(mmhmm), right, eh I want to ask you about mental health also, like do you see the Facebook post the delay Lim that one


!huh! really ah okay nevermind because okay anyway, that, okay okay okay so actually even if you don't see that you will <mandarin>大概知道:da gai zhi dao</mandarin> what is going on in this world if you will follow you follow the stay work salary man what


bruise


oh is self care oh a little bit is mental health I don't know eh like which part is the boundary


ya lah, (mmhmm) ya


I mean ya lah they also say you need to prevent the build up so before <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> explode right <mandarin>你要:ni yao</mandarin> like <mandarin>开始:kai shi</mandarin> distress so like <mandarin>他不是讲有:ta bu shi jiang you</mandarin> like bottle lor, then suddenly you explode


so they say before you explode you need to like, like have an outlet for your bottle to drain off the water so even if it goes by along the week right it won't build up, it will still flow out, so I think that's why I say, is a blur line ah between like self care


and, being a strawberry, I don't know eh but because, when I, okay I I didn't go around telling people I wanted to resign but if just nice <mandarin>谈到这个话题:tan dao zhe ge hua ti</mandarin> right I will


just say lah, then some, ya, oh oh, !huh! no my colleague and I plan to leave together one eh as in not together together but one month after each other because


ya so, if I don't talk to her I really will go crazy because, she's the other pillar I see everyday you know of my, she sent her letter also already


october is her last month, tell you that place not very healthy already because, because you, ya, ya we, !huh!, you think we care we also upset, you care or not


you don't care you know the exit okay don't don't talk about exit interviewer !wah! <mandarin>讲到那个就:jiang dao na ge jiu</mandarin> okay never mind so like, ya actually, I told my best friend ah my NAFA best friend, that I ya ya I going to quit, then then I didn't I didn't want to explain too much because like


tip of the the whole iceberg <mandarin>要拿出来这样:yao na chu lai zhe yang</mandarin> you know, so I just tell her then she's like !huh! why you strawberry !wah! I fuck, I very hurt at the comment eh then I'm like oh because I don't tell you the context that's why I sound like a strawberry ah and then she's like ya you need to tell me context then I oh okay lor then I tell her I really depressed I cry at least once a week in during


during august ah because I sent my letter thirty first what, like legit last time I only cry when I work the night PM shift until nine PM, then recent recently I mean it during august ah !wah! I cry after work lah not at work err when I end work at six thirty the earlier shift eh then I'm like <mandarin>为什么我这样:wei shen me wo zhe yang</mandarin> sia


like I, and my working environment ah, then I just, then I realise it's another thing is also because I don't have time to distress properly at home


you know like <mandarin>我我的:wo wo de</mandarin> rest off days hor, health


because my physical body was never actually tired okay I'm only tired on the nine PM shift but, but my mental health is like, the <mandarin>我睡觉之前:wo shui jiao zhi qian</mandarin> I think about work

high SES hor


ya I like the salad ah the salad, err it's a bit expensive but, I I I like to buy without the <mandarin>菜:cai</mandarin> you know, cause the the duck the smoked duck very nice

ah I see okay thank you thank you, cause hor I I went to NIE a few times right but I always cannot find, like my my my location one ah that time I want to go to the, the art room right I also walk damn long eh but on the way there I also never see any canteen that's why I a bit confused ah cause I err


very big <mandarin>路痴:lu chi</mandarin> you know


ya I agree I will do that I think, speaking of getting lost ah, I I always get lost eh in the school although I already in year two, you know, actually right got one incident hor, I I went to


where I got one class at south spine right then I went ten minutes early because I heard is very close to the bus stop so is just, can get there very fast one but then, I ended up hor forty minutes late leh, you know how


because hor I I really walk round and round and round and round, cause the the south spine the structure ah I heard is like is like a hand because it has your main trunk right and then you have separate fingers so if you are at the wrong finger right you cannot cross over to the other finger


like just like that you have to go downstairs and then go back up from the other side and because of that hor I really always I always very lost leh I don't know which lift am I supposed to see or what hor, then that one time that one time right I was at the wrong side of the building (oo) like throughout and I didn't even know I just keep walking up and down and up and down then I was so lost right until I really Bo Pian leh I I have to go and SOS hor my brother then I take photo right I thought the photo don't look like anything it's just a white building but he know eh I facing the wrong side so he ask me to turn around go terbalik side you know


!wah! I I really , !wah! if if hor he never tell me right I think I no need go to class already lah


I see I see maybe is just cause I really very Gong Gong lah I blur sotong lah so that's why I don't know, and then right I need I need to also hor tell you, for the same lesson the following week right


I get lost again you know cause, cause I don't remember the, the route to go on the first time because I walk round and round for forty minutes then on the second week right I can't remember which one is the correct one so I walk the same wrong route and round and round again but this time I was alone the first time I was with a friend at least but this time I was alone right so I really nobody to help me you know but in the end when I found my way to class right the teacher look at me very disapprovingly hor !wah! I feel damn Paiseh leh even the whole class also look at me but


but never mind lah I think by the third time right err I made it on time lah I made it on time they say the third time's the charm right


ya I agree I agree lah okay lor I think just need to explore the the school a bit more like dora the explorer like that you know like walk around and see where is where then I can remember better


then, I see I see then what shows you watch ah when when your during your time


a'ah I see I see, eh I also I my time hor I watched handy manny eh do you know that show, err <mandarin>很像不是:hen xiang bu shi</mandarin> ah but then <mandarin>他是:ta shi</mandarin> about about like <mandarin>一个一个:yi ge yi ge</mandarin> handyman <mandarin>这样:zhe yang</mandarin> then then <mandarin>他有很多:ta you hen duo</mandarin> tools <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> tools <mandarin>会讲话的:hui jiang hua de</mandarin> lor then very cute one lah the the tools they will count themselves one like roll call like that then they will count in err I think I think is err spanish if I not wrong ah


they will say err the one to three lor in spanish but, ya I don't know lah but I think very cute


what, but I also I also err got watch mister bean lah that one is my generation one


oh <mandarin>他也是那个:ta ye shi na ge</mandarin> director <mandarin>是不是:shi bu shi</mandarin> ah, ah I see I see but I think the live action one right


probably appeal to the, older audience maybe like like, primary school children or secondary school children but when I was very young ah I like in kindergarten right I I prefer the, the cartoon one lah the cartoon one cause cause I like the


the the #ah ma# you know the #ah ma# the neighbour I think


ah ya I remember I remember <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> episode <mandarin>我最喜欢的:wo zui xi huan de</mandarin> hor <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> he try to dye the the cat, or is it oh he got the wrong cat then hor he he put the, he put the


the paper on the cat then he spray paint is it or he paint he paint the cat to make the same prints as the original cat but then, where he the the #ah ma# wash the cat then the dye come out right then !wah! he he Kena caught already lor


!wah! !wah! that one that one I don't really remember that clearly lah cause I I mainly watched the cartoon one but that one ya it does ring a bell


err, !wah! <mandarin>我好像没什么看戏:wo hao xiang mei shen me kan xi</mandarin> leh <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin> oh <mandarin>我有看那个:wo you kan na ge</mandarin> ben ten ben ten


ah, oh but I I don't really remember much lah I remember he got like


ten is it ten ten different err err personas he can take on he just press the watch then he the he will transform into that one then he can go and err save the world or something right is it


!wah! I really I really don't remember eh I think I don't I never watch that many so it doesn't really stick in my in my brain ah


eh that's bad hor that's very bad hor !wah! then your eyesight must be very bad right


eh !wah! <mandarin>你这样:ni zhe yang</mandarin> lucky <mandarin>的因为:de yin wei</mandarin> hor <mandarin>我我从五岁就开始戴:wo wo cong wu sui jiu kai shi dai</mandarin> eh but I also I also don't know why leh I don't watch as much TV as you leh I think but, I've been wearing since five lor so now !wah! I really wear for like fifteen years already


!aiyo! !aiyo! is okay lah, speaking of colour blind hor I have a friend in my course hor who is who is err colour-blind also lah then got one time right, err there's this girl who brought a pet bird to lecture like she really just carry the bird on her shoulder and she walked into class like that


then, err we have a group chat mah then we share a photo of that cause it was a very funny story then we just want to share with each other, but right, err the person who took the photo right it's like sitting quite far away hor so you need to zoom in a bit the picture not very clear


then, this guy ah who is colour-blind he say, err and I quote ah, err, err don't know whether is it I colour-blind or what but I cannot see the bird, so, my friend right, she err you know she <mandarin>好心:hao xin</mandarin> lah she just want to help then she say


ah there is a white bird sitting on the, girl with a yellow shirt, do you think it helped


oh I I think ya could be could be right <mandarin>很像是可是可是:hen xiang shi ke shi ke shi</mandarin> the funny thing is <mandarin>他那个:ta na ge</mandarin> girl hor <mandarin>就跟他讲:jiu gen ta jiang</mandarin> oh there's a white bird on the yellow shirt right but the thing is he cannot really tell the the colour apart the yellow colour and the white colour so so the


yellow adjectives right did nothing for him in to help him so in the end he still cannot see lah I think that's just the the funny part about it lor but ya I agree is a bit a bit sad lah if you, really have trouble seeing the colours


ya ya I think I hope like more people will be more sensitive about this and not, like err make make light of the situation lor because, ya you live with this err this, this what ah this colour blindness for all your life also so you so Sian already right


err


err I don't know leh but I feel like I feel like my family always do that to me eh cause I I quite severely tone deaf ah then, I really cannot remember the note of the song even if I hear the song many times before, then then


don't know why hor my my family hor keep wanting me to sing leh although I sing so bad leh oh my god, !wah!


no lah I I just I just think is quite funny also lah but if they really want me to sing then I sing for them lor I can sing for them err like all my life also they just don't don't disown can already lah


!wah! you very bad hor you very bad, !wah!


