in cap right they already implemented about the dining hall thing that you cannot eat together so they block off the entire dining hall so you can only go down and Dabao right then


like it's damn it's damn weird because like, the I I can don't see people for like even a month then I didn't even know they are still in cap, until like I go down go down buy, go down get dinner then I eh you are still here then I say ya lah ya lah, I'm still here, then I like okay bye bye then one month later then I see them again


, ya and you can't even visit people in the rooms I mean that's the main point of staying together lah like you visit each other right, then in end ya then in the end like, I had to like sit outside on the corridor


then then my friend in the room then I just lie on the floor then I talk to my friend then after that, then apparently I think that's not even allowed because I hear like security guards walking around then I damn scared then I run away , they do they do then you can hear their walkie talkie like like like other people talking to them then you know I damn scared you know like this kind of games right they


they chasing after you one then you have to run past like the walls then they cannot see you like the, corner then I like , very scared, ya but this kind this kind got like repercussions so cannot anyhow play play one


uh demerit points lor or demerit points then you accumulate like a number of points right then they will they will suspend your stay, stay stay it doesn't affect your acads


ya, !wah! suspend my acads right I don't know what to do sia, all I did was sit outside my friend's room that one really <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> Sian eh , uh only two people sign me and my friend


, ya lor, okay lah I, ya ya at first I was damn sad then my friends who who got uh placing next sem then they she also cancelled because she don't really see the need to stay anymore


ya ya as in the friends part wasn't really important to her but like she just felt that the restrictions are too much so she didn't want to stay anymore lor


stupid COVID leh, then <mandarin>我们的:wo men de</mandarin> exchange uh what, it will never be over really it will forever be here it's just that how much the like singapore wants to like open up


and then it also affect <mandarin>我们的:wo men de</mandarin> exchange leh, ya it's a shit hole country to be in now , okay okay but I think right


I think right like they won't force us to not go you know by sem two because it's like almost a year already since the thing started, if they still don't allow K like it's just my opinion lah like if they still don't allow us to go right then it also means that uh other people who wants to go holiday to US also cannot go because like technically it's the same thing


correct, ya lah I agree lah, I feel that they will give us a choice whether to we want to go back like continue our exchange like I don't know about you but for the US I think they will give us a choice then


like because I think the government will let us go back but the NUS side will just advice us not to go but they will still allow us to go because nothing is restricting them, ya but germany should be fine right


uh quite obvious I mean they they only have the virus lah, but US got other things also ,


but but germany their, their COVID how is it like increasing or is it like stabilising, , #swee koon# it's your exchange you should take note of this


#tong lin#, !huh! , #tong lin#


oh oh oh oh oh oh oh , the, the no the no very resounding #tong lin# no #tong lin# are you hearing this #tong lin# are you hearing this


you are also learning german now right


as in <mandarin>什么:shen me</mandarin> kind of optimistic, oh like you mean, oh in terms of exchange one lah oh okay okay as in


I also feel that I I feel optimistic about germany like they I think NUS will still let you go, do you will you go if, NUS allows you to but the situation there is still quite bad, you will go actually same eh but


like like a few days ago I was like I was just casually talking about it right to my mom then she was like no even if NUS allow you to go you must ask me first then I , uh I want to go , , ya because at first she didn't really want me to go US like even before the COVID thing so in the end


because, because like US you know like a lot of gun violence like discrimination against asians that kind of thing, ya so in the end like she rather me go like canada or europe but then like canada also canada is one thing very popular leh so like I feel that everybody wants to go canada so if I apply there I may not even get it then


europe, also another popular one then like also europe is not the best for it's not like they treat their asians damn well also, so like I feel that that one on the same as US, then US also I feel that US got lesser people applying so like I just tried for US lor, and also like I'm interested in US politics ah so so I think that's the like plus point plus point but like my parents are like !huh! US again why you want to always go US


as in like, not that I like it it's just that I like their politics, but I I don't like like how they handle things like, gun violence like the the shit lah like a lot of shitty things going on ah


