ya and the it was a very long ride and I was like okay, can I'm not terrified of like just moving my hands that's that's a step but I was still shaking over there


then I finally reached the peak and then I jumped, how many feet was it again the cliff thirty something feet or something


and I was like okay let's just jump I would like you to remember the fact that <tamil>எனக்கு அப்போகூட நீச்சல் தெரியாது:enakku appo koode neechal theriyathu</tamil>


so they said put the <tamil>நானும்:naanum</tamil> no <tamil>அதுக்குதான்:athukuthaan</tamil> ya I'm building up to that they asked to put the glasses in my like vest <tamil>இருக்கோம்லே:irukkomlae</tamil> so put it in the pouch over there and they just said run and jump and I was like I will run and jump I will follow instructions just as he said and then <tamil>எனக்கு கண்ணு தெரிலை:enakku kannu therilae</tamil> and then I went down then eventually I'm like the person that I was jumping with he was like you were also close to the rocks you could have died I was like but I did'nt


also what do you what makes you think that I could see that it's not on me , and then, I truly said okay and I just jumped and this happened like three times okay three cliffs


gradually higher and higher, ya and eventually by the time we errto the third one I was really enjoying the I mean the smaller cliffs also that one was I was finding like was my practicing moment you know but the higher and higher the highest one was really I didn't realise that I even though I was terrified of heights <tamil>அப்படியே அது குதிக்கும்போது அந்த:appadiye athu kuthikumbothu antha</tamil> sensation it's just something else as the water hits you !wow!


so eventually I just hooked on to the rocks beside me and just go and like it's not good either because they're sharp and like uh slippery and I was like okay, really I truly signed up to die in this trip and I'm really satisfied with it okay let's go


and our guide actually was like you know what I'll just swim and rescue you and I was like thank you thank you very much, he was like hold on to my feet me okay let's go I'm going on a ride


yes, and like if you had to pick up like it's like with a skirt on and all with the sandals I said our take on the path of this rocky mountain do okay I went and I have leh I can't really breathe in normal condition itself


(uh huh),


(uh huh)


your mum had a point


that will be fun, the sharks will take care of you it's fine , , but I truly wanted to swim with sharks on the trip


, but the travel buddy was like my mum said can what, I was like why why why would you do, then let me go on my own no cannot


yes, and so what did you do instead let's jump from a cliff


and the best part is that the whole trekking right my shoe was in disintegrating to a point where it it was gone, so eventually I sprained my leg too, and after right after that I had to climb up to a <tamil>என்ன:enna</tamil> mountain top eh not mountain top it was a cliff of sorts to and like you had to trek up and I was like with a skirt on and all


with this sandals, I said I will take on the path of this rocky mountain okay, I went and I have like I can't really breathe in normal condition itself, and I was wheezing because of the atmosphere and I was like roll me down <tamil>பரவாலே:paravaalae</tamil> it will hurt less everytime we stopped I was like we are done no oh good


thanks, and then I come down and I was like somehow this is worse I feel like I'm gonna roll and just I said roll me down I take it back, and I was truly you know dreaming of err swimming with the sharks


would have been nicer, and right after that I was supposed to go to like a party or something with the twisted ankle mind you, and I did


I forgot about that part, it was out to wreck me, truly, and then my friend and I my other friend and I we tried to plan for a trip and finally it was my chance to swim with the sharks


err what said friend no you shouldn't why I'm scared for you it's either this or swimming with the dolphins you do with dolphins it's fine dolphins are literally statistically higher to err they are reported to like molest you


it's fine you can slip away, , dolphins are, he said dolphins are slippery you can slip away it's fine sharks will bite you


sharks are gentle creatures


and I I grew up thinking that <tamil>பாம்புஸ்:paambus</tamil> are bad people just they are the villain of every story, I went on to hold their <tamil>பாம்பு:paambu</tamil> and I was like they are the cuddliest thing ever and I fell in love ever since, I could do that with shark too


whichever zoo I went to err they put a <tamil>பாம்பு:paambu</tamil> on my shoulder and I was like okay I really like this, I asked, ya it was really heavy you know it was like a python


I'm not sure I was very young but no one time was the yellow python the other time was this, anaconda it was an anaconda it was more than one more than one country


one was in Phuket one was in singapore ya, I was I even went to like pat a tiger, on the same Phuket, the thing was that I went there with my nephew and niece my nephew was fine with it my niece hates cats of any kind


so I was pacifying her but in retrospect <tamil>அந்த அந்த என்ன:antha antha enna</tamil> tiger place is not really something that I agree with


but the <tamil>பாம்பு:paambu</tamil> the <tamil>பாம்பு:paambu</tamil> was err, like you know those like err <tamil>என்ன:enna</tamil> those conservations centres ya, so it was really nice the <tamil>பாம்பு:paambu</tamil> was so assuring on my


sigh


(uh huh), (uh huh)


(uh huh), ,


oh oh, where lah , as a little child eh


very very questionable, song selections, tamil songs are something else in that way


eh , (ppc), !hais!, I don't think I've ever been to


like gone to like those CC ones where its like a fundraiser


and I was like !wow! nothing it was nothing, it was just going up and down <tamil>அவ்வளவுதான்:avvalavuthaan</tamil> !wow! <tamil>இல்லே:illeh</tamil>


<tamil>அதுக்கு அப்புறம் அந் அந் அந்த:athuku appurom an an antha</tamil> rides <tamil>னாலே: naale</tamil> and I <tamil>சின்ன வயசுலே இருந்தே:chinna vayasulae irunthae</tamil> fear <tamil>இருக்குறனாலே:irukuranaalae</tamil> the first time I went to roller coaster with my cousins they she was like oh my god it's just gonna be so scary all of that


then I went to USS


me who had the same fear as her ended up going on there's two rides in USS right


<tamil>அதுலே ஒரு வாட்டி என்னோடே கண்ணாடியை:athulae oru vaati ennodae kannadiyai</tamil> normally they would ask you to keep loose items, but they they did not bother with all of that with me


so <tamil>அப்படியே பள்டி அடிக்கும்போது என் கண்ணாடியும் அப்படியே பறந்துச்சு அப்படியே பிடிச்சிட்டேன்:appadiye balti adikkumpothu en kannadiyum appadiye paranthuchu appadiye pidichitten</tamil> in middle air I've never felt more, you know just, it felt like a it felt like a slow motion err you know just <tamil>ஒரு:oru</tamil> grasp


and <tamil>அதுலே வேற:athule vera</tamil> when we went there we befriended this tourist who was there on her own


at that point of time we weren't we weren't rising the roller coaster for the fun of it, it was for analysis purposes, navigational purposes, yes, ya


oh <tamil>இதைதான் நான்:ithei thaan naan</tamil> dummy piece <tamil>நு சொன்னேன்:nu sonnen</tamil> okay , it's


a'ah, ya I know, it's called gravity [dah]


(mmhmm), (uh huh), ya


<tamil>அப்ப பட்ட:appa patta</tamil> trauma


oh god no because, nope , , ya


(uh huh)


(ppc), oh


(hmm) meanwhile I think the same age same right, I gave up I was like I feel alive


if I'm standing up tears will come involuntarily, it's actually a thing


if I'm on my feet, I will I will I my you know just like the tears is involuntary, I think I literally cried when they said continue


(ppb) I got made fun of so hard like, like there was a adventure course it was actually my sweat that fell down but they thought it was me crying and I was made fun of so the next day the one of the like I was young right one of the boys


what new iphone are you talking about the iphone twelve, I think


I think four ah I think like got four like you know the iphone mini and then there is the iphone twelve the normal one that's the twelve pro and then the twelve pro max


like you know compared to the X S the eleven pro max right the twelve pro max <mandarin>更大个:geng da ge</mandarin> like <mandarin>它的形状:ta de xing zhuang</mandarin> is about the same but <mandarin>它的旁边是:ta de pang bian shi</mandarin> err, like squared off <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> so it's, more like harder to hold in the hand because very sharp but the thing is like closer to the border so the screen is slightly bigger so I think looks very cool have you seen the new have you seen the design I think it's everywhere now like everyone posting on Instagram and everything


oh is it that


!wah! why you (one) off Instagram why suddenly feel that, giving you too much stress ah


, oh but talking about that right before that err just ask you ah <mandarin>你用完:ni yong wan</mandarin> Netflix right, I realized that we've been using Netflix since like september twenty eighteen like it's been so long since I've been paying for Netflix can you imagine how much I'm paying for Netflix every month


yes you're leeching off do you know how much I'm paying every month let me check you know like <mandarin>你懂:ni dong</mandarin> like my wallet <mandarin>现在在:xian zai zai</mandarin> bleeding you know like, every month paying how much eh no no no I don't want to update the payment method you know I want to just check how much I paying them every month oh my god it's like thirty bucks a month leh linus <mandarin>很多钱:hen duo qian</mandarin> leh my pocket very


unfair eh linus unfair eh, but I know lah but what do you think of like Netflix like nowadays like nobody watch like normal TV like


