ya I think giving importance to, friends also like <tamil>ரொம்ப முக்கியம்:romba mukkiyam</tamil> lah


totally agree man like some things you just can't share to your family or parents and then


so ya I I feel like nowaday I talk to my friends more than my parents and I also like share things with my friends more than my parents lah like are you the same also


, true lah it's like it's like we spent so many hours in school and then like school becomes like


and ya lah I don't know


ya true true like, like <tamil>நெனச்சு பாக்கும்போதே கொஞ்சம் கஷ்டமா தான் இருக்கு:nenachu paakkumpothae konjam kashtamaa thaan irukku</tamil> but then have you wondered like how some okay example you talking about western parents right like <tamil>அவங்கெல்லாம் எப்படி:avangellaam eppadi</tamil> ah


like how can they, the parents and the kids are so close and then like, they can like open ah <tamil>எதுவேணாலும் பேசுவாங்க:ethuvenaalum pesuvaanga</tamil> so what do you think is like the


I don't know the difference between <tamil>அங்க உள்ள:anga ulla</tamil> western culture and <tamil>இங்க உள்ள:inga ulla</tamil> asian culture


and sometimes when I see my friends like okay so some of my friends they say ah oh


I am okay my parents are like my best friend uh <tamil>நான் என் அம்மா கூட ரொம்ப:naan en amma kooda romba</tamil> close ah <tamil>இருப்பேன் அம்மா கூட ரொம்ப:iruppaen amma kooda romba</tamil> close ah <tamil>இருப்பேன்:iruppaen</tamil> and then over here it it made my <tamil>அம்மா:amma</tamil> is like, how I wish I can be like you


like why is it not the same for all of us, I know man


, I know right, ya, ya that's why


ah like <tamil>இருக்கனும்ல அவங்க கூட:irukkanumla avanga kooda</tamil> then because if they don't share with you the smallest things they wouldn't share with you the bigger things in future


if <tamil>எனக்கொரு புள்ள இருந்தானா அவன்:enakkoru pulla irunthaanaa avan</tamil> school <tamil>க்கு போயிட்டு:kku poyittu</tamil> then ah, okay then after that he come back home then he say [orh] <tamil>இன்னைக்கு என்:innaikku en</tamil> class lah <tamil>நம்ம இது வரஞ்சோம் இன்னைக்கு என்:namma ithu varanjom innaikku en</tamil> class lah <tamil>இந்த பொண்ணு என்கிட்ட பேசுனா:intha ponnu enkitta pesunaa</tamil> ah <tamil>இந்த பையன் என்கிட்ட பேசுனா:intha paiyan enkitta pesunaa</tamil> I had oh I got a new friend today then when we parents show like


the interest and the eager to listen more about it, then in the future <tamil>அந்த புள்ளயே நம்மகிட்ட நிறைய:antha pullayae nammakitta niraiya</tamil> share <tamil>பண்ணும்:pannum</tamil> because you see the smallest thing matters lah that's what I feel, but ya, I'm sleepy


I really wish too I feel like <tamil>நம்ம:namma</tamil> generation is a bit


it's a bit shitty because there is like a lot of transition especially indians we talked about indian's culture right, the transition is very bad but then all of us are working hard to break all those stupid stigmas and stuff


but, I'm also hoping for the good


(uh huh)


there's this fellow there's this dude


and I'm like dude then from that day onwards I kind of don't want to trust people that much so like I'm just like keeping my distance first lah unless I know the person like <tamil>ரொம்ப தெரிஞ்சுட்டு:romba therinjuttu</tamil> like and stuff and like okay with it


but trust is actually a big thing to me also so, ya I value that


but at the same time


I mean now I I, I don't know what to talk about


ya man, and now it's just like seven minutes , and we still got like, we still got like fifty minutes to go so, ya


do I like my what, twenty years <tamil>நம்ம வந்து:namma vanthu</tamil> in twenties uh, I feel like


I feel like <tamil>இந்த வயசுல:intha vayasula</tamil> I should be doing more, like more than what I'm doing like, I see people like, having fun, uh jolly ah <tamil>இருந்துகிட்டு:irunthukittu</tamil> then they're just like living their life in their


teenhood and adulthood and then I feel like I'm not doing enough of that, and, I want do more of it


what do you think ah


true true lah like ya , that's very true


but you studying and doing together what


, , I get it I get it, ,


, true true they will never understand I mean it's not that they will they won't understand <tamil>ஆனா சில விஷயம் நம்ம சொல்லும் போது:aanaa sila vishayam namma sollum pothu</tamil> it's like a total alien to them because they have never heard such thing example supper then I don't think they know what is supper in the first place


like ya we know but they don't know but so ya lah, !huh!


so I'm supposed to eat here and then I go out and eat also is it,


ya ya, you know,


I hate it, I hate it like, !wah! I hate it man, I hate it like I hate it when ya <tamil>ஒரு வாட்டி தப்பு பண்ணிடோம் ஒரு வாட்டி என்னமோ பண்ணிட்டோம்:oru vaatti thappu pannitom oru vaatti ennamo pannitom</tamil> but then they bring it up


okay ya, then they bring it up for like because the first point to backup their idea is that mah like coming home at three AM and that's what they say like oh


, shit lah bullshit lah


!wah!


, ya, , , ya, man


ya ya oh my god oh my god


usual pattern lah so the moment they wake up right I also have to wake up, you know because, my father sweeps the whole house like he just loves to clean he loves cleaning and then he will just clean nonstop afterward he come he will just start cleaning cleaning cleaning sweeping ah wiping and everything so


so like every morning <tamil>நம்ம வந்து:namma vanthu</tamil> room lah <tamil>தான தூங்கிட்டு இருப்போம்:thana thoongittu iruppom</tamil> and then uh my mother will wake up first followed by my, two brothers, and then followed by, me lah I mean


sometimes I want to sleep longer, but then knowing that my brothers already woke up and my father wants to clean the room, will just force me to wake up faster you know, it's just so shit


ya, but ya lah


, true true, ya, ya I get it I know right


that's why like, like I don't know for me I just feel like, I am very restricted in my house like <tamil>நான் வந்து வெளியில தங்குனேனா என்குனாச்சு வெளில இருந்தேனா:naan vanthu veliyila thangunaenaa engunaachu velila irunthaenaa</tamil> I feel like I will be able to do more much more


but I really want to move out and I don't know how is that gonna happen


share rental, one, one, okay lah that mean then if you want to divide it's like <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> three fifty eh two fifty sorry


!wow!, unless, ya ya unless you are doing like part time so example morning <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> school <tamil>போயிட்டு:poyittu</tamil> then evening night


part time work then, imagine ah, both of it take your time and then


ya, , you're not my daughter


yes yes yes yes, ya


problem ya, because, technically <tamil>அந்த காலத்து:antha kaalathu</tamil> generation people think that oh <tamil>நீ தனியா இருந்தனா:nee thaniyaa irunthanaa</tamil> you have no support you can't do things, later you go to the bad


thing, and then you know who's gonna save you that's the kind of thinking that they have and then like <tamil>அந்த மாரி:antha maari</tamil> thinking lah <tamil>நம்லுகில்ல நம்ம வந்து:namlukilla namma vanthu</tamil> oh<tamil>அது பண்ணனும் இது பண்ணனும் நினைக்குறோம்:athu pannanum ithu pannanum ninaikurom</tamil> but then, they're just not comfortable with it, like ya


ya ya, , ya ya ya actually they said


, then <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> if you reach a certain age that's when you'll start thinking about oh how will it be like if I have a partner like you know share feelings share this that like


support of pillar something like that, so, I feel like, I don't actually like age does matters like <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> age <tamil>க்கு போன்னோனே:ku ponnonae</tamil> then you will start thinking about different stuff like what you're thinking I mean right now we are like


