you know who to believe, and then one plus like they are really in their eighties then the guy is like divorce right so he rent a house outside for now but theres no way the two of them can stay together you know its just not possible, then he earns like very little as a security guard hes like what eighty three


well thats kind of thing is like you feel very sad, right then ya in the end we managed to get twenty five seventy five, that's why I think is not bad, and then <mandarin>不是我的功劳是:bu shi wo de gong lao shi</mandarin> judge <mandarin>的功劳:de gong lao</mandarin> but ya still quite proud of it okay but I literally did nothing


I just I just there, but


ya cause <mandarin>你不是:ni bu shi</mandarin> for profit organization mah <mandarin>你的你又没有:ni de ni you mei you</mandarin> KPI, ah, oh well well, interesting right


then you eh why you intending to do, as in what will your research be with, the organisation


oh <mandarin>所以你:suo yi ni</mandarin> update <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> information lah, oh okay okay


how about what could the stakeholders be, who could the stakeholders be


so isn't it kind of hard to say like oh if you work without thing then maybe you can help cause maybe most of the time it goes unreported, it just err just err just, observation lah


, okay


!huh! <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> but <mandarin>你不是:ni bu shi</mandarin> government organization meh, [orh] okay okay but project okay


okay, sounds interesting I mean actually


ya lah


thats why <mandarin>他那时候他讲他在读书:ta na shi hou ta jiang ta zai du shu</mandarin> then <mandarin>我在想:wo zai xiang</mandarin> !huh! <mandarin>你现在还上大学:ni xian zai hai shang da xue</mandarin> meh, as in it doesn't have any bearing on my life lah but I just curious you know


cause <mandarin>他没有用:ta mei you yong</mandarin> social media <mandarin>了他的:le ta de</mandarin> actually actually <mandarin>我没有:wo mei you</mandarin> follow <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> instagram but <mandarin>我有我有:wo you wo you</mandarin> add <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> facebook


ya <mandarin>她是那种很:ta shi na zhong hen</mandarin> popular <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> mah <mandarin>我就不想相信他没有用:wo jiu bu xiang xiang xin ta mei you yong</mandarin> social media, right, actually <mandarin>为什么他要这样:wei shen me ta yao zhe yang</mandarin> pop ah <mandarin>我不明白:wo bu ming bai</mandarin> is it because <mandarin>他很:ta hen</mandarin> like #ah lian#


[orh] ya lor <mandarin>没有:mei you</mandarin> leh


eh <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> #ah gong#, as in as in <mandarin>你讲:ni jiang</mandarin> #ah gong# what is not <mandarin>爷爷:ye ye</mandarin> what means that the the the business was started by


the mum's side, but the dad is working in the company, unanswered questions there will never be answered, eh do you think they are still to eh I think they are still together


the the <P1>ryan</P1> and the what's the name, name something is it <P1>lin ming</P1> I don't I cant remember, like like when they go out for like family lunch that kind of thing then they will post


we try okay we try to ship you okay, would we try to ship you with him okay we all tried tried so hard, you what you prefer <P1>kai wen</P1> is it


I think he he always fly one leh then when he fly right he doesn't think the budget airline one you know <mandarin>他每次会放:ta mei ci hui fang</mandarin> instagram then <mandarin>他每次:ta mei ci</mandarin> fly like China air lah


oh possibly possibly, but I know he's working


I could not say like super high end well if you say super high end then I would think of like, Emirates singapore, all the different different China airlines lah


but it means that <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> he doing quite well for W T to fly him oversea leh


but <mandarin>他在:ta zai</mandarin> he has <mandarin>那时候他在做什么:na shi hou ta zai zuo shen me</mandarin> ah like isnt it very linked to like bus, ya


<mandarin>不同的:bu tong de</mandarin> role


, unanswered question so no need to answer


reputation <mandarin>的问题还是那个:de wen ti hai shi na ge</mandarin> bid price not okay, but then


go ahead, go ahead go ahead, but <mandarin>有另外一个:you ling wai yi ge</mandarin> fund company <mandarin>我记得他:wo ji de ta</mandarin> bid like five times what we were bidding like what w t <mandarin>那时候:na shi hou</mandarin> bidding then it was very ridiculous


err <mandarin>三百三:san bai san</mandarin> like three zero zero or something like I I cant remember it whether its like three hundred million or something like already but


it was just a very anomaly lah, when we when we looked at it that that one I remember


but quite sad lor, like we you know they they spend so much money for an SME and then you didn't get it, true but the other companies were bidding were I I remember only got one other local bus companies bidding then after that <mandarin>就:jiu</mandarin> go ahead tower transit <mandarin>然后:ran hou</mandarin> SBS MRT


ya, the autism


okay, that's why then ya thats why nowadays right you know <mandarin>会很多那种:hui hen duo na zhong</mandarin> err <mandarin>有一点:you yi dian</mandarin> xenophobic <mandarin>不就:bu jiu</mandarin> xenophobic lah but then


的 <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> low err a minimum salary the financial services right to five K already right, ya, so <mandarin>有点:you dian</mandarin> ridiculous I feel, its like I get that we trying to kick out certain people right you know


so you can only get certain qualified people but does that you also mean that you just raised their salary


then <mandarin>他只有一个华人:ta zhi you yi ge hua ren</mandarin> like you know shes just there to like fill the quota and then like when <P1>michelle's</P1> mom like try to tell them like [orh] <mandarin>你要怎样做你怎样做:ni yao zen yang zuo ni zen yang zuo</mandarin> then <mandarin>就没有人听的所以:jiu mei you ren ting de suo yi</mandarin> like her mom <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> temp <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> Wor but obviously this is like just her account lah


but in the end right when times turn bad right like COVID they fired her instead of all the other indian employees who might not be doing as much work, ya, ya because is is like, it's like like they just wanted to keep the company like mostly of their own race lah


I mean the the same can be said for chinese what, I mean ya it is it is is fair you know how to say that apart, ya lah as in, sometimes companies like they do certain things like that what they prefer of certain race, ya


a list of companies that they do this kind of discrimination hiring hiring policies lor so the company is one of them


foreigners for management composition then few locals at like the non management position, that's how they bypass it, ya


ah <mandarin>对对对对他没有:dui dui dui dui ta mei you</mandarin> ah


local to meet the quota <mandarin>就:jiu</mandarin> okay Liao, so its like that lor


<mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> lor <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> lor


how to say like, but like he got he got bad bad like very backlash lah from society at large which but yet again right theres a lot of people who also


like, support him but I need a bit of time to find the article for you but maybe later I send you, well it's quite ridiculous lah, okay


then I ease it already cause like !aiya! you know <mandarin>很多人:hen duo ren</mandarin> class park right is for the sake of course parking lah, then <mandarin>你要很很费脑的:ni yao hen hen fei nao de</mandarin> then <mandarin>我就没有再听了我就一直在:wo jiu mei you zai ting le wo jiu yi zhi zai</mandarin> legit lah basically


and just like bite the bullet and maybe just get, err, why settle for a lower pay lah but some people are like eh we are not beggers what


like just because you are giving us a job doesn't mean that you know you need to be like


then <mandarin>他我不:ta wo bu</mandarin> I cannot remember like the individual, details but <mandarin>他讲第二个:ta jiang di er ge</mandarin> right <mandarin>他就问他就问那个:ta jiu wen ta jiu wen na ge</mandarin> interviewer ok <mandarin>我现在我住:wo xian zai wo zhu</mandarin> east side then <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> company is on the other side of singapore so do I have transport allowance if I have to go to work


or is it like work from home


okay <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> but then <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> annual leave <mandarin>你给我十四天你可以:ni gei wo shi si tian ni ke yi</mandarin> increased <mandarin>到二十一天嘛因为我之前的:dao er shi yi tian ma yin wei wo zhi qian de</mandarin> company <mandarin>是有二十一天:shi you er shi yi tian</mandarin> then <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> interviewer <mandarin>又有一点又有点不爽了又讲:you you yi dian you you dian bu shuang le you jiang</mandarin> !wah!


