English speaking course. 00:00
Wake up. 00:03
It's already 6:00 a.m. Wake up, Alex. 00:10
Sleepy head. 00:14
>> Is it? Uh, feels like I just closed my 00:16
eyes. 00:19
Just five more minutes. 00:21
>> Every time. 00:24
Come on. We plan to jog before 00:26
breakfast. remember? 00:28
>> Oh, that's right. That morning exercise 00:31
thing. 00:34
It's still dark out. 00:36
>> It's the perfect time to jog. 00:39
Fresh air, peaceful streets. You'll feel 00:42
so refreshed. 00:45
>> Okay. Okay, you win. 00:49
Let me grab my shoes. 00:53
>> That's the spirit. And guess what? I'll 00:55
make us a nice breakfast when we're 00:58
back. 01:00
>> Deal. 01:01
But if I'm exhausted afterward, you're 01:02
giving me a hearty meal. 01:05
>> It's a promise. Let's get this day 01:08
started, right? 01:10
>> You've got a lot of energy for someone 01:12
who's just woken up. All right, let's 01:14
go. 01:17
Exercise. 01:23
You know, this morning jog feels great. 01:30
Let's do some stretches, too. 01:32
>> Stretches here in the park. 01:35
>> Why not? I saw a group exercising here 01:38
last week. It looked fun. 01:40
>> Well, I've never really done group 01:43
exercises before. 01:45
>> There's always a first time. 01:47
Look, there's Ryan. He always knows good 01:50
exercises. 01:53
Hey Ryan, 01:55
mind if we join you for some exercise 01:57
routines? 01:59
>> The more the merrier. 02:01
We're about to start some simple core 02:04
workouts, perfect for beginners. 02:06
>> Sounds great. Let's get started. 02:10
>> With both of you here, this is going to 02:13
be even more fun. 02:15
Let's make this a routine. 02:18
Morning jog and exercises with friends. 02:20
Absolutely. 02:24
I've always believed working out with 02:26
friends motivates you more. 02:28
>> Agreed. 02:31
So, what exercises do we have for today, 02:33
Ryan? 02:36
We're going to start with some planks 02:38
and squats. 02:40
Then we'll move to some light cardio. 02:42
>> Sounds like a plan. I'm ready to get my 02:45
sweat on. 02:47
Prepare the breakfast. 02:53
So tired. 03:00
>> Remember to make breakfast as promised. 03:03
>> Okay. Okay. 03:06
>> Let me help you. 03:08
>> How about scrambled eggs and toast? 03:10
Sounds good. 03:13
>> Delicious. 03:14
Maybe we can add mushrooms and spinach 03:17
to the eggs. 03:19
Great idea. 03:21
>> Check the fridge. I think we might have 03:23
some. 03:25
>> Found them. Also, there are some ripe 03:27
tomatoes. How about adding those? 03:29
>> Perfect. 03:33
You handle the toast and I'll whip up 03:35
the eggs. 03:37
Deal. And for drinks, coffee or orange 03:39
juice? 03:42
>> Coffee. Definitely. Can't start my day 03:44
without it. 03:46
Same here. I'll get the coffee machine 03:48
started. 03:50
By the way, where's the milk? It should 03:52
be in the fridge. 03:55
How about adding some cheese to the 03:57
eggs? 03:59
>> Cheesy scrambled eggs. I'm in. Let's 04:01
make breakfast amazing today. I saw some 04:04
strawberries earlier. Maybe a small 04:08
fruit salad on the side. Sounds perfect. 04:10
With both of us working together, 04:14
breakfast will be fantastic. 04:16
Go to the office. 04:23
Uh, I can't find my left shoe. 04:29
I swear it was right here last night. 04:33
You mean this one? It was under the 04:36
couch. 04:38
Bella must have played with it. That 04:40
cat. Thanks, Alex. 04:43
Oh, no. I forgot to charge my phone. 04:47
>> No worries. Take my power bank. Just 04:51
don't lose it. It's a new one. 04:54
>> Promise I won't. 04:57
>> Oh, shoot. We missed our usual bus. 05:03
>> Well, we could take the train. 05:07
It's a bit longer, but at least we'd be 05:09
moving. 05:12
>> That's a good plan. It's been ages since 05:13
we took the train. 05:16
Might be a nice change. 05:18
>> Oh, speaking of change, I think the 05:20
office moved our desks while we were 05:23
away. Said something about better 05:25
lighting or improving work environment. 05:28
What? I had everything perfectly 05:31
organized. 05:34
Well, at least we get better lighting. I 05:36
was tired of that flickering overhead 05:39
bulb. 05:41