, oh I love K pop leh I love K pop !wah!


I I my favourite group hor is the, stray kids do you know stray kids, !hey! you don't be so bad hor I tell you this one is my favourite my favourite err boy band [okay]


so, so hor they are from these are company are called, err JYP entertainment the boss of this err company hor is also a singer himself I think he's very talented that's why he can produce err, err err very successful group like that lah like stray kids like that


so stray kids hor this group right, !wah! I tell you hor the members are so handsome leh and they all sing and rap and dance so good so good !wah! you you have to go and see man you have to go and see


then <mandarin>你喜欢看什么:ni xi huan kan shen me</mandarin> leh, let me think ah, I think oh JYP also got err girl groups ah maybe maybe you have heard of them the


got itzy, !aiyo! how can you say that itzy is spelt err I T Z Y I think


!wah! I think they also not very not bad you know not bad the err what's that ah the leader is it her name is Yeji ah, and, she she sing very very good you know and hor


the she also I think she's one of the best dancer lah so !wah! really really the the best of the group I think


ya ya their MV right quite popular one you search it will come out already, okay okay eh what about twice ah twice you know them


ya ya they are I think


[orh] okay okay !wah! I can say <mandarin>你真的很喜欢:ni zhen de hen xi huan</mandarin> twice hor


[orh]


I I understand I understand, err but although I say I understand right the group that I like hor they not not just performer performing good hor but <mandarin>他们唱歌也是:ta men chang ge ye shi</mandarin> err <mandarin>很厉害的:hen li hai de</mandarin> lah <mandarin>但是:dan shi</mandarin> but <mandarin>我也是明白我可以明白:wo ye shi ming bai wo ke yi ming bai</mandarin> twice <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> fans


eh <mandarin>不用不用:bu yong bu yong</mandarin> then <mandarin>那你这样讲的话:na ni zhe yang jiang de hua</mandarin> hor then, err who's your favourite err like , singer like


ah, okay okay <mandarin>我我有时间我一定会去去:wo wo you shi jian wo yi ding hui qu qu</mandarin> check it out lah


eh I also I also you know hor, actually <mandarin>我没有什么跟这种:wo mei you shen me gen zhe zhong</mandarin> mandopop <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> lah but then, err <mandarin>有就是有一次:you jiu shi you yi ci</mandarin> hor <mandarin>我不懂在做么:wo bu dong zai zuo me</mandarin> lah <mandarin>但是:dan shi</mandarin> err my brother hor he need to go overseas but he really wanted to buy err the the this <mandarin>萧敬腾:xiao jing teng</mandarin> album right so he he made me and my mum hor go to the the fan sign you know to go and buy the album then so we can get his the signature


then because of that right I shake hands with <mandarin>萧敬腾:xiao jing teng</mandarin> leh !wah! really I think it's all the fans the dream come true leh, then hor since then right I also I also like already lor but I don't know, I don't know why lah maybe it's cause of the the magical touch cause I shake his hand


then I also go and see all his concert then we buy his merchandise then I use the a notebook right with his face printed on it then I remember my my primary four teacher right she asked me oh who is this that I just say oh <mandarin>萧敬腾:xiao jing teng</mandarin> !wah! I don't think she expected a ten year old child to idolise <mandarin>一个一个:yi ge yi ge</mandarin> err <mandarin>歌手:ge shou</mandarin> also lah but I think !wah!


it was a fun times fun times, ya


ya I agree I agree it was a memory that I I will never forget lah because err even the singer himself is a very shocked because, all his fans hor, err <mandarin>不是不是小妹妹那种:bu shi bu shi xiao mei mei na zhong</mandarin> leh <mandarin>是那种:shi na zhong</mandarin> <mandarin>二十多岁的那种:er shi duo sui de na zhong</mandarin> err


girls lah then <mandarin>突然间他他:tu ran jian ta ta</mandarin> look up hor <mandarin>有一个十岁的小孩子在他前面:you yi ge shi sui de xiao hai zi zai ta qian mian</mandarin> !wah! I think it was shocking for for both parties lah


ya I agree I agree


, let me think ah, oh yes I listen to like bands also not not just err K pop K pop err typical K pop idol dance group


I like the, err day six have you heard of them, no is a bit different because err this one right is a


band that actually plays err instruments and they value the their music and their, err song productions more than the performance itself and I think because of that hor they they are not that popular lah cause err they don't dance they cannot dance actually and they are not exactly that handsome that good looking and well packaged like the


the <mandarin>偶像偶像:ou xiang ou xiang</mandarin> kind you know, but ya I really like their music their music is very, pop rock I would say, and the, the so I went to their concert once and !wah! I can never forget that experience leh their their live vocals are really out of this world ah but I think also partly cause they don't dance so they don't run out of breath that easily lah but you have to consider the fact hor they they play their instruments live and they sing also so


ya really really very very well done lah very well done


!wah! <mandarin>你问我这个有点难:ni wen wo zhe ge you dian nan</mandarin> leh <mandarin>我看:wo kan</mandarin> hor , FT island <mandarin>跟:gen</mandarin> CN blue <mandarin>这种很:zhe zhong hen</mandarin> similar to each other in the sense that, that


it's a, I think it's a whole new genre lah it's a whole new genre I think they use instruments like <mandarin>那种:na zhong</mandarin> synthesiser ah


to infuse inside so is more like, a fusion lor <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin> more than the, the classic the classic err, drums and guitar sound


actually I I don't really know music that well lah I I can only appreciate their their vocals more


ya I agree, but day six they also , create their own songs they produce their own song and the my favourite member right, is the is the, bassist lah, but he write all their songs the lyrics and he also write lyrics for other people and he sell them sell to them lah


and I think is very great because, he's a very err poetic person leh like the he the things he write about is very , err very deep he use lot analogies and


oh !wah! I I understand I understand, eh but, err do you not take err korean mod in school, so I think maybe you know some korean right


just take lessons like this kind from school


!wah!, I see I see but that's a lot of investment right you have to !wah! spend so much money then then a lot of time and effort, but you still err you still like not that great lah you to you need to take a while to learn


!wah!


ah I understand I understand same lah same same here also I


very very frustrating lor so I think !wah! <mandarin>如果:ru guo</mandarin> I can understand korean <mandarin>的话:de hua</mandarin> like completely as a native speaker hor that will be great lah I think


err I remember <mandarin>她讲讲这句话:ta jiang jiang zhe ju hua</mandarin> lah, but hor after just one year right she also err got obsessed leh with the K pop, I think it's just the the charms lor <mandarin>就是他们有这个魅力:jiu shi ta men you zhe ge mei li</mandarin> lah so


err you will want to overcome the language barrier depend on the subtitles all these to appreciate their content lor


!wah! <mandarin>很快她很快就变心的:hen kuai ta hen kuai jiu bian xin de</mandarin> but ah natural lah natural <mandarin>女人都是这样的:nv ren dou shi zhe yang de</mandarin> lah <mandarin>只要有一个更更年轻更帅更会唱歌跳舞的的偶像:zhi yao you yi ge geng geng nian qing geng shuai geng hui chang ge tiao wu de de ou xiang</mandarin> come by <mandarin>的话:de hua</mandarin> hor !wah! my heart will just be snatched


!wah! I completely agree but I still I still like them lah after ten years,


then do you think you will continue to like twice or like err five years down the road


ya <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> lor <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> lor <mandarin>觉得我也是:jue de wo ye shi</mandarin> agree lah <mandarin>但是:dan shi</mandarin> I, I very scared you know for that day to come cause


ah


oh oh, err I think, not, I think maybe sometime but hor, to be honest ah I feel like I draw to fish for compliments only, because, sometimes when I draw right <mandarin>我也是觉得很有很多压力你懂:wo ye shi jue de hen you hen duo ya li ni dong</mandarin> mah <mandarin>但是:dan shi</mandarin> when <mandarin>我画完了:wo hua wan le</mandarin> hor then <mandarin>人家夸我的话我就:ren jia kua wo de hua wo jiu</mandarin> err Shiok Liao Shiok Liao <mandarin>我就:wo jiu</mandarin> okay lor maybe this is what I'm good at but


I'll be honest ah it doesn't really bring me that much, joy lah until I will say this is my real hobby, err right now currently my hobby <mandarin>还是是追星:hai shi shi zhui xing</mandarin> lah <mandarin>但是可能我大了一点比较:dan shi ke neng wo da le yi dian bi jiao</mandarin> mature <mandarin>了:le</mandarin> I will