I think you also have like the Singtel TV right do you watch Singtel TV


#ching long# like the #ching chong ling long# channel is it,


wait wait wait did you did you just say <mandarin>毛泽东:mao ze dong</mandarin>


but <mandarin>毛泽东:mao ze dong</mandarin> like, wait isn't wasn't he like some big ass emperor like very long ago


my history


how does a country run away though, but I thought last time like if you try to steal a treasure then they will chop off a head or something


[orh] so basically one suck lah then other one managed to like get the stuff lah, is that what you're trying to say


(uh huh), like


what do you mean by so nice like err was he a good emperor or was he like one of those shitty ones that cause his like you know <P1>#kim jong un#</P1> like that kind of like emperor, or was he a better emperor


chinese communist party


chinese propaganda how do you think china china keep their err country happy sia obviously is they tell them their country fake news ah but I think we shouldn't talk this much about this kind of like err err politics lah because you know like sometimes I when other people hear especially if they hear you ah then they


not happy you know cause you talk about their country and everything


ya I live in malaysia for so long, I came to singapore in like primary one like just before primary one so I came into like err start set a primary school education but because you know like malaysia like don't teach english much ah so my english was quite Jialat like


I cannot like I speak to my classmate right I say like err <mandarin>你好我我名字是:ni hao wo wo ming zi shi</mandarin> #yi chen# then they they will be like !huh! what you saying because in singapore like everybody's too used to speaking english so they don't really, err know like chinese that well so it was a small problem


see my point


because I think the issue is that err, very little people speak chinese at home so people are too used to just, you know , they prefer to speak whatever they speak at home and whatever like it's the same thing that if they speak english at home then <mandarin>他们在学校也会讲英文:ta men zai xue xiao ye hui jiang ying wen</mandarin> then if they prefer to speak chinese at home then <mandarin>在学校就是华文:zai xue xiao jiu shi hua wen</mandarin> lor it's the same thing what like they cannot be oh I suddenly speak chinese at home like because <mandarin>当你讲话的时候:dang ni jiang hua de shi hou</mandarin> like you are used to


saying the same language throughout like you don't you don't just your brain doesn't just go switch like when you decide to change like but just with different places you go you get what I mean


, interesting


but I think a issue is that err you need to know how to, speak more languages like you know like singapore like if you know how to speak one language then <mandarin>你去菜饭:ni qu cai fan</mandarin> then <mandarin>你去跟那个:ni qu gen na ge</mandarin> aunty <mandarin>讲:jiang</mandarin> aunty <mandarin>一包菜饭:yi bao cai fan</mandarin> like you just say err aunty can I have a packet of chicken rice like packet of rice like take away then she won't really understand you like you know she will be like !huh! but if you say aunty <mandarin>一包带走:yi bao dai zou</mandarin> then she like you know understand so I think it's important that people still learn both languages or like you see most of our of friends mostly they don't really know chinese very well like you know everyone call our school <mandarin>香蕉人:xiang jiao ren</mandarin> because like most of our classmates cannot even pass basic chinese


I mean the thing is, even if they <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> like <mandarin>在学校讲华语:zai xue xiao jiang hua yu</mandarin> is it just me ah but when when we moved to poly right like more more people start you know in school <mandarin>他们讲华语:ta men jiang hua yu</mandarin> they don't really speak in like they everything Cheena #ding dong ling long# they don't really say like you know like english very much unless is like like talking to teachers and everything


ya but you know we need to, I just not sure but most people, (hmm) interesting, true I agree that different school <mandarin>有不一样的:you bu yi yang de</mandarin> standard


but you know when you mention like <mandarin>不一样:bu yi yang</mandarin> standard different school right you're going like then you're going to make some people very unhappy because they may say you elitist


what really do you really think it's going to get better like the gap between like some of my classmates are so big right that like you know like <mandarin>在课室里面:zai ke shi li mian</mandarin> then like <mandarin>一:yi</mandarin> like this <mandarin>一群人就坐在一边然后另外一边就是:yi qun ren jiu zuo zai yi bian ran hou ling wai yi bian jiu shi</mandarin> like another clique <mandarin>他们不会在一起:ta men bu hui zai yi qi</mandarin> like


like <mandarin>他们很像是敌人这样子:ta men hen xiang shi di ren zhe yang zi</mandarin> then even during project work <mandarin>他们都不会:ta men dou bu hui</mandarin> discuss and everything so it makes it very awkward lah so I think there is this thing that needs to be fixed


but talking about that right what what are you studying in your school now I know like ever since you went poly right I don't know what you do already like like now everybody doing their special thing are you doing something like business or something


because <mandarin>你看起来很像那种:ni kan qi lai hen xiang na zhong</mandarin> business student like you know like the uptight one, ya, like <mandarin>你很像:ni hen xiang</mandarin> like prim and proper you know like everything must be done right then like you present yourself very well then articulate and everything you literally fit into like you know the if you take a shell right <mandarin>然后你把自己放进去:ran hou ni ba zi ji fang jin qu</mandarin> right then is just nice is like business student


!wah! talking about gangsters ah my class got a lot leh like there is two distinct one there's nothing <mandarin>没有没有在中间的就是:mei you mei you zai zhong jian de jiu shi</mandarin> either <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> err gangster <mandarin>不然就是:bu ran jiu shi</mandarin> err nerd there's nothing in between it's either you're a nerd or you're a gangster


I think I'm a nerd lah you know me lah I'm I'm not the kind that get into fight one you know like I'm the one that's in the corner and be silent one, like people say !huh! I like sorry sorry sorry that kind


but I think you're a nerd


(hmm) that's very interesting, I think like is different between courses lah because I think your course is very unique that kind lor everybody is a decent human being like <mandarin>不像我的:bu xiang wo de</mandarin> course


no they are not, , there are like that this kind of people


eh that's, that's true leh like even for my course right if you <mandarin>如果你只是:ru guo ni zhi shi</mandarin> like <mandarin>就是拿一个普通的:jiu shi na yi ge pu tong de</mandarin> err <mandarin>快过时间的话你就是:kuai guo shi jian de hua ni jiu shi</mandarin> like pass <mandarin>不了的:bu liao de</mandarin> leh I realize that <mandarin>你一定要:ni yi ding yao</mandarin> interested in the topic itself <mandarin>不然的话是不可能的:bu ran de hua shi bu ke neng de</mandarin> lah like but it's normal lah like I don't know why people go to poly right and then study something they don't like


then why not just like don't like quit the course lah like study something you like you know this is eventually going to you what you gonna be doing the future of then what's the point of, trying to like something when you don't even like it in the first place


, damn that's pretty bad for my course is only a few leh wasn't that bad


oh my but, your school right like your classmate <mandarin>有没有:you mei you</mandarin> like <mandarin>喜欢玩:xi huan wan</mandarin> game <mandarin>的那一种的:de na yi zhong de</mandarin> like for my course right like <mandarin>不是:bu shi</mandarin> study <mandarin>就是打:jiu shi da</mandarin> game <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> like <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> class <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> , can sit together and just play game one


(mmhmm) interesting but like I don't know do you play any games I think games help to like help you like help you like you know when you especially when you're stress you can like destress, if you get what you mean


but what do you think I I also play Valorant like <mandarin>我觉得他们:wo jue de ta men</mandarin> like I think Valorant like <mandarin>是新的游戏:shi xin de you xi</mandarin> right if I'm not wrong


!ee! okay lor I agree lah like you cannot like <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin> like when you play this kind of game right if you play with other like if you play yourself right <mandarin>不好玩的:bu hao wan de</mandarin> like you are just like shooting random stuff when you play with your friends you know you can like blame them like <mandarin>或者:huo zhe</mandarin> like can shoot them or something I mean it's funny lah don't you think


!wah! you pro already lor <mandarin>玩这样多:wan zhe yang duo</mandarin> eh I think we should play together so next time right I also play Valorant I think we can play together


well my timetable my school give me one right like err, I only got three days of school right <mandarin>星期一星期二跟星期四:xing qi yi xing qi er gen xing qi si</mandarin> I got school but <mandarin>星期三跟星期五:xing qi san gen xing qi wu</mandarin> I got nothing one like just do nothing lor #zuo bo# lor