ya I remember <mandarin>还有一个是他就讲什么:hai you yi ge shi ta jiu jiang shen me</mandarin> ah <mandarin>我想一下:wo xiang yi xia</mandarin> err, [orh] <mandarin>他是:ta shi</mandarin> out of actually <mandarin>他是讲:ta shi jiang</mandarin> err


<mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> notice period <mandarin>你可以:ni ke yi</mandarin> shortened to one week mah cause actually I'm just taking this job too tight myself over this difficult time, !huh! one month, interviewer view interviewee like basically gave him a lecture lah like [orh] people times are bad but you shouldnt be doing this then <mandarin>他就很不爽就讲:ta jiu hen bu shuang jiu jiang</mandarin> !wah! what kind of interviewer then in the end I cant interview on like the job scope you know the pay and everything <mandarin>他就:ta jiu</mandarin> then he just took to facebook to rant lah


some people were supporting him on one side so they were like oh ya now times right !wah! all the strawberry generation odd times are bad people should just take a pay cut but on the other end also got a lot of people like, like you know say that eh but this guy like a bit iffy lah like where got the six K come and interview for three point six K job is like <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> job scope is it not clear enough or not cause six K right means that


that person should be senior position right then <mandarin>可能你的:ke neng ni de</mandarin> job scope <mandarin>不:bu</mandarin> clear right then <mandarin>你你给:ni ni gei</mandarin> junior position <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> pay then <mandarin>你要:ni yao</mandarin> senior position obviously <mandarin>他不爽:ta bu shuang</mandarin> right then <mandarin>他都讲:ta dou jiang</mandarin> ok lah <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> like shes okay to the lower pay but, as she asked for twenty one days annual leave maybe that's not unreasonable what


you know or like the second employer who employ a second interviewee who ask for transport allowance maybe that not a, this not ridiculous in light of how far she has to travel to work, you know that kind of thing is like ya if you really think about it then maybe you are the one who didn't indicate what and then subsequently right he posted another post !wah! he damn


well I tell you lah this one ah no goal eh basically he he he sent this email right later I show you then hes like err the title is something like termination of a of employment notice period so he sent this to his employees, and then he then in his email then he talk about how things are bad


but don't worry we are not letting you go just trying to tell you that you should work hard work smart not work hard, or something like that or like telling them to work harder, then he posted it on facebook again so obviously people like !wah! this guy again, it was like !wah! this is the kind of boss you don't want to under you know hes quite ridiculous right


ya is like, if you didn't hate him after the first post you will hate him after the second post, ya so shall you you better lookout like red flags reflects when you are looking for a job, is damn bad


is right ya, exactly


no but what if he was the one being ridiculous and then that guy is just giving him a reality check, unlike why I ask for thing like that twenty one day maybe he just telling him like [orh] you know, I should be entitled to this this this because I am asking for a lower pay you know that kind of thing plus maybe <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> job scope <mandarin>不:bu</mandarin> clear so you you waste my time then I waste back your time by lecturing you you know that kind of thing I would do that


eh if I'm in a senior position and you waste my time I will do that okay, next time, but this kind of people are very <mandarin>讨厌:tao yan</mandarin> what its like they damn entitle you know he see himself as like a god complex


like you know I'm giving you guys a job so you suck it and take it you know, it's like, the wolf, ya


that's why that's why I think the thing is he pick the seven best


ya stupid SME, ya, like you fresh grad you dare ask for transport allowance meh


true true true, eh I'm very curious how the others are doing at their work but like they just started right a few weeks in only


why leh <mandarin>不会被:bu hui bei</mandarin> fired meh, as in possible what


what if !aiya! what if I following on instagram cause sometimes quite entertaining its some of his points are valid some not all he a bit <mandarin>以偏概全:yi pian gai quan</mandarin> one lah lor, they like all the puppies fascism


pepys like PAP lah so, you just think that all the Hwa Chong and RJ people are all elitist and like, dark serious and is so but I think some of his points are valid cause he say like sometimes parents right they push their kids to work hard, or they push their kids to be what they want


in a person, so like some but, its like oh our parents always ask us to study hard but this is what they want, fast you have one like a steady career because you are kind of set for life once you graduate, which I get, ya


why did I bring in charles steward, I also don't know, ya I just follow him a lot on instagram then he post a lot on insta story I'm just like how does a lawyer have this much time, but <mandarin>他是他是:ta shi ta shi</mandarin> sole proprietor so <mandarin>他他是他自己:ta ta shi ta zi ji</mandarin> manage <mandarin>他自己:ta zi ji</mandarin> the firm


then okay lah <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> he just responsible for himself you know, why leh, but he is his only lawyer


then what that is what a sole proprietorship means bro, so <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> considered self employed, ya


ya but <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> I think (hmm), or he take a reduce rate lor theres some lawyer do that mah, like as you charge you do like cover costs or like


err you know a bit of money to cover my effort but I don't charge you like what big firm will charge, ya, cause like even though in singapore there is a lot of pro bono right then but sometimes if your income ceiling above it then <mandarin>你不能:ni bu neng</mandarin> apply


but it doesn't mean that your as income ceiling above it means you can afford whatever big shot lawyers mah so some of you still need this kind of cheaper criminal lawyers, which I I think its a good thing, cause sometimes I don't think its just about money


cause <mandarin>我以前有做过几个:wo yi qian you zuo guo ji ge</mandarin> case, internship but <mandarin>他只是:ta zhi shi</mandarin> part time internship then <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> lawyer right <mandarin>他六十多岁了所以他其实算:ta liu shi duo sui le suo yi ta qi shi suan</mandarin> semi retired


then <mandarin>我觉得不好看:wo jue de bu hao kan</mandarin> you know that kind of thing <mandarin>他就很老了:ta jiu hen lao le</mandarin> and then <mandarin>他就:ta jiu</mandarin> like very chill lah


then, the guy was abusing cough syrup, eh but hes a very good looking guy he used to be a air steward


ya then <mandarin>她结婚:ta jie hun</mandarin> then here !hey! he drink cough syrup lah then a bit damn lah then he wake up then he threw the fan off off the, off the office out of his HDB <mandarin>他他有点:ta ta you dian</mandarin> you know, like ya lah


then ya lor gets sue lah, ya then he come ask for help lor, and this kind of cases, like <mandarin>小小的:xiao xiao de</mandarin> cases <mandarin>不是说:bu shi shuo</mandarin> murder <mandarin>不是说:bu shi shuo</mandarin> like sexual misconduct <mandarin>就是比较小的:jiu shi bi jiao xiao de</mandarin> case, ya and then I think if you haven't take up a lot a lot of their time also then they are willing to give a cheaper rate


it's quite meaningful also, so how <mandarin>你要不要:ni yao bu yao</mandarin> take <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> masters of law, I check is thirty five thousand


, , eh but okay lah <mandarin>你没有:ni mei you</mandarin> student debt Liao <mandarin>你可以去:ni ke yi qu</mandarin> take on more


thirty five k, then <mandarin>他有:ta you</mandarin> twenty percent because of COVID then I'm like (hmm), twenty percent off because of COVID, after school fees then I'm like !huh!


