when the door is actually open nobody will emulate what you wanna see anyway, but I remember we also went to Shanghai for one or two nights, because her father lived there her father and mother they were divorced already and Shanghai was very classy very high end and I of course must embarrass myself and everybody we go in there then the food and everything came and then they serve our portion I was like <mandarin>这么小:zhe me xiao</mandarin> ah


and they were like eh don't say so loud this is high end fine dining and I was like oh sorry sorry, and err it was interesting to see her whole family to learn so much about her life in that sense


I don't know why I was asking because I also was counting how much money I brought right I I was only like nineteen, so my friend was like don't talk about money don't talk about money not she her father


and and I was like embarrassing her at every step of the way lah !wah! I suppose !wah! <mandarin>这么小要多少钱很贵吗很贵吗:zhe me xiao yao duo shao qian hen gui ma hen gui ma</mandarin> you know so obviously it's like make things very I'm such a !oops! this careful careful all our talking had moved it


okay I do believe in vibrations I think that there definitely is, a science to it oh ya I of course I believe in ghosts I keep wanting to see my father's ghost


(oo), , , you


why do you think you heard that is there any link to him did he have chains on


do you feel you can hear for random ghosts as well or only that one time


err, well maybe that's for the better in case you see a lot of or you hear a lot of ghosts during seven month seven month is about now isn't it, no I wish I can no actually I take that back when I was young


when I was young I wanted to make good friends with ghosts I wanted the ghosts to be like my best friend during school exam I can say eh I don't know the answer leh then the ghost can tell me C can tell me B you know again but it was only a fantasy and I believe that the ghost will definitely be around <mandarin>他们可以觉得我们在这边他们那边可以讲话我们可以做朋友吗:ta men ke yi jue de wo men zai zhe bian ta men na bian ke yi jiang hua wo men ke yi zuo peng you ma</mandarin> you know we're all living in the same place why should we be scared of them why should they be scared of us


I am not scare of ghost maybe people are scared of what, something or someone can do to them, if you think the ghost can do something bad to you then you're scared


ah


did you ever see this female ghost again


so the younger brother saw a ghost staring at the older brother and the older burden himself cannot see oh I see !wah!


never never of it the sound like Laksa #bee hoon#


ya I forget I know who you mean why it's on the tip of my tongue I hate this when I know who you mean and you cannot turn I think


I thought it was Leong maybe not


never mind never mind oh okay it's not Teo lah okay Teo lah that means still Teo, Teo is hokkien


ya but the sad life though ya oh then made it recently you one lah ya


oh no I don't know this is this if this came up with the pop culture you would have won !wah!


err Chew something is it


(hmm) I was thinking because I know she has a daughter and I remember reading about that ah <mandarin>我只知道有一个秋在里面:wo zhi zhi dao you yi ge qiu zai li mian</mandarin> ya ya something something <mandarin>秋:qiu</mandarin> maybe


or maybe <mandarin>秋:qiu</mandarin> something something or maybe something <mandarin>秋:qiu</mandarin> something you see lah like giving you all the combinations or maybe it's for you know chinese sometimes you four lines right never mind never mind <mandarin>我知道:wo zhi dao</mandarin> after this recording we can go and google we got a lot of questions after this ya


(hmm)


I know what you mean the slightly pop out kind of eye right with the eye bag thing it's very popular recently because of the korean thing with eye bags


for the longest time I hate my eye bags I really don't want my eye bags like if I can I will go to the airport and put my eye bags there and call it lost baggage


the the good thing about not see see see when I smile


I think it's age also <mandarin>我笑的时候很大很:wo xiao de shi hou hen da hen</mandarin> then the wrinkles <mandarin>很很深:hen hen shen</mandarin> you see the wrinkle lines very deep, and then if I stopped smiling sadly the winkle lines are still there that you can still see the the leftover bits of the creases and that is very annoying for me but !aiya! let it be lah


the only time it really bothers me is when I'm I have to look good for something and then they put make up on it and then make up becomes really take ah !wah! the lines even more <mandarin>深啊:shen a</mandarin> more more more obvious I cannot stand it, (hmm) <mandarin>明显:ming xian</mandarin> I have a friend his name is #ming xian# next time I #fu ming sian#


ya okay lah


so that's my one hour break but sometimes when it's really busy and it's impossible to take a full hour, I have to split it lah half an hour here and then later okay now it's a quieter time there take another half an hour you know


also depends on my partner


he comes to the entrance and he stationed at the entrance then I you know so at least there's always somebody watching ya


that's when we say, two of us will there one of us saw what happened and I took a photo when you were scolding my colleague us in a way ya but of course you can also work the other way right we can end up life about things for each other but we won't lah you know at the end of the day ah they also have CCTV all over the mall


you know, that's why I don't say yellow, you know cold play ah chris martin and his band are always tell lies <mandarin>每次说谎:mei ci shuo huang</mandarin> yellow <mandarin>他们不说谎他们唱黄全部都黄色:ta men bu shuo huang ta men chang huang quan bu dou huang se</mandarin> that kind of singing ya see lah we are supposed to not talk over each other you keep laughing and attached okay it's a real conversation right sorry guys


so, I do think that err the walking does help I think when it comes to, I'm like maintaining maybe but not exactly losing weight, if I really wanna lose weight I think I need to do proper jogging that kind of thing because when you're properly jogging then you are raising your heart rate


err then what lah, ya, !wah!


I think ah primary school lah no no no, let me think maybe with jason jason my second boyfriend I think because he was very concerned about being fat


the the the body shape and size is already you know, a sort of, how should I say, very much, the uh in in that kind of a shape body shape you know like some people have a body shape something like that it's like you have a body shape the matter what you do is very hard to run away from it kind you can run lah that's why you run away from it


so he would say he wants to lose weight he quit smoking he will eat healthy, !aiya! <mandarin>他吃很多水果:ta chi hen duo shui guo</mandarin> lah <mandarin>很多:hen duo</mandarin> salad lah <mandarin>但是吃吃吃个也也也:dan shi chi chi chi ge ye ye ye</mandarin> end up during


he ended up drink beer, and carbohydrates ya you know what some people call beer right liquid bread


really so I remember for his birthday one time and he told me he love sticky date pudding and I was like sticky date pudding I've never heard of it australia lah apparently people like the sticky date pudding and stuff so I said okay lah I go and look at recipe lah so I <mandarin>上网:shang wang</mandarin> lah go and check all the recipe <mandarin>看那个:kan na ge</mandarin> youtube lah


then finally I said okay I think I can try to make it so I got all the ingredients dates are not that easy to find in singapore if you want fresh dates, and uh so I use a few fresh and dried dates you know then I try and bake it and it actually came out quite nice got fudge and all these nice things in it


so when I presented it to him as a surprise you know surprise you know he actually, was very happy he ate it, then he we wanted to share with me then I <mandarin>我一直想哎呀这是他的生日的:wo yi zhi xiang ai ya zhe shi ta de sheng ri de</mandarin> present right let him have the whole thing don't wanna I don't wanna I don't wanna eat his <mandarin>礼物留又给你吃啦所以他吃了吃吃完全部:li wu liu you gei ni chi la suo yi ta chi le chi chi wan quan bu</mandarin> so I thought oh very good he eat everything means my baking quite good pass very good


sad thing is, after that the next day refused to talk to me, so I was like are you okay what's what happen what happen is everything okay and then I found out and he told me eventually he was angry with me because he thought I sabotaged his diet


(uh huh), such a petty guy I know that's why I left him, jason was like, two thousand and one


two two thousand and three four you know one of that time so, all my exes ah four year contract


arnold seven year contract, everybody else is you know arnold about eight years actually everybody else, andrea about two years, err and then they were like pockets of time when I was your single because I'm like fed up don't wanna see anybody you wanna talk to anybody


err <mandarin>一个人比较好:yi ge ren bi jiao hao</mandarin> and then so jason was second number two, and then my first boyfriend was did I ever tell you about #siang lian#, you know very nice guy even till today we're still friends the other day we had dinner at Bedok point


they wanted to give me some discounts or somemore but I also don't know the discount because he went to pay then I say I you let me know I transferred you now it's okay it's okay, so we ate chicken hotpot


very salty


so it was nice , and then when I finally sat down to eat, suddenly the staff is like !hey! <mandarin>你这个是那个:ni zhe ge shi na ge</mandarin> SDA mah I didn't mean where I have to change it they then she said we cannot wear our work shirt where we are sitting down it then why you fool you mean you if you eat in the mall yes you because I mean you don't want people to come to us say excuse me if somebody never wear mindset because you are taking a break then they will they will try to find fault right


or if they see you resting the SDA is skiving on the job you know you can't, and people will always do this <mandarin>拍照啦拍:pai zhao la pa</mandarin> video lah <mandarin>放:fang</mandarin> youtube lah <mandarin>放:fang</mandarin> stomp <mandarin>放:fang</mandarin> facebook lah !aiya!


