okay, maybe not even like one year, so like I don't understand, how does this work, I just tak faham I was just like


what the heck like it's cute, that the guy actually, but like one week into getting together though, I don't know


like just touch wood lah imagine if you don't, like he's not the one that you marry and then korang like !wah! full blown invested like I don't know ah I I was just confused I never would


have gotten together in the first place ah of knowing a guy for less than one month, but then there's also <P2>#Saif#</P2> so


okay cool, !huh!, what, what


!huh!, wait what I cannot even comprehend that, so this girl like freaking younger than me had a boyfriend lepas tu buka bank account


are they still together


to get out of jail, ah


because I met another person, like the effort, I don't know babe like you cannot really judge


like, I don't know, I don't know man


oh ya sia like I don't know recently like, I I get both sides cause you know as a girl you want reassurance but like you cannot deny you want reassurance but then the fact that you are asking for reassurance about something so far fetched


is very weird like, cause, in but I would like, want him to tell me like !hey! we're gonna be in this for the long run lah


so okay so, , there's this one friend of mine, like, then like, ah, ah yeah yeah yeah so


most of our friends like our mutual friends are like dating like have been dating for like five years or whatever like really really long so they actually know let's say like, we're gonna get married here this day eh this year and like we are gonna plan for it lah like they actually have a plan like a future <P2>Amy</P2> has been together with her boyfriend for like a solid five months


and then her boyfriend is the logical type okay like <P2>Amy</P2> and me are the same we're like fucking romantic and be like baby I love you I love you from the moon to the moon back whatever bull crap right and then the guy is the type that won't say anything that


he knows it's might not be true you know, so, she's then recently she got jealous that, her boy like her friends are like all thinking about marriage and future and then, like her boyfriend doesn't even want to say like she will say shit like


oh I hope it's going to be you in the end or like I hope it's you, the rest of my life that kind of shit and then like he will just dodge the entire thing, and then she got so sad, and then, she got so sad that now she wants to try a fucking keto diet


she wants to try let me reiterate and repeat these again okay she was so sad that he doesn't want to you know like, give her reassurance that he's gonna be there for her like


till the end then she wants to do a keto diet so that she can be skinny, that body goals I don't know man it's just a whole ass mess like she's just so sad


there's that but then you also need, ya I just that's why I was thinking like I get her point of view like I get it cause I really think that if you really love someone, no matter what, you still want reassurance that they're gonna be there


for a long time, because you love them that much but then like if you compare it like five months and five years is two different things ah, no I just got blocked nose , I don't know why


suddenly like throughout this thing suddenly got blocked nose I don't even know why, but yeah there's that, I just like, ah, ya so the next time <P2>Russell</P2> asked me to drink there you better bring your ass down


and then if <P2>#Saif#</P2> texts me I'll let you know, there's that, there's so much, !huh!


ah ya that's why how to go drinking I ask <P2>#Russell#</P2> pay ah <P2>#Russell</P2> my daddy, he my zaddy, ah


tell you so messy perangai everybody semua perangai Macam [sial], uh ah, oh yeah how's your work, like when are you starting like are you not gonna start work


, !huh! so you are actually not working yet lah

yeah I go, I went to work, oh I had school in the morning I finally finished my exams, yeah, and after that there's, I have like a solid like about two three weeks break


it's supposed to be a month but I don't think it's gonna be a month so yeah, peace out, girl's going to like, !huh!, which one


Ice Talk bubble tea, oh my god , it's really cheap, uh, have you tried blue coral


ya ya ya, ya ya ya ya ya it's like that, dude, I really never tried blue coral my entire life but everytime a Melayu comes by, okay my childhood ya what is wrong with everybody like everybody's telling me blue coral is their childhood and I'm like my childhood was the freaking like salty


uh wheel cracker you know the wheel cracker you don't know, you don't know ah yeah that's my childhood


no I never, ah


ah, bless you


ah, ah, , I never tried it before but like the Melayu right god like the typical like if the Chinese walk pass you know they're gonna be like peach green tea lah the normal milk tea the Malays if they come right jesus christ they're gonna make me do ice blended at the back and be like blue coral smoothie chocolate oreo


the ice blend and I'm just like !alamak! makcik like I know lah like, I don't know man I got no nothing against you but I just don't like making smoothies, at Ice Talk cause they only have two blenders and they're so loud, but like there's that this is the reason why but like everytime it's either blue coral


or chocolate oreo like you the melayu the makcik be like, yeah, I never, I never actually tried oreo blended, before


like you know the typical like Macam Boost or like some shit like that lah but like the actual like just oreo and milk, and blend, never, like throughout my childhood I never, yeah I did also


, Ice Talk they put creamer, creamer and sugar cause they ask you what sugar you want, how much sugar you want, but like shout out to Ice Talk, your freaking hazelnut milk tea is a solid that's that shit is a solid milk tea


other than that nah, not really not my thing, KOI, KOI I never tried hazelnut milk tea from anywhere


I mean KOI punya milk tea already nice, so anything you put on top of that is nice, !huh!, ah ya ya ya ya ya


oh my god Gong Cha teas are solid their taro milk tea freaking solid bro, ah


what you drink


, yeah, ya cause any of the jelly comes with sugar what


why though, will you eat oh yeah you would I was going to ask you would you eat like the Cold Storage, I want to really badly


you wait until like seven o'clock eight o'clock when they cut, but like Sushi Deli isn't any cheaper though, when I went there like seriously


what is it and it's actually halal but it closed down but ya that one, ya fifty cents


ah


I should have taken everything , finish ah


I never, at the start I went to a masjid madrasah for awhile only like, before Andalus I started in primary one so I think when I was like in kindergarten like for two years I was at


have you heard I think you've heard about it before no, yeah, so, , the baju is green colour and then my tudung is yellow in colour so maybe that's where my name like nyonya telur came about cause girl girl imagine with that circle face and then the yellow tudung really not cute


but okay so the only thing I don't even remember going there you know but the only thing that I remember oh my god I love my whole story is that right, I came back home, one day from school cause my parents will always fetch me cause it's like in the middle like it's not even in


but is in the middle of a road, and then after that right like, after that, , one day I went back home and then I just told my mum, ma somebody kiss me on the cheek


I'm a fucking kindergarten kindergarten is what fucking six years old or five five to six years old I went back home I was like ma somebody kiss me on my cheek and then my mother was like the fuck is wrong then after that they realised right that


like then next day they went and like find out who the guy who the guy is like siapa lelaki yang cium anak aku you know it's like maybe I don't know, but like they went right, my yayi and my mum pergi ah pergi to the masjid and then after that they actually like found out the the guy that kiss me


was like a family friend, it was so messy and then like I was just like I don't even know how he looks like you know sekarang I cannot remember like I cannot remember anything, then like, I remember like they will talk about it so recently like they will just say you know like instead of saying the guy's name or the mum's name


ah then I was just like, you know dia literally casually called the dude that name and apparently that he's still in my life, but I don't know who he is I've never seen him before but his name will pop out like my nyai will like talk about it to my mum


somehow, it's so weird so it's kind, I cannot remember but the only thing I can remember is what my mum is telling me which I did, to tell her which is just I just waddle waddle up and then be like mama mama ah ada orang cium <P2>#Iqah#</P2> kat pipi and then I like went like this to my cheeks and all that and then my mother was like what the fuck is going on


and then my mum went down the next day with my nyai to go and see the guy and then apparently the guy like people will fetch your child what cause it's like in a Ulu place


and then I was just like, it's damn weird, ya so ya there's that so I don't know about you but girl girl got kissed at the cheek when she was five ,


I hate myself so much I was such a hoe, at such a young age


you know, ya I almost said mertua this is why I cannot be nobody's menantu when I cannot even say menantu correctly


, okay we cool after so much shit and then <P2>#Aisyah#</P2> story's is just not done okay then


my mum I guess


like you nak datang rumah I ke tak you datang lah <P2>Mai</P2> lah is it, that


are you serious, can it be cured


oh my god


!huh! serious ah, like


like how did it go from, her to your mum so fast


can you imagine our batch having a JC reunion but okay cool but besides the point, but selected people or what


oh, that is not a reunion but okay kinda like okay


, , some fucking vicious cycle right there


what


ya like why are you putting words into my mouth like what do you know, whether


or like what, so like ya in conclusion you really attract toxic girls


or friends I guess, okay that's a bad thing to say lah how are you supposed to make friends if you don't want to tell people, about, the things that bother you, but then really though like genuinely you really attract


really bad people but then we are friends so I don't know what am I saying about myself, I like, yeah, am I like your first stable friend, like the mentally stable like the one that is not about to burst into a bubble everytime


and <P2>Eileen</P2> not considered a stable friend


ten years later, ya tell her the tea that she's gonna get next is me sitting on <P2>#Kahir#</P2>'s lap to beat the bitch up, to make


ya but there's that, !wah! shit sia I'm still damn salty about it like can you believe it sampai sekarang sia I'm just like so tilted, but like it's okay, I'll be okay


