full house ah but other all the other customers is like locals ah or or what, [orh]


interesting I don't think locals will like eh but maybe just they just go for the experience ah like <mandarin>他们没有地方去了:ta men mei you di fang qu le</mandarin> then is like nowadays got COVID, then just anyhow <mandarin>看:kan</mandarin> lor then <mandarin>看到有这个:kan dao you zhe ge</mandarin> then just <mandarin>去:qu</mandarin> lor is it like that


, oh then okay lah I think is a worthwhile worthy experience to <mandarin>去看看:qu kan kan</mandarin> lor


seems like <mandarin>没有什么东西的吃了:mei you shen me dong xi de chi le</mandarin> russian, interesting sounds good


oh so means he will not go back for the food again lah just err go back for the experience, oh, but the next time if <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> were to come with <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> girlfriend then how


(hmm) there's no more one for one deal ah, [orh] just ala carte lah then I think okay lor you can just try out the other stuff on the menu


!huh! [orh] means <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> friend <mandarin>已经在:yi jing zai</mandarin> where #sim lim# tower #sim lim# square there, then like buying APC then ask if he wants to buy APC also, is it


oh he expected #sim lim# to open until err midnight ah not midnight at night lah


[orh] then what what was his friends err reply


ya like maybe <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> friend <mandarin>已经:yi jing</mandarin> plan <mandarin>好:hao</mandarin> everything <mandarin>了:le</mandarin> then maybe only got one set of the equipment then suddenly you want to just come in and get one more set then like


[orh] <mandarin>他每次都是这样的:ta mei ci dou shi zhe yang de</mandarin> lah no choice he like living in his own world then like people talk to him then he assume different thing then don't want to ask, no choice lor, but still good lah the the friend bought for him


!wah! but is the PC already done, ya


ya sometimes it's just very poor planning and poor execution lor, oh actually is can be done lah but then far distance some more he he's very unstable then very hard to to carry out ah


[orh] ya lah safety lah if not later his his whole PC drop on the floor then <mandarin>他自己也是飞掉:ta zi ji ye shi fei diao</mandarin> then !aiya! no point lah


so don't just take this risk ah, , ya that's a that's a sign of <mandarin>他睡着:ta shui zhao</mandarin> lah


then ya lor, but if he sleeps straight still okay lah like like doze off a bit a bit, !wah! what if he he just like err just doze off then his head to a side !wah! that one


I think he will just fall off the bike then he also don't know he will just sleep on the road, (hmm) no choice lor he got say he buy his PC <mandarin>多少钱:duo shao qian</mandarin> or not


one thousand plus maybe the specs different lah like the specs normal one lor


I think three zero six zero is a very old model eh, I think is the, is the the processor, the maybe like I seven but three zero six zero then which means is only third gen leh


I think nowadays is like seventh gen already, so maybe it's quite old ah but also okay lah for the price thousand plus, ya it seems like he's getting scammed ah cause three zero six zero is definitely not a


not even close to the newest model it's like quite old already, and then he still say is very good so I don't think that's the case,


but this one is like the guy build everything from scratch, so it's not very nice


[orh] ya to to see his err desktop lah that that he bring back today, (hmm) ya lor we can see how lah then see the specs


and then err see if you want to build one over there also lor, but for me I will not go back ah because I already have and some more I can


I I I I don't say I can build myself lah but I can just modify a bit lor like I see what parts I need then I can just go and buy and just fix it in, so I actually don't need to build from scratch ah


ya you must have time lah and <mandarin>那个精神去:na ge jing shen qu</mandarin> go and manage all these lor, it's like if you just want a functional computer I think you just buy from the shop is better but if you are general really interested in all this and if you like want want to play games then ya lor maybe you can consider building ah and you got time like you got holiday all can lah


part time job don't have lah now it's just err


two weeks of holiday only lah so cannot do much, but maybe can since it's the end of the year then can go gym lor gym a bit, then see how ah, ya continuous dreaming I was thinking of like switching up my routine from three days to like


five days ah, then


which I think okay lah then if the results you get, is much more then I think is worth ah since now also holiday nothing to do then just go and err take this time and maximise all the results lor


specific goal in mind ah err for me I I don't look at the weights lah


just err, I would say lah !huh!, it's like if (hmm), it's more of aesthetics lor just <mandarin>好看而已:hao kan er yi</mandarin> lor, then (hmm) ya lor so don't need to really really go and lift so much weights ah just functional healthy I mean not uh <mandarin>好看:hao kan</mandarin> healthy can already lor


so I I I, I saw this new err training plan ah so like basically last time we were using the, the full body one mah, so it's like err <mandarin>一天做:yi tian zuo</mandarin> then <mandarin>一天:yi tian</mandarin> rest but when <mandarin>你做的时候:ni zuo de shi hou</mandarin> is like the whole body <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> so you do everything upper lower body


all in once ah, then now is like err, I think instead of <mandarin>全部做到完:quan bu zuo dao wan</mandarin> we can like split a bit lor so split into like upper body then lower body then legs so it's like, like just these three exercises lah then we like split it up lor


, (hmm) and it's more like err because if we were to switch to like five days ah then is like just one exercise one one body part every day every week


then I think <mandarin>不够:bu gou</mandarin> lah cause like if you for example monday you do do chest then you throughout <mandarin>那个礼拜:na ge li bai</mandarin> then you only like do one set of as in one day of chest, then is like the other days is like just do other thing then somehow <mandarin>你那天做了:ni na tian zuo le</mandarin> chest then you are like very tired also then you cannot


finish the the workout cannot do effectively ah, so I think like we just split them up lor, like maybe like two two chest workouts per per week, then I think it's better ah like that


what do you think, ya


and <mandarin>不要:bu yao</mandarin> overload also lah, cause if you just squeeze everything into one day then <mandarin>肯定:ken ding</mandarin> overload mah then you feel very tired already like your your first set, then ya lor you don't have the energy then <mandarin>也是要回家了:ye shi yao hui jia le</mandarin> then you feel very Sian


then like oh a bit no point lah but if we were to spread out everything equally then is like, for that day itself then we can spread out more exercises lor then it's like fresh for every exercise then is like more effective you can do all the way then you feel better lah also not so tired like


your muscles already like <mandarin>很累了:hen lei le</mandarin> then <mandarin>你还一直去:ni hai yi zhi qu</mandarin> push push, then is like not say also ah like you cannot go all out then you also cannot get the best out of the the gains, then like <mandarin>有一点没有意思:you yi dian mei you yi si</mandarin> lah


ya lah joint pain <mandarin>的话:de hua</mandarin> eh once you recover is very long one if you if you were to get injured, so I think spread out is better lor, like throughout five days also can, but now we


last session ah last session I think we did legs right ya I think very tired, but is I think is not also not very effective also because we cannot lift like heavy weights, so is like err, more of just fatigue ah that kind of tired it's like running that kind of tired not like the muscle building that kind of tired


I don't know what what do you think


[orh], ya <mandarin>我也是一点点:wo ye shi yi dian dian</mandarin> lah but it's more of like fatigue that kind of, of pain leh it's like after you run two point four I think you will feel the same also lah you sit up stand up all got problem is that kind of pain you know it's not like


very effective lor in in like generally


tear <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> ah so what do you you want to stay back to this routine like, err the rules stay lah like <mandarin>一天一天:yi tian yi tian</mandarin> we focus on chest then <mandarin>另外一天:ling wai yi tian</mandarin> it's like legs like that


oh I think is kick because like you seldom, target, ah seldom train legs also not say seldom train legs lah but like , how to say ah it's like ya you never really focus like you just do all the compound exercises only then after that is like uh plus you cheat also lah like using some other body parts all these is like


more concentrated after you do the compound is like really breakdown already after the squats and deadlift, then you can do the uh leg press and all


oh but okay lah chinese new year <mandarin>都要到了:dou yao dao le</mandarin> then got excuse to buy more new clothes lor, right so I think <mandarin>刚刚好:gang gang hao</mandarin> lah, not say every pants cannot wear but those that are tighter then you can buy new one to replace lor chinese new year


then from there then you continue to gym then you can just wear already lor, !aiya! I think this year


this year the chinese new year gone liao lah, it's like now I mean since last year, last year the chinese new year is already like, the is is just starting of COVID lah and is already quite bad already then now I don't think is still the the peak yet of the the whole thing so I think by chinese new year won't recover lah then visiting also limited


so think we can just turn to E #ang pao# lor, ya what do you think


I won't say is guaranteed lah because err E #ang pao# is more like you need to know how to use your phone mah then maybe some of your older relative <mandarin>他们不会用:ta men bu hui yong</mandarin> phone then also no point, then they also don't know how to send E #ang pao# then you just ah never mind lor don't send lor


then maybe you get lesser #ang pao#, socially acceptable ah I don't think it is lah but


because now is like got the COVID and everything, then it's like safer lah but err must see lor if it's the if you are giving the #ang pao# of course you want to visit more mah like you pay already not say pay already lah you like give #ang pao# then you want to ask question then you want to talk to whoever you give the #ang pao# to if not now is like you are just paying money for you you don't even know who who's receiving it


as in you know lah but you never even talk to them don't know how they look like and what they are doing now then like just giving money away only ah, so I think like err, E #ang pao# is okay only now lah but I don't think it's something that will last into future maybe like if got video call all these but also not very physical ah video call some is like err it's like zoom lectures now ah not very err intuitive ah not very physical then like you also don't know what's going on


ya something like that lor


[orh] ya lor, ya lor ya lor it's not like those like normal house visits anymore ah is like really you just pay for the airtime then like during that airtime of course you will squeeze a lot of questions one mah it cannot be like just doing your own things then suddenly when questions pop out in your head then you ask like like a normal house visit lah like <mandarin>你每次去:ni mei ci qu</mandarin> relative <mandarin>的家:de jia</mandarin> then <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> just like <mandarin>看电视:kan dian shi</mandarin> or just like play mahjong then <mandarin>赌博:du bo</mandarin> or what then after that they got questions then they will just eh how's your how's your uh results ah or everything then they will just suddenly ask mah they won't like straight away go into the house like go into your house then when open the door then they give you #ang pao# then they start bombing all the questions you know like must slowly ease into the the context ah but with E #ang pao# now is like really really err a paid interview lor


like you just take the #ang pao# then you are you are prepared to answer a lot of questions something like that lah