I will shift towards something that is more, mentally rewarding I say like that I can, err feel more, satisfaction and, err fulfilment lor, but I I wonder what that would be lah <mandarin>我现在我还是不懂:wo xian zai wo hai shi bu dong</mandarin> lah


uh, it's more about like the the consumers' behaviour and how the marketers market their products right to appeal to the the the crazy fans like us right


eh I agree I agree but, err, another way to look at it hor is like a curse right it's like a curse cause <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> just <mandarin>一直买一直买不停这样的话:yi zhi mai yi zhi mai bu ting zhe yang de hua</mandarin> then <mandarin>你花很多很多钱因为他们花这样多心思:ni hua hen duo hen duo qian yin wei ta men hua zhe yang duo xin si</mandarin> to create <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> product then


then <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> Bo Pian you know you feel the the obligation to keep buying and buying, when, in the end right is is just is just a CD you know


is okay right, ya I think it's okay lah like <mandarin>你久久买一次但是:ni jiu jiu mai yi ci dan shi</mandarin> hor <mandarin>我哥哥:wo ge ge</mandarin> hor <mandarin>他一个月里面:ta yi ge yue li mian</mandarin> hor <mandarin>可以买两三张的:ke yi mai liang san zhang de</mandarin> leh <mandarin>因为因为有:yin wei yin wei you</mandarin> like


[ah] I get I get okay, [oh] that's why [lah] okay maybe I shouldn't like assume [lor], okay <mandarin>再见再见:zai jian zai jian</mandarin> [ah]


hello, err <mandarin>还好:hai hao</mandarin> lah nowadays don't need to go school every day but err still got a lot of lesson


err online lah but a bit I will just, just <mandarin>看着办:kan zhe ban</mandarin> lor, ah, cause now to counter the COVID lah then they all scared then want to make online so that we won't come into contact with each other so not as dangerous then I just ah okay lah then I just at home lor most of the time then Zuo Bo


ya, like


err that one only in the evening then after that I eat dinner with my friend then I come back and just <mandarin>睡觉:shui jiao</mandarin> lor, uh is okay lah <mandarin>还好啊:hai hao a</mandarin> but thursday then I I need to go earlier then it's the whole day


nowadays cannot run marathon cause cancelled no large events more than a hundred people


then


then <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> just <mandarin>来跑步:lai pao bu</mandarin> then just go home just run your friend then just go home that's all


don't have you just turn up and if you want to run if not you too busy then you can you can don't come also can


ya that's why I join mah like nowadays just free then just go run don't need don't need to


so what about your school what do you do


[orh] I see then your friends one got got any friend take with you or not


[orh] is is like ah Bo Pian one sometimes you just need to, try to if you cannot understand need to go online and search is you can't expect the tutor to know everything lah is you know <mandarin>有些事你自己你要你要拿好成绩就要自己做出出一份力不然不然你你是很难拿拿到好成绩的:you xie shi ni zi ji ni yao ni yao na hao cheng ji jiu yao zi ji zuo chu chu yi fen li bu ran bu ran ni ni shi hen nan na na dao hao cheng ji de</mandarin> lah


ya is truth err then other than your friends usually you at home ah like


[orh] okay I think stay lah I also same, other than the two days I still got monday got lesson tuesday also got lecture need to go, but, ya but I but I but I take all the class with my friends so we know each other still can help a bit


like if you don't understand can ask


okay okay, err then usually eat at home or eat in school


same eh my dinner also wait for my mother I don't know I think our mother quite good leh like she will just Dabao after work <mandarin>她她很好:ta ta hen hao</mandarin> right err I just Dabao #cai fan# usually


but sometimes as but then sometimes she always get the ingredient like, like she doesn't buy the ingredient I want but I still eat lah cause I good boy


err but it's but it's just on the way mah it's not really is not like I <mandarin>我真的懒得去:wo zhen de lan de qu</mandarin> is just <mandarin>比较方便她:bi jiao fang bian ta</mandarin> just <mandarin>买:mai</mandarin> lor then <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> just <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> just accept that it's been like that for very long already so <mandarin>她:ta</mandarin> okay <mandarin>我也:wo ye</mandarin> okay


for now I think, actually cause I've been in school like <mandarin>四年:si nian</mandarin> Liao but a lot of restaurant change and all the canteen change also some of the vendor like <mandarin>他们全部换:ta men quan bu huan</mandarin> the like the <mandarin>鸡饭:ji fan</mandarin> also changed a few times and the but the taste still around the same lah I would say like maybe I think maybe <mandarin>麻辣麻辣:ma la ma la</mandarin> in all the canteens are generally quite quite okay


and the western is not bad also like in general but, err so I would recommend maybe the pasta


but I think like after four years I I just very used to everything so, I not I not very <mandarin>在意:zai yi</mandarin> the <mandarin>那个那个:na ge na ge</mandarin> taste lah


I don't usually eat <mandarin>经济米粉:jing ji mi fen</mandarin> cause I don't like, like I just don't like economical #bee hoon# lah I will <mandarin>我是通常是选那个比较贵的那个日本餐:wo shi tong chang shi xuan na ge bi jiao gui de na ge ri ben can</mandarin> or the <mandarin>那个西餐那个:na ge xi can na ge</mandarin> western, ya cause


you know like <mandarin>一个礼拜两三次:yi ge li bai liang san ci</mandarin> is to me it's it's still okay


I think so ya but I think also got some new store, then <mandarin>不懂它们卖什么:bu dong ta men mai shen me</mandarin> like I think <mandarin>是面:shi mian</mandarin> ah I saw like one time when I ate there recently


but I think <mandarin>那个那个:na ge na ge</mandarin> salad still there


[orh] the but the salad err I don't know lah I just always got long queue then I lazy queue for salad so I just go for japanese japanese usually <mandarin>它那个排队它排蛮快的所以:ta na ge pai dui ta pai man kuai de suo yi</mandarin> will just eat japanese but err I think


probably <mandarin>菜饭:cai fan</mandarin> also very fast, err although queue long but they move very fast


NIE err you from north spine you just walk, err cross the bridge like


when going to the bus stop for one seven nine there but instead of going down <mandarin>你你不要下去你:ni ni bu yao xia qu ni</mandarin> just <mandarin>过对面过对面过那个桥:guo dui mian guo dui mian guo na ge qiao</mandarin> then walk all the way down walk straight


you just, I think you just follow the route then you, I think there's a sign there lah at the bottom of the staircase then will just err lead you to the canteen which should be quite easy to find lah I went there like I think two times ah


but I know I didn't get lost ah so it should be quite manageable


oh then maybe you should ask like I don't know you got any friends is going to become <mandarin>老师:lao shi</mandarin> like in the future like those NIE student then maybe you ask them you can be they will can bring you there lah


since <mandarin>你们都是朋友:ni men dou shi peng you</mandarin> Liao


don't know


err


I think he know cause he's been in school very long then some of the places like


I think once you are there you just roughly know how to walk lah cause there is only like, there's a, err a set number of like levels that you can cross over to the other side so like, is like only B three or B two you can cross like if you are in B four you need to go up or down to another level before you crossover so


like once once you know what's the link way you can, easily cross on one section to another lah then also like cause maybe he been there for like many years so like it's more or less the same thing I go to class all the same route then he one look can tell that you are oh you are in the wrong building so it's very easy for him to point that out so it's not really a surprise lah


ya I think I think so too lah yes


ya actually some of my junior also like always get lost but


and like it's not that serious ah so I'll just, at least now you know the way ah so it's not that bad


I don't know like what generation you grow up in lah but the dora the explorer is quite old one lah actually you you must be older than I thought lah cause I think even in my time like I don't really watch dora the explorer anymore I think err yes so it's quite interesting uh like dora the explorer is quite I think


maybe I should watch is some time lah it's quite ancient to me , I err mainly watch like nickelodeon ah


spongebob ah spongebob I think that is more, close to the late nineteen nineties ah, like two thousand I think that's around my time


I think I have I have heard of it it's err it's quite interesting ah like the the graphics is three D right


(oo)


oh is educational lah is for kids of course it will be made cute lah but, yup I think I more prefer like those spongebob kind those, those two D one and I think it allows for more like <mandarin>比较比较夸张的那种:bi jiao bi jiao kua zhang de na zhong</mandarin> action which is I think funnier lah I think three D also quite expensive to make actually like for those companies to invest in that software then I think their their storyboard the the plot line also cannot be too crazy ah but it's okay ah since it's a kids' show I think handy manny is more for educational


but spongebob spongebob is like


eh same ah same, I also watch mister bean err I think I prefer live action, live action than the animated cause live action I think he's he's <mandarin>他的表情比较好笑:ta de biao qing bi jiao hao xiao</mandarin> then then the animated like, a few the proportion a bit weird lah it's just not


just looks weird to me I know is a cartoon lah but when you have the <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> the live action one to compare to I just feel like you should just watch the live action


