Be able to jump back in bed right now Look guys, it's Penny.
2
I woke up with a headache, so I'm just gonna like hold this here and hope it does something.
3
I am out of my favorite eye cream.
4
I wouldn't recommend you an expensive product unless I thought it was truly worth your money the SkinCeuticals Age Advanced Eye
5
See the glow on my under eyes?
6
Yeah, that's my eye cream.
7
It is so, so good.
8
I forgot that I wanted to use these and I put eye cream on.
9
Thank you.
10
Mm -hmm.
11
So I would say this isn't an outfit.
12
I kind of like it.
13
Hi friends, welcome back to the vlogs or welcome to my channel
14
if you're new here I am going to give you the
15
most like transparent unplanned version of my day We're just gonna literally spend a random Thursday together
16
because I do feel like sometimes especially over like the last year and a half I Gotten into this.
17
I guess you could say habit of doing certain things for the vlogs outfit when I'm vlogging, 'cause I'm like, I want it to be,
18
not interesting, but like, presentable in a way, you know?
19
Like, I am putting myself on the internet, like, I want to be presentable to an extent.
20
I love watching vlogs that are like the messiest version of people's selves.
21
Just in like a "I'm literally a fly on the wall watching their life" kind of a way.
22
And I have been loving those YouTube videos so much more.
23
First thing on the list is Penny has a vet appointment in 40 minutes.
24
The vet is only five minutes away from here.
25
Thank God.
26
So I'm trying to time this correctly.
27
I need to feed her.
28
But I also want to do a little bit of makeup because I did self tan last night.
29
I don't even know if you can tell.
30
I want to feel a little bit cute.
31
However, It's day three of my period.
32
So this is my day three of my period fit.
33
It is An oversized Spurs tee and these super cute sweat shorts that I got from ASOS.
34
Oh my gosh, I just realized it's actually giving Adam Sandler, but I'm here for it.
35
I love it so much.
36
I'm so comfortable, but I also feel cute.
37
I literally planned this outfit last night in my head.
38
It probably doesn't look like it.
39
No one's gonna think I planned this outfit purposely.
40
Go Spurs!
41
I don't care what you say, they're my champions.
42
We don't have much, but we have them, so.
43
I'm proud of them.
44
That was not the point of this clip.
45
Penny has a bell appointment in 40 minutes, so I'm gonna make her food.
46
feed her, Renee walked her this morning.
47
So either me or him or both of us have been getting up extra early to take Penny on her
48
like 30 to 45 minute walk, 'cause
49
None of y 'all told me that golden retriever puppies are like tiny dinosaurs
50
that run around your home with the most energy and I can't control it.
51
Like I can't keep up.
52
Close.
53
Penny started her period.
54
Which like when I tell you I almost cried because of how overwhelmed I got in that moment when I realized
55
that she was going into heat But then I got a grip on myself and I was like, you can do this.
56
I usually spay my girl dogs as soon as I get them.
57
But I've been seeing research that it's good to wait to...
58
heat cycles for female goldens so that way their growth plates can close.
59
So it just became a whole other thing.
60
But I'm really happy that she wasn't on the street for that because that would have been bad.
61
And I will give you guys some penny updates throughout the video.
62
Right now she's in her crate, but I'm going to make her breakfast, feed her and then make my breakfast, which is just going to be toast and some coffee, but I'm dying for a coffee.
63
I woke up with a headache and I need a coffee.
64
Oh I'm going to go to the next one.
65
Today on the menu for Penny we have kibble, chicken thighs, carrots, and a little bit of Greek yogurt.
66
Thank you.
67
Do you notice anything different?
68
If you don't, it might be because you're new to the channel, but there's usually a big dining room table there.
69
But we sold it!
70
So, the new one, exciting news, actually supposed to get here today.
71
The issue with the table was it was the first thing I ever bought for the house.
72
When this house was empty and I still lived at my apartment, we were like, "You know what?
73
We want a huge dining table." Because that's just what you do when you get a house, right?
74
Yeah.
75
Someone should have told me that that's not what you do when you have a very small dining room.
76
So it has just for the longest time been something that we both actively dislike.
77
It was just way too big for the space.
78
So the new one gets here today, I don't have chairs ordered.
79
so we're just getting a table.
80
but it's a starting point and I'm super excited.
81
Toast and coffee.
82
Bye.
83
we finished at the vet i wouldn't call it a fail
84
penny i would say it's a good first step she wasn't
85
able to get her vaccines they said she was too scared
86
she was too stressed out they didn't want to like force it on her
87
and have to like hold her down
88
so we're gonna try it again tomorrow with some gabapentin to help she has anxiety of people
89
but to be fair
90
when we found her the guy the The property manager where she was found said
91
that he had been shooing her away for a week, which breaks my heart.
92
if that's your experience with people.
93
you're gonna be terrified of people, you're not gonna trust people.
94
We're trying to socialize her and like she does really well.
95
in like seeing people like she's not nervous of them but i understand why them trying to hold her down, restrain her would freak her out we're making a stop at Petco,
96
Renee ran in to get her some kibble
97
So we're just kind of in like a stuck situation where I want to socialize her but we have to wait.
