ya <mandarin>我也是:wo ye shi</mandarin> [lah], okay, !aiya!


, !aiyo!, err today <mandarin>我什么都没有做:wo shen me dou mei you zuo</mandarin> ,


not doing anything in the end


ya I know you know yesterday I found this very nice like, a piece of clothing on Carousell then like, I was like okay okay I'm not gonna cause usually I just like it right and then err I never like


like <mandarin>马上:ma shang</mandarin> go and text them, and say I want but then, like today I was like okay I'm gonna do it cause I like it so much, then I texted her, then she was like oh okay then she <mandarin>她给我那个:ta gei wo na ge</mandarin> measurement then, after that, err, like I reply her right then she's like !oops! sorry someone else bought it already then I was like

no no it's okay it's almost gonna be over


ya she very nice though


I feel like she is very like, like appropriate like very nice like, ya ya and then she tried her best so like, like and then they always like compliment her and like


say he's he's he's the best , I think you should try find her for like, but I also don't know what to consult one lah don't know anything


must read meh, eh wait we have textbook, , let me check


, I I guess she's used to it cause like it's a intro mod mah then like, confirm got a lot of people who like, they ask a lot of questions, oh my god I now after doing after watching a few lectures of GEQ right


then I realise like, oh actually this module is quite useful cause, it teaches people how to ask questions cause so many people will ask, not, no meh like okay like, oh ya


like the first okay okay is quite, , err, like, there's sixteen lectures you know


it is a lot and like most of the things he saying the same thing you know, like he's only introducing one or two new topic so then he's trying to make it like, cause he took philo before, right, then we already know he uses, like the things that he teaching is the if X then Y then the if not X then not Y you know that kind of thing


ya, ya is logic is logic ya then, like she's trying to introduce that, in like the philo component, but then like he I think he need to make it digestible to like other faculty people also cause


like I mean like G like ger mah they made a step to mounted down so now I think the philo very mounted down, then, I mean I can I applaud him for


ya I know is so oh I times two speed you know, , , , I also cannot


, so fast at one time, and also cause like I feel econs like the concepts right need time to digest one, like one point five speed you don't understand you dont's understand, !huh!

no is very different lah, is very different ya, like objectives, I guess, ya, I mean it's like film analyses leh like


ya I feel like the more humanities arts, like, subjects right like, is is there like reading heavy, or maybe maybe maybe it's a lot lah but like, is just like rigorous, how to say


don't have lah like, like, but like philo <mandarin>那些:nei xie</mandarin> like we also like, philo was quite light right, right, cause they're reading ya some lah

I feel like <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> the gap right like, quite big leh the I don't know why also like, feel suddenly very, ya

I also have a friend who is a TA, jin wei


but everyone also say that you know, ya ya ya, everyone says that eh like everyone say after awhile they get very irritated of him, some I think was lester who was saying that like he's very


like , like, because I think maybe cause he's so passionate then he favors those people who are like passionate about it also ya, , , !huh!


!wow!, , , oh my god, !whoa!


actually there's a good that's a good plan like honestly right I feel a lot of tutors and professor in uni right like they are very, like they give you grades cause also based on how they, have like what impression they have of you, so if you are


ya, ya, or like essay, casue a lot FA stuffs are essays mah then, like <mandarin>你做到:ni zuo dao</mandarin> like essay <mandarin>是很:shi hen</mandarin> subjective <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> you know like that kind of thing, so like <mandarin>我的朋友:wo de peng you</mandarin> right she did this essay she thought like it was quite good


then she was expecting an a lah but then, she didn't get expected grade then, she ask like the professor for a, a explanation but the professor also didn't really give her a concrete explanation


so, she was quite upset lah like cause she heard, stuff about, ya like people getting better mark cause she they know the professor that kind of thing, I mean, I guess is a skill you know to stand out but


is is is corruption no lah it's not lah , ya lor, I also don't know, !hais!


