考官
Do you prefer to chat with a group of people or with only one friend?

It totally depends on the kind of conversation we are having. Sometimes, uh, if it is a very private conversation that only one friend of mine knows, I would rather go to her and talk about it. Umm, On the other hand, if it's something, uh, in a general basis, I would like to talk with my friend group.

Do you prefer to communicate face-to-face or via social media?

Do you argue with friends?

Not really. I think we have reached to that stage in life where all of us have grown up and become mature to respect and understand each other's opinions and boundaries. That is why I do not encounter with any umm arguments with my friends.

× My friends and I usually chat about our, uh, daily activities that we had, uh, throughout the day or umm, if there was any eventful incidents that we could share, umm, we also like to uh, vent and rant about uh.
✓ My friends and I usually chat about our, uh, daily activities that we had, uh, throughout the day or umm, if there were any eventful incidents that we could share, umm, we also like to uh, vent and rant about uh.
The phrase 'if there was any eventful incidents' contains a singular verb 'was' with a plural noun 'incidents'. The correct verb form should be 'were' to agree with the plural noun. This is a past tense issue involving subject-verb agreement in conditional clauses.
× I think we have reached to that stage in life where all of us have grown up and become mature to respect and understand each other's opinions and boundaries.
✓ I think we have reached that stage in life where all of us have grown up and become mature enough to respect and understand each other's opinions and boundaries.
The verb 'reach' does not require the preposition 'to' after it. The correct phrase is 'have reached that stage'. Also, adding 'enough' after 'mature' clarifies the meaning. This is an incorrect use of prepositions issue.
