Shadowing Practice: 10 oddly specific things to NEVER share with anyone - Learn English Speaking with Video
Creando lección...
1
Here's 10 oddly specific things you should keep to yourself as I do my makeup.
2
And just to clarify, these are things you shouldn't share like with your friends
3
or like a romantic interest you just met, okay?
4
Some secrets, obviously, if it's the vibe, tell people, do what you want.
5
But you can't say I didn't tell you so.
6
And these are going to be like really oddly specific
7
because I literally have been through
8
so much in my life where I've made some of these mistakes before and I really wish I didn't.
9
Number one, don't tell people what phone carrier you have.
10
I know that's really oddly specific, but don't tell just like the random person because there's something called one-time pin fraud.
11
AI is literally getting to the point where it's scary nowadays and people could literally use your photo, make a fake ID of you,
12
go into your carrier, get four lines, screw up your credit, or not even just that.
13
They can just say that your phone went missing and then boom.
14
All of a sudden, you're locked out of all of your accounts, your Instagram, your bank, because basically they send a one-time PIN to your phone number,
15
which just got swapped to another phone.
16
It essentially locks you out of your phone to where you can't even use your number anymore
17
because it's literally swapped to another phone.
18
So of course, all of those forgot password texts are going to your number.
19
And again, this video is going to be oddly specific, but it can save your life.
20
If you're on social media at all, even if you're not an influencer or anything, you need to be on your P's and your Q's when it comes to two-step verification and all of that,
21
especially as AI advances.
22
This is just my prediction, whatever, but I feel like there's going to be a lot more cases where AI actually messes up the court system.
23
This stuff is so new that people's lives are being ruined from identity fraud, and it's all because they trusted someone they thought they knew.
24
A friend shouldn't know your phone carrier.
25
If someone you don't really trust is asking you, oh, what phone carrier do you go to?
26
Don't tell them.
27
And this might be controversial, but in reality, it's not.
28
It's 100% okay if you lie in situations that can put you in danger.
29
That's not me telling you to be like a compulsive liar or whatever.
30
That's literally just me telling you like, girl, stay on your P's and your Q's, okay?
31
Nobody needs to know that information.
32
This next one might seem like common sense, but common sense really isn't that common nowadays don't tell people anything that can be used in a password.
33
Your mother's maiden name, your first dog's name, you know, anything that's usually used as a second password guesser, like don't tell people that.
34
Like why would a boyfriend need to know your mother's maiden name for real?
35
You know what I mean?
36
And this isn't me like trying to cast out on the people you love
37
because obviously like you love them for a reason.
38
They're in your life for a reason.
39
I would hope they would never do something like
40
that to you where they would like use your personal information and try to sabotage you, but you never really know someone, okay?
41
And so because of that, you need to take precautions.
42
Also for those wondering the foundation and concealer combo, I'm not done putting on the concealer by the way.
43
I look dead, but I use the Bobbi Brown foundation.
44
This is the Skin Longwear Weightless Foundation and then the Hourglass Concealer.
45
Both of them have a price tag, but they're worth it.
46
I might be sharing things you should never tell anyone, but I'm certainly not a gatekeeper.
47
You're welcome, bestie.
48
The third thing you should gatekeep is a little bit controversial.
49
I don't know if the girlies are gonna agree with me, but I'm gonna say it anyways.
50
Your relationship problems.
51
Your relationship problems.
52
Okay, I'm gonna say it very, very clear.
53
If you're in a toxic situation, you know you need to get out of it.
54
You already know that.
55
But are you ready for it?
56
And this is something I had to ask myself
57
because I was always a girl who would go to my friends crying about my boy troubles and this, that, and the third just to end up back with the same guy
58
because I knew I wasn't ready to let it go.
59
Brow combo is the Anastasia Beverly Hills Brow Freeze Gel and then the Brow Definer.
60
I'm gonna look crazy for a second as I do this cream blush
61
because I always do blush and contour and then concealer.
62
That's a tip if you use a lot of cream concealers or cream bronzers.
63
Before you put on concealer so that way your concealer doesn't crease, do your liquid contour and blush first.
64
Okay, back to what we were saying.