I only have one or two who are taking ten fifty, I scared, (hmm), ya lor, ya confirm will have some people there who are taking next sem

okay true, like you know my GER group right like, we are all on very good terms at the all the way to the end, but we don't know ya ya we're strangers from the start, ya but we all very good terms eh like


right, oh my god thanks goodness for that groups seriously , actually you know like my friend like the TA for GET right he was, saying that people are complaining for GER, like a lot of junior are complaining about GER then


like, they had a TA meeting I think today then they were discussing about how to make GER like, better lah cause, GER, because like he said like, err GET people don't really complain that it is very dry

oh, ya lah ya lah ya lah I don't know but ya, I mean , , ya, but I really bad at it by the way that time, like cause my friends right they are addicts eh seriously they were really addicts at one point


then cause they, at that point like COVID haven't hit that hard yet, then like err they can still come over to hall lah, then like they came over then no no like everyday right like cause hall got Mahjong table, they will just come over and play Mahjong until like twelve


PM, addiction, ya ya ya, ya, !hais! there was once like like

only cause introvert like or like lazy is I think also like, I school work piling up and everything then you feel very overwhelmed ya, ya, ya sometimes when I feel very overlay over I'm like <mandarin>我会:wo hui</mandarin> like


I'll just like take like, like it, ya, is like


but sometimes that one two hours right <mandarin>我变到整个晚上:wo bian dao zheng ge wan shang</mandarin> leh then oh I now not doing anything, ya, ya same same


ya that's it already it's so bad, !hais!, , relaxation time cut into a lot of things ah like me with replying people and me doing my work and me finishing my responsibility

ya, ya and people will be anger at you if you're driving slowly, , ya, !aiya! singapore is just Kiasu for everything so they, I <mandarin>每每个东西都要:mei mei ge dong xi dou yao</mandarin> like


must be really how say, strict ah I don't know, a true true


, , you go yourself only ah, oh my gosh, I guess but but still


you must like go to the side err the road that kind of thing, you know but I feel like that road that road that you drive like to to your brother's school not really, like is not very fast also right, ya is like okay

then we put on the right side then the back one is totally like upside down , , I feel quite (ugh), !hais! also waste of two thousand okay no no it was not a waste


ya ya <mandarin>我真的会死:wo zhen de hui si</mandarin> like seriously I cannot, even across <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> err junction right <mandarin>我也不会:wo ye bu hui</mandarin> eh


I mean okay lah sometimes like it is I just feel like I'm unsure, like the right hand right turn, I feel very unsure, ya like you know the junction then like you must right turn into another lane that kind


ya, near the traffic light, then you turning to the right


like I I I rolled into like, err the wrong road , is like the opposite direction road, , ya <mandarin>我是:wo shi</mandarin> ya I am that bad


I did it twice already once like in like in in class and then another time err <mandarin>我跟我爸爸驾车的时候:wo gen wo ba ba jia che de shi hou</mandarin> !wow! lucky got no car lah then faster reverse and go the are lanes ah ,


, I mean cause at that like it so fast mah, when it happen, cause like he say okay turn then I oh okay turn then I turn into the wrong cause it's really just like separated by the barrier mah you know that kind of thing


then <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> your <mandarin>头脑:tou nao</mandarin> suddenly like, blank then like mean turns you just go into the different lane, ya then when I realise I'm like oh my god, (hmm)


near the opposite direction lah, because you know like lane got one barrier then this lane is going this way this lane is going this way, okay lah but that at at that point there weren't any cars ah Heng ah


<mandarin>你有你有去乌节路驾车:ni you ni you qu wu jie lu jia che</mandarin> meh, ya ya I don't dare also, ya even highway also <mandarin>我我会死的:wo wo hui si de</mandarin>


ya I also, ya same I know I know cause your that road right is really quite scary


, oh but really eh if like the convenience once you know how to drive <mandarin>真的很好:zhen de hen hao</mandarin> eh like


and you can fetch all your friends the latest, not a lot lah compared to Grab you know what I mean, true, ya ya ya ya it's like one or twice that kind of thing then like <mandarin>很方便:hen fang bian</mandarin> lor