I think it comes down to people feeling like they are in control


and when they see someone doing things freely either by mistake or because they really don't care, they, they feel this sense of, so they want to control someone else now they take bigger they take photos lah


they won't tell you, I have to go to this hairdressing salon err to tell them about some of the things lah like apparently they had a customer with a cup in front of them


by right they can serve water to the customers, however it is said that


they don't, it is not recommended that the hair salon or these bars they give you water because obviously they have to move cuts and and and then all these shared items will be handed from one hand to another hand


petty like don't know what he saw me only take picture


mentality lah let him be, , so as much as we are watching the people they are watching us and they will sometimes also be very , either aggressive or very unfair lah


but that's fine we do what we can at the end of the day I always tell them


the he understand why he has to wear it, of course we're not used to it, ya


that's really nice, I think she make one for you as well


I think it's hard lah most mother in laws and daughters most mothers in law and daughters in law they don't always get along, because, I have been there we're always the outsider


know, (oo), sorry to hear that


sometimes in this kind of things you don't know when it can be fixed and it's it's it's a bit like no matter what you do, eng up they are the ones who is holding on to it if they can't let go then it will never be fixed also


my very good friend nanda his , his wife and his mother they don't get along, because the wife err when she was pregnant everybody was very happy, then she had a miscarriage


everyday thinking where everyday crying, and then nanda's mother trying to be helpful, go and tell her, don't worry this happens to a lot of women


ya, but she took it as excuse me are you saying that my my my my baby dying inside me is not important, then after that she really didn't like her then even when nanda's two daughters were born ah


don't even want to let them visit the grandma that kind of thing you know if the grandma was to come will have to come and visit them and then she will be like oh your mum is coming today ah ah I'm going out you know


but it's just how she said, so remember what we were saying right doctor edward damning we know what we told him we don't know what he heard, so that communication became an issue so whatever it was that you might have said to your mother in law and


on one hand it was clear that it was so comfortable and safe you felt safe, to speak like this with them


I can understand, I actually got a bit annoyed with one of the grab riders you know who at Bedok point because


number one you never, ask me if I want and I say no actually sometimes you ask and I say no I don't want anything and then he bring then I said !alamak! I got too many things to eat then I say never mind I give to my colleague then you get angry I I get for you cannot just give to someone


so I'm like eh why like this you're forcing me to have something I don't want so in the end I tell he actually what you're doing is very disrespectful when you communicate with me I feel very stressed


I'm like why you don't know me I don't know you just, you know keep it that way like sound very bad right he's a nice guy otherwise and


you remember that there was one time I go and draw this picture <mandarin>有一个雨伞和一个:you yi ge yu san he yi ge</mandarin> flower <mandarin>和一个:he yi ge</mandarin> heart then holding an umbrella over the flower then it's raining


ah


ya, my chinese name has two, because initially my my name may is not inside the IC, so I was originally called


ya which is err to represent it as err


the poetry though is more poetic, ya so they they wanted me to be more err


poetic or maybe not as cold hearted as the previous name, ya, (hmm), might be, but my parents wasn't thinking about that like they all they want is they they just want


it just just don't want me to have a cold heart lah there's that's all they want but the the the profession a guy ended up gave me a very artistic name


okay, but my childhood wasn't that, good because of my the new name that was given to me oh ya


my, classmates especially the guys, they make fun of my name because my name <mandarin>诗掀:shi xian</mandarin> can be, misread as as a

and pinch below our our you know it's very painful, ya, I don't know or other schools got, did that but in, at my time this teacher is very very bad

ya ya but uh artistic lah I felt like artistic because you need to learn specific, a specific movements of each steps so it's not like anyhow anyhow dance anyhow play lor like that lor


you you know they play the music then we have to listen to the music, altogether due to certain certain steps [loh] (hmm) kind of, quite entertaining lah


always act as though they, ah very strict, I,


err, I I think otherwise I think maybe they don't know how their face look like


(hmm), are you still in touch with the teachers, ya neither too I, but I I did the hear that some of the teachers actually pass away already


ya and that one I heard was a PE teacher, in err my secondary school days he actually also taught basketball one, ya I I heard it from another classmate

that time err the school was still together sharing the same field with another secondary school called err #teck whye# secondary school, there was one murder case, because our school err there are many ways to go into the school


but it it doesn't happen in the school itself it happens, err outside the school the canal or that that that place err was, err, near the woodlands road, ya so it was raining one of the


one of the, girls, was found murdered, I don't know whether they actually caught the the murderer or not, err


err during my year my err I think it was during, sec second, when I was in secondary three, ya I mean I I study there for four years there was the only murder case but it was also very


a very scary lah that such such I think it had its first time such thing happen [loh], , the the canal was actually outside the house of outside the school and then there are other ways to come

so his grandma <mandarin>就讲说:jiu jiang shuo</mandarin> err I I but that that bernadette would be nice


!huh!, err also called bernadette, but, pass away already so, I think because err she misses her a lot lah so she's just tell chris to uh let me have this name called bernadette lor

like people selling turkish food right


and I find it err <mandarin>有点可惜:you dian ke xi</mandarin> because ah I think we didn't really have a chance to visit the, the, the their old village ah <mandarin>老街这种:lao jie zhe zhong</mandarin> cafe


, it is it because we wake up a late lah, [orh]


but, ya then err I I guess the the most memorial experience for you lah should be Myeondong right you managed to buy the those makeup cosmetic thingy right


oh, okay okay


oh ya then ah that maybe remind you when talking about Myeondong ah the strawberry, the one piece strawberry that you eat, and I personally find it err <mandarin>有点:you dian</mandarin> err <mandarin>没有那么划算:mei you na me hua suan</mandarin> #bo hua# lah ya


do you remember how much, ya I suspect is about three bucks for one piece of strawberries coated in chocolate


yes and are to be honest err I haven't really seen it but I can relate this as a fruit fondue coated in chocolate syrup lah


not sure if the taste at the same because I didn't eat it, what was it like sweet chocolate or can you explain remember but


yes because I think singaporean domain pay for unique things lah only thing is whether can captured their attention long term lor, then err just now you mentioned about mochi I remember ah we also went to taiwan


and ah we had that, like ah what do you call that like rectangular pillow size or booster size mochi the one you put inside the stick


then you


then, I think that that taste nice err, what what was your favourite one


I think they ever bring


ya then err


<mandarin>想到有点回味无穷啊那个:xiang dao you dian hui wei wu qiong a na ge</mandarin> garlic <mandarin>辣椒:la jiao</mandarin> !wah! cup with the is that oyster there


yes yes very nice but I also remember when we went to another part of taiwan


are we have something like that as well right the the place where


the same concept where we can eat grilled seafood since is near the sea lah


[orh]


ah <mandarin>对对:dui dui</mandarin> restaurant


yes yes like singapore style lah


the the drink, okay lah drink nothing much it was a bigger water than usual that we can share, because they provided us with very small cup ah,


(hmm), eh <mandarin>那时我们有点那个海鲜:na shi wo men you dian na ge hai xian</mandarin> ah


we did


(hmm) of course lah as in because singapore we like import mah so you will become more expensive ya


then <mandarin>除了:chu le</mandarin> seafood


more expensive, yes


uh yes and also the, the after that where where did we go we go to like Gaoxiong first or


Taipei


err err, ya then we also must remember to switch chinese and in the same sentence


ya, if possible lah the singlish way lah, then ya lah I mean that there was ah honestly some travelling was actually good lah err I