>> Always trying to find the silver lining, 05:42
aren't you? But yeah, better lighting is 05:44
a plus. 05:48
Remember when you tried to replace the 05:50
bulb yourself and set off the fire 05:52
alarm? 05:54
>> Haha, let's not bring up that 05:55
embarrassing moment. At least I tried. 05:57
>> Indeed, you did. 06:01
Let's hope our day at the office goes 06:04
smoothly after this slightly chaotic 06:05
morning. 06:08
making complaints. 06:13
Samantha, have you used the new printing 06:20
machine on the third floor? Yes, I did 06:22
tried printing a report this morning. 06:26
Why do you ask? 06:29
I've been struggling with it all day. 06:31
It keeps jamming and the colors are off. 06:34
I thought it might just be me not 06:38
understanding the instructions. 06:40
No, it's not just you. The instructions 06:43
aren't clear at all. And did you notice 06:46
the weird noise it makes? 06:49
>> Yes. It sounds like it's going to break 06:51
any minute. 06:53
I was thinking of making a complaint to 06:55
the IT department. We can't keep dealing 06:57
with these issues. 07:00
Absolutely. 07:02
I was speaking to Mark and Tina earlier 07:04
and they've had similar issues, too. We 07:06
should collectively raise this 07:10
I think so too. Maybe we should have a 07:12
small meeting with everyone who's faced 07:16
problems and document all of the issues 07:17
before taking it to it. 07:20
That's a good plan. If we list out all 07:23
the issues, it can't ignore it and we 07:26
might get a better, more efficient 07:29
machine. 07:31
Chat with friends. 07:37
Jenny, Alex, it's been too long. 07:44
How have you both been? 07:49
Hey, Taylor. We've been doing well. Just 07:51
the usual work and home routine. 07:54
Same here. Work has been quite busy 07:57
lately, especially with all the new 08:00
projects coming in. 08:02
By the way, Jenny, I tried that pasta 08:04
recipe you posted last week. It was 08:07
amazing. 08:09
Really? That's great to hear. Alex loved 08:11
it, too. 08:14
I'm trying to experiment with some more 08:16
international dishes lately. 08:18
>> Speaking of international dishes, 08:20
have you tried that new Thai place 08:23
downtown? 08:26
Their food is fantastic. 08:27
>> Not yet, but I've heard so much about 08:31
it. Let's plan a day and go together. 08:33
Sounds like a plan. Jenny and I have 08:37
been looking for new places to try out. 08:40
>> Great. We should catch up more often. 08:44
It's always so much fun chatting with 08:47
you both. 08:49
Absolutely. We've missed these little 08:51
hangouts. 08:53
Let's make it a point to meet more 08:55
often. 08:56
Deal. Now, have you both heard about the 08:58
latest movie that just came out? 09:01
We should definitely go watch it 09:04
together. 09:05
Skin care. 09:12
>> Jenny. OMG. Jenny. 09:18
>> This is an emergency. A huge emergency. 09:21
Lisa, what happened? 09:25
Did you lose the presentation files? Is 09:28
the office on fire? 09:30
Worse. Way worse. There's this this 09:33
thing on my forehead. 09:37
It's enormous. 09:40
I look like a unicorn, Jenny. 09:42
Uh, unicorn? 09:46
What are you talking about, Lisa? 09:48
This pimple, Jenny. A massive 09:52
mountainlike pimple. 09:54
I can't present looking like this. What 09:57
will everyone think? 10:00
Oh, is that all? 10:02
Lisa, take a deep breath. It's just a 10:05
pimple. I thought something really 10:08
serious happened. The way you were 10:11
panicking. 10:12
Just a pimple, Jenny. This thing could 10:14
have its own zip code. 10:18
What do I do? 10:20
Lisa, trust me, it's not as noticeable 10:22
as you think. 10:25
Clean the area. Maybe apply some tea 10:27
tree oil and remember to stay relaxed. 10:30
Stress only makes it worse. 10:34
And seriously, people will focus on your 10:37
presentation, not a minor imperfection 10:39
on your face. 10:42
Watching film. 10:48
Jenny, have you watched The Timeless 10:54
Voyage? 10:57
I've heard it's an amazing romantic 10:58
drama. 11:01
>> No, I haven't. My co-workers said it's a 11:02
tearjerker. They cried a river watching 11:06
it. 11:08