, , eh <P2>vivian </P2> pass Liao mah, oh, I feel bad


she failed once or what, ,


, ya I know, actually right like they said there's a there's like statistics about guys no females being more careful drivers than guys


so maybe that's why maybe it's not biased you know maybe , ya it's just bias lor but then if you go and search the statistics like make people are trying to like, how to say like like they are trying to prove it wrong lah and then like statistics show that actually


like female drivers cause less accidents than male drivers that kind of thing, ya ya, you just could ya ya then like my my like whenever something goes wrong they're always oh <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> confirms female driver that kind of thing you know


ya, same, oh no my mum is my mum is road rage also


oh ya my mum also !aiya!, ya ya ya cause it's is so expensive to they will fit the, car you know, so I scared also


ya, !hais! if I if I could just like take like normal paint and painted it over I won't mind lah but like, I think cost like don't know how much, ,


does it work, black nail polish really, oh my god life hacks eh, good luck to the good luck to all singaporean roads


, (hmm)


!whoa! , I think ya you know my dad office right that, the parking is like, I think, is is a lot for like one month


like a few hundreds dollar for one month something like that, eh, I don't know or sixty dollar for one week or something like that, ya something like that lah, or more or more I just know is more than Grab more than you Grab everyday, which is very a lot, ya


!hais! that's why, just don't buy car, ya lah I guess, ya


don't have to worry about Grab at night, , but actually right even if like I feel like, no leh cause like you know when you go out late at night right usually like, people will drink, like sometimes when you go out late at night


ya also cannot ya, then what's the point right, uh that's true, no lah,


oh, (hmm), I mean that's what we did eh like remember


, !hais!, oh ya ya okay lah but still while speaking of <mandarin>吃饭:chi fan</mandarin> I miss like, err tea party sia , I miss the aglio olio , no meh


oh ya SMU have oh my god I remember last time like, err <mandarin>我们去:wo men qu</mandarin> Bugis study <mandarin>的时候读书:de shi hou du shu</mandarin> then <mandarin>我们去:wo men qu</mandarin> tea party <mandarin>吃:chi</mandarin> err <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> pasta, got we went once no meh, remember we were like oh there's this cheap like pasta shop let's go they got free drink also remember


you are the one who introduced me to eat you introduce us eh, ya, I don't know, eh, or maybe you just introduced us then I went to someone else, maybe


ya, , I love tea party I miss I miss, !huh!, really meh, ya the NUS one sometimes like a bit


(mmhmm) a bit


, I feel like hall food sometimes nicer than RC food eh, the one okay like I think raffles hall one is not bad, not bad but it's not extremely good but it's not bad


there's some meals that are, good stuff like good stuff, oh ya, !hais!, ya lah they give premium food mah cause they pay more


, ya, , ya , actually you know like maybe paying for utown is like


utown err so utown <mandarin>的人:de ren</mandarin> right <mandarin>他们有:ta men you</mandarin> scholarship leh like utown scholarship, like specifically for utown people only, ya UTCP scholarship, then like ya like, just cause you pay like three thousand and more every sem you have more chance in getting scholarship


ya, I mean like it might be more worth than hall in that sense, I guess, like I feel like RC also they have a lot of like networking or like, , like academic like, err, err what's that called opportunity then hall is more of like fun and like


ya more of fun and leadership that kind, (hmm), (hmm), I feel like hall people <mandarin>不是我的:bu shi wo de</mandarin> wavelength I think we should trade


I don't know eh, just some lah, (hmm) ya the more I think of it right, yes yes agreed ya


(hmm), the more I think of it right like even people say tembusu like really very good right but then, the more I think of it like the more I find flaws you know like in each RC ah, kind of


opinionated people, ya ya, ya apparently there's a is a controversy lah I don't know that's true or not


!wow! really, , oh oh ya , she's still staying on campus eh, (hmm) eventhough, ya a lot from RC people still staying but


my friend who stay capt for one sem actually I feel that's like if you were all the sem two residents like you are not very close to, like, the RC or hall, then my my sem two capt friend right she just never stay next year also, so she only left with one more sem next sem eh


ya, I don't know, ya, !hais!