I think he got some say lah but the main guy isn't him like, he mostly just acts ah but I think he got do some part in the screenplay also


actually the #ah ma# is err his I think his caretaker or something or because they live together is not a neighbour but he always try to like annoy <mandarin>那个他的:na ge ta de</mandarin> #ah ma# and err


I think


is, err is still okay lah but


oh I think I remember ben ten ben ten is like more of my secondary school one like that time


ya err cause err back then I really watch a lot of television cause <mandarin>还没有那个:hai mei you na ge</mandarin> smartphone <mandarin>还没有电脑:hai mei you dian nao</mandarin> so every time I come back home I just watch TV then


then <mandarin>就是记得很多东西:jiu shi ji de hen duo dong xi</mandarin> like, most of time I spend is like is in front of the television like I've I think it's more than six hours or seven eight hours if I'm not eating or or doing homework I'm just watching TV


err, well actually actually I don't really need glasses for now but, I I would say like if I didn't watch so many so much television back then maybe


my eyesight could've been even better than now ah <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin> lah but


err cause I'm not blue yellow colour-blind or or I'm red green lah so I don't think yellow is a problem for me I think his problem is like, cause there are so many colours in that same picture it kind of confuses him a bit that he cannot really identify the bird or maybe it just wasn't very clear to him not might not


ya but is okay lah <mandarin>我们都习惯:wo men dou xi guan</mandarin> Liao err it's not really a big problem but it's just that sometimes when <mandarin>你问我这个什么颜色:ni wen wo zhe ge shen me yan se</mandarin> like it's like I just don't really want to answer you ah because it's not a thing I care about and I think you can tell me a coloured instead of just asking me like I'm not providing any new information to you so you might as well stop trying to annoy me lah I would say


ya is like when you are tone deaf people don't ask you to sing right, it's like when you cannot really reproduce the sounds like I don't keep asking you eh so so is this note like the same, is he singing on key or is she singing on key or like in a different octave or whatever I don't like ask people that so


oh maybe cause they heard you sing one time and you sounded like very passionate about it ah then <mandarin>可能他他不想:ke neng ta ta bu xiang</mandarin> like err <mandarin>毁掉你的你的梦想所以他让你给你机会表现:hui diao ni de ni de meng xiang suo yi ta rang ni gei ni ji hui biao xian</mandarin> mah <mandarin>你不要怪他们:ni bu yao guai ta men</mandarin> lah


I think you <mandarin>你很夸张:ni hen kua zhang</mandarin> leh I don't really disown you lah at most only put on YouTube only mah, no lah very I just I just my honest feeling I really will put on YouTube I'm just trying to publicise you make you into successful career mah <mandarin>你不要这样想:ni bu yao zhe yang xiang</mandarin> don't always take the bad things lah don't always see things from a bad perspective you must <mandarin>往好的方面去想:wang hao de fang mian qu xiang</mandarin> mah <mandarin>你整天讲人家想害你当然会觉得这样:ni zheng tian jiang ren jia xiang hai ni dang ran hui jue de zhe yang</mandarin> mah but <mandarin>你往好的方面想你觉得:ni wang hao de fang mian xiang ni jue de</mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>我很好帮你帮你弄红:wo hen hao bang ni bang ni nong hong</mandarin> leh like make you viral make you popular isn't that that a good thing


<mandarin>如果那是你梦想我:ru guo na shi ni meng xiang wo</mandarin> I wouldn't stop you lah like if that what makes you happy and also like you see nowadays all the


all the <mandarin>明星:ming xing</mandarin> like especially those from korea like I don't know lah if you have any idols you want to talk about like maybe are they from korea or or what


ah


really ah but I not very interested in the guy groups leh like even though they may be very good looking but in the end of the day I just think they are uh you just good lor like you are good lah I just, I just don't have any like really any inclination to go and watch more of their videos like <mandarin>我没有没有很想看他们:wo mei you mei you hen xiang kan ta men</mandarin> lah


I don't know like maybe are there any other groups


itzy ah what what is that like incy wincy spider or <mandarin>什么来得:shen me lai de</mandarin>


(hmm) maybe I if I got time <mandarin>我可能会去看一下:wo ke neng hui qu kan yi xia</mandarin> lah <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> YouTube right like should be quite easy to find right


[orh] okay maybe maybe I'll give it a shot lah if I have time, ya go and see what what is itzy is about


oh twice ah I think I've already heard heard of them uh are they from JYP also oh yes yes [orh] then then I think is the ya then I think I know JYP cause I know twice is from JYP and they're actually they are the only group that I care about lah from JYP so so how I got into twice is err from their songs like at first I didn't really liked them like


cheer up and TT like I thought it was like really very is too gimmicky and too cutesy lah, but you know over time right then I just listen to more songs, then, then suddenly like knock knock came out then err I think heart shaker


and what is love then just from then on lor every song they came out it's like is my favourite song lah so I just started to notice them lor then like, err so it become sort of what I listen to nowadays lor


twice but, but now that you mention like there's other groups like itzy <mandarin>还有那个什么:hai you na ge shen me</mandarin> stray cat ah ah stray kids so maybe I'll give them a shot I will I will go and listen to them when I have time


ya but err I think they are okay at least like cause <mandarin>你在这个:ni zai zhe ge</mandarin> industry <mandarin>你唱歌很好听也不一定很红的:ni chang ge hen hao ting ye bu yi ding hen hong de</mandarin> mah like sometimes the <mandarin>那个环境:na ge huan jing</mandarin> is <mandarin>不需要:bu xu yao</mandarin> err <mandarin>不是很需求你:bu shi hen xu qiu ni</mandarin> like <mandarin>很厉害你的你需要做一个唱将还是什么只要你会表演会弄人家开心会带那个气氛就够:hen li hai ni de ni xu yao zuo yi ge chang jiang hai shi shen me zhi yao ni hui biao yan hui nong ren jia kai xin hui dai na ge qi fen jiu gou</mandarin> Liao <mandarin>你不是很需要唱歌:ni bu shi hen xu yao chang ge</mandarin> lah <mandarin>我是这样觉得:wo shi zhe yang jue de</mandarin> lah but even though I say that there are some singers that are very good in singing which I also respect ah but


in terms of like K pop group like the popularity to to say that I like twice doesn't mean that I don't like good don't like don't like good singing like talented vocalist it's just that I prefer their performance and it really brings joy


okay <mandarin>谢谢谢谢你理解我的我的处境:xie xie xie xie ni li jie wo de wo de chu jing</mandarin>


but I think <mandarin>很多很多韩国人会知道他是谁:hen duo hen duo han guo ren hui zhi dao ta shi shui</mandarin> lah like <mandarin>如果你想那个韩国韩国最厉害的四个歌手他应该是其中之一:ru guo ni xiang na ge han guo han guo zui li hai de si ge ge shou ta ying gai shi qi zhong zhi yi</mandarin> lah


err <mandarin>所以是那些周杰伦王力宏那个时代的:suo yi shi na xie zhou jie lun wang li hong na ge shi dai de</mandarin> lah I mean like you know J J Lin and, even <mandarin>阿杜:a du</mandarin> I also got listen to a bit like singapore pride mah so I must support them lah, but I think


ya so I don't know if you have heard of <mandarin>萧敬腾:xiao jing teng</mandarin> but he


like <mandarin>超级星光大道:chao ji xing guang da dao</mandarin> then he got famous cause of the of the one song that he sang, err <mandarin>背叛:bei pan</mandarin> lah I think maybe maybe you know that song is by gary Chaw <mandarin>曹格:cao ge</mandarin> so like, ya so that song really made him popular and I think it got


then, a year later that I started to buy his album then I also went to his concert lah and it was very good


oh that's very interesting you all so nice ah like went went to the fan meet cause cause your brother not not in the country but okay lah you got you got to shake the celebrity hand which is quite good


ya I think, at that young age is very hard to appreciate his kind of music especially of the cause of the intensity of <mandarin>他的他的感情:ta de ta de gan qing</mandarin> that he brings forward in his music


and err so do you listen to any other singer


oh I heard they are also another band what so I think they are in the same category leh also but you can tell me more about this it's


!wah! so how do you think like day six compare to other older bands like, you know FT island and CN blue


so I I think like CN blue and FT island are more <mandarin>传统:chuan tong</mandarin> lah I like they just their music is just either just plain rock, or like or like sort of like pop rock or blues those kind like for CN blue lah cause CN blue like


