maybe I make pancake but I don't make for you lor, I don't want to wake you up and so, , !aiya! I I don't know lah I see how first, I think think


have ryan right that time told me what no more maple syrup ask me to buy and buy and buy luckily I went to NTUC and then they sold out leh, and then I come back home right he opened the fridge and, mum did you buy a new bottle of maple syrup


and then I was like what I thought you told me no more maple syrup and he says, c, !huh!, don't have leh that day don't have leh, , !aiya! I don't know lah you know his eyes see what I see like today I go out he also don't know


!aiya! but anyway got maple syrup but maybe I would I but I don't think I will do pancake maybe just eat cereal, up to you then lunch how


!aiya! I should cook hor, eh actually ah <mandarin>我想做那个:wo xiang zuo na ge</mandarin> Kimchi pancake leh, but


!wah! <mandarin>很:hen</mandarin> Sian leh <mandarin>七早八早叫我去:qi zao ba zao jiao wo qu</mandarin> NTUC, I don't want just to buy one spring onion, yes I have actually need spring onion or not


!huh! I just put capsicums and prawns cannot meh, then how what should I do but I don't feel like going to NTUC in the morning eh


err, let me think again oh I know I bought kale the other day, pizza, I got Otah in the freezer


then <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> actually hor <mandarin>有:you</mandarin> pineapple leh, but <mandarin>没有:mei you</mandarin> ham, then what other what other pizza can I make


I don't have pork belly, I cannot use those meat that I have for pizza though a bit gross they are the thick thick kind one so, vegetarian no I don't think so


yeah what do people put for that kind of what triple cheese pizza, then like that very easy I just pour all my cheese onto the pizza <mandarin>不是叫:bu shi jiao</mandarin> triple cheese Liao lor


then <mandarin>买到来每次都很贵一包十二块十四块小小包:mai dao lai mei ci dou hen gui yi bao shi er kuai shi si kuai xiao xiao bao</mandarin> only


then lately I went to Phoon Huat during the circuit breaker I saw that they have this whole big packet of pizza topping, and is so cheap it's just fourteen dollars you know for what I think one KG worth of cheese leh


ya so I I have been buying that now I don't know I can't make myself pay for, the other cheese from cold storage anymore, ya


okay, or can I just make two, Otah pizza, two only


ya but I don't know how leh, I, !aiya! that but <mandarin>那个圆圈的:na ge yuan quan de</mandarin> pan <mandarin>我每次用了你忘记了:wo mei ci yong le ni wang ji le</mandarin> meh <mandarin>那个:na ge</mandarin> dough <mandarin>跑进那个圆圈:pao jin na ge yuan quan</mandarin> then <mandarin>全部:quan bu</mandarin> got stuck


!huh! I thought is the same


oh but I think that depends on how how I roll isn't it, !aiyo! don't know leh how man, !aiya! can I decide tomorrow maybe tomorrow I wake up or maybe up then makes sense lah if I go cold storage I buy spring onion and ham


so, I can do pizza for lunch, then maybe do, your Kimchi pancake for dinner


cold storage nearby leh NTUC you know how far or not, !alamak! <mandarin>一包:yi bao</mandarin> spring onion <mandarin>而已可以便宜到哪里:er yi ke yi pian yi dao na li</mandarin> NTUC <mandarin>几毛钱的东西:ji mao qian de dong xi</mandarin> I don't care lah


I will try not to buy too many many things, but maybe <mandarin>我去买:wo qu mai</mandarin> avocado


then that day <mandarin>我再去:wo zai qu</mandarin> cold storage <mandarin>我买三粒大大粒的:wo mai san li da da li de</mandarin> avocado, but <mandarin>那个三粒很大粒:na ge san li hen da li</mandarin> I think much better than four <mandarin>小小粒:xiao xiao li</mandarin> one


so I don't know !aiya! see how lah can I decide tomorrow, there


[orh] !huh! then <mandarin>还要买:hai yao mai</mandarin> Kimchi, oh <mandarin>你知道:ni zhi dao</mandarin> next week I'm going to meet, auntie connie


then I also ask her like when she's free we can meet up eh do you know her business is doing so well


ya !aiya! I don't know whether I want to treat her or not leh, !aiya! maybe lah see how, no I'm meeting her with dad and then she with her husband so four of us are going for lunch


I can't remember which day though <mandarin>我们很像:wo men hen xiang</mandarin> arrange Liao but <mandarin>我忘记:wo wang ji</mandarin> Liao, I don't know leh maybe hor eh ya now her Kimchi is for sale leh I probably have to buy from her if I want to eat


the eh she's earning so much thirty dollars per five hundred gram, ya, I have no idea leh five hundred gram is a very small box hill only you know you know you go and <mandarin>打包的扁扁:da bao de bian bian</mandarin> box is five hundred gram


you know they sometimes got one tall tall taller box lah your hokkien mee is the box is quite tall one right, rectangular and tall right, ya hers is like half that rectangle leh


ya and that's five hundred grams she sell for thirty dollars leh, !walao! her business very good okay, she you know she every time take a picture of her food her Kimchi boxes I was counting


!wah! like I think each of each time she open her fridge to store she can sell like more than fifty, over boxes or she always says she don't know sell how boxes that's why I was


ya, and that's like one week leh she say she do every week eh so if she do more than that she's earning a few thousand dollar leh, ya I'm serious ya so much eh


from selling Kimchi she earn a few thousand dollars leh, I think her customer I have no idea leh but she got I think she got a lot of repeated customer then also because of word of mouth


then end up, I think minimum maybe one KG [bah] I don't know, eh oh ya hor then maybe thirty dollars lah !aiya! actually I don't know but you know Kimchi can keep in the fridge for very long the longer you keep the better it tastes


not so easy one leh you think what you remember how you chop your


chilli chop until you cry because too hot she has to but I'm sure she got some blender lah she got to blend the chilli then got garlic got a lot of garlic one leh she show picture of her ingredient