!hais! I don't know lah !hais!, ya ya I know


!huh! no only got sing what, , that's true


ya I think so I think so I think have to, but I I don't think like there's a very good reputation for that also I feel, like those toilets, ya


actually no lah I feel like hall and RC right don't need to <mandarin>等:deng</mandarin> also cause like , like you, err most of the time right <mandarin>如果有一个厕所:ru guo you yi ge ce suo</mandarin> then, then <mandarin>三四个人:san si ge ren</mandarin> share <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> toilet ya


and, but then I don't know lah I still feel like the toilet not very hygienic sometimes you know there's one point right that my, ya our toilet right it just smell like pee, I don't know why like I don't know where it came from then cause okay lah I think


at that point right my friends and I we all cause we all know each other mah then we're like, oh my god who the one peeing on the floor, then we think about it then we're like is it you not you right we all like we ruled all of us out then we're like, oh, maybe it's like cause upstair right got one, err guy then he always bring his girlfriend over then the girlfriend <mandarin>还是会下到:hai shi hui xia dao</mandarin> use our toilet


then it's probably her using the like peeing on the floor or some shit, then we were freaking angry you know you know then we my friend right she brought all her dove like body soap on the floor then we scrabbed for like , we scrabbed for like one hour it was damn funny


ya but like it kept happening for like two three weeks, ya it's gross ah, no no no it's it's definitely not it's like is the is is probably the girl ya it's probably the girl


like we ya, is not us lah, !aiya! but the toilet like okay lah maybe it's just my hall cause it's very near nature like, got a lot of lizard poop and a lot of like, strange objects on the floor that I wouldn't want my bare feet to touch


!hais!, you know like sometimes right we will, then like, err one of the questions will be oh <mandarin>你有你有在:ni you ni you zai</mandarin> hall err toilet <mandarin>小便过:xiao bian guo</mandarin> mah , then then oh no I think it's red black red black


then is that there were some reds then we are like oh please please, ya cause you know some people bath and then they pee at the same time, , , but but then it will


no because like some parts right like cannot the water won't reach you know what I mean, so like the smell will still be there, ,


(ugh) (ugh) , ya but it's quite funny lah I feel like the kampung like very easy going nature it's like, is very nice lor, everyone in hall is really very easy going but sometimes the easy goingness can be, bad


you know cause like last minute work, and like they last minute expect things from you then, , I don't know ah I think is the culture lah then they expect like, at three AM


ya, and I oh I need you to finish it by seven AM oh , it's really like that ya, !hais!, !hais!


I think is like the thrill lah like that's part of the thrill you know what I mean , people in all have hall hall right all have like, a very bad sleep schedule


ya <mandarin>要要上要要:yao yao shang yao yao</mandarin> like focus on school, ya, they just know their limits then they


but then right the thing about hall is that like a night ah noisy ah depends on where you stay ah , ya, (hmm), ya, it's really quite ya it's quite busy


ya, , , some people not only block head you know they block head then CCA head then they another CCA head then they JCRC that kind of thing I don't know who this people have life I don't know


ya, but then it depends lah depends once you get like a leadership role right your work can come in anytime ah


, ya, ya


err year year two eh year three, ya year three ya then


(hmm), (hmm), (hmm) but her is really cannot sleep one eh


that's true, okay ya ya I know what you mean ya, oh <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> ya ya I know I know what you feeling man


!hais!, yes oh my god you know last night I dreamt about studying I think I forgot what was it but then I woke up at the start, I was like oh forgot what was I what was I dreaming about, urg is only week two eh


, (hmm), same


actually <mandarin>我希望他们会:wo xi wang ta men hui</mandarin> err changed <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> mid terms <mandarin>到:dao</mandarin> err into like term paper, like <mandarin>因为你可以:yin wei ni ke yi</mandarin> like err anytime do


ya, you take your time to do it and polish, you know , !hais!, I think is better leh I think it's more indicative I dunno depends ah oh ya depends depends ya


if people can find like seniors work to do to help, then like, confirm they will score much better, !hais!


okay, ah, !huh!