should I study for another year for our masters when I actually know that I'm not qualified , I have a masters


it's like valentina they L L B comer, L L M guilt looks good okay, I don't know what it does lah but it just looks good, then more alphabet behind your name, eh but <mandarin>你可以做你可以:ni ke yi zuo ni ke yi</mandarin> study master of law like sometimes they consider people even if you don't have a bachelor of law degree


cause <mandarin>我我的班:wo wo de ban</mandarin> right like <mandarin>今天这个:jin tian zhe ge</mandarin> course <mandarin>有点奇怪他他:you dian qi guai ta ta</mandarin> night classes <mandarin>的话:de hua</mandarin> usually is conducted by external practitioner so they may be lawyers or they may be working in like organization this kind


then <mandarin>今天的:jin tian de</mandarin> module <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> risk and compliance, so you don't really need like a legal background but theres a lot of masters of law students in his class, then I know one of them right <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> as in hes a singaporean but <mandarin>他没有他没有:ta mei you ta mei you</mandarin> l b <mandarin>的它现在是:de ta xian zai shi</mandarin> hes working with I think singapore prison one or singapore


ya or singapore customs are not prison singapore customs, then he's doing A L M but he doesn't have a a bachelor of law degree, so quite cool lah, ya, err no


I would think they are but like today people prove me wrong, what, err like cause we were talking about like company structure right then <mandarin>他就讲他就问:ta jiu jiang ta jiu wen</mandarin> err what committee did we talk about


in our previous, lesson the answer is in the slides meaning it's just, audit committee, then that then <mandarin>他他:ta ta</mandarin> l m m guy right <mandarin>他就一开始:ta jiu yi kai shi</mandarin> fluff leh <mandarin>我不知道是真的听不到还是他:wo bu zhi dao shi zhen de ting bu dao hai shi ta</mandarin> fluff lah but basically <mandarin>他就讲:ta jiu jiang</mandarin> sorry prof I I cant really hear your question can you can you repeat then because hes not singaporean <mandarin>他就很:ta jiu hen</mandarin> strong <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> accent but I suspect english <mandarin>不是他的:bu shi ta de</mandarin> first lauguage


way lah then <mandarin>他还是讲:ta hai shi jiang</mandarin> sorry prof I cant really share you know that kind of thing <mandarin>他就:ta jiu</mandarin> pretend like technical difficulty then prof got another person to answer the question the person answer like


audit committee isn't it just like that simple as that you know then then then then like prof <mandarin>就问:jiu wen</mandarin> okay err philip do you understand the question now so what is another committee that we went through last week, then <mandarin>他就:ta jiu</mandarin> I'm sorry I couldnt really hear what the other person said you know then <mandarin>他就开始:ta jiu kai shi</mandarin> fluff !wah! <mandarin>我就讲的话:wo jiu jiang de hua</mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>这个人是讲是怎么样:zhe ge ren shi jiang shi zen me yang</mandarin> get into masters of law one its like then I


!wah! after that ah <mandarin>我快点去:wo kuai dian qu</mandarin> check <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> class list leh cause cause we got presentation groupings right well I do make sure he's not in my group sia and hes not then I am damn Heng so like just because you see a master of thought masters of law student in your group right doesn't mean is a blessing okay, so like I think smart move


I don't know that how this guy is doing, exactly, cause that the thing <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> english must be of a certain proficiency if you are not from a english speaking country also <mandarin>你要:ni yao</mandarin> take <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> interim test <mandarin>所以:suo yi</mandarin> by right his english wouldnt be so bad so I don't think its a


its a problem where like he <mandarin>听不懂:ting bu dong</mandarin> you know, cause he like I used to think that all and rhythms, but ah the rhythms is not whole true


ya but then, I think you don't need to be super Zai in english, I really don't think you need to, be able to convey your point, ya


but having said that right like so far like people I work with within the legal school like within law school people I work with right <mandarin>我没有看到:wo mei you kan dao</mandarin> bad writing, [orh] <mandarin>我需要去那个:wo xu yao qu na ge</mandarin> school right I I spot bad writing that I have to correct, so can we write better


food for thought, err as in got different level lah got different tier mah , like the tier one is like the sentences don't flow, like like you don't use connectors


that its just bad because I don't know what you are saying, the second kind is like you rainbow so your points go round and round, the third kind is , sometimes <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> sentence <mandarin>没有:mei you</mandarin> link


ya so <mandarin>你没有抓住重点:ni mei you zhua zhu zhong dian</mandarin> but that one, it's harder lah it's harder to grabs the main point of the time


until they start going to the firm to work


cause <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> GP <mandarin>没有:mei you</mandarin> a leh, but <mandarin>他们可能:ta men ke neng</mandarin> leh


so dumb, but <mandarin>我有看到了我的:wo you kan dao le wo de</mandarin> senior <mandarin>在那个:zai na ge</mandarin> homepage the website


!huh! you get the a greek recipe


then


err <mandarin>他官场失意:ta guan chang shi yi</mandarin> ah cause he couldn't he couldn't be a government official what and he wanted to be, alright so and like China is huge back then like in transport wasnt very <mandarin>发达:fa da</mandarin> you know then


how to say, like more prominent when it comes to chinese literature so I don't like english literature, ya, like shakespeare I don't really care, but but I I try to read like julius julius caesar also what


but I think there were a lot more that were happening during that time, cause that one was do you know, think, did he married cleopatra I I cant remember but cleopatra was in the scene so actually <mandarin>那时候那个地方:na shi hou na ge di fang</mandarin> right they were in a lot of wars


ya that's it <mandarin>就很:jiu hen</mandarin> superficial you know


romeo juliet, julius caesar, err, !hais! <mandarin>我比较喜欢:wo bi jiao xi huan</mandarin> chinese literature


because <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin> I will again like a lot more exposure


to literature stuff cause for chinese culture like C C two lah B S P, err, not say I don't like <mandarin>历史:li shi</mandarin> but I had, a lot of exposure to


China contemporary history when I did literature in JC, Taiwan literature, but I don't touch Taiwanese literature when I was in JC


ya it is mostly chinese China singapore, and I really really like literature


eh but <mandarin>我突然间我想起来我怎样进:wo tu ran jian wo xiang qi lai wo zen yang jin</mandarin> NTU <mandarin>的我就觉得蛮新奇的:de wo jiu jue de man xin qi de</mandarin> leh never mind I just I miss <mandarin>掉:diao</mandarin> matriculation already so I didn't metrically like I didn't accept plus I wasnt even accepted into NTU chinese I was accepted into NTU psychology


so I just broke into the school then I'm like hi I am interested in NTU chinese studies, can I read like given a spot then I just send in my transcript and then they were like okay, you know what I did that alright, did I I ever boast


it's damn crazy bro, smack, oh actually I ask them psychology also so I was like oh okay I'm interested in like either this or these which one can you offer me a spot then they said and psychology full so they give me chinese studies ya


so quite weird lah oh chinese not full ah, that batch fast so <mandarin>也是:ye shi</mandarin> entry batch <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> twenty something eh twenty sixteen


eh but, what you gonna do with


but it's not, PR, ya, ya, then I feel like I have got a few is like their chinese not good but you cannot go into any other course already then they are here


ya which is quite sad cause imagine having to do chinese for four years when you don't like it


then, okay so that was one of the core mods [lah] then <mandarin>还要学:hai yao xue</mandarin> still need to learn the


eh <P2>Nads</P2> I haven't seen you in a long time ah, me too ah like as usual ah you know


