1. 0:00Hi everyone!
2. 0:01My name is Mia, and today I’d like to introduce myself.
3. 0:05Talking about myself is not always easy
4. 0:08because I never know which details to share first.
5. 0:13I’ll begin with some basic information
6. 0:15and then tell you about my work, personality,
7. 0:19interests, and daily life.
8. 0:22I’m twenty-five years old.
9. 0:24I have long, straight brown hair and brown eyes.
10. 0:28I’m not very tall, and I usually wear simple,
11. 0:32comfortable clothes.
12. 0:34On most days, I choose jeans,
13. 0:36a T-shirt, or a light blouse.
14. 0:40I don’t follow every new fashion trend,
15. 0:43but I like looking neat and wearing clothes
16. 0:45that are suitable for what I’m doing.
17. 0:48I live with my family in a quiet neighborhood.
18. 0:52Our home is not very large,
19. 0:54but everyone has a place for their own things.
20. 0:58My favorite spot is a small desk
21. 1:00near my bedroom window.
22. 1:02I use it for reading, working on my laptop,
23. 1:06planning my week, and sometimes having a cup of tea.
24. 1:10I try to keep the desk tidy,
25. 1:12although papers and notebooks often begin to pile up
26. 1:15after a busy few days.
27. 1:18I work in an office during the week.
28. 1:21My main tasks include answering emails,
29. 1:24preparing documents, checking information,
30. 1:28and helping my coworkers with different projects.
31. 1:31Some days are calm,
32. 1:33while others are full of small tasks
33. 1:35that need to be finished quickly.
34. 1:38I usually arrive at around eight thirty in the morning
35. 1:41and leave in the late afternoon.
36. 1:44I keep a notebook beside my computer
37. 1:46because writing things down
38. 1:48helps me remember important details.
39. 1:51I’m a rather quiet person,
40. 1:54especially when I meet someone for the first time.
41. 1:57I don’t usually begin long conversations with strangers,
42. 2:01but I become more talkative when I feel comfortable.
43. 2:04I prefer meeting one or two close friends
44. 2:07instead of going to a large party.
45. 2:10My friends often say that I’m a good listener.
46. 2:13I’m also patient,
47. 2:14but I sometimes spend too much time
48. 2:16checking small details
49. 2:18because I don’t want to make mistakes.
50. 2:22In my free time,
51. 2:23I enjoy simple activities.
52. 2:26I like watching dramas and light comedy shows.
53. 2:30I also listen to music while cleaning my room,
54. 2:33organizing my wardrobe, or preparing a meal.
55. 2:37I’m not an excellent cook,
56. 2:39but I can make a few basic dishes,
57. 2:41such as fried rice,
58. 2:43pasta, soup, and sandwiches.
59. 2:47On weekends, I sometimes try a new recipe.
60. 2:51Some meals turn out well,
61. 2:53while others need a little more practice.
62. 2:56I also enjoy learning practical things.
63. 3:00Recently, I have been taking a short online course
64. 3:03about personal finance.
65. 3:05I’m learning how to plan a monthly budget,
66. 3:08understand different types of expenses,
67. 3:11and save for future needs.
68. 3:13I usually watch one short lesson at a time
69. 3:17and write down the main points in a notebook.
70. 3:20I’m still learning,
71. 3:21but I have already started paying more attention
72. 3:24to where my money goes each month.
73. 3:27When I have some free time outside the house,
74. 3:30I enjoy meeting my close friends.
75. 3:32We often meet at a café,
76. 3:34have lunch together,
77. 3:36or walk around the city
78. 3:37while talking about what has happened during the week.
79. 3:40Sometimes we visit a bookstore,
80. 3:43try a new restaurant,
81. 3:44or go to a park when the weather is pleasant.
82. 3:47Our plans are usually simple,
83. 3:50but I always enjoy the conversations
84. 3:52and laughter we share.
85. 3:55In the future,
86. 3:56I’d like to become better at managing my time and money.
87. 4:00I also hope to learn more useful skills,
88. 4:03travel to a few new places,
89. 4:05and become more confident in unfamiliar situations.
90. 4:10I don’t have every detail planned yet,
91. 4:12but I’m interested in trying new experiences
92. 4:15and meeting people from different backgrounds.
93. 4:28If something is neat, it looks clean, tidy, and in good order.
94. 4:35Mia liked wearing simple clothes that made her look neat.
95. 4:48If a place is tidy, it is clean and organized, with things in the right place.
96. 4:55Mia tried to keep her desk tidy, but papers sometimes piled up.
97. 5:09To pile up means to collect or increase in one place over time.
98. 5:16After a busy week, notebooks and papers began to pile up on Mia’s desk.
99. 5:31If someone is talkative, they like to talk a lot.
100. 5:36Mia was friendly, but she was not very talkative around new people.
101. 5:49To prefer means to like one thing more than another thing.
102. 5:56Mia preferred quiet evenings at home to crowded places.
103. 6:09Dramas are movies, shows, or stories about serious situations and people’s feelings.
104. 6:17Mia liked watching dramas because the stories felt emotional and real.
105. 6:31To turn out means to happen or end in a particular way.
106. 6:37Mia was worried at first, but the day turned out better than she expected.
107. 6:51Finance is the management of money, especially by a person, company, or organization.
108. 7:00Mia wanted to learn more about personal finance so she could manage her money better.