I guess <mandarin>不是在:bu shi zai</mandarin> the same trip lah


err


I believe lah so should naturally be, so that's why probably after that we we decided it next time we should go Genting, ya I


so I can't really are unfortunately sorry <mandarin>不能:bu neng</mandarin> relate <mandarin>这个东西:zhe ge dong xi</mandarin> ya


ah


different from the singapore version


ya remember we use <mandarin>那个甜酱:na ge tian jiang</mandarin> ah, then


err, (hmm)


yes the beef cube


how come err <mandarin>那个鸡排没有:na ge ji pai mei you</mandarin> come in cube format also


tori Q <mandarin>的:de</mandarin>


they say hor our, it's our appetite or others hunger are must only be seventy percent filled or with, because anything more you will make your <mandarin>肚子:du zi</mandarin> hor err <mandarin>用功的做工:yong gong de zuo gong</mandarin> then it will result in illness lah


in old age which will come lah so


ya talking about that it seems like <mandarin>他们没有:ta men mei you</mandarin> buffet then err <mandarin>都是摆美美食物是弄到很美的:dou shi bai mei mei shi wu shi nong dao hen mei de</mandarin> than <mandarin>比较:bi jiao</mandarin> cute cute <mandarin>的小样的:de xiao yang de</mandarin> miniature


intake, ya, then , anyway because for


as you know lah we are expecting our newborn, I feel I could be better more much better prepared


especially, the name I think we thought about it, then in the end I haven't really err think of more names to to to to decide lah, so, but at least or just want to be sure lah the english name will be the same


err, anyway uh, newborn, the opportunity ah no I don't mean opportunity right, once in a lifetime is is a major thing so I don't want to to like err


so <mandarin>你对哪方面有什么:ni dui na fang mian you shen me</mandarin> thought <mandarin>吗:ma</mandarin> <mandarin>有什么:you shen me</mandarin> anything that, you feel is necessary


so, is much beneficial and also remember that now


that day I mentioned that <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> swimming <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> coach, what's a full time


ah, ya <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> hor <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> hor


be, and then, ah


err so that one is done, the enrichment <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> how does it work


err, have to find a coach lah so called


I was hoping lah he can err


probably train a few more things lah like stamina, teamwork or ya, and the, aggressive situation, take pressure because football is really err


err <mandarin>你也会给给人家讲你也很快也会不会玩的:ni ye hui gei gei ren jia jiang ni ye hen kuai ye hui bu hui wan de</mandarin> lah


piano err okay lah <mandarin>算是:suan shi</mandarin> achieved


err, true cause honestly I, have this problem when I was primary school lah I was I remember being I also run around during class, and, unfortunately there was once the teacher asked to see my parents because of these lah


ya but I don't really remember exactly because back then I really don't know is wrong


honestly when <mandarin>我在中学就是:wo zai zhong xue jiu shi</mandarin> total opposite, and probably I'm a monitor also


you are adding because the first year


err, as many as little useful thing as possible


ya that's true that's true, that's true


ah, ha ha


insect ah, [orh] <mandarin>厉害厉害我只玩过:li hai li hai wo zhi wan guo</mandarin> spider <mandarin>我不懂:wo bu dong</mandarin> grasshopper <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> fight


, then <mandarin>也是有点可惜因为到时:ye shi you dian ke xi yin wei dao shi</mandarin> when nathalia


spider


this year <mandarin>有一点辛苦:you yi dian xin ku</mandarin> leh


why not,


so <mandarin>只可以用手:zhi ke yi yong shou</mandarin> to transport <mandarin>它或者用一张纸:ta huo zhe yong yi zhang zhi</mandarin> lah


uh <mandarin>我不会喜欢:wo bu hui xi huan</mandarin> , spider <mandarin>有比较小我们抓的小:you bi jiao xiao wo men zhua de xiao</mandarin> spider <mandarin>颜色黑黑是:yan se hei hei shi</mandarin> normal <mandarin>东西啦青青:dong xi la qing qing</mandarin> !wah! <mandarin>很少颜色这种有点怕:hen shao yan se zhe zhong you dian pa</mandarin> leh


then err oh ya then


err


I think maybe


at least three KG lah based on what I hear from others, oh dear,


oh that's terrible, but you mean the gynae will based on weight lah to determine, can you do a natural,


dilate ah


, ya then err wish list leh, wish list <mandarin>你有没一个:ni you mei yi ge</mandarin> idea as in <mandarin>假设今天在新加坡有一个东西:jia she jin tian zai xin jia po you yi ge dong xi</mandarin> you wish was free for our children


in in future lah what


more noble lah


ya so back to that so what what we wish will be free for, our boy, in the future singapore have you have you


education as free for


ya then maybe in return err err when they let's say if the guy, when they serve national service they can dont need to pay them money [loh], because you really take up a scheme that free education, then I feel that this will probably spur more people to


don't have the worry about financial lah in terms of study


so in the sense where you feel that maybe the concern will be parents lah, why after giving birth then who can take care of the kids


and also financially lah


there is a thing, so <mandarin>我是不是就是说希望有一个:wo shi bu shi jiu shi shuo xi wang you yi ge</mandarin> grant


maybe offset or takeaway majority or the financial burden of taking care of newborn kids lah especially, err probably I think maybe it will be hard for them to support their education for until


when they reach adulthood but at least they could help to solve the issue, for they maybe until they get into primary school lah


, government pay


okay


and he pay your going or something


yes, very challenging lah I mean as I as we now face


firsthand, four, then <mandarin>还有:hai you</mandarin> the time effort


problem


ya almost,


terrible, more than


I I feel the one of the government, thing is they could set the tier level of grant based on also a young parent lah said we want to encourage more kids, I think the real incentive given to the younger couple


so when they give birth, they will get more subsidise and this will help them to, the trade off lah compared to for them to work in their career than until they get some financially than they decided to married have baby I think that will help but of course you must set a limit lah each family maybe up to two for instance


!huh!


then what I feel is err, ya lah they they should give incentive lah for people giving birth early lah, or maybe more err <mandarin>比较:bi jiao</mandarin> age the couple they can


provide support in terms of the IVF lah since is harder for people to conceive, usually, oh


is it will be, I feel also better that, also other ways lah to promote


the the birth rate lah


this is #chai hong#


its home econs, how can my mom teach me how to sew, people back them wouldn't even bother to teach you you learn it through the home econs that is provided, by the school


olden days ladies all learn sewing as part of their education, so they will definitely know how to sew, make their own dress, and their own wedding gown


of course no, because ah we're still stuck at home, cannot go anywhere even if you can go up somewhere, but, there's not much you can buy outside if you are always working from home right


, I think you are referring to share share right, popular


burger chain lah like jewel, tried before, their pandan juice, pandan shake !wah!, very sweet , pandan shake ya I think is pandan shake ah


they have certain drinks that cater to local fare are locals flavour, very sweet, think taste like Kaya with a lot of sugar, and their burger selection are also not a lot leh,


beef burger, people go shack shack sure order beef burger


!wah! I think one meal cost, definitely more than you go mcdonald's, think one meal with a simple fries and a normal drinks is already twelve thirteen bucks


for beef burger, (hmm), not, that's why I say it's almost double, of uh if you go mcDonald's, is enough lah but


err say is value for money, even the queue, and the portion, I wouldn't go there again I think is a one time visit just to see what's the


craze about but err to go back again, I wouldn't


, which year ah, err, twenty sixteen


twenty sixteen, ya our first trip together, train to Busan


the train is to


Nami island, ya ya ya err


err it's a small island by itself, but it's not very far I think, five ten minutes, just like Gaoxiong, you know <mandarin>去那个:qu na ge</mandarin> Gaoxiong


the port also the same or it's only a five minute ferry only, ya ya ya, !aiya!


oh Nami island is something similar to Gaoxiong [loh]


singapore will have we only have #pulau ubin#, and #pulau ubin#, you only need bicycle, you don't need motorcycles and cars


so you you only need Sampan, ya [wor]


autumn, so whether is cold a not


you need to calculate lah, don't know, I only know <mandarin>西:xi</mandarin> is west


and planning, planning <mandarin>更:geng</mandarin> reality is different, ultimately <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> not the same, because <mandarin>我们不会看那个:wo men bu hui kan na ge</mandarin> train <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> train station so and the line so complex compared to <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> local line


