71
Obviously, all of my childhood memories just resonate with that house.
72
It's like a feeling I get every time I come home, even to this day.

So the best team wins.

Okay.
104
What does that mean?
105
Good morning, guys.
106
It's Sunday.
107
I woke up this morning and I went to church with my family and now it's noon.
108
My family is kind of dispersed for a little bit.
109
We're going to go to my older brother's house later.
110
I have an older brother.
111
Do you guys know this?
112
I feel like so many people don't know that I have an older brother.
113
And one of my favorite things to do when I'm home is drive around, get coffee at a drive-thru, and listen to music.
114
And then maybe go to the Mall of America.
115
Sort of where my head's at.
116
We'll see kind of what ends up happening.
117
I don't really know.
118
To those of you who don't know what Caribou is, I'm about to introduce you.
119
The real ones know who have watched me for years that I used to hate coffee.
120
I hated coffee to such an extent that I feel like it was almost part of my personality.
121
Anyways, I've turned a new leaf.
122
You know I love coffee now, so I really appreciate what Caribou has to offer now that I can enjoy it.
123
Could I do an iced medium latte with skim milk?
124
I just think the coffee here is pretty good.
125
My grandpa always used to love it, and I was like, why?
126
I don't want to go to Caribou.
127
And now I feel bad because, like, he was right all along.
128
Oh, my credit card is just flashing out so everyone can use it.
129
Usually what I get from here is an iced vanilla crafted press with skim milk and a scoop of malt.
130
Malt makes it so good.
131
Thank you.
132
I'm putting my usual order on the screen for you guys because if you live in Minnesota or the Midwest, I think they have these in the Midwest, you need to try my go-to.
133
Anyways, today I was boring.
134
I just got a vanilla latte because I was in the mood.
135
It's always dessert dungeon for me when I'm home. So cheers.
136
Summer in Minnesota is the best.
137
Every time I go home, I have to go to the Mall of America at least once.
138
By the way, the best thing that the Mall of America ever opened was Skims.
139
When I found out they were putting this in there, I was so happy.
140
I stopped there, Aritzia, a few stores.
141
Okay, update.
142
I've been pretty good.
143
I only got one thing from Skims.
144
It's their t-shirt.
145
I literally wore mine all the time until I lost it.
146
So I feel like I could justify that.
147
I don't know I don't know if I was late to this, but the Lululemon here has a cafe where they have the best smoothies.
148
So it's like a good little healthy shopping snack.
149
At this point, like, friggin and Erewhon, I don't even care.
150
I just want to get the Lululemon smoothie.
151
Okay, okay.
152
Okay, what do I have?
153
Hey, guys!
154
Hey there.
155
I'm with my older brother, Ryan.
156
That's me.
157
I don't think that they know about you.
158
I'm Ryan.
159
I'm Cindy's brother.
160
I live in Minnesota. And he's a chef.
161
Look what he just made us.
162
Wow. So homemade.
163
Thank you.
164
So you made the dough yourself.
165
Oh yeah.
166
All by myself.
167
Update.
168
I changed into a pickleball outfit.
169
As some of you guys know, I used to be an avid pickleball hater.
170
And now somehow I love it.
171
It's kind of like the coffee thing.
172
I used to like hate both of these things.
173
Is this like me maturing?
174
I don't know.
175
My family and I love to play it together.
176
It's like such a fun family activity for us.
177
And you already know what I'm about to say.
178
I forgot an outro.
179
Please let me know if you do have any videos you want to see.
180
I know I say this sometimes, but I really do read the comments.
181
And I'll see you guys in my next vlog.
182

| Estructura | En el vídeo |
|---|---|
| “Used to” used to + verbo — un hábito o estado pasado que ya no es cierto | used to hate · used to love · used to be |

¿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.