and also we should have like <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> proper, financial stability lah, that's that's ya, men


eighteen, so, ya ya ya, coffee you choose coffee like


oh what then go up for talk for five minutes and then come down <tamil>என்னமா புடிச்சிருக்கா:ennamaa pudichirukkaa</tamil> like ah <tamil>புடுச்சிருக்கு:puduchirukku</tamil> , how did you decide your life partner in that five minutes I don't understand


ah ya ya ya ya correct


that time we were talking about arts arts <tamil>வேலைல இருந்தானா இல்ல ஒரு:velaila irunthaana illa oru</tamil> musician or something like that oh cannot cannot already cannot <tamil>இவனெல்லாம் உனக்கு கெட்டி வைக்கமாட்டேன்:ivanellaam unakku ketti vaikkamaattaen</tamil> because I don't think he's going to support you like that


is is like, okay straight away okay, ya ya ya oh my god


, , , ya


, they miss out that factor like <tamil>அந்த:antha</tamil> person <tamil>ஓட:oda</tamil> character ability all miss out who knows like you wouldn't know if this that <tamil>அந்த ஆளு:antha aalu</tamil> is gonna be a abuser or what


ya ya ya, one year, !wow!


that means, that means example, uh, that means example if, if a person is gonna get, example if a person is gonna get match made


and then, the match made partners <tamil>ரெண்டு பேரும் வந்து:rendu perum vanthu</tamil> must, like what do you think


, aunts, oh


, ya , exactly


!huh!, , oh


double standards, ya they'll be like disgusted


I understand what's double standard


, image and status, !wow!


!huh!, wait, oh tell me about it


the posting ya ya correct correct,


I have no idea for me like diploma I don't know what what is the abbreviations


, ya, like I feel like I've seen a lot of invitations like that in india like, and especially right <tamil>அந்த பையன் பையனுக்கு வந்து:antha paiyan paiyanukku vanthu</tamil> what I don't know BC all these things then when I look at the girl's name nothing there you know


I would I will always see that I'll always wonder is that most of the time is like that, okay then sometime <tamil>பையனுக்கு வந்து இருக்கும்:paiyanukku vanthu irukkum</tamil> like <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> at least three postings at once then the girl is like one okay okay it's okay and then sometime


I don't know it's like, okay I didn't thought from like <tamil>நீ சொன்னது எதும் நான் கேக்கல:nee sonnathu yethum kekala</tamil> but then I think you got a good point lah like, why must put the education posting there to show your worth like you're more than that like why are you showing that worth


showing off showing off,


dude same same same same dude , , same shit


then what she say, ya definitely


and , I was I was actually staying with my <tamil>சித்திஸ்:chitthis</tamil> house for awhile because they, bought not they not bought they rented a house first so <tamil>அங்க போம்போது:anga pompothu</tamil> then uh


I realise girls in <tamil>பாண்டிச்சேரி:pondicherry</tamil> right they actually literally wear T-shirt, bands and everything because it's not common in my place it's not a common at all then ya, then when I


so so then I like when I came to <tamil>பாண்டிச்சேரி:pondicherry</tamil> then when I look at them right I was like so shocked eh


then <tamil>அங்க மேலையும்:anga melaiyum</tamil> got they all got like kitchen toilet <tamil>எல்லாமே இருக்கு:ellaamae irukku</tamil> then <tamil>நம்ம வந்து கீழ இருப்போம்:namma vanthu keela iruppom</tamil> so, the the owners right they got two daughters

like !wow! like that you know [orh] singapore lah <tamil>படிச்சுட்டு வந்துருக்காங்களா:padichittu vanthurukkaangalaa</tamil> like that that kind of thing so then what happens like, everyone knows that I'm studying IT <tamil>ஆனா எங்க சித்தி வந்து அந்த:aanaa enga chithi vanthu antha</tamil> father to the owner she said [orh]


ah <tamil>இவ வந்து:iva vanthu</tamil> aeronautical engineer <tamil>படிக்குறா:padikuraa</tamil> like that, she said that then <tamil>நான் வந்து:naan vanthu</tamil> I I don't know who to look at whether to look at him or whether to look at her then I'll just stun I also like looking, looking then I look at him then


I was like ah I just nod my head, and then, after he left right then I <tamil>அவங்கள கூட்டு வெச்சு கேட்டேன்:avangala kootu vechu kettaen</tamil> like <tamil>நான்:naan</tamil> aeronautical engineering <tamil>படிக்கலையே:padikkalayae</tamil> I'm studying IT isn't it then then he say


that you know it's good to like say it like you know it's just she say it's just a way to you know like

err nobody eats it was was quite nice lah it's quite nice, ya you have to watch, so we have we have


ya actually the master trailer got a lot of, , err how to say, ya correct, a lot of hints, a lot of hints but I didn't really I didn't really pay attention until watching it after a lot of times so it's a really


so I so at first right it's like fair moment you just want to watch watch the trailer or the teaser just for the person so skip watching that, after all I started to realise okay err what's it in the teaser what are they trying to show us so actually there there are a few people who who decode the entire teaser and trailer so <tamil>அவங்க வேலயே என்னன்னா ஒவ்வொரு:avanga velayae ennanaa ovvoru</tamil> teaser uh trailer uh <tamil>வந்தா:vanthaa</tamil> they decode their entire trailer


so basically the trailer and teaser is about what's what's coming in the movie what so they will try to depict okay so what's coming in the movie what's a related to the movie and all that, so it's it's really interesting


there are people who do this can you imagine, people <tamil>ஒடய:odaya</tamil> full time job <tamil>யே இதா:yae ithaa</tamil> , , ya I mean everybody's making money from YouTube


<tamil>அந்த:antha</tamil> bell icon ah click <tamil>பண்ணுங்க:pannunga</tamil> subscribed <tamil>பண்ணுங்க:pannunga</tamil> like <tamil>பண்ணுங்க:pannunga</tamil> share <tamil>பண்ணுங்க:pannunga</tamil> [dey], , !aiyo! !aiyo!, I think, we we could have we could have tone down a bit but it's okay


ya so we we we didn't take twenty percent we took the fifty percent, sometime we will sometime we went sixty seventy percent but it's okay it's a mixture


yes, ya, I think it's a it's a very good software I guess, for


ya it could be tamil people or because they say malay speaking also what so could be malay speaking as well, ha, probably it's some voice translate or something lah, it's probably a voice translator such that they they can they can they can take the language and translate them into english


something like that, so I think the AI needs to be able to understand the language transition, so like like, tamil lah <tamil>பேசுறனா:pesuranaa</tamil> tamil leh <tamil>யே பேசனும்:yae pesanum</tamil> I'm talking in english you don't completely talk in english


but it's hard while some people mix the languages


ya, hopefully be able to, to get this


, ah, no actually the the first one wasn't really wasn't really dominated I think this one is a bit dominated


err but I think you plus minor should be okay lah, it should be okay it must be okay because one hours a really long time, all about set talk


let's see how that goes


and then what's going on, so basically we are the events company so we do photography videography we do events planning we do decor everything lah basically on event so when it comes to like a wedding


so one of the elements required in the wedding you need photography and videography you need err you need the event venue you need the decor for the event venue you need to plan the event, like a event flow and then err you need the wedding car you need err catering


and you you, you need DJ so basically we have uh we have all these we have all these so we do planning as well, and we also do a #la carte# services, so primarily what we are famous for is photography videography because the planning wise mostly nowadays people do it themselves


because some people like a #la carte#, so they they want they want a specific photo or videographer they want a specific caterer they want a specific uh person who can come and give the err err DJ do the DJ systems because they have a lot of friends you know they want to support a lot of people so you do a #la carte# but there are also other people like you know what I'm just I'm just gonna handover all responsibility to you you just figure everything for me just let me know I'm gonna pay you the money


