then COVID lah cancel lor, so he become <mandarin>反而他被逼:fan er ta bei bi</mandarin> in LA for one year


ya ya ya, (mmhmm)

!wah!


you just don't go lah, (mmhmm)


what about the grades, eh but <mandarin>如果你去那里:ru guo ni qu na li</mandarin> clear <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> pass fail right


oh ya I think our school also like that, (mmhmm)


(mmhmm)


quite good leh I like this, don't be crazy


really but actually singapore <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> safe eh community like <mandarin>没有事:mei you shi</mandarin> lor


helping lah, ya lor


eh but you know that time you remember the, on their social media a lot of people keep posting, like <mandarin>什么讲:shen me jiang</mandarin> government <mandarin>给那些印度人很烂的食物:gei nei xie yin du ren hen lan de shi wu</mandarin> those kind, don't even know if it's true or not


ya but I feel like <mandarin>吃的话:chi de hua</mandarin> that's what I will eat on a daily basis for <mandarin>菜饭:cai fan</mandarin> ya, some people really hor


(mmhmm), but I didn't know importance eh by the way did you buy hospitalisation plan you kind of thing


your dad never buy for you meh, oh ya ya correct correct, please take note of your hospitalisation plan you can ask me I know a lot of things about insurance


ya ya ya ya ya they list it bullet point


(mmhmm), you know her


(mmhmm), I don't know I don't know if it's my friend, I also, you remember like got like I I tell you one of my last time in church right got this girl


like she's not christian lah she just come here then where, no she just come here to play those kind but recently she joined the, insurance industry


then recently hor, then she she she post a lot of those kind of things like you say but I don't know ah I feel like


no I just feel like <mandarin>因为我不是很喜欢她的人格:yin wei wo bu shi hen xi huan ta de ren ge</mandarin> lah so I like I don't even want to follow I just see for fun, but I see her photos were also quite a lot but I don't think it's her lah cause if you say until like so informative right


she's not that, (mmhmm), I think <mandarin>这种:zhe zhong</mandarin> industry or <mandarin>很难:hen nan</mandarin> need a lot of networking


(mmhmm) (mmhmm) (mmhmm)


so if you get a life insurance like


can usually two K plus one eh you can get two K


I thought his commission based like <mandarin>多少:duo shao</mandarin> percent, !wah!


!aiya! nah don't want to do this kind of sales, sales thing


no I don't want take lah , unless the opportunity very good, like, I don't know how to say like maybe <mandarin>它可以:ta ke yi</mandarin> guarantee <mandarin>我变:wo bian</mandarin> pay full time which I think <mandarin>很难:hen nan</mandarin> lah keep fat you know P&G you need


he's very outspoken one you know he's he's like hawking those kind of thing, so <mandarin>你会想它是一个很:ni hui xiang ta shi yi ge hen</mandarin> extrovert <mandarin>的人:de ren</mandarin> right, but he tell me his suffering over there cause <mandarin>他们那里很多:ta men na li hen duo</mandarin> he say like singaporeans are minority ya


!wow! ya a lot then then like the boss tell him to speak up more than like !huh! you already so outspoken eh you still need to speak up more <mandarin>他讲:ta jiang</mandarin> cause, because singaporean got this kind of


before we say something you always think oh maybe I should say this kind of thing right, so <mandarin>他就比人家慢比人家慢那个:ta jiu bi ren jia man bi ren jia man na ge</mandarin> idea <mandarin>就被人家讲掉:jiu bei ren jia jiang diao</mandarin> Liao


ya so he say it's quite competitive but everywhere is the same then I , seventy


I mean P&G is good if you are studying marketing, is like our super high super


you know really l'oreal, what what is the term called ah F, fast moves ah ah


ya ya correct, I keep hearing this from my marketing friend


I didn't know you know like all this law right is ya no I didn't know like P&G <mandarin>这么:zhe me</mandarin> reputable until like I think last year of poly or something then I know about P&G


(mmhmm), (mmhmm), (mmhmm)


then, so you you got submit already


!aiya! don't don't talk about exchange already, the exchange this kind of situation so unsure rather get an internship over here


okay I want to just now I want to ask you right , I watch this I mean I when I was watching variety show I saw this question so this question err is about , how would one deal with like


breakups <mandarin>所以:suo yi </mandarin> hor <mandarin>他有五个:ta you wu ge </mandarin> option <mandarin>给你选所以他有:gei ni xuan suo yi ta you </mandarin> like number one is the people most likely will do number fifth is like err least like people will do <mandarin>所以他五个:suo yi ta wu ge </mandarin> option <mandarin>里面:li mian </mandarin> right <mandarin>他第一个是:ta di yi ge shi </mandarin> drinking, then <mandarin>他的第二个:ta de di er ge </mandarin> right <mandarin>是:shi </mandarin> shopping like excessively shopping


then <mandarin>他第三个:ta di san ge </mandarin> hor <mandarin>是:shi</mandarin> err <mandarin>出去好像去:chu qu hao xiang qu </mandarin> blind date lah <mandarin>去:qu </mandarin> dinner lah you know find someone new, then <mandarin>他的第四个是:ta de di si ge shi </mandarin> working excessively, like you know the more you should work and stuff, then <mandarin>他的第他的第五个:ta de di ta de di wu ge </mandarin> right <mandarin>是:shi </mandarin> err going through a transformation


things like that so , based on all these right how would you rank them, so, ya like like will like like you will do them personally or like the friends around you that kind of thing I mean cause I watch this is like those korean variety show so they have like


various how to say opinions and like you know priority to them and it's quite funny so I want to ask like how will you do then, as shopping as your number one


buy all the things that you want to buy but cause of him you couldn't buy


[orh] so you will dress well it's like like look at me <mandarin>看我穿什么:kan wo chuan shen me </mandarin> that kind of thing okay so your number two leh


uh


new hair new me


hello guys look who's back okay so you will go for


I think right I will, work leh


!hannor! abit #zek ark# hor but I will work leh I will, like how I think I think right like I want to to to if I break up right I will focus that that negative energy into work


because honestly like if I break up right it's not like I can murder him or something like that, but if I got enough money I'm like !hey! !hey! !hey! you know what I mean, no no then no as in !eww! no no that's why if I if I work right if it's someone that I met through work right


I'm going to be his superior <mandarin>看看我看看死字怎样写:kan kan wo kan kan si zi zen yang xie </mandarin> that kind of thing so I'm going to be like like work second thing right I think I will go for shopping, I believe in retail therapy, like though I think you will buy a lot of useless things but then I think like like actually is not just shopping shopping I think it's like transformation like perhaps like I I want to go for a different style that I never try before ah <mandarin>对:dui </mandarin> when <mandarin>以前:yi qian </mandarin> maybe <mandarin>只是穿:zhi shi chuan </mandarin> like <mandarin>一个:yi ge </mandarin> t-shirt <mandarin>跟:gen </mandarin> jeans <mandarin>现在就突然间加个:xian zai jiu tu ran jian jia ge </mandarin> jacket then <mandarin>那个妆那个妆本来画:na ge zhuang na ge zhuang ben lai hua </mandarin> like maybe <mandarin>就是这种:jiu shi zhe zhong </mandarin> korean style then I go like american like thick brows thick eye shadow ah then thick like everything go thick that kind of thing lor I'm gonna like transform into


like like another part ah ah ah maybe another another like a wild character that kind of thing, maybe wear from shoes wear boots then <mandarin>就:jiu </mandarin> like <mandarin>以前驾以前以前驾车现在驾:yi qian jia yi qian yi qian jia che xian zai jia </mandarin> motorbike that kind of !wow! I mean like <mandarin>不是:bu shi </mandarin> it it is not like a long thing but I think it's a fun thing yeah yeah it's like err changes that is I won't consider is bad maybe it's just different


so I think <mandarin>我是:wo shi </mandarin> work, !aiya!, then follow up by shopping


but you will go to work in the transformation lah <mandarin>我的新鞋看一下我的:wo de xin xie kan yi xia wo de </mandarin> Gucci okay then <mandarin>你的第四个:ni de di si ge </mandarin> leh


okay there's left drinking, and eh meeting someone new


unhealthy lah <mandarin>看你喝什么:kan ni he shen me </mandarin> lah all the beer you chugging ah


no lah I don't think you will be drinking alone lah <mandarin>我的意思是讲你:wo de yi si shi jiang ni </mandarin> drinking <mandarin>没有:mei you </mandarin> like <mandarin>你可以找朋友:ni ke yi zhao peng you </mandarin> lah I think okay the good thing about guy and girl is that hor I don't know is it true but personally I think what I will do right is that if this kind of thing happen to me hor like if I were to drink <mandarin>我会我会叫我的:wo hui wo hui jiao wo de </mandarin> friend lor then then girls like to you know that guy hor then <mandarin>就:jiu </mandarin> start then you then you will call it's either <mandarin>讲那个男的坏话:jiang na ge nan de huai hua </mandarin> lah <mandarin>还是你会讲你多:hai shi ni hui jiang ni duo </mandarin> miss <mandarin>他:ta </mandarin> lah tell the reason of break up then after that that's why I think <mandarin>女孩子:nv hai zi </mandarin> in terms of <mandarin>这个比男孩子比较快:zhe ge bi nan hai zi bi jiao kuai </mandarin> heal


I don't know guy can do that but I don't, think most of them do, drinking


ah okay okay,


drinking, okay lah that that point I agree also for me my number three right err, shopping, actually no ah actually I think maybe shopping number


two cause, okay for <mandarin>为什么我选:wei shen me wo xuan </mandarin> working is number one is that hor break up <mandarin>也好不:ye hao bu </mandarin> break up <mandarin>也好我们都要吃饭的:ye hao wo men dou yao chi fan de </mandarin> life still have to go on lah it's not I can stop <mandarin>就:jiu </mandarin> stop work, so I I'll I'll I'll rather channel that that that energy into work


like you know like like like before I think about like


then <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> follow up <mandarin>我讲会去:wo jiang hui qu </mandarin> okay maybe instead <mandarin>我会去:wo hui qu </mandarin> shopping <mandarin>因为我:yin wei wo </mandarin> start shopping to transform, I I mean I enjoy the process lah between someone new <mandarin>跟:gen </mandarin> drinking ah


