VIDEO TRANSCRIPT

Aiko: Hello World, where I’m from this is what my bedroom is like. Oh no! It’s a mess!
I’m done. And this is my bedroom.
These are called tatami. And these materials are a long grass that the people weaved. These, well we broke it. Maybe doing something it gets broken. And I see these kind of little long grass.
Most beds are like these. Well, in Japanese you call it futon. Futon. And this is how my bed looks like. I added some animals, so it looks comfy. So I just put random toys. And this is the, the bear. It’s the same. It’s called Flody, it’s kind of scary. This is one of the characters for the backpack. This is from Minecraft. And it’s called a Mooshroom. Who do you think will win the fight? Go! Kitty, scratch! Mooo, I’m slow. Pow! Jiji wins!
It’s kind of dirty but ... Yeah, we have to ... Oop!
Here, this is my place. Normally people, in these closets, they put futons and stuff.
Ah! We have these buttons. To put it, like off and on. And, one more thing - we have different light. So, we have this light. And this orange light for nighttime. And this normal light. And, we have these switches.
But, when you’re sleeping, you’re just so tired and you don’t want to go up. And this is what you need! A remote control. So when you’re sleeping, like, aaaaah, why I have to go out! This, will be good. Put this, off. And this is full. From the button we have three options. But this has a lot of options. This, this, this, this, this and this. And then this, means off. See ya next time, bye!
Oh! And I forgot to tell you! This is my brother’s side, Shin. And then, I’m going to show you. Ow! It is a monster! Wait, wait, WAIT! Shin, Shin stop, go away!
Good night!