so there's two ways lah, so it was affected from from march until july but july end end onwards we picked up already, so if nowadays we're having a lot of COVID weddings, so COVID weddings mean fifty person hundred person a lot of people are happy with it because the thing is when you when you have a bigger wedding your cost is bigger


so many people are many people are, ya there are people are very practical nowadays they invite the very very close knit err friends and family that's it and then they they have the wedding so it's lesser lesser amount of money


and so they have a smaller wedding they prefer to have a bigger reception or probably they want to spend the money on their new house which is a good thing lah because nowadays weddings are really expensive, it's like the food the decor err and everything is is not cheap


even though I'm I'm running a company I'm still saying lah it's not cheap because , err no matter how much you so no matter how much money we put right people want to negotiate and at certain point of time we can't go lower than that because we were making a loss


so it's it's it's really it's really a very tough period too I really appreciate people who are doing right now because a lot of weddings or got cancel this year, uh and those people are like uh I don't understand uh I mean I understand those people because they want everybody there because weddings one time occasion but it's it's a way where you can also save money because wedding is a lot of money can you imagine a venue could be easily two K to five K


the food can be easily ten to fifteen, ya ya because you imagine you inviting a wedding err okay per person err I'm talking about big weddings lah, three hundred four hundred five hundred person normally


ya so err overall lah <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> wedding <tamil>ன்னு பாத்தா:nu paathaa</tamil> average is around thirty K, overall for a ball room a photo video decor food everything DJ and everything lah


around thirty K but now if you during COVID you can finish between ten to fifteen K, because lesser people lesser food err not very extravagant decor err so everything is lesser lah so your cheap ya ya


you are spending less, so there are a lot of people who sort most people who postponed to next year they want a Lavish wedding so they're saving up for that and those who did this year err bit mores part a other way lah


I would actually encourage a lot of people to do it this time, because you can save money so you you you don't need to go and complain to people above we <tamil>நீ என்ன கல்யாணத்துக்கு கூப்புடவே இல்ல:nee enna kalyaanathukku koopudavae illa</tamil> ya it's a well known fact sorry <tamil>என்னால ஒங்கள கூப்புட முடியல:ennaala ongala koopuda mudiyala</tamil> what they do they do livestream service


so you live stream service so they live stream the entire wedding, so you just on the TV at home and you watch lah, ya nowadays it's happening a lot nowadays it's alot of uh live stream


ya so now life stream so is very good err just pay a bit just just I mean obviously you will cut down a lot of cost so you can afford to live streaming it's not really expensive also, so you just do a live streaming and it's okay lah it's done, so it's it's good it's been good we are actually getting a lot of weddings


almost almost almost every weekend we have one wedding, yup so we're a bit then we're having, not really because how it looks at it right a loss meaning ah meaning you need to keep a certain amount of money to survive every month but the thing is this is not our rice bowl


we are not working full-time, we are practically student who are studying and some of them who are who have a full time job and and so this is just like side income, so basically you you're just want a side income lah that's all


err so other than that you are not making a loss a loss meaning like without this money ah you can not do anything, so basically this this whole business is just a profit based now uh how the way you can look at it is because we invested in equipments so <tamil>அதுக்கு அதோடய:athukku athodaya</tamil> returns <tamil>வர்ரது வந்து கொஞ்சோ:varrathu vanthu konjo</tamil> slow ah <tamil>இருக்கு இப்ப:irukku ippa</tamil> but <tamil>இப்ப:ippa</tamil> pick up <tamil>ஆனதால:aanaathaala</tamil> you will come a bit faster


some of them has been okay like the business was bad obviously because isn't this you can't take, don't have we don't have office, we don't have a office we keep the stuff at so me and my partner we keep it in our houses so we if if the client usually we have all our client meetings online like WhatsApp err and and and and Instagram and Facebook so very few people want to meet


and if you want to meet we meet outside lah, oh <tamil>ஏன்னா:yaenna</tamil> decor <tamil>எல்லாமே:ellaamae</tamil> handmade <tamil>எல்லாமே பண்ணி வரணும்:ellaamae panni varanum</tamil> err decor <tamil>வந்து எப்புடினா:vanthu eppudinaa</tamil> it's a theme


so you have to like for to five or six different types of themes and you have to have a #la carte# where you can mix and match so we have we have a partner company, we have their in house decor they have all their decor they ask they have been in the market for fifteen years lah they have decor worth hundred thousand decor only


so after after you go for three to four events with that decor you can take back the money already, so err after taking back the money it's all profit for them and even though they earn profit it's not like take the profit and you just put in our pockets you know it's a continual real investment business because you need change camera err change camera change lens change err videography equipments then you keep upgrading


so obviously you will take back of money for your own own income but also to keep upgrading, ya so since we are since we are students and we don't have we didn't we didn't put a lot of money for investment we have to keep rotating our profits


so we started out we started out with nothing, we started off with my own camera and my friends own camera right now we have our own <tamil>அதலா:athalaa</tamil> <tamil>வித்துட்டாச்சு:vithutaachu</tamil> then we lot a we are for own pool of equipment our equipment now what is twenty K


so we but it it it was really a tough time we took we took three three years to come come here, it's a lot of time investment err a lot of hard work so err and and the thing about this business is even though it's a very you can't you can't do this business full time ah


and you can't do this full time if one day you decide okay you know what err I can't do this anymore, you can sell everything and take back the money that's what good about this, so it's like it's all equipment what, end of the day their the the equipment will depreciate but we can still sell back and buy err and get back the money lah but <tamil>நம்ம என்ன பண்றோனா:namma enna pandronaa</tamil> err as times go by almost every year or we try to change new equipment we sell the old one buy a new one so we are keeping in trend and also err maintain the value of the product


, super


, okay, ya so, issac lah so after that I think since then like you pretty much like, most of them pretty much loss the trust in him lah like he's


but uh ya so far you honestly ask me right I'm actually, the most comfortable with err, now thinking about it ah it's russell, see, as in in terms of character wise like most comfortable in terms of character wise <tamil>நம்மளுக்கெல்லா தெரியும் அவனுக்கு:nammalukellaa theriyum avanukku</tamil> short temper <tamil>அது இதுன்னு அது தவிர்த்து:athu ithunu athu thavirthu</tamil> like even he's short temper also right he's changed to a man now that he's not the one that you know like he will like go provoke a fight or something now he's


based on my, encounter so far right he has changed from there ya he doesn't do his job properly ya one days like sometimes he drink then he sleeps then he don't do his duty and all that but as a person of it if you were to just talk to in terms of as a person right he


his character is, compared to the others right I would say it's much better, personally that's how I feel lah lah, , excuse me, actually I I I am still in touch with russell err because you know he's living in the yishun area right so I do meet him once


, where, uh uh uh, ,


okay lah but this girl he's currently with he's being with her for very long but then again I heard because there are some issue as well right, I don't know I heard stories like the like he beat her or something I don't know


I don't even know if it's true, because I've seen both of them together like there was once when I went to eat then he was like brother my girlfriend also joining then I was like yeah sure then err I mean he ask me lah if it's okay then I was like ya sure no worries, then, it doesn't seems like any sort of like err it seems awkward err not not it doesn't seems awkward at all lah it seems perfectly fine


but then again I really don't know lah honestly to be honest,


, then err, ya repeated day numbers always a lot


no I didn't, yup


I don't think he invited me lah , he did, he's


if wait he's twenty first was last year right, okay lah that means he same twenty first as mine he's err wait err, [dey] I really can't remember know I swear


you got invite meh, you know I wasn't in the group back then or what I really can't remember, serious eh <tamil>சத்தியமா நா அப்புடில்லடா:sathiyamaa naa appudilladaa</tamil> I came for Nirmal what, I think minimum is dawn who invited, Litmus the one who invited


for his twenty first lah,


, , , , (mmhmm),


, , , uh


!wah! he is he also not from this condominium, ah, jesus christ I mean if he's not from this condominium ah like he really talk a lot lah in that sense, uh