, right right, then like, what what you study over there ah like in Australia


uh uh,


ya ya alright, me what school, now I in SP ah, Singapore Poly ah that's


, my course ah my course is uh DMR also known as apa uh marine engineering, like dia macam okay so basically, err apa err diploma [kan] is like working either apa the sailing or or at a shipyard gitu ah


so like okay so, err for like my third year [kan], okay for third year aku rasa uh aku what ah, need to choose either sailing or a shipyard job ah, so like


six month gitu ah away from your families lah which I don't think I personally think I cannot ah you know, ya that's why ah cannot ah you know


for me I don't know ah we usually we like homesick ah you know so I go, on overseas, ah


then also apa eh SP DMR okay apa dia eh oh okay


CCA, uh I haven't pick yet ah any CCA yet, but like I planning to ah so now apa eh uh my first year [kan] ah I only got to like try out the different CCA ah so like we all can like


club activities [kan] so for my first year as part of a, as part of a module


, ya,


okay ah I find floorball quite interesting ah like, quite fun ah you know enjoyable your ah kawan kawan you know quite fun ah, but like honestly it's not something I like ah as a sport ah you know if


ah apa eh okay SP got offer quite a few sport ah, but I I don't know ah for poly I maybe won't pick like apa eh


uh sports CCA ah I will definitely choose something else ah, maybe like okay so for SP they got clubs ah


okay so you know got different schools right, got like the engineering dia ada punya business, then you got my school lah called SMA the maritime academy then got the design everything right, so they got their own clubs ah, so my one is uh SMA club


uh interview eh when you first join then they prompt you to join then I apply [kan] then I went for the interview


I like talk a lot for the interview but then I tak dapat you know, ah that's why then like my friends who like just join then they like very blur blur then they apply they get you know then I like !walao! eh, ah


ya that's why, but hopefully if I tried apply again dapat ah, ah that's why , ya ya true ah it's okay lah


sports, clubs ah I think clubs can ah but I think you if I not wrong you also can, join other school clubs you know let's say you SME you can join design school club also, ya legit not joking man


, ya can can actually can ah SP so possible


kay, your school what what course you take ah for you I know you are in year one but what course ah


(mmhmm),


, , then what are the modules you will like learn


(mmhmm), (mmhmm) okay, ah


for me personally [kan] uh I enjoy the apa workshop ah not for like year one, because I apa secondary school I pilih ah what as my elective I pick D&T okay design and technology ah, so like for workshop practice is like something not something new for me lah cause I got experience in secondary school [kan]


arc welding ah something new ah then I macam lepak lepak you know, ah like four hours of our that one you know and it's a module you know


like for for workshop is is a module and is uh about four credit score you know, ya so something easy can like get A ah you know, ya it's not bad but like honestly workshop is very fun ah for me


really enjoy ah cause like you can hang out hang out with my friends you know, then like you can do to do work together, something fun lah, ya


ya, then okay for my course right uh they got year one for year one to year two they only have like workshop practice you know like they equip you with like uh different kind of apa eh dia punya skills ah


like we are they like, valve fitting or something all those kind of stuff right, then for year three ah is where like the interesting part lah, cause no no no before the internship [kan], err apa they


what ah the ship's engine turbine and like the ship's engine uh fuel system you know so like for us uh students right before we go for internship right you must understand ah all these kind of uh machinery how it works


cause if we just go for uh what ah, if you just go for interview eh no sorry my bad but instead of interview apa eh uh internship when you go for internship err what without any skill how you gonna progress right know what I mean


ya true so we need to equip ourselves with like some skills ah before our internship, oh what also ah, oh ya there's one interesting thing I I learned about from my seniors for year three, okay so they have this


eh they have this like a room a chamber room if I'm not wrong is the, uh, uh purifier room okay purifier room is macam like they do the heating of the main engine all that right so in this room right err you are given if I'm not wrong is part of a test ah it's like they are given five minutes to fix all the valve properly to the pipes


and also okay when you feed the valves right you must ensure that there is no leakage now, so like uh as the water level rises so it's about five minutes ah it takes five minutes for a ship to sink so that's an application you know so you must like quickly think fast


if I'm not wrong kita will be in groups of five people five people so you have to like maintain the piping system, water piping system and to prevent any leaks as the water level rises cause the okay eventually the water level will rise lah but you must prevent it from going up to our like chin area you know so as you are fixing the valve water will start flooding you know you know


so it's like a real life situation if you were to be like on board ship, so you must think fast ah ya, ya


ya that's why, that test ah honestly I haven't experienced yet ah cause I only year two now ah but something I look forward to ah


but for me because I choose shipyard it doesn't really concern me ah cause shipyard job it's not like maintenance of the ship you know shipyard job is mainly macam like inspection you know like okay as


as you become a marine engineer engineer in the shipyard industry, ya shore job you can progress to become a surveyor, or err what you call the inspector lah so they will maintain and check all the valves whether they're in correct order whether they are working properly to prevent like any failures when the ship sails you know


so that's more of like what a profession that, I'm looking forward to like go into lah like that ah ya, ya hopefully ah (mmhmm)


, not bad ah not bad ah


kay for me right apa eh uh in my free time I like to game you know, spend a lot of time playing game ah, but then like okay okay firstly I start when I game right uh I start off with mobile gaming ah then I started moving to apa dia punya competitive scene ah


(oo) Shiok ah I tell you, like because like mobile competitive a lot of people are also going into it, it was like in the early twenty fifteen sec- my secondary school days twenty two ah then the prizes macam uh gift card vouchers so like as a student I I would not want to miss out right


so something ah, something to kill time also ah in secondary school you know ,


then for you eh your free time what you normally do ah


(mmhmm), ya true true, then like just now you ask me like for my what SP got any CCA I join right then for you eh cause like you know you are like


uh year one right like fresh student right got any plans or not to join any CCA for your poly have or not, legit ah


, (mmhmm), (oo)


, so okay ah based on my experience right, if okay I think you should honestly go for the trials first ah cause like all the seniors will be like advocating you to like join a CCA like promoting CCA for you to join right so you go see lah which one you enjoy the most


know like okay like you I I personally I know that you will play floor ball in like what primary school or secondary school is it, ya so you obviously ada experience [kan], so maybe you can make it to what uh Temasek poly uh floor ball team ah who knows ah


, ya who knows who knows but I know the TP floor ball team very competitive ah, know


see which one you like the most y'know, oh


today ah I just finished my, last paper you know today, ah okay lah because like semalam I got study like the whole night you know like macam two AM


uh got a lot of content you know like one module can have like what eighteen chapters crammed into one one two hour paper, oh my goodness legit, so much to study


okay ah hopefully hopefully ah hopefully hopefully can pass ah, but then ah after the paper like, at three PM gitu I went for an appointment ah


for what ah, it's for like , for my , infection ah or it's like how to say it's like a pimple lah you know in a sense and it bleeds ah so I have to go for appointment ah


check up first, and I read up ya it it's very painful and very itchy you know, but then I read up ah or on this right it's actually called the pilonidal cyst you know, and it's like ya is what very what very contagious you know so it has to be treated then I read up read up then they say apa eh uh it needs to be like a surgery needs to be performed


you know so I immediately have to go down for consultation ah so like okay I pick today's date because I thought like apa eh, uh it's a weekday and there will be there won't be a lot people ah, but then when I went there ah my goodness


like legit a lot of people ah I tell you !alamak!, legit all the makcik makcik atuk atuk !oi! all queuing up lah, !wah! then I have to wait you know for like what one hour for my turn ah