I will forgive and forget girl girl, will not, succumb to being such a big bitch, I know right


but really though naik motor is really fun like it's actually really fun


it's so freaking fun, like the last time I naik motor was this guy who fetch me from work, you know it's just like fuck, I don't know like motor is fun but I want a car


cause girl girl can drive and, you know safety and all, but like motor is fun, yes


bye bye baby, bye (ppo)


ok let's start our conversation


how's my day ah, now since err I just finish <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> NS right so I got nothing much to do, but my parents err before they <mandarin>要我去:yao wo qu</mandarin> university I got nothing to do like as of now lah so now like I just not doing much at home lor finding I guess err part time jobs like <mandarin>再想要做什么:zai xiang yao zuo shen me</mandarin> like <mandarin>想:xiang</mandarin> like you know like do what course checking like whether this this uni got like


like example like this course whether does it offer part time or not because you know like <mandarin>有一些:you yi xie</mandarin> course right they only offer full time because there's like a lot of like a lot of work and <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> like


err what course I thinking to apply ah, got one


but, err ya website then like got a bit of <mandarin>一些:yi xie</mandarin> coding involve lah then but then but then it will also be kind of related to game design because you learn about where you put <mandarin>那些:nei xie</mandarin> button as a child like you want to put like the button where put is is easy and good for the user you know and


nice, so, ya


(ah),


uh I see, so, so you need to so like so I I thinking of that <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> course lah but of course there's still like other course <mandarin>有一个:you yi ge</mandarin> course <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> talk about err err no <mandarin>不是:bu shi</mandarin> diploma err degree <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> err counselling then at first I told my mom right then <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> mum <mandarin>讲:jiang</mandarin> err don't go for that course


you know, you you you know why like my mum say like go for degree in counselling like not good because err because right


at first I thought that counselling was a <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> like <mandarin>一个很:yi ge hen</mandarin> good <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> course lah cause <mandarin>你要你你可以跟人家:ni yao ni ni ke yi gen ren jia</mandarin> like <mandarin>讲话:jiang hua</mandarin> what then like I don't mind to I don't mind to talk to people since since last time in like secondary school right <mandarin>我那个:wo na ge</mandarin> English <mandarin>是我一个:shi wo yi ge</mandarin> one of my best subject like for my for my Maths is still ok but for like my humanities and


like Geography and, like err what other jobs ah I got take principles of accounts also then <mandarin>我那个:wo na ge</mandarin> like I feel that <mandarin>很难啊:hen nan a</mandarin> so since English very good then I think like I can utilize <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> skill in counselling you know so I thought like I will apply if I apply for counselling I can utilise <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> strength way better then


ya, then


[orh] you mean that type of counselling ah, so then, so Jerome does it mean that <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> person like <mandarin>他教导你:ta jiao dao ni</mandarin> or what, [orh]


eh but <mandarin>那种:na zhong</mandarin> type of counselling right is not bad the the one the one my mom talk about right was the negative counselling do you know what is that


like that time like like like err hospital like people got problem right they they got anxiety or like <mandarin>他们有:ta men you</mandarin> like psychology issue then they book appointment with the hospital to like


y'know get appointment with the counseller lah then the counsellor everyday need to hear a lot of like negative feedback then <mandarin>他们要:ta men yao</mandarin> like offer you know like <mandarin>一个办法:yi ge ban fa</mandarin> for them


so you won't, so early childhood ah there's those type of counseling like <mandarin>刚才你讲:gang cai ni jiang</mandarin> like <mandarin>那个教导:na ge jiao dao</mandarin> student that one doesn't count as negative


counselling, so <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> still ok lah I feel right, err cause ya during during my <mandarin>我的那个:wo de na ge</mandarin> NS right when when you got like like anxiety about like cause last time in NS I got like err I got eczema issue then I don't know how to deal with them inside NS then got this counseller they they they put and they they they let you like you got any NS problem right like any person like they feel like in NS they cannot cope


then <mandarin>他们让你:ta men rang ni</mandarin> like talk to <mandarin>那个你的:na ge ni de</mandarin> problem lah then <mandarin>那个人每天听很多:na ge ren mei tian ting hen duo</mandarin> negative <mandarin>的东西:de dong xi</mandarin> lor then then after that he will he or she will like offer <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> solution <mandarin>给你:gei ni</mandarin> then


ya, oh ya I wanted to ask you ah like before before we get into <mandarin>那个那个东西:na ge na ge dong xi</mandarin> I I wanted to ask you like err


where err when are you enlisting to NS, next year when you finish your poly eh


[orh] <mandarin>四月:si yue</mandarin> ok that's that's nice, so, err <mandarin>毕业:bi ye</mandarin> ah I mean after <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> I mean I don't mind to go to your <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> like <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> graduation ceremony right but after that we can go eat lah or something


#Yio Chu Kang# ah I think I only go like <mandarin>一两次:yi liang ci</mandarin> eh


#Ang Mo Kio# hub I think <mandarin>一两次:yi liang ci</mandarin> only lor, like for work, I think the most that I go to right is <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> area <mandarin>那边:na bian</mandarin> lor like near my <mandarin>我的那个:wo de na ge</mandarin> house <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> area got like


that one I more familiar with because if I got nothing to do right I usually won't go <mandarin>去:qu</mandarin> like all the way to #Yio Chu Kang# lah, okay wait so just now you were asking me what about NS


so <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> NS <mandarin>第一天的:di yi tian de</mandarin> experience lah, okay so err maybe I can tell you some like, not really say like okay is considered like information


so when <mandarin>你去:ni qu</mandarin> NS <mandarin>的时候:de shi hou</mandarin> maybe you will like you know understand like <mandarin>要做什么:yao zuo shen me</mandarin> lah so but it kind of depends like what PES you go to though


err most more singaporeans mine was PES B the most most like <mandarin>新加坡人:xin jia po ren</mandarin> right when <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> first <mandarin>去:qu</mandarin> NS <mandarin>的时候:de shi hou</mandarin> right most of the time <mandarin>他们是一定给你:ta men shi yi ding gei ni</mandarin> like either err PES A or PES B


so, so so assuming assuming that <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> before enlistment right <mandarin>你没有:ni mei you</mandarin> <mandarin>你没有:ni mei you</mandarin> declare any like medical information and <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> medical history like <mandarin>你没:ni mei</mandarin> declare sometimes hor <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> like example <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> declare but <mandarin>他们觉得:ta men jue de</mandarin> like <mandarin>那个东西不喜不不不是很:na ge dong xi bu xi bu bu bu shi hen</mandarin> serious like <mandarin>不是很严重:bu shi hen yan zhong</mandarin> you know then they will just like put put <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> all the way at PES B lor because that's like ninety percent I think


cause <mandarin>你讲:ni jiang</mandarin> oh <mandarin>我有我的:wo you wo de</mandarin> skin <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> like rashes but then but then <mandarin>他们觉得这个是:ta men jue de zhe ge shi</mandarin> small problem then okay so assuming that everyone is at PES B then majority will go to Tekong I guess then we need to like then on the first day <mandarin>他们会给我们我们那个:ta men hui gei wo men wo men na ge</mandarin> green IC then after that we need to we we put our stuff not really put our stuff we bring our stuff


then after that they give us extra <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> extra like black bag !wah! <mandarin>那个很重的:na ge hen zhong de</mandarin> then after that another bag for like you know all the extra stuff cause one is your <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> field pack then <mandarin>另外一个是:ling wai yi ge shi</mandarin> the one where it has all your like you know like your boots and your uniform and like your cap and everything then you will you will bring for like I think <mandarin>很久:hen jiu</mandarin> like


err like <mandarin>你的你的:ni de ni de</mandarin> Coy ah <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> Coy <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> like <mandarin>好像你的:hao xiang ni de</mandarin> area <mandarin>那样:na yang</mandarin> where like everyday <mandarin>你会在那个地方:ni hui zai na ge di fang</mandarin> like you will be sleeping there for


for like example like <mandarin>你的那个:ni de na ge</mandarin> confinement week for like two weeks then you gonna be there so obviously <mandarin>你要般你全部那个东西你要般你全部的东西去:ni yao ban ni quan bu na ge dong xi ni yao ban ni quan bu de dong xi qu</mandarin> like <mandarin>那个地方:na ge di fang</mandarin> what then after that you got your own bunk ah


if you understand


mess with <mandarin>那些:nei xie</mandarin> medical officers like cause they take it very seriously lah so <mandarin>如果你真的:ru guo ni zhen de</mandarin> like got problem right then you will go to the medical the MO lah beside the medical officer then you will declare like oh <mandarin>讲:jiang</mandarin> like <mandarin>讲:jiang</mandarin> any issue that you have