, ya ya I remember, ya ya ya I remember ya


so that's good lah lucky you manage to, de-escalate the situation, I mean like not de-escalate situation you made made them realise after the situation which is which is the most important part lah I mean they never realise at all then ya


ya then it was damn bad but after that I think, I think ever since JC army already right then they use already


ya, , no we want to be angry but we can't be angry


[orh] okay, uh, oh okay okay okay okay I understand what you trying to say yes yes yes


uh uh, uh, uh, correct correct correct correct completely ah <tamil>புரியுது:puriyuthu</tamil> , like rationally think even in the heat of the moment that's what it is


ya that's good that's good, as in, but uh, ah, , ya


, (hmm), , but ya generally <tamil>ஏனா:yaenaa</tamil> ya I I've never had the issue of err getting angry you know with like generally like


anyone so far lah actually <tamil>கோவோ இருக்கு:kovo irukku</tamil> like ya but <tamil>நீ சொன்ன மாதிரி முக்காவாசி:nee sonna maathiri mukkaavasi</tamil> time <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> I don't want to escalate the situation so I will just like err you know err like de-escalate the situation then you just move on kind of thing ya


that's true that's true, actually how's australia so far like ever since you went there how how was the food there people there like like you make new friends and stuff for how is it like


shower , , , , uh,


, , , like how ah


ah, uh, , ,


, , , , well leveled, , ,


, !wah! is some communist system or what, ,


, ya different tips , , ,


uh, , ,


, interesting, I mean I think ah a few other countries also like this kind of err developed countries they have the similar systems something like this whether you are working or not like you'll be getting some money


from the government, , I mean ya definitely, so so far like there's there's not a girl that attracted your eye or something like that like you want to get to know or something


, , !hanna! don't shout it out ,


<tamil>இப்ப என்னத்த பத்தி பேசுற:ippa ennatha paththi pesura</tamil> , they riot, , [dey] <tamil>நா என்னடா செஞ்ச:naa ennada senja</tamil> I was just asking what are you talking about


solid (hmm), we learn upon, , ah, say yourself


ah okay uh, , well uh what to talk about, you know how COVID is just damn messed up like you know, apparently they say that this whole COVID thing itself right it's a it's a major plot by big governments to


uh, to commercialise the situation that is err to put it in the right words is basically that big pharmaceutical together with government are using, COVID as a


as a, as a commercial uh as something to be upon like a commercialised upon so they can make money out of it so err apparently like, for example right apparently they said that err the the vaccine for COVID right it will be available way earlier but then


err there were they didn't they didn't do such because they wanted the spread to be much extensively how they say that it will be available like within a shortest span of time is actually because err err it's it's it's becomes the same family of corona virus COVID nineteen becomes the same family of corona viruses as SARS so the thing about all this corona viruses there are some things in common which they analyse and they know that this there's this not exactly vaccines it's a medication actually which which


okay, oh ya so,


I was just talking about how they are actually commercialising the whole err COVID nineteen situation that in in actual fact right it's not it it could have we could have been mitigated away long back but they didn't want to because they wanted the spread to be greater then they could really make good money out of seliing the vaccines and everything and how like not only big pharmaceutical companies are into this but also a lot of governments are into this because they are also earning money


and they say that one of the person who is also has something to do with this is bill gates, ya, ya apparently, because he's earning much more from it lah


and some more when he like what whatever he's gonna promote or what right it's gonna it's gonna how to say people are gonna take it because it's bill gates you see, in fact right have you heard of lancet study


lancet <tamil>ன்டுறது வந்து:ndurathu vanthu</tamil> like it's a very famous publication for scientific journals and articles so if our article like say about a particular scientific research without topic lah <tamil>யே வந்து:yae vanthu</tamil> if an article is being published by lancet right it's usually very reliable like any scientific author he can just take it and he can rest assured knowing that oh this is a reliable piece of information he don't have to go analyse the data by the author or anything like that because lancet would have already done everything in great depth so they have a like a certain like a value to their brand like they're well known for their credibility but err


basically <tamil>என்னா நடந்துச்சுனா இப்ப இன்னொருத்த எனக்கு:ennaa nadanthuchchunaa ippa innorutha enakku </tamil> phone <tamil>அடிக்குரா:adikkuraa</tamil> err


, (ppc)


, I mean I also don't ,


then semester two is the best sabatier thought I got damn angry because


err my mom <tamil>அம்மா வந்து:amma vanthu</tamil> like I ask what by like basic err pocket money like then and there when I need only like I don't ask about but sometimes when she's angry she will anyhow say stuff lah so one of the thing she said is <tamil>நீ என்ன எப்ப பாத்தாலும் காசுன்னு கேட்டுட்டே இருக்குற:nee enna eppa paathalum kaasunnu kettutae irukkura</tamil> then ah I I got pissed off then after that I stopped asking her so the entire semester two of my year one is


err all the way till the end I never ask then I think she also started feeling guilty then after that she she call then she err towards the end when my exam final paper or stuff then only she started giving me money back so back err like <tamil>அப்பப்ப நா கேக்கும் போது:appapa naa kekkum pothu</tamil> like <tamil>வேணுனா கேளு நா குடுப்ப:venunaa kelu naa kuduppa</tamil> then she said that so err ah <tamil>இவதா:ivathaa</tamil> I didn't ask <tamil>தேவபடும் போது கேக்குறது:thevapadum pothu kekkurathu</tamil> ah <tamil>அது மாதிரி:athu maathiri</tamil> so our back then ya I was like working a lot as well as err during my stuff to like you know generally like maintain everything like I was paying for everything for myself kind of thing like my concession for my EZ-Link card for because I travel everyday to university what so


err on top of that my pocket money printing items buying stuff and all the basic necessities lah except fees of course lah, , , actually fees also I didn't get it from them I pay using Edusave account for my first two semester


ya correct so I use first semester I use my PESA account second one ah I use my siblings one because they also not going to use so and even then also like most likely I'll be finishing then I will be getting a job also right then I can support my younger brother or something what for his studies


you get what I mean, , <tamil>அப்புலா இல்லடா:appulaa illadaa</tamil> , but ya


actually, , super


ah as in if you are you're gonna like confess to a girl right, say you confess to the girl, and the girl tells you like for example


let's say like a girls like she's like uh she said that uh she starts by saying thanks for sharing with me maybe she's nice lah okay lah actually she's a very nice person also so then err sh- she's she said this though thanks for sharing with me finally


but then she was like ah, ya, so that means she was waiting for me to sorry


so actually <tamil>நா நா:naa naa</tamil> actually <tamil>ஓட்ட வாய் ஓட்ட அது என்னனு சொல்லிட்டேன்:otta vaai otta athu ennaanu sollittaen</tamil> but ya basically ya something along those lines so err so, <tamil>இல்ல இல்லலல்ல:illa illalla</tamil> as in like I told you that I am the one like this happened to him to be fair I was talking like from a third person point of view but then now ya


