Two weeks ago I went for Marocay with my Chinese coach from Hin. One of the girls who's very cute. She never sings on town. Oh so to sing together with her is very challenging. Oh, is she child? Yeah. But she's very lovely, very active. Very emotional engagement. One thing is strange. So for the colleagues around me maybe about 25 to 30 years old. Most of my male colleagues are married. Some of them have spoken like one year old. And the the singles are all ladies. Like the lady who sits in front of me?

SPEAKER_03 7:16

Oh, so you remember the lady, but you don't remember what she brought to eat lunch?

SPEAKER_05 7:21

SPEAKER_00 7:40

I don't know.

SPEAKER_05 7:43

Anyway, so the lady sitting in front of you during the creature dinner, she's also signaled the ladies who ask if you if you can play tennis together. She's also signal. The lady who likes her mother's dish. Was it her mother's or was it hers? Oh, so you remember the dish? No, no, I had dinner with her last week and then she was talking about uh this month her mother is here, or last month, whatever. Her mother is here for three months and then she's cooking food, but that's why she's bringing dinner from home, uh lunch from home. Normally she's buying lunch in the canton.

SPEAKER_03 8:26

Anything but remembering the dish at the Squernada, sir.

SPEAKER_05 8:38

We had a chance to arrive at 7.50, but we did red light.

SPEAKER_03 8:44

SPEAKER_05 8:55

51. What is your first uh uh so we have uh this Chinese New Year cart event in PNG the last week of February, not next week, last the week following. So we were asked to wear traditional Chinese uh dresses, right? And uh I ordered the uh red nail, right, short nail. I can put it on me. It's my first time putting a nail on me. You should help me. Really? Oh yeah, sure. Don't touch the thing because you should touch them. Yeah, and also a pair of red uh on your blinker.

SPEAKER_03 9:38

Yes, very shit. Uh you shall show me the tar outfit.

SPEAKER_05 9:45

I think I decided to wear your Chinese uh dress uh the Chinese you were wearing when we were in Singapore made a very beautiful Chinese dress? That seems a bit rude. Why? Give it to me if you don't want it. I don't remember that, so it didn't happen. Are you still blinking?

SPEAKER_03 10:09

Um, if it's Valentine's Day I'm going to Ivy's house or a Valentine's Day party. And if it's not Valentine's Day this weekend, I have no plan. You don't have uh game this weekend? No. I hope.

SPEAKER_05 10:45

No, I do. What? Which day? I don't. Oh you don't. What a good question. I thought you said no I do. Not it'd be yes I do.

SPEAKER_03 10:59

SPEAKER_00 15:54

SPEAKER_03 15:56

Wait. I don't know.

SPEAKER_00 15:58

Leah, you have like three ABBA songs. I didn't steal those on you.

SPEAKER_03 16:02

Yes, I did.

SPEAKER_00 16:03

You stole this song from me.

SPEAKER_03 16:05

No, I didn't. No. See?

unknown 16:16

What?

SPEAKER_03 16:17

He didn't blink, don't you?

SPEAKER_05 16:31

You know if I ask a guy to play some of your dental uh part if he will feel uncomfortable. But if you have put everything on me, you asked him. I didn't. So how is it now?

SPEAKER_03 16:43

You want him to ask him?

SPEAKER_00 16:45

I mean, if you feel the need to ask him, you know, he will get to 10,000 after selling all the dogs.

SPEAKER_05 16:58

10,000? Yeah, one dog is about 2,000 or 5 dogs. Yeah. And then I'm 100% sure he already has a plan how to spend all this money very quickly and it would be gone again, so. But we don't want that to happen as well. He's not doing savings. He just I don't know. And then if something short, it'll make a savings. Saving for the time. Yes, sir. Saving for the time. He cannot even come to me and say, hey, I've shot the money, give me some. Saving for this. That's all. Do you think that's independent?

SPEAKER_03 17:42

Me, for example, right now I'm not. Then tell him that. Why are you telling me? I'm not gonna pay the tax money for him. What do you want?

SPEAKER_05 17:55

Nothing.

SPEAKER_03 17:56

Yeah.

unknown 17:57