I think hor <mandarin>我会:wo hui </mandarin> value drinking more leh then meeting someone new cause I think like something I think not along the line of it but I think more of because instead of like drinking <mandarin>不要讲喝到:bu yao jiang he dao </mandarin> drunk lah but it's more of like err


like I can share with friend and like share this part of my life together with the person like doing life together of course you don't have to do through drinking but then I think <mandarin>通常你到这个:tong chang ni dao zhe ge </mandarin> age hor like, like ah ah <mandarin>你懂你到那种二十多岁你:ni dong ni dao na zhong er shi duo sui ni </mandarin> like like just drink lor like chill but <mandarin>不要喝到好像你:bu yao he dao hao xiang ni </mandarin> just <mandarin>在街上睡觉:zai jie shang shui jiao </mandarin> don't sleep at the club don't sleep at clarke quay <mandarin>那种:na zhong </mandarin> but it's just that you you drink then you just share life update here and be who knows maybe is like that through hor then someone will eh you know I have this friend hor then you can meet someone new what


because I think <mandarin>很多:hen duo </mandarin> catfish <mandarin>也是:ye shi </mandarin> then after that <mandarin>你看他照片:ni kan ta zhao pian </mandarin> hor is like <mandarin>那个那个人跟那个狗照片那个狗:na ge na ge ren gen na ge gou zhao pian na ge gou </mandarin> is like like seventy percent of the photo then you are thirty percent of the photo so am I dating the dog or am I dating you that kind of thing ah ah ah <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de </mandarin> like if you use pet is a cheating is a cheat code like cause you oh it's so cute it's so cute people will linger at your


page longer so I don't like that, but I think that if your friend recommend right whether it's good or bad right but I think at least your friend has a sort of filter at the end of day if like nothing happens at least you made another friend, Tinder is a hit or miss yes you do make friends but you do meet jerks


like like lovers <mandarin>你做:ni zuo </mandarin> friend ah ah or else or else you just meet like weird people ah weird people so I I I will rank drinking fourth then meeting someone new last


cause it's to me it's like not that, I mean if <mandarin>他来就:ta lai jiu </mandarin> oh thank god if <mandarin>他没有来也:ta mei you lai ye </mandarin> thank god


ya like like <mandarin>怎么样讲啊新的不去旧的不来旧的不去新的不来:zen me yang jiang a xin de bu qu jiu de bu lai jiu de bu qu xin de bu lai </mandarin> ah


ah and abit pathetic also


ah ah okay I agree, but people will say that are you trying to find someone to validate yourself what oh I think if I if I go through like like like if this process all these happens right I think hor I won't immediately commit to one I'm not say that I won't look for someone new but it's more of like


it meeting someone new is my fifth is because I think I will go through a process of self love, and <mandarin>你懂我很喜欢:ni dong wo hen xi huan </mandarin> like self care and self love <mandarin>这种:zhe zhong </mandarin> ya cause I I feel that err I don't want to look for I don't want to I don't want to meet someone to complete me cause I am already complete ha ha yeah but I want to meet someone to make me realise how complete I am and <mandarin>这种人:zhe zhong ren </mandarin> basically


like it's always someone trying to find someone to fill up an empty space, but I feel that nobody can replace the empty space


except for your ownself but you know human beings we always have a longing like something you always feel perhaps something a little bit missing not like it's like a <mandarin>不见得:bu jian de </mandarin> important <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> but you know when someone new come into your life right that person will occupy that space


and once that person go right that space will be left empty in a sense no no my my answer is that right that space whether is filled or not filled right it like it shouldn't be replaced it shouldn't be a replacing method


yeah yeah that that that space whether it's filled or not filled is empty or what right, err <mandarin>新的人进来:xin de ren jin lai </mandarin> hor the person should be given to a new space


giving example <mandarin>我跟你:wo gen ni </mandarin> rent <mandarin>一个:yi ge </mandarin> part of your house right <mandarin>这个:zhe ge </mandarin> room <mandarin>是我的:shi wo de </mandarin> ya <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> pay full for <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> put <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> full rent <mandarin>什么都还了突然间你叫一个人多一个你再请多:shen me dou huan le tu ran jian ni jiao yi ge ren duo yi ge ni zai qing duo </mandarin> like you get another tenant then <mandarin>你去跟我:ni qu gen wo </mandarin> share <mandarin>一个:yi ge </mandarin> room but I have paid for the room already it's not the room the room is not empty so I don't like lah maybe <mandarin>我很:wo hen </mandarin> I love personal space <mandarin>我喜欢我自己的:wo xi huan wo zi ji de </mandarin> personal space so


ah


[orh] how come


okay that's why I tell you you are not book you are more like a diary cause you actually read a book right chapters have to be connected so the story can flow err ok maybe err you are the you are the main you are the main lead of all chapters lah but I'm saying that right chapters have to be connected therefore the book can link so in that sense if that's what if we're talking about real book hor


(uh huh)


but <mandarin>我刚才讲:wo gang cai jiang </mandarin> what for this story to work hor <mandarin>你的:ni de </mandarin> chapter one <mandarin>跟:gen </mandarin> two


[orh]


they don't wait for you I think you take more than three years <mandarin>人家会叫你:ren jia hui jiao ni </mandarin> eh wake up, so, you will find a new guy then drinking will be the last


speaking of finding someone you right err, err blind date or things like that lah


<mandarin>那种:na zhong </mandarin> agency Singapore have what do you know Gaigai is a marriage is like a marriage agency you go there then of course <mandarin>你做他们的:ni zuo ta men de </mandarin> application <mandarin>做:zuo </mandarin> member <mandarin>什么东西:shen me dong xi </mandarin> lah is really they recommend


Gaigai is a, marriage agency branded into a, a image right that they just want to like hang out but <mandarin>不是他:bu shi ta </mandarin> actually <mandarin>是他:shi ta </mandarin> like a marriage agency leh


then <mandarin>你就:ni jiu </mandarin> then <mandarin>你就:ni jiu </mandarin> arrange <mandarin>一个:yi ge </mandarin> date <mandarin>这样:zhe yang </mandarin> lor, dating


so that means <mandarin>你的意思就是说:ni de yi si jiu shi shuo </mandarin> [orh] err, , like you will be meeting the person for the first time it's going to be awkward <mandarin>这两个人在:zhe liang ge ren zai </mandarin> Starbucks then <mandarin>不懂要讲什么这样子:bu dong yao jiang shen me zhe yang zi </mandarin> then like you like that like how to say I mean it'll be awkward because you all know the intention


like you won't, agree or accept the traditional way of like meeting someone new like for example blind date <mandarin>是相亲是一个:shi xiang qin shi yi ge </mandarin> traditional way of how people, use to meet people


meeting weird people how you all recognise each other let's turn to page twenty three of this harry potter book when you saw me wave the salt ah


comical lah, then err how about meeting people online


why, catfish ah


inappropriate <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> content ah


no but then is it like you don't like if a guy is like being too direct <mandarin>可能是可是刚才你用那个:ke neng shi ke shi gang cai ni yong na ge </mandarin> example mah <mandarin>讲话讲到一半:jiang hua jiang dao yi ban </mandarin> then <mandarin>他突然间问你要不要去:ta tu ran jian wen ni yao bu yao qu </mandarin> like <mandarin>去:qu </mandarin> have dinner <mandarin>这样因为:zhe yang yin wei </mandarin> to <mandarin>你你就会很:ni ni jiu hui hen </mandarin> like put off <mandarin>因为他:yin wei ta </mandarin> like like too direct or what


then <mandarin>他怎么样问你:ta zen me yang wen ni </mandarin> are you hungry


, so you are


[orh] but <mandarin>你不很像怕你会:ni bu hen xiang pa ni hui </mandarin> encounter things like catfishing meh


oh ya lah cause of COVID and many other things


ah okay the thing about catfishing is that hor can you imagine you invest like, a two three months' worth of like time of course conversation lah <mandarin>不要讲什么你被给钱那样子叫:bu yao jiang shen me ni bei gei qian na yang zi jiao </mandarin> scam then after that <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> realise [orh]


he is, !wah! it's like


很, what do you think of people that try to catfish people


googled, at least <mandarin>他没有用:ta mei you yong </mandarin> zac efron <mandarin>这种:zhe zhong </mandarin> right like <mandarin>那种:na zhong </mandarin> korean park bo gum like what


change name change age lah


so you think is a is a esteem issue lah confidence level like [orh] like love scam <mandarin>这样:zhe yang </mandarin> lah


okay okay, so <mandarin>你是你是:ni shi ni shi </mandarin> like how to say like you think people catfish are really partly due to their, like, poor body image <mandarin>也好:ye hao </mandarin> face image <mandarin>也好:ye hao </mandarin> or being super pressured by


the so called standard of beauty these days <mandarin>这样:zhe yang </mandarin> lah, what if hor, like you met someone, err <mandarin>你会喜欢那个人吗讲真的很像那个那个:ni hui xi huan na ge ren ma jiang zhen de hen xiang na ge na ge </mandarin> a season of netflix movie <mandarin>这样那个那个:zhe yang na ge na ge </mandarin> what's the thing ah the noah something is inside one something something is a loser


have you watched it before, so it's a movie right


err <mandarin>一个:yi ge </mandarin> fake number but <mandarin>那个:na ge </mandarin> fake number belongs to one of the person she bully, ah you know then they converse then actually he realized he liked her one but then he keep thinking is that hottest girl, then because <mandarin>那个那个那个被:na ge na ge na ge bei </mandarin> bully <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> she need to keep up <mandarin>这个:zhe ge </mandarin> image <mandarin>她就叫那个:ta jiu jiao na ge </mandarin> hottest girl to assist her something along the line if this were to happen to you


will you react like the noah guy in the end I forgot his name noah what, [orh]