, , I guess, I don't know there's some people, ya


I feel like after uni right a lot of people suddenly like glow up in terms of like brain power, right, ya I go down eh maybe ,


(hmm), (hmm) different expectations lor


as in for them or for us, , ya, one one hour already, okay finish ah


[eh]


if you can turn back time what is one thing that you will do


(mmhmm), oh so you want to go back to your primary school times where you can


play more, oh play more with your friends, but I think it's good to stay at home and watch Kids Central also I thought back then it was a trend


like it was like the most, the thing is right, no meh


oh, oh yeah true okay for me if I can turn back time I think it's very cliche but I think obviously you will want to go back and


undo some moments in your life, like if you can, foresee whatever that is going to happen right if let's say I know five years ago, that that one second what what something back there will happen then I want to stop it


like I won't do it, and leave a bad memories, , for example let's say , cause I remember when I was a kid so I in a in a kindergarten right so someone actually threw a bag


then I intentionally I was standing in front of the guy who threw the bags so it hit my face then I got this very long scars, like on your face leh imagine if you are like a cute cute girl okay but you got a scar so obviously if I know this this thing will happen I will like run away right so that I wouldn't be the victim


I don't know if you have seen it before it's like a small, type of cream that is white in colour and is very cooling on your face


they can cure all kind of scars back then, ya ya ya, oh <mandarin>我现在应该没有了:wo xian zai ying gai mei you le </mandarin> oh then they also say that <mandarin>就算你没有:jiu suan ni mei you </mandarin> scar right you can still apply this <mandarin>雪花膏:xue hua gao </mandarin> on your skin on a normal basis


to so call moisturise err <mandarin>你要:ni yao </mandarin> ah <mandarin>我不知道现在哪里可以找到了:wo bu zhi dao xian zai na li ke yi zhao dao le </mandarin> you can try and Google, it's called <mandarin>雪花膏:xue hua gao </mandarin> eh but I can do a quick Google


, can, recently, oh I was watching this mainland Chinese drama where err one of the singaporean actor actually


is the main lead, he would okay he would his name is Lawrence Wong I think if you look at if you see the <mandarin>古代戏:gu dai xi </mandarin> ah, then you will know him is it <mandarin>三生三世十里桃花:san sheng san shi shi li tao hua </mandarin> something like that one then he was like the side he was err like a supporting role, then he got popular ever since that drama


is it Lawrence Wong ah, Lawrence Wang ah ya lor

oh, so you will, you will usually watch the asian drama


, Buay Tahan


err modern drama but oh modern drama, but okay lah okay modern drama less, less intense


oh really oh <mandarin>三十:san shi </mandarin> oh my gosh <mandarin>三十而已:san shi er yi </mandarin> is like so popular actually <mandarin>为什么:wei shen me </mandarin> ah I think because <mandarin>我在:wo zai </mandarin> err like they have like social media <mandarin>会看到很多那些:hui kan dao hen duo nei xie </mandarin> snippets of the quotes, they extracted from


oh worth ah


oh ya <mandarin>小三:xiao san </mandarin> is like the worst,


(uh huh)


(oo), oh yeah


I think the the drama is more of like, it's really about when <mandarin>你在:ni zai </mandarin> when you are <mandarin>三十岁:san shi sui </mandarin> what you could have done and what, what what problem you face lor


!wah! recommend ah okay lor maybe I can watch when I'm free, eh but but how many episodes are there, how many episodes are there


but forty two episode, but one episode <mandarin>是:shi </mandarin> how long, oh okay lah forty forty minutes still not so bad if it's one hour <mandarin>哇很长:wa hen chang </mandarin> leh


no no no no it's just an excuse you just want to watch it, but sometimes <mandarin>你看戏你要有:ni kan xi ni yao you </mandarin> feel <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> leh like if you don't feel like watching anything oh okay

I love home based learning eh, I like like you can be own time own target just turn on your laptop be very comfortable and then listen to the, eh you can still talk to your friends what even home based learning


oh yeah lah, but you are also more active like if home based learning <mandarin>你可以拿你的电话出来:ni ke yi na ni de dian hua chu lai </mandarin> then <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> text <mandarin>你的:ni de </mandarin> friend after that <mandarin>你可以:ni ke yi </mandarin> meet <mandarin>他:ta </mandarin> for lunch like so called virtually <mandarin>你可以:ni ke yi </mandarin> oh <mandarin>大家我们这个:da jia wo men zhe ge </mandarin> video <mandarin>完了我们可以去:wan le wo men ke yi qu </mandarin> lunch yeah discuss on Discord oh <mandarin>你们真的是:ni men zhen de shi </mandarin> Discord eh actually <mandarin>你们学校用什么:ni men xue xiao yong shen me </mandarin> application to do home based learning ah

burden together then <mandarin>很开心得在跳舞:hen kai xin de zai tiao wu </mandarin> somemore eh, eh different class ah oh <mandarin>还是:hai shi </mandarin> show different mod that's why, oh, yeah