I register then I have to wait one hour !alamak! no, then you're so crammed you know, oh my goodness, some reason I thought week day three plus, nobody will be there what right but then got a lot of people ah should have picked another day


the surgery ah okay so like kay just now I went for the appointment right then the doctor right keep, advising on the surgery, like okay ah, then then he keep saying like don't do this surgery ah cause like I'm only eighteen [kan]


then like it will affect my future ah, cause this surgery is it's like, quite risk ah quite high risk ah, have to like what cut open that one put me on anaesthesia


the root right that grows on that pimple right once they take out they cannot stitch it back you know, so they have to ya, uh pull a skin


so I cannot imagine ah a'ah, ah confirm painful sia legit, but, ya I think it's like two months from now ah, if I'm not wrong ah,


ya man, ya hopefully ah don't know ah, I quite worried also ah, like you know might affect you know


, ah,


(mmhmm), ya hopefully ah why need to happen ah


ya, !wah! honestly right I just I just worried man


cause I go in only they got like a lot of doctors you know I think there was about, three doctors in the room ah then they wanted to inspect the you know you know, the wound, then I like quite scared ah then they start pinching pinching the wound then a lot of like the


the fluid ah come out then the blood all come out then I damn scared ah, it was damn painful ah, for some reason I don't know ah damn worried ah but overall okay lah I I


in two months' time I have to meet the doctor again at hospital you know maybe go for the surgery ah, ah don't know lah, whatever ah okay lah good good ah


ya I also cannot imagine sia,


ah I've been thinking right okay so like okay, e, how should I say this ah, err kay, I heard right that uh in your free time [kan]


in your free time [kan], uh what, uh do like apa small business eh is it is that what you do, small business you never say !huh! I thought you say that time


ah ya calligraphy business when uh like apa notebook ah, ah


(oo),


oh,


alright alright, (mmhmm), what do I normally do kat rumah eh


err honestly okay since I just got a PC uh obviously game all day lah, but other than that, I will definitely start doing my own business ah, you know like, I will, buy like stuff online and reselling them ah


I I've been doing like what one type of business ah, the apa uh apa airports cover business obviously not bad ah the business the profits ah ya, like I buy from online external shops


for like quite a reasonable price then I will try and resell it for like double the amount lah so I'll try to make like extra cash you know on the way lah so not too bad lah I tell you, (mmhmm)


ya, (mmhmm) ya true true


first place I want to travel after COVID ah got a lot ah, (hmm) , I would want to go back to, where I want to go Paris ah, ah it's a hot spot man I mean I've been there before ah


like the apa the Paris Disneyland, !wah! shiok ah I tell you, legit damn fun, or if cannot Paris I'll definitely go back to what that time I visit you at Australia, what Gold Coast ah !aww! the beach


not bad ah, I know right we spend the whole day over there , ya you ya I got sick you know on that day


it was I think okay maybe because our fault lah pakai apa tuala you know where our that one you know, then we just walk back to the apartment so cold, then the next day we all fall sick fever then cannot go out the whole day wasted right


I don't know lah, when I free I'll go there again lah you know


Gold Coast, ya but I think it will be what a lot of people would want to go lah know everybody can now finally travel


but but then macam there would definitely be still restriction lah you know like beach maximum capacity, like amount of people that can be there you know, (mmhmm)


(mmhmm), have you been there before, (oo)


, (mmhmm)


(mmhmm), oh, okay okay something ah


you know when you're like kay now, you finally in TP right, then there is like you must start studying right you know do you ever like procrastinate when you want to study


(mmhmm), , (mmhmm)


for me ah I also procrastinate lah like you know I prioritize my err playing games over doing work ah my assignments ah, but then again if like apa dia punya deadline is like


very close right then I'll start doing ah, like I would set a timetable, for me to plan out my time ah you know because if, [kan] like if I submit late then the lecturers will penalize me what so I obviously have to start on doing ah


but there are some points where like know procrastination like took over ah then I miss out some of my tutorial I have to submit, you know but I do blame myself for it ah you know, but it's something that I have to you know


tackle ah this issue of procrastination cause like, always ah since secondary school ah, always prioritise my games over the, ah apa our school work ah ya


, !wah!, damn, ya it is hard lah but you know we must lah you know


it's very hard lah then okay like okay, through TP I believe that there are like some modules that involves in like group projects or like


ya group projects like that,


(mmhmm),


!wah!


, , okay, me ah okay I have ah okay recently, like for this semester one [kan] uh I have this uh project called SIP the module name is SIP which is apa eh uh


social innovation project ah uh ya, so like uh we all macam is, I think combined with, uh different types of uh people from different courses ah so like


uh, uh two from DMR then macam two from school of computing and two from school of business then they all mix together, for apa uh, to do a project together so basically this like


what SP is trying to do with this type of module is, for you to get used to working with other people of different backgrounds when in the working industry ah, so SP equips you with this kind of skill lah but let me tell you something ah I do not like working with this kind of people legit I tell you ah


cause like err it's damn Rabak I tell you this this kind of this kind of people they all don't want to do work you know they ask me to like, do for me then they keep complaining complaining you know like !walao! eh why why got so much workload ah ah I don't want do ah like all these kind of stuff you know then expect me to like do everything for them you know


ah, like this, ya


ah then okay okay this one ah it happen like, then got we all got holiday right for us for us to celebrate right


like the day itself right so we were supposed to do like rehearsal ah for our presentation slides, then these guys right, ask me to come at like what in the afternoon you know for me to uh help them with something and present then when I tell them macam I say I cannot ah I like damn busy today I got my


my hari raya hari raya haji I need celebrate ah, then, oh then they say eh why like that we you the only malay just come lah then I say how can like that I holiday what hari raya haji why can come then they start complaining


then I got damn pissed off you know legit, oh my god then I just say I I don't I don't give a shit okay legit I'm I'm not coming then they was like complaining ah keep swearing to me I I don't care you know so and also for


since they are from computing school designs right


or like do some drawing design [kan], they diorang semua they don't want to do the work they expect the guys to do okay and they expect me to do when I come from engineering you know I have no background knowledge of apa different type of drawing you know


ah !alamak! legit I tell you I don't want ah but it's okay lah, ya but overall I think it's a good experience lah, SIP cause in the end after like a few prompts right


for them to like cooperate together we all then managed to work together ah, and also ya it's good lah so for our project it's quite interesting you know our project, we made uh okay you know for our project our aim right


is to help people with depression you know so like apa eh uh we have to come up with an app we decided to come up with an app, to help people with depression integrate back into society


you know, integrate back into society means like okay if usually if what comes to mind when you think of depression people, like they are like very lonely [kan], ah they are like damn lonely right, !alamak! why like this right then so our plan right for our app right is for them to interact


more with macam err people ah online people online ah like strangers you know not in not strangers lah, but like people who also suffer from depression for them to make friends it's like a connection hub you know


for people of them their type, and also for our app, because since like a lot of teens just nowadays use mobile phone right always twenty four seven they always use ah then we decided to come up with something interesting for them lah cause why what what will pull them to download the app right


our, uh our the depression app ah counter, so we decided to put in like some cute cute thing ah like apa the apa the, Pikachu ah Pokemon Go you know or not Pokemon Go concept ya


ya, then our app also ada you have err what ah you have the therapy consultation tab, kay so what's so special about this tab right, uh when kay it's for the user right the the the people with depression right when they use the app [kan] they can uh what ah uh


in a talk to like virtual you know virtual AI controls right so when they talk then they type right say uh how are you today then it'll automatically like reply back with something positive you know, ya, it's it's quite cool lah honestly