I think <mandarin>他们的主唱:ta men de zhu chang</mandarin> is like know a bit of music lah so like he composed and he he play multiple instrument also so so he has a bit of his own idea into it then can tell from its sounds it's a, there's a bit of art to it lah but FT island I think like it's more focus on just being


good at producing rock music as you can tell from the focus lah which very strong on that


ah I see cause like when I listen to music I don't really, care so much about the lyrics like but I just focus on the vocals itself like


since cause it's korean mah and I usually I cannot understand it most of the time but I just like I depends on how how they sing it that really brings out the emotions even though like I don't really understand the language that much so like if he's able to


make me feel something like just from his singing without me understand his content then that's good enough already


yes but , and a few vocab and there's only like ten ten verbs that you can use like throughout the whole semester they only teach you like there's not that many things you learn from the syllabus lah so like we are just


is just level one mah so, all we learn right like we can at most write our own name like just tell you, how's the day like what we're going to do later and, to some extent our feelings <mandarin>还有我们的感想:hai you wo men de gan xiang</mandarin> but <mandarin>你要我去读那个歌词然后跟你讲是什么意思我是真的是做不出:ni yao wo qu du na ge ge ci ran hou gen ni jiang shi shen me yi si wo shi zhen de shi zuo bu chu</mandarin> lah


go and take the formal lessons I think, she like I think spent what a few hundred dollars I don't know for how many lesson lah but


but it's quite a big invest lah then <mandarin>最后到来:zui hou dao lai</mandarin> I think <mandarin>他还在学:ta hai zai xue</mandarin> lah, but you can tell that her standard is confirm higher than mine lah


I think the most important thing is you need to keep practising like talking and listening reading and all that stuff but <mandarin>我以我来讲是我只是有时候去听那个音乐有时候去看一点看一点:wo yi wo lai jiang shi wo zhi shi you shi hou qu ting na ge yin yue you shi hou qu kan yi dian kan yi dian</mandarin> drama but <mandarin>我没有是我不是说:wo mei you shi wo bu shi shuo</mandarin> like <mandarin>每天都读都在学习韩文:mei tian dou du dou zai xue xi han wen</mandarin> lah


so that's why my korean is not that not that powerful also


that's why we have subtitles mah so, err that's that's one thing that you don't have to like, really wait that long before the subtitles come out <mandarin>因为这是实际上就是有很多这些好心人跟我们发了那个:yin wei zhe shi shi ji shang jiu shi you hen duo zhe xie hao xin ren gen wo men fa le na ge</mandarin> subtitle <mandarin>不然的话我们:bu ran de hua wo men</mandarin> like you won't even get into K pop in the first place lah it's very hard for us to like


is usually these these subs that will really make us like bring us the fun content


err before


oh


oh I think I think is a phase ah like


oh then that's very dedicated of you after ten years still a hardcore fan !wah! I think <mandarin>我很难想象:wo hen nan xiang xiang</mandarin> like I still like <mandarin>萧敬腾:xiao jing teng</mandarin> cause you know ever since like he change his singing style then


I just a bit bored already lah


always be supporting twice for that long lah cause when they are old they can't really, err this is a fact lah they can't move that much and move that fast anymore so he will probably use <mandarin>他的那些资源去赞助:ta de na xie zi yuan qu zan zhu</mandarin> itzy instead or or or the new band lah like the new japanese band also I think twice will probably like


move on into other areas such as acting or like just going on shows or they might even split up but that's like in the future ah but maybe not in the near future but like I will say maybe five ten years from now I think <mandarin>这个是一个很残酷的世界:zhe ge shi yi ge hen can ku de shi jie</mandarin> ah <mandarin>这个是现实:zhe ge shi xian shi</mandarin> ah <mandarin>你要你必须要接受我觉得:ni yao ni bi xu yao jie shou wo jue de</mandarin> like even for your stray kids ah so don't <mandarin>不要迷恋哥哥只是个传说:bu yao mi lian ge ge zhi shi ge chuan shuo</mandarin> ah


err <mandarin>看这些有的没的:kan zhe xie you de mei de</mandarin> like


it cannot be your life purpose ah to to always be looking for the next come back, and it's all very temporary


find a new hobby that really gives your life fulfilment maybe do you like to draw


then what


oh I see I see, err


err I think <mandarin>可以把你的专辑全部烧掉:ke yi ba ni de zhuan ji quan bu shao diao</mandarin> lor <mandarin>让你让你痛痛狠狠的痛一次:rang ni rang ni tong tong hen hen de tong yi ci</mandarin> then after that you will just stop already since you know that whatever you get it will be burnt by me


this is tough love ah this is tough


and like like just to see how well a product is made cause I'm I'm quite curious like how the, the company like design those products and how they think like we want them to look like


to me like that that's quite interesting to see lah


yes and I also wanted to see like what do JYP a top entertainment company in korea like what's their best cause they use, and it's good to see like what they're most the effort they can put into making a album that's <mandarin>本来是:ben lai shi</mandarin> is just for the CD like a album is for you to listen to songs but now they commercial it and made into a thing that like we have to collect all the photo cards and the photo book is like so well produced and and it become more than just the CD already and people are buying the albums for the sea you have to be honest it's more of like to really appreciate the design and to is more of a collector's item lah basically


ya I think it's okay like as long as you don't over do it, and it doesn't affect your other areas of your life but <mandarin>你买:ni mai</mandarin> like <mandarin>一张两张:yi zhang liang zhang</mandarin> like <mandarin>久久几个月买买一个而已:jiu jiu ji ge yue mai mai yi ge er yi</mandarin> to me like <mandarin>以我现在处境:yi wo xian zai chu jing</mandarin> is is okay lah so I'm I'm I'm not really suffering financially cause of this so I don't really see it as a problem now


that timing clash and he has to get it at the, what best possible time when it's the cheapest where there's flash sale flash sale and is also like before the pre-order period ends so it's about efficiency you see


yes that's the moral of the story [ah] so like (err) we can chat again next time [lah] okay, bye bye


so err, so what do you think you want to, talk about


then I think err, I think, some trainers they focus on, on personal development, err


personal personal development


thinking thinking, how to think positive, in in a crisis ah


korean mapping


oh I remember I remember I remember the the the mood ah, like like describing is describing the the mood, ya


(hmm) (hmm), err <mandarin>我我也是同意你的说法:wo wo ye shi tong yi ni de shuo fa</mandarin> ya, because err, because understanding the mood is very important that that that was affecting our err, mental wellbeing and also our decision making


eh wait ah stop ah stop


okay, , err you are following your heart to do something, which is err


I feel that is err, that is, something err, is is come out from your own view own will err rather than err


err, err firstly I'm not, at work now but


also have a time whereby err, times whereby I, I don't like, certain certain, err issues, at work lah, so there's pros and cons


in a, at work and without work


ya that's right


I think err, there isn't such a, job, in this world ah


oh <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin>


everything can be, everything is measurable, which means that in terms of your mood in terms of, , how much you prioritise the, the things in life


measuring of <mandarin>你的你的:ni de ni de</mandarin> priorities <mandarin>还有你的你的:hai you ni de ni de</mandarin> mental wellness <mandarin>我觉得这是可以让我们更有:wo jue de zhe shi ke yi rang wo men geng you</mandarin> clarity in life


make a better decision, in the future


err <mandarin>我我觉得:wo wo jue de</mandarin> , ya bye bye , they are specialised like some are is specialised in err understanding


from the HR point of view, they are and err <mandarin>有些有些:you xie you xie</mandarin> trainer <mandarin>就:jiu</mandarin> specialise in err


how to, do well in interview, ya so err, so, I'm glad that the the trainers are, are doing their best to help us in


all ways in


to know about myself, what is my strength, and what is my weakness and how can I , do more of, what is helping me, and


it will allow us to err, learn better ya just like why just like why err in the past , a lot of our of lectures are done in real life classroom rather than err everything is through err


internet


oh I feel is very good lah err in a way that, err <mandarin>你是最近才认识我然后你就你就已经可以看得到我的这么大改变在:ni shi zui jin cai ren shi wo ran hou ni jiu ni jiu yi jing ke yi kan de dao wo de zhe me da gai bian zai</mandarin> err


it's something that err this growth has err, so, so prominent and err is helpful, so I will, I will bring all these learning, skills and, mentality to my future as well not just finding work


(hmm) <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin> , err but err I think


I think, the issue would be answering really very difficult question, which is err explaining about explaining about err when the interviewer will, trying to ask questions that were


very out of the context <mandarin>所以就让就让我们:suo yi jiu rang jiu rang wo men</mandarin> as interviewee <mandarin>觉得:jue de</mandarin>


err yes, in a way err ya, in a way err, ya, ya in a way err, ya it it is, difficult as err


when we don't know what to expect, ya at the at the very end whereby , they are trying to go very deep into some of the, very, personal questions ya <mandarin>所以这这就真的需要我们:suo yi zhe zhe jiu zhen de xu yao wo men</mandarin>