I want the fries okay okay kidding okay <mandarin>我应该:wo ying gai </mandarin> maintain, yes I want to eat the fried chicken and fries


set, , oh what part time job are you looking for


I mean like account admin, then what admin like general admin <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> ah, oh data entry


how long is your break until next year


your break is until next year ah


then after that you just chill, , yeah


kill time


, uh


eh then now I'm quite curious leh you know the temperature taker right they have like so many across all the different places then <mandarin>他们一个他们是:ta men yi ge ta men shi </mandarin> hourly rate their hourly rate they, pay me how much, !wow! not bad leh twelve


twelve per hour,


office job, ya because I, err I would because <mandarin>你看如果:ni kan ru guo </mandarin> imagine <mandarin>你是那个:ni shi na ge </mandarin> temperature taker at the shopping mall then shopping mall is like what, eleven AM to


too boring


within one time, ya so you so <mandarin>这个:zhe ge </mandarin> temperature taker <mandarin>的人:de ren </mandarin> cannot completely


track whether people login or not lor,


oh, I think there are more schemes lor, okay oh yeah you remind me <mandarin>很像:hen xiang </mandarin> oh <mandarin>因为:yin wei </mandarin> I think there are more schemes in place by the government during the COVID period to support those that err like cannot find jobs or especially graduates and also those who left


job like who were forced to leave the job


err finding in different industry then in the end <mandarin>他最后他怎么来我的:ta zui hou ta zen me lai wo de </mandarin> company <mandarin>是:shi </mandarin> through <mandarin>这个:zhe ge </mandarin> traineeship programme that is implement by <mandarin>这个:zhe ge </mandarin> government ya so he joined through the traineeship although it's like a contract period of one year but I think you can still renew the contract after that but the good thing is <mandarin>他已经有一份工作在这里:ta yi jing you yi fen gong zuo zai zhe li </mandarin> lor at least <mandarin>这个:zhe ge </mandarin> one year <mandarin>他没有:ta mei you </mandarin> like aimlessly <mandarin>得去找:dei qu zhao </mandarin> but <mandarin>他可以继续呆在这个:ta ke yi ji xu dai zai zhe ge </mandarin> company


two point five K meh uni grad leh, oh,


oh yeah yeah, correct lor, , yeah


auditor ha, [orh], usually ya lor but because usually


usually lah what I see,


err !wah! <mandarin>这样子很残忍:zhe yang zi hen can ren </mandarin> leh is like if <mandarin>他的:ta de </mandarin> old employee <mandarin>不要离开:bu yao li kai </mandarin> then <mandarin>你就:ni jiu </mandarin> no more role for new people to come in, a bit <mandarin>残忍:can ren </mandarin> hor


, [orh]


err easier in the sense that


, !wah! <mandarin>十年:shi nian </mandarin> ah <mandarin>你的:ni de </mandarin> finance manager


eh but <mandarin>我发现通常在:wo fa xian tong chang zai </mandarin> at finance industry account <mandarin>的人都会:de ren dou hui </mandarin> stay <mandarin>很久:hen jiu </mandarin> like the average time, because once they get comfortable they will settle in ya then because very niche mah so, if your skills is there means there Liao mah then <mandarin>你不会不会想要一直在去:ni bu hui bu hui xiang yao yi zhi zai qu </mandarin> explore <mandarin>因为:yin wei </mandarin> I believe right


!wah! so is like very next level, amazing


, oh okay then like <mandarin>人家缺少:ren jia que shao </mandarin> oh, when and how would you choose between MNC and <mandarin>一个:yi ge </mandarin> startup


because like would you right would you rather be the small fish in the big pond or the big fish in a small pond I think <mandarin>每个人都会:mei ge ren dou hui </mandarin> come back to <mandarin>这个:zhe ge </mandarin> question eh,


ya oh my god <mandarin>这个是:zhe ge shi </mandarin> next level <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> trade off like,


