1
So recently I went to New York City for the first time in my life.
2
We went because Henry really wanted to go to this EDM music festival.
3
I love the techno trolls.
4
One more time.
5
Bad representation of EDM.
6
But you know, I've never been to American Big City.
7
You'd think like, oh, it's so scary.
8
There's so many stereotypes and tweakers.
9
And I had a lot of like expectations of like the rat man and weird in New York.
10
So it must be crazy.
11
Even my dad would tell me and my mom like, oh, it's scary.
12
Don't go there.
13
It was the most sane and normal and comfortable experience I've ever had.
14
We went to Times Square and it was so crusty and bright just like it is on TV.
15
And we got to go to where the Twin Towers used to be.
16
And there was a whole lot of nothing.
17
And that was so fun.
18
And then we got to try like
19
New York pizza and you would think, oh, pizza is pizza.
20
You know, how good can it be?
21
Oh my God, the Ninja Turtles knew what's up.
22
It was so good.
23
All the stereotypes of New York that I had in my head, like it vanished in the public transport too.
24
Like it wasn't that dirty.
25
It was just like a few tweakers, but like that was normal, you know, it was normal.
26
And we got to see the New York sewer grates.
27
The steam is coming out and all.
28
It looks so cool and like - WAH!
29
What is that?
30
Is that Ponchim from the new hit game
31
Clash of Critters?
32
Huh?
33
My character design!
34
Come here!
35
Clash of Critters is a free -to -play mobile game, combining tower defense and monster catching and raising in the cutest way possible.
36
You go on an adventure with these critters called Tatari, fighting off waves of enemies called Zobos across the world map.
37
I've been playing all summer and it's genuinely one of my favorite pastimes on the go during trips, and while waiting for my animations to render.
38
Even when I have to work, they can still fight battles all on their own.
39
And I actually love these Tataru and their designs, especially Punch -Hip and his little ass -shaking move that deals AoE damage and summons clones.
40
If that sounds familiar, that's
41
because Lil' Guy literally learned from a Journey to the West comic book that he stole from a tourist.
42
What a king.
43
There are over 100 original Tataru to collect, so you'll definitely find your emotional support companion in no time!
44
Also, I really appreciate that when the critters evolve, maybe you prefer the baby look than the angsty teen look.
45
And guess what?
46
You can change their appearance to stay baby forever!
47
S tier.
48
Every game should be doing this.
49
Clash of Critters is available both on Android and iOS.

52
Now back to New York City.
53
So this story is not about any of the good shit though.
54
All the good stuff I told you, forget about it.
55
This story is about my very last day at New York in the hotel room.
56
We're like, wow, we had so much nice experiences.
57
Can't wait to fly back home and experience our normal everyday lives again.
58
That's not in New York.
59
We go to sleep.
60
I vaguely having a dream where I'm like half asleep, half awake,
61
where someone is begging for their life in the dream someone's going please please
62
i'm begging please i'll do anything please i'm like half asleep
63

and i hear the guy please please i'll do anything please i'm begging he's repeating like those phrases over and over
69
and over again i'm terrified what what do you do in
70
this situation do you call the police do you call them i don't know
71
so like i come to a conclusion you know it's none of my business i should ignore it
72
and close my eyes i cannot see please please
73
but i can sure as hell hear
74
because he keeps fucking going for like six more minutes and he's he's starting to add more lore into it he's like
75
Please I have a wife.
76
Oh you have a wife like boss boss who's boss?
77
Where did he come from?
78
No one else is talking in the hallway
79
So I can tell he's on his phone or like talking to someone through a door
80
This isn't the New York experience I was expecting like about seven minutes
81
I was just laying in bed staring at the door and one eye open and then
82
Henry's head slowly Did you hear that?
83
Did you hear that?
84
I'm not joking right now.
85
I immediately rode over, grabbed my phone, and just started recording.
86
I need to make sure I'm not crazy.
87
We're just laying in bed, waiting for something to happen.
88
Because what do you do?
89
Like, genuinely, what do you do?
90
Like I'm too scared to even look at the peephole.
91
What if like someone's out there?
92
You saw what happened.
93
You died now.
94
Dude, I can't go back home.
95
I can't be stuck in New York.
96
We look at the clock.
97
It is 6 a .m.
98
He should not be out and about in the hallway being this loud, right?
99
And as he's like still going, I just hear like a door slam next door and a man comes out.
100
What the f* are you doing, man?
101
Do you have any idea what time it is?
102
And the guy's just like, I'm so sorry.
103
I'm just calling my friend.
104
It's a friend now?
105
I thought it was your boss. And then...
106
Closes the door.
107
And then you just hear...
108
Please.
109
He's still there!
110
That's how paper -thin the walls are.
111
And then he continues even longer until...
112
We hear another door open in the hallway.
113
It's someone who sounds like security.
114
No, no, no. Okay.
115
Why are you closed?
116
I'm starting.
117
No. It's fine.
118
I don't look like I either.
119
I will guess.
120
I guess, I guess, yes, yes, yes.
121
What's your rule number?
122
Number two.
123
What's your rule?
124
That's my friend.
125
Who's the friend of yours?
126
The guy.
127
What guy?
128
The one who's on the side of the internet. Which one?
129
I don't know.
130
Eventually, I think the issue got de -escalated, the conversation got quieter and quieter, and it sounded like he got escorted by security.
131
I think our neighbors called them up in the neighborhood.
132
Everything else about New York was so dandy so fine
133
Why on the very last day of our hotel stay did this have to happen?
134
And when I told this story to my friends in VC Did someone that he knows like get kidnapped?
135
That would explain the reason why he doesn't know where his
136
friend's room is He could have been involved in a hostage situation
137
Could have been on the phone with a very powerful group of people
138
Maybe it was one of those things where like he borrowed money from someone uh shady
139
and like negotiations fell through and he's begging to get back in the room to have another chance
140
But they're not letting him back in.
141
I don't know.
142
I hope whatever happened to that guy.
143
I hope he's genuinely okay I hope he sees his family
144
and I hope his problems that he was having that night genuinely get solved
145
But like can you not scare me next time, please?
146
I was so scared I wanted to pee so bad, but I couldn't get out of bed
147
So if you're from New York or just anyone who has any idea of what could be going on, please let me know what you think.
148
Let me know your ideas and guesses so I'm not alone in this.
149
Because it's been keeping me up at night.

Pronunciación a tener en cuenta
El hablante usa 39 contracciones y formas reducidas, como I'm, don't, can't. Dilas en su forma corta, tal como las oyes.

- /v/ — no es /b/: los dientes tocan el labio inferior: everyday /ˈɛvɹiˌdeɪ/, adventure /ədˈvɛn.t͡ʃə/, solve /sɒlv/, evolve /ɪˈvɑlv/, vaguely /ˈveɪɡli/
- /z/ — sonora, no /s/: representation /ˌɹɛp.ɹə.zɛnˈteɪ.ʃən/, phrase /ˈfɹeɪ̯z/

¿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.