[orh] <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin> err, I I think that , every every kind of exercises every kind of err assessment err have its own difficulty ah and requires practice ah


ah <mandarin>所以:suo yi</mandarin> err


cause as I was started out with err trying out err interviewing


online, and <mandarin>我是觉得:wo shi jue de</mandarin> err, ya <mandarin>我紧张到:wo jin zhang dao</mandarin> , I presented in a way that was , very nervous and


like like err, thirteen years old kid lah, ya then after that after that I reflect ah, ya after I reflected that, , this is not, what I can really do lah and this


really don't represent me, but this is what


speak out and then I learnt to, , follow, err <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> trainer <mandarin>怎么讲我就怎么讲:zen me jiang wo jiu zen me jiang</mandarin> ya so I think that is that is


that that will best contribute to my, err learning path


err I have been err going for a few interviews as well ya so that pushes me to


to even err be the best of myself, that's why , but I wouldn't say that I'm I'm already very smooth at what I'm I'm what I am articulating


is still very soft the, ya but , but I, I do learn that I, that there were there were some feedback saying that err I should, put on a


more smile, on my, during my peak speech ah


err delivering the context ya but


err, oh <mandarin>这是一个很好的话题因为:zhe shi yi ge hen hao de hua ti yin wei</mandarin> err


able to, delivering, a proper way or answering things ya, ya but but <mandarin>他们这样他们这样:ta men zhe yang ta men zhe yang</mandarin> err


ya so


ah <mandarin>对啊对啊对啊:dui a dui a dui a</mandarin>


ya but <mandarin>当然当然:dang ran dang ran</mandarin> err I fully agree with err what err you have mentioned


ya but I just err was just err explaining to you like, I had a, experience whereby, it wasn't so pleasant, ya but but <mandarin>从中:cong zhong</mandarin> but <mandarin>从中我觉得我觉得:cong zhong wo jue de wo jue de</mandarin>


err, we smiling


I think, experience and ya, and ya experience and practice is very important ah


ah <mandarin>当然如果我们说道有有趣还是说到有:dang ran ru guo wo men shuo dao you you qu hai shi shuo dao you</mandarin> err <mandarin>很特别让我们:hen te bie rang wo men</mandarin> err <mandarin>互相惊讶的一些过程:hu xiang jing ya de yi xie guo cheng</mandarin> err I feel that err it's something that will trigger us to have some expression and


and and uh, delighted ah ya err but, but the reason for the times that I wasn't smiling , I will say that err I was err, try to think deeply about what happened in the past


that I can use it as example to, explain explain my my thoughts ah, ya so I I I I was only hope I always hope that the audience would always, listen and understand me ah I think that is, err something that


I will really prefer, err my audience to be ah ya err but of course that that is a very ideal type but , but, I will just do my best to articulate, articulate the best I can


, interviewer as well ya because err


interviews interviewer should err understand that err when we try to recall certain work experience I think they should understand that we are actually try to recall something that is err quite, sometime ago ya but of course <mandarin>他们也希望我们:ta men ye xi wang wo men</mandarin> able to articulate


very smoothly and naturally lah ya <mandarin>所以我觉得这些都需要我们:suo yi wo jue de zhe xie dou xu yao wo men</mandarin> interviewee as err, practice lah <mandarin>需要我们:xu yao wo men</mandarin> to practice <mandarin>在家里:zai jia li</mandarin> so <mandarin>然后然后再去面试:ran hou ran hou zai qu mian shi</mandarin> ya


ya I think is really very good, ya especially especially Zoom err allows err multiple, err, people, streaming so , a lot of people are able to, err check on each other and then to see if err


an individual whether they are are delivering err the, the appropriate, way of err


err <mandarin>当然当然我觉得:dang ran dang ran wo jue de</mandarin> err, the the trainers err, virtual interviews, ya whereby whereby <mandarin>我们要:wo men yao</mandarin> comfortable showing our face to the interviewer


how to, how to err, how to familiarise like as though we are talking in real life


err <mandarin>我们就没有那个:wo men jiu mei you na ge</mandarin> muscle memory <mandarin>我们就可能:wo men jiu ke neng</mandarin>


like <mandarin>我们就:wo men jiu</mandarin> forced to be engaged so <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> learning <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> became a forced one


but, it is a positive one because it lead us to follow what the trainer going to teach us, ah <mandarin>所以我觉得:suo yi wo jue de</mandarin> err


[orh]


[orh], [orh]


[orh] <mandarin>了解:liao jie</mandarin> (hmm)


the confidence to speak


, ah <mandarin>所以我觉得是不过份:suo yi wo jue de shi bu guo fen</mandarin> lah ya <mandarin>当然当然:dang ran dang ran</mandarin> err <mandarin>你你说的不可能:ni ni shuo de bu ke neng</mandarin> err like <mandarin>很像没有这么这么舒服:hen xiang mei you zhe me zhe me shu fu</mandarin> err err I I feel that it can be adjusted lah ya because you need to adjust to the most comfortable way in a way that you can


deliver deliver all these err, all these thought professionally to, to during our interview ah


uh,


<mandarin>当然我说:dang ran wo shuo</mandarin> , ah <mandarin>不一样:bu yi yang</mandarin> lah <mandarin>因为他们是:yin wei ta men shi</mandarin> <mandarin>他们是:ta men shi</mandarin> trainer so they have to, be very professional and they cannot make the atmosphere or, err environment to be awkward ah


or, awkward silence ya so , ya <mandarin>所以他们:suo yi ta men</mandarin> , ya <mandarin>所以:suo yi</mandarin>


that's why that's why err they have to be really very on the ball, ya <mandarin>所以:suo yi</mandarin> err <mandarin>我非常赞同他们这样做:wo fei chang zan tong ta men zhe yang zuo</mandarin> ah


during all my interview


ya <mandarin>所以我们才会不会显得:suo yi wo men cai hui bu hui xian de</mandarin> like, , very, sloppy very lazy and and the way we articulate will be, more alert


ah


ya <mandarin>不是:bu shi</mandarin> ah <mandarin>不是两个都站住:bu shi liang ge dou zhan zhu</mandarin> eh ah


okay lah actually <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin> err <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin> like in the morning she need to speak, err very engaging for err three four hours, and after after lunchtime <mandarin>他需要:ta xu yao</mandarin> speak another, three to four hours very engaging


ya <mandarin>但但但但我觉得我觉得我们:dan dan dan dan wo jue de wo jue de wo men</mandarin> , I feel that we can be seated down upright


, just to deliver , our conversation properly err it's because , the interview only last for at most one two hour at most


, , ah <mandarin>这是:zhe shi</mandarin> ya


ya probably I'll take that that method of standing up to


to speak ah, so that will always, err allow my audience to be engaging to my conversation, I think the, I think that method is err, worth a try


properly ah and also err you need to have a good, good a good stand for each equipment so that err they will stand together with you at a eye level


ya ya I think all this is is, it's doable


ah yes yes, oh okay I mean, oh <mandarin>我觉得我觉得我们可以在可能延迟多一点点:wo jue de wo jue de wo men ke yi zai ke neng yan chi duo yi dian dian</mandarin> lah


err <mandarin>交叉的一些:jiao cha de yi xie</mandarin> err conversation ya so I think, err speaking a little bit longer a little bit would be, good for them lah


err <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de</mandarin> err, err


err <mandarin>对我来说:dui wo lai shuo</mandarin>


err <mandarin>我是喜欢真正能正能量的东西:wo shi xi huan zhen zheng neng zheng neng liang de dong xi</mandarin> ya so I feel all these


it is a life skill [ah] is not just (err) at this point of time I feel I feel if I'm capable of delivering things that are


okay I think since we got to know one another through the webinar


err <mandarin>就是自由发挥:jiu shi zi you fa hui</mandarin> feel free to express what we have learnt


okay <mandarin>好这样我们就从我们上过不同的课:hao zhe yang wo men jiu cong wo men shang guo bu tong de ke</mandarin> err some trainers have attended with maybe you're not in there you just let me know some trainers that I've learned from


err so do you like the technical one [orh] <mandarin>你比较喜欢那个:ni bi jiao xi huan na ge</mandarin> uh, err <mandarin>另外一方面另外一方面你讲的是什么:ling wai yi fang mian ling wai yi fang mian ni jiang de shi shen me</mandarin> !huh! <mandarin>一个是:yi ge shi</mandarin> technical <mandarin>另外一个是:ling wai yi ge shi</mandarin> what


[orh] personal okay, err


honestly I find that err the technical aspects got me to reconsider many other things that I wasn't aware about


so we probably can delve into, uh one aspect of it and then the other one later on, then <mandarin>你要哪一个开始先你要讲那个:ni yao na yi ge kai shi xian ni yao jiang na ge</mandarin> personal <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> or the technical development


uh <mandarin>学到是那个:xue dao shi na ge</mandarin> err mapping <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> the korean mapping remember


and then you put there you share the the the one where we draw the chart err what job was it and then where we were feeling after that, err, how that one affected our emotions


ah yes, ah


err is the


err year to take note of the year things happened to take note


uh other words I find that I don't keep track of the time frame, and I really am not good then is like


(hmm), I, err, honestly I was very I honestly I was very impressed err honestly I was very impressed with uh your ability to


I find it that only cost me to start thinking oh I really need to pay attention to which year what happen, and then take note of the, err take note of the date and, err emotional part not so much because I think basically I have been doing the things that I enjoy


(hmm), err I agree I maybe this part of it I can share a little bit, err that job


like stay on the job for the stick sake of staying on for a job and get so bored, ya so, , ah


so <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> how about you are you err are you enjoying what you are doing at work


is that what what I'm understanding you, oh okay, okay so so


this is very normal because, that job something is not right right cannot be everything we


we enjoy in in a work definitely there will be a mixture of, some things we enjoy in our work a part of it that we don't enjoy, right


and then how the technical aspect as well as personal development part, err I think that mapping of how we feel


and how we, err how we feel and the year the jobs that we have been in in charting those, aspect


err other aspects you find that the that was of use to you from the webinar the different webinar you attended