, so if <mandarin>很像那个:hen xiang na ge </mandarin> movie come to life in your life right you will choose the decision no no what I mean you were the noah now <mandarin>不是那个女的:bu shi na ge nv de </mandarin> so you will choose what noah did cause in the end <mandarin>那个:na ge </mandarin> noah <mandarin>跟那个女的走:gen na ge nv de zou </mandarin> what


but she didn't actually honestly right cannot blame her cause the very beginning she didn't knew it was a catfish, it's only a bit later right in the conversation then she realise it's a catfish and therefore she then then then her problem already lah she don't want to stop the stop the end up she just keep on catfishing until err


okay I think because cultural difference he brought her to prom and perhaps like I don't know lah maybe like Singapore is different but in in their country prom is a big thing


okay we don't take prom lah I am saying that if this like legit happens to you, which I hope you don't but yeah if happens to you


like a catfish <mandarin>的你:de ni </mandarin> don't mind giving it a try


, then low self esteem lah


but she legit oh my god you catfish even <mandarin>她那个:ta na ge </mandarin> band <mandarin>的那个那个:de na ge na ge </mandarin> the the best friend she got the black guy also say like !hey! you're catfishing ya


have you, okay not say you will go and try but have you ever considered, [orh] <mandarin>做么:zuo me </mandarin> leh, but <mandarin>你不会觉得:ni bu hui jue de </mandarin> like like I don't know some people find it fun for example


, but then usually catfish people catfish stranger mah


how to say ah, I really like, like those analog like relationships, and all the more romance


not really lah like if we are talking about the serious real like the real deal kind <mandarin>所以:suo yi </mandarin> I think <mandarin>我不会去:wo bu hui qu </mandarin> online <mandarin>因为:yin wei </mandarin> err online hor <mandarin>对:dui </mandarin> you can meet people through


but I think you miss out a very, like human fundamental like err touch there, but then <mandarin>你这样讲:ni zhe yang jiang </mandarin> then <mandarin>人家:ren jia </mandarin> can <mandarin>讲:jiang </mandarin> eh you can meet face to face what <mandarin>你敢:ni gan </mandarin> meh, ya lah <mandarin>没有我是觉得这样的话:mei you wo shi jue de zhe yang de hua </mandarin> hor <mandarin>就就很:jiu jiu hen </mandarin> like how to say like like


say I like like old fashioned <mandarin>也好我觉得是:ye hao wo jue de shi </mandarin> meeting people online hor meet <mandarin>是可以:shi ke yi </mandarin> meet but <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de </mandarin> like, you must impose yourself a sense of danger also, what if <mandarin>那个人:na ge ren </mandarin> like like, is not what you think it is or like not good intention for example


be like couple hor <mandarin>可以做:ke yi zuo </mandarin> friend <mandarin>做不了:zuo bu liao </mandarin> friend <mandarin>做:zuo </mandarin> acquaintance uh so <mandarin>我还觉得:wo hai jue de </mandarin> is that it's ok to have many acquaintance, just meet around lor, at least <mandarin>如果:ru guo </mandarin> friend <mandarin>的话:de hua </mandarin> hor , of course <mandarin>不是:bu shi </mandarin> any tom dick and harry <mandarin>可以进来:ke yi jin lai </mandarin> lah but I think that if you are willing to accept <mandarin>那个:na ge </mandarin> friend that recommendation hor


like those


but of course <mandarin>我不会:wo bu hui </mandarin> fault lah I mean <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de </mandarin> online find <mandarin>现在很:xian zai hen </mandarin> common <mandarin>每个人都是:mei ge ren dou shi </mandarin> online find <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> and I won't say online you can't find true love but maybe because <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> pursue <mandarin>比较:bi jiao </mandarin> analog <mandarin>的我比较喜欢:de wo bi jiao xi huan </mandarin> analog style so, adjusting


I prefer old songs actually I <mandarin>蛮喜欢我很喜:man xi huan wo hen xi </mandarin> I like those days that I used to receive letters yeah like primary school secondary school, so you see <mandarin>我觉得:wo jue de </mandarin> once I reach tertiary right <mandarin>很少不不是没有:hen shao bu bu shi mei you </mandarin> but <mandarin>就真的很少因为:jiu zhen de hen shao yin wei </mandarin> I don't know maybe primary school <mandarin>跟:gen </mandarin> secondary school things were much simpler and and <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> even <mandarin>很像那个:hen xiang na ge </mandarin> note hor half the time <mandarin>那个那个那个:na ge na ge na ge </mandarin> content <mandarin>一点点:yi dian dian </mandarin> but <mandarin>像画画:xiang hua hua </mandarin> or what but I think it's a very fun memory and and now <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> look back it's very precious why I even draw this elephant here <mandarin>那种东西:na zhong dong xi </mandarin> you don't know one mah <mandarin>我就觉得:wo jiu jue de </mandarin> is like and I love receiving like this kind of letters like those


handmade stuff that now is very flaky cause <mandarin>太久了:tai jiu le </mandarin> correct then I think, I say that maybe in relationship wise <mandarin>我想要这种:wo xiang yao zhe zhong </mandarin> like connection which I think <mandarin>我会很:wo hui hen </mandarin> clingy <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> girlfriend <mandarin>我一直写:wo yi zhi xie </mandarin> then <mandarin>我一直做那种:wo yi zhi zuo na zhong </mandarin> stuff I don't know I don't know depends on the person also <mandarin>有有有:you you you </mandarin> post office <mandarin>很靠近而已:hen kao jin er yi </mandarin> but I'm saying that this kind of analog things lor like very very small small stuff that I would like lah


so err, it's very easy lor, like analog stuff that I in to be a relationship,


I agree


close to lah, eh <mandarin>如果那个人不:ru guo na ge ren bu </mandarin> close hor


like interaction maybe <mandarin>我们:wo men </mandarin> like throughout <mandarin>我们的:wo men de </mandarin> growing up days or what if I talking about long term like friend I use to know for very long maybe <mandarin>在:zai </mandarin> class <mandarin>的时候没有一起:de shi hou mei you yi qi </mandarin> work together <mandarin>那种我还可以:na zhong wo hai ke yi </mandarin> think about it can consider but of course


I think it's very common for everybody lah <mandarin>突然之间你没有你:tu ran zhi jian ni mei you ni</mandarin> lost contact <mandarin>的人:de ren</mandarin> reappear in <mandarin>你:ni</mandarin> life hor, uh whether <mandarin>是朋友也好:shi peng you ye hao </mandarin> family <mandarin>也好:ye hao </mandarin> any anything lah, if work colleague <mandarin>也好:ye hao </mandarin> suddenly <mandarin>他:ta </mandarin> reappear in <mandarin>你的:ni de </mandarin> life hor


their close , limited option lah ok for example <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> social circle <mandarin>有五个人就好:you wu ge ren jiu hao </mandarin> then hor <mandarin>每五个人:mei wu ge ren </mandarin> hor recommend someone from their inner circle <mandarin>我没有五个人:wo mei you wu ge ren </mandarin> Liao leh I think <mandarin>那个很多:na ge hen duo </mandarin> lah if you ask me <mandarin>以后我真的会很多:yi hou wo zhen de hui hen duo </mandarin> leh


eh <mandarin>你真的你看你:ni zhen de ni kan ni </mandarin> social circle <mandarin>不用很大:bu yong hen da </mandarin> but <mandarin>你要:ni yao </mandarin> it's about connection <mandarin>你的你的:ni de ni de </mandarin> connect <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> I can have a friend from engineer for example <mandarin>有一个:you yi ge </mandarin> friend from like business then <mandarin>如果我今天讲:ru guo wo jin tian jiang </mandarin> oh <mandarin>我我要:wo wo yao </mandarin> try like <mandarin>我要:wo yao </mandarin> meet someone from engineer <mandarin>不要讲:bu yao jiang </mandarin> relationship just try <mandarin>我要去找那个:wo yao qu zhao na ge </mandarin> engineer friend <mandarin>他:ta </mandarin> everybody confirm got a niche circle you are included I think everybody like like everybody is included in


different niche like example <mandarin>你是我这个:ni shi wo zhe ge </mandarin> niche but <mandarin>我有另外的:wo you ling wai de </mandarin> niche, but I think <mandarin>一个人不可能只有一个:yi ge ren bu ke neng zhi you yi ge </mandarin> niche <mandarin>而已只是看哪一个:er yi zhi shi kan na yi ge </mandarin> niche <mandarin>比较:bi jiao </mandarin> closer than others but <mandarin>一定会:yi ding hui </mandarin> at least <mandarin>一个人有一两个:yi ge ren you yi liang ge </mandarin> niche for example, then <mandarin>如果你我这个:ru guo ni wo zhe ge </mandarin> niche <mandarin>你很:ni hen </mandarin> close right cause maybe like <mandarin>我们这个:wo men zhe ge </mandarin> common circle <mandarin>你懂我可以:ni dong wo ke yi </mandarin> recommend <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> from <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> someone from the other niche <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> what


then <mandarin>你看如果一人有三个:ni kan ru guo yi ren you san ge </mandarin> niche <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> recommend <mandarin>两个人:liang ge ren </mandarin> from different niche <mandarin>你就:ni jiu </mandarin> meet from <mandarin>你那个:ni na ge </mandarin> particular friend <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> meet <mandarin>两个人:liang ge ren </mandarin> Liao, then <mandarin>你五个这种:ni wu ge zhe zhong </mandarin> friend <mandarin>你已经十个人:ni yi jing shi ge ren </mandarin> Liao hello <mandarin>十个人不够:shi ge ren bu gou </mandarin> meh <mandarin>你去:ni qu </mandarin> it's not like <mandarin>叫你去巴刹买菜这样:jiao ni qu ba sha mai cai zhe yang </mandarin> what ah factorizations we we talk it logically lah


like you can have but you can but you can go for another niche that I don't know is it developing under develop or what what that one I don't ask lah <mandarin>你可以有这种的:ni ke yi you zhe zhong de </mandarin> mah


okay for me I think if <mandarin>如果我要:ru guo wo yao </mandarin> recommend a <mandarin>人:ren </mandarin> to <mandarin>我的:wo de </mandarin> friend hor the hard thing is because I know you and I know him


maybe lah I will <mandarin>因为:yin wei </mandarin> I know who you are and I know who he is cause different niche mah <mandarin>我们一样:wo men yi yang </mandarin> close mah then for that like