, you mean <mandarin>你刚才:ni gang cai </mandarin> sorry <mandarin>你的:ni de </mandarin> line <mandarin>断掉:duan diao </mandarin> so <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> rather be the small fish in big pond ah


big pond small fish big, big fish small pond


actually yeah, actually <mandarin>看:kan </mandarin> okay if you are a big actually <mandarin>很多真的很多:hen duo zhen de hen duo </mandarin> consideration leh if you because most people will okay lah maybe not most people but


err like <mandarin>你跟我会想做那个:ni gen wo hui xiang zuo na ge </mandarin> big, fish in small pond but <mandarin>可能那个:ke neng na ge </mandarin> salary <mandarin>就没有这么高你的:jiu mei you zhe me gao ni de </mandarin> exposure <mandarin>也没有怎么:ye mei you zen me </mandarin> deep <mandarin>然后你就可能很:ran hou ni jiu ke neng hen </mandarin> maybe a bit more myopic on your knowledge in in the short run


ya so is a decision lor,


ya the bigger MNC, , !wow!


, true the OT is also one factor,


(uh huh), it's quite normal I mean not normal but <mandarin>会发生:hui fa sheng </mandarin> like you can stay okay it's normal in the in your industry ah to work until like twelve AM then next day eight AM report


when people leave a job right is always the bosses not, the, work load sometimes like the boss is very important so if let's say <mandarin>因为我的:yin wei wo de </mandarin> I'm lucky because my boss <mandarin>是那种:shi na zhong </mandarin> oh <mandarin>可能:ke neng </mandarin> next day time off but <mandarin>有时候他他会讲:you shi hou ta ta hui jiang </mandarin> also oh but your work starts at eight leh


then <mandarin>老板也会很难给你那个:lao ban ye hui hen nan gei ni na ge </mandarin> luxury of, coming in later the next day the next morning


ya lor, be okay about it and then


ya working is tiring, , oh , <mandarin>日本:ri ben </mandarin> (hmm)


eh but did did the, !wow! did you get a full refund of the travel package or whatever, oh <mandarin>有:you </mandarin> ah


!wow!, hundred and twenty percent voucher, is it SIA


ya you you definitely need to get that cash now what, is better to get the cash now but <mandarin>我知道:wo zhi dao </mandarin> SIA I think quite generous because <mandarin>我的:wo de </mandarin> boss <mandarin>也是有这样讲因为我的:ye shi you zhe yang jiang yin wei wo de </mandarin> colleague <mandarin>也是跟你一样她本来要去两个:ye shi gen ni yi yang ta ben lai yao qu liang ge </mandarin> trip <mandarin>的一个台湾一个:de yi ge tai wan yi ge </mandarin> somewhere but both of her trips got to cancel because of COVID


then I think she get a full refund I think in cash also but but I know SIA will offer you even better refund like <mandarin>很像你讲的:hen xiang ni jiang de </mandarin> one hundred twenty percent or even upgraded err upgraded seating for your next trip


well good thing is you can get a cashback what <mandarin>更难过的是:geng nan guo de shi </mandarin> if you cannot go then you also cannot get a refund


, ya ya ya the refund is, and I think quite fast also at least <mandarin>他们没有:ta men mei you </mandarin> like


, !wow! <mandarin>对你有讲过你要去买:dui ni you jiang guo ni yao qu mai </mandarin> luggage


but then !aiya! <mandarin>你可以收住放其他东西:ni ke yi shou zhu fang qi ta dong xi </mandarin> like <mandarin>可能你先放你的杂物:ke neng ni xian fang ni de za wu </mandarin> your extra clothes, (mmhmm)


this is the err <mandarin>可怕:ke pa </mandarin> of online shopping <mandarin>你每次看到一个东西你觉得:ni mei ci kan dao yi ge dong xi ni jue de </mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>很美你买了:hen mei ni mai le </mandarin> then <mandarin>下一个更美:xia yi ge geng mei </mandarin> leh then oh no then your cart add up to a lot


