Shadowing Practice: things i'm not buying this fall - Learn English Speaking with Video

Hi guys, let's talk about the things that I won't be buying this fall.

Number one, seasonal drinks.

Are you even surprised?

Let me just see what Starbucks has on their menu right now for seasonal drinks.

I feel like they are a very good indicator for what seasonal drinks are trending right now.

Oh my gosh, guys, they even have a trending page.

Okay, here we have iced pumpkin cream chai, iced pecan crunch latte, pecan crunch latte,

iced banana bread matcha iced banana bread chai iced chider girl

all of these sound terrible to me i'm sorry these sound terrible

and do they have the pumpkin the classic pumpkin spice latte

yes pumpkin spice is back guys pumpkin cream shaken espresso pumpkin

cream chai oh my i'm about to cream with all these

cream lattes pumpkin spice chai latte like i will not be buying any of these this fall

and they are seasonal drinks they will come time

and time again we're gonna see it next year

so is anyone surprised like no

and you already know what a pumpkin spice latte tastes like i already know what a pumpkin spice tastes like

and i know what chai tastes like i don't need to

know what a pumpkin cream chai chider cream extra cream latte tastes like okay

so i will not be buying seasonal drinks this fall

if anything i'll make them at home

and i feel like it'll be a lot less crazy than the ones we're buying out in the cafes.

And of course, I'll indulge in the season.

I might buy one here and there at a cafe that actually makes a good seasonal drink.

But other than that, I will not be indulging in seasonal drinks.

I'm good with just my coffee, matcha here and there, a tea.

Like, I like to keep it basic and simple.

I'm sorry, guys.

Number two, anti -blush and dark lipsticks.

So to explain what anti -blush is, it's this makeup trend

that replaces brighter red toned blush with a more neutral warmer soft tone blush

that adds warmth and dimension to your cheek without it being bright

or pink so it's supposed to be in between like natural contour bronzer

and a flush of the face and girl you're probably thinking what the hell

because I'm thinking what the hell they're just making anything a trend these days

so I guess what they're trying to sell are these neutral toned blushes

that add this effect but what's the difference between this

and contour this

and a bronzer I feel like you could pretty much find

any neutral toned palette even your eyeshadow for instance you could

use your eyeshadow as an anti -blush girl I don't need

to buy another product to have anti -blush on my face okay especially now

that it's going into fall I feel like more people will

want to bring out the more neutral tones the cooler tones

darker tones yeah like you might be tempted to go out

and buy an anti -blush with this trend that's going on

but just look at your makeup collection like I literally have makeup from five years ago

that I still have not hit pan on I'm gonna use up my makeup first before I go

and buy an anti -blush and the same goes for dark lipsticks I have

so many lip glosses and lipsticks that I've accumulated over the years

and they take a lot longer to finish than you might

think literally I still have some lipsticks from like three four

five years ago like I should probably throw them out

but I feel bad so I'm gonna try and finish them before I throw them out and buy some new lipsticks.

I don't need a new dark lipstick.

I don't need a new anti -blush.

I'm just going to use what I have in my collection already.

If I want to darken up my blush, maybe I'll use a bronzer or I'll mix things or I'll use a different technique.

I don't know.

Like I'm not going to get an anti -blush or dark lipstick.

Number three, scented candles or perfumes for fall.

I don't want to buy scented candles or perfumes just

because I know it'll take up space

and i hate the idea of buying something just

because of the season i think it's a great time for people to push things onto you

because it's like oh like you want to smell like vanilla you want to smell like cinnamon

and apple pie and wood and earth

and it's fall you should you should smell like this no girl no i don't i have the scents

that i already like and i'm going to continue wearing them into the fall i feel like

if i were to buy more scented candles it would just take up more space

and candles take a long time to burn like i would

have to really be into candles to continue using a candle

and make sure

that i use it to the end i still have candles from two years ago three years ago

and i still have not finished them unless i'm really trying

to embody christian girl fall i will not be indulging in buying new candles

or perfumes just for fall and these scents associated with fall are usually like a sweet vanilla cinnamon.

I'm sure you can find those scents in your regular perfume collection already.

They are very generic broad scents.

I don't need the latest apple pie crisp vanilla cinnamon candle to feel like fall.

I can look outside and see the leaves changing to know that fall is here.

Okay number four Uggs slash tall Uggs.

I've been seeing that tall uggs are trending

these days for fall i think

that uggs are very cute don't get me wrong i love the look of uggs

but i live in vancouver and it rains a lot here

and going into the fall i know

that the rain will be a lot heavier

and there will be more days of rain so just having uggs

and wearing uggs outside is just not practical i think what's more practical are having rain boots

which i think are also cute

and trending for the fall I wouldn't invest my money into a pair of shoes

that I could only wear like two months out of the

year they can be very warm I used to have Uggs I'm

so sad that I donated them who would have known

that Uggs would be trending again I don't I didn't know

13 year old me didn't know I thought they were chuggy

at the time I thought they were cute for like a year

and then 13 year old me decided they were suddenly cringe

100

so I donated it

101

if I were to invest in a pair of boots it would not be boots

102

that i could only wear two months out of the year number five the new iphone 18 pro

103

and the duo i don't this goes to show i don't

104

even know what they're releasing anymore i don't keep up with the updates

105

and the releases of apple

106

because i don't care frankly i don't care i don't care

107

i recently upgraded my phone from an iphone 11 pro

108

which i got in 2019 so I had it for seven years

109

and I recently upgraded it last year to an iPhone 14 pro my 14 pro is used

110

so I do not keep up with the updates and the releases

111

and whatever I feel like my phone my 14 pro used

112

is good enough like it's really it does everything it's supposed

113

to do I can call people I can text people I

114

can take cute pictures I can go on Instagram reels I can watch youtube i can literally do everything