I cannot recall but I know be it the japanese the korean


there are english, they really shun you when you speak english ah but <mandarin>你讲中文他们就:ni jiang zhong wen ta men jiu</mandarin> okay, a lot of chinese there where we are in korean a lot of restaurant hire


the chinese,


I remember it was very morning I think they will because I, the apartment we book is only meant for two people, so it look decent but


don't think is suitable for family, to establish a family, given that family that apartment size, , then go korea, let me feel


because suddenly like !wah! we have another language, not only english there is universally recognised but chinese also


ya and we all know that korea is a place well known for pork, BBQ, pork beef chicken, don't know what the muslim eat there leh, I don't see any halal you know muslim must eat


with the halal certified place, don't know what they what can they eat there, majority is korean food what


everywhere we go is korean food korean eatery, how many turkish you really see, they are not so, international like singapore yet, singapore we have a we are too multiracial


so we have a lot of different cuisine from the malay india the western, any type of cuisine you can find a korean is too, their kind, you hardly see any cuisine you see some chinese


cuisine but, majority <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> korean food leh, a bit of japanese lah but, mediterranean cuisine is the way out


oh ya, we wanted to go one actually was part of the itinerary, oh but I think


we plan, but never execute, or or because uh with get ourselves lost all the time, ha, I think so, cause you try to figure out the MRT which station to alight


the direction which exit they are not like singapore train station, I feel exit I think the most complex station that we have is city hall and raffles place, but they every station is like city hall and raffles place here


it was very hard to find


auntie, sister, a lot of relatives don't know buy what, mask, cream, I remember a lot of things I think you buy more than me, I think you are like the big spender at Myeondong


I only buy hair conditioner and lipstick


yes yes yes, but I think, I cannot remember how much sing it course lah but


I know you complain #bo hua#, is unique, and you say can sell in singapore


no it taste a lot better than ours fondue both no and I remember but definitely taste a lot better than the fondue


I don't I recall it is not just simple chocolate coating leh, there's some other thing coated with it like some kind of mochi, chocolate, strawberry


something very unique you can't find in singapore and you complain very expensive yet you say can sell here


ha


the grill, the grilled mochi then you put or you can choose savoury or sweet sauce, !wah!, that one damn nice leh


!wah! I think it look like our singapore #muah chee# but our #muah chee# is oily, and put inside a pot mixed with oil, but they are, mochi is hard


like just come out from the fridge, then you have to barbecue to soften it so that you got this charred flavour, then you, instead of, mix it with peanut or sesame like us they give you the option to choose the, sauce


whether you want savoury or sweet, than singapore one, for the same quantity almost the same quality, you you actually buy cheaper there


and in singapore #muah chee#


cheese, I like cheese, I think they ever bring in to singapore before someone brought that concept into singapore and sell it at waterway point


but uh it didn't take off, because I recall, I haven't even get the chance to try it and the next thing I when I search for it was already gone,


no or use, pig's intestine


then we start


ya but it's not lah too bad or the why are we went to korea one is at Busan not at


so, I remember it was at Busan, it was one of the recommended market, that you can choose your seafood, eh at the level one that you go up to level two where they prepare for you in a style that you want


and give you rice, and a lot of free flow side dish


the one at the Gaoxiong one [loh]


no lah I didn't <mandarin>撞那个:zhuang na ge</mandarin> building, ya not ya


hit right into, the stairs


which seafood restaurants should we go to, then <mandarin>我们看最多:wo men kan zui duo</mandarin> local <mandarin>的就是:de jiu shi</mandarin> very singaporean


is the rice because it's free flow


hungry


we did, we, we did, the prawns, it's cheap


definitely their seafood is cheaper one, ya


!wah!, I know japan korea taiwan they are all well known for, their seafood, because they are near to the ocean


(hmm), I think a bowl only


, but for the price of, it is already


two dollar plus leh that one is give you, and glutinous rice, less than two dollars leh


you go Gaoxiong first, because we have to because when we reached


it's better to straight away take the bullet train to Gaoxiong, because ultimately we have to fly back from, taiwan Taoyuan again, so, we go to Gaoxiong


then we come back, to, Taipei


c, but after which when we, rich reach, Gaoxiong weather was good, (hmm)


[orh] <mandarin>我们去过:wo men qu guo</mandarin> Taipei a few time already


ah


but that one is at Taichung, (hmm), we went Taichung first, take the wedding shot, then travel back to Taipei, and we went to hong kong, where the weather that is really good because is at err


ya Genting


that's why we went Genting last year


ah, they are similar to singapore, very bustling very city, it is like a city that never sleeps


wait lah, [orh], #pasar malam#


we never, think only you went during a business trip


actually brought you to the local the local colleague, but not with me


[orh]


but they use a pink colour sweet sauce,


I prefer the but <mandarin>它的卤肉饭:ta de lu rou fan</mandarin> is definitely better than here, and and the beef cube


the same thing as the taiwan, beef cube, but there are definitely more expensive compared to taiwan prices


and the thing is even worth it


then that one will be tori Q already


ah, we have what the only thing that here don't have is the beef cube, we have the


pork one, the chicken one the <mandarin>鸡排:ji pai</mandarin> also have, but we just don't have beef cube


of their fullness they will never eat until hundred percent that's why you see japan the japanese cuisine


portions is usually very small, [loh]


that's why the japanese has the world record for longevity is attributed to their diet


you know, english name <mandarin>我们是已经讲好了:wo men shi yi jing jiang hao le</mandarin> he will be called nathanel


the date and time the baby is born, marketing


err


then you have two more months to go, the baby is due in october now is august


confirm <mandarin>是学游泳:shi xue you yong</mandarin> lah


you you, ya he's a boy if it doesn't even know how to, swim next time how to serve NS, I don't want to put him at a disadvantage


and, high level that will take very long because they need, if <mandarin>你都没有拿到:ni dou mei you na dao</mandarin> that three cert for life saving you can even be a certified lifeguard also


let alone train people, you


the phonics, you you mean the english, phonics, oh that one is to train their pronunciation, you know every single alphabet <mandarin>都是有自己的:dou shi you zi ji de</mandarin> pronunciation


that level lah but I think now is very common for, to pick the right to pick up the right, pronunciation, benefit <mandarin>他们以后学:ta men yi hou xue</mandarin> oral


the option for you to top up, then <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> during, err after <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> break time, then those who, err enrichment class and they will bring them to this separate class if


bring the kids out, by yourself and you pay additional either way you have to pay


parents <mandarin>都是想要给孩子有一个:dou shi xiang yao gei hai zi you yi ge</mandarin> head start, so they wanted to learn as many thing as possible, to put them


in a favourable position before they officially start their academic years like primary one


academics and, the artistic side


yup then because the research


shows that, in, in class, and they can't sit still longer also


just sit down there and play the piano, that means you can easily concentrate in class also what


!aiya! know


insect


grasshopper <mandarin>看谁的:kan shui de</mandarin> grasshopper <mandarin>比较厉害:bi jiao li hai</mandarin> can kill the other one or catch a spider and see whose spider is stronger


eh <mandarin>拿一个:na yi ge</mandarin> container <mandarin>他发放放里面:ta fa fang fang li mian</mandarin> put a few grass inside


nathanial


easily, why not, I scared, ha ha, then <mandarin>你去你带他去去楼下抓不要叫我:ni qu ni dai ta qu qu lou xia zhua bu yao jiao wo</mandarin> okay


no lah we are not going to the do <mandarin>满月满月:man yue man yue</mandarin> because


eh <mandarin>不用做到这样:bu yong zuo dao zhe yang</mandarin> complicated


!wah! if <mandarin>他真的很:ta zhen de hen</mandarin> heavy


three point five KG, I think I can push out baby also


don't know


and if you didn't even dilate till the requirement for natural delivery then the water bag already burst, then you will have to go for a C sec [loh]


Choi Daikatlaisi <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> wish list <mandarin>我以为我帮你生一个孩子我有什么:wo yi wei wo bang ni sheng yi ge hai zi wo you shen me</mandarin> wish list <mandarin>你送给要我:ni song gei yao wo</mandarin> leh


I don't need <mandarin>那一块石头:na yi kuai shi tou</mandarin> lah okay I can always wear, wear my <mandarin>石头:shi tou</mandarin> go out


err follow


when <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> citizen pay very minimal or almost like nothing for their, for their education