65
Your friends They friends want to help you okay they're not
66
trying to give you advice to be mean they're trying to help you unless they're a bad friend
67
but most friends are going to get mad when they hear some toxic
68
that you're going through because they see your value okay they see your value
69
but if you keep going to them with the same problems over
70
and over and over again they're going to start to distance themselves.
71
And this is why I say you need to know when you're actually ready.
72
And here's my thing.
73
I know when I'm in a situation I have no business being in, but I'm still going to be in it.
74
And I'm still going back.
75
And you cannot convince me otherwise.
76
I'm sorry.
77
That's just how I am.
78
And I won't tell anybody about it because I know I'm chaotic sometimes.
79
All right.
80
I can admit it.
81
I'm a little chaotic when it comes to my love life, but it's my love life for a reason because I love them.
82
Sorry, I'm getting a little bit dramatic, but I see both sides of it because I've been on both ends.
83
I've had a friend come to me over and over and over again.
84
He did this to me and then not leave.
85
Like, girl, it's giving you don't love yourself.
86
It's giving you don't value yourself.
87
And it's giving you're wasting my time too.
88
And I would get so mad when I saw my friends, you know, disrespect themselves by going back to a situation
89
that they had no business being in until I did the same exact thing.
90
And then I didn't tell anybody about it because in my own mind, I was trying to fix them.
91
I was trying to do this.
92
I was trying to do that in the third.
93
And I didn't want to hear anyone's opinion on it, quite frankly.
94
And that's okay.
95
Okay.
96
If you're in that moment where you're like, I'm self-sabotaging right now, or I'm doing something for the plot, you do that.
97
I've been there, but I'm gonna be over here.
98
Okay.
99
And if you come to me with it and then don't take my advice, I'm distancing myself from you.
100
I don't want chaos in my life and I don't want to go out of my way, stay up on the phone with you for hours on end,
101
have you tell me about all of your relationship problems just to have you go back.
102
That's stupid, that's dumb.
103
And another part of it, if you're actually in a good relationship, sometimes people will try to sabotage it.
104
And I hate to say that.
105
I don't think all the time, okay?
106
Sometimes there are some snakes around you though
107
and you gotta be careful who you share relationship advice to
108
because there's the girls who are always just like just dump
109
him just dump him sometimes he's a good man okay the man is good he just did something dumb
110
and i'm not talking about cheating i'm talking about you know
111
like he pissed you off you know what i mean
112
because we don't tolerate cheaters around here okay that's just one thing i gotta make clear
113
but if he genuinely made a mistake
114
and made up for it like you're gonna have girls being like oh i would have dumped him for
115
that i would have okay okay really stand on that then
116
and those girls who are judgmental always get hit with their karma too that's just something
117
that i've experienced you know what i mean everyone goes through their toxic relationship era
118
and sometimes you just gotta let your friend be in that
119
but stay at a distance and that's why you need to accept people as they are
120
and place them where they belong if you're getting pissed off at a friend
121
because you're like girl why didn't you just leave him why
122
don't you just do this sometimes they're not ready to face
123
that within themselves and that's not a you issue you as a friend need to distance yourself
124
if it's causing you mental distress
125
but like i don't think you should not be friends with
126
someone based on their relationship problems i just feel like you're involving yourself too much in
127
that situation so yeah just don't share it
128
if you're gonna make some stupid decisions just keep it to yourself
129
and then spill the tea later that's what i do
130
because you live and you learn all nighter setting spray and then we're doing the one size beauty powder
131
one size beauty blush trio in the shade cheek clapper i already used the blush
132
so i'm going to going to use this blush.
133
This is also the highlight I use, but I'm going to do highlight later.
134
Don't let girls know who your ex is.
135
Don't let girls you just met know who your ex is.
136
That's going to become their ex.
137
Okay.
138
Cause he's going to, he's going to go to them and it's going to be a he he ha ha.
139
No, if it's your close friend, of course, of course, bestie, like we're going to make fun of him.
140
We're going to say he's a clown because obviously I didn't go for looks, but like, seriously, don't let these girls know.
141
Okay.
142
They don't need to know who you've been with.
143
And that's the next one.
144
What number five don't kiss and tell that one's obvious, but don't post when you're out of place.
145
Okay, if you're out of place and you're posting on your Instagram story, that's literally you just being like, Hey, come find me.