[orh] I think err, ya lah chinese new year is all about flexing a lot of things lor showing off, it's like a chinese tradition ah it's no choice one, like you not even for singaporean lah for for everybody even malaysian, like because my my grandparents are from malaysia so it's like err some some of them are also like that lor some relatives they like to just compare lah and contrast but in in singapore context is like


err they talk about err army know when you remember when you were in army then they will ask you like eh where did where do you go did you go to err OCS you go SCS things like that you know and they they will just look look down on on people that that didn't go in command school and things like that but I think it's a bit pointless lah


and besides army then err another question will be ya [loh] like what you say education lor cause really there's nothing much ah, education then see like how your how your results then err you got go into any good schools or not and things like that


and also lastly will be ya lor <mandarin>你几时要结婚:ni ji shi yao jie hun</mandarin> lor like all your marriage all these ah so it's just if you were to break it down I think it's just the few questions they will ask ah and if you just prepare for this few questions I think you can just go anywhere to visit lor so not much of a problem


and for me personally, I don't have such problems lah because like most of my most of my relatives are in malaysia so they compare in a different scale lah like it's not relevant lor their questions to me, like they will just err


have different views lah like they just talk about their business maybe then like err but most of them also not really educated so they cannot compare education lah because ya they're not even there in the first place they don't know what's going on they don't even know like what classification is there then maybe they just talk about cars lor like


cause in singapore hard to own cars mah but malaysia is like uh everybody owns car lah, but like what kind of car lor is it better is it worse, then like things like that lor is it first hand second hand or or what lah so like doesn't really impact me much


so I don't feel the the competitive err err pressure lah going on, so for me it's quite chill lor I just go there then they like give me drinks then interact with, with them then maybe play games and things like that lor so it's it's quite nice ah for me I like the visiting a lot


with this err aspect


no lah I think you are you are worrying about the wrong thing lah, cause I think when your parents gone then you will have your own family already you have your own kids your grand kids then you'll be like you have your own family within yourself lah it's like if you say you want to be close with your ah your cousins after parents gone then you just take a look at your parents ah are they like communicating with their cousins and and things like that lah you know like it's very hard mah maybe like their siblings only lah


and like closer family


okay lah I think


is like cousin mah then is some is close ah if close then okay lor <mandarin>你可以去跟他们讲话:ni ke yi qu gen ta men jiang hua</mandarin> all these then if like not close then <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> if <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> force <mandarin>了也是:le ye shi</mandarin> no point mah then because people are competitive because they know each other like <mandarin>你不懂你的:ni bu dong ni de</mandarin> cousin then <mandarin>突然间去跟他:tu ran jian qu gen ta</mandarin> compare like <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> kids all these then I think is like very bad also lah like no point lah like chinese new year <mandarin>你只是要去:ni zhi shi yao qu</mandarin> flex <mandarin>去:qu</mandarin> show off all all your things but normal day you don't even talk to your cousin


then I think ya lor not very nice ah what do you think


[orh] ya if you talk about things like that then of course they they will add value lah and but this kind of thing is like I think, (hmm) you must be close to them also lor since young I think it's a bit late now if you want to, start to interact err with them but if they are acceptable then I think it can be done lah


then instead of asking their relative they can also ask their like colleagues mah or friends you know so don't really have to go to cousins ah so I think don't have to be so worried lor but if like say you and your cousin like manage to like land the same job or like be in the same industry then maybe there's like something in common lah then you all can start to to talk lor then maybe be closer


or maybe like you say you go your relative house to play games then ya lah if they play then <mandarin>你们可以一起玩:ni men ke yi yi qi wan</mandarin> lor then I I think that's what I do also lah like just <mandarin>去:qu</mandarin> relative house then just play game together with my cousin nowadays is like that mah nothing much


then ya lor maybe you err can explore this and hopefully your relationship with your cousins will be better what do you think


oh, oh is it nice


(uh huh), !wah! but


[orh]


ah ya lah I mean is different shops mah #lok lok# is like comfort food like just <mandarin>去吃爽:qu chi shuang</mandarin> then like, like just eat with friends then it it's not not supposed to be filling lah but like it's like nice lor snacks lor this just kind of thing, while KM's is like


Prata place lah right Prata is like you can you can order is more filling lah Prata is like <mandarin>填饱肚子:tian bao du zi</mandarin> that kind ah #lok lok# is like <mandarin>吃爽:chi shuang</mandarin> one so I think it's a different thing but is it nice the #lok lok# over there


oh, okay lah I mean, ear together with them lor or what where where where's the place at ah


(uh huh) CK [orh] CK the coffee shop ah, the one with the <mandarin>有一个:you yi ge</mandarin> fishball noodle the chicken rice stall at the side that one ah, oh, just open right I I tell you one right at that time


then okay lah just, once in a while lor once in a while go and eat okay lah but I haven't tried for maybe I'll try next time


[orh] I think is like that one ah #lok lok# no choice lah


not bad leh still got <mandarin>麻辣:ma la</mandarin> but is is it like can <mandarin>你可以选要:ni ke yi xuan yao</mandarin> boil <mandarin>还是要:hai shi yao</mandarin> fry or like


err, [orh] because usually err #lok lok# store <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> fry or boil mah then depending on what you order lah like sometimes if I lazy then I just fry everything


then like even broccoli also go and fry then like <mandarin>吃到来怪怪的:chi dao lai guai guai de</mandarin> lah but, it's still just follow that thing lor, so I think this one also got boil one ah fry one ah, then after that <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> just <mandarin>放那个麻辣那个:fang na ge ma la na ge</mandarin> sauce lor


ah ya lor <mandarin>是这样:shi zhe yang</mandarin> lah but sometimes it's like <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> lazy to go and <mandarin>分开:fen kai</mandarin> mah you just <mandarin>一直去:yi zhi qu</mandarin> order order <mandarin>一直去:yi zhi qu</mandarin> get then like, you need to separate like some is like <mandarin>什么:shen me</mandarin> cuttlefish all these you need to boil


then sometimes you get like like eggs you can, ya you also boil then you can fry also lah but for me is like, sometimes I I just see lor majority what I get if I get more of those like need to fried one like bring beancurd skin all these then I just also lazy to separate lah then I just fry everything lor then just eat lah okay lah after that it's a bit <mandarin>怪怪:guai guai</mandarin> lah but once in a while


err then I'll get used to it lor it's like your russian food lah, I think still can eat lah edible lah edible I would say


russians also <mandarin>人:ren</mandarin> what although they like plutonium and stuff, err I I think malaysia lah confirm cause there over there cheaper mah right <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> #lok lok# <mandarin>才:cai</mandarin> like err maybe one ringgit which is like three times cheaper ah over than here


some is even like ninety cents <mandarin>而已:er yi</mandarin> their currency over there, (hmm) then like err you can order more lor, right then maybe some quantity is more also I I I have never seen the the one that <mandarin>你们去吃:ni men qu chi</mandarin> lah yesterday


but err I think JB one some is quantity quite a lot lah, so then can just order then it's like the got the street one lah street <mandarin>的有那个:de you na ge</mandarin> van


then sometimes is like err, if boil only one is like I think the ninety cents one lah is the more, traditional <mandarin>比较比较久了的:bi jiao bi jiao jiu le de</mandarin> lah then the van also like


ah then if got the, fry one is like some is like got legit stores ah some is also van but the van is like <mandarin>比较新的:bi jiao xin de</mandarin> then got branding


but I think hygienic wise I think, here will be better lah <mandarin>那边:na bian</mandarin> is like sometimes I see like, not very nice but then <mandarin>不要想这样多:bu yao xiang zhe yang duo</mandarin> ah just <mandarin>买了:mai le</mandarin> then <mandarin>吃而已:chi er yi</mandarin> since fry <mandarin>了:le</mandarin> everything should be should be err


then they got give chilli then quite nice ah quite chill also


ya that is, that is true <mandarin>不用去用:bu yong qu yong</mandarin> logic and <mandarin>想你要吃什么:xiang ni yao chi shen me</mandarin> just <mandarin>拿而已:na er yi</mandarin> lah <mandarin>不用紧的:bu yong jin de</mandarin> what over here is like err you need to think lah which is more value for money ah <mandarin>哪一个吃了会饱哪一个吃了会吐哪一个是吃爽而已:na yi ge chi le hui bao na yi ge chi le hui tu na yi ge shi chi shuang er yi</mandarin> then like ah very Sian you know like keep need to think about all these things not nice lah


like you see food you like then you just take only mah and it should not be so expensive, over in JB ah that that's the case but for here is like maybe more ex lor like the first time I go and eat never think lah like maybe yesterday !huh! <mandarin>你们:ni men</mandarin> just <mandarin>看了:kan le</mandarin> then just <mandarin>拿而已:na er yi</mandarin> but <mandarin>没有去想那个:mei you qu xiang na ge</mandarin> price then after when when the bill come out then oh why why so expensive things like that lah


four forty five PM time to start wrapping up your work day and plan for dinner, things are err generally cheaper mah then <mandarin>你们:ni men</mandarin> just assume lor then <mandarin>没有去看那个:mei you qu kan na ge</mandarin> price also is is is that the case for that time


[orh] <mandarin>是是是:shi shi shi</mandarin> what kind of shop restaurant ah <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> like road roadside <mandarin>的还是:de hai shi</mandarin> shopping mall what


[orh] like like just <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> establishment by itself lah


oh <mandarin>不错:bu cuo</mandarin> mah like like that, I think err it's still cheaper leh than shopping centre if you go shopping centre it's like err, they they got maybe their GST over there do they have GST I don't know but like maybe got service charge lah


and like more expensive road side <mandarin>的会比较好:de hui bi jiao hao</mandarin> lor but maybe the one you go is like more up class lah, or like [orh] the more popular one lor then <mandarin>会比较贵一点:hui bi jiao gui yi dian</mandarin> ah