>> Oh, you know I'm a sucker for those 11:10
kinds of movies. 11:12
Let's watch it tonight. I'll get the 11:14
popcorn ready. 11:17
>> Sounds like a plan. 11:19
But let me warn you, if you cry, I'm 11:21
taking a photo as evidence. 11:23
Challenge accepted. 11:26
And if you cry first, I get to choose 11:29
the next movie we watch. 11:32
>> Deal. 11:35
And by the way, I've got that new 11:36
chocolate ice cream in the freezer. 11:38
Perfect for movie night, don't you 11:41
think? 11:43
>> You really know how to sweeten the deal, 11:44
Jenny. 11:46
I'm so looking forward to tonight. 11:48
>> Same here. 11:51
Okay, I'll get the blankets and you set 11:53
up the film. 11:55
Let's make this a memorable movie night. 11:56
>> Deal. 12:00
And if the film is too sad, we can 12:01
always switch to that comedy you've been 12:03
wanting to watch. We have the whole 12:05
night. 12:08
>> Sounds perfect. Movie nights with you 12:09
are always the best. 12:12
Go to sleep. 12:18
Wow. Today felt like such a long day. 12:25
>> The meeting today drained me. 12:28
>> Well, at least we have this comfy bed to 12:31
rest in. 12:33
I can't wait to dive into it. 12:35
>> True. But before that, did you brush 12:38
your teeth and wash your face? 12:41
>> Of course. Mom's skincare routine 12:44
teachings never leave me. But I forgot 12:46
to set the alarm for tomorrow. Can you 12:50
do that, please? 12:52
>> Sure thing. 12:53
What time do you need to be up? 12:55
>> Around 7 a.m. I have that early meeting 12:58
with Lisa from HR. 13:01
>> Got it. Alarm set for 7 a.m. and I'll 13:03
set mine for 7:05 a.m. just in case the 13:08
first one doesn't wake you up. 13:11
>> Thanks, Alex. You always have my back. 13:13
>> Always. 13:16
Now, turn off the lights. Let's get some 13:18
shutye. 13:20
>> Good night, Alex. Sweet dreams. 13:22
Good night, Jenny. See you in the 13:25
morning. 13:27
Nightmare. 13:33
>> Oh my god, that was that was terrifying. 13:38
>> Jenny. Jenny, are you okay? 13:44
What happened? 13:47
>> I had this awful nightmare, Alex. I was 13:49
trapped in a dark maze and no matter 13:52
which way I turned, I couldn't find a 13:55
way out. 13:57
It felt so real. 13:58
>> Oh, honey, it's just a dream. 14:01
Everything's fine. I'm here with you. 14:04
>> I know, but it felt so vivid. 14:08
Like there were these shadows and they 14:12
were chasing me. And then I heard this 14:14
eerie whisper saying I'd never escape. 14:16
Nightmares can be pretty unsettling, 14:20
but remember, it's just your 14:24
subconscious mind playing tricks. 14:26
Maybe there's some stress or unresolved 14:29
issues that you've been thinking about. 14:31
Maybe work has been a bit overwhelming 14:34
lately. 14:37
And with our anniversary coming up, I 14:38
want everything to be perfect. 14:40
>> Don't worry too much. We'll make it 14:43
special no matter what. 14:46
And if you ever have another nightmare, 14:48
just wake me up. I'm here for you. 14:50
>> Thanks, Alex. Just talking about it 14:54
makes me feel better. Let's try to get 14:56
some sleep. 14:58
>> Of course. Good night, Jenny. No more 14:59
nightmares. Okay, 15:02
>> meeting room. 15:09
Hey, Chloe. Did you reserve the meeting 15:15
room for our 300 p.m. presentation? 15:18
>> Oh, no. I thought you were taking care 15:21
of it. Let me quickly check if it's 15:24
available. 15:27
>> Please do. It's crucial we have that 15:28
room. Especially with the tech setup we 15:31
need. 15:34
>> The system shows it's free. I'll reserve 15:35
it now. 15:38
Woo! We dodged a bullet there. 15:40
>> Thanks, Chloe. And did you get the 15:43
presentation slides from Mark? 15:46
>> I did, but there were a few edits. 15:49
I'll finalize them on the way to the 15:52
meeting room. 15:54
>> Oh, Chloe, before I forget, do you have 15:56
the remote for the projector? 15:59
>> It's in my drawer. I'll grab it before 16:02
we go. By the way, did you talk to Sarah 16:04
about joining us for the meeting? 16:08
>> Yes, she said she'll be there. She had 16:11
some feedback after reviewing the draft. 16:14
>> Great. It's always good to have another 16:17