I think before they even talk about the study the study I think the course of study is only expensive when they're going into poly now I think most importantly is uni uni school fee is really high


err moderate the childcare costs childcare costs is too significant, the range is too wide


sparkle tots which is by our government man, and uh, the high and one is like the eton school house those are the international brand, I think there should be some form of a cost control


to make it a bit more affordable, for them, for majority err,


ya, infant care is, no guarantee


because you can only register when <mandarin>有那个:you na ge</mandarin> birth cert but we don't have so by the time the baby is born and we're there is also no vacancy, it's not so easy and straightforward


and we have just so many, consideration, there is I think


err the parental leave


or the maternity leave lah, ya if you want to take up to nine months I think the first five month is fully paid


the subsequent four month you only get half the pay but you still get paid singapore you can also take nine months are subject to your company approval lah, but the thing is that we only have sixteen weeks if you convert into months is actually less than four months


you don't get, any pay you are going on unpaid, and in singapore context how can both, err the husband and wife


challenging I would say


what


ya <mandarin>都还没有你看我们现在:dou hai mei you ni kan wo men xian zai</mandarin> err <mandarin>还没有生:hai mei you sheng</mandarin> we are just only for the checkout, till the delivery


I think just only the checkup, the routine checkup, definitely more than five K, because all the, prenatal test, but fortunately <mandarin>的是全部都是:de shi quan bu dou shi</mandarin> covered by <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> company the insurance but how many people in singapore have such luxury


of err, company paying for it


private hospital the first class, err the a ward everything, that will be from, from you conceive right up to you deliver, you are spending at least twenty K almost twenty K already


almost, depending on


your your ward lah of course also depends on your the test and how many visit have you gone maybe is lesser cheaper lah but more than ten K for sure one, more than, I think


old couple


usually, I think they did


but I think they extended up they remove the forty years old limit so now more older couple especially the women who is above forty <mandarin>他们都可以用他们的:ta men dou ke yi yong ta men de</mandarin> CPF for the idea of treatment


the more than forty five years old trying to conceive, through <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> IVF


they are saying that while the government, err released scrap <mandarin>掉那个:diao na ge</mandarin> age limit it helps


I think all the developed nation will face the same issue because uh we spent a very long years in education, average in singapore a guy, are considering they have to serve NS, by that time the graduate from uni they are already lah almost twenty five


then after that you still need to Chiong <mandarin>你的:ni de</mandarin> career mah, by the time you, and the female even if you study your uni you graduate with twenty one


(hmm)


okay let's start our topic, uh anyway, so you were thinking of going to taiwan what we want to do in taiwan


like <mandarin>你们那时去哪里:ni men na shi qu na li</mandarin> shopping


oh one whole the underground shopping area ah, oh okay


okay


should go <mandarin>花莲清境农场:hua lian qing jing nong chang</mandarin> stay a few days oh so cool


or we can go like <mandarin>澎湖:peng hu</mandarin> have you heard of <mandarin>澎湖:peng hu</mandarin> before


is like kind of like a beach place, err actually I don't know the exact place


but I heard right <mandarin>如果你要去九分的话:ru guo ni yao qu jiu fen de hua</mandarin> it is better if you stay overnight <mandarin>因为它的晚上的风景:yin wei ta de wan shang de feng jing</mandarin> is the one is nicer


err I'm not very sure this one I never check, I think there is those hotel that I'm sure there is, I never stay there before, my sister went there that time and then she stayed there for one night she say because ya like she heard about it lah that you should stay there one night and then <mandarin>他们就:ta men jiu</mandarin> stay <mandarin>在那里一天:zai na li yi tian</mandarin> lor then <mandarin>在那里看他们的那些风景晚上因为通常九分如果你你只是白天去的话他们那个车:zai na li kan ta men de nei xie feng jing wan shang yin wei tong chang jiu fen ru guo ni ni zhi shi bai tian qu de hua ta men na ge che</mandarin> by certain time <mandarin>他们就没有车了所以你就要走了所以如果你可以:ta men jiu mei you che le suo yi ni jiu yao zou le suo yi ru guo ni ke yi</mandarin> stay <mandarin>一晚的话你可以看那个晚上的风景:yi wan de hua ni ke yi kan na ge wan shang de feng jing</mandarin> then it will be more like a spirited away <mandarin>风景:feng jing</mandarin> that you know


the night lights


oh ya ya you can usually usually you go and see the the you go all the way to the top right you see somewhere below that their houses that kind of places right


yes, yes, it's like no it's like how the <mandarin>居民:ju min</mandarin> how they do it also what they also are they also travel everyday to go and work right okay maybe you can try I can foresee the adventurous


, err not, really that


still got other places I want to go at this moment cannot really think of any taiwan one I only


can think about, oh


!wah!, !wah!, stay there for one night


no no no err okay <mandarin>阳明山:yang ming shan</mandarin> actually it's not ya ya ya it's ya ya ya, ya and you will they will actually got coach to ferry you up also


don't know leh haven't really think about that yet it depends on how many days of leave do you have


I wouldn't just want to be in Taipei because err also I already went taiwan for two times


I did went like I think <mandarin>台中高雄:tai zhong gao xiong</mandarin> before like previously (hmm) but actually because, all the places I went to, it was has been so long


ten years ya ten years ago than yours, I went once with my family, then I went once with my with my friend


places that you yourself maybe sometimes won't go or like you yourself


like the tour don't really bring you to these places <mandarin>可是:ke shi</mandarin> people will go lor


#xiang bi shi#


then if you you can sit down if you just now you die one that kind of like cliff you know oh involve use one huge rock that is shape of elephant with the nose


(hmm) ya that's why like <mandarin>如果这种:ru guo zhe zhong</mandarin> driver <mandarin>他载过很多人他们应该知道很多不同的地方:ta zai guo hen duo ren ta men ying gai zhi dao hen duo bu tong de di fang</mandarin> maybe can ask try asking whether does he know this place where is it or not


ah


you, it's gigantic


it's like the whale rock, at WMD, bigger than that


oh


because that's the most beautiful spot that they can take their photo


actually I I I think lah as in not <mandarin>四五天:si wu tian</mandarin> maybe like nine days so like five days leave, ya ya ya but that one is after that mah so five, japan can go longer


I thought japan is supposed to be the following year, ya isn't that supposed to be the, eh eh you said one


no no ah taiwan doesn't have to be winter time, but why why must is it be oh you mean like like december, don't want very cold don't want no no no we are supposed to go and see sakura hello


next year or next next year, two zero two one


go korea okay lah, so that's why japan is the following year, you you we can't go japan next this coming year may what you need to save remember you need to save you said so yourself


you are gonna buy a lot of things


ah, ah near mount Fuji lor the that that time I told you the full ah suddenly forgot what's the name of it


Kawaguchiko, I went there that one where I went, it's actually near, that that place is not a region actually it's at Tokyo, it's like it's at the <mandarin>边缘:bian yuan</mandarin> is at the <mandarin>边缘:bian yuan</mandarin> of Tokyo


ya take train down then err from over there you can see the view of mount Fuji lor, then there's a lake ya, that's I think that's one of the places err of course there are other places there will also have like nice scenery


if I'm not wrong maybe I think it's Osaka ah


(hmm) that one is not not not Hokkaido ah


(hmm)


then


then that's why then of course lah that definitely actually figurines are I would say ya depends on where it's made in lor <mandarin>如果是:ru guo shi</mandarin> made in japan <mandarin>当然是在:dang ran shi zai</mandarin> japan <mandarin>买比较便宜的嘛难道有在别的国家比较便宜的:mai bi jiao pian yi de ma nan dao you zai bie de guo jia bi jiao pian yi de</mandarin> meh yes so ya in a way it's like ya lor if you want to buy Totoro also


yes, that's in Tokyo


err there are there are ya they are still developing


never go before actually I don't mind ya


ya everywhere is different like different disneyland they have different things that they are famous for they are different shows also there then <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> japan the disneyland <mandarin>有那个:you na ge</mandarin> duffy


kindgom you and your kingdom hearts


but hor <mandarin>就算我们去:jiu suan wo men qu</mandarin> disneyland I still want to go my mochi high


it's not cheap


(hmm) (hmm), knew I knew it of course I'm right ya


as in, err hot spring as when you go Kawaguchiko a lot of their Ryokan would already have <mandarin>那种:na zhong</mandarin> toast


some <mandarin>温泉:wen quan</mandarin> lor, their ryokan


(hmm) <mandarin>然后:ran hou</mandarin> hor <mandarin>我跟你讲超超美的因为:wo gen ni jiang chao chao mei de yin wei</mandarin> hor


so morning right yes during the morning right then the sun will rise right you see the sun rise on yes ya around and not actually the sun comes out the sky starts to get bright