146
Come stalk me.
147
Literally don't do that don't do
148
that there's no reason people need to be knowing exactly where you are leave wait two hours
149
and then post it or shoo wait until the next day to post it
150
because then you're content prepping you know what i mean this it's the age of the influencers okay
151
so you can content prep you went out to dinner two nights ago
152
and all of a sudden you're at home in your bed
153
and you're like let me let me pretend i'm going to dinner it'll definitely confuse your roster
154
but but in a good way.
155
I mean, that's what I do on my Instagram.
156
That means you should go follow it.
157
Okay.
158
If you're watching this far, you obviously vibe with me.
159
You obviously like me.
160
Go check out the Instagram.
161
We're almost at 10k, but subscribe if you want to.
162
Okay.
163
Am I good enough?
164
Please, please like me.
165
Am I good enough?
166
Shut up.
167
Sorry.
168
I'm weird sometimes.
169
I love a good trauma dump, but girl, nobody needs to know about your mom's divorces.
170
Nobody needs to know.
171
Nobody needs to know.
172
Okay.
173
Okay.
174
Here's the thing.
175
If the vibe is trauma dumping, then we're in a trauma dump okay we're gonna bond over
176
our trauma it's fine to bond over trauma it's not
177
that deep but when it is that deep and
178
when it's a stranger and
179
when you're in a professional setting why are you talking to me about your mom's divorce
180
and don't get me wrong i order myself a yappuccino every single morning i know i yap
181
and sometimes it's trauma okay sometimes it's trauma
182
and that's just how it is
183
but i think you should keep certain traumas to yourself
184
if you do it do it in a joking way okay don't be weird
185
and make the conversation dull like do it in a funny way if you're gonna trauma dump Don't make it serious.
186
Don't make me say, oh, I'm sorry.
187
Like, why am I saying sorry?
188
I didn't hurt you.
189
That's the next one.
190
What?
191
Number seven?
192
I don't know what number we're on.
193
If you're meeting someone new, don't tell them about your past.
194
This is the NYX, I don't know, eyeliner.
195
I put it in my waterline.
196
Don't tell the man you just met about your past.
197
Okay.
198
And I think this goes for anyone, but this is for the girlies.
199
Obviously, I'm doing a makeup tutorial.
200
I feel like it's mostly the girls here.
201
If you're a man, it's cool too.
202
Okay.
203
I'm not going to make you feel weird for being here
204
but if you just met a man okay you don't need to be talking about how your ex hurt you
205
because he's gonna do the same thing
206
if anything say your ex was great okay don't talk about
207
the parts where he was bad until you're actually like involved with the man you know what i mean
208
because first date you're saying oh he did this to me he did
209
that to me that's just him taking down notes he's like oh okay
210
so she tolerates this she tolerates cheating she tolerates lighting she's
211
like he's taking notes being like damn he did her like
212
that i'm gonna do her worse i'm gonna do her worse
213
he is going to do you worse wake up wake up he's gonna do you way worse
214
and you're gonna be crying
215
and you're gonna be like why did he do this to me
216
because you literally said this is how my ex hurt me
217
you gave him a tutorial babe like can we please be honest right now i don't care
218
if you lie to the man okay i don't care
219
if you say my ex did this this this
220
and this for me i don't care what you got to do just don't tell him you cheated on you
221
and dogged you out don't tell him
222
that shit at this point in this dating economy
223
that can be inferred okay
224
but you can still say oh he opened every door of
225
mine he bought me flowers he did highlight all the good positive things he did even
226
if he didn't do it okay you're manifesting him doing it
227
because obviously in men's mind men are competitive okay
228
if you approach a date like okay this is just how
229
i've been treated you know obviously i'm gonna wait i'm not
230
gonna rush to open the door i'm gonna wait for him to open in the door.
231
I'm going to wait for him to take the lead.
232
It's going to set off the stage for you to be treated better because from the beginning, he should be treating you like a queen.
233
He should be courting you.
234
I think some of y'all need a little bit more respect for the love bombing phase.
235
And I'm not saying that in a funny way.
236
I'm saying that in a legitimate way.
237
Like feel the honeymoon phase.
238
Shit.