, [orh] <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> establishment <mandarin>这样:zhe yang</mandarin> lah, ya that that time <mandarin>我也是有去:wo ye shi you qu</mandarin> eh china I go one also some something like yours like that it's quite similar


it's like roadside lah but <mandarin>那个是:na ge shi</mandarin> near <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> campus so it's like, like over there is like all the all the universities one lah so it's like <mandarin>一个一个:yi ge yi ge</mandarin> school district so it's like things there are relatively more affordable I would say, then it's like also <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> hotpot restaurant but it's err


not as up class lah it's just <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> small shop lor, but they got they got put the banner lah the the promotion banner like <mandarin>大大个:da da ge</mandarin> advertisement then is like err I think <mandarin>四块钱而已:si kuai qian er yi</mandarin> per per pot


then it's those ah the <mandarin>四块钱:si kuai qian</mandarin> is buffet eh actually, so you can just go and take whatever the hell you want like <mandarin>进进去他的:jin jin qu ta de</mandarin> fridge <mandarin>拿:na</mandarin> but they they got like err cannot take like


err I think only can take one round, so, like within <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> round <mandarin>你要吃:ni yao chi</mandarin> ah like usually buffets is err you can take err <mandarin>你要你要你要吃几次就拿几次:ni yao ni yao ni yao chi ji ci jiu na ji ci</mandarin> one what right, then this one is like err <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> only <mandarin>可以拿一次:ke yi na yi ci</mandarin> like the first time


they will give you like a red basket, then <mandarin>你开那个:ni kai na ge</mandarin> fridge, then you just take whatever you want lah but <mandarin>一次而已:yi ci er yi</mandarin> you can only fill that basket until full but the basket also quite big ah, and the catch is <mandarin>你要吃完:ni yao chi wan</mandarin> lor whatever you take in the basket if not they will like fine you lah or or what lah don't know lah


but you just take only lor just take take take take then just err eat lor your hotpot I didn't finish lah at at times I went back a few times, so there were times I never finish then the shop owner also see I struggling <mandarin>吃到要死掉了:chi dao yao si diao le</mandarin> then the shop owner say !aiya! never mind lah <mandarin>吃不完就算了不用紧我不会:chi bu wan jiu suan le bu yong jin wo bu hui</mandarin> charge <mandarin>你钱:ni qian</mandarin> then like quite nice also lah


so maybe like, got more flexibility ah maybe you go restaurant then like


so got good and bad lah the street one and the restaurant one


, ya I can hear you know can hear me also right


ya I think so,


(mmhmm),


<mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> lor, russian food at this restaurant called err dumplings are you his Burpple got the one for one


the Burpple I think one for one <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> for fifteen course meal maybe seventy five dollars, got one for one so ya but one for one, no lah seventy five total but <mandarin>一个人:yi ge ren</mandarin> so it's about maybe thirty something but we paid like <mandarin>四十五块:si shi wu kuai</mandarin> lor after GST


, ya the fifteen course meal ah, the fifteen course meal got I think, first they give you like appetiser then main dish and dessert then <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> appetiser <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> like a few soups and some salads


ya <mandarin>有一个:you yi ge</mandarin> vodka shot and err I think russian soft drink and I think got two what you call that, they give you two cups of unique russian drinks


actually <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> entire experience <mandarin>有一点:you yi dian</mandarin> err how to say ah unique ah I cannot say that I enjoy the food there but it's really never try before lor, ya it's like authentic russian experience actually not really lah it's just <mandarin>他给你:ta gei ni</mandarin> authentic russian food lor


but <mandarin>他给我的是:ta gei wo de shi</mandarin> like the first dish that came right is, two the two cold vegetable soup is cold is from the fridge, ya it's supposed to be cold


ice cold, ya <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> soup <mandarin>是两个:shi liang ge</mandarin> vegetable soup inside is all the ya so <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> regret lah cause <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> I don't eat vegetables and <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> soup is just


okay lah one of it was white colour then <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> honestly right it just taste like liquid mayonnaise I not ya it's like mayonnaise but <mandarin>他加很多水:ta jia hen duo shui</mandarin> then you put in the fridge is damn gross it's like <mandarin>酸酸的:suan suan de</mandarin> then <mandarin>有一点辣:you yi dian la</mandarin> lah I don't know why <mandarin>有一点辣:you yi dian la</mandarin> also but got a lot of the cucumber egg


and then you know like the morning dew <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> herb, the desk that green piece of thing ya quite, ya I I drink is just sour and I don't know it's just mayonnaise but they dilute it lah


I think it's supposed to be the russian taste the russian like a lot of sour food ah from what I had yesterday, then the next soup was a beetroot soup, is you know the the red colour like turnip like this, ya also <mandarin>怪怪的:guai guai de</mandarin> lah it's like not what you expect the soup it's like you know it's not chinese is not western or japanese it's just a whole new experience you never thought that food could be taste like that lah


no is is also cold food


ya I ask him to finish, he I see his face eat very funny lah like one look I know already he's like eh sia lah this is not the thing that I signed up for


ya <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> pay money liao then I drink a bit he drink a bit lor, ya ask him clear the vegetables also


ya after the soup, this the sauce tray then like <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> sauce tray <mandarin>有三个:you san ge</mandarin> square

ya that's why I say I should've read the menu before I agreed to eat, okay ah work for him lah but <mandarin>他的脸是:ta de lian shi</mandarin> !wah! shit that's not good


(hmm), ya I I think the stall is run by authentic russian people like the whole family was there


ya, no it's a grown grown man, like, the daughter ya of age also lah, young adult


ya the daughter <mandarin>很美:hen mei</mandarin> sia no joke will return for the daughter but not for the food, they oh <mandarin>我们前面有一个:wo men qian mian you yi ge</mandarin> bell then <mandarin>她一直按那个:ta yi zhi an na ge</mandarin> bell I don't know why ah but, okay lor <mandarin>反正她都:fan zheng ta dou</mandarin> cute then I don't mind lah


like, uh you know everytime they order up then they press the bell then the waiter come and take, but I don't know leh <mandarin>她的手:ta de shou</mandarin> like itchy eh <mandarin>她:ta</mandarin> just press press press then <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> father <mandarin>要:yao</mandarin> grab <mandarin>她的手叫他不要不要:ta de shou jiao ta bu yao bu yao</mandarin> press


he do all those kind of weird stuff you don't know lah


true, true, maybe ah, (hmm) but back to <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> fifteen course meal right generally speaking <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> portions a bit small but you get a lot of different variety like <mandarin>有一个是:you yi ge shi</mandarin> they give you dumplings with a lot of different flavours like dumplings you know usually we have just err pork or chicken the chinese style even japanese style also just pork or chicken but this one got a lot of different flavours


like they have err like cheese salmon I think they have beef lamb then all different colours one looks really err appetising that's like one of the highlights of this fifteen course meal


I ya it honestly look a bit weird lah you know like the shrimp dumpling you eat at the dim sum it has the same shape but it's just now just like <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> different colours, they serve err I think sour cream ah which honestly also make it a bit weird that's why I say russians they like a lot of sour food I think


maybe not to us ah but to them it's a staple ah <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> struggling through the whole meal but maybe they that's what they enjoy


savoury ah, ya very is it's it's more savoury it's dumplings ah it's not ya it's dumplings, , ,


but okay uh overall not too bad lah, (hmm), ya oh ya the appetisers right one of it they call it the russian caviar but it's actually just the you know the we eat sushi <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> orange colour egg


ya <mandarin>那个是:na ge shi</mandarin> caviar ah is it


but <mandarin>这个是一个:zhe ge shi yi ge</mandarin> restaurant leh you're paying like what seventy five dollars per pax on usual lah, they they call it what premium caviar


ya that's why it's it's quite interesting lah like they quite premium but actually doesn't really look very premium


it's a lot of those bar counter small tables <mandarin>那种高高的:na zhong gao gao de</mandarin> table and chairs it's not so much a restaurant restaurant where you sit down eat if you ask me it's more like a drinking place


then <mandarin>前面有一个:qian mian you yi ge</mandarin> russians eh not russian is just <mandarin>一个:yi ge</mandarin> mannequin <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> decor at the like front front doors <mandarin>是一个:shi yi ge</mandarin> mannequin <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> mannequin <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> blond hair I think that's like the russian, err what you call that, the ideal russian woman ah


, correct, I think they also will clear for you lor if you just tell them, I think they cook finish then they like see your thing more or less <mandarin>好了他就:hao le ta jiu</mandarin> bring over <mandarin>了:le</mandarin> then you at that point <mandarin>你可以跟他讲:ni ke yi gen ta jiang</mandarin> you whether you want to eat or not ah


, ya like that, (mmhmm), the main <mandarin>只有一个:zhi you yi ge</mandarin> main course the main course was a meat, shredded meat stew shredded meat and vegetable stew


which is like also one small bowl then you know our typical meat stew is like sauce then <mandarin>有一点:you yi dian</mandarin> salty salty but <mandarin>他们的是:ta men de shi</mandarin> just okay lah the meat stew was also one of the better dishes in the meal but it's just <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> vegetable Zham together I think then they anyhow just mix mix mix #ah bo# say you they grab everything they have and they pour it together


ya, ya then when <mandarin>我们在喝那个:wo men zai he na ge</mandarin> soup <mandarin>的时候:de shi hou</mandarin> #ah bo# <mandarin>讲:jiang</mandarin> the secret ingredient is what plutonium ah <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> radiation


that's what the russians like to enjoy, ,


but it's a, but it's really a unique taste ah you won't you won't find it anywhere else so if you can try I think maybe <mandarin>可以去:ke yi qu</mandarin> try but just know that you will not enjoy it ah but is <mandarin>不错:bu cuo</mandarin> ah unique


[orh] actually is full house leh they they cannot give us like a proper table <mandarin>他问我:ta wen wo</mandarin> they asked us if <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> bar counter okay or not, then <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> just err okay lah because <mandarin>我们两个人而已:wo men liang ge ren er yi</mandarin> what so, still okay lah we had the bar counter other than that full house


ya, I think, err foreign people foreign ya, could be russians could not


, , (hmm) I think so cause they advertise mah is the best russian experience in singapore then you don't really get this kind of opportunities often like to experience other food and culture like singapore you see the so common is just what japanese korean chinese what Prata shop


this kind of like everywhere I can find but if you talk about russian like you don't really know where else you can then Burpple also got the one for one mah so very worth it lor


(hmm), ya #ah bo# <mandarin>讲:jiang</mandarin> is good, I know I saw his message like he he sent his girlfriend, the picture of <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> menu then <mandarin>我问他你不是要带她来:wo wen ta ni bu shi yao dai ta lai</mandarin> lor then <mandarin>你跟我吃了:ni gen wo chi le</mandarin> then you must come here eat the same thing again


then he say like I think I bring her here I won't eat the same thing ah I just go order the desert and the dumplings ah


he say he memorise everything on <mandarin>那个我那个:na ge wo na ge</mandarin> fifteen course meal <mandarin>了:le</mandarin> so that <mandarin>他不会:ta bu hui</mandarin> order, in the next time he come here, as in