(mmhmm)


a technical aspect of the whole whole whole course right


err aspects that you are able to see yourself, actually progress and move in this whole thing about uh what you have learnt


do it better right with err <mandarin>正能量:zheng neng liang</mandarin> with the the positive energy or the the ah ya the positivity so


err


, so in other words you have actually noticed, what are the, things uh in


in your life that can be changed for the better, and uh


, I I I think I totally agree with your input regarding changing from the eh aspects that you see you can grew to be even more positive to


err <mandarin>本来你的那个:ben lai ni de na ge</mandarin> laptop <mandarin>没有声音等等你就会很积极:mei you sheng yin deng deng ni jiu hui hen ji ji</mandarin> you were very quick to go and change it to see oh is it clearer now et cetera et cetera and then


err, err <mandarin>甚至:shen zhi</mandarin> the view in the camera


err showing your face in Zoom so , I think that you really meet that effort to, to change even for the better


err QR code oh scan it scan it give feedback <mandarin>我跟你这样聊的时候你说:wo gen ni zhe yang liao de shi hou ni shuo</mandarin> okay send QR code <mandarin>给你:gei ni</mandarin> ah let me send the QR code to you and then you actually meant it as a joke


err <mandarin>力求上进:li qiu shang jin</mandarin> err err strive for excellence wanting to better yourself, eh ya so <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> I I personally think this this aspect of you


it's not like people who attend webinars and then after that forget about it <mandarin>你是上了:ni shi shang le</mandarin> webinar <mandarin>之后还学以致用还拿出来还跟周周围的人拿来开玩笑所以我说:zhi hou hai xue yi zhi yong hai na chu lai hai gen zhou zhou wei de ren na lai kai wan xiao suo yi wo shuo</mandarin> (hmm) <mandarin>蛮有趣的:man you qu de</mandarin> ya


err <mandarin>面试技巧:mian shi ji qiao</mandarin> err interviewing skills aspect what are the difficulties you actually find


err after attending the webinar is there any particular area you find that eh you want to polish up a little bit


ah,


, in other words you actually find that err, err there are certain aspect of the interviewing skills that you are very comfortable


ah okay, ya I I thought, sorry you go ahead ya


, , because I also find that those, err so called impromptu questions err being asked


is err very much err, dependent on how we respond there and then, however there are also those, whereby <mandarin>我们可以就是:wo men ke yi jiu shi</mandarin> err


therefore, err we need to, continue to practice that


just like a


, err


err in other words in any interview this whole thing about communication, is definitely a very important aspect


err communication <mandarin>也其实是:ye qi shi shi</mandarin> soft skills <mandarin>之一对吧我们那个课程里面就是说有时候有一些:zhi yi dui ba wo men na ge ke cheng li mian jiu shi shuo you shi hou you yi xie</mandarin> skills <mandarin>得要有的就是:de yao you de jiu shi</mandarin> soft skills like communication <mandarin>等等:deng deng</mandarin> eh what do you think about your own communication skills


oh !wow! there must be quite a scary thing,


challenging for you but you, err came out err


even better from what you were


oh, [orh]


, , , err err your reply again your response now


err, automatically lead lead me to recall that particular, session we have whereby you


so I thought that was the other what is that !wow! very impressive you know and then


didn't tell me that story about yourself


so I am very impressed now that I have heard this story of yours that


(hmm)


, (hmm) <mandarin>现在你讲到这一个我就又想起一个我关于我自己的学习过程这个是:xian zai ni jiang dao zhe yi ge wo jiu you xiang qi yi ge wo guan yu wo zi ji de xue xi guo cheng zhe ge shi</mandarin> personal development, err


err


serious, so err <mandarin>你讲的:ni jiang de</mandarin> what you just shared caused me to also think about myself sometimes like when I am in my thinking mode


[orh], err she's not so serious and strict that kind but to appear


, I seem to hear, two aspect of it it doesn't mean that to be professional means you don't smile


to achieve


uh <mandarin>笑的限度是多少:xiao de xian du shi duo shao</mandarin> and then is like what again back to you use that measurable thing professional measurable means what, cause me to have some questions ah based on your input


ah


ah oh


do you refer to audience in general or you are referring to interviewer specifically


, ah okay


because I think, I mentioned that myself, sometimes when I'm so called even recalling some information recalling some facts


I may appear to be very serious in my looks, and and of course certainly I do hope the interviewer or my audience would understand me


is because I thought eh we could probably even check with one another you know like eh


you see you are looking serious even though when you are sharing right is like eh you look serious eh can you please smile a bit ah like what what you are doing now or like while while I record while I record I can just speak and smile as I am doing now you know


the webinars we have picked up quite a number of things that we can, not just used but, check on each other right, what do you think


, what do you think about us like using, err using Zoom and not appearing on screen


you know there are there were moments right when, I mean there were many moments that I don't appear on screen and then there were also moments that I appear because


, (mmhmm)


to ask of us to do lah right


, , err <mandarin>培训员的角度去看:pei xun yuan de jiao du qu kan</mandarin> the trainer has got the intention to get us engaged I suppose uh for my case when I


when I don't turn on the camera is because is like I have got things I need to write and then is like got things I need to write meaning is that whatever people share uh my thoughts et cetera that I need to write but if I were to


additional thing you know like in between class, so in other words it's like I was also considering who would be distracted and you see like right now right


I'm like sitting honestly, and then <mandarin>另外一个是那个屁股:ling wai yi ge shi na ge pi gu</mandarin> hor my butt ah is like !aiyo! <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> the cushion is like no the stool is so small you know I got to sit on it so


ah and then


video lah


, err


so <mandarin>你觉得你会尝试:ni jue de ni hui chang shi</mandarin> to stand up and and listen to webinar would you do that


would you, follow what they suggest to stand up and do your interview,


uh because, number two, I think I'll be moving around till I disappeared from the screen


their suggestion and their, their input is very valuable, err but I think I, err logistically


other trainers who does webinar by standing up, that's why it caught me, I mean it's like


so I just find that that was like, very interesting lah, right


eh <mandarin>你晓不晓得我们其实讲了差不多要一个小时了:ni xiao bu xiao de wo men qi shi jiang le cha bu duo yao yi ge xiao shi le</mandarin> leh, are you aware we are already fifty-five minutes that's amazing right , so <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> err


but would you


to let you move about there are really quite a number of other factors to consider, like like especially if we want to stand up isn't it


, , (mmhmm)


to explore Zoom even further, whether to engage people et cetera right, right


(hmm) so what do you think about our, err recording session today we are coming to an end soon it's three more minutes you know


, err <mandarin>好像是公开的:hao xiang shi gong kai de</mandarin> leh ah <mandarin>不要紧已经说了比较:bu yao jin yi jing shuo le bi jiao</mandarin> Lobang <mandarin>了没没问题:le mei mei wen ti</mandarin> so anyway <mandarin>我我是在想说好像:wo wo shi zai xiang shuo hao xiang</mandarin> eh <mandarin>我们这个你觉得我们今年谈的东西:wo men zhe ge ni jue de wo men jin nian tan de dong xi</mandarin> did we actually discuss the content of our webinars about how it actually benefited us


or how what what those webinars has change have changed, in us, what do you think


ah,


on the resume err <mandarin>去应征:qu ying zheng</mandarin> err, err handle people, then


[orh],


okay let's put on our headphones lah , , hello hello, okay let's go back go to the first prompt I think the three wishes is a bit, too annoying I don't know I don't like it


so, err if I think the next one lah if you drop everything to follow your dreams what will you risk, , what would you risk


no no no no risk risk what would you risk, it's, ya would you sacrifice your friends or sacrifice something, ya what would you sacrifice basically,


, superficial stuff ah


, but, continue continue, really


, , for me, for me right I think I might actually risk my, morals a bit, my morals a bit it's like, in the exam, is like in exam you know you shouldn't cheat


you know you shouldn't cheat but, is you know you can cheat safely but you know you shouldn't cheat, so I technically I'm throwing risking my, my, what's that what I did say again now my motives my morals morals yes that's the word I use