(uh huh)


so, but you didn't raise this with a teacher


I see but thing is about it is that eventually is going to be like I hope err, we get to err, err how do I put it like we get to eventually just go back to school and like normal you know


but isn't that the fun part about school you get to interact with your friend


oh ya I see you before like your eye bag like some you know the panda like that like like <mandarin>黑眼圈很:hei yan quan hen</mandarin> like very Jialat one is it really that bad


no I think, err poly still can lah like you can easily fit in like a bit of part time work you know to earn pocket money like <mandarin>我自己也是有点做点:wo zi ji ye shi you dian zuo dian</mandarin> part time work you know like to earn a bit of pocket money so that you don't have to <mandarin>靠:kao</mandarin> parents <mandarin>这样多:zhe yang duo</mandarin> you know


true but you know like most of time <mandarin>可以的:ke yi de</mandarin> lah like poly so slack


is it really that bad


true


ya lor like <mandarin>你在:ni zai</mandarin> like O level like anything goes like that <mandarin>什么都不用管:shen me dou bu yong guan</mandarin> still can pass like easy for you sia like for me I still have to study so much


you know I, I you know what is it I forgot what it's called lah you know like you know I'm the I don't complain about studying one I don't show off about studying not like our friend that one like everytime put out every all his notes the use Instagram take picture say studying already then keep already you know like fake only


I don't know lah I forgot his name already lah but you know you also don't you also didn't like him much what remember


true but eventually you need to learn how to manage lah if you don't manage your time then


got so sad meh


I think it's a good idea to do what you're interested in uh because <mandarin>如果:ru guo</mandarin> you're not interested in what you are doing right eventually you're going to


ya it's very Jialat one


!aiya! your course like the the O level cut off point very low what my course cut off point like twenty six sia, in in a way it's like err


I think twelve ah twelve is very okay lah for <mandarin>你你都说了:ni ni dou shuo le</mandarin> like for our school twelve is err very like normal like that lah but


!aiya! for you everything easy lah, like what's difficult for you sia


, I know lah but most people think ya like you know err you you we ah we get it easy lah but, eh but what do you think of err the new the US politics now like especially with trump doing his like you know <mandarin>我是老板:wo shi lao ban</mandarin> thing and then ah he he remembered I think I saw something about him saying even if he didn't get elected again he's going to <mandarin>我是老板:wo shi lao ban</mandarin> and then just don't care and continue being president not leaving the white house


true true like


I think you know like there's always the prestige of going to the US I guess, like you know eh it's like if you say like you compare lah like <mandarin>如果我问你:ru guo wo wen ni</mandarin> like <mandarin>我跟你说我去:wo gen ni shuo wo qu</mandarin> NUS <mandarin>读书的话:du shu de hua</mandarin> compared to <mandarin>我跟你说:wo gen ni shuo</mandarin> for example err <mandarin>我在:wo zai</mandarin> err <mandarin>我在:wo zai</mandarin> err <mandarin>我有:wo you</mandarin> harvard <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> degree lah you know is different like something you know


that one still very long in the future lah you really think I can think about that kind of thing like so so far back it's like I think for now we just going to like going through the at like <mandarin>就是读书而已你以为这样快就像:jiu shi du shu er yi ni yi wei zhe yang kuai jiu xiang</mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>以后怎样:yi hou zen yang</mandarin> but I mean singapore is a very nice city to like live in lah like <mandarin>我没有觉得很像:wo mei you jue de hen xiang</mandarin> like I need to leave the leave the country immediately you know


like


I mean, I think I want to go japan to study because like you know japan IT like the school there is not bad


eh that's not true okay <mandarin>我也有读书的:wo ye you du shu de</mandarin> okay


japan of course I tell you already confirm japan, like the food there is so good, my ideal holiday ah !wah! it's really just go and <mandarin>就是就是飞过去过后就是:jiu shi jiu shi fei guo qu guo hou jiu shi</mandarin> fly in business class confirm <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> business class <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> lah <mandarin>因为:yin wei</mandarin> you know enjoy yourself since it's like you know once in like <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> like very long thing so like you just enjoy yourself and afterwards err


you can err err <mandarin>去那里:qu na li</mandarin> like I don't get people who go to other country wake up at like seven AM just to explore some part like ya like you know maybe for the first day or maybe for like somewhere in the middle <mandarin>早起来看那个:zao qi lai kan na ge</mandarin> sunrise or something but I won't do it everyday like I'll wake up at like nine or ten you know holiday mood and afterwards <mandarin>去找好吃的东西然后:qu zhao hao chi de dong xi ran hou</mandarin> in the afternoon maybe go visit some like their attraction or go shopping then after that


eat again my favourite part of the day <mandarin>就是吃:jiu shi chi</mandarin> lah like you know especially japan you know how many like, like stuff I want to eat from japan I've been there so many times I I I thought we could go this year but COVID <mandarin>变成:bian cheng</mandarin> like err <mandarin>我们现在不能出国:wo men xian zai bu neng chu guo</mandarin> but if I can go back there I have so much stuff I wanna eat there


I think it's because <mandarin>你成熟了:ni cheng shu le</mandarin> lah like <mandarin>以前:yi qian</mandarin> like, we just want to like, you know enjoy ourselves now sometimes I think a walk in the park is not to enjoy it's like more to, like


in singapore at least like <mandarin>哪里:na li</mandarin> like <mandarin>你要去哪里:ni yao qu na li</mandarin> appreciate the scenery


#bukit timah# hill that ah but I think, wait is #bukit timah# hill even a hill, wait so you climb up the hill like you <mandarin>爬上去:pa shang qu</mandarin> or like you like took a bus up


really I mean I wouldn't know lah I'm not that kind of people to really just err, do, err how do I put this like I'm not the kind to go our nature to walk around


isn't that the whole point of travelling sometimes


, have a bit of everything ah I guess in a way but


eh eh don't because if you make a list of how you must do right then it makes you feel like you even more stress so if you don't like reach there on time then you stress also what so I think the best way to go for holiday <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> like stress free <mandarin>那种就是:na zhong jiu shi</mandarin> take it free and easy and then plan as you go like okay <mandarin>今天:jin tian</mandarin> I feel like going to err for example japan lah like <mandarin>我今天想去看那个:wo jin tian xiang qu kan na ge</mandarin> shrine okay lor <mandarin>我就去那里:wo jiu qu na li</mandarin> then <mandarin>明天就去这里:ming tian jiu qu zhe li</mandarin> like don't plan in advance to make especially I see some people right who plan the schedule so full right like they give themselves like maybe three hour at some place I would plan myself to like let myself to appreciate like one place for like I I just assign one place for that one day unless I feel I'm not gonna enjoy that place I'm gonna give myself half a day but if I like it then I will just stay there the whole day lah then don't need to follow the schedule a lot what do you think like do you think if you err <mandarin>很像如果你喜欢这个地方:hen xiang ru guo ni xi huan zhe ge di fang</mandarin> right would you err <mandarin>直接:zhi jie</mandarin> err <mandarin>可以呆在整天或者:ke yi dai zai zheng tian huo zhe</mandarin> you must follow your schedule and err leave that place after like maybe three PM to go somewhere else to watch sunset something like that I don't know some people plan it like this way


I remember you went to visit your brother right, oh that's interesting


but <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> err <mandarin>那一个学校读书:na yi ge xue xiao du shu</mandarin> ah, Waseda sounds like some sort of curse word like that , Waseda


!wow! that's


very, err Chim


oh that's but but chemistry like there's a lot of thing to do what like don't have to really stress about it like I mean for you <mandarin>你只有一个:ni zhi you yi ge</mandarin> path what <mandarin>就去建屋子:jiu qu jian wu zi</mandarin> lor like you know build the HDB help the government or something you know


oh ya ya when's your internship starting ah for us it's going to be like I still have like one year you know like because it's gonna be like year three sem two for us because sem one is going to be major project


!wow!, do you guys have major projects also


!wow!, that's, in very that mean <mandarin>你很很快就要做你的那个:ni hen hen kuai jiu yao zuo ni de na ge</mandarin> err, application for like <mandarin>你要去读书那些:ni yao qu du shu nei xie</mandarin> like apply to


the firm so you need to start preparing your resume and everything


but most like <mandarin>你你会要去哪里:ni ni hui yao qu na li</mandarin> like where's your heart telling you that you want to go


interesting but, how like when you say architecture right cause I think right when <mandarin>你说你做:ni shuo ni zuo</mandarin> architecture <mandarin>一定是很像建:yi ding shi hen xiang jian</mandarin> I mean it gotta do with something like <mandarin>建屋子的:jian wu zi de</mandarin> what but if let's say you only err


you need to have a strong portfolio, you probably gonna need a very strong portfolio to apply for those because you can imagine like those kind of err companies they they handle huge like huge going to receive applications from pretty much everyone in your course right so you really must try to stand out lor


did you ask your friend what they want to do, so you are the you know the extra kid that, done like already know what he wants


but <mandarin>其实:qi shi</mandarin> I think it's good that you actually err actively try to


figure out what you want compared to some other people who don't really know what they want and what they're doing, you know


ya but


for me I did I I don't think so eh for me I think I just like, you know like I don't think it's changed lah it's more of like you know, like as as you go like doing more stuff right like <mandarin>你会:ni hui</mandarin> because of your environment like mature a bit lah you cannot just keep doing the same thing over and over again like imagine like if I do what I did in like primary school now like people will say you are very childish and don't want talk to you at all you get what I mean


ya lor like


, I mean it's true right like like last time we used to do some stupid stuff now we don't really do these kind of stuff already


have to grow up lah, but eventually, of course ah like I like I realized even though I moved on to poly like almost two years already but when I look back at who my friends really are is still from secondary school I guess like the four years of err suffering together preparing for O levels


like you eventually you can feel it one <mandarin>你不可能是很像:ni bu ke neng shi hen xiang</mandarin> oh err <mandarin>我只是:wo zhi shi</mandarin> err <mandarin>要:yao</mandarin> err <mandarin>只是读书而已:zhi shi du shu er yi</mandarin> like you know ;ike we do so many stupid stuff over like remember us throwing the pen into the ceiling


ya but, like look into the future I guess but, what do you think like, like our friends are going to do like, can you imagine like nicholas like nicholas he like don't know what he want to do like still he's like he's almost finishing JC already then he still like bouncing around


like, because most of them I think they don't really think about it because like you know they they recently got the letter to join the army soon