98
and so the vet is like some of her first like people experiences with us.
99
It just makes me super sad.
100
Honestly.
101
It's not like discouraging because I know she can do it.
102
Our cats were all feral and now they love people.
103
So as much as like I'm sure people would want to say
104
because I talked to a dog trainer that was like she'll probably never be like a normal dog.
105
Like she'll probably never be socialized.
106
Which like I don't know why a trainer would tell me that.
107
But anyways, I'm not going to give up on her.
108
I have experience with our cat Ruby.
109
hated people.
110
She actually, unfortunately, at her first vet appointment sent a tech to the hospital
111
because she like tried to bite her and scratch her because she was terrified.
112
And now the vets are like, "She's literally done a 180.
113
Like, she's a completely different cat.
114
She loves people." And we just had to love on her for months.
115
and like show her that people aren't scary and that the world isn't scary and no one's trying to hurt her.
116
I just don't think it's true that she is like always gonna hate people.
117
I think it's her third week indoors.
118
I don't know what she experienced outside.
119
I don't know how long she was outside.
120
I know nothing about Penny's first eight months of life.
121
and I don't believe that that defines her.
122
I believe that you can do it and
123
that we're going to show you that people are really nice and it's okay if you don't like the vet.
124
You don't have to like them but they're not going to hurt you.
125
It's a work in progress but it's okay.
126
It's only week three like I said and I've done a lot of research
127
and like I've talked to some trainers and some people have just been like be super patient with her.
128
I remember like even feeling this way kind of with the cats.
129
I don't think I ever really talked about it but the cats weren't comfortable
130
comfortable like that's
131
when i felt like they became our cats i don't know i refuse to believe what people say can
132
or can't be done you're just gonna have to learn how to trust
133
and we're gonna teach you how and we're gonna take it slow
134
and it's gonna be okay and before you know it we'll be at parks
135
and at malls and we'll go to the coffee shop together and we're gonna do all these things But we got it.
136
Thank you.
137
Oh I get hydration headaches sometimes during the summer so I've been liking the Promix salted raspberry electrolytes. And they're really pretty.
138
Thank you.
139
Stay, Penny stay, stay, good stay you
140
A 16 ounce iced latte with almond milk.
141
16 ounce of a pencil and say what?
142
- Almond milk, anything else for you?
143
- That's it.
144
Thank you.
145
Thank you.
146
You too.
147
I love when baristas are nice.
148
It like genuinely makes my day better
149
because I'm already excited to go get my coffee and then
150
when they're nice to me I'm like you just made this way better experience The local cafe is here.
151
It's tough to find a good one.
152
While we're here, let's just discuss the elephant in the room.
153
Olivia Rodrigo's new album.
154
What do you guys think?
155
I'm gonna tell you my top three favorite tracks.
156
One, Honey Bee.
157
I just really, my favorite song on Harry's album is Coming Up Roses.
158
I feel like that is like another version of Coming Up Roses and they give the same feeling.
159
It's like a love song, but it's like kind of gut -wrenching in a way.
160
Like, I don't know.
161
I don't know how to explain it.
162
And then second, Stupid Song, third, The Cure, or What's Wrong With Me.
163
I really like What's Wrong With Me.
164
But on the topic of artists that I love, guys, tomorrow is literally coronation day.
165
It's like one of the best days ever, besides my wedding.
166
I am like second most excited for tomorrow.
167
I am going to the Eternal Sunshine Tour. will have already been.
168
But Ariana Grande, that is my girl since Honeymoon Avenue.
169
I have been on it.
170
10 years later, I'm finally getting to see her live.
171
I lost the Ticketmaster battle, but my mom and my fiance surprised me with tickets to the Eternal Sunshine Tour resale.
172
And honestly, I was getting super nervous.
173
They bought them through StubHub.
174
Basically, to StubHub and then StubHub delivers them to you digitally,
175
but they can do it up until like two hours before the event.
176
And last night at midnight, I was on StubHub and my tickets still weren't like delivered.
177
And I was like, oh my God, is this a scam?
178
One, two, am I, do I even have tickets?
179
And then I started panicking because I was like, oh my God, if I don't have tickets, like I'm going to buy tickets.
180
Like at this point, my mind is so set on going, like I am going to go.
181
And I specifically picked tomorrow's date because it's her birthday.
182
And I like want to see her perform on her birthday.
183
I think that's going to be such a special experience.
184
And like when I tell you every word by memory every word by memory Thank you.
185
Sure.
186
- These are my selections at Chick -fil -A.
187
There will always be something so comforting to me about just spending time by myself eating in my car.
188
I don't know what it is.
189
My mom and I used to have like mother -daughter dates when I was young, eating Chick -fil -A in the car.
190
Before like going into Target.
191
And it is like some of my favorite comfort memories with her.
192
and now I just do it by myself and I love it.
193
And honestly, you don't have to look too far for a solo date sometimes.
194
it really can be as simple as watching your favorite youtubers.
195
while you eat some good food in your car.
196
It's too hot to even move.
197
Everyone should just stay inside for the next two months.
198
Oh
199
I'm going to go to the next one.