perspective. 16:20
Let's make this presentation the best 16:21
one yet. 16:23
>> Totally agree. 16:25
Oh, and Chloe, I was thinking we should 16:27
bring some snacks and drinks for the 16:29
team. 16:31
It's a long presentation and it'll keep 16:32
everyone energized. 16:35
>> That's thoughtful of you, Alex. I'll 16:37
grab some from the cafeteria. 16:39
Let's give our team the best experience. 16:42
>> With you leading, I have no doubts. 16:46
See you in the meeting room. 16:49
>> What do we eat for lunch today? 16:56
Hey everyone, I'm craving fast food for 17:03
lunch today. Any recommendations? 17:05
>> How about that new burger place down the 17:09
street? I've heard their fries are 17:11
legendary. 17:14
>> I'm in the mood for some tacos. 17:16
There's that Mexican fast food joint 17:19
nearby. 17:21
Oh, I've been there. Their burritos are 17:23
massive and super tasty. 17:25
If we're talking fast food, I've been 17:28
wanting to try the fried chicken from 17:30
Chicky Delight. 17:32
It's just around the corner. I'm torn 17:34
now. Everything sounds so good. 17:37
But maybe we could get a mix. Some 17:41
burgers, tacos, and fried chicken. 17:44
That's a brilliant idea. 17:47
We can have a mini feast right at the 17:50
office. 17:52
Count me in. I'll handle the burgers. 17:54
Jenny, do you want to grab the tacos and 17:57
Kevin can get the chicken? 17:59
>> Sounds like a plan. Let's meet back here 18:01
in 30 minutes. Lunch is going to be 18:03
amazing today. 18:07
Wow, look at this spread. I think we 18:12
might have gone a bit overboard. 18:14
No such thing as too much food. 18:17
Let's dive in. 18:20
This burger is so juicy and the sauce is 18:23
amazing. 18:26
I'm loving these tacos. 18:27
The filling is so fresh. 18:30
Brian, you chose well. 18:33
And this chicken. Oh my goodness. It's 18:36
crispy on the outside and tender inside. 18:40
Perfect choice, Kevin. 18:44
Thanks. I've been a fan of Chicky 18:46
Delight for a while. 18:49
Their secret seasoning is just something 18:51
else. 18:54
We should definitely do this more often. 18:55
Mixing different fast foods is such a 18:59
treat. 19:01
Absolutely. And maybe next time we can 19:03
add some pizzas and sandwiches to the 19:05
mix. Sounds like a plan. Cheers to more 19:07
fun lunches together. 19:12
>> Tea break. 19:19
Phew, these reports are taking forever. 19:25
Anyone up for a tea break? Count me in. 19:29
I've been eyeing the new tea flavors in 19:33
the pantry. 19:35
>> I heard the chamomile tea is really 19:37
soothing. 19:40
I could use some of that right now. 19:42
>> Chamomile is great, but have you tried 19:45
the ginger tea? It's got a real kick to 19:47
it. 19:50
>> Perfect for waking you up. 19:52
>> I haven't, but that sounds intriguing. 19:54
I'll have a cup of that. 19:58
>> Speaking of new flavors, there's also a 20:01
lemon tea in there. 20:03
Super refreshing and just the right 20:06
amount of tang. 20:08
>> Lemon tea. That's exactly what I need. 20:11
Something to perk me up for the rest of 20:14
the afternoon. 20:17
You know what would go great with that 20:19
tea? 20:21
Some of those biscuits from the bakery 20:22
across the street. 20:25
Should I grab some? 20:27
>> That's a brilliant idea, Ethan. Those 20:29
biscuits would be perfect right now. 20:32
I'll chip in for them. 20:35
>> Thanks, 20:38
All right, let me grab those and we can 20:40
all enjoy a proper tea break together. 20:42
shopping list. 20:50
Hi, Mom. I'm about to finish up at work. 20:56
I'll be home soon. 20:59
Oh, Jenny, before you come home, can you 21:01
stop by the supermarket? 21:04
We need a few things. 21:07
Of course, Mom. Do you have a list? 21:10
Yes. We need some vegetables, chicken, 21:13
bread, and milk. 21:17
Oh, and don't forget some fruit for your 21:20
dad. He loves those apples. 21:22
Got it. Vegetables, chicken, bread, 21:26
milk, and apples. 21:30
Anything else, Mom? 21:32
H Maybe grab some eggs and cheese. 21:34
And if they have any of those chocolate 21:39
chip cookies on sale, get a pack. 21:41
You know how much your brother loves 21:45