(hmm), !wah! then before <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> before <mandarin>我们去吃那个:wo men qu chi na ge</mandarin> restaurant right <mandarin>我们我:wo men wo</mandarin> he got something at school so <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> meet <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> around three


three thirty <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> plaza Singapura, then <mandarin>我们在:wo men zai</mandarin> shop, at err I think one of the local stores there that sell those err local designs, then he suddenly got one phone call he say I think his friend call him call for the the PC thing to build <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> PC


like suddenly <mandarin>跟他讲:gen ta jiang</mandarin> lah then after that I look at him like !huh! you now want to go build PC meh for what then you should have tell me what then I shouldn't have come all the way, ya then, I think in the end he say he just ask ask his friend buy for him ah he just he just tell his friend that whatever you getting just get me one set also


, ya, , I think <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> miscomm they supposed to meet up but #ah bo# like he he did tell me that he's going like when we first met at plaza sing he did tell me that he's going to buy PC


but in the end I ask him !huh! you going to buy PC but <mandarin>我们不是去要吃那个:wo men bu shi qu yao chi na ge</mandarin> russian lor then he said they gonna buy PC at night then like how can cause #sim lim# where got open so late, then suddenly he got the phone call lor, so


I don't know I don't really know how he communicate with his friend ah like, if you gonna meet your I don't know leh I don't know he asked his friend to buy or he gonna meet his friend cause like the friend <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> I think <mandarin>在那个地方了:zai na ge di fang le</mandarin> then <mandarin>问他:wen ta</mandarin> what all the all these kind of questions on what to buy


then #ah bo# just err whatever you getting I just get one also lor, but I think <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> execution very poorly planned leh, then like you also don't know what the guy building maybe like <mandarin>他要:ta yao</mandarin> specialised needs or maybe he don't need that powerful so I think you just ask him buy also a bit weird


(hmm) then then they also what from what from their conversation it seems like they supposed to meet up but then in the end also like <mandarin>他在那边了:ta zai na bian le</mandarin> then he didn't even ask are you coming or not it's just ah <mandarin>打电话给他:da dian hua gei ta</mandarin> then #ah bo# <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> suddenly just say <mandarin>我在:wo zai</mandarin> plaza Singapura <mandarin>走走我等一下跟那个:zou zou wo deng yi xia gen na ge</mandarin> sean <mandarin>去吃:qu chi</mandarin> russian


I think his friend also must be quite shocked ah like !huh! we not going to build PC meh now you tell me you at plaza sing ah


ya then after we eat the russian I think, (hmm) I I think after we eat the russian he, he suddenly ask, ask me eh we can go pick up the PC or not you think the PC you can carry home or not


you want to hold the, PC while riding the bike sia, I think so lah that's why he want to last minute collect then I keep asking him lah like your friend drove leh why he cannot just bring back for you


then he like give all kind of weird weird answer lah like what very troublesome he also need to go and pick up from his friend's place then like his friends stay at #bukit batok# what then he just go #bukit batok# isn't it better than you go back to #sim lim# then he can collect it tonight also you don't need to wait until tomorrow when they close


ya, ya that's why I told him cannot lah I tell him straight to his face if it's #wee kit# can he got a lot of experience carrying all these all these kind of weird stuff on motorbike then you cannot


ya lor, ya he quite offended also like eh !huh! why he can what I cannot ya lah then I tell him lah he very stable, I think on the way back he also like almost <mandarin>睡着:shui zhao</mandarin> sia I feel his helmet like <mandarin>一直:yi zhi</mandarin> <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> helmet


ya ah <mandarin>危险:wei xian</mandarin> leh, eh actually quite cheap leh I asked him he said err only one thousand plus only


and he tell me it's like ya everything in like he he even say like err I think what I forgot what was the thing about three zero six zero I don't know ah he sound like it's the latest thing like that the way he said but I actually don't know what he talking about


I don't know maybe he getting scammed, , , , ya


that's why I say like I don't know eh is he actually getting scammed I don't know


for #sim lim# also very dangerous mah especially we don't we don't know about computers, so maybe, ya but this one


, I think the , ya the shop <mandarin>可以帮你:ke yi bang ni</mandarin> build, correct actually <mandarin>我那时也是:wo na shi ye shi</mandarin> wanted to buy a desktop <mandarin>只是我家没有位而已:zhi shi wo jia mei you wei er yi</mandarin> so maybe I can go over later to see lor, see his desktop


ya just now I told him already err now you got computer you can just go your house play comp play games everyday lah


(hmm) ya if he's like reliable and he never get scammed maybe you can go back and build


I think built from scratch also different kind of experience like, sounds fun is sounds fun lah but when you got issues that time then you cannot troubleshoot then you also don't know what to do then a bit


ah, ya so I don't know


, but holidays ah speaking of holidays <mandarin>你有没有:ni you mei you</mandarin> find any part time job <mandarin>还是你在驾:hai shi ni zai jia</mandarin> Grab


new years new year's resolution continue gymming, five days five days five day <mandarin>不是很多:bu shi hen duo</mandarin> lor like


true <mandarin>你有什么:ni you shen me</mandarin> did you set any target that you want to hit like I know #ah bo# he set already he want do like maybe think hundred fifty for bench then maybe two hundred for deadlift that's like his goal, do you have a specific goal in mind


(hmm), , you know usually <mandarin>我们每次:wo men mei ci</mandarin> (mmhmm) ya you go ahead


you will focus more on one day uh and then like other days <mandarin>你可以做别的东西:ni ke yi zuo bie de dong xi</mandarin> since like, you still recovering, in a way


so I think that's better,


<mandarin>我每次:wo mei ci</mandarin> suffer from <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> like the first few sets <mandarin>我会:wo hui</mandarin> go, heavier than I think what I should do ah like ya I can lift the weight lah but after that <mandarin>我就很快就没有力了:wo jiu hen kuai jiu mei you li le</mandarin> then like the rest of it I struggle and maybe like even cheat my way through ah then


like in a way also I guess like starting to have joint pains ah here and there so <mandarin>比较好:bi jiao hao</mandarin> lor maybe you will not get injured so easily I think that's better also


how the last session you want uh you go ahead,


really ah for me very effective eh I feel my, like the next day right actually not really the next day ah like after I shower <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> thighs <mandarin>跟:gen</mandarin> calves <mandarin>还有我的:hai you wo de</mandarin> butt <mandarin>都:dou</mandarin> burning eh like until now <mandarin>我还有:wo hai you</mandarin> muscle ache I cannot walk properly I cannot run properly


I will go out to stairs sit down stand up <mandarin>都有问题:dou you wen ti</mandarin> eh


right, like for me <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> effective leh like usually after two point four I just feel like vomiting lah but after <mandarin>我们那天的:wo men na tian de</mandarin> leg exercise this is like the


it works


I think <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> just follow <mandarin>你们吧:ni men ba</mandarin> everything I think it's just as long as you like don't cheat, it should be okay lah but I'm just saying that the legs one <mandarin>真的是:zhen de shi</mandarin> quite kick, but then


train (hmm)


, I think <mandarin>我们也是:wo men ye shi</mandarin> must put a set a limit like <mandarin>我们不可以:wo men bu ke yi</mandarin> gym <mandarin>太多:tai duo</mandarin> if not we need to go and buy new clothes again like recently I think I try my some of my new pants that I found not really new ah it's like <mandarin>很久没有看到了:hen jiu mei you kan dao le</mandarin> then it just suddenly resurface then <mandarin>我去:wo qu</mandarin> try


then like <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> quite a few pants the the thighs and the legs <mandarin>有一点紧了:you yi dian jin le</mandarin> so maybe need to buy new [ones] so bad I think gym too much is also a bad thing


(hmm) you think this year the chinese new year, you think how do you think visiting will be allowed, after all we still in the middle of COVID


E #ang pao# ah not bad eh E #ang pao# like <mandarin>你可以:ni ke yi</mandarin> just send <mandarin>他你要多少:ta ni yao duo shao</mandarin> then now like you don't have to worry like last time you know chinese new year <mandarin>我们去:wo men qu</mandarin> visiting right sometimes we just nice missed the err previous family you don't get to see them then in a way it's like you got one less #ang pao# but now you can just send E #ang pao# and request from everybody you know one shot


so like guarantee you have more money is that is that correct


(hmm) but besides the aspect of <mandarin>他们会不会用:ta men hui bu hui yong</mandarin> do you think is rude do you think is socially acceptable for you to just request E #ang pao# from them


the way you say it's like it becomes more of a paid interview lah like <mandarin>你跟他要钱:ni gen ta yao qian</mandarin> then after that <mandarin>他会:ta hui</mandarin> interview <mandarin>你几个:ni ji ge</mandarin> questions <mandarin>先:xian</mandarin> like how <mandarin>他会问你:ta hui wen ni</mandarin> you you pay this lump sum you get to ask this kind err <mandarin>你要几时结婚有没有老婆:ni yao ji shi jie hun you mei you lao po</mandarin> how's your studies


ah becomes more like a paid ya paid interview already right


(hmm) so personally are you a fan of err visiting during chinese new year like I know for a lot of friends like they don't actually err eh so to speak as enjoy err visiting because <mandarin>他们会被:ta men hui bei</mandarin> bombarded by a lot of questions and their parents also sometimes a bit too competitive so maybe <mandarin>他去那个家的时候:ta qu na ge jia de shi hou</mandarin> right instead of you know the what the actual purpose of visiting its like to to to hang out and chill with each other


so instead of these real purposes like the parents a bit more competitive lah so what they will do is they will compare results from their child and your child, err not not your child results within ya different families lah like <mandarin>你的儿子他的:ni de er zi ta de</mandarin> exams how <mandarin>去什么学校:qu shen me xue xiao</mandarin> !huh! <mandarin>几时要结婚:ji shi yao jie hun</mandarin> then in a way it like put some certain pressure on the kid


so do you have you experience this kind of thing through like throughout your life like for me is like my parents not very competitive so like they just usually <mandarin>去那边听听他们的:qu na bian ting ting ta men de</mandarin> relatives <mandarin>讲:jiang</mandarin> they boast about their kids ah but I think they don't really boast about what


we are doing until like, you know <mandarin>被被问:bei bei wen</mandarin> like the other family wants to sort of flex on you then <mandarin>他会问你:ta hui wen ni</mandarin> eh <mandarin>你的儿子去哪里:ni de er zi qu na li</mandarin> ya but little did they know I also make it to local U ah so, also also K lah (hmm) have you have you <mandarin>被:bei</mandarin> err how how to say compared and then you feel like you know you're not on the stronger side or <mandarin>你被:ni bei</mandarin> so speak like you cannot really show face around them