to find circles of the


if was <mandarin>那我是那个要:na wo shi na ge yao </mandarin> recommend like recommend <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> to <mandarin>另外一个人:ling wai yi ge ren </mandarin> hor <mandarin>我找一个突然间一个:wo zhao yi ge tu ran jian yi ge </mandarin> random party lah <mandarin>什么:shen me </mandarin> just kind of occasion where I have to bring people in <mandarin>对没有:dui mei you </mandarin> lah <mandarin>不是现在:bu shi xian zai </mandarin> lah I'm saying this kind of situation then where hor like err I have to get you and the person to be involved in some sort of thing

people say seeing is believing but no lah I think nowadays with so many photos right everything not all ya ya just can say is all marketing lah it's not seeing is believing anymore so it so to me I'll trust friends err more but of course <mandarin>你自己要一个:ni zi ji yao yi ge </mandarin> certain judgment lah <mandarin>因为你:yin wei ni </mandarin> friend maybe thought is the best for you but only <mandarin>你自己懂对:ni zi ji dong dui </mandarin> only you truly know what is the best for you so <mandarin>我不会:wo bu hui </mandarin> err

oh but I don't believe in the cinderella prince charming concept, but <mandarin>我真的不相信这种:wo zhen de bu xiang xin zhe zhong </mandarin> concept for <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> for <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> hor, if <mandarin>我要:wo yao </mandarin> compare like myself to a superhero character <mandarin>还是这种:hai shi zhe zhong </mandarin> like cartoon character right no ya I I want to something like that I I can be the wonder woman be black widow you can be the superman or batman


cinderella <mandarin>要做的东西:yao zuo de dong xi </mandarin> to just to meet <mandarin>那个男的:na ge nan de </mandarin> end up <mandarin>那个男的找一双鞋子就就就就:na ge nan de zhao yi shuang xie zi jiu jiu jiu jiu </mandarin> game over


yeah I don't like it at least like for example black widow <mandarin>也好:ye hao </mandarin> wonder woman <mandarin>也好:ye hao </mandarin> whatever characters like in like this kind of fighting scene lor, they got their own role one and they got what they are good at then the superman batman or whatever even iron man <mandarin>这种:zhe zhong </mandarin> is just like


partner in crime <mandarin>的感觉不是:de gan jue bu shi </mandarin> like


so you're trying to say is prince <mandarin>害了她:hai le ta </mandarin> ah


I think maybe <mandarin>她会开:ta hui kai </mandarin> maid agency


be the best servant, to your master how to make birds help help you tie hair eh <mandarin>你想想如果:ni xiang xiang ru guo </mandarin> snow white hor


and <mandarin>没有人讲那个那个:mei you ren jiang na ge na ge </mandarin> apple <mandarin>会:hui </mandarin> last <mandarin>她:ta </mandarin> forever maybe power nap she's just tired and she need power nap as in I don't remember lah but <mandarin>那个故事没有讲:na ge gu shi mei you jiang </mandarin> it's a we all know it's a poison apple but it they didn't say the apple will make her sleep eternity like eternally it just say will make her sleep


she's sleeping what [orh] [orh] snow white [orh] snow white <mandarin>是死掉:shi si diao </mandarin> meh ok <mandarin>他们说:ta men shuo </mandarin> funeral look like funeral then ok <mandarin>可能:ke neng </mandarin> different story


oh <mandarin>我懂我懂我懂:wo dong wo dong wo dong </mandarin> but sleeping beauty <mandarin>也是另外一个我听到有:ye shi ling wai yi ge wo ting dao you </mandarin> dark side <mandarin>的她讲她起来不是因为那个男的:de ta jiang ta qi lai bu shi yin wei na ge nan de </mandarin> kiss <mandarin>她是她被她被:ta shi ta bei ta bei </mandarin> raped I was like !ouch! like I think same same for sleeping beauty I don't think <mandarin>她是:ta shi </mandarin> sleep for eternity right


uh


speciality but ok eh maybe <mandarin>可以开:ke yi kai </mandarin> sleeping <mandarin>她可以开:ta ke yi kai </mandarin> sleeping <mandarin>那种:na zhong </mandarin> bed business


strong lah don't manly strong like moana, ya elsa isn't that from black king elsa there's one from tangled one

brainless, or per se useless weak ya weak is the word like like unhappy yes not like I'm not asking them to cinderella to to leave her home all these thing lah but I think she can make her own stand if she wants to


and <mandarin>你想想:ni xiang xiang </mandarin> hor <mandarin>那个人是他爸爸:na ge ren shi ta ba ba </mandarin> leh, it's not like <mandarin>她的:ta de </mandarin> it's not like it's her stepfather is a real father leh yeah of course we say lah father sick or <mandarin>什么东西:shen me dong xi </mandarin> but technically she also has the inheritance one mah in the sense <mandarin>她只是要:ta zhi shi yao </mandarin> make <mandarin>那个:na ge </mandarin> inheritance work lor


who knows you can be the biggest like shareholders, err she can start her maid agency or or ya she can become a animal whisperer


ya [lor], even even <mandarin>什么啊那个谁也是那个:shen me a na ge shei ye shi na ge </mandarin> sleeping beauty <mandarin>可以做:ke yi zuo </mandarin> fairy whisperer [eh] <mandarin>三只:san zhi </mandarin> [leh]


oh, how would I rank them ah


I think, I think <mandarin>我会:wo hui </mandarin> rank, , rank shopping <mandarin>先:xian </mandarin> [bah] shopping ah shopping cause shopping this kind of thing is very like after the breakup then like immediately <mandarin>你会去想去做的:ni hui qu xiang qu zuo de </mandarin> is like got the urge to impulsive


spend like let loose of your energy then, shopping is so enticing


like <mandarin>会:hui </mandarin> buy snacks that kind of thing ah not just clothes and but snacks also like then, after you buy the clothes then you feel confident about yourself then like !wah! eh the person ah why you dump me oh eh I say until I dump I kena dump oh no


err so like, err did, we break up then like is, wear dress well then, they will, the guy will feel bad in that sense like I feel good about myself so that


they, make them regret kind of thing lor , my number two ah err my number two


eh hello I'm single again, in a sense <mandarin>会有一点改变:hui you yi dian gai bian </mandarin> lor


!huh! <mandarin>你会:ni hui </mandarin> work ah <mandarin>对:dui </mandarin> lor


but then <mandarin>你看:ni kan </mandarin> ah <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> money <mandarin>你你自己有你的:ni ni zi ji you ni de </mandarin> bank account <mandarin>看到:kan dao </mandarin> right but then he cannot see unless it's a shared account oh


a wild kid !wow!,


, [orh], I


it's like the the emotion is still there like I can't really go back to work


immediately in a sense so my immediate one will be my first two rank lah of course then err subsequently I will go back to work


then the work it will be the long time the long term therapy in a sense, so when you work then you you will be focused on what you are working on mah then you will forget about that that dude you know ya


!hey! yeah


my <mandarin>第四个:di si ge </mandarin> will be, meeting someone new <mandarin>没有:mei you </mandarin> lah ah makeover <mandarin>之后你你在:zhi hou ni ni zai </mandarin> office <mandarin>里面你的:li mian ni de </mandarin> transformation <mandarin>对不对:dui bu dui </mandarin> <mandarin>没有啦就是说:mei you la jiu shi shuo </mandarin> err after


the working the working phase would be quite long lah like whereby you know takes around at least like five to six months you know on on healing and like forgetting things after the break up you know


eh <mandarin>我的:wo de </mandarin> rank <mandarin>是:shi </mandarin> in in terms of like process lah that's why <mandarin>我会觉得是:wo hui jue de shi </mandarin> number four err as finding a new partner in a sense but then


to let go of that negative, err feelings in in <mandarin>我们的:wo men de </mandarin> break up right is not


a very, good way I would say <mandarin>会很伤伤身体:hui hen shang shang shen ti </mandarin> leh then eh <mandarin>你喝你喝酒:ni he ni he jiu </mandarin> right <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> drinking right <mandarin>会很肥的:hui hen fei de </mandarin> leh <mandarin>你知道吗:ni zhi dao ma </mandarin> ah then <mandarin>你喝的时候:ni he de shi hou </mandarin> then


<mandarin>你有:ni you </mandarin> friend <mandarin>的时候就:de shi hou jiu </mandarin> ok lah like eh then <mandarin>你可以在他前面哭:ni ke yi zai ta qian mian ku </mandarin> but then


is a drinking is a necessary thing lah as in <mandarin>你跟朋友:ni gen peng you </mandarin> like say about like, the those bad things that happen and everything


but then, like


but then, it is make it as in <mandarin>重要:zhong yao </mandarin> is <mandarin>重要:zhong yao </mandarin> but then <mandarin>你:ni </mandarin> make it sound like err like drinking then you make it sound like it's a very


I'm still a logical person


[bah] is not, not like, oh, it's gone, that's why rank number five lah ya


the not necessary kind of


life have to go on


, ya


you don't need the new one that one is enough


as in <mandarin>那个脸是:na ge lian shi </mandarin> half <mandarin>的脸:de lian </mandarin>


(hmm), that's true


eh like it's a hit or miss lah ya there I think he friend recommend or you had most likely you talking to a friend or at least the acquaintance, like deal or no deal <mandarin>那种:na zhong </mandarin> right


[orh], but then <mandarin>我是觉得说:wo shi jue de shuo </mandarin> meeting someone it will, help help you to open, open you to


like more, like


start a new


finding someone new is is a way you know, someone that match


not say validate lah I would say, err someone that deserve me more I'm confident like that


as in <mandarin>我觉得不是:wo jue de bu shi </mandarin> so empty space per se lah like


so don't let anyone get into the space


agree, [orh] another parking lot lah


err, really <mandarin>不是说春天来:bu shi shuo chun tian lai </mandarin> lah like err really a fresh start lah, like


I'm I'm I'm a book, I would I would say I'm like I myself is a book so if I write finish this chapter I I should start a new chapter I, shouldn't be like continuing the chapter like forever right is always in chapter one then like, you know like people don't know what you are doing what


my life is connected as in it's a book about my life myself ya


chapter two is


someone new, yeah, so I mean, it's not, a, I'm a book, okay and this book right


has to have a start and a end which is the start and the end of my life, okay and there will be chapters, okay and if the chapter is too long I'm stuck there for too long then, it won't be a complete book what