them. All right, eggs, cheese, and 21:46
possibly cookies. 21:50
I'll make sure to get everything. See 21:53
you in a bit. Thanks, dear. Be safe and 21:55
don't rush. 21:59
Remember to check the expiry dates, 22:01
especially on the milk and eggs. 22:04
All right, let's see. Vegetables first. 22:11
Oh, those tomatoes look fresh. I'll grab 22:15
a few. 22:18
There are the apples. 22:20
These red ones look delicious. 22:24
Now, where's the chicken section? 22:26
Perfect. They have organic chicken on 22:30
sale. Mom would love that. 22:33
Next. Bread and milk. 22:36
I always forget where they keep the 22:40
bread. 22:42
Ah, there it is. 22:43
And the milk. Let's check the date. 22:47
Okay, this one is fresh. Now for the 22:51
eggs. 22:55
Oh, hey, there's Sarah from HR. 22:57
Maybe I should say hi after grabbing the 23:01
cheese. 23:04
Cheese check. Eggs check. 23:06
Now, where are those cookies? 23:10
Ah, there they are. On sale, just like 23:14
mom said. Perfect. That should be 23:16
everything. 23:19
Time to head to the checkout. 23:21
Jenny, over here. 23:24
How's it going? Haven't seen you in 23:26
ages. 23:29
Hey, Sarah. I'm good. Just grabbing some 23:31
things for dinner. 23:33
It's been so long. We should catch up 23:35
soon. 23:38
Absolutely. Let's plan something. 23:40
Have a great evening and enjoy your 23:43
shopping. 23:45
Thanks, Sarah. You too. Take care. 23:47
Romantic date. 23:54
Hey, Jenny. You know what? 24:01
How about we go for a late night date? 24:04
Just the two of us. 24:07
>> Oh, Alex, that sounds lovely. 24:10
I could use a drink after today. 24:14
>> Great. Let's head to that cozy bar 24:17
downtown. 24:20
They have the best cocktails. 24:21
>> Sounds perfect. Let me just change real 24:24
quick. 24:27
>> Here we are. I love the ambiance of this 24:31
place. 24:34
It's always so calming. 24:35
>> Absolutely. 24:38
>> So, tell me, how was your day at the 24:41
company? 24:43
Anything interesting? 24:45
Oh, it was just the usual meetings, 24:47
paperwork. 24:50
But Sarah from HR and I had a fun chat 24:52
at the supermarket. 24:54
How about you? 24:56
Well, there's a new project coming up 24:58
and I might be leading it. 25:01
Exciting times ahead. 25:04
>> That's fantastic, Alex. I'm so proud of 25:06
you. 25:09
>> Cheers to that. 25:10

Lyrics & Translation

[English]
English speaking course.
Wake up.
It's already 6:00 a.m. Wake up, Alex.
Sleepy head.
>> Is it? Uh, feels like I just closed my
eyes.
Just five more minutes.
>> Every time.
Come on. We plan to jog before
breakfast. remember?
>> Oh, that's right. That morning exercise
thing.
It's still dark out.
>> It's the perfect time to jog.
Fresh air, peaceful streets. You'll feel
so refreshed.
>> Okay. Okay, you win.
Let me grab my shoes.
>> That's the spirit. And guess what? I'll
make us a nice breakfast when we're
back.
>> Deal.
But if I'm exhausted afterward, you're
giving me a hearty meal.
>> It's a promise. Let's get this day
started, right?
>> You've got a lot of energy for someone
who's just woken up. All right, let's
go.
Exercise.
You know, this morning jog feels great.
Let's do some stretches, too.
>> Stretches here in the park.
>> Why not? I saw a group exercising here
last week. It looked fun.
>> Well, I've never really done group
exercises before.
>> There's always a first time.
Look, there's Ryan. He always knows good
exercises.
Hey Ryan,
mind if we join you for some exercise
routines?
>> The more the merrier.
We're about to start some simple core
workouts, perfect for beginners.
>> Sounds great. Let's get started.
>> With both of you here, this is going to
be even more fun.
Let's make this a routine.
Morning jog and exercises with friends.
Absolutely.
I've always believed working out with
friends motivates you more.
>> Agreed.
So, what exercises do we have for today,
Ryan?
We're going to start with some planks
and squats.
Then we'll move to some light cardio.
>> Sounds like a plan. I'm ready to get my
sweat on.
Prepare the breakfast.
So tired.
>> Remember to make breakfast as promised.
>> Okay. Okay.