, (uh huh)


ya, okay


okay but okay <P2>Jerome</P2> you know like <mandarin>他们也是有:ta men ye shi you</mandarin> like <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> guideline that <mandarin>他们要:ta men yao</mandarin> meet so I think it's kind of balanced because like <mandarin>如果他们:ru guo ta men</mandarin> like example <mandarin>那个人:na ge ren</mandarin> like <mandarin>他真的生病:ta zhen de sheng bing</mandarin> right or like legit super ill then the person like <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> medical officer <mandarin>他又:ta you</mandarin> like don't give the he doesn't give the MC like the medical certificate like even though like <mandarin>那个人是真的生病:na ge ren shi zhen de sheng bing</mandarin> then he will Kena eh if like anything happen to the


so it's not say like <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> super strict also but they will of course <mandarin>他们也是会:ta men ye shi hui</mandarin> check for <mandarin>那些人:nei xie ren</mandarin> that you know like <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> Geng you know like they like they purposely fake just to get the, the MC but more or less


ya they, ya <P2>Joel</P2> you are correct ah <mandarin>他们会:ta men hui</mandarin> doubt <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> recruit ah but <mandarin>他们也是不可以太过分:ta men ye shi bu ke yi tai guo fen</mandarin> cause if anything happen to <mandarin>那个人:na ge ren</mandarin> right <mandarin>他们会:ta men hui</mandarin> like accountable you know


okay so err, ya so during my my first day there was ya the the part where you have to where is in the hot sun right then <mandarin>你要:ni yao</mandarin> carry <mandarin>那些东西:nei xie dong xi</mandarin> it's is very difficult lah then they also never give like any water break before you even like <mandarin>搬那些东西:ban nei xie dong xi</mandarin> back to <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> bunk <mandarin>的时候:de shi hou</mandarin> so because there's like so many things you need to carry right


and because of the sun is like very easy to get heat stroke so need to like <mandarin>小心:xiao xin</mandarin> when you carry the stuff then in the hot sun you need to like check whether you got the correct shoe size whether your your uniform fit or not then after that <mandarin>他们会在:ta men hui zai</mandarin> like <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> one place right one parade right check whether you got all the items inside your


bag like, err I mean there are some places that have shelter but the sun, the sun like <mandarin>应该会:ying gai hui</mandarin> shine through <mandarin>一些:yi xie</mandarin> places <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> mah like it's not like hundred percent you know like some areas like example got a tree blocking then some people lucky


and they never get they never get until the they never get hit by the sun ah but <mandarin>一些人:yi xie ren</mandarin> like <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> not so lucky, then the sun will shine them lor because you need to check your field pack whether like <mandarin>你有他们的:ni you ta men de</mandarin> field water bottle then whether <mandarin>你有:ni you</mandarin> like whether <mandarin>你有:ni you</mandarin> like the the shoe polish example like if you never receive inside your field pack then you need to sound off then inside your your field pack they also give you some like example toilet papers for you to last throughout <mandarin>那个两个星期:na ge liang ge xing qi</mandarin> so like you you make sure that you got receive everything


err ya I think <mandarin>两个:liang ge</mandarin> toilet paper then but of course <mandarin>你有带一个你自己的:ni you dai yi ge ni zi ji de</mandarin> bag ah but some people recommend <mandarin>不要带:bu yao dai</mandarin> like <mandarin>这样多东西:zhe yang duo dong xi</mandarin> because on <mandarin>那天:na tian</mandarin> right <mandarin>你已经有两个黑色的:ni yi jing you liang ge hei se de</mandarin> black bag that you need to carry so if you so for me I bring my own bag because I didn't expect them to give any toilet paper so I got my own toilet paper plus <mandarin>他们给的:ta men gei de</mandarin> extra lor


I think I <mandarin>带两个:dai liang ge</mandarin> or <mandarin>三个:san ge</mandarin> then if you plus their one then you got like four or five then of course the usual nail clipper shaver all these <mandarin>你自己要带:ni zi ji yao dai</mandarin> but inside their their like you know like <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> daily kit <mandarin>他们也是有给一个:ta men ye shi you gei yi ge</mandarin> shaver so it's like it's not so bad lah but


shower time I guess five minutes, okay <P2>Joel</P2> I think now I ask you question okay


okay so okay so when does your holiday start, starting in a


oh ya <mandarin>你的那个:ni de na ge</mandarin> FYP, [orh] I see then usually for <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> poly right <mandarin>他们有:ta men you</mandarin> like <mandarin>半:ban</mandarin> semester right I mean <mandarin>半个半年:ban ge ban nian</mandarin> is like err FYP final year project then <mandarin>另外一半:ling wai yi ban</mandarin> right is internship is your one also <mandarin>一样:yi yang</mandarin> or what


the COVID, you mean the <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> COVID ah, oh so <mandarin>你们:ni men</mandarin> so <mandarin>你们:ni men</mandarin> by right is also err first half of the year intern then your second half FYP


, oh because there wasn't a intern, so ended up <mandarin>你们做两个:ni men zuo liang ge</mandarin> FYP project


(ah) that's a that's a, ya that's a lot, why I guess it's okay ah


yes, I see okay lah I mean double FYP right actually <mandarin>真的:zhen de</mandarin> not so bad lah because if not <mandarin>你没有:ni mei you</mandarin> intern you also got like half a year don't know do what so like they just change to two project lor


intern


intern ah intern was like ok lor like very tiring it's like <mandarin>八点:ba dian</mandarin> and all the way to five, so it's like a normal normal like a working experience actually <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> working right <mandarin>是有点:shi you dian</mandarin> flexible because sometimes when the is a photographing is a photography company so for <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> photography company right you take pictures for like primary school <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> like err kindergarten <mandarin>那些小学生:nei xie xiao xue sheng</mandarin> ah


and all this like <mandarin>小学生:xiao xue sheng</mandarin> right they, they need like a class photo for example graduation then the kindergarten <mandarin>他们会拿那个:ta men hui na na ge</mandarin> graduation hat plus <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> graduation scroll then <mandarin>如果他们的拍照是:ru guo ta men de pai zhao shi</mandarin> like nine AM then <mandarin>你们:ni men</mandarin> nine AM <mandarin>要到那个地方:yao dao na ge di fang</mandarin> lor to like <mandarin>拍:pai</mandarin> take a picture for them


the pay was like err I think for <mandarin>每个:mei ge</mandarin> intern <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> basic or average <mandarin>应该是:ying gai shi</mandarin> five hundred six hundred but <mandarin>我有点忘记:wo you dian wang ji</mandarin> lah but is more or less like that amount


ya I mean they are not paying much ah but the thing is <mandarin>你也不需要帮他们的:ni ye bu xu yao bang ta men de</mandarin> company <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> just need to like <mandarin>做他们的:zuo ta men de</mandarin> basic then <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> company <mandarin>有一点:you yi dian</mandarin> profit I mean <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> profit <mandarin>不是全部给你:bu shi quan bu gei ni</mandarin> lah but you help them with the the the the primary school like they buy the class photos right then of course they earn a big amount then you you will get five hundred to six hundred for helping <mandarin>一点点:yi dian dian</mandarin> for helping <mandarin>一点:yi dian</mandarin> so it's like not so bad


okay so, ya, so before <mandarin>你去:ni qu</mandarin> NS eh


nice <mandarin>除了:chu le</mandarin> travel leh, work part time, then, play some games relax chil


that's nice, so, nope


nope, but I got, err no also because well I I don't really <mandarin>很喜欢看:hen xi huan kan</mandarin> movie ah because like need to waste the money unless you mean like <mandarin>看:kan</mandarin> at home still okay but <mandarin>如果我要看:ru guo wo yao kan</mandarin> at home right mostly I watch like drama and stuff because <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> watch drama <mandarin>也是:ye shi</mandarin> free mah then don't need to waste money you know then like then the money you can use for other things like for example like we can like buy food


you know buy our favourite drinks, favourite drink you know my favorite drink <P2>Jerome</P2> it's you know <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> bubble tea


which brand ah okay so it's actually a very long like not really is is I wouldn't say a long story but it comes a long way from <mandarin>哪一个:na yi ge</mandarin> brand right <mandarin>我先喜欢:wo xian xi huan</mandarin> right after that it changed to this final brand but


what is what's your favorite brand


okay so what's the branch or what's the brand, Hollin, how how how do you spell that sia, H O L L I N <mandarin>我没有听过这个:wo mei you ting guo zhe ge</mandarin> brand like I never hear of <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> brand before sia


okay uh, yes


so is like


oh <mandarin>巧克力:qiao ke li</mandarin> pearl, you know how to say mango green in Chinese


okay, ya, ya so you know this is why right I don't spend money on <mandarin>这些:zhe xie</mandarin> movies


cause <mandarin>你懂:ni dong</mandarin> movies <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> expensive then <mandarin>如果:ru guo</mandarin> I don't spend on the movies right I can buy like other things like for example we bought like <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> game then we we bought like <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> game on Steam right then we also sometimes we can like order <mandarin>一些:yi xie</mandarin> food err order <mandarin>一些:yi xie</mandarin> drinks you know


then, err no I should be the one asking you that like how often do you order cause just now <mandarin>刚才:gang cai</mandarin> right I talked about my NS service now I want to ask you since you are the since you are the ordering expert like <mandarin>这边:zhe bian</mandarin> over here