(hmm) for me is, I don't really interact much cause maybe because I'm not so err social so I don't really usually like approach my relatives and talk to them so usually is they'll ask my parents, like so in that sense is like err I don't really get interviewed lah in a way it's like I just go there play maybe ML or some or watch watch Youtube lor


like sometimes I wish that you know visiting is more than just I just go their house for the sake of going ah or for for so to speak for the sake of just you know collecting #ang pao# sometimes I wish that you know err I can be a bit closer to my different cousins, cause after my parents gone


so I think that, it's not it's not very good lah on me I should you know be a bit more proactive and talk to them find out more about what they are doing


after all we are about the same age group mah, so I think that's one of my bad habit


I might know more about the stranger than than than than <mandarin>我的我的:wo de wo de</mandarin> cousin lah so something is not quite right but okay lah now also a bit late


to fix it so <mandarin>不用紧:bu yong jin</mandarin> lor like like what you said ah we all have our own family so maybe I'll go visiting more of my wife's side lah, so to speak because ya I'm not very sociable


, (mmhmm)


, okay lah but I think, what you say is true in general like you should not force it to happen lah if it will happen it will happen lor like being fake err it will not work out in the end lah but in a way how to say ah


I wouldn't say like directly comparing but like when you ask about their so called education and stuff I think is not bad also like maybe cause your, like <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> children <mandarin>已经:yi jing</mandarin> go through <mandarin>过了:guo le</mandarin> so, you want to know more about it cause you in after all in the future your kids will


maybe there's a chance that they will go through the same path, so maybe you can like ask them find out more about what, err what we can do in the future lah cause like my parents they also don't really know what to do mah when <mandarin>我去:wo qu</mandarin> poly they never <mandarin>去:qu</mandarin> they didn't they didn't know they don't know anything about poly cause they didn't go poly ah so


in a sense that <mandarin>他可以问我的:ta ke yi wen wo de</mandarin> other relatives during chinese new year about err how is like err is poly a good place I think that's also not too bad <mandarin>你可以问:ni ke yi wen</mandarin> how to survive army you know cause after all err times <mandarin>会变:hui bian</mandarin> mah then the education system that we we encounter might be different might be very different in the future so at least <mandarin>他们的孩子:ta men de hai zi</mandarin> go go through right they also have some sort of err knowledge which they can share with us a then I think that's something we can learn also


(hmm) like what you say I guess that's that's true also there are many other places that you can get information from ah you don't really have to force err something if it works it works ah like if I really want to get closer to them maybe I can try, looking for some of the common hobbies ah like I know we play I think he play some of my cousins they play LOL also


which unfortunately now I cannot play ah cause my computer is, not really the best to play, so I think that's one of the thing maybe I can consider, so


ya actually #lok lok#, like err they always advertise one dollar per stick right for all sticks no matter what you order like the price tag sounds very cheap however right when <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> actually order <mandarin>的时候:de shi hou</mandarin> ah then <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> realised that it's not actually as cheap as you think


like <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> just <mandarin>一直拿拿拿:yi zhi na na na</mandarin> then before you know it the price shoot up to don't know what twenty dollars ah, ya


you know you cannot be you just order one stick mah cannot be order two sticks only mah usually you eat like what <mandarin>至少:zhi shao</mandarin> ten sticks then like right <mandarin>已经:yi jing</mandarin> ten dollar gone <mandarin>了:le</mandarin> you think about it


then you also don't really <mandarin>吃饱:chi bao</mandarin> ya <mandarin>吃爽:chi shuang</mandarin> lah but you compared to what we usually eat you know the KM s the Prata place, I think maybe that may be cheaper and more filling, so, yup


ya the #lok lok# actually not bad, we tried err hotdog seaweed chicken they got satay also then the yakitori sticks also japanese satay think he took some beancurd skin ya actually overall is not not too bad I think you should go and try if you have the time


but that night we go <mandarin>有很多:you hen duo</mandarin> YP, it is err you know CK


ya that coffee shop the one with the, ya I think that one lor, near the basketball court that side, ah fishball noodle ya ya chicken rice stalls


ya I think so correct, but sometimes (hmm), ya but sometimes what like some of the, food conditions ah may not be as hygienic or sanitary as you think like same as any other <mandarin>麻辣:ma la</mandarin> store lah like when you go there and the ingredients all laid out then usually is like very wet you don't know lay out how long


so it might not be as clean as you or appetising when you go there and see so must bear that in mind also lah


true but <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> must <mandarin>准备:zhun bei</mandarin> ah, [orh] they I think they you only got err original and <mandarin>麻辣:ma la</mandarin> but I think is, they prepare the same way is just fried then maybe <mandarin>麻辣:ma la</mandarin> he he throw the <mandarin>麻辣:ma la</mandarin> chilli powder on top lor or something like that


but <mandarin>我们没有:wo men mei you</mandarin> try lah


they got, ya they got fried one that one I know but I think fried is better leh like, you boil the broccoli also <mandarin>有点怪怪的:you dian guai guai de</mandarin> leh <mandarin>不是:bu shi</mandarin> meh you boil broccoli becomes like soft and mushy but if you fry it then it becomes like a


it's like a vegetable chip


, true ah, but you compare to malaysia #lok lok# which one you prefer


oh,


how to say err ration your budget <mandarin>你要是什么:ni yao shi shen me</mandarin> just <mandarin>拿而已你不用去:na er yi ni bu yong qu</mandarin> decide oh I want eat this but it's like not very worth it I think JB is just


eat what you want lah you don't really have to, so called err order by by logic can just


ya <mandarin>我以前去:wo yi qian qu</mandarin> china for internship also got a similar case like I think <mandarin>旁边有一个:pang bian you yi ge</mandarin> hotpot restaurant, then they never see the price they just go in then <mandarin>我们四个人:wo men si ge ren</mandarin> they just need <mandarin>一直:yi zhi</mandarin> order order order finish everything ah but when the when the bill came right it's like


ya so (hmm) so you need to, ya


ya ya correct for that time is like <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> plus we not going we we were not at like we were Beijing but we weren't the you know the central central like all the other shops so far the price is like quite affordable one so we just go in then just order ah we didn't really expect it to be so insane lah


but after that then like before we know it's like !wah! the price quite a lot quite high already for students especially, but okay lah is a unique experience also hotpot <mandarin>那时没有:na shi mei you</mandarin> try <mandarin>过:guo</mandarin> mah, so overall still not too bad


actually it's a restaurant like that's why is like, ya it's a restaurant, but is how to say it's not like singapore style, singapore style you don't really find this kind of restaurant you at the side of the roads but for china they have, err many restaurants at the side of the road like you know <mandarin>我们那边那个:wo men na bian na ge</mandarin> super bowl the KFC or the McDonalds is just like one one building by itself ya


ya they got the whole row of streets then like some sell clothes some sell, I think err what you call that ah those house ware like you know your japan home those kind of assorted house goods that you need, then they got this kind of restaurants also lor which is quite unique ah


the the layouts the


, ya I think it's just, restaurant prices lor, like it's not really those, err coffee shop coffee shop it's a real restaurant ah


so in that way, , correct, ah


, [orh]


, I think the, excessive food charge is also not too bad lah like, like how to say ah it will limit people from just <mandarin>一直:yi zhi</mandarin> over order lor then in the end will cause a lot of food wastage


so I think like having <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> charge at least <mandarin>会:hui</mandarin> limit <mandarin>别人去:bie ren qu</mandarin> you know, they actually consider what they want to eat lah rather than just <mandarin>去拿拿拿拿:qu na na na na</mandarin> then in the end they cannot finish then they have to throw away that's very wasteful ah, but china I miss their street food a lot sia I think last time


like their skewers they got different kind of meat lamb meat


okay ah <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> clap ah


last week, past few day ah past few day not much lah <mandarin>就是做工咯:jiu shi zuo gong lo</mandarin> then err, then work then code


then err do some more work then eat, then <mandarin>吃:chi</mandarin> then code again then <mandarin>会来睡觉:hui lai shui jiao</mandarin> lor, what else


very long


okay lah but okay lah but <mandarin>昨天我跟朋友去吃:zuo tian wo gen peng you qu chi</mandarin> err, but #shabu shabu# <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> long queue what so instead of going #shabu shabu# we put our name in #shabu shabu# so that in case we cannot find any food then <mandarin>我们可以去吃:wo men ke yi qu chi</mandarin> #shabu shabu# but in the end


then in the end what we eat is a K barbecue lah, but actually not bad lah the K barbecue we eat the K barbecue


pushcart ah, pushcart also very Sian, then like err you cannot own self take your own food you know


(mmhmm), do those thing and chapter about uh how twenty twenty the life before twenty twenty so BCE before corona era


then in the end, haven't study much already come back now the cert also have to print online


need to wait for the cert, to mail to me also wait very long, what to do then <mandarin>跟我讲真么办:gen wo jiang zhen me ban</mandarin> ah then after that uh, okay lah <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> result <mandarin>还不错:hai bu cuo</mandarin> lah so err I think err


not the very good until <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> dean's list lah, if dean's list <mandarin>就超好:jiu chao hao</mandarin> Liao lor, uh


study more lah


so ultimately <mandarin>他们只需要:ta men zhi xu yao</mandarin> uh <mandarin>拿一个:na yi ge</mandarin> cert 而已 lah <mandarin>他们不惯:ta men bu guan</mandarin> like err if they want to get into director list <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> dean Liao lah


but like okay lah at least <mandarin>现在我也是找到一个工作你:xian zai wo ye shi zhao dao yi ge gong zuo ni</mandarin> just <mandarin>不要想太多:bu yao xiang tai duo</mandarin> lah <mandarin>因为你外面找工作:yin wei ni wai mian zhao gong zuo</mandarin> right you see the the salary starting salary you put also damn high then who want to hire you you tell me


getting head hunt ah


(hmm) true lah is like, though the reason why I also don't want to, uh take food panda all these because uh it's like <mandarin>这种:zhe zhong</mandarin> jobs hor <mandarin>你已经:ni yi jing</mandarin> hor <mandarin>很难出的也是因为:hen nan chu de ye shi yin wei</mandarin> you already the pay is high so once you get the pay high then uh next time if you work pay low then you don't wanna work pay low so what I think is <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> work pay low <mandarin>先:xian</mandarin> so that <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> at least Agar Agar <mandarin>你多少先:ni duo shao xian</mandarin> so that hor next time <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> increase pay hor <mandarin>你会比较高兴:ni hui bi jiao gao xing</mandarin> mah so <mandarin>如果现在你两千五:ru guo xian zai ni liang qian wu</mandarin> then <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> increase to <mandarin>三千你会:san qian ni hui</mandarin> happy mah rather than <mandarin>你三千块钱:ni san qian kuai qian</mandarin> then after that hor okay <mandarin>做三千块钱:zuo san qian kuai qian</mandarin> for GrabFood delivery per month that's a lot mah <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> right