and also err, you can also prompt for, uh real life consultants online you know so you want to like one on one uh what uh questions you want counselling one on one can you know through the app s+which is what I find quite cool lah ya


ya and also for our app right uh we also put what ah, uh since like most of us like like to game ah like we, most people like to game like they download apps for what


uh games right, for most people right then, ah our app introduces like some mini short games ah so you got heard of uh what kind of games ah err like Fun Run have you heard of Fun Run, ah Fun Run like the that one, the run what I say


some mini games ah like also we put uh animal crossing ah concept into the games, so there's like a variety of, , games for the user to play with ah which makes our app interesting ah


ya a lot of people ah, , ya so our app


since our app is based on uh like I said the apa eh the macam Pokemon [kan] like the virtual pet right, so we have introduced like, a, a kind of system where


when you log into the app every day, it you you will get like virtual currency or coins ah basically like everyday you log in to the app you get five coins so what what can the coins do so our team decided to macam what I decide to do ah


with the coins right we can use it to feed our virtual pet you know


ah, what ramen or some like cookie eh, for you to feed your virtual pet then every time you feed your virtual pet it becomes more chonky you know, ya it becomes fatter and fatter and also with coins you can unlock like new different type of Pokemon ah which is I think quite cool ah so our ya it's quite interesting then it will drive


more people to download this app so I think it's like something like, people, will look forward to ah ya, forward to ya, so that's about it ah for my SIP module interesting ah


(mmhmm), ya ya, also got one more got one more if I'm not wrong uh, it was not this year it was last year last year's


semester two ah, ya semester two ah, it's called err, CPR ah communicative I can't remember ah what is it but the main purpose of the module right it was to equip us students right to


uh improve our skills you know improve our skills and also improve our interview skills, through this module, so basically got a few skills that they teach ah like one of them is ah time management skill right


so they give us like a timetable a timeline for us to complete different things then he our our lecturer teaches us the importance ah it's like more of educating these kind of skill why is it important in the future, when you go into the working industry you know cause without time management how can you do your job right [kan] do your job properly and efficiently


ya, and also what ah, what's that ah, oh your interview skills ah, for interview, he teach us uh the basic questionnaire ah like how to prep ourselves for interview


err what should we ask during an interview you know how to properly answer an interview, so I think is quite that one ah manageable, ah


ya, so I respect ah SP for doing that, y'know, cause like usually my what when I go for interviews I rarely aku macam uh rarely know what to say ah, like I always stutter you know but like how in the future how are you gonna present yourself like why why would the company want to pick you over other people [kan]


so you have to present yourself better, so which is what this module is teaching ah, how to how to out, outstand ah among the other other interviewees ah, ya , so it's quite good lah since


(mmhmm)


(mmhmm), then okay


I I got a question for you ah, uh, K so for when will you like just join from transition from secondary school to, polytechnic [kan] like how do you like make friends you know like


okay so awkward right like oh I just err what err err go poly how how do you initially make friends, legit ah


(hmm)


(mmhmm), (oo)


(oo), !wah!, easy make friends ah


new exposure ah, me ah when what first year ah, SP ah !wah!, SP the okay for what


when you enter poly you got like orientation right, oh oh okay my one my one was the worst sia legit


!wah! !wah! but my one is the worst eh, first week right okay we do like what get to know each other but I I don't want to know it other people ah like so hard to make friends in SP like all like think highly of themself you know and have their own clique you know I mean like they got know each other from secondary school so I don't know any of them


and my course right the worst thing right is that people of my age right don't have you know like there was only one or two most of them were like two or three years older than me you know, ya that was that was a hard part lah like you wanna make friends with older people which I struggle lah you know


like they came from ITE ah, ah, ya and also oh ya the first week of orientation we did flag day, , no no flag


!wah! cannot make it sia ah I I would okay my flag day they what ah SP put me at where ah at like Bugis ah, it was like in the morning you know when everybody going to like work you know


then they make me stand at the bus stop and err say donation donation donation, oh my goodness, initially my plan was to like okay err do for like ten minutes right let's say do ten minute then actually we're given a timeframe of four hours you know


to do flag day four hours you know I tell you !alamak! Rabak ah four hour cannot make it ah, !huh! eight hour


!oof!, what you in the morning eh,


it's okay lah, (oo), oh


for me we got four hours right to do collection [kan], ten minutes of collecting right I only managed to collect like fifty cents, , ya I only collect fifty cent I give out one sticker then the SP give us the one tin right and


like err the different stickers right we just throw away the stickers already, then we went to LAN ah play game a bit watch movie go eat right, within that four hour frame, and SP once you because after the four hours right


we all have to uh macam go back to SP you know to kasi balik the coins, back to them or like the notes that you have collected right, so we what we did right was we, took, we ah what ah like buy different different things


we take ex- the excess coins we put inside, so my friend brought like one jug of coins you know, so we all just split evenly inside the tin, then we give


at least got money inside ah, , honestly right no ah cause it's damn tiring ah I tell you


ya especially when they put us in like the morning ah, oh then I cannot take it sia, ya


ah it's damn hot then you thirsty then you want to makan right, ah, in the open ah


oh !alamak!, ,


oh okay okay okay lah at least, your school don't have my school orientation ah, SP I don't know what kind of orientation SP have ah,


ya I see other polytechnics their, what ah their orientation look very fun ah, ah they have what ah night party ah, ,


oh ya true lah hopefully like, in the future like, a few months time COVID nineteen stop ah then you all can like, meet up with our friends you know cause I still have online classes cannot go back to school, ya hopefully ah


K K, ya okay lah I think that's all lah, alright man see you soon


I've been doing well lah actually what about you


!wah! actually it was not bad leh like uh at first, uh I thought like I'll have a lot of problems but actually it was quite smooth


oh in Australia belajar macam basics like Mathematics English


Law and Literature so ya very interesting


(oo) my most favorite ah is definitely belajar apa ni Law because it's very interesting lah like I get to learn about you know Australian law and it's uh it's a it's a subject that you know you don't learn


then uh you in what school now


a'ah, oh so uh what course


(oo) that's interesting


, ya I feel I feel you macam susah nak nak part dengan family [kan]


, true, then, eh uh the dalam sekolah you do you do macam any CCA


floorball, ya floorball is fun I last time before I pindah to Australia I was also in a floorball team


ya it's a very interesting sport


(oo) then what type of sport do you prefer then


(hmm), !alamak!, eh


, hopefully lah maybe you can try next year you know never know your kau punya chance [kan],


!wah! I've never heard before eh I thought you only can join like you know your only your faculty punya apa tu punya CCA !wah! I didn't know you can actually do that


, then,


oh sekarang I tengah ambil apa ni interaction design so not a lot of people know about this course because like my school is like the only school yang ada this course, basically kat dalam course ni I do macam coding dengan design it's a very


it's a unique course I would say, a pasal like, coding dengan design macam tak banyak orang tahu buat so, ya and err this course is like it appeals to me lah because I also I really love designing ya and the coding coding element is also like quite interesting so and I


feel like it might help me in the future when I look out for jobs cause now macam banyak benda is like about technology [kan] so ya I feel like this course uh actually benefit me lah in the future


, (oo) so, oh so recently I just uh finish my semester one so some of the courses I sorry I mean modules I picked was


I did was uh design and colour so I do like graphic designs and stuff and I also uh besides coding I also learn uh concept, ideation so macam kita belajar macam mana nak uh brainstorm ideas uh for a project and it helps us in our like design thinking


so uh for you ah you said you were in like marine engineering right so what like what what are the the modules yang kau enjoy