yes ya, actually, the sun comes out, the sky starts to get bright actually before dawn before our dawn time


it is lah it is but we're going in spring, I that time I went in


june, slightly cold, inside aircon room maybe, maybe slightly colder a bit


nineteen


no <mandarin>湿冷:shi leng</mandarin> it's not just cold is it's not just cold is wet and cold, so you will feel those bone chill, that they are


but <mandarin>如果你四五月去的话还好因为他没有那么冷如果你差不多二三月去的话他们他们的雪已经开始在融了:ru guo ni si wu yue qu de hua hai hao yin wei ta mei you na me leng ru guo ni cha bu duo er san yue qu de hua ta men ta men de xue yi jing kai shi zai rong le</mandarin> then that would that will be the time where it will be that will be already cold like <mandarin>湿冷:shi leng</mandarin> because they're


february, april ya april time will be better, don't need, autumn clothes


ya if you go late autumn that's going to winter already what, but that is almost to winter already so that's why and because when you go there you go up we always stay up on the hill, please remember


they are use it they are use to it


done, but different mah like it's like if it's like you ask them because like in singapore you know it's always so hot


so that's why like, if you go there you will definitely feel cold we're not used to it but to them they're very used to this weather and especially actually in korea even like, sometimes they're, likes <mandarin>牛牛:niu niu</mandarin> like summer right no is is hot yes but you know when their summer right then they rain


when the rain comes the wind super strong it's also very cold last night during dawn remember we always wear a very thick jacket but, that's why during dawn remember we always wear a very thick jacket


we we we are we are not used to it that's why to ask you need that super thick jacket, ah, uh you pray for


(uh huh) that's why I wanna say !huh! you there no you only there for forty five minutes joking


eh if let's say I we really going like, we need to have winter clothes I can always borrow clothes from my sisters


then that time you have right, so you bought, (uh huh)


(hmm)


ya because it's the furthest away from your heart


my boots, my poots I can go and find more boots


yes it is expensive


it, both, their food, okay leh


full is like a meal lor it's like a normal meal lor, maybe not enough depends on where you go also some places like that time I went to this place they sell omelette rice


their rice we eat a lot, ya ya ya ya I don't know whether is it that that place the place I went I don't know whether whether is it that one


twenty plus sing lor ya just normal restaurant price lor, yes yes yes so it's equally the same but the


they don't have Kopitiam like us , no , that's why I say seven eleven lor


food lah but ya but not the very <mandarin>健康:jian kang</mandarin> kind of food , ya but if I want no leh this kind of food you know I will do I will buy back singapore to eat


oh no breakfast


breakfast err because we stay hotel they got like some place for breakfast already, then some other places you just buy bread or something lor


free and easy, so


(hmm) see how can go your convenience store and buy and eat that for breakfast ya, ya, ya those normal food lor like, Ramen omelette rice yes


yes, yes, that one okay lah that one definitely need to do one ah


!huh! Ginza !wah! Ginza very expensive eh, ya Ginza is a district in Tokyo


err stay with eh wait ah let me think ah when I'm in Tokyo itself <mandarin>我们住好像是:wo men zhu hao xiang shi</mandarin> motel


actually not very Ulu, no definitely not


take no take train lor, ya ya


yes, that's the most important already mah


there will be other places you want to go there's like somewhere else lor so actually it doesn't really matter <mandarin>然后如果你你想要做那种如果你要住:ran hou ru guo ni ni xiang yao zuo na zhong ru guo ni yao zhu</mandarin> central true lah there's <mandarin>有些地方可能比较方便:you xie di fang ke neng bi jiao fang bian</mandarin> like Shibuya a lot of people stays there but definitely <mandarin>就会比较贵是啊因为是市中心市中心啊:jiu hui bi jiao gui shi a yin wei shi shi zhong xin shi zhong xin a</mandarin> ya their shopping district mah


the place that I stay is a bit off central cheaper is cheaper, it's cheaper, but yes but if cause it's near the MRT and it's not that far away also


(hmm) what is cheap cheap what is average price what is expensive to you


I think the place I stay consider cheap already leh, how much is one night oh I really cannot remember already eh


, ya #lap sup#


PS, transportation oh sorry I'm a public transport person


definitely <mandarin>我不会去住那个地方:wo bu hui qu zhu na ge di fang</mandarin> that is very far away from the train station


(mmhmm)


, you need some time to plan one leh


why is there suddenly drilling sound


irritating leh


ya, I think our ticket


is seven hundred each, so like because <mandarin>你去日本他们的:ni qu ri ben ta men de</mandarin> budget <mandarin>也没有:ye mei you</mandarin> budget <mandarin>到哪里去:dao na li qu</mandarin> then you might as well take the better one right then you take jetstar the budget there's no food


some more, !wow! it's err six seven hours flight what, ya lor, yes is there will definitely be a meal that you will spend on the plane itself


so I I think I would rather now set a little bit more


yes definitely, that's why that's why it's better that's why that's why that's why it's better because out of japan cheap is the year after and if we know next year the whole COVID situation really much better already then we can buy already


SIA also have, promotion ya always have, not three four hundred lah


Shinkansen ya ya actually transportation in, transportation itself in japan is expensive


but then


uh yes definitely but ya it's really not cheap, ya, don't don't think so much now anyway


save money, I I when I went okay let me let me tell you how much I spend when I went there, I think I spent around


I spent around two, eh eh how much well maybe two thousand five around there, one person err no actually one and one third person


two thousand ya around there


but we went like nine ten days only, so if you want to go longer, like two weeks then you'll be


if there is no that you said what that money is to use to renovate


yes definitely it's important to save


ya, oh when we want to go ah when ah don't know leh need to see when we can even go


we don't know when they will open the lane to let us fly, the other half of the year


actually as I actually mentioned that time I I'm actually


so I think it's possible


ya ya that's that's why I say, yes, no as it is not a subjective it's I'm fine that's why even said that it's okay then like that's why I said I'm contemplating


because if let's say we take now, no no no no not not now as in like we take now then in the future usually lah I would say <mandarin>很多人也不会跟他们的孩子:hen duo ren ye bu hui gen ta men de hai zi</mandarin> take photo mah


which is why let's say, might might as well then we can save this money then use it in the in this way ya because in a way in a way we do have our wedding photo already


right, ding ding ding ding <mandarin>我们应该想一下我们的:wo men ying gai xiang yi xia wo men de</mandarin> background <mandarin>要放什么一下:yao fang shen me yi xia</mandarin> leh <mandarin>我已经:wo yi jing</mandarin> send <mandarin>你那个:ni na ge</mandarin> photo Liao [orh]


I will pay you in money, Kaching Kaching


what you mean by singapore got no place to go, 大 方, Sentosa, got ya USS is opened


USS ah I know the luge the luge, have you played the luge before, it's like <mandarin>他的这个车他们是往下泼走得:ta de zhe ge che ta men shi wang xia po zou de</mandarin> then you just <mandarin>很像有点像:hen xiang you dian xiang</mandarin> go kart <mandarin>这样可是他他不是:zhe yang ke shi ta ta bu shi</mandarin> run by engine <mandarin>的它会自己:de ta hui zi ji</mandarin> just <mandarin>自动走因为:zi dong zou yin wei</mandarin> okay lah <mandarin>有一点啦:you yi dian la</mandarin> but <mandarin>因为他是个:yin wei ta shi ge</mandarin> slope


Sentosa have, luge, Sentosa got a lot of things to do now


ya, err if you go overseas maybe she will


she's not that that much older from us actually, no she's one year older than your sister, she's three years older than you


I just now, , it's okay anyway I registered with my age they asked for it


ya she is she wants to buy, ya for investment, no lah <mandarin>买屋子:mai wu zi</mandarin> BTO BTO


no not not <mandarin>他自己一个人住:ta zi ji yi ge ren zhu</mandarin> investment so she will buy the house


err she's thinking she buy the house maybe her parents and her stay in the house they can rent out their current house, ya, somewhere in Jurong I think, but it's a condo


sorry, not super rich


but, her older brother I eh I think, no leh I think he do leh, not married yet, elder


don't know, okay,


plan for next year, ya, you can't even go anywhere


ya and then and then the thing is you go vacation in singapore everywhere is expensive, then it's like, to me lah someone Jio me to go staycation I will go lah


you asked me to pay for your vacation I will, think twice about it, ya


ya lah and cause and the thing is the difference is because <mandarin>我们很久没有:wo men hen jiu mei you</mandarin> meet, we are meeting at once every week when why do we need to spend the money to go and stay somewhere else go and talk


then you can you can you can save that money to buy your figurines your Totoro in japan, japan trip