I mean <mandarin>是:shi </mandarin> linked <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> what my link will be my shopping <mandarin>那个:na ge </mandarin> shopping <mandarin>那个:na ge </mandarin> transformation then <mandarin>还有:hai you </mandarin> uh ah ah


like, like like for example I'll take like what ten years to heal


next step please, yeah


oh <mandarin>我:wo </mandarin> as in <mandarin>我要看是谁:wo yao kan shi shei </mandarin> introduce <mandarin>给我的:gei wo de </mandarin> lor like <mandarin>如果是:ru guo shi </mandarin> friend then it will be


wagyu


not say, that, !huh! <mandarin>你你看:ni ni kan </mandarin> then


I I mean <mandarin>就是好像:jiu shi hao xiang </mandarin> for example online <mandarin>如果是:ru guo shi </mandarin> online <mandarin>的话至少你会有:de hua zhi shao ni hui you </mandarin> err a mild conversation with the person, for awhile, then <mandarin>你会:ni hui </mandarin> get to know a bit more personally on a personal level but then


a stranger telling you about a stranger, which I think <mandarin>是没有什么:shi mei you shen me </mandarin> connection <mandarin>的感觉:de gan jue </mandarin> lor


and also not just dating <mandarin>这种:zhe zhong </mandarin> agency <mandarin>通常都是讲:tong chang dou shi jiang </mandarin> getting married, it will be putting the the marriage sign like right at your forehead blinking at each other


so is very, pressurizing in a sense ya it's very forceful like <mandarin>我要跟你生孩子:wo yao gen ni sheng hai zi </mandarin> ya


don't really end well don't really go through, a a a good process in a sense <mandarin>就是:jiu shi </mandarin> ah <mandarin>对你你拿个:dui ni ni na ge </mandarin> rose <mandarin>过来:guo lai </mandarin> then <mandarin>你用那个:ni yong na ge </mandarin> violet <mandarin>出来:chu lai </mandarin> then like uh


ya and


online I would say, I don't mind but, as in heard of stories lor <mandarin>你你看到你朋友:ni ni kan dao ni peng you </mandarin> eh <mandarin>在在:zai zai </mandarin> online social site then <mandarin>他们的:ta men de </mandarin> story <mandarin>很:hen </mandarin> entertaining <mandarin>真的很:zhen de hen </mandarin> entertaining but then


err too direct is one thing


if we are on the same, topic


ya lah I I don't mind just don't put off as too weird and too creepy and thirsty


meet someone offline I would say


then you ya ya so you, ultimately, you have to get use and adapt to the situation lah, then <mandarin>你就:ni jiu </mandarin> open, open your heart


then it can become my story already part of the book


are you not confident


, <mandarin>那种就有一点有一点:na zhong jiu you yi dian you yi dian </mandarin> so obvious,


err you would never know that you might meet someone, that is really, don't mind what you are you know as a person, err like your face ya esteem issue lah ya unless <mandarin>他是:ta shi </mandarin> like scam money <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> lah then <mandarin>我就我就没有没有东西讲:wo jiu wo jiu mei you mei you dong xi jiang </mandarin> ah


ya


yeah, as in


[orh] <mandarin>我有看到那个了看那个:wo you kan dao na ge le kan na ge </mandarin> movie ah


this, I would say that, I don't like it lah, but then noah something something, but I I know ah he's quite handsome lah but then


at first <mandarin>我会:wo hui </mandarin> shock of course, like why you, lie to me and stuff like that, but


I will choose noah ya


the girl was actually, sincere about the the things that she talk about and like is really of the same interests and stuff like that


ya lah ya lah, her feelings can't stop until the moment it was revealed lah but


ya lor I mean you need to see the thing holistically lah you cannot <mandarin>说:shuo </mandarin> like, err, what is the intention


uh what what is the intention like and everything before you come to a decision lor, and also I want to see my own feelings lah like, first <mandarin>你是:ni shi </mandarin> catfish second <mandarin>我跟你没有感觉:wo gen ni mei you gan jue </mandarin> then what's the point me like oh whether I should I should decide a not no what if ah true lah ya


if I like <mandarin>的话:de hua </mandarin> then, I would, try to accept like, like you know in the movie they they got together but then, got together doesn't mean, official, per se like maybe I'll go for like a date a few dates no to see what the person really is like face to face some is


I would go for date, like, it's not boyfriend girlfriend but it's more of like date like


I would try to give it like one month per se to to see how the person is like first lor, testing stage, catfish , as in


if it is a reason that there's a reason why the person is doing it like <mandarin>如果:ru guo </mandarin> like the girl like that she got bullied and stuff like that, that's why ya that's why she got low self esteem then what


what I'm doing, to the person is making the self esteem worst what, if I I just like oh my god you catfish bye bye, ya lah but lah ya


make my stand more neutral lor, uh maybe after I experience <mandarin>我会:wo hui </mandarin> !wah! that that catfish ah !wah!


I don't like the, like the, the intention behind cat fishing for fun that kind is really just, too, like puts me off lah like


what am I am I like a toy or what, ah <mandarin>我我不愿:wo wo bu yuan </mandarin> lor <mandarin>我不重要:wo bu zhong yao </mandarin> meh !huh! <mandarin>我有:wo you </mandarin> feeling <mandarin>的:de </mandarin> leh <mandarin>我是人来的:wo shi ren lai de </mandarin> leh hello ah


ya lah as in, I I won't do it because I myself I, don't, don't like like people playing my feelings about like whatever lah so if you don't like people play you don't play with others lah


(mmhmm)


as


meaningful lah small notes


, but <mandarin>你不觉得现在很难说有:ni bu jue de xian zai hen nan shuo you </mandarin> analog way


of like meeting people, as in friend's recommendation <mandarin>有:you </mandarin> lah but then, err depends on like social circle also lah yeah so if like what if like there's a friend that you are


like not very, [orh] err good with you know, ya not very close and, recommend <mandarin>你会觉得你会:ni hui jue de ni hui </mandarin> accept mah


interaction


kind of more or less fixed, already at a certain age like it's very hard to meet new people, so that's why, there's only left with like the friends that is like


of course your close friends also have like the fixed social circle already so


like and and you also have to know that some some people like for example like me my social circle is like mostly girls so I very hard for me to introduce you someone you know like your this niche already the circle already drop Liao


to find circles to first your friend to recommend first your friend must be confident


!wah! <mandarin>现在:xian zai </mandarin> party <mandarin>很难:hen nan </mandarin> Wo


, true lah true

weak


she can just leave the house and get her own job, , ya lah


ya, ya then she can start her maid company, ya lor


actually snow white also can be animal whisperer what, she can be singer also, join choir man


, what's the question you want to ask,


I think I will go to JB first, like, because, is the nearest and then, Malaysia has good food [right] so


that one also but that one


like we plan in like february [right] so I think, it's still KIV but if it's the nearest one then <mandarin>我会选去马来西亚因为:wo hui xuan qu ma lai xi ya yin wei</mandarin> it's the easiest and then you just drive can already


but then, that time you say you want to eat chilli crab [right] <mandarin>辣椒螃蟹:la jiao pang xie</mandarin> so isn't it the cheapest and the nearest option is in Malaysia (uh huh)


I mean if they are nice enough lah then they let us go to, their country first


, then I don't think I don't want to go anywhere yet leh like I have no initial plans lah cause now need to, cause now I need to save money [right] need to buy house and all so I cannot, do a lot of things


that time we do the application then, like inside <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> system <mandarin>他没有讲什么:ta mei you jiang shen me</mandarin> leh <mandarin>他只是讲说:ta zhi shi jiang shuo</mandarin> [orh] approve <mandarin>而已:er yi</mandarin> then we just wait lor because they never say when


then ya then after that jeremy <mandarin>去:qu</mandarin> calculate so, like I think around, three hundred plus units is for like four room flat like that one


but then <mandarin>你要先:ni yao xian</mandarin> like get <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> chance to choose the unit <mandarin>才可以:cai ke yi</mandarin> get <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> flat leh, because <mandarin>我们现在:wo men xian zai</mandarin> apply <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> application hor is like, you only apply for a general thing before you get to choose the specific block and the unit


[orh] I know is it, like Dakota, because because over there I think it's very popular because like


got old airport road there then got the MRT then got schools also that's why, well then that place, I think that's why lah because, when they came out [right] I think everybody also Chiong there besides the #pasir ris# Tampines one


but they never consider like buying condo all this ah, cheap cheaper lah for them


because <mandarin>如果他们一买:ru guo ta men yi mai</mandarin> resale <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> private property then


!aiya! but then like they don't want to start family all these meh


(hmm), !wah! like that


compared to <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> normal <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> BTO lah


because that time like jeremy and I like the floor plans we saw, I think there were only two kinds ah one is the the


like you know storage place like that so you can put your dry goods inside


but then see lah because like we saw the BTO the


yeah yeah that's true eh but then says like when I was looking at the center for band or the the ones that she was looking at there was one location that it's really very nice is the you know like from leaving you want to go into the bedrooms the entire corridor then one of the site instead of at the site where usually is like the common toilet


room like that area is the bomb shelter I think that's the best, false wall <mandarin>在那边:zai na bian</mandarin> to <mandarin>遮掉:zhe diao</mandarin> like they install additional cardboard or whatever just to hide it some people like they don't like


okay lah like, oh ya cause five room flat they got obviously more space so, !haiya! so you just pray lah pray see which one you get


I think resale more worth lah, but then I think one thing that people always consider is the, like how many years left, in the house that kind of thing because normally


is already left like cause the thing like ninety nine years [right] so if you buy from another person maybe only left like,


I don't think so, no that time I think the parents want to continue staying in the maisonette because now [right]


I don't think Singapore they continue building any maisonette anywhere because that time I was talking to jeremy about how why are they


I don't know whether they gonna sell it or not but so far I don't think so, yes


but then <mandarin>他们这样子他们是买:ta men zhe yang zi ta men shi mai</mandarin> four room <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> five room <mandarin>可是现在因为现在有那个:ke shi xian zai yin wei xian zai you na ge</mandarin> third gen <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> house <mandarin>可是:ke shi</mandarin> like I don't know if they are applicable for it that kind