then after that hor


(hmm), true lah true lah, but !aiya! <mandarin>就是这样麻烦的啦没有办法啦现在也是如果:jiu shi zhe yang ma fan de la mei you ban fa la xian zai ye shi ru guo</mandarin> you must find job right also very hard, then like ah Bo Pian lah then you have to find lor at least have a job lor


but !aiya! this kind of things very hard to say also so err we should talk about some other topic ah, so err I think, okay I'm just gonna <mandarin>看那个:kan na ge</mandarin> list ah then <mandarin>我要我看那一个:wo yao wo kan na yi ge</mandarin> interesting then <mandarin>我跟你讲:wo gen ni jiang</mandarin> ah okay so uh if you got three wish right


what would you wish for


so like


ah


(hmm), air bend water bend metal bend err whatever bend


[orh], [orh] so like you, the molecule because


then


(hmm), !wah! then <mandarin>那种:na zhong</mandarin> superpower <mandarin>最好还是:zui hao hai shi</mandarin> err you will never lose your power is to always win


err maybe <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> manipulate time ah, manipulate time actually not bad, because like science can explain the law of the time thing lah so err a bit hard lah then <mandarin>有可能我那个:you ke neng wo na ge</mandarin> paradox <mandarin>很想那种:hen xiang na zhong</mandarin> grandfather paradox lah then err whatever paradox lah


uh quite interesting lah but also very interesting to go back to the past to actually see things at the past, then to see if err dinosaurs


happen or not or it is just a story, this is just all prehistoric, that's why lah have to prove it on your own to see, so that next time we have the prove, but also time travel okay lah then


time travel, you might learn a lot more than


if like <mandarin>我活久一点:wo huo jiu yi dian</mandarin> then <mandarin>才可以:cai ke yi</mandarin> explore more stuff mah but eventually, the last wish, the the wish that I won't, do is actually, uh immortal lah I think that one a bit bullshit lah cause like err who would want to live forever where all people die already then you still live around what do you think


enjoy life to the fullest, because like you know a lot right sometime they say that knowing not knowing is a blessing so like by knowing a lot right becoming smart right is also not very good


so like err so like eventually they say act blur live longer which is true lah, what you


dimension hoping a bit like time travel also because right you will never know mah because time might not be travelling in a straight line you might be travelling in a multi dimensional line mah so like instead of traveling back in time right you are actually leaping from uh this dimension to another dimension


so like you the past you see is not your actual past is the another dimension past, whichever past to your stage you know


but you must see ah, so if you dimension jump what makes you think that, another of you dimension want to jump to your this dimension and kill you to take over your place just like the one in uh future diary, so like future diary is basically uh she jumped into the another dimension then after that kill her original self in that dimension and live as herself


[orh] so like, jumping universe ah jumping universe okay lah jumping universe, it's quite fun lah but like then


later you jump jump jump then after that you don't know how go home how


, okay lah but like uh, my third wish will be to


be, uh what what is cool to do a party trick, maybe something like err, able to, you know like those uh human calculator


the the people that can easily maths, think quite cool ah so maybe uh oh I know one more thing maybe it's to be able to breathe underwater, cause uh if you will be able to breathe underwater right you can literally become aqua man I mean aqua man


so that uh you can live in the sea and become the next next king of the sea you become poseidon instead of <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> just err, you know the land only king of both, best of both worlds


not bad ah


then <mandarin>他的还有那个:ta de hai you na ge</mandarin> boat hor <mandarin>驾去一个:jia qu yi ge</mandarin> middle of the sea mah then <mandarin>他去:ta qu</mandarin> swimming <mandarin>他看到一个那个:ta kan dao yi ge na ge</mandarin> blue whale leh you <mandarin>懂:dong</mandarin> blue whale <mandarin>多大:duo da</mandarin> mah then <mandarin>他看:ta kan</mandarin> already <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> #chua sai# eh <mandarin>他真的:ta zhen de</mandarin> <mandarin>因为他看到那个:yin wei ta kan dao na ge</mandarin> blue whale <mandarin>在他前面:zai ta qian mian</mandarin> then <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> swim the other way swim <mandarin>到后面:dao hou mian</mandarin> cause of the blue whale


freaking blue whale eh


ya lah but like whale also usually is doesn't eat like big stuff I think it cannot digest big stuff right, that's why he's not carnivorous more of like uh


okay lah but like err <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> sea <mandarin>比较恐怖的是那个:bi jiao kong bu de shi na ge</mandarin> giant squid


I think they only explore like ten percent of the sea right they haven't explore like <mandarin>到完:dao wan</mandarin> right


but <mandarin>讲真的我:jiang zhen de wo</mandarin> then after that hor <mandarin>我们还没有:wo men hai mei you</mandarin> explore underground underground <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> dig lah <mandarin>我们有:wo men you</mandarin> dig <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> deep but <mandarin>我们没有:wo men mei you</mandarin> dig <mandarin>到超级:dao chao ji</mandarin> deep <mandarin>你懂吗我们没有:ni dong ma wo men mei you</mandarin> raid <mandarin>到:dao</mandarin> reach <mandarin>到那个:dao na ge</mandarin> earth the middle middle <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> core <mandarin>不要讲:bu yao jiang</mandarin> core lah <mandarin>太:tai</mandarin> deep Liao <mandarin>而且太:er qie tai</mandarin> hot Liao


okay maybe <mandarin>上面一点:shang mian yi dian</mandarin> you'll never know what is there also mah


then err, after the next moment <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> land Liao then after hor <mandarin>你一转头他就:ni yi zhuan tou ta jiu</mandarin> gone Liao <mandarin>这种很像:zhe zhong hen xiang</mandarin> the one in life in pi life of pi, you don't know is a curse or bless island ah


a more advanced than uh the stage that we thought wouldn't be possible <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> uh <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> egyptian era <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> how they built the pyramids


weighs like don't know how many tonnes eh without like <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> modern machinery hor, how they gonna to put and stack all the blocks together and make like a damn huge pyramid


then but like


is a bit <mandarin>恐怖:kong bu</mandarin> ah like that and a bit of err you'll never know what happened what actually happened in the past maybe they have like uh extra terrestrial <mandarin>那种:na zhong</mandarin> alien they come down to earth maybe maybe we don't know they come then they help us with their machineries


they are more advanced ahead of us


(hmm) maybe ah then they erase our memory ah they erase our memory then after that we just keep going lor maybe is in area fifty one like they what they say that's why they have the raid in area fifty one mah


, but ya lah true lah area fifty one top secret what I think but area fifty one the staff should be more of like uh advanced weapon lah that one more believable lah, the advanced weapon and maybe the secret organisation


most of I I don't think is aliens ah, it's a bit hard lah


[orh] I know what game already okay okay okay I know okay not not a game ah eh maybe ya is is a game so uh <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> lah #nier automata#, android


then <mandarin>那个不是很像那个:na ge bu shi hen xiang na ge</mandarin> parasite <mandarin>那个戏一样他要:na ge xi yi yang ta yao</mandarin> pluck <mandarin>他的头发:ta de tou fa</mandarin> to see if <mandarin>他是:ta shi</mandarin> parasite or not , but actually, but actually not bad ah <mandarin>你想一想啊那个:ni xiang yi xiang a na ge</mandarin> #nier automata# <mandarin>他的那个:ta de na ge</mandarin> history


right


ya lah <mandarin>我我是要玩的:wo wo shi yao wan de</mandarin> but <mandarin>我听他的:wo ting ta de</mandarin> story hor <mandarin>我是想玩啊我一点手痒啊:wo shi xiang wan a wo yi dian shou yang a</mandarin> lah but like it's not my kind of genre of game eh


is so much better and so much more cooler so uh you should try lah you should at least try like swinging around miles out to see the difference between the first spider man game and the second spider man game


what game is that kind


ya lah that's like the one of the downside of like getting online game ah online game <mandarin>就是这样的:jiu shi zhe yang de</mandarin> lah !wah! at least <mandarin>比:bi</mandarin> black shot <mandarin>好啦:hao la</mandarin> black shot <mandarin>只是:zhi shi</mandarin> one hour <mandarin>而已:er yi</mandarin> then you buy the the the gun right <mandarin>他只给你:ta zhi gei ni</mandarin> one hour <mandarin>而已:er yi</mandarin> so you literally spend like


a few dollars on the gun for the you rent the gun to play the game better so, black shot really a bet lah is a really a cash cow kind of game


[orh] so like err <mandarin>现在:xian zai</mandarin> the black shot <mandarin>比较:bi jiao</mandarin> fair lah <mandarin>以前的比较:yi qian de bi jiao</mandarin> not fair lah <mandarin>因为:yin wei</mandarin> cash to win what, then <mandarin>而且他们很:er qie ta men hen</mandarin> Garena Garena <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> competition <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> then


<mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> cheat ah


ya lah but, cause like


like <mandarin>真的你:zhen de ni</mandarin> just <mandarin>跑过其他的:pao guo qi ta de</mandarin> player like <mandarin>我每次:wo mei ci</mandarin> foul <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> Sibeh <mandarin>搞笑的:gao xiao de</mandarin> then hor <mandarin>有时:you shi</mandarin> hor <mandarin>我们在:wo men zai</mandarin> camp <mandarin>的时候我以前在:de shi hou wo yi qian zai</mandarin> camp <mandarin>的时候我玩那个这个:de shi hou wo wan na ge zhe ge</mandarin> game then <mandarin>他们玩:ta men wan</mandarin> err <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> setting mah they set the setting to no foul then <mandarin>很好笑:hen hao xiao</mandarin> then <mandarin>一直受伤一直:yi zhi shou shang yi zhi</mandarin> just slide <mandarin>而已:er yi</mandarin> then <mandarin>你你:ni ni</mandarin> just injured the other player Sibeh <mandarin>搞笑的:gao xiao de</mandarin> damn funny ah


(oo) one is so who's the one


ya lah that's me also what <mandarin>我也是吗每次:wo ye shi ma mei ci</mandarin> score one <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> two <mandarin>而已:er yi</mandarin> then <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> score ten <mandarin>的他们:de ta men</mandarin> just just whack in, but <mandarin>如果其他的:ru guo qi ta de</mandarin> game <mandarin>就很难讲啊其他的:jiu hen nan jiang a qi ta de</mandarin> game <mandarin>如果玩:ru guo wan</mandarin> tic tac toe ninety percent <mandarin>我会赢啦如果我:wo hui ying la ru guo wo</mandarin> start <mandarin>先:xian</mandarin>