then why you eat, then why do you eat Kimchi Kimchi inside actually a lot of garlic one, I don't know lah but her I think she earn like a few thousand dollars each month now now she wears eh she bought a new fridge you know


to, ya can you imagine buy one new fridge because I think maybe her old fridge too old already [bah], and then


ya that's why but I don't know and some more her ingredient cost very cheap one leh you buy those kind of Wombok cabbage few dollars only what


ya then after that you must wash the cabbage then must soak with salt ah I think she used a lot of salt, something like that lah, ya ya ya


yes yes she got a lot a lot of bucket leh a lot a lot of basin to soak all her eh but I tell you a secret, she bought a new washing machine to wash her kimchi cabbage


can lah but is the washing machine is just wash the vegetable only, not like to wash clothes one so is clean wash clothes, no lah of course not so no soap lah


eh I thought quite okay what tumble tumble tumble then wash wash wash quite clean isn't it just water only rather, !aiya! but I don't know lah see, but I think quite good nobody say any like fall sick or what but I think it should be cleaner though if you ask me rather


or maybe she just fill it up with a lot of water then she just put the, cabbage the whole cabbage in and tumble tumble tumble in a net


I think okay what just will tumble with water only is perfectly fine, ya, correct lor I don't know leh !wah!


I eh but actually not everybody can wash very clean one leh you think what last time, ya last time our maid, wash until our <mandarin>弟弟:di di</mandarin> !walao! the whole face pimple everywhere never wash


his milk bottle properly then got one time caused him to get food poisoning, very terrible you know, you so young of course you don't remember lah but I don't like that maid lah so disgusting leh


I don't know leh actually her I, her washing machine is top down one so I think top loaded so I think can wash quite a bit lah, err, how heavy is one Wombok


so can wash what one two KG wash five five six cabbage I don't know how many Kimchi is that though, ya quite true


no but that five hundred gram you must include remember Kimchi is not all cabbage you got, carrots, ya what everything adds a little bit of weight <mandarin>就是:jiu shi</mandarin> five hundred gram already


eh ya ya ya she damn resourceful I tell you that's why I think her business very good not because she just do Kimchi she got do a lot other thing you know she got that kind of don't know what keto for keto people then those keto people keto diet people don't eat carrot then she will say like okay I customized for you your Kimchi got no carrot kind


then, don't know leh they say what carrot is carbohydrates I have no idea leh, really meh, ya I don't know leh they say keep keto diet cannot eat carrot so they only eat plain cabbage


ya have have I remember she got it's not called spring onion Kimchi is called chives


I think they anyhow call one lah it's not called is chives is chives Kimchi then she also got make radish Kimchi, ya square square one, then she I don't know I think she I never see her make cucumber Kimchi I only see her make these two


actually cucumber Kimchi, it don't you think is a bit like Acar


is it so it doesn't taste like Acar, different, oh, oh !aiyo! then next time we try you make


ah ha, eh I say cucumber Kimchi lah cucumbers no need to not so hard to wash what, easy to watch ah cabbage is the one that is very hard because so many leaves then <mandarin>一个一个拔一个一个洗:yi ge yi ge ba yi ge yi ge xi</mandarin> leh <mandarin>麻烦的:ma fan de</mandarin> leh


I don't want lah if I want I buy from her, but anyway see how lah I meeting her then see how but I think she's doing very well lah, some more her husband working very well also


ya lor lucky lor, err, the elder one still inside army


eh you know he say he is going to change school leh initially he, err got accepted to NTU then now I think he don't want already, NTU now he was that time he wanted to do what computer science or computer study that kind


ya, but then now he change his mind he say NTU too far so he wants to try SUTD, SUTD <mandarin>是一件新的学校:shi yi jian xin de xue xiao</mandarin> you know so I think don't have


you who got first batch graduate already or not !huh!, oh, but there are not like so well known yet mah


!aiya! NTU also very far what, ya lah so have to give this kind of new university some time to grow, I think they when they grow old they get like more


the awards from different country then they'll be more recognized, I don't know leh I hear like SUTD first year everybody study same thing one leh


ya then


!huh! four different courses only ah


oh so err maybe he he but that one near his house lah so maybe that's why he decided to just choose there then don't need to stay hostel or something can go home every day, !huh! everybody must stay hostel one


why, I think my <mandarin>朋友:peng you</mandarin> say the first year everybody must stay one


you <mandarin>要不要:yao bu yao</mandarin> share <mandarin>房间:fang jian</mandarin> or one to one one person one room


but !aiyo! so scary leh you go in then you don't know that person then you anyhow share room with anyone like that


!ee!, it not own self choose one is they random anyhow <mandarin>配:pei</mandarin> one, [orh] and not eh you mean they can give people orientation first then after that then they ask people to fill up some choice mah where got any how like that put people inside a room with another person one


so your friend stay in a hostel one year already, so she, [orh] so <mandarin>她:ta</mandarin> the second year can opt to stay again lah


cheap cheap, but cheap is how much


[orh] !walao! then <mandarin>他住在:ta zhu zai</mandarin> so near <mandarin>还要去住:hai yao qu zhu</mandarin> hostel <mandarin>他走路都可以走到他的学校:ta zou lu dou ke yi zou dao ta de xue xiao</mandarin> leh, ya, eh <mandarin>你知道那个:ni zhi dao na ge</mandarin> SUTD <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> gorilla <mandarin>的那边而已:de na bian er yi</mandarin> leh

I don't know, I think <mandarin>他不会给我:ta bu hui gei wo</mandarin> #mao shan wang# lah


ya, ya lor <mandarin>我也不知道:wo ye bu zhi dao</mandarin> then you know <mandarin>他讲:ta jiang</mandarin> the Gardenia bread right, come from malaysia


but then you know in malaysia they cannot buy raisin bread walnut bread banana walnut bread that kind of special flavour they don't have one, ya he says those are for exports