>> Let me help you.
>> How about scrambled eggs and toast?
Sounds good.
>> Delicious.
Maybe we can add mushrooms and spinach
to the eggs.
Great idea.
>> Check the fridge. I think we might have
some.
>> Found them. Also, there are some ripe
tomatoes. How about adding those?
>> Perfect.
You handle the toast and I'll whip up
the eggs.
Deal. And for drinks, coffee or orange
juice?
>> Coffee. Definitely. Can't start my day
without it.
Same here. I'll get the coffee machine
started.
By the way, where's the milk? It should
be in the fridge.
How about adding some cheese to the
eggs?
>> Cheesy scrambled eggs. I'm in. Let's
make breakfast amazing today. I saw some
strawberries earlier. Maybe a small
fruit salad on the side. Sounds perfect.
With both of us working together,
breakfast will be fantastic.
Go to the office.
Uh, I can't find my left shoe.
I swear it was right here last night.
You mean this one? It was under the
couch.
Bella must have played with it. That
cat. Thanks, Alex.
Oh, no. I forgot to charge my phone.
>> No worries. Take my power bank. Just
don't lose it. It's a new one.
>> Promise I won't.
>> Oh, shoot. We missed our usual bus.
>> Well, we could take the train.
It's a bit longer, but at least we'd be
moving.
>> That's a good plan. It's been ages since
we took the train.
Might be a nice change.
>> Oh, speaking of change, I think the
office moved our desks while we were
away. Said something about better
lighting or improving work environment.
What? I had everything perfectly
organized.
Well, at least we get better lighting. I
was tired of that flickering overhead
bulb.
>> Always trying to find the silver lining,
aren't you? But yeah, better lighting is
a plus.
Remember when you tried to replace the
bulb yourself and set off the fire
alarm?
>> Haha, let's not bring up that
embarrassing moment. At least I tried.
>> Indeed, you did.
Let's hope our day at the office goes
smoothly after this slightly chaotic
morning.
making complaints.
Samantha, have you used the new printing
machine on the third floor? Yes, I did
tried printing a report this morning.
Why do you ask?
I've been struggling with it all day.
It keeps jamming and the colors are off.
I thought it might just be me not
understanding the instructions.
No, it's not just you. The instructions
aren't clear at all. And did you notice
the weird noise it makes?
>> Yes. It sounds like it's going to break
any minute.
I was thinking of making a complaint to
the IT department. We can't keep dealing
with these issues.
Absolutely.
I was speaking to Mark and Tina earlier
and they've had similar issues, too. We
should collectively raise this
I think so too. Maybe we should have a
small meeting with everyone who's faced
problems and document all of the issues
before taking it to it.
That's a good plan. If we list out all
the issues, it can't ignore it and we
might get a better, more efficient
machine.
Chat with friends.
Jenny, Alex, it's been too long.
How have you both been?
Hey, Taylor. We've been doing well. Just
the usual work and home routine.
Same here. Work has been quite busy
lately, especially with all the new
projects coming in.
By the way, Jenny, I tried that pasta
recipe you posted last week. It was
amazing.
Really? That's great to hear. Alex loved
it, too.
I'm trying to experiment with some more
international dishes lately.
>> Speaking of international dishes,
have you tried that new Thai place
downtown?
Their food is fantastic.
>> Not yet, but I've heard so much about
it. Let's plan a day and go together.
Sounds like a plan. Jenny and I have
been looking for new places to try out.
>> Great. We should catch up more often.
It's always so much fun chatting with
you both.
Absolutely. We've missed these little
hangouts.
Let's make it a point to meet more
often.
Deal. Now, have you both heard about the
latest movie that just came out?
We should definitely go watch it
together.
Skin care.
>> Jenny. OMG. Jenny.
>> This is an emergency. A huge emergency.
Lisa, what happened?
Did you lose the presentation files? Is
the office on fire?
Worse. Way worse. There's this this
thing on my forehead.
It's enormous.
I look like a unicorn, Jenny.
Uh, unicorn?
What are you talking about, Lisa?
This pimple, Jenny. A massive
mountainlike pimple.
I can't present looking like this. What
will everyone think?
Oh, is that all?
Lisa, take a deep breath. It's just a
pimple. I thought something really
serious happened. The way you were
panicking.
Just a pimple, Jenny. This thing could
have its own zip code.
What do I do?
Lisa, trust me, it's not as noticeable
as you think.
Clean the area. Maybe apply some tea
tree oil and remember to stay relaxed.
Stress only makes it worse.