oh my god no it's not complicated at all you know like like like like before I actually like like when I first started reading up about like news and stuff, I also was like eh !walao! why why the US got like so so so many different things like everyone talking at the same time kind of thing right, but then I realised after you start reading it right


it's very easy to like know who is in what position like what they do what the system is and how the system is built against the people that kind of thing so it's like very interesting because, like europe we follow we follow british system right the west minister thing so like


learning about them is like learning about us, so it's like not very interesting in that sense but like, if you know about US politics kind it's very different like no very few countries in the world actually follow exactly the same as US so like


like and also like there's a lot of things one like not only like the politics side there's also like the supreme court shit there's so many things going on then like there's people running around activist, there's like nobbing there's like governors there's like state senators all so interesting okay I sound like a nerd now


, okay okay ya we don't talk about that anymore very dry, !huh! what


CNN [orh] is it okay I the thing is right like, I know it's a very bad thing but I only read one news outlet and I don't read any other news outlet so like my views are like very aligned with that news outlet then you also know like, US news outlet are like very ideologically aligned so like


ya ya ya so it's like fox news obviously is like the right side then like, like CNN is the left side so like whatever news I I read right it's like obviously skewed towards like whatever the left side wants to wants to like wants to let the people know lah so like


like obviously like I'm more driven with that kind of ideas then if you ask me suddenly to read fox news hor I'll be like !ee! no I don't want !ee!, ya lah but I also understand like, you must read other things also so like a bit sad lah, ya lah


oh my god straits times you know I actually read that like a few years back then I realised, ya ya ya ya as in like because that's the that's the biggest outlet in singapore you can read about singapore news, then I read read read right then I realised, uh


they are always like, talking about the things that PAP do and stuff, then like it's not really like, a two sided thing which is which is very ironically that I'm also doing with the CNN thing now lah like I can talk about straits time like that but I cannot talk about CNN like that so like


ya so I I just I don't know lah like singapore things also nothing much happening so I didn't really read it anymore , what dream, oh my god, what dream


oh my god , you like him sia


oh oh like like the he was talking at seven thirty right or something, i never ,


, what the hell , the PAP chase you


OB marker OB marker , !huh! what mod, !huh! there's an OB marker mod


!huh!, oh you mean the the yale NUS one, !huh!, oh no no I never I I don't need to take GES mods


all the, all the GE mods I don't need to take , ya but we take cap mods eh it's the I think I don't know because some of your mods got like pass fail right


ya but the cap mods are like uh no pass fails and all essays then I'm like , and then I took one one of the, cap mods I took was like linguistic eh it's like what was it ah it was like what's in a word then like my final essay was like talking about the meaning of shag then I'm like


you know you know like shag you know the, we every time say like shag sia like, shag leh what we do today ya that kind of thing, then like I have to write a two thousand word essay on shag then like , I don't know what the hell was I writing eh


oh ya ya that one [orh], I posted where ah I posted in the pol science group right, the now now now dead pol science group, because we only have three people left


ya really eh only, three of us left eh is it only three of us left, ya and you, know like I always take mods with her one right then suddenly she just, drop the bombshell eh like, at the end of, environmental politics suddenly she look at me then I what the hell Kathiar why you looking at me then she actually I change major then I


like you know top ten Anime, betrayals hor , really eh like I still I still think that I thought like the next two years we can still take mods together then she was like no I doing geography now then I


!huh! it's so different some more, no no, like apparently like she all along like she wanted to go geography it's just that she wasn't like she didn't she didn't she don't know whether she wanted to change major or she wanted to take it as a minor ya then apparently like


her a lot of her, friends also taking geography then she like ask them about it and stuff then she okay lah <mandarin>我也是可以:wo ye shi ke yi</mandarin> take geography <mandarin>我不要:wo bu yao</mandarin> pol science Liao then she just jump, , I mean ya lah I


how you know maybe she take chinese one !huh! oh my god at the start at the start I remember there was like, you me brian eunice Kathiar, uh no alex just took the intro mod he he wasn't even intending to take then uh


oh ya aloy, then then, uh still got lucas, lucas <mandarin>还有:hai you</mandarin> ethan ethan , no but I heard ethan still taking, ethan still taking pol science but just that he didn't he don't care about us