I don't know then he says over in malaysia they only sell white Gardenia bread, come those ya so then he he came out then auntie renee say !huh! you buy so many loaf of raisin bread and walnut bread back


no you can freeze them then <mandarin>就:jiu</mandarin> okay Liao [mah] you freeze Buang <mandarin>在:zai</mandarin> put in the freezer


okay okay okay I think it's fine, so that's all we have to do right for to start, uh yes sit two metres away, from each other which we are and two CM away from our mouse


correct, okay okay, okay so basically like I you haven't you, I'll I'll, explain the video to you again so basically they're saying like in each of your mother tongues right you can code switch but it's not like a obvious thing like you cannot be like cannot talk in english for like


twenty four minutes then because you need to have five percent then you switch to chinese more, ya so a bit like that lah, okay ya I like that's fine then like quoting people is also not good


then you only say speak in chinese when you're quoting that person ya, okay, so that's it but they only, four ya, code switching ya


which form, where got no no no you submitted but you have to submit your recording after you submit this, form right so we can just record first then, later


we when we are done with this one hour of recording then we submit the form ya basically ya I don't think you should be reading out something though, you should be like it should be like ya it should be


natural, ya, ya, okay so I'm gonna I'm going to tell you about the place, I'm moving into next year right the photos


next no, uh <mandarin>六月:liu yue</mandarin> september, ya ya I'm new because my current place I have it till what err


eighteenth, of ya, then , no I can't cannot, no eighteenth, no new place, fourteenth, so I've


fourteenth to eighteen <mandarin>我有:wo you</mandarin> I have four days, to to move into because let me let me let me let me show you, so, so like


so like here is the, there's a this is the big shopping center right, can you just put that down you don't have to hold it as so my current one is this building here, right


so, ya ya ya so err the entrance to the MRT is uh and uh the tube is here then you walk down this way, what no no no that's the that's my previous place !huh!


ya, ya <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> no but the one that you haven't been to my current place, I'm talking about my new place my my current place is over here the one that you walked too is not through here


uh <mandarin>去哪了:qu na le</mandarin> ah, uh <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> this one this one, this is the one you you guys went to, no this is the one you guys went to


you guys have only literally been to one place ya ya


ya no no that's the olympic stadium west ham is that the same thing oh okay I have no idea probably I mean I don't see anything else right


now okay so <mandarin>从这里:cong zhe li</mandarin> MRT uh MRT station basically MRT lah uh the entrance is here then you walk out, so I walk across where, where got where did I even okay I I walk okay wait no wait let me


let me get my bearings, ya may red let me see, okay okay so I get out from I think this is uh an older, uh uh a picture so this one you walk here you walk


and then you eh, wait I'm very confused I don't that's not my place


then you walk here then I turn right here turn left here, this one no no exactly


ya ya, then it's very near right because that the the tube station entrance is here then <mandarin>这里是:zhe li shi</mandarin> the supermarket that I the another entrance at the supermarket that I go through


then, the new place I'm going to is this building, like the one I'm moving into next the the the the video I showed you you know


so my current place the one I've been living in this year this one <mandarin>对对对:dui dui dui</mandarin> so <mandarin>你们去过的是这个完全不同:ni men qu guo de shi zhe ge wan quan bu tong</mandarin> then <mandarin>这个是:zhe ge shi</mandarin> the one I'm I'm living in right now and you guys have never been there ya


okay it's uh it's the same, it's basically the same area the same east village but


but like you will just moving to next yes not even the next block I'm moving to the block behind mine so like it's a it's actually touching the buildings are literally touching


I mean no it's because we moved at a time where the the rental rates were so much higher, so like last year because things were normal right so, we were paying two thousand thirty per month


ya, no no the they won't offer that because every year the prices have to go up with inflation, right


I don't know we didn't ask but it's not a landlord it's like a it's like a company so there's a lot of bureaucracy as well, uh what do you mean


brand new like what, no because <mandarin>现在:xian zai</mandarin> because of because of COVID and everything all the a lot of people are moving out especially the the well to do internationals so they're moving out so there's less there's less demand right ya ya


okay so right now if we were to carry on staying at this place it will be two thousand and fifty per month


uh slightly more last year last year we were paying, two thousand thirty, up by twenty which is not a lot but considering that I feel like we are already paying quite a fair bit so like why not right


because the new place it's thousand eight seventy five, ya you save a lot


no the uh when we move, the new place because right now I have like you know it's a duplex right so I have like my own floor there's like the the the top floor's like completely mine


oh okay you guys will never see it, ya but , ya like I feel like I gave up a bit more in terms of space because I have less like personal space as the added corridor to like read to like study and stuff but if I'm saving so saving so much ya and like


it's, oh one thing I like is that it's not on the ground floor because my current place is on the ground floor, ya and like, and like there's always people smoking outside then there was one time like there's one time this animal shat outside my door did did I show you that picture it was like it was like err it's like there's a rubber band here right then beside the rubber band there was this huge pile of shit


it was like it was even it wasn't even like it was no no no no no no cannot it can't it can't be a cat because it was a lot of shit


but it was like okay I I don't know but I had to clean it up and I I really do not want to do that again, what do you mean, it's it's in my front porch it's literally right outside my door no one is going to clean it if I don't clean it ya


so ya gonna move to that place I think, uh, so okay lah, pyramid <mandarin>可以看那个:ke yi kan na ge</mandarin> the map


uh <mandarin>那那边有写啊:na na bian you xie a</mandarin>, how you know, ah no my my my number I I can't say numbers in in chinese no as in like I like I get mixed up with certain numbers like six or nine I get very very mixed up and and I mix it up in with in english also


like when I talk about my months like when I think of march I can't think which which number it is, no dyslexia is for words, okay so, like


no this is my, estate map ya so the the entire place was like because of the olympics right then they built the entire area for the for the uh uh for the athletes to live in so <mandarin>现再没有人住了吗:xian zai mei you ren zhu le ma</mandarin> so they converted it into all these ya ya ya because they built it exactly for the athletes but after they left then they


they need they have all these empty houses then might as well <mandarin>给人住:gei ren zhu</mandarin> lor <mandarin>不是政府的:bu shi zheng fu de</mandarin> ya, then , so


ya ya ya ya ya ya, ya ya ya ya ya that that makes sense so okay basically like, the MRT station is here and then I usually like walk up here, and then I'm walk up this road, and then I walk here and then there's a this is this is here where I live like in this house here


and then the the new where I'm moving will be into this one which is great because , cause like the gym is here then, if I want to walk, and to to get groceries it's here so it's it's


ya ya ya so so Sonya and jason used to live here no no no they are moving into my old place I told you right so you know the place that I used to live in for in second year


ya that one then moving to the exact same apartment, because it's cheap we were paying like what two five five twenty a week they're paying four fifty a week, for the exact same apartment