(uh huh)


[orh] five six hundred dollars per month ah, so <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> five six hundred per month <mandarin>是你妈妈:shi ni ma ma</mandarin> pay lah


I see


platform fee what does the <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> platform fee mean leh


ya true sia <mandarin>他们这样:ta men zhe yang</mandarin> they cofirm earn a lot of money one


I guess that's how you put it, so, okay so then you you why have you decided like whether your NS right you want to go like


the PES a or PES b, you want to, but if you want to do office job right you know that you need to have something that <mandarin>你要:ni yao</mandarin> declare <mandarin>不然他们:bu ran ta men</mandarin> by default right <mandarin>他们放你在:ta men fang ni zai</mandarin> PES b but you you you but now you are like healthy right like you are healthy like <mandarin>你没有:ni mei you</mandarin> like any problem right


healthy in terms of like <mandarin>你没有:ni mei you</mandarin> any illness or anything lah, back problems ah but is it is it like <mandarin>很严重:hen yan zhong</mandarin> or what


so it is it like <mandarin>严重:yan zhong</mandarin> or what, what does that mean, then that means what cannot like carry <mandarin>很重的东西:hen zhong de dong xi</mandarin> ah or what


ya it doesn't look it doesn't look <mandarin>很明显:hen ming xian</mandarin> you know what I mean


I see I get it, so there's like <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> stress <mandarin>在你的:zai ni de</mandarin> back <mandarin>上:shang</mandarin> lah


but does it like <mandarin>那个医生有讲什么吗:na ge yi sheng you jiang shen me ma</mandarin> like example you cannot carry heavy things or, then did they say anything you need to like like <mandarin>去:qu</mandarin> so like take take note of


so I I so I still think you can carry like <mandarin>很重的东西:hen zhong de dong xi</mandarin> lah I don't know I don't feel like they will, like look like they will think of it as like <mandarin>一个很严重的:yi ge hen yan zhong de</mandarin> issue


but we can see how it goes, ya that one ya a lot of people watch before <mandarin>我也是有看过:wo ye shi you kan guo</mandarin> ah like I watched <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> movie before


ya I thought you watched before like <mandarin>那个很久就有了:na ge hen jiu jiu you le</mandarin> right that movie, (uh huh) <mandarin>那个我们:na ge wo men</mandarin> like ya we watch already


!wah! you mean like <mandarin>有一个:you yi ge</mandarin> part two ah or what, second one


[orh] so it's like <mandarin>你不看第一个:ni bu kan di yi ge</mandarin> but you will still understand <mandarin>那个第二个的:na ge di er ge de</mandarin> movie is that what you are saying


oh I see, because last time I think I don't know I watch with who already ah <mandarin>可能忘记:ke neng wang ji</mandarin> like the first but since I forget already since this now is the second one is not linked I guess it's okay


so like err what are your plans like after you like in NS right like of course in NS you will be focusing on doing their work lah like et cetera then like <mandarin>你做:ni zuo</mandarin> like <mandarin>那些工作了:nei xie gong zuo le</mandarin> right do you have any plans or what you want to do like on the on the weekend or like


you know anything you want to do or like your hobbies for like example you book out ya you know


oh then <mandarin>你没有那个:ni mei you na ge</mandarin> you have got the feel lah


then, but if you in NS leh will you still play like because like you know like now now games nowadays right <mandarin>他们有:ta men you</mandarin> like <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> like a lot of competition lah so nowadays games there's like competition you can go to right so but ever since you you are like not bad at playing like <mandarin>这些游戏:zhe xie you xi</mandarin> like do you think you will still be playing like casually or do you think like you will still be


playing you know <mandarin>这个游戏:zhe ge you xi</mandarin> full time or like like what what are your plans like is it just for you to enjoy like will you still go competitions on the weekends


casual game play, nice nice, and we, we can play like <mandarin>那种:na zhong</mandarin> relax game plays like Fall Guys you know


Teamfight Tactics ah but <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> err <mandarin>那个我不是很喜欢:na ge wo bu shi hen xi huan</mandarin> leh, I'm more of a, I'm more of a Fall Guys <mandarin>那种:na zhong</mandarin> you know


then you play TFT then I go play Fall Guys, okay how about this <mandarin>你玩:ni wan</mandarin> TFT right then after that <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> bored <mandarin>了:le</mandarin> hor after that we go and play Fall Guys together ah


then then if not usually who you play Teamfight Tactics with


(oo) I see


so where where do you usually buy your drinks like example you say you like err that Hollin <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> brand right usually Hollin <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> brand do you like do you mostly like like example like do you like <mandarin>专门:zhuan men</mandarin> like on that day <mandarin>你出去:ni chu qu</mandarin> just to buy that bubble tea or usually you will be at home and you just order like which one do you normally do or will you go out


just to buy a drink, so like, so like <mandarin>刚好:gang hao</mandarin> when you're outside then you buy, will you specifically go out just to buy you know


, sometime I got the craving ah then I just go out just to buy lor, but I don't know I don't know which one is <mandarin>我的那个最靠近:wo de na ge zui kao jin</mandarin> because if I know right I would rather <mandarin>去那个最靠近的:qu na ge zui kao jin de</mandarin> if not normally right is when people go out then ya <mandarin>我顺便买:wo shun bian mai</mandarin> which is like what you said lah


wait but <P2>Jerome</P2> I I don't know how to find out, you help me err find out like which one is the nearest like bubble tea location like <mandarin>在我家靠近的:zai wo jia kao jin de</mandarin> because I know I know that #Bukit Panjang# right <mandarin>那边:na bian</mandarin> got like three bubble tea like the <mandarin>店:dian</mandarin> ah but I don't know whether that is the nearest or if I can go to somewhere nearer because in order to go #Bukit Panjang# right <mandarin>我需要:wo xu yao</mandarin> travel like I think <mandarin>四个:si ge</mandarin> MRT stop


no I I mean, no <P2>Jerome</P2> I don't have a lot of weird habits not that any I can remember of and actually <mandarin>坦白讲:tan bai jiang</mandarin> right I don't go out just to buy a bubble tea is just that right example like I give you <mandarin>我给你一个例子:wo gei ni yi ge li zi</mandarin> lah so like example I went to #Bukit Panjang# to like buy my food example I buy like I don't know like just take Long John Silver for example


then since <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> already <mandarin>在那边:zai na bian</mandarin> right then <mandarin>顺便买我的:shun bian mai wo de</mandarin> drink <mandarin>回来:hui lai</mandarin> lor but if of course there's a nearer one then I wouldn't need to I wouldn't need to <mandarin>买食物的时候:mai shi wu de shi hou</mandarin> then buy the bubble tea like I can buy it without for the sake of lunch like you get what I mean


no no no it means that right because I have to go out to buy lunch then <mandarin>我有一个借口:wo you yi ge jie kou</mandarin> to also be at the location to <mandarin>顺便:shun bian</mandarin> get bubble tea but then <mandarin>如果:ru guo</mandarin> right <mandarin>有一个:you yi ge</mandarin> location <mandarin>很靠近:hen kao jin</mandarin> right that I don't need to go all the way to #Bukit Panjang# right


then I, then example like example not lunch time <mandarin>我也是可以出去:wo ye shi ke yi chu qu</mandarin> ah but then if you if you ask me <mandarin>出去:chu qu</mandarin> just to buy one bubble tea like four MRT stop it's a bit troublesome ah


ya true ya correct


(mmhmm) ya, but but <mandarin>你不是只有一个:ni bu shi zhi you yi ge</mandarin> water bottle meh <mandarin>为什么你有两个:wei shen me ni you liang ge</mandarin> leh


so means


ya I know it's hot, ya that's why, now you know why my house have aircon plus <mandarin>风扇:feng shan</mandarin> right wait your house don't have ah you can install though like I thought <mandarin>屋子:wu zi</mandarin> I thought <mandarin>屋子可以:wu zi ke yi</mandarin> install <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> even though it's expensive lah but you you don't need to <mandarin>每天:mei tian</mandarin> on lah you just on like once like then you on for a short period of time you know


oh ya like that you save electricity bill but eh but Jerome it's a good thing eh because you see ah <mandarin>你没有:ni mei you</mandarin> aircon right then end up <mandarin>你的妈妈有钱:ni de ma ma you qian</mandarin> to like spend on Grab food expenses