, no lucas is, fine lucas is lucas is quite friendly, ya lucas because I took I took la porri's mod with him ya then we, same tutorial then we just like we always in the same group and all then he quite friendly one but he switch over to global studies


ya so like, the two a bit dumber one, and the very clever one , the leader


sounds very familiar, some more , eh <mandarin>我我的:wo wo de</mandarin> chinese, like quite bad <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> leh


ya that's the problem lor , like I literally never ever, I after <mandarin>报章报导:bao zhang bao dao</mandarin> in secondary school I never, ever, wrote any chinese words since I was sixteen years old already


ya and honestly I found it as a problem but I don't I just don't feel compelled to go and solve that problem , that one of course lah


if I don't remember that one right I cannot, be like my my my ethnic group cannot be called chinese already, ya mine is just, english not even Angmoh just english,


what the #swee koon# , it's none of the above, no, hi #swee koon# <mandarin>你在讲什么:ni zai jiang shen me</mandarin>


oh really ah , Huang Huang, is it Huang, oh oh wait so so Chai is your surname lah


I never call, I never call you in chinese before what ,


how can you translate #swee koon# I don't know, #swee koon# is hokkien, oh I'm also hokkien, what the


, uh Liao, ya, no you're not


okay I know I know


!aiya! but I really don't deny it lah my chinese really quite bad, , !aiya!, ya, !aiya! some more like my chinese already not very good right then I still go and take korean then I'm like


korean two


ya as in the good thing about NUS is that, it's free one thing second secondly the bad the main bad thing that I don't want to take anymore is that it will pull down my cap , ya ya ya like as in like I don't think I'm very strong in the language so in the end like everybody who rise up to like level three and above right they are already like damn like they already have the foundations there because korean people I mean not korean people korean one


and two people right they already have they already have background knowledge of it so in the end if they, go to level three level four they are already like damn good and like I'm fighting against all those very good people so like even though I want to learn the language I want to learn it at my own pace hor and not


against all those people like very stressful within thirteen weeks you have to learn like next level and stuff, ya , do what outside


I think like, ya I don't think you should learn another language eh I learn I tell you should I mean you are continuing german or if you want to do it just continue your thai or something but don't learn a third new language that's really like quite it's like you are a


jack of all trades but master of none you know that kind of thing, okay ah you are a master of german ah so like different , , says maria


she still continuing right, but now is like


four, intermediate hor , but if you finish advanced right I think it will open up a lot of doors for you, especially


especially those, international companies or, like embassies or diplomacy right they confirm want if you know german like all the way to level six right they can just say okay then you be in charge of the german affairs or something, !wah! damn Zai sia I mean why cannot


like you can talk about you can talk to the german german people there like you are the only uh minority that can talk to them there, if you think about it, ya it's a very good thing that's that's one of the reasons why I want to continue korean like I want to actually be like like have the chance to talk to the people


there instead, ya instead of like just knowing basic like everyone also knows basic, they everyone is crazy about korean and stuff, but like if you know higher level like writing korean essays that kind of thing like , !wah! that kind of thing right, writing pol science essays in korean


, oh my god ppl I I write my #kim hae jin# essay in korean right she give me straight A plus, , <NEN>


oh my god SM entertainment, no I want to work in like korean embassy or something that's so cool eh


same, ya I also want sia but, in order to work in the embassy you must go through MFA and that's a huge obstacles already, eh no eh not true leh not true leh like


the other time when I went for the MFA talk quite quite a few sems back I forgot when, then they uh just the the MFA people I don't know whether it's fake lah but they said they said that there's this common misconception that , is MFA is stuffed with scholars and not like normal graduates like us then they were like that's not true apparently scholars are the minority here


most of the people that we take in right, are like normal people normal graduate students like us because like they cannot afford to have , uh uh those kind of like ya, too many scholars so like it will it will what did you call that, like make the entire MFA into something like a very elitist thing


I mean it is an elitist thing lah but the mindset everyone will be the same so they need like people who are not like groomed by the governmental system like people like us to actually go in and like offer a different kind of thing, ya ya some more like even though you're