I think, ya ya ya but it's for for for that complex is considered very cheap already like all the other places are going for super cheap this year


no no no that's that's a complete different area like I don't like that area over there it's a bit more dodgy, ya, ya, ya I prefer this area and then DLR is like you know how like uh along like


, uh you know how like the Siglap area they have there ya ya Sengkang they have the one and there is one the LRT ya ya, essentially like, like it's like a slower it's like more like a tram kind of thing like they they they serve like mostly like the east


like from from here to like canary wharf, to a few places no no okay so that's the that's the one that you, you use to get the the quick rail to king's cross


so you know how like if you take the tube it takes like an almost an hour to get the king's cross counted as like taking the MRT right then it's a bit slower lah but this one is a high speed rail and it gets you to king's cross in this high speed train in seven minutes


ya seven minutes and you are there, and and from king's cross uh they call it saint pancras international that's the one where you have the the the train to like france and belgium the sort of thing ya ya


so it's super convenient because, like, if if I'm taking a train out of london, or if or if teachers coming to, london then he just takes stairs, ya because the the trains from everywhere else in the UK also come to king's cross


newcastle down down down ya


no he will he will arrive at okay he will arrive at , king's cross, the the king's cross train station but within king's cross areas of there's king's cross train station king's cross tube station and saint pancras international so three three different thing three different stations that are around that area


so he just walks across the road and then he takes the fast train here ya but it's a bit more expensive it's like four pounds


ya then I go to I go to beach rose here, like


oh it's another it's another apartment complex that's like it's another privately owned apartment complex which has like, , it's a it's a concept where they have multiple


multiple they have like residential they also have a hotel and they also have I think they have shops inside as well or offices, ya, so ya I'm I'm quite happy that we're moving because it's it's it's a nice place though I'm saving a lot of money


it's just it's just a pity because if if we had known we were going to move than we would have just left left our things in storage right if not instead of paying like five months how many months, march, april, how many months has it been three eight eight minutes three that's five months five months of rent you know


champions trip eh, uh I I literally saw champion's


medal's way, oh oh they just said that when we go back there is a few champions league, games


germany, all in germany, which which city


, so it's all away away


oh so before that it was around robin !huh!, oh oh right champions league yes yes yes yes yes yes


okay, it used to be home and away also then grand final is just one single, okay


but there are all all of them will be in in these four cities but but then what happens if so are you saying that like, will be like uh city A is, a certain number of teams and then city B is a certain number of teams so there will be two from each city


so they play !huh!, oh okay so each city will have one match but but before but before semi finals do all the teams in one city battle until there's only two


okay ya ya ya


ya but how are they playing the sixteen the the the ah


oh like before COVID oh I see okay,


ya,


, okay


don't put the the phone so close to your face, supposed to be twenty CM, ya but I don't know if like they want there too be like, interference from


you know how like sometimes if you put a microphone to close to your face it gets muffled, I don't know, I don't know I I don't know why they why they want want us to be two metres away anyway


I hope so, should be fine lah I think okay, it's a lot of it's a lot of talking you know


okay, I usually don't talk so much at one go, oh okay uh Tayches'S mum hasn't sent me the flight details yet but he said it's like eleven o'clock PM ya can you pass me the lip balm my lips are very dry from all this talking


ya, no lah uh don't you want to go, ya I mean don't you want to go


ya, ya, , , ya


no I'm only allowed one, I like uh oh I can't remember how what wait I know it's very little I remember when I came I didn't know what to I think so I think it was but no I can just <mandarin>如如果如果不够位:ru ru guo ru guo bu gou wei</mandarin> then I'll just put everything in my


carry on, and like just lug it on


no it was okay, no and the last time I went back I had I had more space, I had I had two suitcases, because this this time I flew BA, and my my suitcase also full I had to put some of my stuff in Tayches'S suitcase


so I'm, ya it wasn't the weight that was a problem it was the size of my suitcase, so like the I had still I still had a lot of weight allowance it was just like I couldn't fit everything in


, I think you should be twenty three, oh ya, well I'll figure something out


I didn't even bring that much stuff leh what did I oh okay I brought a few like , like food things back because there were expiring then I brought them back, so that would have, contributed to quite quite a fair bit of weight


but I'm not gonna bring that back because it's like I actually brought them back to to throw them anyway so a bit useless, and I I bought I bought some clothes yesterday I went to uniqlo ya ya ya I'll show you okay I brought I bought jeans


oh your jeans from uniqlo


they it better than normal jeans because I feel like they're more fit for like like asian fit, ya lor, ya but like I feel okay I feel like their their their jeans are more straight cut because asians are a bit more squarish right so I bought this pair of jeans I really like this pair of jeans


ya it's jeans what else would it be, no they don't look like jeans, ya and it's ripped at the bottom


and I bought a pair of black jeans also that look a bit like trousers and like they helped me to alter it so that's good I want to alter some of my clothes before I go back that's why I messaged you that day


I was thinking about going to duo liney, they do alterations, ya, ya


they'll be done within a few days, so I was thinking of doing that, they charge because like they charge like eight to ten for for shortening, ya, which is okay right it's cheaper than ya but travelling there then having to go back


ya but I have to carry my clothes on the bus, remember that time I went to do our laundry and then I had to carry like how many like almost twenty kilos, no ten kilos almost ten kilos of clothes


drag ten kilos of clothes to duo liney eh, ya but it's still bulky, ya, like it's on the bus you know then you have to carry that many things then


three people no it's supposed to be two people, no you just didn't read them properly it's you and a partner