(hmm) <mandarin>可以去哪里啊:ke yi qu na li a</mandarin> (hmm) !aiya! <mandarin>不一定要去:bu yi ding yao qu</mandarin> staycation mah just <mandarin>去那种去:qu na zhong qu</mandarin> Sentosa lah


什 什么


don't know, don't know, I want to go, service, so happy that my birthday is on service day


then, is it then the god can wish my happy birthday, (hmm)


true don't know leh see how at that time no lah eh wait ah we're group what, no I think ours is not last week (hmm) I'm very sad if is last week then it's possible


because we will be a rotating anyway mah, but <mandarin>如果:ru guo</mandarin> but then <mandarin>问题是我我们:wen ti shi wo wo men</mandarin> I think <mandarin>我看到的:wo kan dao de</mandarin> schedule <mandarin>我们的好象不是:wo men de hao xiang bu shi</mandarin> last week of the month (hmm) <mandarin>我的生日应该是:wo de sheng ri ying gai shi</mandarin> last week of the month, so sad


<mandarin>所以不是我们的:suo yi bu shi wo men de</mandarin> week


individual, when we have vaccination, testings in indonesia


oh that's fast


actually <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> leh <mandarin>因为那时候:yin wei na shi hou</mandarin> march <mandarin>的时候就已经有:de shi hou jiu yi jing you</mandarin> vaccine <mandarin>出来了然后他们就已经在:chu lai liao ran hou ta men jiu yi jing zai</mandarin> test Liao <mandarin>所以真的有可能在:suo yi zhen de you ke neng zai</mandarin> phase three


I think this wearing mask thing ya because you also don't know who will, yes and no I think because the thing is even we have vaccine you do not know who takes the vaccine who has not taken the vaccine, ya


but they say the vaccine won't be that expensive though they will try to sell it cheap, so that


like I heard that there are even maybe I I forgot is it WHO or somewhere they are going to try to sell to like those ah like even err third world nations maybe like as cheap as three USD


now USD is one point two only, oh no


yup, okay <mandarin>好了我们可以:hao le wo men ke yi</mandarin> end Liao


I don't want to go to the usual places as Ximending I go before already


then uh if can go <mandarin>花莲:hua lian</mandarin> eh and you know the the <mandarin>清境农场:qing jing nong chang</mandarin> the place your previously eugene went there before, then he took all very nice photos especially is those I wanna go to natural places


err there's one area lah that you know especially we went there to buy a lot like like those


#ah gong# like those figurines


like <mandarin>去吃东西而已:qu chi dong xi er yi</mandarin> right then, uh I mean <mandarin>晚上有街头表演:wan shang you jie tou biao yan</mandarin> lah but that's not like very interesting also, ya then previously we went there, we went to the party world to sing K also so like the whole few days we then there you just ready to eat


and also play lah ya but I heard from my friends I mean taiwan it's not just that lah it has very nice sceneries before never leh where whereas, yes yes yes yes I think we should put that in our itinerary because I want to my I heard from my taiwanese friend that err <mandarin>台东:tai dong</mandarin> is very nice also


never leh where's, but <mandarin>澎湖:peng hu</mandarin> is Taipei or Taidong


we went to see the <mandarin>黄逢十:huang feng shi</mandarin> which I don't know where is it but then after that we went to <mandarin>九分:jiu fen</mandarin> and <mandarin>十分:shi fen</mandarin> right but then <mandarin>十分坦白讲其实没有很多东西可以看:shi fen tan bai jiang qi shi mei you hen duo dong xi ke yi kan</mandarin> I mean of course


you know you go there to experience a spirited away environment because the movie spirited away was inspired by, err <mandarin>九分:jiu fen</mandarin> right but


right then, you just walk all the way up then the ending there you just see the whole view of like how <mandarin>九分:jiu fen</mandarin> is like


but Airbnb ah, there got hotel, you got stay there before ah, then how you know


yes yes, ohh, ohh, I don't mind leh ya ya the thing ya correct the main point about, like <mandarin>九分:jiu fen</mandarin> is actually the night lights but


then ya <mandarin>真的是很窄:zhen de shi hen zhai</mandarin> lah I mean a coach bus like I was lucky that I felt that we didn't go with a coach bus is it's a good thing because a lot of like I see a lot of coach bus stuck in the middle of the road especially because the roads are very big


right so, we need think of a way how to grow up lor but


oh but <mandarin>九分很高:jiu fen hen gao</mandarin> leh okay maybe we can try I can consider I think it's quite interesting very adventurous, you can try that, ya other than that err


oh


then <mandarin>你还放天灯:ni hai fang tian deng</mandarin> is a very <mandarin>破坏环境的一个:po huai huan jing de yi ge</mandarin> act a kind of action ya so I think it's better that we just maybe we skip that lah other than that err, still got other places you want to go


where in <mandarin>花莲:hua lian</mandarin> you want to go


oh oh oh oh oh ya ya ya ya, !wah!


oh okay <mandarin>可以:ke yi</mandarin> plan


it's a part of what, so <mandarin>山:shan</mandarin> got place to stay lah, okay then like that uh fair enough okay can I think we can put that as our itinerary let me think still got other places I want to go err but we not going taiwan right we want to stay there for a few days


then hopefully if you also want to like take your wedding photo also can then then maybe err we want to stay how many days you wanna stay there


I can always take forward I mean bring forward from like this year's to next year hopefully ah don't know need ask my boss first because, I don't know if they allow in the first place but if they allow definitely will be good but I don't if, they will allow err employee to be not in a company for like two weeks I think should be can lah let's see


I also don't know as you know you know the company is not very big then design agency, if there is project extend you know I'm the one mainly handling like the current capital staff program or like


project there are working on then I'm the person that is mainly illustrating all the posters and stuff right so I not sure if, they will let me just MIA ah ya but I can ask lah but I mean ideally the best is I hope that you know we can maybe stay there I mean to be fair taiwan one week is


too much unless you, I mean one week still okay but it really depends I think we need to travel around if it's just going Taipei then, it's very boring ah


but ten years ago right


with your sisters parents right, ya like in between what was the how many years after then you went with your friend


then <mandarin>不是很:bu shi hen</mandarin> boring


they won't hunt those places lah I I agree like this last, last year I went taiwan, then I went to the because very nice lah we actually hired a coach right I think that was about five of us then the uncle brought us around lah then we actually didn't he introduced us to go and see this thing called #xiang bi shi# <mandarin>没有听过:mei you ting guo</mandarin> right #xiang bi shi#


err but err, some some tribal


tribal some tribes a rock that has a phase of a tribal err leader yes ya then you know when you talk about rocks are quite interested right I wanna see rocks that has like images so he brought us to see the elephant nose #xiang pi shi# lor ya it's a huge !wah! I think I bring you there I think you would be shocked man


it's not like a small little elephant is a is err how to say it's like a <mandarin>绝壁:jue bi</mandarin> that kind, like ya means it's a whole whole rock right, then if you you can see down if you jump down you die one that kind of like cliff you know yes and in front of you is one huge rock that is shape of elephant with the nose inside in like dipping down into the ocean


like <mandarin>如果:ru guo</mandarin> they know how to drive and go there because


it's it's not the common thing because even I also never heard before booking <mandarin>位子让妈买一个星座光:wei zi rang ma mai yi ge xing zuo guang</mandarin> drivers right


ya can ask him again lor, ya if if it's like <mandarin>顺路啦:shun lu la</mandarin> ya because


on the journey to <mandarin>野柳:ye liu</mandarin> to <mandarin>九分:jiu fen</mandarin> that time, he just randomly ask actually <mandarin>这个这里附近有一个:zhe ge zhe li fu jin you yi ge</mandarin> #xiang bi shi# <mandarin>你们要看一下嘛也是蛮出名的啦就是有很多旅客都会:ni men yao kan yi xia ma ye shi man chu ming de la jiu shi you hen duo lv ke dou hui</mandarin> like stop by to take a photo like that ya I have I still have the photo if


later I can show you ya is what you know I thinkthe photo doesn't justify its magnificent is like it's really quite huge it's not right quite is huge ya, it's !wah! it's it's big ya right