, so err err I don't know like I I could have asked it lah but then she's send a few other things she was like but I I have to tell you I I've been talking to this guy recently, so I so I I just want to be honest with you but is the like she uh like then she put in uh I know him for err just for a few days for the just she put in capital then a few days


and then she said like err, ya but uh there's nothing like we're we are just talking and stuff like that then I don't know I don't know what to get out of it like I really don't understand, so I was like, it's actually it's actually someone I know lah is from long back it's just that uh I ya somehow like because I I I just had the thing for her for very long then finally I was like okay fine


what's the worst that could happen she will say no right so no I was serious like you know <tamil>நம்ம:namma</tamil> register it's better to expect the worst right so I was like okay ya she's gonna probably say no <tamil>பரவால:paravaala</tamil> we'll just like tell her


she was like uh, why why what took you so long to tell me what because basically I think I can understand from her point of view, uh I got to know later that okay she's just talking to this guy but this guy is head over heels over her and then it's a bit busted of a move right like all of a sudden she just


uh say like jump to me kind of thing you get what me, ya so , that's the thing now <tamil>நா:naa</tamil> I mean after that she was like err what what took you so long Kathir but I she's she end off by saying that but I'm sorry Kathir err


ya I'm sorry Kathir I'm I'm I'm really talking to this guy so I was like okay I got the idea then I was like thanks for being honest with me ah it's alright ah, appreciate err appreciate it and as for [dah] she ask me a few other questions I I told her like it's more like those questions would require me to express how I feel and stuff like that so I was like I think there's no point of err answering this question uh at this point I I mean I don't think okay I put it in a nicer way I told her that I don't think at this point I will have to address these questions anymore


ya something like that then uh ya just ended like that then the thing is , after that okay my sister knows her so my sister err and her like they met up for okay because she she's actually very good at makeup and stuff so my sister and her met up to do this thing like makeup related stuff at her house like you know she teach my sister makeup and stuff like that


because she actually went to get a diploma or something like that like they for cosmetics and something like that ya, , so err, ya so when they met up then ah <tamil>அக்கா:akka</tamil> my my sister back then didn't know it was within like a week this happen like she is the one actually because she doesn't she's actually very busy as well so she's the one who actually suddenly out of sudden texted <tamil>அக்கா:akka</tamil> because <tamil>அக்கா:akka</tamil> text her but err she didn't reply at times to her because she was pretty busy so


why suddenly she texted then she said that, oh err she's willing to teach my <tamil>அக்கா:akka</tamil> now, then after that err while doing that then she told <tamil>அக்கா:akka</tamil> about this lah like after everything finish after, they had the session of their


they had their makeup session I think she told <tamil>அக்கா:akka</tamil> this happened and then she was telling <tamil>அக்கா:akka</tamil> the same thing what what took him so long to tell <tamil>அக்கா:akka</tamil> and stuff like that and the thing is her mother knows me as well and her mother apparently likes me, ya so her mother was like, asking my sister to go ask me like <tamil>நா சொன்னனு கேளு:naa sonnannu kelu</tamil> ya it like because okay I knew her since secondary school she's a secondary school friend


so she didn't go JC she went ah okay she had to redo her O levels because during her O levels she was going through some sort of family problems and stuff lah so she couldn't do well kind of thing, so she redid her O levels then err after that she went polytechnic then err ya now she's working also lah her family got lot of err problems itself like her parents divorced her mom remarried err her mom is a very nice lady and ya I'm happy for her lah the the dad that they the dad is err


, he's got issues kind of thing lah, so err, so err I've she has told me all this and stuff so back then the thing is ya of course I didn't know like what criminal and stuff like that but uh I she I don't know whether she's she was thinking that


she's not good enough for me because okay you know how they also have their insecurities right so she probably see me as someone is like oh high achiever oh you when JC <tamil>கு போயிருக்கா:ku poyirukaka</tamil> oh <tamil>இப்ப:ippa</tamil> university lah <tamil>இருக்கா:irukkaa</tamil> something like that but all of that doesn't matter those are really like superficial things, so maybe that's why she okay ah of course I can't expect her to go and tell me but she never did think but the thing is apparently she never did think that I would ever consider her


ya, so I mean I don't know the dilemma I have I had actually I had lah I already know the answer to it but I had was whether she's expecting me to like chase her kind of thing like, that I convinced her that something like that or if I should just let it be and I realised


I I came to a decision after thinking for very long that I should just let it be lah like because it's personally if you ask me right it destroys the genuine aspect of a relationship or something oh she's already talking another guy something and this guy is like crazy over and suddenly like now one day then <tamil>நா வந்து:naa vanthu</tamil> then <tamil>இப்புடி:ippudi</tamil> jumb <tamil>பண்ணி:panni</tamil> I don't want too much commotion so like she said she's still like like you know she's taking it slow she's talking to the guy and everything so see how it goes the guy is crazy of her but she's taking it slow now


so err in that sense like see if it ends up good for them if it doesn't end up also like I I'm not I'm not like I I in fact I err apparently like ever since his she started talking to him like there's been good things, good changes that she's been making to her life so in that sense of


I am happy for her so I'm like actually oh in decades it's actually a good thing lah like this guy and stuff, because err her she she previously her previous boyfriend were like pretty messed up, ya so, err how to put it


, , <tamil>இல்ல இல்ல:illa illa</tamil> you're you're right correct,


true true true, <tamil>அதாண்டா அது சரி நா:athaandaa athu sari naa</tamil> after that I am just like nah actually ya I try to forget and everything I mean you know of course it will be hard like especially when you go confessed someone and everything right so ya I tried to move on the things I was like focusing on finals and everything but then this thing about her encounter with my sister happen and in which


apparently she she was she asked so many times like why you never tell earlier made me feel like she like oh maybe I should have made the move earlier


you can't ya it's a if situation exactly


ya ya, ya lah she knows lah so she she that's why she never ask me anything, , so I seen like she told me this but after that like she she avoids the topic


I I'm like ya just focus on my things whatever I want to do just do forget it like like you know just keep myself occupied and move on ya,


how many relationship have you been with in ah, one ah [orh],


are there like other relapses of memories now or have you, oh, !wah! that's good that's good


, , , yes definitely


, , you know lah I embrace it already it's just that forgetting part is hard, as in like I I don't mind if anyone to approach me now right and like ask me oh did you do this or something ya I'll be fine with it like <tamil>எனக்கு அந்த:enakku antha</tamil> embracing part lah <tamil>பிரச்சின இல்ல:pirachchina illa</tamil> it's just that


ya so ya that's why I'm trying to keep myself as much as occupied as possible lah like, I mean okay, err back then also like you know I wasn't planning to actually good ah has well it was actually a friend of mine like because I've been telling her like I'm considering and stuff then he's the who convinced me november seventh actually


so that's been like what a month to a close to the end of the month already so ya it's been sometime lah, yup, so, , ya <tamil>அதுக்கு அப்புறம் வந்து:athukku appuram vanthu</tamil>


err okay lah now now okay lah as in it's pretty much done there's nothing <tamil>அப்ப வந்து பண்ணது அதுக்கு அப்புறம் வந்து அப்புடியே:appe vanthu pannathu athukku appuram vanthu appudiyae</tamil> embrace <tamil>பண்ணியாச்சு:panniyaachchu</tamil> actually to a certain extent you also I would say that it makes you more like a, confident the next time round I guess


I don't know I feel I I I feel like after I because this is literally my first one by the way like this is literally I mean err I've not been a relationship but ya this is literally my first confession to someone like I've never confessed to anyone as well so in a sense like I've always been like ya like scared in that sense but err now thinking about it


it's it's just like a new feeling like in a sense like, I don't think I wont be as scared this time ah another time but then again it's about finding the right person of course I won't ya like you know like what what we were talking about it's not like any random person or something it's just that when you find the right person I think I would be more confident and prepared and the issue is also I regret is I wanted to tell her in person like I wanted to meet up with her then tell her everything but the issue is she's really damn busy like err


because she's also part time studying supporting herself because err okay her parents are divorced right so her mum is not working because her mum got health issues and stuff so she can't really work so, so before her her she got remarried right err she was not supporting the family so


by then she was pretty much done with her diploma and she was also doing her intern with the money and I don't know all that, I think back then the mum was working a bit as well but it wasn't a lot lah they didn't have a lot of money kind of thing so err after that then when the mum remarried also the dad okay the mum remarried to a guy who is also apparently unemployed but okay I I've talked to him he actually worked in A star before he's actually a very solid guy like is a is a very nice guys is is really very nice you guys like err


ya, ah <tamil>பேசிருக்க:pesirukka</tamil> I've been to her house I have talked to I know her younger brother well I talk to her mother a stepdad <tamil>ட பேசி இருக்க:ta pesi irukka</tamil> err ya