I assume so ya


what what do you mean by talk funny


as in that's literally what we're supposed to do because because that's how singaporeans speak and, I don't know they are trying to make a make a make make the AI software, understand what we're saying do you think the human listen to our conversation or is it just they just feed it into the AI


is it okay, because there's a lot of hours of of listening you know I don't think anyone has that sort of sort of time, to listen to our conversation


yes, but I mean aren't they are not they are not apple they don't have the same software as apple, they're trying to develop their software like apple unless they are apple


ya but siri because because google home, ya, ya ya ya ya ya they can, what recording


ya so at the start they were like uh tell you to be like to like okay repeat after me then they will then google will tell you a phrase and then and then you, and then you repeat the phrase to them then you say a few things and then they understand your voice pattern and your your voice because like if like if my if anyone else came and spoke to my Google like no one they will not respond


unless that person it recognises that person's voice, , ya


ya but I I feel like sometimes it doesn't listen to other people I'm not sure why, like some like it doesn't listen to, I don't know, ya ya ya I know but sometimes like it doesn't hear listen doesn't wouldn't recognize other people like you will know when it's me and then


it's not me, ya, ya, but it knows that it's not it's not me lah, ya


ya but I didn't tell it to I but it it's not meant to not respond to other people, I think it's just less sensitive maybe I I don't know, I think uh they were saying something like they they one of the questions was whether you've done this with NUS before


right a speech recognition thing with NUS so maybe they are like, developing it with NUS because they have like NUS database or something I don't know


ya exactly it's better to have more samples because, different different peoples different people speak different levels of singlish and, and different languages also because


they were looking for like people with a chinese mother tongue malay and tamil, ya but he doesn't speak english


and it has to be ten to fifty percent mother tongue which means fifty to ninety percent english


oh ya, no no no but it has to be each individual person ya ya ya that's what I thought at start also but I think no they will be too many of us and it'll be too noisy, right


, why, ya, they they just asked us to clap at the start because they want to sync the two recordings maybe one so that you're clearer and than one form so that I'm clearer and then these they had a clap such that


they can sync the timing on both our phones


I initially I was thinking right I can do it with Tayches because like we are going to be in quarantine for two weeks together right then, we can't because we don't speak the same mother tongue, just your mother tongue speaker has to be the same language


ya ya I I read it and I I asked the lady I asked lady like oh does my conversation partner have to speak the same mother tongue as me, then she's like ya, if not it'll be perfect cause we have two weeks of, of of no one but ourselves like literally we are the only people we can talk to


ya, I guess so no but I think the the issue would be if I lapsed into chinese and then he wouldn't be able to understand me


and then if he lapsed into tamil he wouldn't be I wouldn't be able to understand him, but like if it was it was like really really simple chinese he would be able to understand


I don't know I don't know I I can last them again but like I really don't about that, also if maybe because like we don't have the same type of singlish accent, you know, because


no ya I mean like chinese people speak differently from malay people who speak different from indian people, right like if you close your eyes and you hear someone talk in singlish can kind of tell that like


what their, their ethnic background is, like chinese people cannot roll theirs,


I just kept the receipt, ya, uh know I have to return one of it so basically like this one I told you right


I know because there's a different cover look at it, no it's a different cover the cover is different, do you not see it


it's literally a different cover it's a different material, ya lah, there's a different cover yes but that's how I know which one is the old one yes


the older the older one is, the the newer one is more matte that's how I know, but I need to return the new one because, they apparently want me to return the the new, because they they gave me a new one right


then I asked them to give me another replacement, which is that one outside there, but I now now now but this time around they want me to give back the second one


no it's like this, just press, just press that just press the lid ya, do you still want it, do you want it


oh ya it it really does nothing for me


haywire, no you don't press both you just press the top


just press the top and hold the bottom, to keep in place it's not that difficult, ya, sorry you were saying about your the earpieces


for what, !huh!, ya


what does that mean, so that that design nothing more, or before but is there a new one


, ya it's really it it looks nice because it's very geometric


I like it, but it's just that it's wire I really uh I have no use for it


ya exactly so it doesn't fit my needs, oh <mandarin>给给你的父母:gei gei ni de fu mu</mandarin> lah


do they need


that's because they don't have one, well ya but they're still gonna use it for listening to music


give <mandarin>阿嫲:a ma</mandarin> lah then she can play her candy crush then she listen to the music


they are not very cluttered you know it's functional or you don't you don't you shouldn't be withholding things from them just because you think that for their good is not functional, you can let them you can give them the option of keeping it see if they want it, because it is a useful thing it's not like they won't use it it's like they are they are more they are more modern than you give them credit for


end up being cluttered here, oh <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> [orh]


oh <mandarin>对对对:dui dui dui</mandarin> they need the lightning cable, it's so useless it's just a lightning cable so you have to be you have to have a iphone and a new a recent model iphone but all the people with recent model iphones are young people who just prefer airpods over ya it's so it's so non functional and they don't even have the target group the target audience


settled uh figured out


why you looking at my perfumes, but I'm bringing my perfumes


ya, okay tell me tell me something about you, something


what chiropractice


, chiropractice is it chiropractice, is it okay I don't know okay cool ya the chiropractor does what, ~chitry


(mmhmm) can you face me, it's very strange talking to someone who's not facing you


about


nerves okay, ya, I know what <mandarin>五十:wu shi</mandarin> is


(mmhmm) I know what <mandarin>肩膀:jian bang</mandarin> means, ,


, , (mmhmm)


(mmhmm), (mmhmm), you should really go and call the physiotherapist, ya but you might as well go and see what they can offer you yes but you don't know what exercises will be good for you


no but you don't know whether some of them are detrimental to you, some things you not meant to do either


ya just go, just go, like I I just got my insoles I feel so much better, I'm not wearing them now I mean like in my shoes