whale rock which whale rock, WMD, I think ya almost eh no bigger than that ya I not joking really is like a cliff like that if you jump down you die ah ya you jump down you you you you that's why they have


like they have like tapes to tape up certain areas, but you know as, all those chinese these china people like like don't scared of death one they will just cross that line then they'll just go to the most dangerous spot and pose there


ya and it's the most kind of how to say, you can see the the whole shape of the elephant clearer lah


but anyway uh <mandarin>台湾如果可以去很像我哎呀可能是吃五天我觉得:tai wan ru guo ke yi qu hen xiang wo ai ya ke neng shi chi wu tian wo jue de</mandarin> okay ah <mandarin>不用然后去几个:bu yong ran hou qu ji ge</mandarin> spot


but is we gonna go to the same because taiwan and japan very near only leh


japan following year two zero two !huh! really ah with you , oh because you don't want to go during winter time is it


no no no japan japan, ya because, oh ya forgot


next next year ah two zero two two zero what's next year ah two zero two one, are we going korea, korea you drop ah, then !wah! I need to wait for I need to wait for one then I cannot go already ah


uh !wah! okay can ya I know ya we need to save, oh my god really ah !aiya! japan yes japan most likely I gonna buy a lot of things


it'll be more exciting if we plan about japan though because, I want to go japan for a very long time japan, japan, (hmm) I don't know man but err Tokyo maybe but actually to be frank a lot of my friends they went japan they


they go to the more scenic places ya scenic places I I don't know what's the I don't know which region it is but the only thing I know is like, err, there is more like


Kawaguchiko, but what region is that


is the is called Kawaguchiko the whole place or what, oh it's at Tokyo ah but Tokyo quite bad leh


!wow! !wow!, Osaka ya I heard I heard Osaka if I heard I mean err from my research and history of watching a lot of Animes in the past err I heard like if you want to see a lot of like historical japan stuff and buildings and architecture Kyoto will be a good place ya other than that err if you want to see more modern places Tokyo will be better Osaka is famous for (hmm) their seafood I mean in terms of food wise lah


I'm not sure what kind of their Osaka is near the sea if I'm not wrong, ah that's why I heard lah but


we need do some research ya for japan, I I'm not the Otaku kind that you know I need go Akihabara and see all the figurines I think, I am past that phase already we can do then in taiwan taiwan cheaper actually not leh taiwan not cheaper leh because that day I went taiwan that time


then you know me and my friends we went to <mandarin>西门町:xi men ding</mandarin> what then, he bought this huge Gundam and he was like contemplating whether to buy it because, err it's not cheap lah hundred few hundred dollars in SGD lah but taiwan I think slightly cheaper then when we take the plane back to singapore we took AirAsia mah jetstar I think jetstar


then the air steward, saw him like hugging the whole he that one you know you can't put inside the luggage one right then, actually we play cheat a lot already ah we, like I think we we bought a lot of things cannot put in your luggage because you put your luggage that is over the


the scale already right, then he what he saw that Gundam he was saying you know this is cheaper in japan, then then he we ask him lah oh is it really is cheaper in japan those figurines like all these kind of, like Gundam model figures it is maybe it's cheaper in japan


ah I don't want made in china ya lah will be better , ya


I want Totoro but I don't think I not sure okay how


not sure but I think japan, that time you say the store you went with your sisters right you got sell all the Totoro stuff at Tokyo, we can research I think we should research on what other places sell Totoro and you never go do you went to (hmm) Judeo you went to the studio Ghibli museum


that one in Tokyo also ah, why everything in Tokyo I heard there is a studio Ghibli, theme park eh, is it still in developing is it gonna be the year we go


ah most likely will delay, !aiyo!, (uh huh)


oh sad, eh japan got disneyland you got go before, you want go you want go yes yes yes go disneyland , I but I I I heard you know it's a bit if it there is a I never go disneyland my life before leh


like I I you never go disneyland before right, ya I, I my me my friend went for the disneyland in LA lah it's, very different from the disneyland in japan ya but


ya correct, yes that's why the disneyland on kingdom heart ya no because kingdom heart came from japan it's collaborated you know effort with disney with that's why they have a special area if I am not wrong


if I'm not wrong that has kingdom hearts, I think can go why mount Fuji lah not an issue you can I we see ya we can we can plan a few days and we go mount Fuji then as a few days we go Tokyo lor I not sure where is disneyland but


we see we see how because I believe disneyland won't be cheap lah and you go in you see all those very cute disney store you know those mickey mouse you if I see something, from kingdom hearts I will a bit crazy so


you are right next year we budget trip so we can, save more to enjoy more when we go japan , ya, ya because because ya taiwan go before already so no need spend so much money


ya and err hot spring see how lor ya because you went with your parents before right the hot spring, I must see my skin condition whether I can take the hot spring but the I heart is quite good lah very relaxing scenery very nice also


you stay in their hotel there also ah, then you sleep on the floor ah


with the with Watami, Tatami is it, can sleep well one ah


oh holy moly


oh holy moly, oh that's the best dawn prayer if you do dawn there right because I think around finish dawn prayer the sun up already just nice coming up


quite early but, really but according to seasons, but according to seasons one right I like, I don't know it's summer time the night is longer or winter time the night is longer than the day shorter something like that


oh ya you're right, is spring cold or not


like like there lah, slightly colder twenty okay maybe nineteen, temperature I think is one thing ah is also see the is it like the cold air the wind


(uh huh), (uh huh)


so it's colder ah, oh that's that sounds very nice


then we wear we still get winter clothes


are you sure autumn and winter is almost the same that time I went korea autumn is almost winter already is cold so cold but okay we went I that time I went end of, when did I went end of october


ya cold freaking cold sia, oh that's true, ya that's true, ya that's why no leh I thought okay ah there's no correct but I also don't know how explain but


I I drop down when I reached korea that time, when we I took a bus I I went to Daejeon we went Daejeon wait for bus right, freaking cold already leh I think because it's the night also probably


ya so cold I and I I can't really understand I see those koreans walk on the streets you know, eh !wah! <mandarin>我抱的很像:wo bao de hen xiang</mandarin> #ba zhang# Liao leh to them is they only knew one like sweater, to them is like they only need one like sweater


and something inside done for me it's like no man, (uh huh)


ya ya hot hot, ya, so oh okay so (uh huh) ya ya ya I know they always say that dawn please wear a jacket


but you know autumn dawn ah is another is another level it's it's very cold, ah I don't know how I pray for forty five minutes on the lawn


ya I after I pray already right I cannot Tahan I have to go to the cave you know to <mandarin>取暖:qu nuan</mandarin> PSK was outside for an hour, I I I ya ya ya yes I can I can be very frank with you


ya but okay lah I mean I think I was thinking weather we need to prepare winter clothes because winter clothes very expensive that time, I just because I went korea, err in autumn time right I think closed eh no end october to start november is it around there or end november I forgot already


err ya autumn I have cost few hundred dollars already uniqlo sweater is not bad, okay ya forgot you have a lot of Lobangs to borrow


I cannot borrow then how survive on my fats, , !huh!, I bought lah but that one, I have <mandarin>有点后悔:you dian hou hui</mandarin> lah to be frank because I bought the one is uh I bought a uniqlo sweater err which I think it's a wind breaker but it protects the neck because it has a collar right but it doesn't have to hoodie but the thing that actually protects you from the cold right is the hoodie


because it covers your ears, the first place that freeze up right among your of your whole body parts is your ears and your legs or just a waste, ya that's why ya that's why there's a reason why you can pray there for one hour lah out on the lawn then the wind blow because his PSK had a hoodie and not just a hoodie who is quite big plus a hoodie got like your <mandarin>毛毛:mao mao</mandarin> like that


the sides of the hoodie got <mandarin>毛毛:mao mao</mandarin> one right he put that hoodie up then he just take a scarf ya he become Naruto Kakashi already he can be there for very long already then for me it's uh I take the scarf and just like literary <mandarin>包住我的头:bao zhu wo de tou</mandarin> you know or not


then okay lor ya

but is it expensive or not the egg thingy, !aiya! normal ah, next time you go japan you go to a good japanese restaurant, !huh! then we can share one bowl


!huh! <mandarin>贵:gui</mandarin> sia seven eleven eh I heard their seven eleven got a lot of