I mean eventually they have to care about it right imagine they go to, because if I'm not wrong right I remember you have to apply for err uni when you're in NS right if you don't then you're going to like <mandarin>比:bi</mandarin> everyone <mandarin>慢一年:man yi nian</mandarin> or something


ya but, I think I'm going to apply to NUS to do err info sec because like err that's what my interest is lah like I after two err doing it so long in school


(mmhmm)


that sounds something I might want to do I I think I'm gonna go look it up after this ah I I think it's something I want to do but I'm not so sure ya because, as you say like oh like I'm also not that kind to like plan <mandarin>十年:shi nian</mandarin> in advance one I take one day at a time you know


ya imagine being stuck with the same company for like ten years straight like you like if you don't want to then they also won't allow you to just like suddenly I want to switch right it's going to be like oh too bad you are stuck with us for ten years


(mmhmm), but I think for this right I <mandarin>还有很久的事:hai you hen jiu de shi</mandarin> right I don't really want to think about it lah for now just focus on passing my school exams and you know relaxing chilling


but <mandarin>下下个礼拜开学了:xia xia ge li bai kai xue le</mandarin> like do you what's your feel like <mandarin>你想回去吗还是:ni xiang hui qu ma hai shi</mandarin> like you want holiday to be longer


ah no more one more week ah <mandarin>下个星多两三天就开学了:xia ge xing duo liang san tian jiu kai xue le</mandarin> but <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> lah <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> like no problem one,


ya but I see how [lah] like <mandarin>我我也不知道:wo wo ye bu zhi dao</mandarin> for now I just (err)


eh you know the new iphone right just got released a few days back, ya ya the the the new iphone


like I think they released like three phones right


!wah! <mandarin>这样大了做么:zhe yang da le zuo me</mandarin> leh like, err I actually never really see eh like I watched the the err compressed event like the one minute thing I didn't watch the full event, ya but


yeah I I I saw like on youtube cause like the whole event like <mandarin>一个多钟头太久了:yi ge duo zhong tou tai jiu le</mandarin> lah don't want to watch then okay but I mean


like talking about iphone so, actually I've been off instagram for like


almost a month I think ya maybe more than that !wah! actually very long already, ya no lah I I just like don't really like how I am when I use the app like <mandarin>变成:bian cheng</mandarin> very like, I don't know judgy then like see a lot of things and like <mandarin>不爽:bu shuang</mandarin> like just like doesn't feel good lah so I I don't know I just like decided to like use less and like not use it


err are you talking about me leeching of your Netflix


, whoops


no leh like my Singtel TV is only for my <mandarin>爷爷:ye ye</mandarin> to like watch the <mandarin>中国:zhong guo</mandarin> show one, like, really like, we we pay I think the Singtel TV is like, twelve dollars or something and then we pay like extra twenty plus just so he can watch that one channel every single day


ya ya the #jing xuan# pack ya but but the thing is right you know <mandarin>那天我看那个中国的戏:na tian wo kan na ge zhong guo de xi</mandarin> right, like actually find it quite funny cause okay


you know like got like <mandarin>毛泽东:mao ze dong</mandarin> and then like you know last time they fight with like taiwan then taiwan the the general run away that's why now got china and taiwan right


then after that taiwan <mandarin>的跑掉:de pao diao</mandarin> that's why now got two separate countries [orh]


no <mandarin>毛泽东:mao ze dong</mandarin> was like, like I think so okay okay come come come I give you a simple breakdown lah okay so last time


got like chinese got like emperor right then after that I think they fell to like manchuria or something then after manchuria then I think, like I can't remember I then I think there's where <mandarin>毛泽东:mao ze dong</mandarin> came in so they they were like communist so after like manchuria they had like communist and they also had like the democratic


so what happened was like, they were fighting within the country and then <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> democratic <mandarin>的是:de shi</mandarin> taiwan lah then taiwan at some point basically they just decided to run away and then form taiwan


oh no no they they stole all the treasures and run away something like that, no but they were like two equal powers at war


something like that okay okay no no the funny thing was like I read in a book last time <mandarin>毛泽东:mao ze dong</mandarin> was known for being ruthless, but then right <mandarin>那天我看那个戏:na tian wo kan na ge xi</mandarin> ah no as in <mandarin>这几天我一直看那个戏:zhe ji tian wo yi zhi kan na ge xi</mandarin> like is it portrays like the war lah basically like legit just the fighting


damn funny like the <mandarin>毛泽东:mao ze dong</mandarin> in the show like so nice one leh


he's not an emperor he's like the head of, okay is is is communist ya ya ya so it is like, err essentially #kim jong un# and he is known for being ruthless like I read that you know he would like go somewhere <mandarin>不爽:bu shuang</mandarin> then he just like kill people kind of thing but then in the show like he so like nice and then so funny like legit the the chinese propaganda never knew that it was it was still so intense


ya that's true that's true eh but, wait you you are like both malaysian and singaporean right then like do you live in malaysia before


ah wait wait when did you come to singapore then


no lah I think depends where you're at also leh, like some of my friends speak a lot of chinese also


okay lah okay , I I think, depends on the class like <mandarin>我的班还可以:wo de ban hai ke yi</mandarin> lah, like not that many, I think other classes got more


I I get what you mean but I also think it depends cause like, I mostly speak english but then when I speak, to my dad I will subconsciously just change to chinese and when I speak to my grandparents I will intentionally speak chinese but to my dad is like subconscious <mandarin>所以:suo yi</mandarin> ya it's just like switch here switch there then


like !oops! , I met like this girl okay lah actually you know never mind no need to tell that part of the story so like, err


ya she just mention that that ya she speak chinese at home then to most of her friend she speaks chinese also, but then, ya but then <mandarin>她跟我讲话:ta gen wo jiang hua</mandarin> then speak english like very normal leh so I don't gets also


that's true but, ya I I mean I I think it's important lah but I don't think that is a is a trend, like I still think that it's like the people that interact with cause


english english, like if you go to other schools <mandarin>他们会讲华语的:ta men hui jiang hua yu de</mandarin> and usually their english quite bad I mean


yes I think so and sorry to say like it's back to the same thing like, like if you get what I mean I will not like as in is the singapore education system like <mandarin>是这样的:shi zhe yang de</mandarin> lah


I mean that that's exactly what it is what because, that's that's how, I'm not gonna say like <mandarin>政府:zheng fu</mandarin> plan like that one lah but then like, I I guess


!aiya! okay okay K K don't talk about this lah I mean is plan like that lah I mean, is is it's just a fact like that's how it is now, I mean I think they're trying to mix things up a bit so hopefully we'll get better lor


