00:
00:19,052 -- 00:00:20,326

My mom said

2

00:
00:20,754 -- 00:00:23,963

color and smell have a huge effect

on people's moods.

3

00:
00:24,858 -- 00:00:25,734

So I wonder,

4

00:
00:26,326 -- 00:00:28,328

if that theory is true,

5

00:
00:28,728 -- 00:00:31,538

what colors make me excited, or nervous?

6

00:
00:32,298 -- 00:00:33,675

Or happy, or worried?

7

00:
00:34,501 -- 00:00:36,412

And what are the smells that make me...

8

00:
00:36,803 -- 00:00:38,612

giddy one minute

9

00:
00:39,406 -- 00:00:40,908

and hysterical the next,

10

00:
00:41,641 -- 00:00:43,416

that fill me with so much love

I forget where I am,

11

00:
00:43,910 -- 00:00:45,583

or so stubborn

about something I can't let go.

12

00:
00:46,813 -- 00:00:47,689

Gong Ning

13

00:
00:48,515 -- 00:00:49,391

But I know,

14

00:
00:49,916 -- 00:00:53,659

you're the reason I feel all these emotions.

15

00:
01:28,688 -- 00:01:30,861

It's 3:
30 on the 15th.

16

00:
01:32,926 -- 00:01:33,529

Gong Ning

17

00:
01:34,461 -- 00:01:37,067

if I hadn't just listened to

what I recorded for you yesterday,

18

00:
01:37,797 -- 00:01:40,038

I wouldn't remember

any of what I said to you.

19

00:
01:42,802 -- 00:01:44,782

I guess my memory is getting worse.

20

00:
01:47,574 -- 00:01:50,714

Have I said that to you before too'?

21

00:
01:55,515 -- 00:01:56,653

A kid named Ming got a new haircut.

22

00:
01:56,883 -- 00:01:59,022

The next day,

all the kids at school laughed at him.

23

00:
01:59,452 -- 00:02:00,931

They said,

Your new haircut looks like a kite!

24

00:
02:01,488 -- 00:02:04,059

Ming was hurt, and he ran outside

and started crying.

25

00:
02:04,624 -- 00:02:05,967

He cried, and he cried, and cried...

26

00:
02:06,593 -- 00:02:07,799

and then a gust of wind caught him,

and he ew.

27

00:
02:13,733 -- 00:02:14,438

Your turn.

28

00:
02:14,868 -- 00:02:16,506

A centipede, spider, and ant

29

00:
02:16,836 -- 00:02:18,816

go to help their friend the butterfly move.

30

00:
02:19,139 -- 00:02:19,776

And then?

31

00:
02:21,708 -- 00:02:22,948

Hey, knock it off!

32

00:
02:23,176 -- 00:02:24,382

I'm not even done and you're laughing.

33

00:
02:24,811 -- 00:02:26,017

Hon, butterflies don't have homes.

34

00:
02:30,016 -- 00:02:31,051

Technical foul, you lose. Hand it over.

35

00:
02:34,487 -- 00:02:35,591

So much for childhood innocence...

36

00:
02:37,190 -- 00:02:39,466

The sweating and the forgetfulness

37

00:
02:39,692 -- 00:02:41,694

are just side effects of her medicine,

nothing you need to worry about.

38

00:
02:42,595 -- 00:02:44,438

Her condition is hereditary,

39

00:
02:44,898 -- 00:02:46,844

it's very different

from ordinary myasthenia gravis.

40

00:
02:47,800 -- 00:02:49,575

So what about what we just talked about?

41

00:
02:51,171 -- 00:02:52,411

She needs to avoid physical exertion.

42

00:
02:53,173 -- 00:02:53,913

I'm sure you know

43

00:
02:54,140 -- 00:02:56,984

Respiratory muscle paralysis

can be life threatening.

44

00:
02:57,577 -- 00:03:00,023

Even though other doctors might not agree,

45

00:
03:00,580 -- 00:03:03,993

I think, for her safety,

we should increase her dosage,

46

00:
03:04,784 -- 00:03:07,060

or the risk of muscle paralysis is too high.