(hmm), ya


(mmhmm), ya, ya


oh are you talking about your foot or the sole of the okay okay, ya


a what okay, (mmhmm), what hole


okay, so the so you are saying that the hole there was a hole in your sole (uh huh) oh so he style the new piece completely is it


ya ya, ya ya ya (uh huh)


ah so that it's it's flat okay, can I look at your hands


wait give me your other hand, can you can you do this


okay, I was looking because your muscles looked a bit like, looked a bit like there are no, muscles in the back of your hand


okay, ya cobbler ya


(mmhmm)


ya, like super group


because he was doing the other shoes first , why don't he just


do the first shoe while waiting for the next shoes to dry, oh okay oh but it still took time lah before like it shoe


, how much his rental, oh okay


okay lah so he earns quite a fair bit,


you don't have to explain things to me in a different language


, ya


(mmhmm), ya the sole split open ah


uh when I went to the podiatrist today I got you know how they they measured like the, they basically like, (ppc) photocopied my feet like made me stand on this thing ya I cycled there so I they when when I did the assessment they


they did like a flag uh so called photocopy of my feet lah so to see like where I put pressure on like the the the length and the width of my feet and then like they were like tell me like oh your right foot is like how many CM and then your left foot is how many CM


so no not uh, I mean they got the size through


the length my feet so first they'll get like oh you're the length of your feet, then they'll say like oh because the length of your feet is like this much you are probably a size thirty eight, but I'm not usually I'm a thirty seven point five which is I guess maybe like thirty eight like because my foot expanded a bit


ya (mmhmm)


ya but mine are fine apparently she measured she says my my my left my leg length there's no discrepancy,


ya like maybe muscle imbalances so I know err, ya because my arch is collapsing but for some reason my right foot I tend to compensate more that's why it hurts more


I don't wear heels it's because I have hyper my ligaments are very weak I have very hyperextendable ligaments, it's genetic I I'm from mummy's family


like you look at her feet you look at <mandarin>婆婆:po po</mandarin> feet they all look like mine, so it's like basically all my ligaments very hyper mobile that's why like when I walk right my my arch is collapsing and when the arch collapses right then you get pressure you the pressure it's


brought into the front of your foot instead and then that's why like you get when you press like there's more pressure onto this metatarsophalangeal joint, over here, ya


ya and then I went to the podiatrist and then they said this and then they give me the, exactly it's a foot brace it's a insole exactly exactly and then you wear it with all your shoes you put it into every shoe you wear


plus you're not really on your feet at home that much


<mandarin>这里这里很酸:zhe li zhe li hen suan</mandarin> then <mandarin>这里很酸:zhe li hen suan</mandarin> then <mandarin>这里也酸:zhe li ye suan</mandarin> then <mandarin>这里痛:zhe li tong</mandarin> , I just collected it today, that's why I that's why I went out today that's the two thousand dollar thing


no no the the the brace itself was only three hundred but then the assessment was uh thousand two, and then you paid for the I paid for the consultation also


I mean you can't put them into like high heels and stuff lah but like normal stuff the one, no it's and insole not a brace an insole


so it's basically an insole that's shaped to my feet


oh okay it's less braces more retainers, ya it's like retainers ya, so it stops my arch from collapsing when I walk because it's like molds completely to my foot


ya, ya ya exactly, because right now my bunion is really very minor it's only ten degrees like when I did the X ray then they say it's like very minor bunion but I think because I I of I'm more active than most people


like I am I'm always standing then I I spin quite a lot I I walk a lot also


ya, the the ladies there my my podiatrist said that, at the start , if they wear for too long


because you do need to like get used to it, prosthesis


no it's more like when your shoes don't fit well and then you put something inside your shoes so that it fits your foot better, so at least I got that fixed, eh, yes yes


I didn't I didn't even use that I I brought it back for nothing, ya I'm going to bring the camera back I think it's a bit spoilt so I have to go back to the shop and ask them to give me some help, because that's not a cheap camera it's like seventy pounds


ya, a lot of stuff I brought back I didn't use it at least I used my #sous vide# cooker, then, I didn't bring that many clothes leh


but I brought I bought a fair bit of clothes this time, so I will bring it back, he might his no the no I told you our suitcase problem is about not about the weight


it's about the size and his suitcase is huge, so I'll just put some stuff in his I assume, ya he has the he has the scale thing the


you know the one you lift up then you, I mean that one is easier though, ya, ya


ya no no I have enough space it's just the weight, ya okay, okay congratulations so generous


ya ya should be why not, ya, okay let's let's try, should we stop now


uh, why why no the video doesn't tell you the the


what to do it just tells you like the, the content of your conversation, no I think they didn't say anything about okay I think we can just


stop at the same time, okay let me know okay you you you count

what you mean the new place,


but it's the same, estate mah if you look at it, ah


you are just moving to next block then why aren't they budging on


the rent ah, and the other block gave you a better,


I mean you could have, the original the current one, you renew for one more year at a lower rate


you mean they for from the landlord point of view they cannot, reduce their yearly, so the new one that you are going into it's brand new


if not why are they giving you lower, yes so same thing mah


your your current place you are moving out so they ought to counter offer you mah, then don't but anyway move to a new place is fine ah


so how much differential !huh! reduction, which is the same as currently what you are paying

okay ah oh okay


seven minutes


westfield is here ah


, then what is this international quarter


, all this can't can't predict one


alice alice way


, they they will play in four, german city


because they this is what they call they have uh barbers set up ah, so all the teams will be there, they don't move around so they will be quarantine in that city so called, I I can't I I don't know but I know is four german city


so from, quarter finals onward, they don't play home away anymore, they all play at neutral location, so it's away away but you only play one game knockout game already so no longer


all the no it's not round robin home and away you play, me and you play two matches you play and ya so now they don't do it anymore both of us go to a neutral location and we'll play one march


whoever win go to semi final, then last time semi final I think, used to be home and away also then grand final is just one single, match


ya I think, because quarter final total eight teams only mah eight team no no no eight teams


four matches what, so they before city uh so, quarter final one match of course that match is two teams mah no no no


you because, the original plan all this while champions league ah, round of sixteen, round of sixteen that means sixteen teams sixteen teams eliminate become eight teams mah eight teams called quarter final mah so now the quarter final


total eight teams, four location, oh okay the sixteen because the sixteen some of them had already played


one match some of the the match already played halfway ya so suspended so they need to complete the, the away or the home match so all these decided like yesterday


yesterday man city won mah two one against, real madrid, so that one decided, so now man city confirm go into next round which is quarter final so all these decided already so the quarter final will have four matches


previously quarter final used to be eight matches your home and away, so that it's all decided same thing as the europa league, so that is settled already, I don't know which are the four german city ah but