!wah! but then so how like that she, she got no say ah


but then, I don't know eh it's like if you say now maybe there will be friction but then now they staying in HDB ah, then they can compromise and move to BTO meh


, <mandarin>看:kan</mandarin> lor <mandarin>因为以前:yin wei yi qian</mandarin> like when I was younger, only got there was only four of us but then my siblings and I we were still quite young like


I think my, like, my brother and sister they are primary school then I'm kindergarten then my younger brother is like nursery or what, then when we had, a helper I think we change a few times, ya but I cannot remember why but I remember like


, I think the first few times, like, I cannot remember leh like that time, I know last time we always like


but, but that one you all got tell her already anot


that means that time <mandarin>他煮那个那个:ta zhu na ge na ge</mandarin> tomato and egg that one that dish, then, inside got detergent on the plate


then what did your dad do


!wah! but so interesting though like, who, have, a helper like that


then that time you say you you throw away the bed already [right] but why got one bed over here ah


then <mandarin>你有:ni you</mandarin> check <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> like wheelchair


!wah!, but then like that, !wah!, don't know whether still have anot actually, but that time but that time we never really occur to us that all the smell will attract the bed bug [right]


the feature wall lah


then what's the top part like, so it's like a half wall lah, yeah, then all these luggages so you're going to have like a platform then the platform can store things


so you all got go and see already ah


so okay so the platform will be like this, the permanent semi permanent wooden thing then after that you just stack your bed on top that's all ah


I'm trying to picture a bit confusing ah


pests okay, ya, lol just now my sister say like potato was scratching and licking his paws because even though he has a cone [right] like he need to wear the cone


but sometimes he's still like he cannot take it then he will like faster lick then faster scratch and bite his like, like paw area !aiyo! I think at least, two weeks


ish like that because, his wounds already healing already then he finish his antibiotic already so now only need to put like some like topical cream, ya so, after that then the then like the vet say that the <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> stitches <mandarin>会自己掉出来:hui zi ji diao chu lai</mandarin> mah so it's okay lah so now we just wear the cone for him


and then make sure that he don't chew or bite lah because he can still open up the wound like have some little small cuts that kind of thing so we don't want him to bite cause in case got bacteria inside


then my dad after because my dad went to fetch him back [right] then he brought back the pack of claws, yes, then you take his journey insurers then I'm like why is he still here


ya so it looks like it looks really gross because [right] like when I go and see like his his like paw area [right], then, like <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> cut <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> incision <mandarin>是蛮蛮高的:shi man man gao de</mandarin> leh then <mandarin>我看他:wo kan ta</mandarin> I thought the claw <mandarin>只是一个部分而已:zhi shi yi ge bu fen er yi</mandarin> then <mandarin>可是他们:ke shi ta men</mandarin> cut [right]


then I don't know what is the rest of the thing because they, open it quite big so I thought in my head like what I imagine was you just need to make like a incision around the area then you take it out lah like you take out finger like that one why your face like that


but then, !aiya! ya I already tell her I already tell my sister already like, it is her decision lor we also don't really support like my family members only like


agree to it because like they were sort of convinced that his his new claw nail will eventually grow into a ring then will hook until things but then I'm like I already tell them already like , if you trim it like the rest of the nails then it probably won't lah this kind of thing is you must trim from trim him since like when he is young mah then you like


desensitize him that kind of thing, then I don't know it's like you know you have when you have, financial means then you feel that you can do a lot of things that kind of thing so I'm just I'm still not very like happy about it but then I cannot do anything because like <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> claw <mandarin>已经不在:yi jing bu zai</mandarin> [liao]


because like for us [right] I don't know why [right] it's like I don't think is potato's problem because we cannot change how it looks so everytime we send him to the vet [right] is like sometimes I already question if they got do it properly because they themselves also scared then in my head I'm like !huh! you scared then like why are you doing this like this job you know because when my sister tell me because I don't usually go with like potato to the vet for visit and all so my sister also send him to trim its nails and all but just not as consistently that kind of thing lah like like every few months that kind of thing usually that's what she does then


like, before he goes then they will, before he goes there then they will give him this pill lah so he eat it before like maybe, two hours before that kind but because potato is , he knows [right] when you bring him to the car and all so he will fight the drug so but even after we reach the vet [right] he's still very awake even though like we put the muzzle on him [right] sometimes my sister will come back and say like


like you can tell lah if the person is scared of your dog because when they accept potato into the clinic then, you can tell from their face that they they like very scared like that, then we like uh


because I think for potato <mandarin>他们是给它吃那个药:ta men shi gei ta chi na ge yao</mandarin> cause I think for potato like <mandarin>他是给它吃那个药:ta shi gei ta chi na ge yao</mandarin> then <mandarin>它真的是到那边:ta zhen de shi dao na bian</mandarin> [right] <mandarin>它还很:ta hai hen</mandarin> awake <mandarin>这样子:zhe yang zi</mandarin> so <mandarin>他们也是有时候他们我不懂:ta men ye shi you shi hou ta men wo bu dong</mandarin> lah I I <mandarin>我不可以真的记得他们讲什么是很像:wo bu ke yi zhen de ji de ta men jiang shen me shi hen xiang</mandarin> [orh] we manage to trim this much only because like <mandarin>他们给很多理由:ta men gei hen duo li you</mandarin> lah then we like but <mandarin>我们已经喂它:wo men yi jing wei ta</mandarin> before like a few hours already what we cannot control this type of thing also so is it we must feed three hours before because the thing is about potato is like even


like the, those ampoule one lah


because the, because like, I'm just trying to picture how you gonna like, poke the dog, with the injection


because I will think that the dog will be quite


a bit stressed and scared, but with the muzzle they cannot already bite you [right] because they will just scare you only most of the time


like, but the vet that my sister has been going they only give pill leh they never talk about jab so I don't know how this works anyway


because it's my sister the one dealing with it what so if like that then I will ask her ya lor because I honestly don't know how they handle potato but I know potato don't like to go to the vet because he always bark at them anyway


then like when you all like take care of them [right] that maybe like basically babysit them, so they are just running around like behind the reception area [right] you got like the baby gate one ah


but so far you never meet those cases like


the, like the animals in your clinic trigger other animals like that one ah


because I always think how like because the vet clinics reception area is like <mandarin>这样小而已:zhe yang xiao er yi</mandarin> lor like <mandarin>只是:zhi shi</mandarin> this big, so every time [right] I would rather choose to stay outside with my dog because I feel like, my dog would fight with the other dog that kind of thing no haven't


like that like pokemon center like that


but then the big dogs they just want to play with him [right] the cat, but it's so funny like that


then, but that time my sister got bring potato for blood donation before, but in the clinic [right], I forget where it was already at some it's also near like some private estate


then <mandarin>真的很大:zhen de hen da</mandarin> one because like when you but the parking spaces very limited lah but when you go inside, it's like very very big like bigger than like this room now also, then, like we went there I think only for blood donation only


then when we were there [right] I think I saw, got people cause people can come and collect, like, after they cremate like their animals they have this kind of services there then I think


cone


I have never seen a human urn before


but actually but actually like now like, I don't know why people want to bring back the urn as in like, I, because because oreo pass away for quite some time already like like, then the urn is just in my room so I feel like it doesn't


serve any purpose lah, I mean, if you want to remember you have your pictures and everything lah but overall after I look at it for very long, I just think like doesn't serve the purpose and it's collecting dust


like even though inside only like got ashes then like a bone remains that kind of thing so I'm abit like, actually don't think that I need an urn, like you can just scatter the ashes or something you know or use it to fertilize plants or something can it even be used to fertilize plants I don't know lah because it's


is it not like charcoal can it be used to fertilize plants I don't know


but this kind of thing ah like, it's I'm not the one making the decision just all my sister so, I'm just like okay but then now it's just like collecting dust so I just don't really see a need


yeah, ya can open I got see inside before but then like after you <mandarin>撒:sa</mandarin> already then what do you do with the urn you throw away ah


I don't know I'm just trying to think [right] can you imagine like you somebody go and <mandarin>撒:sa</mandarin> [right] then they like another person go to the beach


like <mandarin>他们捡回家:ta men jian hui jia</mandarin> then they put at home but then it's not a coral is a bone remnant but they also don't know because it looks the same


but it's so epic like you, you go overseas you just to scatter the ashes


dead body in ashes form then later they thought you smuggling things inside you know, everything also white what I don't know I don't I think it's very weird I don't think I will ever go Bali with my family but then it's damn funny like


I don't know what I think my sister won't do anything about it one judging from how she's like she will just leave it there and then let the ashes collect dust so in the end [right] the ashes and the dust will just combine and be the same together


I think highly likely because like last time I got like I just casually talk to jeremy before, then like, I don't think he's very keen because think the first thing is you cause it's it'll, it will add alot to like


cleanliness and hygiene, and, also cost but I think the main thing for us it's just cleanliness ya and then like I cause I need to think about !wah! you must bring the dog to walk, pay for the vet bills feed the dog everything is really a lot of thing then like you want to go overseas and everything [right]


then is even more, like cost if you need to send it to their boarding house or whatever, ya lor, but then I've never thought of having a cat before


how how about we start from a cat cafe or something first


but then like I don't know the most encounters I have with cats is outside like at the void deck I look at them they look at me then they meow at me so I'm like hello


but then most cats, they won't let you shower one [right] because I see like from my friend's instagram all this thing [right] like, err <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> shower <mandarin>里面:li mian</mandarin> then <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> just <mandarin>跟他冲凉:gen ta chong liang</mandarin> the cats is so the cats are okay but I think at the start


maybe they don't like but they I don't think they react very badly because like, the owners are very gentle with them also lah


but then now you got like text your colleagues there anot are they still working there


so <mandarin>你很像那种:ni hen xiang na zhong</mandarin> secret friend <mandarin>这样子:zhe yang zi</mandarin> lah, then <mandarin>谁要帮你照顾那些猫:shei yao bang ni zhao gu nei xie mao</mandarin> sia


but I thought <mandarin>你说你要买你要出国不是要去日本:ni shuo ni yao mai ni yao chu guo bu shi yao qu ri ben</mandarin> meh


ya lah so, like that lor, eh later your dinner what time you need to


you are taking what you taking


but then you take until Bedok reservoir ah, where does karina come like where is she coming from


ya very far it's like where emmanuel is staying


where does karen stay, [orh] so what is karen doing now like her job


what is she working as


then <mandarin>她是她在读什么:ta shi ta zai du shen me</mandarin> #La Salle# ah


how much does she even get paid like


!wah! then like very good leh because she already get used to the job already


but where did you find this job ah


is it like , is not a montage [right] is a


mood board that kind ah


but that time the JC thing that she did is for herself one ah or for the school


like a like F_Y_P thing cause you mean the art stream, (um) yeah, (mmhmm), ya okay so is one hour do you think we should stop stop okay I


okay hi oh not too loud err first question, err okay so once COVID ends what are your travelling plan