47

00:
03:30,043 -- 00:03:34,014

Rock Rock Rock

48

00:
03:35,548 -- 00:03:38,461

"I have a donkey, and I never rode it"

49

00:
03:38,685 -- 00:03:41,723

"But one day, I got bored,

and rode it to the market"

50

00:
03:41,921 -- 00:03:44,993

"I felt so proud

with my little whip in my hand"

51

00:
03:45,258 -- 00:03:48,501

"Then suddenly I slipped off

and fell in the mud"

52

00:
03:49,629 -- 00:03:53,873

Rock Rock Rock

53

00:
03:55,501 -- 00:03:57,503

"I have a donkey"

54

00:
03:58,738 -- 00:04:00,775

"I have a donkey"

55

00:
04:02,008 -- 00:04:04,989

"I have a donkey, and I never rode it"

56

00:
04:05,211 -- 00:04:08,488

"But one day, I got bored,

and rode it to the market"

57

00:
04:08,715 -- 00:04:11,662

"I felt so proud

with my little whip in my hand"

58

00:
04:11,951 -- 00:04:14,056

"Then suddenly..."

59

00:
04:50,023 -- 00:04:51,093

Sorry, sorry... Are you ok?

60

00:
04:51,291 -- 00:04:52,736

Sorry, my rooster acts up sometimes.

You're not hurt, are you?

61

00:
04:55,995 -- 00:04:56,803

Song Shiqiao?!

62

00:
04:59,799 -- 00:05:00,834

Are you Song Shiqiao?

63

00:
05:04,671 -- 00:05:05,240

I'm Gong Ning

64

00:
05:10,109 -- 00:05:12,555

That rooster belongs to our guitarist,

Chunzi.

65

00:
05:12,912 -- 00:05:15,153

It hatched from an egg

he bought a few years ago.

66

00:
05:15,315 -- 00:05:16,623

And back then, it was cute,

67

00:
05:17,283 -- 00:05:18,591

so he didn't want to get rid of it.

68

00:
05:22,989 -- 00:05:24,195

You've changed a lot.

69

00:
05:25,591 -- 00:05:26,831

I couldn't tell it was you at all.

70

00:
05:27,860 -- 00:05:28,736

Well, yeah!

71

00:
05:31,331 -- 00:05:33,208

With this thing on,

who could tell it was me?

72

00:
05:33,766 -- 00:05:35,768

If it weren't for

those weird hiccups of yours

73

00:
05:35,968 -- 00:05:38,312

I'd never guess you were the same girl

who sat behind me in class.

74

00:
05:39,105 -- 00:05:40,709

Do you remember that time in math class

75

00:
05:42,175 -- 00:05:44,121

when a cockroach ew out of the wall?

76

00:
05:45,912 -- 00:05:48,188

Everybody else was screaming,

but you hiccuped.

77

00:
05:50,249 -- 00:05:51,728

I get the hiccups when I'm nervous.

78

00:
05:53,720 -- 00:05:54,926

That was chemistry, wasn't it?

79

00:
05:56,656 -- 00:05:57,327

Math.

80

00:
06:10,937 -- 00:06:11,938

This is my cell number.

81

00:
06:12,305 -- 00:06:13,215

Call me sometime.

82

00:
06:15,375 -- 00:06:16,649

I have to go let the organizers

tear me a new one.

83

00:
06:24,016 -- 00:06:24,721

Bye.

84

00:
06:55,281 -- 00:06:56,089

What's wrong?

85

00:
06:56,449 -- 00:06:57,792

Are you tired? Does something hurt'?

86

00:
07:00,253 -- 00:07:00,958

Mom...

87

00:
07:02,321 -- 00:07:05,200

is this medicine making me stupid?

88

00:
07:06,359 -- 00:07:07,235

Why would it'?

89

00:
07:08,394 -- 00:07:10,305

I feel like my memory is getting worse.

90

00:
07:12,365 -- 00:07:14,936

I met someone I used

to go to high school with,

91

00:
07:15,768 -- 00:07:17,179

But I could hardly recognize him.

92

00:
07:19,705 -- 00:07:20,308

Boy or girl?

93

00:
07:21,707 -- 00:07:22,412

Boy.

94

00:
07:24,010 -- 00:07:24,818

Same homeroom?

95

00:
07:26,112 -- 00:07:28,888

We were in the same lit class, junior year.

96

00:
07:29,449 -- 00:07:30,291

But, after a few months,

97

00:
07:30,716 -- 00:07:32,354

he cleaned out his desk and left.

98

00:
07:33,019 -- 00:07:35,397

I think it had something to do

with his dad's job,

99

00:
07:35,888 -- 00:07:36,798

so he had to transfer.

100

00:
07:37,723 -- 00:07:38,292

You liked him?

101

00:
07:39,992 -- 00:07:41,062

No!

102

00:
07:42,462 -- 00:07:44,373

Then it's normal you wouldn't recognize him!

103

00:
07:44,864 -- 00:07:45,774