I risk my morals ah sometimes, but that's at the level of, err cheating for exams only, so in terms of actual dreams, actual dreams, maybe a bit of lies here and there but I have no


inter risking, maybe I might risk, if it comes to actually going with my dream maybe friends if it's until very very bad, but, ya, that, wait would you risk your friends


like friendship,


, , makes sense ah make sense ah, but one it really depends what it is lah, it's not I won't I wouldn't mind risking, dreams for like, for for like <mandarin>朋友:peng you</mandarin> or something but I'm not really sure


if it really depends on the dream lah maybe would maybe not most if I had a choice I will not lah obviously, (hmm), (hmm), morals ya


yes,


maybe, maybe I'll say that I had , I let my morals down but with a good reason, let's say I've gotten a good GPA or something see a good GPA to, err, maybe I could have gotten maybe it will be the same even if I cheat this because maybe I will plus like five mark it wouldn't matter anything


but then, I still had a guarantee I had the peace of mind, I rather follow the no regret, no regrets, no regrets line, maybe I will regret it if I get caught but if I don't get caught, maybe I wouldn't regret it because it's just throwing my morals for a small thing


for big thing I wouldn't know ah, as in <mandarin>就是我不知道:jiu shi wo bu zhi dao</mandarin> lah how to say if anything, you see it really depends on the dream let's say you will get a million dollars, okay no a billion dollars might have to kill a guy


you have to kill a guy but then you won't be found you won't be found out you have to kill this random gun on the streets, would you do it, , one billion dollars, ya ya I'm asking you, a billion dollars, billion dollar you won't get caught you won't go jail


but you have to kill this one guy will you do it, , for myself ah I might actually do it ah see how


if you won't get caught you won't get caught, err you just have to kill that one guy, however you however way you want to kill him you just have to kill that one guy, but you won't get caught, you won't be labelled,


oh, , , , oh the guilty ah


it's like if you have a billion dollars you can follow whatever dream you have, but you want to be a successful businessman or whatever you can use that billion dollar to invest on your own company, but at the expense of killing one person but is like karma lah how to say you kill one person


then you might go hell or something, , <mandarin>是非:shi fei</mandarin> ah <mandarin>死葬:si zang</mandarin> ah, honestly honestly right


I'm a I I'm a person who, err unless it's very very heartfelt I won't feel too much guilt one, too too much guilt one, err I can erase that guilt lah try to erase that guilt, so I would say maybe I will do it but I'm not


I would say as a seventy percent chance I'll do it depending on how desperate I am, , , you you don't know you don't know maybe you would maybe don't know I don't know eh,


, okay okay, then move on to second prompt err the other prompt, err if you had any have any superpower what would it be, , , unusual superpower what will it be


, actually no idea, , really, , ya


uh, particularly what do you want to see it, , , , (mmhmm) yes, okay lah I will pick, , what superpower ah


I think I will pick mind reading ah, I mean is it unusual, is it considered unusual, !aiya! whatever lah, okay lah whatever lah whatever okay I want mind reading cause, I want to know everything, is like you know like eh someone


or oh I debate with you all these thing if you can read their mind and counter them counter them or, let's say someone is telling a lie and you want you you know is a you know is supposed to be, is it should be a lie but you can't confirm it, with this superpower you can ah


so be quite cool ah, you can confirm it's a lie all this thing, then you you can win debates all this thing, ah then whatever answers even for exams then you can read someone mind eh, okay okay this the answer


, err, exam, see what will come ask teacher eh what will come out for the exam then you can just then he will say no err I cannot tell you but he's mind he can think already lah, see imagine you use that


, , ya I focused a lot of academics one you see I revolve around academics a lot one then keep thinking about the hehe exams getting the answers, eventhough I can just do it myself and probably get an a but I still think of it so much I don't know why hehe


, a psychologist ah, [orh] you can do the mind mind reader what do they call that thing again


, it's like the constellation all this thing one like the, you know like the witch in like cartoons one, where the crystal ball this thing predict your future you can just be a fake there ah , read your mind or you you are girl this thing your credit number is like this blah blah blah do you believe me now okay this is your future then you go scam people money


yes, kays next prompt, come ah you prompt me ah , ,


what labels are, (hmm) what, label, ya I know <mandarin>我也知道:wo ye zhi dao</mandarin> ah but how to labels ah, I see this before like, yesterday when I was reading it but I'm not really sure


maybe in terms of, society ah, actually not really sure you don't wanna answer this , ya , ah


what is that one thing we wish was free, [orh] food , if food was free, but it's impossible lah but if food was free if there's like too much food in the world and they give it out for free maybe never cook it ah but because free then you can eat your heart's content lor


I guess, and you don't have to worry because most of the people's income is used on food, most of it is used on food because you spend like what five dollars a meal or something like that, so that adds up to like around err twelve to fifteen dollars a day


so if you can save that amount of money, save that amount of money every day, see, , that's the one, was it, [orh] I, ya


then ya, no you continue you continue first, , but sadly it has to be cultivated ah food have to be


err cultivated in the this thing quite impossible lah and people have to cook it, to want what, what, yes then what do you want


[orh] education education in general lah, ,


ya <mandarin>也有一点贵了:ye you yi dian gui le</mandarin> lah, ya correct ah correct ah makes sense


, , true ah true ah, , ya true ah true ah,


true ah true ah, is very is it is in other countries also have other country also have but imagine it's like US it's at the US where education is expensive, not say like community college all this lah but


let's say like very big colleges like err, not say the big ones ah maybe like university of Phoenix or something like all those like it's not they have something called community college which is the cheaper version of their college


and there's a high end which is harvard lah hundred K per hundred K per year, that one we don't say but there's the middle one like, !huh!, what, ah yes <mandarin>一百千十万:yi bai qian shi wan</mandarin> right there but then there's the middle kind one right is also very expensive


and plus their culture is revolved around that a lot, so they have debt then they can't pay it off and their debt is expensive, oh ya do you know that that they're bankrupt if they filed for bankruptcy right their student loan does not does not go away


ya, in US, in in terms, in err in okay in usual in every country right bankruptcy right then they will wave off every every debt you have, but you can't do a lot of things lah if they wave off err if they wave if you declare bankruptcy but for US because a lot people had declared declared bankruptcy because of student loan


they said err if you declare bankruptcy you cannot, you cannot remove that debt, so after that you have to I have no idea what happens lah I just know that, you have, you have to pay back in a way you still have to pay back maybe they freeze the interest or something but you still have to pay back


yes, there's, it's very stupid is <mandarin>很很笨的:hen hen ben de</mandarin> lah it's just very stupid ah , err but okay,


okay if humans no longer needed to work to survive what will you do, what would we do, , imagine AI take everything ah , ,


, , but you it's like, no but then you don't need to but they say no longer needed to work but uh humans need


a purpose though that's the thing, a purpose in life like let's say if you work at least you have that purpose maybe not very strong lah, , how to say, actually no eh


but honestly I'm thinking of the wall E one that's the only few things I can, wall E or the, have you watch what's that thing called, , okay never mind let's go to wall E first something basic something like that ah you don't care you play with your friends you also don't work


but then you lose meaning in life to some extent, , basically, people will die at like fifty instead of hundred , because you you lost meaning in life you don't need to do anything you don't need to really learn, , ya if if you don't need to work to survive or maybe


maybe instead to work to survive maybe you just work for gratification, maybe humans will still work for gratification or something, like to be part of society I guess,


they can still work, ,


, (ppc), have are you, and are you familiar with the term universal basic income, , oh really, okay basically this is a, term right is


is I think is err said by, Facebook it's said by what's that guy's name again mark zuckerberg or someone I forgot already basically it's like a few billionaires right they proposed this thing called universal basic income, so basically everyone in the world will have


a income already, already have income this to counteract the AI the rise of AI, so then if err <mandarin>人民不能做工了:ren min bu neng zuo gong le</mandarin> hor then, uh that's what they proposed to have a income for everyone so that they can at least


pay to survive, so, then err, what they want is, , what what is it again ah, okay so for universal basic income you can work to have even more income, but you have this basic income there so that err you can survive so I think it's basically along the lines of this way but I think people are still work more ah will still work more to survive I guess


, , everything is based on work ah , true true,

okay what, it's one of the nicer ones, , you just don't like it lah you just don't like it lah (hmm), that one, the one that one the, the graphics is the one that stands out the most because the


the production did a lot on the graphics so if you compare it to other animes right, the this particular violet evergarden have movie standard graphics movie standard like art style for each episode also so it's very nice lah at least that's what I felt lah

err, err that time I don't have to tag yet I don't have the, orange tag, so me I need to take the sticker, so I went through the front gate I got the orange sticker zuran ran through by car so he got a green sticker,


so so green sticker then I we went to food club to eat because err, there the food there is nicer than Makan place went there, the person is like no you cannot go in, then we show like oh we're both from the same block we're the same same same partner all this thing


then he's like no you cannot go in this the rules, but he understood, he understand, but he say like okay never mind don't need ah you shouldn't come, then I just say I just said err it's not jokingly I'm actually asking this then can we just take off the sticker then since you understand our situation can we just go


then he became so angry it's like what what do you mean you cannot break the system why you why you cheat the system then I was like you understand mah you understand our situation, then in the end I go eat food club zuran eat at Makan place,

wait what, good looks or, (hmm) actually fit body ah, is considered as fit body


is it fit body is good because you can, you don't need to suffer as long, then you can, but good looks can get you a lot of things


I would say fit body is the opposite of a fat one lah, I would say uh you won't get tired easily all these thing lor I think I'll go for fit body ah, I'll go for fit body, then you won't, cause I guess fit body is good looks in the same in a way right it looks good in a way so fit body let's say uh okay ah in my case maybe six pack ah


six pack would be nice lor, you see then you go do let's say because I'm going NS soon already right having a fit body works better for you then can go, go what err, , I guess you can be top at your end


you just won't suffer in NS lah, and plus you if you got fit body you look better lor, if you look ugly with a fit body I think it still looks fine overall, ya that's my final one then you eh,