!huh! why JB


!huh! but like, technically <mandarin>现在可以去:xian zai ke yi qu</mandarin> Malaysia [liao] [right]


[orh], [orh] okay okay !huh! but I thought like, I I thought you would say want to go you would want to go like Bangkok cause we had plans to go Bangkok


oh ya that's true that's true


but then I I wouldn't think of going JB cause is like, you know like during the entire COVID already !wah! you wait for so long then you everyday coop <mandarin>在家里:zai jia li</mandarin> then you got nothing to do then like I I'm like super dying to go and travel right now but then like, I wouldn't think of okay if I can finally travel I won't go like oh let's go Malaysia let's go <mandarin>去塞车去:qu sai che qu</mandarin> JB <mandarin>这样子去买:zhe yang zi qu mai</mandarin> usually people go to JB to like supermarket one what and go and like


that that's true but like why would you choose to go JB when you can finally travel like I would think you you want to go further places though like personally I want to go


I want to go, I don't mind going Japan again it'll be my, !wah! how many times <mandarin>第四次:di si ci</mandarin> [liao] [le]


oh ya hor, forgot about that !huh! so only can go JB !wah! that's damn Sian, okay


oh yeah you BTO [right] eh that day you need to do the BTO then they got say, like when you get the results of, [orh] then <mandarin>你们:ni men</mandarin> book eh <mandarin>你们去:ni men qu</mandarin> BTO <mandarin>的地方:de di fang</mandarin> is it Tampines <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> #pasir ris# eh <mandarin>他们有没有:ta men you mei you</mandarin> show <mandarin>那个好像:na ge hao xiang</mandarin> I know sarah <mandarin>有跟我讲的:you gen wo jiang de</mandarin> subscription rate


something like <mandarin>很像:hen xiang</mandarin> see how many people actually like went to ballot for that like that block of flats at the area, [orh]


so is your area like over subscribed like what's the how how much did jeremy calculated for your side


[orh] but but if I'm not wrong the subscription rate also give you higher chance of getting it or not cause sarah said there's one block there's one area in is it I think #pasir ris# near MRT station one or is it Tampines can't remember where but apparently the subscription is only zero point eight means everyone who ballot for that place [right] will confirm get a flat one leh


I don't know <mandarin>她她跟我讲她去:ta ta gen wo jiang ta qu</mandarin> calculate as in I don't know how she found out but she said that there is one area the blocks is only zero point eight percent like in a way eighty percent subscribed only, so whoever who apply for the area confirm will get lah [right]


[orh] !wah! really hope you all get I have a cousin you know I told you about my cousin ben, he like apply for like seven eight years already, damn long then this time round he say, cause they wanted a I think last time they wanted a they <mandarin>要那个去:yao na ge qu</mandarin> BTO five room flat then after that they !aiya! never mind lah five room <mandarin>好像很贵:hao xiang hen gui</mandarin> then okay <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> try four room flat then after that like


cause they like seven years I think <mandarin>都:dou</mandarin> like cannot get a flat [right] so this year when they went to ballot for it they just !aiya! heck it just want to get a flat so they went down to three room flat and then #siao siao# they went to like, select like the area [right] whereby it's


it's like, sarah said it was like super oversubscribed seven times, that area , is it, no no eh was it ah eh ya ya I think it's Dakota, ya !huh! but but it's freaking three room flats leh


[orh] oh man he just wanted to get a flat end up oh no I feel so sad for him I hope I hope he get this one because like he really went through he went to talk to like the MP


like uh every like area that he applied to and now that I ask him like give him chance first he already apply for so many years then, their their wedding time keep getting postponed because they cannot get err the flat, no lah they believe in getting like HDB over condo


I think so and I think like, it's I don't know leh feels like, ya it's more it's better it's a better option for them cause generally sometimes condo not very near MRT mah, but his girlfriend mainly want to look for like


err areas that are very accessible to like MRT or like nearby a lot of like convenience or like coffee shop that kind of thing, I don't I don't I don't really think it matters cause as long as it's near MRT station then <mandarin>做工做哪里都不用紧:zuo gong zuo na li dou bu yong jin</mandarin> what [right]


I think eventually if really really really really like BTO <mandarin>不到:bu dao</mandarin> they might consider resale lah but at the moment still BTO lor, uh oh yeah that's true that's true


!aiya! then in the end I think they will just keep trying for BTO leh, eh I don't know man seven years already it's like at that at that if I'm him at that point I'm just like !aiya! <mandarin>反正都等七年了:fan zheng dou deng qi nian le</mandarin> what's <mandarin>多七年:duo qi nian</mandarin> you know


err I think they do but they are also not in like a rush like don't have a deadline or timeline lah like the girlfriend is my age, he is three three years older yeah three years older


yeah actually I agree leh I think if I can I also want to get resale


ya I know [right] I saw I saw the floor plans that cause that day sarah was going through <mandarin>那些:nei xie</mandarin> BTO <mandarin>的那个:de na ge</mandarin> floor plan [right] cause she was considering whether <mandarin>要:yao</mandarin> four room <mandarin>还是:hai shi</mandarin> five room what


then after that like I was looking at the floor plan cause you know ID so I know how to like eh what you can <mandarin>敲掉什么墙:qiao diao shen me qiang</mandarin> that kind of stuff then then how much more expensive would things be if you do this do that [right] so I was looking at all the floor plans like really very hard to do anything cause like the bomb shelter some only like you know bomb shelter location is so important because you cannot do anything to it


then like the one that the most of the four room's bomb shelter are located at the super bad place, like <mandarin>要放:yao fang</mandarin> shoe rack <mandarin>也没有没有地方做:ye mei you mei you di fang zuo</mandarin> shoe cabinet <mandarin>这样子:zhe yang zi</mandarin> then you just like you have the entire like, cause the


[orh] eh but I say first ah bomb shelter is super stuffy one leh like you really like don't want to go for very long time cause there's not much ventilation also like anyway and as I also feel that if your bomb shelter if <mandarin>要放在:yao fang zai</mandarin> kitchen [right] it shouldn't be like obstructing


like it shouldn't be on like the most inside of your kitchen like you know sometimes kitchen is L shape or something like that so the bomb shelter shouldn't be on the inside at at most it should be on like the at the entrance because whenever you have a bomb shelter you cannot do your like cabinets at all, so you basically lose like an entire wall that you can do your base cabinets and wall cabinet


yeah yeah that's true eh but then sarah's like when I was looking at sarah <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> floor plan err the the ones that she was looking at there was one location that is really very nice is at the you know like from the living room want to go into the bedrooms the entire corridor then one of the site instead of at the site where usually is like the common toilet room [right] that area is the bomb shelter I think that's the best


nice what is like if you make a false wall to cover is basically like your corridor design isn't that the best


but but that one is like five room flat so, , !aiya! but if you're going to like get five room flat anyway can just get a cheaper resale [right]


more space to play with also then you can like hack the toilet's wall hack the toilet floor,


but I think one thing to consider for a lot of singaporeans is like whether <mandarin>你买家:ni mai jia</mandarin> [right] <mandarin>会不会跟你的:hui bu hui gen ni de</mandarin> mother-in-law <mandarin>住:zhu</mandarin> you know kind of thing like will you stay with your mother-in-law


like if got really no choice or like like your parents-in-law like I don't know like cause currently jeremy house is quite big [right] then by the time like you all <mandarin>搬出去:ban chu qu</mandarin> then like they maybe don't want to stay in such a big house anymore


I don't think Singapore they continue building and you mentioned anywhere because that time I was talking to jeremy about how what are they


okay okay cause like for sarah [right] they she doesn't want to stay with parents-in-law but the chances are are quite high that she might end up staying with her parents-in-law


ya so when they buy their flat [right] they have to consider the rooms and like how or like cause when you have more people staying you have to cannot hack alot of things already what especially like cannot mix, cannot join two rooms together into one that kind


got the three gen flats basically the <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> like the extra is like got two master bedroom [right] so one is for <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> normal like parents <mandarin>住:zhu</mandarin> then the other one is like the #ah ma# or #ah gong# <mandarin>住:zhu</mandarin> one, but you really must have like like like really the parents staying there then you can buy


or like I think she got say but then I know they also cannot control mah I mean you cannot be so cruel and say eh <mandarin>我不要跟你住:wo bu yao gen ni zhu</mandarin> and then end up then <mandarin>真的就没有跟他住:zhen de jiu mei you gen ta zhu</mandarin> then that's not like that's also not very <mandarin>孝顺:xiao shun</mandarin> you know like especially for like the guy side is like


how would he feel and would his parents feel about it


no no as in <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> sarah and dion <mandarin>他们要:ta men yao</mandarin> BTO what <mandarin>他们可以买:ta men ke yi mai</mandarin> BTO cause currently the flat is under the parents name, so if <mandarin>他们现在:ta men xian zai</mandarin> BTO then, they will just moved into the flat lah which they don't <mandarin>他们讲:ta men jiang</mandarin> they don't plan to move out from that like


place if they get a good place that kind of thing so they are also not looking at like <mandarin>这种:zhe zhong</mandarin> three room <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> so actually <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> that's why they would even considering between like four room or five room because, to alot people <mandarin>他们:ta men</mandarin> don't wanna get like five room because <mandarin>他们讲:ta men jiang</mandarin> four room <mandarin>就够了:jiu gou le</mandarin> then maybe in the next few years <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> just like you know upgrade to a better place like condo or whatever lah but for them is they don't mind whether getting a four room or five room cause like they don't have the intention of like moving out like moving from property after property like a lot of singaporeans lah


like, for me when I was younger also, and I think very thankful I was asking my mum about it like eh <mandarin>你没有去想过:ni mei you qu xiang guo</mandarin> like


but then my mum say actually she very lucky lah cause, my #ah ma# is a very easy to get along like mother-in-law


like not much don't have demands one like not the kind of nitpick one like you know that someone is like ah <mandarin>你没有去你没有你没有洗盘自己的衣服不要洗啊内衣内裤自己也不要洗:ni mei you qu ni mei you ni mei you xi pan zi ji de yi fu bu yao xi a nei yi nei ku zi ji ye bu yao xi</mandarin> then <mandarin>早上起来没有做你的床:zao shang qi lai mei you zuo ni de chuang</mandarin> that kind of stuff, but like there are a lot of stories I heard like that but apparently from my mum my #ah ma# wasn't like this


but I think the difficult part is like, you know like <mandarin>老人家:lao ren jia</mandarin> when they become, much older, then you know they cannot take care of themselves then they stop being what then, err


yeah, but anyway


[orh] ya ya I also remember <mandarin>那是:na shi</mandarin> like when we were a kid when we were kids