, , , , actually it could be ya


I mean I hope not I mean they did say twenty to fifty percent of english and tamil didn't they, yes we took the fifty percent definitely, , oh well


ah, we are we we're giving them a good time decoding whatever we are saying, yes yes I'll probably I think no lah maybe they have people you know like tamil people


ya I mean for the different language they would have different people doing the decoding and stuff so it's probably not too bad, sorry


, oh ya actually ya make sense make sense make sense


, , ya, maybe this this


, maybe that's what they're working on, come up with it ya,


, ya, , ya then the lan dude


, , ya


other than that anything else has been going on, ya <tamil>ஒன்னோட:onnoda</tamil> business <tamil>பத்தி சொல்ட்டு இருந்த:paththi solttu iruntha</tamil> but complete ah <tamil>சொல்லல:sollala</tamil> what what you are business oh what what what you and your friends doing, ah

sorry, , ah,


!wow!, , !whoa!, !wow!


, ya definitely there's always the circulation ya, ,


but mostly it's reinvesting back into the business ya, (mm), (mm)


hello, okay, record <tamil>ஆயிருக்கும்:aayirukkum</tamil> but that's okay lah because like, it's part of the conversation so it's okay


so <tamil>இந்த இந்த:intha intha</tamil> semester <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> how many modules are you taking, yes


two physics, wait what do you mean two physics there is only one physics what, so what's the module name


analytical mechanics now will you learn about like err like mechanical zinc mechanics or


so, fossils


, [orh] okay okay okay, okay so <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> basically <tamil>நம்ம ஒரு மணி நேரம் பேசுனோம்:namma vanthu oru mani neram paesunom</tamil> one hours a really really long time so we have to maintain the conversation can you imagine <tamil>இன்னும்:innum</tamil> Deva date with his girlfriend


ya but I don't know I don't know whether is the same person


err but I think it's overall the same concept, ya


(uh huh), [orh], ya ya ya, so this one this week starting from monday


err when when does your exams end, oh so monday to thursday that's it, okay that's it's a bit backed after thursday got anything not during the summers selling anything no lah


[orh] okay okay


ya ya understand, I also I also didn't I also planning to do that, but I I just ended my my exams on wednesday this wednesday, so, so I I I I took four modules actually you can only take four modules lah maximum


then I I dropped one because so I'm I'm doing everything online right so it's it's not conducive so one of these modules right it's very like err you have to really learn properly so it's a the uses of soft is a software


so <tamil>அந்த:antha</tamil> software they use <tamil>பண்ணி:panni</tamil> you need to learn <tamil>அப்ப வந்து:appa vanthu</tamil> I felt <tamil>நம்ம அங்க போயி படிச்சாதான்:namma anga poyi padichaathaan</tamil> better


solid works is is like auto cap, ya it's it's just a it's just another another another ya that's it


ya, and then we also use err C plus plus python, ya also so the one the the new one I'm supposed to take is called the strength seven so <tamil>அது எப்படின்னா வந்து:athu eppadinaa vanthu</tamil> err like using CFD analysis


so basically like err when you design up when your design it for example you design a car so <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> CFD <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> competetional fluid dynamics so err how does the car able to so when the car is traveling how does the wind goes against the car so is the car very aerodynamics so <tamil>இதெல்லாம் நம்ம வந்து:ithellaam namma vanthu</tamil> gates <tamil>பண்ணனும் அப்படினா வந்து:pannanum appadinaa vanthu</tamil> we can't really bring a car and test it what so we have touse the software <tamil>அந்த:antha</tamil> model leh <tamil>வந்து நம்ம:vanthu namma</tamil> AutoCAD leh <tamil>பண்ணி அப்புறம் அத:panni appuram atha</tamil> specification <tamil>எல்லா பண்ணிட்டு:ellaa pannittu</tamil> we upload into the software then you put the input arrangement for example like err <tamil>இன்னைக்கு வந்து:innaikku vanthu</tamil> this is this is the temperature this is the wind speed err this is the weather so you put like that and then the software will help you stimulate


correct it'll help you, ya, correct so we have to like it's like a playing around lah so once once we once we have achieved our desirable result then <tamil>அதுக்கு அப்புறம் நம்ம வந்து அத எடுத்துட்டு போயி:athukku appuram namma vanthu atha eduthuttu poyi</tamil> practical ah <tamil>நம்ம அத:namma atha</tamil> install <tamil>பண்ணும்:pannum</tamil> okay <tamil>நம்ம இத பண்லாம் நம்ம:namma itha panlaam namma</tamil> car design <tamil>பண்ணமோது இந்தமாரி பண்லாம்:pannamothu inthamaari panlaam</tamil> so that's software


it's like a simulator but err online software version, yes, ya it's unit so when you use your university err so when you go to the official website <tamil>அங்க வந்து:anga vanthu</tamil> you can download the student version


you know so it's the same thing lah, eh just use school university email can already, but then after we graduate all die already lah, after that gone case


(uh huh), you're using you're using your NTU directory right


ya, I'm year three semester two


correct correct nono it's a it's a four year course but I'm only doing it for three years, because the year year one module allow exempted, ah correct


so <tamil>வந்து:vanthu</tamil> what's happening now is err I finish year one in singapore I went to australia do my I I finish year two here actually, then I went there do my year three which is this year so next year is year four lah


ya, ya


, oh serious lah ah


ya correct correct


, (mmhmm)


oh so you you you you you earn, to to study not bad ah, (mmhmm)


(uh huh), oh, so right right after you you graduate from interior you applying into PHD


with NTU lah wait [orh] you mean local university lah


you still have time think lah, you still have time to think,


correct <tamil>அதுக்கு நீ அதுக்கு நீ என்ன பண்ணலானா வந்து நீ:athukku nee athukku nee enna pannalaanaa vanthu nee</tamil> start <tamil>பண்றதுக்கு முன்னாடி:pandrathukku munnaadi</tamil> talk to your all your professors lah <tamil>இந்தமாரி நான் வந்து பண்ண போறேன்:inthamaari naan vanthu panna poraen</tamil> PHD <tamil>பண்ண போறேன்:panna poraen</tamil> ah <tamil>நீங்க என்ன:neenga enna</tamil> advice <tamil>பண்றீங்க நா பண்லாமா நா எங்க பண்லாம்:panreenga naa panlaamaa naa enga panlaam</tamil> so it's like asking them itself lah


