Good morning guys, it's Syd.

Today we're doing another vlog.

And today I'm not working, so I wanted to do things that I haven't done.

in the city before.

I feel like being in a routine is a really good thing, and something that I really love is being in a routine, but it's also good to break out of it and try new things.

I think I get really comfortable with my life, and I just never wanna stray away from my three places that I go on the daily.

I have my coffee shop that I love.

I have my dinner spot that I love.

I have my shops that I love, and I just think I have an obsessive personality.

Honestly because I never seem to stray away from them

and I really just like want to try new spots today So like I said, I'm a habit of creature.

I think we all are and Habit?

Creature of habit, I meant.

Oh my god, did you guys hear that?

What I just said?

I found this workout class while doing research on TikTok.

It looked really fun.

I think it's just good to like push yourself to like try any things that like you wouldn't normally try.

And this is like a hybrid dance workout class.

I would not say I'm the best dancer.

If anything, I would actually say I probably am like the worst.

We'll see.

I have no idea.

I signed up last night before bed at 8pm and we're gonna go...

try it together i also want to try like a new

coffee shop today i want to try maybe like going to this fashion museum later

and just hang out with you guys so all right i should probably leave

i really stick to my same gym routine every day i

just go on the treadmill on an incline for like 45 minutes

so this was pretty polar opposite of what i usually do

which was the whole point the creators of this place tried

to make it sort of like a rave with the lighting and the music

fun

but i did find the choreography to be kind of harder

than i anticipated okay guys i just got out of my

class it was actually pretty hard i don't know why it

was harder than i expected my arms are very sore particularly i don't know

if that was supposed to happen or that's just me

but i had a lot of fun i actually made a friend in there at the end

and she told me a coffee shop to try around the

corner okay friend might be a stretch i wouldn't go that far but i did meet this girl

so I ended up at Paper Coffee.

I walked in and it was just so beautiful because it's in a hotel.

It kind of put me at peace.

Ironically, after that crazy rave workout, I think I needed this for my soul.

I also really needed this honey bear latte

that I had no idea existed because I always get the same vanilla latte every time, so I wanted to switch it up and I'm glad I did.

This was pretty good.

I liked it because it wasn't like too overly sweet and it's just such a nice little

The biggest form of delayed gratification, I think, is getting up early to work out.

I am being very dramatic, but I'm not one of those people that's an automatic morning person.

I don't like love waking up at 6 a .m.

I actually hate it.

In the moment, I hate it.

You know, I want to hit snooze and just go straight back to bed, but I feel so much better now.

It's only 10 30 a .m., and I just feel like I've already done so much today.

I showered, washed my hair, and I'm gonna

class was that I was like really nervous the whole time like kind of self -conscious about it

because I don't know why I couldn't like remember the sequence

because they kept changing the sequence

and I felt like I just like wasn't doing it right

so I met this girl she told me

that it was also her first time there like me

and she told me she's like honestly I was so nervous

that whole class like I felt like I was like messing everything up

and that made me feel better because I felt the same way the whole class

so to hear that like someone else was feeling the exact same way it

that like the workout made me feel better

when i was in the class i kind of just like look around

and i just assume that everyone's been there a million times like everyone knows what they're doing

but honestly it just goes to show

that people are really only focusing on themselves no one really

cares like what you're doing they're just trying to like keep

it together after i finish getting ready i'm gonna go straight to lunch because i'm so hungry.

And then I think I'm going to go to the fashion museum.

It's somewhere that I've been wanting to go for so long.

And I just, I'm trying to do things

that I've always like said I would do and like put them off because if I never do it at some point, it's just never going to happen.

I just did a little bit of light makeup for today.

Nothing too crazy.

I'm going to get dressed before It's absolutely freezing outside.

New Yorkers would say it's brick.

I say it's freezing.

I want to just do something really cute, cozy, and warm.

But I'm styling my outfit around the Coach Brooklyn bag, and I'm so excited to be working with Coach again on today's video.

You guys know how much I love Coach at this point.

I talk about them all the time.

I grew up buying stuff from them.

This is just such a perfect, essential, everyday bag.

I can fit so much stuff in here.

I bring a ton of stuff with me, and I got the medium size.

So beautiful, so sleek, so classy.

Building off of the bag, I wanna keep the outfit itself pretty neutral.

All right, option number one, I really love the black bag with this top.

Super comfy, cozy, casual, pretty much exactly what I was going for.

Okay, next option, again, a very comfy, cozy look.

I really don't know what I like better.

I'm thinking maybe the first sweater actually, 'cause I like the collar with it.

What do you guys think?

100

I have a vision coming together Give me a second.

101

I threw on some black jeans and then some black flats to go with it.

102

I like the black with the black bag.

103

I think it goes well.

104

And then for a coat, which I desperately need, I'm gonna throw this sort of dark olive green suede coat on.

105

This is gonna be closed very tight because it is so cold.

106

I chose this because I like how the black buttons kind of go with the bag.

107

So this is the final look.

108

What do we think?

109

My favorite part of this whole look is the bag.

110

How...

111

beautiful is this bag.

112

I just love it.

113

And I wanted to bring a little book with me because I wanted to read while I have lunch.

114

This is the book I've been reading.

