My speaking is much better than before because I started using the script. Here is the script:
Hello, Internet. This is Rican speaking. Today I want to talk about travel.
Yesterday, I went on a trip with my friend. We drove for about two hours to our destination. On the way, I bought some steamed dumplings. While I was chatting with the owner and asking for travel advice, another customer who seemed to visit the area often joined in. We didn’t really discuss travel options; instead, we talked about how wealthy this customer is. He owns a lot of land at the travel location we visited, so I jokingly asked him, "Do you need a stepson?"
I mean, I’d love to have a rich stepfather who owns a whole street of land! That would mean so much to me because I could use that land to build a ton of pet stores, parking lots, or maybe even some adult toy shops, which would be a great decision for my own purposes. I could boost the local economy. Just imagine traveling in a natural, clean, and comfortable place surrounded by animals, and then seeing an adult toy shop. How surprised would you be? You might wonder, "Yeah, so, how does this help my trip or boost the local economy?" Well, at least it surprises you, right?
Unfortunately, my potential stepfather rejected my request, saying, and I quote, "I have never heard such a stupid thing in my entire life. Also, no offense, but you’re a bit too ugly." But we still had a good laugh. He laughed so hard that he almost dropped his steamed dumplings. In fact, he did drop one, and I tried to pick it up and return it to him, but he politely refused. What a wonderful man!
By the way, the steamed dumplings were amazing—wonderfully flavorful and juicy, stuffed with minced pork and green onions. After finishing my breakfast, we visited a famous castle picture point. There was a facial care shop combined with natural travel art where you could make your own handmade items, but I wasn't interested in that. They did have a lot of free-to-try skin protection products. Since it was a hot summer day, I used some sunscreen from there. I can't say I understand the difference between their sunscreen and other normal, cheap ones, but at that moment, using their sunscreen felt definitely more wonderful and beautiful. They even said I could take it for free and only buy it if I liked it. I didn’t buy it, though, and I felt a bit guilty, but their sunscreens are amazing. I had a great trip without getting sunburned, thanks to their generosity and the good quality of their sunscreen.
After that, we took some pictures and spent time at a coffee shop, which was expensive. Before we went in, we needed to buy tickets to enter, and the tickets had some coupons. We used those coupons to get ice cream with a cup of milk. I didn't want to spend my money on a tourist restaurant. The taste was just normal and expensive. I might go to a local cheap shop next time for some noodles and snacks that would cost just a few dollars.
In the end, it was still a pretty good experience. It doesn’t matter where you are; it always matters who you are traveling with. I love spending time with my friends, most of whom are not particularly intelligent, including myself. But I just love traveling like that, where you can forget about everything and just do stupid things with friends.
Our travel isn't over yet, so next time, I’ll continue with the next part of the trip. But for today, I'll end here. I’m Rican. See you next time, Internet.