(mmhmm) (mmhmm), ya lah also, so how it is right now is right err it's online err because of two reasons lah err if the class is more than hundred pax they have to keep it online


err <tamil>இன்னொன்னு வந்து எப்டினா:innonnu vanthu epdinaa</tamil> err there are some modules where the classes are small


so <tamil>இப்ப இந்த இந்த:ippa intha intha</tamil> semester <tamil>பண்ண மூணு:panna moonu</tamil> module leh <tamil>எப்டினா ஒரு:epdinaa oru</tamil> module completely online because the course is two hundred and fifty pax, then the other other other two also is is how to say is also around hundred plus so it happened to be all online even though the students were living in australia


so and some of them <tamil>இன்னோ இன்னொருத்தர் வந்து என்ன சொன்னாருனா:inno innoruthar vanthu enna sonnarunaa</tamil> he wants to do it are on campus but nobody wants to come down, so he he he doesn't have a choice lah is like okay lah so nobody want to come down I'll do it online, but laboratory <tamil>மட்டும்:mattum</tamil> he asked everybody to come to campus


yup so <tamil>இப்ப அப்டி இருக்கு:ippa apdi irukku</tamil> next year I need to do FYP, so doing f so FYP there's two parts lah part A is semester one part B is semester two so part A is research so you research about the project


then part B is execution of the project, so even though you can research back here at home, it doesn't feel really conducive to to do your FYP overseas


ya so <tamil>அது வந்து:athu vanthu</tamil> I planning to go back but let's see how like <tamil>இப்ப கொஞ்ச கொஞ்சமா தொறக்குறாங்க இப்ப என்ன பண்றாங்கனா வந்து:ippa konja konjamaa thorakkuraanga ippa enna pandraanganaa vanthu</tamil> medicine students <tamil>எல்லா:ellaa</tamil> they have call back, so but the the whole how the whole process works right is


err the university must give you a letter, the exemption I will, ah <tamil>அவங்க:avanga</tamil> exemption <tamil>குடுத்த அப்புறம்:kudutha appuram</tamil> you you book for a book for a ticket then after that you will have to serve two weeks quarantine in a whole local hotel which which costs three thousand to four thousand dollars


ya so <tamil>அத முடிச்சிட்டு:atha mudichittu</tamil> then after that in between there they will do one or two COVID test, I think ya, I think they I think they will even though a COVID test here in singapore so <tamil>இதெல்லாம் பண்ணிட்டு:ithellaam pannittu</tamil> once everything is negative then you okay lah ask you to leave then from there we we go to our university we settle our because all of most of us vacated our rooms


so you have to go back find accommodation err and then set up everything and then you start university lah so if, ya correct, over there is because in between the flights you could have contacted COVID what


err in their own country they test negative but <tamil>மத்த ஊருக்கு போன அப்புறம்:maththa oorukku pona appuram</tamil> they test positive


so <tamil>இப்ப நா வந்து:ippa naa vanthu</tamil> my semester starts on february end I need to leave singapore by january last week of january, so that, I I want to go I mean I need to go but I'm waiting for the letter from university


err yes


yup so I never will be online but err ya it'll be a very tough situation lah then it seems ah I have to make a decision there either I because I was studying here right so I can transfer back here


but the thing is the amount of effort time and pudding the money spent to go there will all be wasted, it's like all the visa money and all will all just been wasted


it's it's a tough situation but we don't have a choice, ya, I know right


oh wait <tamil>அவங்க வந்து:avanga vanthu</tamil> she finish JC correct, err (uh huh)


like full time, full time, it's a express course, oh actually ya <tamil>ஏனா வந்து நீங்க பரதனாட்டியம் வந்து எப்டினா நீங்க இந்த அறங்கேற்றம் பண்ணீங்கனா:yaenaa vanthu neenga bharathanaatiyam vanthu epdinaa neenga intha arangetram panneenganaa</tamil> you know you get the certificate that means you order certified <tamil>பரதனாட்டியம்:barathanaatiyam</tamil> dancer so it's err it's like if I'm not wrong it's a it's a bachelors or a diploma don't know something like that


oh

so it's a it's like a friend to friend thing lah <tamil>சில விஷயங்கள் வந்து புரிஞ்சுக்கணும் இப்ப நிறையாவாட்டி இப்ப:sila vishayangal vanthu purinjukkanum ippa niraiyaavaatti ippa</tamil> serious ah <tamil>இப்ப என்கிட்ட காசில்ல அப்டினா:ippa enkitta kaasilla apdinaa</tamil> because I usually work for my own money I don't like to ask money from parents but sometime they give but even if they give I don't I don't want to


(mmhmm), ya, or it's it's it's another thing lah very simple <tamil>ippa வந்து நம்ம:இப்ப vanthu namma</tamil> group ah <tamil>வெளில போறோனா நம்ம:velila poronaa namma</tamil> clearly <tamil>நம்ம சொல்லீர்லாம் இங்க பாருங்க எனக்கு இந்த:namma solleerlaam inga paarunga enakku intha</tamil> outing <tamil>எனக்கு இவ்ளோ தான்:enakku ivlo thaan</tamil> budget


and so err if you're able to accommodate <tamil>நான் வரேன்:naan varaen</tamil> if not it's I I don't mind you guys carry on I'll meet you guys another time it's completely okay everybody will accept it


I want to find out though


(mmhmm) (mmhmm) <tamil>அவன்ட பேசுனு:avantta paesanu</tamil> lah


!hais!, he's a damn nice guy


ya so <tamil>எப்படினா வந்து:eppadinaa vanthu</tamil>


because like <tamil>அந்த:antha</tamil> group eh is quite weird you know it's like <tamil>ஒருத்தன் வந்து:oruthan vanthu</tamil> they want to spend money, err the rest are okay to compromise and then some of them are very toxic so another we have a small group <tamil>எப்டினா:epdinaa</tamil> mostly err those who are available and always come


so it's like a it's like a random mix of people lah


, ya so he they live in Serangoon gardens so is a three storey house and in between in the centre of the house is a lift, and then err, ya correct


exactly, and and and the house the suite there's a pool, so as Serangoon gardens lah it's a very it's a very very rich place, so every now as in some someone before this who was a party women she built this house so they they didn't change anything in the house they just bought the house


ya the father is err is a specialist is a doctor lah, so he asked that the father has a clinic in mount alvernia mount alvernia is a very very expensive for hospital he has a clinic inside the hospital which means is damn good which means he learns a damn lot of money


that's why obviously can afford that lah, ya, he's a very very interesting person, ya clinic clinic in mount alvernia


mount alvernia somewhere near the red line lah


so we just go there lah then <tamil>அவங்க எந்திரிக்கிறது முன்னாடி நாங்க கிளம்பிறோம்:avanga enthirikkarathu munnaadi naanga kilambirom</tamil> it's become a habit, ya so until until the parents remember my name already, ya


ya like like now I I went back after quite some time


so <tamil>மத்தவங்கெல்லாம் வந்து:maththavangellaam vanthu</tamil> friend <tamil>வீட்டுக்கு போறோனா:veetukku poronaa</tamil> I'm just going there for the house I don't care whoever is there <tamil>நம்ம:namma</tamil> usually <tamil>என்ன எப்டி இருக்கீங்க என்ன பண்றீங்க யாரா இருந்தாலும் கேப்போம்:enna epdi irukkeenga enna pandreenga yaaraa irunthaalum kaeppom</tamil> so <tamil>அந்தமாரி கேட்டு பழக்கம் ஆயிருச்சா கேட்டோன:anthamaari kaettu palakkam aayiruchaa kaettona</tamil> auntie how how are you do you remember me yes I remember you I was so surprise you remember me


and then I ask you <tamil>சொல்லிடிருந்தான்:sollitirunthaan</tamil> he is the only indian guy who comes here of course I will remember you, ya so, prob <tamil>இன்னொன்னு வந்து:innonnu vanthu</tamil> Ashwin doesn't speak tamil doesn't speak malayalam also


so it's very hard for him to click with the indian, it's a it's a whole new different thing lah, ya


my platoon lah my platoon my platoon commanders lah the rest all I don't care, not I don't care it's just that <tamil>அவங்கள பாத்தா:avangala paaththaa</tamil> may be hi, lot a lot lot damn toxic there, everyone is just everyone's just in for the money nobody I there's so many so many sergeants in my in my


in my company that's super useless they are just there because of their grades that's it, and ya there's there there's there because they got they got zero leadership qualities the if they have no right to be a sergeant but err the system in such a way that algorithm in such a way that they are the ones who are being picked


they, it still happened it's directly linked, you see the, it's okay some people just change


but there are a lot of people who are just completely useless, like they like you you you cannot be this lazy, but that's also another thing where the army doesn't motivate them lor