!wah! then <mandarin>如果你要看:ru guo ni yao kan</mandarin> chess hor <mandarin>你应该看那个系啊那个那个:ni ying gai kan na ge xi a na ge na ge</mandarin> queen's gambit queen's gambit uh okay lah it's it's quite interesting lah you should watch lah Netflix


more than five people mah <mandarin>比较好玩吗:bi jiao hao wan ma</mandarin> so like you use that opportunity lah use the opportunity to save the money for next time lor after COVID when the vaccine is found


then then <mandarin>到时候你再花那个钱:dao shi hou ni zai hua na ge qian</mandarin> lor


no lah but like japan quite quite expensive eh not like not really like uh KL leh, no because japan like the especially the transport system right you just go one time hor <mandarin>可以十块多:ke yi shi kuai duo</mandarin> leh ten dollar plus leh just for one trip eh


then like, some more it is as is not accessible lah unless you okay is accessible by train but the transport is just expensive unless you just decide to stay in one area which is impossible what because japan there's a lot of things to do so you want to travel you want to travel around so when you travel around you spend a lot on the that time I went japan I think I spend like uh


I think like around thirty percent of my money spent on transport itself eh, most of my ya


no but <mandarin>如果你我懂:ru guo ni wo dong</mandarin> okay <mandarin>驾车:jia che</mandarin> fine <mandarin>你要去:ni yao qu</mandarin> Hokkaido fine Hokkaido <mandarin>飞机票比较便宜:fei ji piao bi jiao pian yi</mandarin> but <mandarin>他的那个东西没有这样贵:ta de na ge dong xi mei you zhe yang gui</mandarin> okay fine but <mandarin>如果你要去:ru guo ni yao qu</mandarin> Tokyo leh <mandarin>你去:ni qu</mandarin> Tokyo hor <mandarin>你驾车:ni jia che</mandarin> Bo Hua you know


then uh <mandarin>我还没去:wo hai mei qu</mandarin> Akhihabara leh <mandarin>我还想去:wo hai xiang qu</mandarin> Akhihabara <mandarin>那边看那个:na bian kan na ge</mandarin> anime the stuff <mandarin>然后:ran hou</mandarin> but <mandarin>我有去过:wo you qu guo</mandarin> maid cafe lah maid cafe not bad <mandarin>你有去过吗:ni you qu guo ma</mandarin> maid cafe


Akhihabara <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> Tokyo leh, Kyoto <mandarin>还有:hai you</mandarin> Kobe <mandarin>我没有去到:wo mei you qu dao</mandarin> Tokyo


ya lor because last last year hor <mandarin>我本来要买那个:wo ben lai yao mai na ge</mandarin> uh Nintendo switch <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> what <mandarin>不是:bu shi</mandarin> meh <mandarin>我不是跟你讲:wo bu shi gen ni jiang</mandarin> then after that hor in the end <mandarin>那:na</mandarin> COVID hit hor raise <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> price eh <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> just make use of the economy and


the good marketing strategy they just increase the price okay maybe not increase the price per say


what you call that your television then the point of a switch is to talk to the television to play, when you have a television mah


ah ah


ya lah <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> main selling point lah then, because you just need okay for PSfour you need the device and you need to buy another extra controller to play multiplayer but switch you don't need that you already have the implant already but with lite right you very you just play your own eh so you can only play like single player leh okay lah <mandarin>你讲:ni jiang</mandarin> multiplayer yes multiplayer but the another person to play multiplayer you must have the another person must have lite as well


so it's actually not worth lah, what I you think


!hannor! <mandarin>现在:xian zai</mandarin> if it <mandarin>我本来是要买:wo ben lai shi yao mai</mandarin> switch <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> but <mandarin>现在太贵:xian zai tai gui</mandarin> Liao lah <mandarin>我等:wo deng</mandarin> maybe next year lah then uh see how lah but <mandarin>等到:deng dao</mandarin> next year !wah! then like that rather get a PSfive, but I !aiya! to be honest hor <mandarin>现在没有时间玩:xian zai mei you shi jian wan</mandarin> game Liao


so that <mandarin>你有玩:ni you wan</mandarin> game <mandarin>也是:ye shi</mandarin> saturday sunday weekend so what to do


that's why like people, !aiya!, but <mandarin>也不可以这样讲:ye bu ke yi zhe yang jiang</mandarin> lah maybe they really don't know leh tricycle


I don't know lah I know that some of my friends still don't know how cycle lah then, then what we do is <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> just teach <mandarin>他:ta</mandarin> on the spot lah then


!wah! not bad leh, usually coaching <mandarin>这种是:zhe zhong shi</mandarin> at least twenty dollar per hour mah <mandarin>不是:bu shi</mandarin> meh, but now like you got a lot of lesson mah you can teach people how to cook teach people how to how to basic basically like a lot of things you can teach also


you don't need to cycle not just cycling


educators teach <mandarin>他们这种乱七八糟的:ta men zhe zhong luan qi ba zao de</mandarin> stuff, I have I have


I have, whatever


okay lah is like that one lah <mandarin>因为我们在那个我们:yin wei wo men zai na ge wo men</mandarin> born in the era where uh technology is rising mah but they are born in an era where technology is there already so they they just make use of the technology lah so <mandarin>你要想:ni yao xiang</mandarin> from <mandarin>她:ta</mandarin> generation hor


okay lah but <mandarin>我现在也是没有:wo xian zai ye shi mei you</mandarin> TikTok account right no find I find, I find there's no need for a TikTok lah so like a first thought is more to, I don't know lah it's just not my type my kind of thing lah so I never download lah


but at least Vine Vine is a short seven second video, actually I don't know lah TikTok also like Vine like that, but I don't know why TikTok died then Vine eh sorry not TikTok died Vine died but TikTok rise maybe TikTok buy over Vine


or maybe they just copy their idea you never know


I think america ya america <mandarin>刚好他:gang hao ta</mandarin> ban TikTok so uh nobody I think a lot of the account were suspended then <mandarin>他们现在不可以用那个:ta men xian zai bu ke yi yong na ge</mandarin> account then uh then LL lor <mandarin>他们现在不可以做东西了:ta men xian zai bu ke yi zuo dong xi le</mandarin> lor along then they go back to use Instagram lor Instagram story or Facebook lah


whatever they like


, but like, once it's in the internet hor very hard to erase so best advice is to tell people <mandarin>不要啦不要参这种东西比较好:bu yao la bu yao can zhe zhong dong xi bi jiao hao</mandarin> don't don't


just don't do it, it is it is not safe, it is to protect your future from your Paiseh, like now you do what then confirm your future self will be Paiseh of what you going to do


no meh


ya lah, but like this kind of things right actually have like very little to no value, like the like social media influencer <mandarin>这些:zhe xie</mandarin> little to no value, cause like everybody can become an influencer you just have to talk about it then uh just


you just have to show your face only ah just have a pretty face then can already


!hanna! then or no no no <mandarin>还有一个就是:hai you yi ge jiu shi</mandarin> you must be damn talented lah, uh let's say <mandarin>很厉害:hen li hai</mandarin> juggling !wah!, your TikTok maybe will will be good or your video editing skill hor


top tier hor ya then <mandarin>你就会好了:ni jiu hui hao le</mandarin> I think <mandarin>你会:ni hui</mandarin> popular lah one of the things is funny good looking or you skilled lah very skilled talented or prodigy you play piano Sibeh Zai !wah!


then err <mandarin>就是这样:jiu shi zhe yang</mandarin> lor <mandarin>以前人家叫你去你也不要:yi qian ren jia jiao ni qu ni ye bu yao</mandarin> lor, then now you regret


ya lah last time secondary school also you thought like uh you have no time but actually hor, that is actually when you have the most time, then now is actually you have the no time because you have to do the actual stuff, then <mandarin>那些最:na xie zui</mandarin> important the stuff hor <mandarin>现在你要开始做所以:xian zai ni yao kai shi zuo suo yi</mandarin> hor you should have do it in the past lah but like


also another thinking is that <mandarin>你小时候:ni xiao shi hou</mandarin> hor <mandarin>你要:ni yao</mandarin> have fun mah so have fun also very important so hard to say lah depends on what you prioritise ah


ya, this is all ah


!walao! eh <mandarin>你的真的是:ni de zhen de shi</mandarin> typical normal life eh <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> Sian leh, okay ah <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> past few day <mandarin>我两天前我不是跟朋友出去:wo liang tian qian wo bu shi gen peng you chu qu</mandarin> lor then <mandarin>去那个跑去:qu na ge pao qu</mandarin> but then <mandarin>是去到很远:shi qu dao hen yuan</mandarin> lah then <mandarin>就跑去那个什么:jiu pao qu na ge shen me</mandarin> ah


!wah! then <mandarin>在那边:zai na bian</mandarin> !wah! the very long queue leh


uh <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> made a bet lah <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> bet lah <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> scissors paper stone ah <mandarin>看谁输:kan shui shu</mandarin> right <mandarin>他不是就:ta bu shi jiu</mandarin> uh <mandarin>他们叫那个:ta men jiao na ge</mandarin> milo tower lah milo tower <mandarin>然后如果你输的话他会:ran hou ru guo ni shu de hua ta hui</mandarin> pour one spoonful of sugar <mandarin>进那个:jin na ge</mandarin> cup of milo


!wah! <mandarin>真的是真的是:zhen de shi zhen de shi</mandarin> pure diabetes on that day


!wah! I agree with that lor, !wah! I I still miss the time eh !wah! <mandarin>这样快就一年就过去了:zhe yang kuai jiu yi nian jiu guo qu le</mandarin> !wah! next year is like twenty twenty one already eh !wah! like twenty twenty is like non existent there's gonna be go down the history book next time like our children is going to


going to be like !wah! nice chapter ah twenty twenty ah what's gonna be like, !haiya!, !walao! eh <mandarin>真的是可能以后的孩子要看读那些:zhen de shi ke neng yi hou de hai zi yao kan du na xie</mandarin> chapter ah


you know I agree lor, !wah! then <mandarin>讲到这个:jiang dao zhe ge</mandarin> right <mandarin>一定讲我那个死人我那个:yi ding jiang wo na ge si ren wo na ge</mandarin> engineering society ah <mandarin>我那个:wo na ge</mandarin> course, !wah! <mandarin>鸡蛋炒鸭蛋:ji dan chao ya dan</mandarin> ah


