Polished transcript:

Male Female

Well, there are so many things I like to do when I'm alone. Some of them are really weird, but some of them are generally what a normal person does. One thing I do mostly when I'm alone is dance because I'm really bad at dancing, and my friends and family are the only people who have seen me dance, and their feedback was really horrible. So that's the reason I keep it hidden, but I do enjoy my own company. Apart from that, I like to do some chores related to dishwashing, cleaning the house, and even outside as well. If I have some time, I go to nearby parks and observe kids playing on the playground. Seeing them makes me feel like I was when I was a kid; I was also like them and enjoyed a lot, worrying about nothing. These are the things that make me feel like I'm living my life and really enjoying the things I do.