(oo) that's not bad


yeah that's poly life man like most of the time you are just like spending time with your friends doing project work


internship eh


oh


true


oh, !wah!, I can't I can't imagine myself in that situation macam nantiif if I were to be in that situation confirm I I would panic


so susah tak macam kerja like in a like a team, like during that that test, oh right


oh, that's that's interesting I think you will do very well lah, yeah, don't worry I think with all the skills you are equipped with confirm you


then uh uh besides sekolah [kan] like what what do you like to do macam do you have macam other hobby ke or apa apa benda lah


ah


, ya I I know how you feel like during secondary school pastu ada apa O level abeh stress takle fikir yeah


ah anime ya that's my favourite but I haven't really been doing so because takde time [kan] poly dalam I'm in a design course so I don't really have much time to uh do my hobbies which is kind of uh macam sedih but yeah so


now that I'm having my semester break I can finally uh do uh my hobbies


yeah, yep, actually ada banyak plan but like the thing is that I just like I'm just I'm too scared to


go for the trials err because I I'm actually afraid of rejection, but I'll probably you know I just want to like build up confidence in myself first then maybe in uh year two then I will start macam join like start trying out for CCA ah I've actually picked


and then third is dikir barat ya but


I I'm actually having a hard time trying to decide which CCA I wanna join so what do you think


yeah, true


who knows, ya it is it is that's why macam I'm like a bit takut to you know join their team because err macam dorang nya expectations like a bit high you know so I'm I'm I'm afraid like tak boleh meet dorang nya expectations


yes I have like a few months to think about it so ya then so okay we talking about poly and stuff so like today what did you do today


!wah! how was it


but I think right I think confirm boleh pass punya confirm, yeah


oh for what


oh mesti sakit eh


oh,


ah, ,


yeah,


oh


!wow!


ya man I can't imagine myself, !wah! all the best for that for that surgery you you will get through it


it's okay it my my my mum my mum has been through the same thing then dia dia kata like, it's actually not that painful lah because like you know they put you in uh on sleep right so like you won't feel anything like you only feel it like once you bangun so I don't think it's that bad ya so you don't have to worry you know


and anyways it's for the better also so I think ah after if I think it's better to get like the surgery done like as soon as possible because you know you tak nak any macam side effects [kan] so ya


then, uh other than


then right you you said that you had your I mean you're gonna have like a surgery right, so uh how, how how how would you feel like macam you know before you enter the the room like what do you think like macam like your feeling


oh, yeah, uh I've never I've never apa ni had any surgeries before


I, I can't imagine the macam dia nya sakit, eh then oh


eh you go first, , ya


yeah, yeah, ah small business, no no no you you meant ah calligraphy is it


oh yeah yeah , ya ya ya so macam during my free time cause ah


I uh buat calligraphy on orang punya macam notebooks and stuff then I sell it for like quite a reasonable price lah so it's affordable to everyone and I also like playing with colours and


uh I like !aiya! basically like doing calligraphy calligraphy so ya that's why I decided to macam you know buat this business because


cause a lot of people [kan] you know singaporeans [kan] diorang suka macam study [kan] then banyak orang suka buat macam notebook diorang macam cantik cantik so yeah that's why I I thought like why not you know just like


yeah eh, [kan] sekarang COVID [kan] so like uh kat dalam rumah what do you do


(mmhmm), ih, (oo)


!wah! !wah! tell me more


ya ya is good because like you know now COVID like a lot of like businesses are like affected right so I think this online business thing is also macam a good way lah for orang to you know macam get that extra cash


then like after after macam COVID [kan], you where's where's the first place yang you want to travel


yup, list them all


oh, oh


ya ya Gold Coast was very fun the beach was very memorable also, and remember yang kita semua jatuh sakit after we played at the beach


true, ya


yeah hopefully once like macam the border [dah] buka then we can go


ya true true, !wah! for me right, after macam this COVID situation I think the first place I want to travel to is uh mana ni Japan


yes, I've been there bila when I was like I think five years old, I was very young so macam tak ingat uh I don't really remember a lot of things ya so that's why I wanna macam go there again and then macam like immerse in the culture and stuff


is macam quite cheap ah so I was like okay ah then I I think if if cause I like to collect, figurine so I was like you know why not just go japan and then like buy more figurines


yeah, !wah! I tell you I'm biggest procrastinator eh with the biggest of the biggest procrastinator I I like let's say like


the the work is macam due next week [kan] then I would only do it like macam tiga hari before the the due date, ya because I don't know sometimes I'm just too macam penat nak buat buat the assignment so that's why I keep you know pushing back the assignment ya what about you


oh


ya uh me also like most of the time is always like cause I


the homework ya that's like the biggest problem I face since secondary school, it's it's hard to overcome procrastination, yeah


uh it can be done but it's just very hard


oh recently I I ada macam this one err group project like I just finished macam err dua weeks lepas is apa it's called studio project so it's basically like because uh


my course is interaction design [kan] so we do we have to like be in a group and then we have to brainstorm uh ideas together and then come up with like uh a story


so with this story we have to like make it as interesting lah because interaction design is all about user experience how to you know, uh how to attract users so that they they like like our product and stuff


so my group kita buat we did this uh macam is like a E storybook kind of thing and then we drew our own characters and macam the setting all also we we draw ourselves using Photoshop Photoshop is is a very susah app


to pakai because ya it's only my first year and then is also my macam my first time ah pakai then it's like susah ah then like all my other friends macam they are like quite experienced in it because some of them are from ITE ya


so so for the past two weeks we've been trying to make the story macam interesting ah so like when users uh see the story then they can like, interact with the the book by clicking like macam arrows and it will lead them to it will lead them to like the next uh page or something so that's like macam there's an interaction there


ya that's about it, for you eh


why kay you tell me, how Rabak


!wah! I legit also don't like this type of people leh like they really make my blood go up eh like like they already like I mean when we assign them task already right then after that they don't want to do their own work then after that like we we, have to ah take their workload and then after that do their own


work which is like I feel like it's not fair then at the end of the day they they probably will also get the same mark as us and it's like not fair but that's how poly works lah


oh I know what you mean, hanoi


that's good ya, ya


oh, oh that's interesting


ah ya ya


, oh that's good that's good


yeah


oh


ya, I think I think it's a it's a good app ah because in, like this should be you know we should raise, more awareness in our Singaporean society cause like I feel like not many people you know know about these things so it it's a good for me I think your app is very beneficial lah for people yeah


(oo) that's good


ya ya ya very interesting eh, (mmhmm)


, yeah I've heard of Fun Run before I actually played that game


!wah!


that's cool, Animal Crossing is a very in game now eh a lot of people have been playing it I'm also very curious macam banyak orang like semua main ah then I was I'm also like quite interested to know like what's so you know special about this game