!wah! <mandarin>鸡蛋奶奶我读到:ji dan nai nai wo du dao</mandarin> err <mandarin>去那边:qu na bian</mandarin> right <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> I tried so hard and got so far in the end it doesn't really matter !wah! then <mandarin>这次:zhe ci</mandarin> right <mandarin>他那天:ta na tian</mandarin> right <mandarin>三天前:san tian qian</mandarin> right <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> send <mandarin>我一个:wo yi ge</mandarin> email leh <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> email right <mandarin>他写着:ta xie zhe</mandarin> this module is no longer examinable <mandarin>就算他没有:jiu suan ta mei you</mandarin> exam Liao eh <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> exam <mandarin>本来是:ben lai shi</mandarin> err normal <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> sixty percent


if I only know out of heart but okay lah I think we are I'm my batch is the last batch to sacrifice ah always the sacrifice one


!wah! <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> at first <mandarin>每个人都这样:mei ge ren dou zhe yang</mandarin> lah <mandarin>刚进:gang jin</mandarin> uni <mandarin>的时候:de shi hou</mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>就是进去像:jiu shi jin qu xiang</mandarin> poly <mandarin>一样:yi yang</mandarin> !wah! poly <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> four point zero <mandarin>可是:ke shi</mandarin> uni five point zero <mandarin>你懂:ni dong</mandarin> right, !wah! five point zero <mandarin>进去就是:jin qu jiu shi</mandarin> five point zero five point zero !wah! ya lor until take first test okay lah still five points zero still okay a bit within reach then after quiz two then quiz three then <mandarin>到:dao</mandarin> final right you realise that you are no longer in poly you are in university


!wah! <mandarin>真的是:zhen de shi</mandarin> okay ah <mandarin>拿一个:na yi ge</mandarin> B <mandarin>就够:jiu gou</mandarin> Liao four point zero <mandarin>就够:jiu gou</mandarin> Liao, !wah! <mandarin>就是这样:jiu shi zhe yang</mandarin> lor <mandarin>我全部朋友这些都是这样:wo quan bu peng you zhe xie dou shi zhe yang</mandarin> eh


!wah! uh see our results, !wah! can't make it you can get a two happy already that's their that's their target now they just want to pass maybe three at least a three not really two that Jialat lah


ya lah but technically now uni cert is just a piece of paper is the piece of paper is just to make you to get job what the most important thing is to uh ultimately is to help you get a job is to secure a job in the future


right


ya lah but <mandarin>你现在你有一个三千块:ni xian zai ni you yi ge san qian kuai</mandarin> right <mandarin>你就可以偷笑:ni jiu ke yi tou xiao</mandarin> Liao <mandarin>现在是那些人不是不要做:xian zai shi na xie ren bu shi bu yao zuo</mandarin> leh


err <mandarin>他们要:ta men yao</mandarin> after <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> graduate <mandarin>他们没有:ta men mei you</mandarin> get <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> paying job they want they like what you say they want four four five thousand job lah but they don't get lah so they so but they are only offer like two thousand plus jobs then if they work as a Grab driver or a Grab delivery they can earn more then then with this right they will just keep working as Grab and they will stray away from their field of expertise


is uh what what they studied in university, so


yah I agreed to the full extent ah <mandarin>都是这样的因为:dou shi zhe yang de yin wei</mandarin> SG <mandarin>多人:duo ren</mandarin> right <mandarin>因为这些工作他每次都需要:yin wei zhe xie gong zuo ta mei ci dou xu yao</mandarin> at least two years prior experience <mandarin>的你不可能:de ni bu ke neng</mandarin> like do grab delivery confirm you always will have zero experience so what you find in their portfolio say uh what grab delivery driver ah <mandarin>他不会请你:ta bu hui qing ni</mandarin> what <mandarin>他一定请人家:ta yi ding qing ren jia</mandarin> that have more experience one what


what


first I'll wish for, maybe a superpower, superpower ability to fly ah <mandarin>飞会比较好:fei hui bi jiao hao</mandarin> I mean actually <mandarin>应该:ying gai</mandarin> teleport lah, teleport <mandarin>会比较好:hui bi jiao hao</mandarin> lah


but <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> the first <mandarin>还是要:hai shi yao</mandarin> teleport lah <mandarin>因为我可以:yin wei wo ke yi</mandarin> teleport anywhere I want mah then is like !wah! <mandarin>如果你像:ru guo ni xiang</mandarin> right <mandarin>我要睡觉:wo yao shui jiao</mandarin> right then <mandarin>去:qu</mandarin> camp right then <mandarin>我可以突然间:wo ke yi tu ran jian</mandarin> teleport <mandarin>回家睡个好觉:hui jia shui ge hao jue</mandarin> then <mandarin>才回去:cai hui qu</mandarin> camp


!wah! I don't want you to suffer all that thing man, then <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> second wish, err can, create matters ah


ability to create anything ah, it's like you can change those molecule water molecule can change to iron <mandarin>那种啊:na zhong a</mandarin> then can create a lot of stuff


is is actually not bad superpower, what do you think


actually quite cool, ah


ah something like that lah, ya that


!wah!


I think immortal is a actually is more to a curse than a bless ah cause like you see people die but you still live, a lot of people think, that immortal is good but actually is very bad live longer is better like what you say lah, for me I for just now I haven't say my third one my third wish is I think I will go for


can go for dimension jump ah, not bad ah, I think is like because there, there is most probably is another dimension or another universe somewhere else lah


!wah! then <mandarin>你跳去不懂什么:ni tiao qu bu dong shen me</mandarin> universe then then with <mandarin>那些:na xie</mandarin> power right !wah! don't know what you can do with that with all that universe maybe some like no responsibility no law no consequences just do it only, !wah! <mandarin>如果真的这样的话真的是:ru guo zhen de zhe yang de hua zhen de shi</mandarin> enjoy life <mandarin>在那边:zai na bian</mandarin> ah


!hannor!, that's true but, but I'm not talking about becoming smart I am talking about uh dimension jumping hopping ability to hop from one dimension to another


exactly that's what I'm talking, which is which is just like going to another world lah !huh! like dimension what I mean is can be another timeline but also can be like another universe like maybe like not really like maybe like humans is non-existent in that world lah maybe that that world like have magic all that lah like those thing lah


like uh rick and morty right you can see you saw all those shows what like those universe like got a lot of supernatural stuff in all those universe, that's what I'm talking about lah


ya maybe maybe I might refrain myself if not keep jump dimension maybe to jump universe go into another universe like not this is like out of the time loop, is like the jeremy benjamin or like good place


okay lah so I never rephrase myself properly is jumping universe, ya


there's always a home <mandarin>因为这是家吗你永远都会记得除非除非你真的去那边到很久:yin wei zhe shi jia ma ni yong yuan dou hui ji de chu fei chu fei ni zhen de qu na bian dao hen jiu</mandarin> right then you don't know how to go home right is like maybe <mandarin>我去那边:wo qu na bian</mandarin> like uh every once a month right then after that then go back home lah is like go there like a fantasy lah fantasy world like those like VR kind lah <mandarin>就是去那边玩玩一下就回来:jiu shi qu na bian wan wan yi xia jiu hui lai</mandarin> lah

is like maybe <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> for <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> vocation right <mandarin>我进去真的是:wo jin qu zhen de shi</mandarin> total blackness leh then <mandarin>有时你会看:you shi ni hui kan</mandarin> feel <mandarin>得到有人在旁边:de dao you ren zai pang bian</mandarin> right <mandarin>因为我们每次:yin wei wo men mei ci</mandarin> dive in buddy ah you will feel feel like there is a third person beside you then you will feel scary


then then err then you will see a big fish swim in front of you right your heart will go pounding like !wah! <mandarin>跳的很大声的那种:tiao de hen da sheng de na zhong</mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>你可以听到你的心跳真的是很大声:ni ke yi ting dao ni de xin tiao zhen de shi hen da sheng</mandarin> leh, !wah!

like one mouth full you can be inside the whale stomach already then you can be moby dick Liao


!wow!, actually they those are not the only one that is scary eh it's like what it's cause we're with our time technology right we still haven't like explore like the whole ocean yet because the ocean is like that that vast that big


then we only like, explore like <mandarin>那种一点点而已那种:na zhong yi dian dian er yi na zhong</mandarin> like scratch the surface of the ocean only, then uh like in the future maybe we will lah but you can see all those photo !wah! <mandarin>那种鱼:na zhong yu</mandarin> 那种 experience <mandarin>那种:na zhong</mandarin> deep deep uh sea ocean <mandarin>的那种:de na zhong</mandarin> creature !wah! like actually <mandarin>很恐怖的:hen kong bu de</mandarin> leh <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> !wah! you imagine you see one right in front of you you really will like #chua sai# one


is like <mandarin>只是看他们:zhi shi kan ta men</mandarin> lor which they either explore the space first or they can explore finish the ocean first but I think, they will focus more on the space first ah like cause like I think our the earth the water will run out right or eh actually the water will rise the water level will rise due to global warming they they will fill up it will make it even harder to explore so I think explore the face the space will be easier


what do you think


true lah


ya what you say lah is ten percent lah including the ocean and land, or we legit explore a bit maybe maybe we got like a very maybe like singapore is like on top of actually built on top of a very huge creature but you also don't know


because maybe maybe maybe there's a loss uh technology asian technology right we yet to discover, like uh maybe maybe last time already got modern civilisation then suddenly happen to them, then err


this happened lor, then we slowly modernised ourselves again ah


ya lor could be could be aliens like what you say it could be aliens ah because until now maybe already there's an existence of alien already like man in black lah but they just keep hidden from us lah or ask them what civilian


but make like uh humans then they say err is built by humans lor then they like erase their existence of aliens lor say denied the existence of it


do do the Naruto run !wah! but in the end was uh quite a few who went there sia the area fifty one raid


!wah!


ya lah I think they hide a nuke weapon there ah nuclear weapon, mostly or all there lah, they just don't want people to know ah you will never know what's inside the way you go and come out raid inside then they come out with a strike five or err


why what is that word what game they always one ah the, I I forgot which game already ah some game, like maybe you come up with a delta with a one hundred percent are bacteria free


ya, !wah! #nier automata# eh actually could be eh maybe maybe they're hiding some android inside area fifty one, they may have already created some humanoid uh character inside then they just don't want the people maybe some, some of their working is humanoid already


maybe there is some humanoid android among us already we also don't know what, you won't know until you crack their skull open and see whether they are robots or not what