I guess it's getting slightly better in many ways, like <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> course <mandarin>不是这样:bu shi zhe yang</mandarin> lah like, generally my friends are quite okay


like I have some friends will, will like say some things then I'll be like but, no not that I don't get what they mean but like I cannot relate


or like I say certain things then my friends will be like oh you know, because of your background that's why you don't understand


no you why would you think I'm business, like <mandarin>我没有跟你讲过:wo mei you gen ni jiang guo</mandarin> meh like I'm I'm doing architecture dude


like, no


no lah I I legit think like you got it all wrong man okay but also I think like if you think business in like err, in a real world sense then, probably, but then like in poly business is where all the like


okay, I I don't know like, you you don't realize meh like business in poly got a lot of like funny people or like gangsters and all


my course generally, I only know like one or two gangsters, and most people are not nerds also, ya I think we have quite, I eh I don't I wouldn't call myself a nerd ya but I mean I think we are quite well balanced like


okay okay lah I can talk to one ya, so I think is quite good


what you mean by decent human being like I think, generally your course should be quite okay also one what right, I


ya I I think, my course like it's very unique, in the sense where like, if you want to be if you you only stay or like not stay lah but you only do well if you really know what you want to do or like if you are actually interested


then you will then you can do well it's not like something you can just study ya


they don't want to quit ya but they struggle lah <mandarin>很多人都是:hen duo ren dou shi</mandarin> struggle struggle <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> lah


ya ya I I realise that's why my course like the dropout rate <mandarin>很高的:hen gao de</mandarin> like I think, like <mandarin>去年:qu nian</mandarin> got like, I don't know I think more than ten my class got like, three drop out last year, and then got some classes got like


six or eight so I think the total drop out was like, like <mandarin>二十:er shi</mandarin> I think, ya my course generally is err


can't remember is it ten or twenty percent I think ten percent drop out rate


eh, I don't know them very well but I would say that, I mean I know people who game but I don't know like


ya usually is <mandarin>心不在:xin bu zai</mandarin> they just do other things lor <mandarin>就做工还是跟朋友出去:jiu zuo gong hai shi gen peng you chu qu</mandarin> then <mandarin>没有读书这样:mei you du shu zhe yang</mandarin> lor


oh <mandarin>我我其实以前没有打:wo wo qi shi yi qian mei you da</mandarin> game <mandarin>的我:de wo</mandarin> like, recently because of circuit breaker then I start playing again like last time, K lah I think I did like lower sec


then upper sec only like holidays then I play a bit, but then <mandarin>因为那个:yin wei na ge</mandarin> circuit breaker hor <mandarin>所以:suo yi</mandarin> like, like <mandarin>玩玩玩然后又有:wan wan wan ran hou you you</mandarin> like some friends ask me to play like


Valorant, then <mandarin>玩了玩玩玩现在还在玩:wan le wan wan wan xian zai hai zai wan</mandarin> lor


err <mandarin>不错:bu cuo</mandarin> lah like I I quite enjoy it I guess but, like I did a rule for myself that I only play when other people play like any game as in Valorant or DOTA lah cause like if not I spend really too much time on it


ya lah ya I mean, there's was a there's a while back that I played a Valorant match on my own, that one was quite, fun I mean when I first started obviously I was like super bad lah then got people scold me, but then like I think there was one or two match because like my rank very low right


so when I match with very low rank people then somehow it's my good day !wah! then I play not bad then I can like easily MVP or something no I think I never MVP but I got a lot of kills lah then quite Shiok lah ya


!ee! but like <mandarin>要开学了:yao kai xue le</mandarin> leh like next monday <mandarin>开学了:kai xue le</mandarin> like I don't think I will play so much I mean actually quite free like what's what's your timetable like


oh for me actually is like <mandarin>星期一星期五:xing qi yi xing qi wu</mandarin> no school, then like tuesday okay actually no <mandarin>星期五:xing qi wu</mandarin> got school but like I go to school for like an elective and I think my elective is online, then then like because like my course quite special lah so I only have one module this semester like for like my course only one lah so like we have to rotate to go to studio then


half an hour or is it two no I think two hours so I will only be allowed in school for two hours <mandarin>所以:suo yi</mandarin> like, like <mandarin>去到那么远:qu dao na me yuan</mandarin> then after that like !wah! very Sian lah


err, no lah I I think no choice lor cause like you know we need to go like they want us to go back, and I guess I don't mind the face to face lah ya


, I quite like going to school but I mean again it's very far and I but I realize that I waste a lot of time in school cause like


then like !wah! spend one hour okay not one hour lah but usually about forty minutes at least eating, then


!wah! then cannot do properly have like go home have to do do do then don't sleep !wah!


to be honest okay like if you really know how to manage your time it is okay but like when I say manage your time it means that like morning you wake up, you go to school and then like you just do work all the way so like the people who I know that


okay I trying not to make it sound bad lah but, like <mandarin>那几个人:na ji ge ren</mandarin> lah that can actually manage their time and when I say manage their time means sleep before twelve is they legit


like do work do work do work, then <mandarin>没有打:mei you da</mandarin> game <mandarin>没有做工的:mei you zuo gong de</mandarin> ya


I I think is logical, and err is good also but I will say that for my course, I was there are some people that do it but, err towards the busy periods most people don't lah because really quite difficult lah


for you lah !aiya!


legit like !wah! I think this year, ya really some of the days like really going to explode, ya, the stress is cannot one


ya like it's actually legit very bad like okay, I mean maybe, like some people would say I never really face like difficulties like for O level or whatever but then


!wah! <mandarin>你讲谁:ni jiang shei</mandarin> !aiyo! !wah! how come got so much tea one, !wah!


legit I mean it's tough lah like poly is legit legit tough for me but I mean it's part of the learning process ya


to be honest like that's what


err most people, in the industry, like would tell you, okay but I think it depends what you wanna do like I've thinking a lot like I was attending a conference just now then like


ya I I realised that it really depends what I want to do lor and like what I want like I'm thinking of branching into a more social kind of thing like more, like there's this thing where basically like I focus less on the money making aspect and more of the social aspect of the industry


ya so I'm not sure how the landscape of, that area is like, I guess is what I'm interested in so it's probably more meaningful also lah ya


!wah! <mandarin>一点零二点零:yi dian ling er dian ling</mandarin> ah, I think my course, generally I don't know like maybe it's just the nature of it like, generally people don't do that badly I guess


but it's not like super low though is like, like twelve


okay fair fair, !aiya!, I mean, to be very honest like what we study may not be what we do like I'm very interested in what I study like so I think I'll probably do it the future but


really have to see what doors are open lor, what everything easy


what do you mean like, no what like I I work like there are a lot of things like okay, I would say that to be very very honest like, only until poly was there points where I work hard and didn't get what I what so I guess that is fairly


there's a fair statement for most of my life, but , ya I realise that, like life is, more than that like


I mean I read that too I guess I don't really have much opinions because I feel that like, it's really too complicated and, ya like I don't know a solution lah <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> I think also like <mandarin>没有帮助的:mei you bang zhu de</mandarin> mah so


!aiya!


ya, but I mean, on the topic of like US lah like do you think you would ever want to live there


what kind of prestige <mandarin>你是说去那边读书:ni shi shuo qu na bian du shu</mandarin> ah


ya but I mean like what if, like it is not not just degree lah but I mean


fair fair but then okay, then okay <mandarin>不讲不讲去那边住:bu jiang bu jiang qu na bian zhu</mandarin> lah then okay <mandarin>留学:liu xue</mandarin> leh like if you go there to study or maybe not just US like <mandarin>别的国家:bie de guo jia</mandarin> leh


I don't know like I will I'm consider going to australia <mandarin>因为那边:yin wei na bian</mandarin> like the degree is recognised plus it's easier plus it's faster so <mandarin>去那边也不错:qu na bian ye bu cuo</mandarin> lah so <mandarin>我在考虑:wo zai kao lv</mandarin> lor


!aiya! <mandarin>你是吃吃吃:ni shi chi chi chi</mandarin> lah !aiya!


okay but, (hmm) then if you could travel now where would you go, , wait what what's your ideal holiday though


eh but then <mandarin>你有没有:ni you mei you</mandarin> like <mandarin>喜欢看风景的:xi huan kan feng jing de</mandarin> cause like, I I don't know lah I think in the recent years ah <mandarin>我突然间:wo tu ran jian</mandarin> like <mandarin>喜欢很多怪怪的东西:xi huan hen duo guai guai de dong xi</mandarin> leh like, last time I I I don't know okay I think definitely it's like nature like last time like I completely don't appreciate I'll be like !wah! so hot everything then <mandarin>好像这几天:hao xiang zhe ji tian</mandarin> hor like !wah! like I appreciate it or like I don't mind like going for a walk in the park or whatever


I mean I went to #bukit timah# hill that day was not bad, ya it is like it's like hundred over meters


ya lah <mandarin>我懂:wo dong</mandarin> lah <mandarin>跟你出国跟你们全部出国是吃吃吃:gen ni chu guo gen ni men quan bu chu guo shi chi chi chi</mandarin> only lah