I'm sure once you search you can be there ah, !huh!, can you you will record more clearer mah


it's because there's another microphone, as feedback, I don't know, but it's okay


we are we are at twenty two minutes


eleven PM


so when, ya ya ya


, so, eh no


then it could be twenty three uh no I didn't just <mandarin>说实话 哦 不过 为:shuo shi hua o bu guo wei</mandarin> then I'll just put everything in life


but how come, this trip one only eh


okay I'm checking, the weight allowance


, ya you say you want to show me


ya ya ya


I think even this shirt, is uniqlo what


, that's a jeans <mandarin>的:de</mandarin> meh, trousers ah


actually


ah okay ah quickly ah, but they are quite fast ah


do line


you go to eunos MRT you just take a, okay lah


but your, your alteration is only how many pieces, ah then you walk there lah, eh maybe can ask mummy join in the conversation hor


then she can talk uh I think will disrupt ah because this recording is one person, ya, their instruction not clear leh or you mean they not ya


so they will, synthesise my, speech pattern, hor, then if I talk funny


they cannot what I'm saying, speak in, chinese speak in english


I am sure they will just feed it into a, AI programme, ya, but siri can understand us what


siri can understand me also leh, oh not siri the your what your ah, I thought you set up with your recording no


you got to tell them, first mah, first mah


so I, so that's why I got curious, curious mah


then I can tell that google to stop one eh


then sometimes mummy say hi google, play some music then <mandarin>你这边也会:ni zhe bian ye hui</mandarin> play leh


so, yours can also, recognise my voice leh, , , not no it's not you then it shouldn't respond to the command ah


I don't know what they are going to use with this, speech recognition ah


NUS, oh, but if it's (ppc) if it's AI the more simple


it will be better ah


ya, actually just now before reading the insturction , I was thinking eh


oh <mandarin>对:dui</mandarin> hor no lah they uh okay I was I was thinking since there will be so many of us <mandarin>阿公阿嫲:a gong a ma</mandarin> will uh fulfill the ten to fifteen percent


ten to fifty percent mother tongue, ah because <mandarin>我知道知道那时还没有看到那个:wo zhi dao zhi dao na shi hai mei you kan dao na ge</mandarin> insturction mah, I think they will


that's why they wanted two recording eh, eh but my recording will have your voice also,


so when you send in I suppose, you will have to send in both together so they know, this is the, conversation partner


you can do again mah


okay


different mother tongue mah


I I suppose so lah


ya lah, mother tongue, the


, okay so are you going to leave this earbud


it's a different cover but it's the same design old one is brighter


okay, , return then


this hor


ah, okay, , then which came, and they wanted it, oh <mandarin>那你你还你还买这个干嘛没有我知道:na ni ni hai ni hai mai zhe ge gan ma mei you wo zhi dao</mandarin> oh oh okay


but can never open what no meh, oh, !huh! no


it's like old model


, that, no you don't press pool or you just cross the Tao, I know I press the top


, anyway he's looking for other type of partner lah


for his business, he's into ear, earbud, earphone


uh, for the moment nothing more of it, that design is a old design and I don't know why my friend pass me that old design


anyway I think he has also moved beyond that, (ppc), that design that, packaging,


ya ya ya and but because I mean he's he's a, his explanation was it was for different target group lah


I didn't know mah I thought


and this one got got measure this one is just that to them they will not going to use it for the what is stated leh, no I don't like to I don't like to


give them things that, then it just adds to their clutter, they are not cluttered I know


but I don't know why they you they gave that set, for us as, testing for testing


tell me something about you uh


about straightening spine uh, through stretching uh ah, chiropractor uh


chiropractice uh,


how to stretch, and, stretch your muscle ah


nerves system, will be open up, then <mandarin>他他华文的有一个是五十肩五十:ta ta hua wen de you yi ge shi wu shi jian wu shi</mandarin> is fifty


so it's <mandarin>五十肩:wu shi jian</mandarin> means , someone with uh, fifty shoulder, age fifty years old type of shoulder condition lah, hence cannot raise up lah


then some will raise up but, one can stretch one cannot stretch lor, and how you do lor, so simple one like, overhead stretch


and then, then the others you, thigh on the floor, and you roll lah, I think they do exactly the same thing the because I also saw the


so I will do the default one lah I'll do the five set, and do all, now it's just generic mah just stretch mah


because I walk then the we call that the sole ah the outer sole


I I show you ah wait ah ah later, you know the the back part, because, this is uh the back part ah because when I walk ah then there is a angle


the sole the sole of the shoe, so let's say my right leg so this part ah, so if you just put one flat one up because there will still be


a curvature, a a curvature ah, so you you actually paste this first ah then you put a new piece up, so he covered that hole, I said !wah! premium, on the sole lor on the foot


it's not a hole lah because <mandarin>你摩吗你走的时候他们摩摩摩摩成一个:ni mo ma ni zou de shi hou ta men mo mo mo mo cheng yi ge</mandarin> angle


he he if you just put one piece there because there is the curvature up mah, as in, because of my walking mah so there's this slope up ah, but if you just put one flat, new piece up there then this <NEN> is still not flat ah not covered ah so he actually cover it first


he cover it then he slice it, flush it ah so it it it it become flat again, so this part he put in something to flush then he put a whole new flat piece of sole so you actually see one layer


okay ah <mandarin>没事:mei shi</mandarin> ah,


the uncle was at, chinatown


cobbler ah is it called cobbler, I I was with him for, two hours, because there are I think


five pairs of shoe in front of me, then he said, he will put a layer of those sticky rubber ah, and the sticky rubber it has to dry first leh


it has to he apply on both sides, and both sides must be dry, then you can stick together, ya


but I waited two hours, ya ya ya then I chatted with him lah two hours


so he while he was doing there are a lot of uh, what you call that, replacement sole being prepared, all are waiting all are waiting it still took time then I then I ask him


one day because he charged me twenty dollars mah, everybody else was before me was also like paying twenty dollars