, but <tamil>சில பேருக்கு வந்து:sila perukku vanthu</tamil> they they need to realise it you know like you're a sergeant so you need to be an example you need to be fit


but a lot of them are super unfit


but he keep he keep on keeps on eating err like he keeps on eating a lot of junk food then he's troopers all very fit


then they then they keep laughing it's like to me like if I asked my troopers something if I cannot do then I cannot ask them what, so I need to able to do it and and err the rest are not able to show example lah so in my entire company ah


err like me and my VCR you know many you right so the both of us we are always gold, we always get gold we are like the fittest combination, the rest rest some of them are will get gold some of them will not get gold lah, but we are the fittest combination we we are we we are not lazy when we if my troopers doing something we also do


so like our the moral between our our section is quite good but the rest is not good this one I always feel fucked up lah so whenever whenever whenever somebody come talk back I don't like especially you know philip right, no you know phillp ah philip is the most stupidest fellow stupidest fellow you can ever find


there fellow ah he that that there was once <tamil>என்னாச்சுனா ஒரு பெரிய பிரச்சன:ennaachunaa oru periya pirachana</tamil> what happened was we we overslept we overslept for the PT, so all of us overslept because at night we were doing some work lah obviously and then all the troopers are down there already


then we were late lah then err we got punished lah obviously like we we we lost face you know, so and teams that day err obviously it is also one of my mistakes everybody's mistake we just overslept, so since that day I made sure is not like I'm not fit is just that I woke up late so since that day I made sure I am always that for every single PT and then this philip will be like oh I cannot come for PT I got stomach ache I got this one I got that one he keep complaining


!wah! then it was super ah we we all those who those who wake up and go early we all are super angry so what if you're a regular doesn't mean you cannot come what, you can still come for the still come for the PT right but he doesn't come then there are so many times there's there was once where


ah <tamil>நா வந்து:naa vanthu</tamil> any PT I will still go but there was once I cannot go because I got some I got some work I was doing then he keep on saying err why you never come why you never come, I say err I told him lah err PS so I say I know I cannot come because I'm doing work


err I I'm not I'm not sleeping on my bed or I'm not I'm not declaring that I'm I'm not I'm not feeling well this is what he did lah so I'm I'm implying that


err I drop my work I come for PT now because <tamil>அந்த:antha</tamil> PT <tamil>முடிச்சுட்டு அடுத்த வாரம் இங்க:mudichuttu adutha vaaram inga</tamil> I got IPPT I said I'll beat you flat, oh you you you you wanna have a competition or not, even if I'm drunk the day for PT IPPT I'm gonna beat you flat how do you want to have a challenge or not OC was there


OC was there obviously OC OC will laugh because he's not fit PS is not fit he's he's fat so he knows that lah and SM also won't say anything because SM know he useless


all these stupid regulars, at least your Google never mind most of them will, will will come for PT, even if you don't, even if you won't come for PT they are still quite fit but err arch archer not not


okay lah <tamil>அது வந்து:athu vanthu</tamil> because lot of people tend to Keng ya, after that after the incident we all became very conscious lah we we made sure we wake up everybody


we tell them even even if you're not feeling well just come down and stand for the parade so <tamil>எப்டினா:epdinaa</tamil> once everybody's there so he knows everybody's there so that's it so when during the PT you can just fall out what nobody's gonna stop you


ya


ya ya you know, I can see lah I know Igi Igi isaac isaac and a few others right


so this isaac and russell ah they go to, you would there you came for that one lah he go and steal the bottle you know, then you steal the botle from his drunk friends then his drunk friend noticed then notice like what what's the bottle here then I was like telling him it's not my problem I didn't take it go talk to your friend


then they not happy they keep staring at our table lah then I was like you know what there's gonna be a fight here so I told I told I I should just leave then we just left lah, I told them you know what I don't like what you all doing y'all just can stay here we're leaving so we left after that day we never go club with them lah


and it also happen for for signals they miss something they don't declare, you know you declare you write a statement you can actually get away with it, the whole idea is really be responsible lah so that's why they're asking you to write the a form


then they never declare then they keep stealing, and isaac keep messaging me because I also signals IC for archer what he was like [dey] I missing this you can give me or not, I was like how can I give you ah I draw from the signal store I cannot give no what you have extra what no no no I don't have extra sometimes we we keep extra lah


well I don't have but this this fellow keep asking he he keep wanting to steal, like even in in wallaby [ah] we had to we had to like we have to safeguard all our stuff


okay, ah,


okay err <tamil>இந்த:intha</tamil> semester leh ya err, let me see so one two three four, two physics one mathematics module one laboratory module plus err three past, a


so one is thermal physics ya thermal physics lah the other one is called analytical mechanics, and then


ya so it's, it's I I don't know I wouldn't I wouldn't tell that it's as maybe as detailed as the others but ours is err like the basic version it's just err how to solve very complicated system starts in err that has to do with our forces and things like that


, , a


excuse me, ya, ya that's true as well


oh okay okay okay, , , ya lah I mean


ya but basically I for my this semester I got like two physics one mathematics and err one laboratory module so total four which is a core modules and then we have three other modules which we have to take it they call it call meaning it's a call but it's like not important module so it's like a pass or fail what


so you don't really have to you get forty percent to pass and it's not it's not like a important thing you know it doesn't affect your GPA or anything, ya so so far so good lah nothing much


err on coming thursday, ya correct, you know


so <tamil>அதுக்கு போயிட்டு வருத தவிர:athukku poyittu varutha thavira</tamil> like maybe like prepare for next semester because my course it's pretty intensive and err I I need to I need to read up a lot in advance


, how how would your exams and err like how how how many exams you do you have this time ah, ,


err what what what software I already, oh okay okay oh okay okay okay okay right right right, designing


for all those three D oh so you you do like modelings and stuff like that, (uh huh), ah <tamil>தெரியும் கண்டிப்பா:theriyum kandippaa</tamil> ya we also use MatLab ya


object oriented programming lah,


oh okay, then


, oh so the software does all the calculations and everything lah but during the input part of it so you provided with information but then if you provide you the final outcome kind of thing


essentially is like a simulator, , this this this software all is like sponsored by university or a, ya


ya exactly ya ya I was just thinking that because ours also we have the same thing like a lot of things with university, ya correct, so that you can access it, ya sia then then does the irritating part but ya


I mean because now err I could use a lot of a lot of things for free and if I were to download like say textbooks and stuff right it's it's completely free like I can just download it, ya, ya correct correct ya


but now then you are like after that it's gonna be harder lah if I say if I need something but err it's okay, see how what what what's your plan started so you are in your which year now, year three semester two so you have err it's a four year course is it


so you have one more, oh so you compress it two three years you're taking like overload modules something like that, oh oh okay okay because you have your diploma lah


okay okay make sense make sense


which is your final year <tamil>அதுக்கு அப்பறம் என்ன:athukku appuram enna</tamil> plan,


I'm planning to do my PHD so I'm planning to, I'm serious because I'm trying to get into research sector so <tamil>அது வந்து:athu vanthu</tamil> err okay singapore leh <tamil>பாத்தினா:paathinaa</tamil> like basic ah I mean not in singapore like <tamil>எங்க இருந்தாலும்:enga iruthaalum</tamil> if you are studying a PHD they will also pay you so depending on whether you have err err so whether you have err what what do you call it


err whether you have a partnership with a company basically whether you sign with a company or something so


so my friend is studying PHD now he is not earning a lot but he's just studying and he's earning three K per month, you get what I mean, ya correct ya so the basic is about one point two to about one point five


then err I mean it's also dependent on your class lah like <tamil>இந்த:intha</tamil> like honours it depends on your honours then after that err ya the top up is done by the company or whatsoever depending on whether you manage to find the company which is willing to sponsor you


as in in meaning to say that you sign with them lah so you will be working with them, err ya, there's some plan, sorry


ya actually err actually that's something I'm considering like whether if I if I should I should do it right away or if I should do it like you know after some time or something like that but I think if I were to do it straight away I think