I guess it make sense but like, I don't know I I I also appreciate like, you know the like I want to know about like the culture and over there also but not so much, like go visit all the historical sites but rather just like


must try a bit of everything mah so I feel like I will usually like to see some of their cultural stuff then like


usually if I enjoy something I will just stay, but I mean <mandarin>你记得吗以前我:ni ji de ma yi qian wo</mandarin> after sec four I go to, I went to japan essentially on my own and then, ya I made a list of all the places I wanted to go, and I didn't manage to go to all but I didn't plan like what which day go where I just like


where I feel like going the next day so basically I plan the night before lah so I just know where I want to go the next day, ya and I just plan, ya ya my brother studies in japan but I mean he was having exams at that time so I essentially I went around everyday on my own I just stay at his house only that's all


no lah it's it's pretty big actually like they have like multiple campuses and all, err he's studying applied chemistry ya


ya he does he does research now like as in, basically his he finish all his learning or I think most of his learning modules like those <mandarin>读书的:du shu de</mandarin> that kind, then now he's doing research ya so he's I think he's planning he's almost definitely taking his masters


okay I think he is taking his masters already lah I don't know then like he's considering his PHD but, he I don't know lah like he say that he may consider like working for a company cause he has a scholarship now then maybe he can ask whether he can get a job at the from the firm after that


which he says will be quite good or if he goes into research then like, you don't earn as much money so like no point lah like I don't know what he wants also lah


it depends cause like okay so for like my brother right like, err, okay he's either doing pharmaceutical or like petrochemical gas that kind then he will either be working in a company doing research for the company or doing research like


at a university, ya but then for me, I can work in many like I can do many different types of things like, I can be the person designing I can be the person, planning I can be the person drawing like drawing as in like all the software stuff so there's really many things and then there's also like the commercial kind there's the more private house kind there's like the social urban kind that I'm more interested in


I mean there's engineering as part of not as in part of architecture but like, part of the built environment there's engineering also but, but that's not what I want lah no lah I'm not considering that like for me, I'm pretty sure I'm in I'm gonna be the field whether I'm doing technical stuff


or whether I'm doing err, like more theoretical stuff or whether I'm doing like planning and design ya so, I where I see I see myself doing more like, design and planning stuff so I'm considering like I need to apply for internship soon


so <mandarin>可能会去那种:ke neng hui qu na zhong</mandarin> err like err <mandarin>可能去:ke neng qu</mandarin> government agency or err I'm considering lah <mandarin>还是那种小小的:hai shi na zhong xiao xiao de</mandarin> like social enterprise kind of thing <mandarin>也有可能:ye you ke neng</mandarin> lah ya


oh <mandarin>我是:wo shi</mandarin> year three sem one then so basically after my second year I think february march I go in already, but but my intern is only twelve weeks so after that <mandarin>就回去回去学校做:jiu hui qu hui qu xue xiao zuo</mandarin> project lor


ya I mine is like, so I have lectures for six months that I'll have one major project that last six months so I had one last year than now year two I am starting the the major project on monday then it will last for six months until next year before intern


ya that's what I was supposed to do over the holidays but I kind of slacked off, a bit !oops! because I mean I have been researching I got like a lot of tabs open on my comp but <mandarin>还没有决定:hai mei you jue ding</mandarin> lah


err, at first I was thinking small firm so like firms that probably do like smaller projects like houses and all that


like what I like one lah like the social kind so at first I I found this new place like called centre for liveable cities is under the ministry of development so government agency


but I'm not sure whether it's really what I want then today like I was attending a conference then <mandarin>我又听说有:wo you ting shuo you</mandarin> like <mandarin>有很多那种小小的:you hen duo na zhong xiao xiao de</mandarin> like they are private companies but they do like social architecture, so I'm quite interested lah <mandarin>所以可能会去那种:suo yi ke neng hui qu na zhong</mandarin> lor


oh no not social enterprises as in so there's this aspect of architecture called social architecture basically, err, more community based design like less, less like ideal for a company or ideal for like a family like <mandarin>是那种:shi na zhong</mandarin> like


err for the community so there is one that I was listening to today <mandarin>它是:ta shi</mandarin> I think at the HDB estates <mandarin>它会有一个在:ta hui you yi ge zai</mandarin> like beside the market that kind then, like an intervention meaning like a physical installation that maybe gets people to interact that kind of thing then there are other groups that maybe do like


like maybe in a void deck space you do something or like, ya that kind lah but I mean


sorry


!huh! really meh no lah like this kind of this is quite a niche not say niche lah but I think most of my friends will be applying to like, firms that actually build houses like these kind of firms I think usually won't do house projects ya, or like residential projects


most of my friends don't know I'm like one of the people who one of the few people that <mandarin>大概大概:da gai da gai</mandarin> know one


I won't say already know what he wants but I'm the extra kid that actually goes to like find out what he likes


ya lah I mean definitely I think it's good but it's also part of my nature lor that like, like don't know where I'm going like I feel that is important to, to like, have a direction lah


ya that's why I guess it also causes me a lot of anxiety, err it also pushes me to go, like find out what I want so, I don't know lah good and bad lah but I mean <mandarin>我们还小:wo men hai xiao</mandarin> mah


ya that's true, !hais! I mean, we we change a lot lah over the years


yeah I mean make sense lah like <mandarin>我也是:wo ye shi</mandarin> , I mean <mandarin>我以前也是做很多:wo yi qian ye shi zuo hen duo</mandarin> stupid things one lah like you also know what right


!wah! <mandarin>你又来趁机:ni you lai chen ji</mandarin> shoot <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> ah


I had my fair share of, like stupid things childish things, !hais!, ya it's true, I mean !wah!


I still enjoy like


ya I mean, ya then <mandarin>你还记得吗:ni hai ji de ma</mandarin> then that day <mandarin>我带那个:wo dai na ge</mandarin> party <mandarin>来学校:lai xue xiao</mandarin> then I went to like fix the ceiling


ya !wah! fun times man


nicholas and gerald and john


ya I mean that's true but I mean, I I guess that's what makes us a bit different because like we we thought about what we want to do and then we decided to do what we wanted to do, but I guess for them like they haven't figured out what they really want and or maybe they have already been thinking about it because they are quite caught up with A levels which


is quite, overwhelming I guess <mandarin>所以他们:suo yi ta men</mandarin> like just, not they don't care lah <mandarin>可是就是难:ke shi jiu shi nan</mandarin> lor so just like (hmm) like


no actually, err you but the thing is if I'm not wrong you can apply twice like, because you are in army so you can apply extra times is it something like that


!wah!, wait where where you where you applying to


ya, I mean if you feel that it's worth it maybe can consider like, the SAF like they have a lot of scholarships cause like I've a friend now who, like he's at army then he he's doing like info sec for the army now


while so basically he he gets like higher his army is three years long but then he gets extra pay and then like he's a civilian as in so basically <mandarin>他是:ta shi</mandarin> BMT <mandarin>过后:guo hou</mandarin> right <mandarin>然后他去:ran hou ta qu</mandarin> training training <mandarin>过后他现在每天:guo hou ta xian zai mei tian</mandarin> work like I think


eight nine to five or eight to five think nine to five then <mandarin>每天回家:mei tian hui jia</mandarin> then <mandarin>每天就是去那边做:mei tian jiu shi qu na bian zuo</mandarin> info sec


ya and I mean actually doing like working for the army is not a bad idea, but I guess it's really up to you lah like cause you want flexibility what right


I think army okay like if you get scholarship you are probably bonded after lah, but it really depends oh like my friend <mandarin>他是:ta shi</mandarin> singtel scholar <mandarin>以前所以:yi qian suo yi</mandarin> he got singtel bond also so, ya lah like after after army then he need then he uni after uni go singtel


so ya lah got of funny things lah !aiya! don't know lah


relax quite a bit lah so I guess I don't mind that it's starting but, I also a bit scared because, !wah! a a bit stress lah and also


err like, ya I just I just scared to start that like six month long project, and I would I don't wish that holidays were like a lot longer but maybe one more week will be good for me to like really get things back in order ya


I I legit shag but I mean, I think if I'm not wrong my thursday also is like by booking only so I effectively only need to like go back tuesday wednesday maybe for like one hour


or two hours


my name, mine is Harmah and my partner is Fazlinah, but let you copycat, I already say nafsu tu it's uh it's a it's a person's capability it's not my own


if they if he tegur then it's not my problem what, ya


I've I've stated it all out already why am I wearing like this, it's my opinion right


it's the guys' fault, fetish and err err so, if I'm going alone don't think what other people say and just wear what you want to wear


freak that, and it's a compliment, if a guy looks at you that way that means,


ya it's a compliment what no meh, I find, I mean if you think of it lah, ya


ya ,


oh ya the the yang kat national day tu eh, you're not slutty though that's not the word you should use , like slutty is a word


what did I bite into, he he told you yang kau macam slutty


but you were wearing normal clothes what, ah exactly, !huh!

ya very busy then aku macam okay nevermind it's okay I understand, and then he he say trust me after all of these finish already I will talk to you, then I was like it's okay


it's okay, no never, , no lah but all the guys like that I talk to


either horny okay or ya DTF ah I'm nah clearly said that I don't want that


, ya exactly, ya don't, don't do what I do , like

ya lah that one is not


ah, oh tu !wow!,


, it's okay oh my god dapat Bbang, sister dapat Bbang, oh my god, is this cookie or what no it's not cookie normal eh


thank you Fazlinah, how you know I like these ah, serious, should try the durian one, yup


tu ah, why'd you do that and rub it in his face, it's filling though


burn skin [jer] sia ya


what the hell ah, they get together


is it the location the rest of the world, ya


they fought is it, ya


, start work where


when you starting, , , last day


die ah


just just, can go to hell ah you , it's okay nevermind, what a what a plot twist


I'm like, ah


oh okay the guy is it, (uh huh)


how tall, !huh! , but


okay then no, not my type, the my type is the one that hangs out at Bugis


ah no no it's not, ya ah what what what you gonna do, that's my question you know I want to ask you know, ya serious


like ya because what if you know, oh, properly ah ya


oh K K K ah, , first ya, real relationship, ah that one stupid ah


that's kind of long sia, that's like two years later eh, but technically speaking if he comes back to you after two years right I think you would have moved on sia