!wah!, ya ya ya very interesting


oh, yeah it's good also because like [kan] year three we ada internship right I and I also heard like before you start your internship you have to actually go for an interview for untuk like the company before diorang accept you in


ya


, , ya ya


, I also had like a similar a similar module I did apa ni uh previously


and what are some of the, the like, powerful words I guess you can use during your interview so like to macam macam you like sell yourself so


oh ya


ya, !wah! actually I make friends very instantly eh it's like ya because err okay the good thing about technology is that err


like you you can connect easily with people so like there's this app called Telegram so they had this channel for my school lah so anyone who goes to the school they can just join this channel and then after that they will start talking to one another, and macam it's like quite cool lah because like then you can macam cari orang in the same course as you then after that you can make friends from there like for me err there's this macam ada this uh girl that she came up I mean she texted me then she was like eh I heard you're in the in the same course


then uh she's like uh let's be friends ah then from there uh we started being friends ah then err when during poly because err mostly it was on Zoom right because of macam this COVID situation semua so everything macam is online


ya so it's also good like easier to communicate online, face to face it was actually not bad ya we we we we acted like we we've known each other for macam many years


ya so it was like quite easy lah in terms of like making new friends yeah but I think now the only thing macam susah is that uh is like the modules ah because ya I mean like some of the modules it's like I've never macam done before


or I have no interest in and then ya like for example coding I've never done tak pernah buat coding before so yeah I I get to learn like new things and stuff, ya


you eh what about you, ya, ya from secondary school then to poly


!wah! my one don't have eh cause COVID then no orientation very damn sad leh, I was going to cry you know cause no orientation then you know my school got this like macam party for the for the freshman then don't have cause COVID


oh, !huh! really ah


oh, oh I see I see


oh


, , I I think not bad leh the one that there was one time


I also did flag day it was eight hours it was very hot yes it was eight hours because last time my I had I had this uh program called like NYAA so basically like you have to do like volunteer jobs and then you have to like count in the hours lah then you will get the


it was so hot


then we then kita almost batal lah my then my friend [dah] tak boleh take it [kan] then she was like ah batal [jer] lah, ya


ya we we we we walked around the whole of Tampines ya but it was very very rewarding pasal uh at the end of the day kita dapat banyak donation


ya,


right


!wah!, kay lah not bad you know at least you all macam you know like put money inside lah donate also, ya, but if you were to do macam flag day again would you do it


really ya it is, oh ya ya I've done the morning shift one before it's very very tiring


under the hot sun then collect lor but that spot was the best cause banyak orang lalu sana so ya so we got a lot of donations there then after that we told our other friends then they start coming then after that we were like !alamak! shouldn't have told them


oh maybe in the future maybe they have more fun orientation we don't know


ya ya ya, ya ya my school my school my school got night party but too bad lah this COVID there ah spoil all the plan eh then like legit man then ah spoil then like I can't even like


like meet my friends right regularly in school have to do Zoom Zoom is also very hard you know it's hard to concentrate but the good thing is like can wake up late

ya the prof is indirectly telling them to shut up and sit down lah


err, gets to a point where it's annoying, like every small small thing every small question they also wanna

then after that like , I told them that, we will no longer be exploring this option right so I said I just I just thanked them and said like, yeah err we will not be going ahead with this anymore and thank you for the information you provided


then they like, took very long to reply me on okay not really lah but, how to say cause on saturday right, I received an email from them then they said that, even though, err, you already said you don't want to consider this but can you at least read our reply cause we put into much err we put a lot of details into the reply lah then I was thinking


you took three weeks to reply my previous email then you expect me to read it even though <mandarin>我已经讲我不要看了:wo yi jing jiang wo bu yao kan le</mandarin> right as in like <mandarin>我我已经要:wo wo yi jing yao</mandarin> err move on to another project, err another option is like


I am not obligated to read or reply you know what I mean, , precisely and like this person right couldn't even get my name right eh even after like I think we exchange about six emails back and forth


wait then what did you do the past week


, (uh huh), , then in the library did you manage to fish


yeah, wait then you were gonna tell me about something else also, what was it ah, err last week you told me one


oh about the how, like you must on camera, for all your classes, (mmhmm)


!aiya!, precisely they never really think from other people's point of view like, I mean, maybe attendance is an issue that like they are trying to resolve cause if you on cam you cannot run away you cannot Siam what right


but, ya lor it's really very inconvenient for the malay the muslims and all,


, precisely, later, (mmhmm), (mmhmm), actually


, like I I feel like I will need to draw my eyebrows or some thing sia


(uh huh), , , later I also have to on the camera sia I don't really want


it's like, !huh!, err, oh you know her period is finally over, like <mandarin>好像几个星期了:hao xiang ji ge xing qi le</mandarin> like, it's damn long leh then her period also so smelly


but, I I don't know she's, still cute as usual, she oh, we use to give her like panties with, then


ya then we will clip like at the back so that it won't fall off but, after awhile it got very cause <mandarin>他要大便小便:ta yao da bian xiao bian</mandarin> also right so, we have to like keep taking out taking it off for her and putting it back which is also like a bit <mandarin>麻烦:ma fan</mandarin> when we are very busy lah if not she will just like <mandarin>小便在他的:xiao bian zai ta de</mandarin> panty <mandarin>里面:li mian</mandarin> which is very uh what the hell


ya we should have like what's that called, what ah what's it called ah, sterilise her when she was younger, I don't know leh we I think we never

when you have to what, (uh huh)


, actually ten years is quite fast leh, (mmhmm)


well you can, but you will take time, you never know man, no I thought you wanted to be like a <mandarin>女强人:nv qiang ren</mandarin> a independent woman


but I mean, , no that's not true, eh but have you bought insurance like all those health insurance


oh legit, oh cause like I just bought only recently I bought like, okay my mum's helping me pay for now lah but once I start working I also have to pay, like the life one


I haven't buy the critical one I think the critical one <mandarin>我做工的时候才买:wo zuo gong de shi hou cai mai</mandarin> if not it's like legit damn, like financially, burdened I don't know what's the word for it, err


then if I add on the life one, total is about three hundred plus ah per month


how come how, yours is under which company, oh !chey! what, so then, [orh]


I have decided not to take, so I need to find a part time job man when when okay the school start already lah but like maybe next week or something I'll be more actively, in search of a job


ya but the hours are really very odd leh like, then, I end around five, it's like <mandarin>不三不四:bu san bu si</mandarin> lor, ya so


ya so some of the days like my lesson end at eight PM, then I want to go out for dinner is like so late already


whatever lah but I guess it will be a good experience lor seems like the modules are quite, interesting is like the more interesting ones compared to like my year one year two modules, yeah


the foresight is legit sia, oh yeah cause if buy when you were born the premium is definitely much cheaper, yeah


ha, , wait as in, you don't have to pay anything at all, like, how does it work


but when you start working leh, , more things to pay for this is like adulting for reals man


(mmhmm), will you move like to a single, like a house with just one room, or like as in like will you rent a room or will you like rent a studio


(mmhmm), , actually my friend also leh he like, he will like know how do the housework or the chores and like, all the random stuff


which is like which I think is very sweet, pretty nice lor, , girls also I don't know how to do sia okay I'm not say don't know how but I just very <mandarin>烂:lan</mandarin> at housework lah


can excuse me don't expose , , well I've cleared most of them, like, all my old clothes are in a, bag, and I'm trying to like get rid of them but


it's not successful, err not really <mandarin>我要省钱:wo yao sheng qian</mandarin> Liao, , but ya lor it's like


example I mean for example if we actually rent or like buy a house in future then have to pay so many things cannot sia so I'm really start saving


(uh huh), oh yeah anyway have you applied for like full time job, [orh] when you planning to apply


(mmhmm), but !wah! <mandarin>明年:ming nian</mandarin> legit like quite hard to find a job man, cause like some of my friends like or ben's friends right they graduated already then


for traineeships and it actually pay quite well, like for like for fresh grad lah, which I was like quite interesting quite impressive


but do you have any idea like <mandarin>你要做什么:ni yao zuo shen me</mandarin> or like where you want to work


(mmhmm), eh but L'oreal I think they are opening up for internships, but I don't know when's the deadline


you can apply over the weekend after you get some rest