200
Oh I just had the cutest interaction.
201
It literally made my entire day.
202
I met a subscriber at Brandy Melville and I love that because Brandy girls are like the cutest girls.
203
And we took a picture and it was so freaking cute.
204
So Miranda, if you're watching this vlog, it's for you.
205
Also, I stopped to get lemon gelato. Because it's hot.
206
Dinner not made by me Made by men Eating on my makeshift dining table
207
Which is just my bar cart because the dining table is in the garage, but at least it got delivered.
208
Oh - What is this?
209
- The mailbox over there.
210
Bye.
211
Thank you.
212
you Thank you.
213
you you Thank you.
214
do It is a few nights later, so I fell asleep before I ended this vlog a few days ago.
215
but the good thing is is
216
that my life doesn't vary too much every night pretty much looks the same for me
217
and every evening i'm just gonna vlog some of tonight i just hate not ending my vlogs
218
and i love vlogging my evenings so when i like fall asleep or don't get to do them.
219
it feels incomplete to me it is pretty late though already i am About to go to sleep.
220
I just got back from a really short trip today also Ignore the pimple cream.
221
So I was traveling all day, guys, oh my gosh.
222
Wait, we just need to talk about this really quick.
223
I missed my-- freaking flight.
224
And it was like the most
225
honestly just like humbling embarrassing experience because it was one of those where you sprint through the airport.
226
I hadn't done that in so long.
227
I don't think I've ever actually done that by myself Basically, I was flying home from Denver.
228
It just started off bad.
229
I had like 20 minutes to make my flight home.
230
The shuttle was broken so I couldn't get to the other terminal.
231
It took forever.
232
So the gate I was supposed to go to was at like the back part of the airport.
233
the last terminal and like just It was honestly like a remote location from the airport.
234
I don't know why I get placed there sometimes.
235
So I run, I sprint.
236
full speed because by the time I get off the shuttle, I can tell I'm barely gonna make it or I'm not gonna make it.
237
I ran up several flights of stairs with my carry -on.
238
I get there It says Rio de Janeiro on the screen.
239
So I go and ask for for the gate to San Antonio and the guy's like, back through the tunnel, back down the escalator as you came up
240
it changed and it didn't update on my phone
241
and honestly I should have checked the screens
242
but usually my phone will automatically update
243
and I felt like I didn't have time
244
and it's never happened to where like the one on my phone is wrong
245
but it would happen to me today so I sprint back from where I just ran through.
246
So irritated, just humiliating.
247
realization once I get there it's that the flight was closed and I could see them driving off in the plane.
248
All that to say I've had a very long day
249
and I'm very tired and I am
250
so happy to be back in my bed even if it was just two days away.
251
This is truly My happy place also, I don't know if I've given you guys a tour of I my sleeping situation.
252
These sheets are Brooklyn.
253
I have my Aspen bear.
254
Obviously bought him in Aspen.
255
I have Clarice that I sleep with every single night.
256
Clarice was Lola's favorite toy, you can see.
257
her little chewing leftovers on Clarice's bow.
258
Yeah.
259
She's very special to me.
260
And I started a new book today.
261
I actually got it in the airport.
262
It is It could have been Her by Lisa Jewel.
263
Here's the thing.
264
I did a little mini read -a -thon on Instagram I read for eight hours.
265
I'm telling you that the fun in between videos live on the other socials.
266
So I'll link them down below.
267
I finished yesteryear rated at four stars.
268
I thought it was good.
269
And I thought it was really interesting.
270
I love how unique the concept was.
271
And I started half a soul.
272
I got like five pages into that and then couldn't really tell if I was liking it or not.
273
And then I went on a flight.
274
I forgot to take it with me.
275
I went looking for the new Carly fortune book because I felt like they would have that at the airport bookstores.
276
Lisa Jewel's new book, which she is one of the first authors, I started reading.
277
weirdly in my adulthood because
278
she writes mystery and thriller and i started reading mystery and thriller first and so i've kind of just read her
279
like releases as they come out.
280
I started with the family upstairs.
281
I really Honestly didn't like that one, but then I read a few more from her.
282
None of this is true.
283
And there was one other I forgot the name, but I'll put the picture of it on the screen.
284
Her books have a certain eeriness to them
285
that I really really like like the mystery feels creepy and it just feels like
286
uncomfortable and disturbing in a way things are normal, but something's just not right and and it's not sitting right with you and I love love love that.
287
I decided to pick this up.
288
I am 20 - oh I'm 35 pages in.
289
um it's obviously too early to tell how much i'm gonna love it
290
but i already like the eeriness of it it's it's already giving me that like spookiness that her writing gives me.
291
It's about a woman who in short finds a dog that belongs to a girl that just recently went missing.
292
And she's like weirdly connected to this missing person slash missing dog.
293
from like a really weird incident she had Almost probably 20 years back, so it's good so far.
294
I do like it.
295
It has hooked my attention, so I'm hoping it stays that way.
296
I wanted to end this video and say thank you so much for watching.
297
I love y 'all so much.
298
Thank you for hanging out with me, spending a very mundane day in my life with me.
299
Good night, friends.
300
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.