okay sure eh but to be honest <mandarin>我从来没有在淘宝买过我都是:wo cong lai mei you zai tao bao mai guo wo dou shi </mandarin> go through Ezbuy but <mandarin>我现在也不用:wo xian zai ye bu yong </mandarin> Ezbuy Liao I don't, now I go to Shopee like I love Shopee more


yeah definitely lah <mandarin>淘宝:tao bao </mandarin> no agent fee, that's all in Chinese that's the problem


okay okay I <mandarin>华人看得懂也听得懂华文:hua ren kan de dong ye ting de dong hua wen </mandarin> but we <mandarin>看那个:kan na ge </mandarin> like newspaper or <mandarin>一个:yi ge </mandarin> article that is full of Chinese language hor <mandarin>你会:ni hui </mandarin> like taken aback, okay lah I think it's also bilingual lah like <mandarin>可能你要:ke neng ni yao </mandarin> search certain


oh, okay


like when they do the unboxing !woo!, oh they are the illusion leh !wah! <mandarin>人家花比你更多:ren jia hua bi ni geng duo </mandarin> eh so never mind to spend right


bad , seven KG <mandarin>你只是:ni zhi shi </mandarin> all clothes ah <mandarin>你没有买:ni mei you mai </mandarin> like home household products


Jurong East <mandarin>谁要你:shui yao ni </mandarin> oh you mean the admin job


oh, I know I mean just take on an easier job lor <mandarin>反正是:fan zheng shi </mandarin> part time mah


at least they get feed,


I think <mandarin>你不会:ni bu hui </mandarin> lah you you you won't enjoy F&B as much


oh oh okay okay, you mean less preferred lah your choice


but I like F&B, [orh]


I like F&B, err I don't know leh like


okay but wait <mandarin>我可以想到的:wo ke yi xiang dao de </mandarin> the bad thing is you need to memorise all the menu


yeah <mandarin>很像:hen xiang </mandarin> bubble tea lor <mandarin>如果:ru guo </mandarin> because <mandarin>我的:wo de </mandarin> friend <mandarin>有在:you zai </mandarin> bubble tea shop <mandarin>做过:zuo guo </mandarin> then she has to not only memorise the menu, oh everything everything on the menu right but she also need to know how to make that drinks eh


next level difficult lor, ya <mandarin>我不知道:wo bu zhi dao </mandarin> leh !huh! but she really study leh I saw the notes and then they will run they will run through this kind of test


then <mandarin>还可以穿美美对吗至少:hai ke yi chuan mei mei dui ma zhi shao </mandarin>


<mandarin>我我的:wo wo de </mandarin> office <mandarin>有一个:you yi ge </mandarin> admin girl, but <mandarin>她没有找到工作你是:ta mei you zhao dao gong zuo ni shi </mandarin> part time eh but <mandarin>那个要:na ge yao </mandarin> full time leh


yeah, , sorry, oh for them it's easier


hope good news will come along your way


, yeah I think is good


and !aiya! COVID and everything <mandarin>而且我们还没有进到:er qie wo men hai mei you jin dao </mandarin> phase three eh we are still at phase two eh, oh, all back to normal lifestyle

ya <mandarin>因为我的薪水不用很高:yin wei wo de xin shui bu yong hen gao </mandarin> lah just, hourly rate


ya so I hopefully, yeah <mandarin>如果没有就算了:ru guo mei you jiu suan le </mandarin> but <mandarin>很容易找那些:hen rong yi zhao nei xie </mandarin> like temperature screening right


eight thirty until six eh, until two thirty


twelve, twelve to fifteen ya, but it's very tiring, it's very I mean I mean is I mean is not tiring for the job is tiring for the duration like Monday to Friday then alternatively right have to do Saturday leh then <mandarin>这样不是很像:zhe yang bu shi hen xiang </mandarin> office job Liao lor

unless err <mandarin>你的:ni de </mandarin> employer err <mandarin>会帮你:hui bang ni </mandarin> top up lah but, government <mandarin>只是:zhi shi </mandarin> government <mandarin>只是给你:zhi shi gei ni </mandarin> two point five K, so is just standard two point five K but, err after that after the one year period then <mandarin>那个:na ge </mandarin> employer will start to give them different rate of course won't be two point five K lah