wait but your mum needs to save for like example like a lot of people need to save for like their <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> retirement saving no


maybe if you if you cut down the Grab food expenses


wait so normally right <mandarin>如果你们不:ru guo ni men bu</mandarin> order <mandarin>你们是去哪里买:ni men shi qu na li mai</mandarin> is it #Toa Payoh# central


ya that time, that time you told me what <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> house downstairs <mandarin>有一个:you yi ge</mandarin> I remember you told me you went down at like five AM to eat, oh ya, how much


how much, but the five dollar they give like <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> lah, big amount


but then since your house downstairs <mandarin>有那个:you na ge</mandarin> like what hawker centre ah, then then <mandarin>你们:ni men</mandarin> also like don't need to order delivery sia like that


or lazy eat the, true <P2>Jerome</P2> true Jerome true not gonna lie


ya <mandarin>五个六个:wu ge liu ge</mandarin> shop, true, but even if like example <mandarin>你不要吃那个:ni bu yao chi na ge</mandarin> five to six stall then <mandarin>你可以去到:ni ke yi qu dao</mandarin> #Toa Payoh# central is it like within walking distance


then they wait I thought you stay at #Toa Payoh# so you don't stay near the central lah


like quite easy ah from, from my grandmother's house, the there is so good man there got like


there got like so many bubble tea brands and there got a lot of food also there got old Chang-Kee eh, true


true, but they got a lot of food lah they even ya even got old Chang-Kee still got what


burger place, uh


err that's, that's a lot of money ah but <mandarin>他们有:ta men you</mandarin> customer mah


okay here's what here's what I think ah <mandarin>如果有很多人:ru guo you hen duo ren</mandarin> order right then maybe the price is worth it because you know the food might be <mandarin>真的那么好吃:zhen de na me hao chi</mandarin> you know


how good, they butter, !wah!, got garlic or not


soft ah not hard ah right, that's like, medium rare what's medium rare in chinese Jerome


, , eh <P2>Jerome</P2> try try try to add some Chinese


, , oh I see, so it's like very juicy, so so that means <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> like <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> burger right the the what's that what's that the beef ah is it


the beef you can choose from is it well done, well done to uncooked lah or what, medium rare to well medium rare to well well done right


is it because I don't think people do that because <mandarin>很硬:hen ying</mandarin> right


I see, ok <P2>Jerome</P2> now I am going to ask you one question what everyday activity would be a torture if you have to do it for eight hours straight like <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> one shot <mandarin>要八个钟头:yao ba ge zhong tou</mandarin> what everyday activity would be a torture


coding,


oh ya I get that before like <mandarin>很烦:hen fan</mandarin> lor when <mandarin>你要找那个:ni yao zhao na ge</mandarin> small error, ya I also like do a bit of coding is one of my is one of my worse eh you know like <mandarin>我做:wo zuo</mandarin> coding cause it's like so so difficult I don't know how people like code <mandarin>到:dao</mandarin> right like <mandarin>很美:hen mei</mandarin> right then after that the website appear right everything look so neat and tidy


I never, never heard before


I see ok so you want to know for me what everyday activity would be a torture if you had to do it for eight hours straight for me right is standing yo, ya


you know, cashiering jobs ah err nope but I got work as <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> waiter before like err after I finish <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> O level, I got work as a waiter but even that one ya


, then what happen


, I see


[orh] okay so do you want to know why I hate standing, standing up


two hour no but <P2>Jerome</P2> <mandarin>我讲的是:wo jiang de shi</mandarin> you know two hours is actually not so bad eh but then ever since right I work as a flyer distributor right <mandarin>我真的很:wo zhen de hen</mandarin> hate standing sia


to deliver ah and the <mandarin>纸:zhi</mandarin> is quite thick you know, so last time in back when secondary school <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> CCA <mandarin>我有站:wo you zhan</mandarin> like three to six ah that one ok lah not so bad at most like a bit <mandarin>酸:suan</mandarin> only then after that when you suddenly go to flyer distributor and work right need to stand from


ya is very tired that means they got give you like I think five minute ten minute break for example you want to get a I mean five minute break <mandarin>你要买一个饮料:ni yao mai yi ge yin liao</mandarin> or example you need to go to <mandarin>厕所:ce suo</mandarin> then they will let you


they will let you go ah but then since since you you have to download their GPS app right the info tech right <mandarin>他们可以:ta men ke yi</mandarin> check <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> location to make sure that you are not slacking off, doing work


ya eleven to three but other than that and <mandarin>那个整个四个小时:na ge zheng ge si ge xiao shi</mandarin> you need to stand lor


not really <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> more or less right err most some people are very nice they take <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> flyer and some people they try to take like one or two more because <mandarin>他们知道:ta men zhi dao</mandarin> right <mandarin>我们需要:wo men xu yao</mandarin> hit <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> minimum quota so example we got two thousand four hundred flyers right <mandarin>他们需要我们至少:ta men xu yao wo men zhi shao</mandarin> right clear at least err eighty percent


of <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> flyers and they made it very clear in the Whatsapp group right <mandarin>他们讲:ta men jiang</mandarin> we cannot throw away <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> flyer ah because <mandarin>他们有那些那个地方的那个:ta men you nei xie na ge di fang de na ge</mandarin> CCTV then they also they also got like people like checking on us like spot check you know spot check and like people the public will also know and inform for example if they see a person


like not doing their job or setting a bad example in public such as throwing, ya that time on the Stomp right <mandarin>有这个:you zhe ge</mandarin> also from the same company <mandarin>的他们:de ta men</mandarin> go and throw the flyers then sit at the HDB void deck


ya, because, err they <mandarin>坐在那边:zuo zai na bian</mandarin> to talk lor because like that they also get money what then <mandarin>他们以为他们:ta men yi wei ta men</mandarin> throw <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> flyer <mandarin>在那个:zai na ge</mandarin> dustbin right


err nobody will know but even if the even if <mandarin>他们不:ta men bu</mandarin> check <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> CCTV right still got eyewitness ah then they go and take photo, of the people sitting at the void deck


nope, of course like


you know the pay, you know, you you know the pay, is ya ya, is, it's not a I don't I don't <mandarin>不觉得:bu jue de</mandarin> is like <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> for like the amount of effort you need to do because you need to like sweat so much


unless unless <mandarin>你你自己觉得:ni ni zi ji jue de</mandarin> like you don't mind standing or like if <mandarin>你觉得:ni jue de</mandarin> like <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> legs <mandarin>你的脚不会:ni de jiao bu hui</mandarin> affected then you can continue standing up


if you get what I mean, ya but I think even if I never wear right like I wear big shoe right confirm also will pain ah


okay how about we talk for err, one more minute until it hits uh four fifty, four fifty four, four fifty four, okay we talk until four fifty four AM okay because just now after we clap right


it was three fifty two, eh three fifty three, okay okay one more minute, do you drink, the, do okay one more minute do you drink coffee Jerome


you don't like the


even if, even <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> add <mandarin>糖:tang</mandarin> eh, you also don't like, coffee, oh so


so you don't go like err example <mandarin>你没有去:ni mei you qu</mandarin> like Starbucks, all these ah, but isn't frappuccino considered like coffee


I see, menu, okay, okay so are you going to <mandarin>去吃饭:qu chi fan</mandarin> now


okay, okay see you


so what course are you thinking of trying to apply


isn't that just website design


I also learn coding <P2>Joel</P2> but my coding <mandarin>真的不行:zhen de bu xing</mandarin> sia, you know on my first year in poly year, my coding the grade they give me right it was a eight credit module


the it's just HTML I got a D, a D D means err just pass <mandarin>我刚刚及格而已:wo gang gang ji ge er yi</mandarin> eh


Joel but you know counselling can <mandarin>赚很多钱:zhuan hen duo qian</mandarin> one last last time when I in primary school right I not so <mandarin>乖:guai</mandarin> one lah I always caused trouble so they always bring me to counselling room


ya then I talk I talk a lot to the counsellor lor, ya he was he was like <mandarin>我的教练:wo de jiao lian</mandarin> lah like my coach life coach


he also share with me about his job he the pay is <mandarin>不错:bu cuo</mandarin> eh, you mean for those mental illness kind lor


I suggest you go do early childhood counselling, more easier


so so there are different types of counselling lah, I never knew sia


should be somewhere next year, graduating in one more sem in April lor


ya <P2>Joel</P2> we can go eat eh it's at since it's at #Yio Chu Kang# <P2>Joel</P2> do you know what are the some good food spots there, you confirm got go to #Ang Mo Kio# hub one lah