And seriously, people will focus on your
presentation, not a minor imperfection
on your face.
Watching film.
Jenny, have you watched The Timeless
Voyage?
I've heard it's an amazing romantic
drama.
>> No, I haven't. My co-workers said it's a
tearjerker. They cried a river watching
it.
>> Oh, you know I'm a sucker for those
kinds of movies.
Let's watch it tonight. I'll get the
popcorn ready.
>> Sounds like a plan.
But let me warn you, if you cry, I'm
taking a photo as evidence.
Challenge accepted.
And if you cry first, I get to choose
the next movie we watch.
>> Deal.
And by the way, I've got that new
chocolate ice cream in the freezer.
Perfect for movie night, don't you
think?
>> You really know how to sweeten the deal,
Jenny.
I'm so looking forward to tonight.
>> Same here.
Okay, I'll get the blankets and you set
up the film.
Let's make this a memorable movie night.
>> Deal.
And if the film is too sad, we can
always switch to that comedy you've been
wanting to watch. We have the whole
night.
>> Sounds perfect. Movie nights with you
are always the best.
Go to sleep.
Wow. Today felt like such a long day.
>> The meeting today drained me.
>> Well, at least we have this comfy bed to
rest in.
I can't wait to dive into it.
>> True. But before that, did you brush
your teeth and wash your face?
>> Of course. Mom's skincare routine
teachings never leave me. But I forgot
to set the alarm for tomorrow. Can you
do that, please?
>> Sure thing.
What time do you need to be up?
>> Around 7 a.m. I have that early meeting
with Lisa from HR.
>> Got it. Alarm set for 7 a.m. and I'll
set mine for 7:05 a.m. just in case the
first one doesn't wake you up.
>> Thanks, Alex. You always have my back.
>> Always.
Now, turn off the lights. Let's get some
shutye.
>> Good night, Alex. Sweet dreams.
Good night, Jenny. See you in the
morning.
Nightmare.
>> Oh my god, that was that was terrifying.
>> Jenny. Jenny, are you okay?
What happened?
>> I had this awful nightmare, Alex. I was
trapped in a dark maze and no matter
which way I turned, I couldn't find a
way out.
It felt so real.
>> Oh, honey, it's just a dream.
Everything's fine. I'm here with you.
>> I know, but it felt so vivid.
Like there were these shadows and they
were chasing me. And then I heard this
eerie whisper saying I'd never escape.
Nightmares can be pretty unsettling,
but remember, it's just your
subconscious mind playing tricks.
Maybe there's some stress or unresolved
issues that you've been thinking about.
Maybe work has been a bit overwhelming
lately.
And with our anniversary coming up, I
want everything to be perfect.
>> Don't worry too much. We'll make it
special no matter what.
And if you ever have another nightmare,
just wake me up. I'm here for you.
>> Thanks, Alex. Just talking about it
makes me feel better. Let's try to get
some sleep.
>> Of course. Good night, Jenny. No more
nightmares. Okay,
>> meeting room.
Hey, Chloe. Did you reserve the meeting
room for our 300 p.m. presentation?
>> Oh, no. I thought you were taking care
of it. Let me quickly check if it's
available.
>> Please do. It's crucial we have that
room. Especially with the tech setup we
need.
>> The system shows it's free. I'll reserve
it now.
Woo! We dodged a bullet there.
>> Thanks, Chloe. And did you get the
presentation slides from Mark?
>> I did, but there were a few edits.
I'll finalize them on the way to the
meeting room.
>> Oh, Chloe, before I forget, do you have
the remote for the projector?
>> It's in my drawer. I'll grab it before
we go. By the way, did you talk to Sarah
about joining us for the meeting?
>> Yes, she said she'll be there. She had
some feedback after reviewing the draft.
>> Great. It's always good to have another
perspective.
Let's make this presentation the best
one yet.
>> Totally agree.
Oh, and Chloe, I was thinking we should
bring some snacks and drinks for the
team.
It's a long presentation and it'll keep
everyone energized.
>> That's thoughtful of you, Alex. I'll
grab some from the cafeteria.
Let's give our team the best experience.
>> With you leading, I have no doubts.
See you in the meeting room.
>> What do we eat for lunch today?
Hey everyone, I'm craving fast food for
lunch today. Any recommendations?
>> How about that new burger place down the
street? I've heard their fries are
legendary.
>> I'm in the mood for some tacos.
There's that Mexican fast food joint
nearby.
Oh, I've been there. Their burritos are
massive and super tasty.