I think we had a few maids I think I think four eh no three three different maids in total then all of them like, quite okay lah I don't have bad memory any but there's only one especially that I got very good memories of so like let's say more like what you say she will always play with us


very interested in like taking care of us that kind, like she will at her own time like before we sleep then she will like do role play you know using all of our soft toys then go and like she she will play lah like play plays with us like how we would play with our own toys that kind


think that was like the best, maid that I had as like a kid, yeah, but like the recent ones because my maids were all to take care of #ah ma# one, like, not, yeah not not very good lah as in she can take care of #ah ma# quite well like I told you know the the one from Myanmar


ya she she's good at taking care of #ah ma# but then when it comes to housework, err I think our I I don't think our expectations are very high like just, not very competent at doing things like you know everytime <mandarin>我们洗东西:wo men xi dong xi</mandarin> [right] we'll make sure that


everything is clean, right but every time she clean [right] then when we when we want to use the plate we take out from the cupboard then there's all these like food residue and then makes us so Pek-Cek because you have to go and wash again then sometimes you want to use a dry plate you don't want to use like washed plate then every time like


if you want to dry you must use the paper towel then you waste the, things, yeah, yeah we told her so many times and then like actually initially when we you got her to clean things [right] we thought she never clean this we thought she didn't clean the plates properly because like when we drink water from the cup we could smell the detergent


I'm like the detergent taste was so strong and then like, very <mandarin>反胃:fan wei</mandarin> especially sometimes you okay not just the cup like even the you know the the plates that we use to put our <mandarin>料:liao</mandarin> at when we eat dinner then


!wah! it's the freaking detergent then we were just like okay then we just didn't touch that dish for the night !wah! that was traumatic man I think ever since then we never ask her to cook that dish ever again


yeah, but that was !wah! that was, that was one of the many incompetent things regarding housework


ya really like the <mandarin>味道:wei dao</mandarin> is like there's usually you'll taste the ketchup smell you know


ya so like !aiya! yeah I mean cause <mandarin>那一道有:na yi dao you</mandarin> sauce mah then then because <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> sauce then maybe we can taste so we don't even know [right] like if the other plates she got wash properly a not


because then like <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> don't know what have we been eating leh, like like unintentionally, ya then I I told you [right] <mandarin>他那时每次扫地的时候他不会讲:ta na shi mei ci sao di de shi hou ta bu hui jiang</mandarin> I mean


I mean <mandarin>他不会等:ta bu hui deng</mandarin> I think even if <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> not gonna stand there for very long like we are just taking something from the drawer, then !wah! this is so


peculiar leh my my dad was so angry that day he scold lah is like you sweeping floor or sweeping me that kind of thing , then like okay I don't think she understands cause like she's not very fluent in english also like when we when we ask her to do things she have to


, like she will nod but we don't even know if she understands like she will just nod all the time until we so Pek-Cek it's like if you know you say yes if you don't know it's okay to say no, then she just nod again !wah! then I think my parents, flip table


well for me is okay like I always try to be on like the side of humans you know like every book write to err is human that kind then I always want to give her chance but I tell you even for like someone as patient that I I think I'm quite patient already


but like I also have like so much thing I can say about her it really shows like, how much how much stress she has been giving my family but I mean at the end of the day she can take care of #ah ma# lah and I think that's what matters the most I mean that's why we have a maid in the first place mah to take care of #ah ma#


then like how to order food how to count like cause you know sometimes she cannot even count money when she come like she don't know how to count like


coins and notes so she cannot go shop like she cannot go grocery shopping by herself, but at least like the old helper already <mandarin>教他:jiao ta</mandarin> how to <mandarin>去巴刹:qu ba sha</mandarin> then <mandarin>每次:mei ci</mandarin> #ah ma# <mandarin>喜欢去哪一个摊吃什么:xi huan qu na yi ge tan chi shen me</mandarin> then <mandarin>每:mei</mandarin> like roughly <mandarin>吃饭多少钱这样子:chi fan duo shao qian zhe yang zi</mandarin> lah sometimes #ah ma# also quite blur one she will like


err ask to buy something and then only give like <mandarin>一块:yi kuai</mandarin> like <mandarin>一块半:yi kuai ban</mandarin> or something like that, then obviously <mandarin>一块半:yi kuai ban</mandarin> is not enough for whatever she wants but the new one wouldn't know so she will just take the <mandarin>一块半:yi kuai ban</mandarin> and go to the <mandarin>巴刹:ba sha</mandarin> and then end up don't have enough to pay so, my old helper actually already taught her all these things so


can take care of #ah ma# lah just cannot take care of the house, [orh] this one was the one that the helper use actually, !aiya! I tell you it was such a trauma cause like


a few weeks before #ah ma# passed away we discovered [orh] she was changing the bedsheet in this room then she discovered that, her bed [right] got like black spots then she like some parts like rotten also like you know like <mandarin>有一点烂烂:you yi dian lan lan</mandarin> one like the corner


then it's obviously something to be concerned about so she came out then called my dad to see what it is then we go in its like oh my gosh is it bed bugs is it some kind of infestation, so, err I think we just throw away the entire bed so had to buy a mattress for her mah so just nice <mandarin>在楼下的家私店:zai lou xia de jia si dian</mandarin> we just like go and see then happen to see like


got mattress can buy for like for her to Dong <mandarin>住:zhu</mandarin> to sleep for awhile, so we just bought lor so this is actually very new, the plastic <mandarin>丢掉了:diu diao le</mandarin> because who who expected that, we will not be using like who expected that just two weeks later #ah ma# will like


pass away [right] then like my helper will be sent out like go back to the agent, so, now this bed is , lying here I feel we still thinking what to do with it cause we scared cause bed bugs [right] they have the bed bugs issue then we scared like the bugs also travel to this one but I believe they also spray down the entire mattress


, so that day my dad he bought <mandarin>了那个:le na ge</mandarin> bed bug spray what so he went around spraying the entire room like all the corners, all the like err he say he the wheelchair he just spam only


then the this table also spam, the wardrobe outside lah he didn't touch the inside, ya quite quite extensive because after that spray he also use that the I told you the in in intense burning smoke thing that


fill up the entire room, yeah, I I think should be fine


what smell, [orh] I think bed bug is attracted to warmth and moisture [right] [orh] oh my gosh I didn't know that no leh #ah ma# <mandarin>没有被咬:mei you bei yao</mandarin> but when <mandarin>我们:wo men</mandarin> open <mandarin>他的:ta de</mandarin> mattress <mandarin>的时候:de shi hou</mandarin> [right] we saw bed bugs leh


I think <mandarin>是死掉的:shi si diao de</mandarin> lah but then like it wasn't it wasn't like crawling or what but it was there, like her mattress, ya then we just throw everything off, but #ah ma# didn't have any bed bugs bite like the whole time, !huh! but I think bed bugs also quite scary leh if you have like infested


but it's still like gross, if <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> my dad already spray [liao] lah but I don't think have


ya so like anyway, this room is going to be converted to be my room then I'm only going to change the painting for this side of the wall, change to the jasper green colour ya, at first I wanted to like do something special you know like paint half you know like #hua hui#'s room you see her videos so her room is I think like dark blue like the one that jeremy chose like the the blue that we all rejected because it's like I feel like it's a girl colour so #hua hui#'s room is like


like the bottom half only the all throughout her room is that dark blue colour, quite Chio leh, white, the top part is white, ya, ya half wall, ya correct


like my platform is going to be high enough to, put the luggages inside because currently you see my room [right] the bed is a lift up bed then inside can store things so, in like that time the two beds that we had here was kept they had a lot of things stored inside so basically this platform that we are wanting to build will store all these things that use to be in there so at least easel all the luggages then like winter clothes this kind


and this Mahjong table, no lah just platform platform we can just get my factory to do what, like we just draw out the thing for them the measurements we measure ourselves then we ask send to the factory then they <mandarin>帮我们做:bang wo men zuo</mandarin> lah


uh it's not semi it's permanent, it's a so wherever you're sitting now


the entire stretch it's gonna be the platform it's gonna be about four hundred to five hundred, CM high, maybe like that, like like like this lah I think, ya then err it'll be until say that line there


like the length then uh I my my dresser will be on the platform so my bed will be on the left side, like horizontally like this then at the end will be my dressing table, yeah


it's okay once it's done you could see, okay shall we move to the next topic next topic what do you wanna say or talk about, err which one was exciting, ha oh okay, eh eh let's do about pets


, okay, so


!ee! but how long already ah since the surgery


[orh] !huh! but the vet never I every time I think about the declawing thing I still think it's so like


your dad brought the claws back home, why


because it's so, cruel take out why you take out your you taking out a finger nail leh, easily you know we also don't really support back my family members only like