239
Why are we talking about trauma on our first date?
240
Why are we talking about how your ex did you dirty on your first date?
241
Of course, the man is going to be scared.
242
I'm not saying live a lie.
243
I'm not telling you fabricate your entire existence and say you grew up in a perfect two pant household and you were, you know, rich.
244
No, I'm not saying that.
245
I'm just saying don't share things right off the, like, you know what I mean?
246
The trauma comes out later.
247
It's like, can we have peace in the first two months of meeting each other?
248
Next, don't share mistakes you're actively working on, you know, regrets you have that are just unnecessary.
249
Some people will never understand, all right, and it's okay that you've made mistakes in the past.
250
Like, I feel like so many people would be like, oh, I would never, I would never do that.
251
No, yes, you would, and you've done some things that you regret in your past.
252
If you're actively working on becoming a better person, like, don't get me wrong, this doesn't apply to, like, people who've done horrible, terrible things and are sitting on death row.
253
I'm just talking about like maybe you led someone on
254
or you didn't communicate yourself effectively
255
or you screamed at someone like you know what I mean things like
256
that there's going to be times where you're obviously in the wrong ask yourself
257
if this person has the awareness in order to understand your change
258
and if they don't you just like don't really mention it
259
because at the end of the day like nobody needs to know your deepest darkest mistakes
260
or ways that you fumbled or things like that.
261
Back to lighthearted things.
262
Don't give someone your drink.
263
Are you stupid?
264
If even a friend, like even a female, like yes, most females, you can trust them with your drink because like we're women.
265
There should be no reason you're drinking out of someone's bottle.
266
There should be no reason that you're letting someone you don't know prepare your drink unless it's the bartender.
267
All right.
268
Unless it's the person literally working there and he hands you it.
269
Not to like weirdly steer the conversation super deep, but like things happen fast.
270
And especially with your girls like watch out for them even watch out for girls
271
that are strangers like if you see something weird like get someone involved
272
because you never know
273
if you're saving their life next don't show people your vision board I just made a vision board
274
and I was hesitant I showed like my close friends
275
because I don't know about y'all but like I'm really delulu
276
when it comes to my achievements and the things I want to do
277
and so I can't be just showing like the regular average person my vision board
278
because they're gonna be like oh you want to be on the red carpet one day
279
shut up like okay god forbid you have dreams god forbid you have things you want to achieve in life
280
so yeah don't share people your vision board keep it to
281
yourself like i don't really believe in like someone evil eyeing
282
me really affecting me like yes people look at me
283
and are jealous or things like that i'm fine with
284
that hoes can be mad you know like every hoe has the ability to be mad i'd be mad too
285
if i were y'all however i don't need to show y'all my dreams
286
because then it just makes me feel like y'all are involved in a process you shouldn't be involved in.
287
This is for my Delulu brain.
288
You know, my dreams are for me.
289
It's not for anyone else.
290
It's not to prove to people this, that, and the third.
291
It's literally just to make me feel good about myself and to have a vision for my future.
292
And so if you're making a vision board this year, yeah, just don't really show anyone.
293
Why do they need to know?
294
They don't need to know.
295
This lip liner is so cool because it just like peels off or lip stain, whatever.
296
I use it as a liner.
297
I just rub out whatever I feel like doesn't look right
298
and then i put a gloss on top of it this is the maybelline gloss the last oddly specific thing
299
that you shouldn't tell people about is
300
if you've done any crime i know that's like really obvious
301
but i feel like people get online nowadays and went like i used to shoplift i used to do like
302
digital footprint is a thing put your brain cells together
303
and realize that like not everyone is going to be on board with
304
that again like don't discuss your past mistakes or things like that
305
don't just come on the internet
306
and be like yeah these are the crimes i did this
307
is a tutorial on how to do crime like go log off touch some grass okay
308
but my makeup wait my makeup my makeup my makeup okay i'll tag all the products i use below
309
because i'm not a gatekeeper there are things i don't tell y'all
310
but i'm not a gatekeeper there's also just like little ones
311
like don't tell people what car you drive don't tell people
312
your driver's license number don't tell people your social like obvious ones don't be dumb
313
but these were just some oddly specific ones and kind of of just like a little rant for you guys.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?
Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