If we're talking fast food, I've been
wanting to try the fried chicken from
Chicky Delight.
It's just around the corner. I'm torn
now. Everything sounds so good.
But maybe we could get a mix. Some
burgers, tacos, and fried chicken.
That's a brilliant idea.
We can have a mini feast right at the
office.
Count me in. I'll handle the burgers.
Jenny, do you want to grab the tacos and
Kevin can get the chicken?
>> Sounds like a plan. Let's meet back here
in 30 minutes. Lunch is going to be
amazing today.
Wow, look at this spread. I think we
might have gone a bit overboard.
No such thing as too much food.
Let's dive in.
This burger is so juicy and the sauce is
amazing.
I'm loving these tacos.
The filling is so fresh.
Brian, you chose well.
And this chicken. Oh my goodness. It's
crispy on the outside and tender inside.
Perfect choice, Kevin.
Thanks. I've been a fan of Chicky
Delight for a while.
Their secret seasoning is just something
else.
We should definitely do this more often.
Mixing different fast foods is such a
treat.
Absolutely. And maybe next time we can
add some pizzas and sandwiches to the
mix. Sounds like a plan. Cheers to more
fun lunches together.
>> Tea break.
Phew, these reports are taking forever.
Anyone up for a tea break? Count me in.
I've been eyeing the new tea flavors in
the pantry.
>> I heard the chamomile tea is really
soothing.
I could use some of that right now.
>> Chamomile is great, but have you tried
the ginger tea? It's got a real kick to
it.
>> Perfect for waking you up.
>> I haven't, but that sounds intriguing.
I'll have a cup of that.
>> Speaking of new flavors, there's also a
lemon tea in there.
Super refreshing and just the right
amount of tang.
>> Lemon tea. That's exactly what I need.
Something to perk me up for the rest of
the afternoon.
You know what would go great with that
tea?
Some of those biscuits from the bakery
across the street.
Should I grab some?
>> That's a brilliant idea, Ethan. Those
biscuits would be perfect right now.
I'll chip in for them.
>> Thanks,
All right, let me grab those and we can
all enjoy a proper tea break together.
shopping list.
Hi, Mom. I'm about to finish up at work.
I'll be home soon.
Oh, Jenny, before you come home, can you
stop by the supermarket?
We need a few things.
Of course, Mom. Do you have a list?
Yes. We need some vegetables, chicken,
bread, and milk.
Oh, and don't forget some fruit for your
dad. He loves those apples.
Got it. Vegetables, chicken, bread,
milk, and apples.
Anything else, Mom?
H Maybe grab some eggs and cheese.
And if they have any of those chocolate
chip cookies on sale, get a pack.
You know how much your brother loves
them. All right, eggs, cheese, and
possibly cookies.
I'll make sure to get everything. See
you in a bit. Thanks, dear. Be safe and
don't rush.
Remember to check the expiry dates,
especially on the milk and eggs.
All right, let's see. Vegetables first.
Oh, those tomatoes look fresh. I'll grab
a few.
There are the apples.
These red ones look delicious.
Now, where's the chicken section?
Perfect. They have organic chicken on
sale. Mom would love that.
Next. Bread and milk.
I always forget where they keep the
bread.
Ah, there it is.
And the milk. Let's check the date.
Okay, this one is fresh. Now for the
eggs.
Oh, hey, there's Sarah from HR.
Maybe I should say hi after grabbing the
cheese.
Cheese check. Eggs check.
Now, where are those cookies?
Ah, there they are. On sale, just like
mom said. Perfect. That should be
everything.
Time to head to the checkout.
Jenny, over here.
How's it going? Haven't seen you in
ages.
Hey, Sarah. I'm good. Just grabbing some
things for dinner.
It's been so long. We should catch up
soon.
Absolutely. Let's plan something.
Have a great evening and enjoy your
shopping.
Thanks, Sarah. You too. Take care.
Romantic date.
Hey, Jenny. You know what?
How about we go for a late night date?
Just the two of us.
>> Oh, Alex, that sounds lovely.
I could use a drink after today.
>> Great. Let's head to that cozy bar
downtown.
They have the best cocktails.
>> Sounds perfect. Let me just change real
quick.
>> Here we are. I love the ambiance of this
place.
It's always so calming.
>> Absolutely.
>> So, tell me, how was your day at the
company?
Anything interesting?
Oh, it was just the usual meetings,
paperwork.
But Sarah from HR and I had a fun chat
at the supermarket.
How about you?
Well, there's a new project coming up
and I might be leading it.
Exciting times ahead.

you.