I think you would have moved on already, like now you're in the process, I think after six months you already dah dah dah tak kisah ya


for you for him it's easy, because guys will have the mindset that they can get everything they get they want , serious serious they they can they will use that


they'll I don't know what what power lah okay but macam dia orang they have like this mindset right that they okay anything I say or anything I do confirm girls confirm girls will fall for it, ya, ya


ya, , the thing is you don't know that's why, exactly


oh my god


Astarghfirullahalazim


, I don't know why many people many girls find Izuan handsome termasuk kau but, I don't know it's just me even elfie cakap tau ya ya !oi! that time aku tanya dia eh


eh iya ke jazli and Izuan handsome, then dia kata a'ah not bad why abeh dia cakap dia orang handsome ke because most girls find find them handsome, no sorry


yes, for sure lah correct correct, , that one ya that one ya that's the truth ah, Izuan is like, , he came into the picture later exactly


maybe ten percent ya, I'm not supposed to tell you


I mean you cannot tell lah but, okay you get the feeling, oh, ya exactly


I mean if you moved on already what can you say, if the feelings hilang already what, okay if caring okay, his one right I think his type of like macam


err his kind of, convincing or talk or apa apa ah in general, his type is to like macam lead you on, lead you on, ya, get you into thinking things that are otherwise the things, to get you into thinking things that


are otherwise that he thinks, okay, okay macam okay, he talks to Humairah about you right, K that makes you think he hasn't moved on right


but instead if you ask him that face to face he will say oh I just care care for you as a friend, ya exactly that's that's that's what I meant by he keeps leading on, ah


so you get what I mean now, that's why, don't high hope sia,


never ya just dont care about him move on zack is in front of you even if zack doesn't like like you again, maybe in the future maybe will, ya exactly


so jangan don't don't think that that is the end of the world also, ya lah


she got cheated, oh my god


like just like that, cheat juga so it's two ways, oh my god


ah ah, she straight up said that, break up


oh okay,


so they are still together, serious ah, , IG


, , I mean, you can't K the thing is kau tak boleh expect like a guy to look so great, for you


right


ya , CB ah CB circuit breaker , ya it's very rare to like find guys who are less, you know have that


, ya


, oh ya kau tolak eh kau cakap I I'm still moving on, high hopes eh


, , oh ya


why, oh okay now I get it because, okay lah now getting because I think he say because split I do number isn't ah linguine with me to select and mulberry is opposite lor


!alah! kesiannya you but did you tell him that, but did you tell him that, !alah!


ah, , so cute


but like if a guy if you know that he feels like that right, you should just tell him that kau orang together not because your expectation of a guy is


now what time, okay I mean dia tak teruk seteruk aku tau but


, , but what can he do so, , it's okay, it's okay, that's that is the beauty of like having friends lah itu [jer]


he does trust me, you told like so vaguely you told him what


ya lah okay you're you're moving on two months dia dah break up dengan kau two months


, okay I'm not I'm not saying it's a bad thing but, I mean ya you're kind of fast lah but, rather than him might as well you go for someone else right


ya exactly, you're right, !huh! really ah , guys who kenal-kenal me also


straightaway the answer legit would you like to, would you like to have that,


that that has been my conclusion all my years, you know that Mirah tell me you know like okay


ya then after that kau cakap kita cakap okay do well for your meeting


oh okay okay sorry then we were going home right, ah, no no err kita kita semua naik nine six nine balik ya ya Umirah then after that no we were queueing [kan]


then sekali err two of us were walking in front, then after that she asked me like have you had a boyfriend before


then aku cakap err not really just cakap cakap [jer], because I got the dating app also then after that err dia cakap I asked her back lah you have boyfriend before


that was like somewhat close to, uh dating ah, then he told me, yes she told me she told me about his macam apa cakap oh dia dulu budak madrasah and stuff like that


ya then like the reason was also so stupid, like the girl dia punya ex gaduh dengan gaduh ya I'm like


ya exactly it's not her what humairah madrasah ke takkan alim [jer], okay no I'm I'm not stereotyping lah but


I mean isn't that, she told me that you know Umirah, she said she knows that some


the guy bought, [kan]


can you imagine if I tell Izuan that, I say that, even if like there's there's plenty of guys asking me for it, but but look like at the kids yang dah pernah madrasah even if I don't know they have done it


I wanna see his reaction then he will be like very annoyed confirm, I literally gave up you know when he said that aku macam tak nak gaduh lah diam [jer] lah


he said what layer layer layer aku cakap am I not layering that one, [kan], ya sia


oh Huzni texted you while we were talking that one, , I'm not the only one wearing like that what there's other girls also who wear like that


okay it's not it's not bad that he tegur but tegur tu like


I'm just saying ya, ya, if he says like that I don't mind but he says as if I'm the I'm the macam I'm the one wrong


ya you I look at you then after that I was like thinking, what the hell


ya the one he said when you were what what made him talk about it ah, ah


I mean it's your opinion on what you wear what


you're telling me not to wear things, ya exactly, as a friend okay I understand, your point of view, but don't don't make it seem as if as if it's my fault for dressing like that and then I lure guys into doing it


eh you !wah! shit sia cannot sia like you can see my whole face it's not that obvious, ya even if I I asked Husni you know, like it's way before


then aku just cakap in my opinion I think


err husni came to a conclusion he just said that , ya then after that aku macam it's like aku cakap ah macam sometimes you just play the dating app just to get to know the person itu [jer]


for fun also what kau nak kenal-kenal orang [jer] [pe], and then err suddenly you say, then he, okay that one was okay I understand he say that


that is nice if he said that, then after that aku cakap lah aku cakap dengan dia like uh the guy I talking to that Irfan, ya I told you ya it's yesterday


then after that I obviously I , err, then after that because that Irfan guy right he commented he, he talked to me about my picture, the one that I put, ya


then kata aku cakap , because it's all black you cannot see the shape


it's just one line dah tu [jer], oh so so like what's the problem it's just one line, if you, if guys also do that we can see what if I ask Husni to do Husni also have what,


(mmhmm)


about what, she wasn't inside what


she wasn't inside what, ya, [kan] like what's what's wrong with with what I wear


and the thing yang aku pakai tadi [kan] baju tu [kan] yang colour purple you cannot see anything what


ya it's just the ke belakang what, ya it's supposed to be worn with sports bra, ya exactly


just go about my day I'm I'm just gonna ignore everything that happened yesterday bruh


ya because right if you wear like that, then suddenly I wear like that, ya


ya, then after that uh my


ah after a while until it will wear off you if you ignore what


so just kalau kau tak pakai takpe lah, this is the first time I post about yang I tak pakai tudung just ambil gambar biasa [jer] [kan]


wifi, , you know some even the some of the girls right


that I know from when I went to china, I go to china, even the girls that I know that pakai tudung [kan] right, they come back, they they buka somewhat they same time as me I mean after me


ya serious, so I don't know ah it's just, ya, cause dah biasa [kan] dah daripada dulu kecil then after that


then I stopped at ITE second year


it's just that, up to you ah you want to wear it or not, some of them don't let right


ya, prohibition of wearing hijab right, ya but, ya, I'm just gonna


it's very stupid if they ban that lah macam bodoh sangat lah, why why did they ask


it feels like it makes you feel like shit right, that's that's the bad thing you know because it's your adik right then you are the kakak you're supposed to show example then they they have the mindset that


ya you're supposed to learn from your kakak that's all, , the knowing then okay lah maybe I'll go back


I'll go back, man ya you cannot say anything about that lah


ya that's that is the only thing you should care about, do all at once but


so, there's a reason why it happened so it's okay


, obviously you ngaji kena pakai [pe]


yes, then like, oh uh


later I buy, aku ketuk kau , ah


no they said three o'clock like that, his problem lah not my problem, Funan ada apa [siol]

ya , then furthermore I never been to err, winter country before also


so ,


yes, , ya indeed indeed


uh <mandarin>没有:mei you</mandarin> eh like I've never been to ya I've never been to korea before, , ya then ya then after that because my family travel there before but because back then I was still studying so <mandarin>我没有那个机会:wo mei you na ge ji hui</mandarin> to <mandarin>去:qu</mandarin> to <mandarin>跟他们一起去:gen ta men yi qi qu</mandarin> lor


therefore , this year I still don't know eh I still finding people though, plus at ya


