realize that it’s 35°C out there? Also, we are going to march
along the streets for hours and dance until midnight. You need to change.

comfortable shoes. It’ll be too tiring to walk or dance for a long time
in those shoes.
Li Mei: Hmm, you are right. Can you wait for me? I’ll change right away.
Carla: Sure!
[after a few seconds]

all have a real treat for the eyes.

pieces of papers? Are they wishes?

correctly, you can get a nice gift.
Woman: Oh, what a nice idea!