#Ang Mo Kio# hub there <mandarin>最好吃的东西:zui hao chi de dong xi</mandarin> only, the korean barbecue there lor


how was your first first day experience


maybe you can tell me what you did on the first day, so what was your PES


I see so what do you pack when you first entered, the camp


two kilometre ah


so have you do you have any funny stories with the medical officers there


they always very mean to them, so what he tell me right you know how if you go visit the medical officer and say that err you are you have <mandarin>你肚子痛:ni du zi tong</mandarin> you know normally they will give you injection to err to help your stomach pain right


so err he can so let's say err, your injection is err one ML, so if the if the MO <mandarin>真的很:zhen de hen</mandarin> bastard right <mandarin>他会把:ta hui ba</mandarin> err he will split it up zero point five ML on one side of your butt


so so instead of one injection they give you two just to mess with you


that's what I heard they always doubt the recruits whenever they try to do anything


ya they will be accountable for it lah


so you do this you do all these under the sun


toilet paper ah how many rolls did they give


then <mandarin>你带了几个:ni dai le ji ge</mandarin> roll sia


how was the shower time like, five minutes


sure, my holidays starting in a week


ya my final year presentation finishing Tuesday the teachers still debating whether he want <mandarin>五点还是四点:wu dian hai shi si dian</mandarin> lor


for me because of the current situation there's not enough intern jobs and ya the COVID ya the COVID lor


by right ya but by left we I do two FYP projects, ya because there wasn't intern opportunities


ya <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> lor <mandarin>本来是一个:ben lai shi yi ge</mandarin> one then suddenly end up two, but the but the good thing right is is the system quite relax


my so far my both projects quite relaxed, ya


two project is fine lah but <mandarin>我还是比较喜欢:wo hai shi bi jiao xi huan</mandarin> if the two project was just one so the two FYP become one whole project


of course lah who don't want the intern got pay eh then you can put on your resume some more, so <P2>Joel</P2> how was your intern you wanna share your experience


what do you do


so how what was your pay


five hundred <mandarin>到六百:dao liu bai</mandarin> the pay not bad what


that's not bad what like that <mandarin>不错:bu cuo</mandarin> sia you just take a few picture you get money, hopefully we can travel I want to visit Japan at least once before NS


travel other than travel maybe work part time lor, work part time lah <mandarin>我需要钱:wo xu yao qian</mandarin> sia


and ya just play game chill, so have you seen any new movie after circuit breaker two, after phase two


do you plan to see any movie


what's your favourite drink


Share Tea, my favourite brand is one that you may there's they only have one branch here in #Toa Payoh#


it's called Hollin, yup Hollin the H O L L I N


so the the best part about that brand right they have different pearls different flavours of pearls available every single day so Monday will have a different flavour from Tuesday


but they will have a classic so their classic there is a honey white pearl, and their on Sunday is strawberry, if you want on Saturday is chocolate pearls so it's very interesting you can try a lot of new flavours


the best the best drink there is their mango green tea


the price is like ok lah four dollars five dollars standard


speaking of ordering food how often do you order food delivery


for me because of the COVID situation right and because of my personality <mandarin>我很懒惰:wo hen lan duo</mandarin> lor so err as much as possible I try not to leave my house, so I will just order a lot so my monthly spending on like Grab food right it's like five six hundred


it's really <mandarin>很高:hen gao</mandarin> lor


ya it's ya she pay for our meal lor, but, ya but back then Grab still had a plan for the delivery there's this free delivery plan


but now they changed it they try to take advantage of the situation to earn more money sia, but now they they brought the the plan back but then they added some terms so now need to spend like <mandarin>十八块:shi ba kuai</mandarin> then you only get four dollar off


the delivery fee and they start to charge the platform fee sia, platform fee is like any transaction you make they will take like twenty cents


imagine right now the COVID situation right and there are like <mandarin>千多个每天都有千多个人在叫:qian duo ge mei tian dou you qian duo ge ren zai jiao</mandarin> Grab food that twenty cent right <mandarin>他们赚很多:ta men zhuan hen duo</mandarin> sia


they milking us eh, we are like their cows


I wan a PES C I want to do office job


you may never know, right now I have back problems lor


but it's those common type lah, it's err scoliosis, it means your your back is curved your spine


ya that's why when you see me right you see me a little hunchback


it doesn't look so obvious lah but is got the hunchback, ya <mandarin>但是:dan shi</mandarin> you can feel the stress on your back ah


err, they bring me go do X ray lor


err don't have leh they never say anything else


speaking of err just now when we talk about movies right you know I recently went and watch you know Train to Busan


you know the the zombie it is about zombies ah


ya the movie was the first movie was like four years back, ya there's a prequel or sequel I forgot but the movie the second movie is unrelated lor


ya <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> lor, no need to really watch the first one just watch the second one can already


sure go ahead


on the weekends if if I were to come out, if I book out probably want to lie down at home, lie down rest play game


for one week never play game you know


I think if I'm in NS I will just play for fun casual game play


I like those game plays where it's more relaxed, or we can play Teamfight Tactics


I find it very enjoyable, Fall Guys ah


it's ok you buy we can play Fall Guys together then we play TFT together


can also <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> ah


if not I will just play by myself, now we rarely rarely talk


because everyone has their own group already, Hollin


usually when I buy is always <mandarin>顺便:shun bian</mandarin> on the way, on the way I'm going somewhere or come back then I buy lor, ya lah <mandarin>刚好:gang hao</mandarin> lah


err I won't lah, really you will travel


if it's me right I will just <mandarin>叫外卖来:jiao wai mai lai</mandarin> lor, find out what


so you can drink bubble tea for lunch only


this is why you can always order them online


a new filled one that's why my mum will always scold me she always say, my fridge got a lot of ice water bottle we got a lot of bottle to put ice water you know <mandarin>新加坡这么热:xin jia po zhe me re</mandarin> need cold water <mandarin>要不然:yao bu ran</mandarin> really cannot make it sia very sweaty you know right now the degree right it's like thirty it's damn hot even though the forecast say that there's like there's gonna be like rain or some there's gonna be more rain rainy weather cooler weather


but, you lucky lah, my mom don't install aircon


my mum is more scared of the electricity bill rising


it's more like we <mandarin>没有:mei you</mandarin> save much, ya we don't save much


I mean she saving from CPF already ah the government saving for her


true, but right now, I don't think we can afford to save


my house downstairs got a hawker center that's why I went to eat the mookata


eat the Mee-Hoon-Kway !wah! that one damn shiok eh <P2>Joel</P2> they opening in one hour it's like err five dollars there's like three dollar four dollar five dollar


five dollars is big bowl !wah! that one <mandarin>吃到爽:chi dao shuang</mandarin> sia


ya got hawker centre, you you eat the food until very Sian already


you cannot keep eating cause once whenever you go to a hawker centre right you will straight away find the the food that you like and then you will only stick with the food that you like and then you limit your choices so even though there's like twenty plus shop right realistically right there's only like five or six shop that you always go


cause err <mandarin>适合你的口味:shi he ni de kou wei</mandarin> ah, so I eat those five to six stall right until until very Sian already

where your mother was twenty five she already was married and was having kids I was like !wow!, then, daddy I'm just a failure


yeah failure because in my <mandarin>高级华文:gao ji hua wen</mandarin> I got D seven I was I was literally just a failure


, yeah


I really think is it I think you worry is like <mandarin>中那个:zhong na ge</mandarin> lisa <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> blackpink you know, , if not you don't know blackpink, is the yeah the korean ah


what is it ah, what are what are they, oh yeah there because they're you know they're an idol group because they never do any work, (uh huh)


so funny, that's true, yesterday yesterday my friend came over my friend worms and then she was like, oh have you heard of blackpink and then they were they said no then


err like err <mandarin>打开那个:da kai na ge</mandarin> YouTube and then she just, played their videos for half an hour straight, we just watching the dance and we're just like oh we dunno who these people are


if, it's okay it's it's quite cute she likes lisa a lot hi lisa


don't tease her, !wow! you really you really disgusting and


you know what, , ya it's true, , so proud of it look at me, , yeah yeah oh !wow!


you very rude to me, , you hurt my feelings, yeah now you have to like <mandarin>摸摸我的头:mo mo wo de tou</mandarin> and like say oh I'm so sorry


, it guess I am that's that is who I am the #char siew bao# of your dreams, like you know like a like a like the <mandarin>嫦娥:chang e</mandarin> with the mooncake but I'm not <mandarin>嫦娥:chang e</mandarin> with the mooncake I am the #char siew bao#


#char siew bao# is a is a okay listen we we've discovered two things about me number one,


, remember like, in you know when they said <mandarin>炸弹:zha dan</mandarin> and it's like fried egg but it's also <mandarin>炸蛋:zha dan</mandarin> mean like <mandarin>炸:zha</mandarin> your <mandarin>蛋:dan</mandarin> like a bomb