!oho! oh, further than the than the <mandarin>首尔:shou er</mandarin> lah


ya due to covid lah then then what's your plan other than holidays, ,


!wow! that's nice that's nice, okay, for me other plans other than holiday is it, I think generally uh


ya learn ya learn their language first, not yet that's what I plan to do, yes


!oho! oh, okay because I don't know how exactly it works so I have been contemplating whether, to go or not lah because I've been going the website to <mandarin>看来看去:kan lai kan qu</mandarin> but haven't really decide yet


but like ,


yes yes, I understand understand that okay


but okay lah at least you know you can actually use the credit to know whether you really want to master the language or not or just ya like a trial lah


ya, ya correct then after that see whether I like it and ah to further or not


(uh huh)


oh (uh huh) true, true that lah because, , ya but same same for me lah because you know sometimes you had you you want to maintain


the language you have to in use the language often, , I guess so I mean


I mean I've been watching korean dramas like, almost half a decade lah ya so here and there I pick up here and there I pick up a few lah so ya but the but the then there's also a risk because they because for korean language <mandarin>他们有:ta men you</mandarin> like <mandarin>分那种:fen na zhong</mandarin> err former <mandarin>还有:hai you</mandarin> informal <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> so the


ya, ya correct that then then that they are they are very err very concerned about <mandarin>那种:na zhong</mandarin> age <mandarin>的就是长辈:de jiu shi zhang bei</mandarin> lah ya


oh


that's nice


ya correct, I I think, ya I think it is also uh nice to have someone that actually want to learn with you it makes the whole thing better lah and wants you and will <mandarin>就让你想更想要学更多:jiu rang ni xiang geng xiang yao xue geng duo</mandarin> lor


, with your friends lah more comfortable lah, ya


uh ya lah true lah true true true true true leh ya lor, because , I think because of covid there's there's quite a restriction on things that we can do lah I mean like basically basically in singapore you can only just travel or work only mah


, ya, ya correct, so ya lor, oh ya definitely, ya definitely


yes, , correct, correct correct


that's true I mean ya lor singapore is not big enough lah, but ya, ya


uh that that's true that's part of it but I mean that's that can be done also lah, (ppc), ya, ya of course I mean


I mean like there's nothing much you can do especially in such I mean singapore <mandarin>这么小又不可以做什么又不可以:zhe me xiao you bu ke yi zuo shen me you bu ke yi</mandarin> domestic travel the most <mandarin>你可以:ni ke yi</mandarin> travel <mandarin>只是去:zhi shi qu</mandarin> east side <mandarin>或是:huo shi</mandarin> west side <mandarin>而已:er yi</mandarin>


ya ya ya, (mmhmm), what we


ah okay okay


oh my god oh oh oh saying about that right I actually saw someone like ya smoking in their uniform also sia,


the the ya true, , I think now people


ya and you mean like they are selling, what the hell


uh no never I ah if someone approach me I mean I have encountered such issue before like I was uh ya I was uh, then after that uh someone approached me and asked me whether can he buy a


one cigarette from me


but I had ya but I I had I have never encountered someone to ask me to help them buy, cigarette lah,


(mmhmm) , ya ya uh that that's true lah


unless they have no ways then you have to approach girls lah, (ppc)


, that that one I'm not sure because because I haven't really talk to them much, ya so uh,


oh okay okay okay I I think one of them I know is who, ya okay ya that one I know but you said two of them but the other one I I, not not not very sure is who lah


but okay (ppc) as you were , uh on them opening their own business, uh (ppc) I think I mean it's okay for me it's okay for them to venture to their own businesses lah but of course uh


maybe we know when, uh <mandarin>怎怎怎么说呢就好像我觉得是要到了一个:zen zen zen me shuo ne jiu hao xiang wo jue de shi yao dao le yi ge</mandarin> level <mandarin>就是一个程一个一个:jiu shi yi ge cheng yi ge yi ge</mandarin> stage <mandarin>我觉得你才去做这些:wo jue de ni cai qu zuo zhe xie</mandarin> <mandarin>如果你的:ru guo ni de</mandarin> main job is not uh so called stabilised or ya stabilised then you go and do your own business then I think it's it makes no sense to me lah if you get what I mean


(ppc), (mmhmm)


I get why, , okay, (ppc)


for me because err I study baking back then, ya so probably I will uh open a dessert shop, ya ya because that was before before I joined this industry I was actually in uh F&B so my


my goal back then was to open a dessert shop lah, so I mean it's still it's still with me like I still want to open a shop that is related to baking, up till now ya so if given a chance back then uh if I can


open a business I would actually do do the baking business lah, , because because , oh this dessert shop ah actually err


not really because err but okay I I wouldn't say I look up to lah but I actually err, because I have err friends that actually opened their dessert, the shop


ya so uh, I wouldn't say that looked up to them lah but it's more like the err err, it's a positive uh uh, have positive uh


uh encouragement


something that <mandarin>我会:wo hui</mandarin> look up into lah, look up to lah, (ppc)


in singapore ah actually the shop is not err, what do you call that it's it's actually not a dessert shop, it's it's more like the cafe but they're actually known for their, what do you call that


so, it's actually uh, I can't I can't exactly remember the name already because it's, uh you have to give me a second to


oh it is actually at red hill it's a cafe, ya red hill ya they're actually err I actually worked there before so so (ppc) so they're actually a cafe then they are actually more known for their


their dessert their cakes, then also known for like uh wedding ceremony there also, ya correct like you do your you like you do your ROM then you can book their their venue there


shiny cakes uh no, oh glazed oh ya ya ya correct it's ya correct, I don't know is it the same thing we are talking about


but err , to , taste wise I actually because back then I work there back then was like very long ago so they have actually came out with a lot of new stuff so


I only tasted what is back there lah because back then they just uh open, ya just open only so taste taste wise from what I remembered is okay not bad but the


(mmhmm) (mmhmm)


oh okay


(mmhmm), (mmhmm),


okay okay I believe believe the price I mean the the, oh I remember the name already of the cafe it's called it's called Boufe B O U F E


ah ya correct ya ya ya correct, oh really, oh ya ya ya, correct, I


, okay, ya, err ya okay it's free parking I don't know because, for uh the place itself it's actually very Ulu


uh <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> cafe plus boutique, that's why they they have the ya it's cafe plus boutique because the boutique I used to work for the boutique


it's called I don't know if you've heard of it it's called ovora, ya (ppc) ya so I actually ya I used to work for them back then so that's how I know their this cafe lor, , because the box the the boss and the


the boutique that I worked for was a couple back then lah


ya okay sounds familiar


(oo), (mmhmm), I I realise


ya ya continue


I also actually I also don't like matcha I wouldn't say I hate but I don't like because they have this taste that I don't really like it, ya, ya the ya, ya so it's it's only certain matcha that you mix uh if you know that uh bubble tea got one is uh


matcha with the red bean, ya so that one


correct, correct correct correct, (mmhmm)


okay, okay can, ya I I actually I actually


japanese inspired, okay okay I would I think I have the name I will google I will google it later


(ppc)


yes, ya especially with this covid it's even worse, so what about yourself if you can start a business what would it be


I can understand but let's say assume that, , assume you have all the criteria etcetera what is one business that you actually want we will start or want to start


it, ya, okay


(mmhmm), (mmhmm) (mmhmm), !wah!


, and uh ya as <mandarin>对对而且而且现在不跟以前一样了现在:dui dui er qie er qie xian zai bu gen yi qian yi yang le xian zai</mandarin> K two <mandarin>就要补习了以前:jiu yao bu xi le yi qian</mandarin> K two <mandarin>哪里会有补习:na li hui you bu xi</mandarin>

per hour

so so I mean of course I'm not very close to her so I don't dare to ask her how much she charge et cetera but but ya because err her <mandarin>她的:ta de</mandarin> schedule <mandarin>很满的:hen man de</mandarin> so based on what you say right I think she could probably earn a huge sum


and she's and she's teaching secondary school kids


I mean for yourself is it, (mmhmm)


okay, yes, yes, yes that's insane


then ya then !walao! then sorry uh hundred dollars per hour eh can you imagine if you teach like based on what you translate that I think more than six thousand, if you got ya


ya so, ya so !wah! this this business I think is good

the imagery you don't, then you imagine you have, more than, err ten student, , !wah! you can easily earn up to five ya easily earn up to five figure eh


no wonder my, no wonder that friend <mandarin>她会转去教:ta hui zhuan qu jiao</mandarin> tuition because back then <mandarin>她是做:ta shi zuo</mandarin> marketing <mandarin>的突然间变成做补习老师:de tu ran jian bian cheng zuo bu xi lao shi</mandarin> (hmm)