I don't, he has got no need rental one uh just by the roads by the side outside


chinatown MRT once you come out OG, I mean he's quite okay lah, I think and and he say he has the best, business there


look it's looking is easy lah

eh <mandarin>不过我听说:bu guo wo ting shuo</mandarin> hor those uh safe distance officer hor <mandarin>他们的:ta men de</mandarin> pay not bad sia, one month can earn about two thousand three thousand leh almost equal to [orh] <mandarin>一个月的一个月:yi ge yue de yi ge yue</mandarin> full time <mandarin>的薪水:de xin shui</mandarin> eh


ya lah then !aiya! sometime [orh] don't know what the government think also lah they got money to give people [orh] to go and buy a playstation right I saw [orh] a lot of people [orh], they they go and take the government money the government payout right seven hundred right then next day go and buy playstation already leh


this kind of money [orh] government <mandarin>舍得给:she de gei</mandarin> eh but hor, come to the, but, sorry sorry oh my god <mandarin>我突然间想不起来要讲我我不知道要讲我:wo tu ran jian xiang bu qi lai yao jiang wo wo bu zhi dao yao jiang wo</mandarin> shit

I think ah waste money sia, the government ah, already spend so many money ah just to actually give out the citizen already eh then [orh] now [orh]


COVID nineteen [orh] still so serious eh then <mandarin>现在讲要:xian zai jiang yao</mandarin> hold NDP eh


true lah !aiya! I think sometimes you don't know what the government thing also lah


because to them fighter jet is, important than everything


ya I also heard about their leh


but hor for that part [orh] I really have to agree sia, because hor if you look around ah, actually yesterday right I went to a hospital [orh], then [orh] all the nurse ah that serve me ah are all foreign workers sia all from like malaysia lah china lah


myanmar lah, I don't even see any single local eh


actually regarding that part right I also agree lah because, if local willing to work right then you know the the company also don't have to help them pay for levy all these thing


then err is also help to boost up the job right because apparently <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> period COVID nineteen a lot of people no job jobless, ya lah I think this is something that the government can do ah


oh I tell you this <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> ever try <mandarin>这个:zhe ge</mandarin> restaurant called must share right their rosti is damn Shiok especially pairing with the sour cream


ya to be honest is that last time I also try their fried rice right uh sorry Bak rice I try their Bak rice then I think it's like, super shocked then some more the restaurant is not very Atas five dollar sit inside aircon room and eat not bad what


japanese restaurant oh japanese restaurant I like the Ajisen Ramen


ya I think the Ramen there is really not bad especially the !wah! that one is really shock sia


really really ah what is this green tea cola thing


seriously but my friend told me that Genki sushi is a very Atas restaurant leh everything are so expensive then the food also like so so only


I think you previously the one that you mention ah the green tea cola ah, already make me feel like want


make me feel like have diarrhea already sia


can can can maybe next time <mandarin>我:wo</mandarin> Jio <mandarin>我的:wo de</mandarin> friend ah go go there and try the so called green tea cola thingy


korean food ah korean food, korean food so far I only try, err what is that call #chin chin# ah, C H I R C H I R ah the one that specialise selling the korean fried chicken one


I think not bad lah compare to the chinese style of fried chicken theirs is that a bit more taste lah


illegal gathering ah later Kena caught sia, but !aiya! right now the government also like err, no time to care lah because everyday cases so much mah


they also Bo Pian lah, oh talk about the worst restaurant ah I think err A one and together with the


original uh fried #bee hoon# at the Sembawang one lah, are the worst I ever saw before sia, the food are just overrating and expensiveness as well


oh ya I about eighteen chef eh but I remember last I go to the eighteen chef which is located at orchard ah, I almost queue for two hours leh then end up [orh] I eat the what is that call I think Laksa spaghetti


oh my god that is like a weird combination that I ever eat before sia


Sakae sushi, uh Sakae sushi I like their salmon I think their salmon is quite fresh


delifrance ah I never, ever try delifrance bread before eh how is it taste like ah


[orh]


Makisan err I don't know leh I also won't go to just because want to eat sushi then go and try Makisan ah the Makisan is really


ya I also don't like bubble tea sometime I also don't know why ah uh you remember uh, last month when there is a COVID nineteen then all the bubble tea shop have to forced to close down temporary right !wah! on the last day when the bubble tea show uh shop still open right a lot of people go and queue eh queue until like hor their entire life cannot see bubble tea at already


jack's place ah ya lor that one I agree lah then [orh] you know about bubble tea [orh] the most funny thing is that right on the last day before the bubble tea uh shop close down right


tim #ho wan# ah of course is hong-kong better lah singapore one they're just copy and paste only what eh but [orh] the tim #ho wan# I thought [orh] they wanted to exit from singapore market already they still around ah


!hey! rowena what do you think about Haidilao service ah


but I heard that uh Haidilao they got provide this free uh


there got provide this free nail art service leh where you can actually do your nail over there while you're waiting for your turn to be served, so I think err for this part is already win the beauty in the pot already right


ya I guess this is why a lot of people like to go Haidilao and especially when you know sometime, err on your birthday or on those special occasion you can actually just let the staff there to know, then there will be they will prepare a little bit of for you maybe a small gift that kind of thing ya I think those are the reason that make people feel like oh I wanted to go back to this restaurant because


those small gesture thing that do it for me that kind of thing


ya I heard about this also <mandarin>哎:ai</mandarin> just wandering during these COVID nineteen is their business actually still as usual as previously lah I mean hopefully ah