115

I'm actually almost done with it.

116

I love how I can fit so much in this bag.

117

So I just love that I can bring everything in my Brooklyn bag.

118

everywhere I go.

119

Anyways, let's head out to lunch.

120

I am so hungry and excited to eat.

121

Hotel Chelsea just never disappoints.

122

It was one of the first places I went when I moved to New York.

123

It's so classical, Victorian, just so beautiful in there.

124

I could just observe and like stare at the architecture and decor for so long.

125

I ordered a $9 Diet Coke.

126

Did not know it was going to be $9 until I got the bill.

127

And then I also got this cheese plate with some jam.

128

You know, this was a special treat for me.

129

And then after I made my way to go to the museum, I did have to do a little bit of searching to find one that was open.

130

You guys saw I just left Chelsea Hotel, it was so beautiful.

131

Since I wanted to try new things today that I really like don't do often, I wanted to go to a museum.

132

So I'm in Chelsea.

133

I was gonna go to a fashion museum but it was closed.

134

That was also really sad.

135

I walked in and they like shook their head.

136

you should have known.

137

Instead of that place fit, I decided to go to Chelsea.

138

There's like a little street where there's tons of galleries and you can just like walk in gallery hop.

139

I've always wanted to do this.

140

So I'm very curious.

141

I've had a lot of people recommend this to me and I've just never like made the time.

142

So that's where I am right now.

143

I'm on the little street of galleries.

144

And I think you just like walk in I don't know

145

if you have to pay they obviously have rotating galleries with different pieces

146

and different exhibitions every so often

147

so I'm excited this is a bit spontaneous considering the one I was gonna go to was closed.

148

Hey guys, I'm back home.

149

I had a lot of fun today.

150

Ironically, it felt very romantic when I think about it.

151

Going to the Chelsea Hotel for brunch, looking at the gallery art, but hey, that's your sign to romanticize your life alone.

152

I think about a lot that I won't have alone time forever.

153

Like when I have kids and like a family, I won't have all of this time to myself.

154

And that makes me feel especially appreciative of the alone time that sometimes I feel lonely in.

155

And I try to remember that time that I have to myself because I know forever that won't be the case.

156

Down the line, I'll probably eventually have a family and be busier and just like won't have time like this.

157

So I try to really be grateful for it.

158

And my mom always tells me that.

159

She's like, enjoy your time now because when you have kids, you're gonna never be alone again.

160

And my mom is always right, I've realized.

161

Guys, I was just looking at tickets online

162

and really wanting to see the movie Housemates

163

because my mom told me she really loved it and I just like haven't been able to go.

164

I haven't found a time.

165

and I was just like, you know what?

166

Why don't I just go tonight?

167

Like I could easily go in like an hour.

168

And there's a showing.

169

So I think I'm gonna go to the movie theater by myself.

170

Sounds kind of fun, honestly.

171

I did this once before and I enjoyed it.

172

There's a showing in an hour exactly i mean at this

173

point my roommate's gone my boyfriend's working this last minute those

174

are usually the only two people who can like go with me to see something

175

that last minute because my other friends like live a little further

176

so i think i might just like go why not you

177

know is this kind of crazy this is me this is My version of being spontaneous, booking a movie by myself at the theater.

178

Wow.

179

I bought the ticket.

180

So I also bought popcorn and a drink ahead of time.

181

So I'm really, I'm really like prepped for this.

182

Tonight's a leftover type of night because I have them in my fridge and it's It's financially responsible.

183

I have sweet potato and chicken.

184

Probably throw together like a little salad or something.

185

And a salad I did indeed make.

186

Why am I talking like this?

187

I don't know.

188

If you guys watched my recent blog, you know I've been hooked on this new salad with my obsessive repeating food personality.

189

I like to eat the same things.

190

And then I went to the movies, which was so fun.

191

I did not think it was gonna be this fun to go by myself, but I really enjoyed it.

192

And honestly, if you're watching this, please let this be your sign to go to the movies by yourself.

193

I can't really explain why, what's so fun about it.

194

I don't know.

195

Something about it, it's kind of like weirdly comforting.

196

All right guys, I'm back home in my bed.

197

I have some thoughts.

198

I enjoyed going alone to the movies.

199

It's actually like the perfect most ideal activity to do by yourself because you are just like watching something happen.

200

You don't need someone to converse with.

201

Yes, of course it is nice.

202

to debrief after the movie with someone.

203

I think that's what I'm missing right now.

204

I have no one to talk to about it.

205

So that's why I'm talking to you guys.

206

If you haven't seen it yet, I would recommend you go see it.

207

I actually really liked it.

208

Anyways, I love you guys so much.

209

Thanks for spending the day with me.

210

We did some things that I don't usually do and I think it's good to like break out of your routine sometimes, especially when you're kind of in a rut.

211

So maybe you take this as your sign to do that and try new things every once in a while.

212

I feel like it's so easy to get comfortable in your everyday activities and your everyday spots.

213

So I am going to put a link to the Coach Brooklyn bag

214

that I was wearing throughout this video in the description.

215

So if you want to check it out, it's such a good bag.

216

Love you guys.

217

See you in my next vlog.

218

Bye!

¿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.