I bomb you to death, , yeah it's because it's because it's a bomb, but you you are the bomb,


please don't do that, well yeah


and I I was also talking to Wong because Wong is from err, SCGS primary [right] then, you didn't know that either anyway nobody else knows who this person is so


also err I was like, where I I was remembering err one time somebody in the courtyard then <mandarin>他跟我讲:ta gen wo jiang</mandarin> err this person is #gurmit singh#'s daughter but she's in primary school then I was like


so , yeah but like, we should tell people that yeah anyway, it's just irritating


yeah I think it's it's it's not really <mandarin>害羞:hai xiu</mandarin> I think it's more like, people will ask her like oh, can you get fann Wong signature, can you get this can you get that then she'll be like the fuck


yeah actually it's very funny or not, yeah, so, that was nice, and she was like yeah correct


yeah yeah that's the correct response, so how's your garden


, (hmm), what you do ah, err, , think mostly we just sat in the room and we talk a lot shit


I think, also ricky gets this thing where she goes down a rabbit hole she was like oh let's watch another video let's watch <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> let's watch <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> let's watch another video so you know she kind of like, did that for a while there are somemore then she just then she sat down


I didn't think, yeah girlfriend weird, yeah, yeah so apparently like also err wayne is


yeah, and then err, err so I think she's trilingual or or I mean yeah or like quadrilingual or something lah because she has burmese and she has english and


chinese because she took chinese but she also got malay friends because she went to the neighborhoods schools so she also knows malay then I was just like !wow!, this person cannot be trusted to not eavesdrop in any conversation


I mean I'll always used my language abilities for usage of being, power


yeah <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> superpower, I'm the powder muff girl


, , I'm just gonna like, find your ball, because that <mandarin>滚:gun</mandarin> too


!wah! so smart and so talented I'm just, , so far only, the three uncle


yeah it's true but also rare I don't know because I think she is err, malay I mean I know she's malay but I I don't think she will be I don't think she will collecting the chinese with you know I mean because is


kind of very violent to like make a brown person listen to like, chinese speckle that singlish for like an hour and transcribe it and it's very irritating, yeah man


it's like you know the time when I went to the Caipng place and then the uncle was like, what you want eat and I was like err <mandarin>这个那个这个那个:zhe ge na ge zhe ge na ge</mandarin> and then it feels like oh


yeah then he laughed at me


, and the oh man I can't even be <mandarin>大姐:da jie</mandarin> I'm like no one I really don't identify


oh !wow! I don't know, I really don't know why that's, I don't know what the the semantic difference is but I feel attacked all the same, I'll just lie down


then after that you just become me [right], then you become <mandarin>没有:mei you</mandarin> because <mandarin>没有问题:mei you wen ti</mandarin> ha, that's right that's the way <mandarin>我为:wo wei</mandarin> <mandarin>我很多问题:wo hen duo wen ti</mandarin> actually <mandarin>我很多毛病:wo hen duo mao bing</mandarin> ah sorry


, yeah, I you very conscious of it now, conscious of the something <mandarin>因为你有毛病:yin wei ni you mao bing</mandarin> that's why


well oh I see ah okay then your <mandarin>背痛:bei tong</mandarin> is what !huh!, yeah lah


something about <mandarin>病:bing</mandarin> ah correct lah , (mmhmm), I mean yeah I guess so well, I think it's okay I just need to like find my inner Ahlian and you know my inner Ahlian the one that's like


yeah its baby G and she's just like, what what did you what did you say, yucks


you've never had you've never had a <mandarin>妹妹:mei mei</mandarin> in your life you literally never


yeah, yeah


oh !wow! this is like a sad sob story from like, you know one of those, those local novelist and they'll just like oh <mandarin>以前的时候啊:yi qian de shi hou a</mandarin> like very sad then my mother never take care of me then my father left her house to buy bread but later he come back and then after that my sister run away <mandarin>离家出走:li jia chu zou</mandarin> I'm very sad ah then I mean I will have to do all the laundry about myself


yeah there's there's you right now you are like this self-pitying person, but it's okay you always like, you didn't complain, and you worked hard, and also you're way younger than like both of your siblings so you're basically


a substitute only child, , you know, you don't have the doctor about her sex life either


oh please don't, don't play my papa mama


oh I love it yeah I love it when like you know #ah bengs# and they're like oh don't play mother you play mother , oh


that's true I only know like one #ah beng# and he's very cute and is not really an #ah beng# and he drinks a lot of beer, yeah like a tiptoe taller #ah beng# you know Tabing


tiptoe Titabeng, , I tried to call it a neuter, , who will say that


it's yeah, <mandarin>你去:ni qu</mandarin> japan <mandarin>那个时候:na ge shi hou</mandarin> did you ever speak mandarin, or was it


(uh huh), yeah but actually <mandarin>那个是一个:na ge shi yi ge</mandarin> fallacy lah because, honestly [right] nobody in singapore's mother tongue is chinese


except for people who are first first generation immigrants from china, but in all my mother tongue's hokkien I can tell you that for sure


then she'll be like #kiotio gulan# oh not sorry that's that's teochew i think that's teochew I'm not sure, (uh huh)


yeah, 哦


the I dunno maybe you're just like , this is a sad child yeah, ,


oh no, oh


that's not even teochew, cantonese, I recognize it from the five tone


I see if that's we're more useful than , #dong ju sai kai jun# which is you're stopping the world from turning, , it's like you know when you <mandarin>挡住:dang zhu</mandarin> somebody then they're like #dong ju sai kai jun#


, (hmm), but like that says way more about like the speaker than the whoever is


yeah


, you <mandarin>你知道:ni zhi dao</mandarin> why mah it's because it's your mother tongue, , touches your mother's soul


yeah, I want to say very rude but I'm not going to cause I'm a lady,


you know I I dunno I forgot I was going to say something like <EX2>mother fucker</EX2> something I don't know how to fit in so here we go, yeah, oh !wow! it's true


or is it <mandarin>明鸡:ming ji</mandarin> I don't know is it <mandarin>聪明大聪明鸡:cong ming dai cong ming ji</mandarin> you can't say <mandarin>聪:cong</mandarin> you know like how


that's a lot to live up to man my name just means jade times two


yeah yeah because, because <mandarin>我出世那时后:wo chu shi na shi hou</mandarin> [right] my mother was like oh, I want something that sounds like, marilyn so my so because , my father <mandarin>不会讲话华语:bu hui jiang hua hua yu</mandarin> so I'm so my mom just didn't try very hard with the mandarin name so she just just like oh


let me set let me get something that sounds like marilyn says radiant and I looked it up and both characters for ri and lyn mean, jade jade and I'm just like, I'm jade jade


yes I'm the moon moon of the chinese world, it's a pretty name but also it doesn't mean anything just like me


I mean I mean I don't really want to be a <mandarin>美女:mei nv</mandarin> because that's like gender you know what I mean like <mandarin>我要做漂亮人好看的人:wo yao zuo piao liang ren hao kan de ren</mandarin> ah you know like


it's fine I said it for you because I'm your girl


that's right, no please don't he's such a, he's such a good boy, he's a <mandarin>同性恋:tong xing lian</mandarin> but he's a good boy


they they really, yeah, oh !wow! you're so condescending right now I love it this is my kink


that's true yeah this like that's why I'm, everytime I talk to you I'm like in a low level of arousal,


what the !aiyo!, oh <mandarin>回来啦我的:hui lai lah wo de</mandarin> arousal boy, you're my arousal source now that's all I do it's not porn is just you !wow!


the, oh ricky is like my err like my sex toy you know like you are my porn and ricky is like my sex toy so together they form voltron no I don't know what they form


yeah look at me explaining purely platonic I mean purely, purely wholesale concepts with a very vulgar metaphors


I would love that actually, err <mandarin>今天:jin tian</mandarin> I'm going into the no


, I thought that I was gonna go and write some stuff but it's already almost noon and I think


I don't think that you know, I can do that anymore cause, I need to write when nobody's awake, and since I everybody is like waiting for me to finish this recording so nobody is awake I mean nobody is asleep anymore and feel very stressed out


yeah, is like you know (ppc) writing like a maniac that's what I want


yeah, but you know now that I'm older, sorry man, , it's true


I mean I guess like that's very sad to say of dementia patients but like of


in general if you're a <mandarin>孩子:hai zi</mandarin> but you grow old and you are still a <mandarin>孩子:hai zi</mandarin> it's like you're an old child, and you're like helpless, but old, and it's not cute anymore


yeah, is like, it's like once you have tasted freedom


you would, you cannot finish the sentence, I don't


actually is not really my <mandarin>性格:xing ge</mandarin> is more like you know when god was making me he has like or she was like damn


this one is just too perfect I just gotta add in a little bit of spice to fuck it up and I was and the power puff girls were born, power puff girl


well what about what about if I was, this is, is, you know this is this is a tone policing


I'm gonna say this free speech free speech free free my speech at the same time, you know what do you think that where the researchers were putting up this study they accounted for people with only one brain cell because


like you can talk a lot of nonsense but it's not gonna make any sense, oh


(uh huh), bold of you to assume that <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> conversation <mandarin>会有一个:hui you yi ge</mandarin> somatically coherent theme ha ha


oh man I I I'm just thinking about prettyface song now and like she's was just like a smart brand where all the all the boys


on the boys brought to the yard by my bread that's basically what she was saying I dunno, yeah, I see the picture, of your parents behind you


yeah, yeah yeah <mandarin>他们是我的我们的:ta men shi wo de wo men de</mandarin> guardian angel, oh northeast, peek a boo


oh I see okay tell me about your, about


(uh huh), ah <mandarin>我是:wo shi</mandarin> little mary <mandarin>小笨蛋:xiao ben dan</mandarin> that's my codename

in like one fell swoop because, part of my wait, yes, I am <mandarin>确定一个笨蛋:que ding yi ge ben dan</mandarin> but I didn't also, don't


I also spent a lot of chinese class just zoning out because I was like why am I here, you need to <mandarin>画画:hua hua</mandarin> on it then then I was just like oh, and I I


yeah <mandarin>以前的时候我很:yi qian de shi hou wo hen</mandarin> naughty, pictures of people


fucking amazing it was just


and then me and my friend will be like today let's do it again


no you can't use the tape because the tape is square you have to use the liquid, no


oh <mandarin>其实我们的是那个:qi shi wo men de shi na ge</mandarin> reverse because I don't, do, I didn't do correction liquid until I was much older then my my parents were like oh now you can handle the liquid


I think the tape is easier for you to use first so you use the tape, then after that I graduated to liquid then I was like !wah!, so shiok ah, actually is is I mean is also why to this day I dunno how to use correction liquid


I will squeeze like a whole bunch out then I was like oh that's too much, definitely yes, my girlfriend, but it's okay


I would I forgive her for it, , like, this is adult crime no lah because also, I was like why don't you just cancel nobody's gonna see it you know but also she feels very obsessive about it so she's like okay I mean she won't say <mandarin>不可以:bu ke yi</mandarin> she'll be like no


no we have to return this way then I'll be like, you know what is your planner it's your life, meanwhile I'm still trying to figure out how not to do this on every single page of my planner or because I don't know how to use a planner


only with the help of my friend lisa


you know that err the blackpink singer <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> lisa is actually, her name is actually lah lisa


yeah, so she, err became a trainee and then so she


yeah so is like really the definition of like, oh I dunno what I don't know what I was trying to say but she was she she was she became


she had to leave home, and go out and like, you know travel the world and become famous at the expense of being lonely


I want to die right now, yeah well I mean, that's also true, yeah


oh well not really as in ricky will watch the documentaries over and over again and I'll be like, you know I'm just absorbing information by osmosis and then so now I know the songs like by heart even though I I don't know what they say but I kind of know like


the the melody and the tone and whatever, yes, yeah <mandarin>就是这样:jiu shi zhe yang</mandarin> yeah it sounds exactly like that yeah (ppc) and then so I'll be I was like sing along to it then she'll be like how do you know the song then I'll be like


you have been playing it for the last two months, yeah, just playing and playing and playing, so


yeah but apparently, even after that she doesn't get the full song and I'm just like, so I've been, I've been accumulating all this knowledge for you, please take it back


, you like that [right]


oh okay, when is the party happening, , ,


err I have been beaten at my own game how the tables have table, er


you know, !wow! am I a leech what's going on


, that's right that's right that's right


blackpink in black back pain in your area


oh, yesterday, a <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> like err <mandarin>我们去那个:wo men qu na ge</mandarin>


it's a song that goes like #nunu nana#, this, yeah <mandarin>这也是韩国的:zhe ye shi han guo de</mandarin> but


so cause wayne is from myanmar so <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> was like, Nunu, and Nana <mandarin>是痛:shi tong</mandarin> so #nunu nana#


oh I love it for was this with what their company wanted multilingualism for everybody


world language err, that's true


so I guess they're just gonna hire more interns, there's the solution, to everything, (uh huh)


no, sometimes it's about the reality of having


a show stuck inside, (hmm), (ppc) and then you have to deal with like the fact that you have to call the hospital and be like yo wife I tripped I tripped and fell


yeah and then, yeah and then like got stuck and I was just like oh man sorry


I just have a very magnetic ass, that's who I am and who I was meant to be


I, okay okay, okay okay okay so


err, remember that show, so we've finished the show because there's only 5 episodes and


so they will tell <mandarin>他们会教那个:ta men hui jiao na ge</mandarin> you know like the people <mandarin>怎么:zen me</mandarin> conduct a conversation so, right so they will sit them down they'll like okay you have to ask the girl about what she likes because girls also like to talk about themselves so you'll have to be like how about you


what is your favorite animal for joy, what is your favorite animal


well, no I have to


bear <mandarin>因为我很:yin wei wo hen</mandarin> unbearable,


yeah, (uh huh), oh <mandarin>我我会:wo wo hui</mandarin> , I


no <mandarin>其实其实:qi shi qi shi</mandarin> yeah <mandarin>他们也是:ta men ye shi</mandarin> <mandarin>他们也:ta men ye</mandarin> prepare <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> for <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> , what is the word, possibility you know, I mean


err I mean I guess


that'll okay because I understand that I shouldn't watch ouran high school host club because it's mature and has and it's a bad taste, and I was just like oh


I love you very much, so it's okay we have difference but only slightly yea, so cute a movie


yeah, and they mean well but I think also people tend to, condescend to them, and they'll be like oh you know just because you don't really


read social cues then you know you are kind of like oh then, they don't treat them with the same amount of like I guess interest or respect [right], yeah


yeah I guess so


, yeah yeah, yeah because also like for the longest time I was wondering oh you know what of people with like down syndrome for example like can can they because I know it's also kind of like a spectrum [right] is not like a one size fits all thing


so, like


and I'm just like yeah like is that okay you know if you, oh I mean, is it okay to date somebody extremely stupid is like you know also the the related discourse because some some people are just just dumb they're not neuro divergent [right]


so like if you say oh you know like you are unfairly advantaged I guess you know if you, if you date somebody with down syndrome or something, they're and like you know you can say the same for like then you can only date people as far as you you know what I mean


so yeah, yeah, where the line is


yes it's true


yeah is, it's true yeah and I feel like maybe a large part of my life, , you know while, you know I spent it on so many


lame ass people that I was supposed to be dating and I didn't just go out and just live my life without somebody, by my side, yeah


yeah, yeah


, yeah


, I, I mean, like the older I get the more I'm also like oh maybe it's not you know <mandarin>也不是一个坏事:ye bu shi yi ge huai shi</mandarin> if like it's a an arranged marriage because like


I also I have also come to the conclusion that, it's not what, is not really like what it is it's more like what you make of it you know so


like if you go into something and like this was me, like for a huge part of my life [right] so I go into something and I'll be like okay I'll be done with this within like a year or something like it's not gonna be a permanent situation and it wouldn't be you know because I wasn't


like I wasn't putting any stock in the longevity of the situation it just is, yeah lah so, mean, it's like that, like a lor like it


it however you see it that's how it will become, ya lor so I think maybe we should arrange a marriage for you


!walao!, it's,


yeah yeah you yeah you, you will never gonna give her any <mandarin>孙子:sun zi</mandarin> anyway so it's totally fine, yeah, yeah


but she wants so many, oh yeah <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> ah


oh yeah, that is also a possibility yeah, !aiya! <mandarin>我认为:wo ren wei</mandarin> like <mandarin>有孩子:you hai zi</mandarin> it's just, it's also like your whole life has to be


about <mandarin>其他人:qi ta ren</mandarin> you know instead of just like yourself and I hate I hate that I am a selfish bitch I'm like, I I came to this earth to do one thing and wasn't


take care of you was to take care of me, and err I mean, yeah


dunno lah, maybe, yeah lah, like <mandarin>想法:xiang fa</mandarin> but, I don't, think that, in this current climate as well you know we can afford to be anything but


selfish in that way, you know what I mean, like, yeah <mandarin>我就是那个:wo jiu shi na ge</mandarin> extinct extinction of the human race


I'm rooting for us to die out, yeah


yeah, yeah, and <mandarin>其实我们的:qi shi wo men de</mandarin> yea


well then like yeah it's just like you know your whole face has been black blackened and bruised by capitalism and you're just like oh


but is true and it's like I think also the fact is we have been thought that there is no other way to live like oh capitalism like <mandarin>不是完全完美的:bu shi wan quan wan mei de</mandarin> but you know there's still some


some like it is still the best one out there is still the best model for living and I'm just like this is a blatant lie, you all are just, no man, people are starving janet


, yeah


, yeah, yeah yeah it's true he'll be he'll be like oh they will evolve in next four thousand five thousand years and then we just never did we just


concentrated making things go fast, ,