115

that the 18 pro can do and

116

that i would probably use the 18 pro for

117

so why don't i just use the 14 pro like it really does make no difference

118

so yeah the next time i upgrade my phone will probably be in the next seven years probably i hope

119

so i love having my items for a long time okay number six suede jackets suede that's

120

so fun to say i've also been seeing suede jackets as

121

a trend i do love the look of them i i think they're

122

so cute but again i live in raincouver

123

so i would not be able to upkeep a suede jacket

124

and they are expensive i i think i've seen some for

125

like 600 yeah like suede jackets at the minimum at the

126

minimum on sale are already like 60 70 dollars canadian

127

so i feel like

128

if i were to invest my money in a jacket it better be something

129

that I can keep for a long time and

130

that I can maintain and right now in this season of my life I have no time

131

or care to care for a suede jacket

132

because that's a lot of upkeep and yeah it rains a lot

133

and then it's gonna snow here

134

so why would I have a suede jacket you tell me

135

I don't know you want to convince me try try and so

136

if I do have the craving for a suede jacket this

137

fall I think I can just use another jacket with the same silhouette

138

or color because suede is usually brown like this the suede jackets I've seen

139

that are trending are brown

140

so I'll just pick a brown jacket yeah anyway I wouldn't even thrift a suede jacket

141

because it's such an investment I took home a suede bag from the thrift store one day

142

and I had to clean the shit out of it like I had to clean it down okay

143

and the suede still is not in perfect condition it's just

144

so finicky so if I were to thrift a suede jacket from the thrift store

145

and then take it home and try to clean it

146

and maintain it

147

and take care of it like it's a lot of work like yes it may be $20

148

but the time

149

and effort I put into maintaining it after crazy work crazy

150

work okay number seven mugs fall is the perfect time to

151

have a mug in your little sleeve hands a little paw hands and

152

sip on something yummy and vanilla and cinnamon

153

and apple pipe sip on your pumpkin spice latte in your

154

mug in your mug your fall mug just use a damn

155

cup just use just use any any damn cup please i

156

have not bought cups since i don't even remember the last

157

time i bought a cup i think i recently bought some clear cups from ikea

158

but even then i try not to buy any liquid holding thing

159

because there are literally

160

so many ways to hold a drink okay you have your

161

awalas for the water the tumblers the mugs the insulated cups the glasses

162

and mugs and mugs

163

and mugs i'm sure you have a mug i'm sure you

164

i'm sure you have a mug in your house okay i don't need another mug again it takes up space.

165

I am in the business of having space and not having clutter.

166

okay so i will not be buying mugs i know

167

that there are

168

so many decorative fall mugs to get you in the season drink your pumpkin spice latte

169

and you don't need it you don't need it you don't

170

need it the only mug i'm getting this fall is the one on my face

171

okay number eight press on nails oh press on nails i

172

used to be a victim yes i used to be a victim

173

but not anymore i used to get press on nails

174

because i had the thought

175

that they were reusable i could switch up my nails anytime

176

i'm fickle i don't want to commit to just one thing

177

but i realized

178

that they are actually very hard to reuse they pop off

179

at any given time they are just a pain to store like i have to store them

180

and where where will i store them i don't know i don't know

181

because i mean yeah it doesn't really take up that much space

182

but i would rather not have it and not think about how to store

183

and how to maintain and how to upkeep

184

and pay the price of getting a gel polish

185

and just committing two to three weeks yes it's a little bit more expensive

186

and i know that press on nails have a time

187

and place for everything

188

but again i think i'm good i think i'm good i'm

189

just gonna stick to the regular gel polish i don't have

190

to worry about these ones popping off yes they get chipped

191

and whatever and whatnot but i can deal with

192

that better than I can deal with a press -on nail popping off in the middle of the street

193

and me frantically looking for where the fuck my nail went

194

so yeah these are my these are my nails for the

195

fall cute right purple purple I love purple is my favorite color

196

so yeah I feel like these are very fall very cute

197

and I'm happy with these for the next few weeks until I change it into another color

198

or i let it grow out like i usually do

199

and i just ignore it so yeah unless i have an event

200

or something i think having one or two press on nails are good um

201

but stocking up on press on nails is

202

it's not for me it's not for me okay number nine

203

fall flavored body lotion we are seeing the vanillas the cinnamons

204

the apple pie pumpkin spice eos body lotion i will not be buying

205

that and i have dry skin i have dry skin i'm slathering on body lotion body oil every day

206

but do i want to be smelling like a pumpkin spice latte

207

so that starbucks could sell me no no i am happy with the scents

208

that i have and if they sell it in like you know a smaller version sure

209

but even then i don't really like using a lot of

210

fragrance on my body i try to keep it neutral i try to keep the scents neutral on my body

211

because i know that a lot of fragrance on your skin is not good for you

212

so i'm gonna stay away stay away from the fall flavored body lotions okay

213

and last one is number 10 journal materials so i know

214

that last year the louise carmen popped off like she was

215

off the charts everybody was wrapping their journal in a leather material with the trinkets

216

and then the whole punching and the leather and the diy

217

and yes it is so cute i was for it i was for it

218

but i loved to observe from afar and my journal

219

and my journal and my journal right here is i guess she's naked

220

but i like the color as you can as you can see i i love color

221

so this is my trusty old journal astrology japanese love her

222

lays flat um yeah i did not louise carmen her

223

because i felt like she was already beautiful

224

or she was already beautiful why would her why would I cover her up why would I cover up

225

and I am a journal girly through and through I have lots of books

226

and things and and pens and things for my journals

227

but I feel like I want to focus directly on the

228

journal just I just need a pen to paper thought to pen

229

and thoughts to words I just need to like open it up

230

and just and not get distracted by all the jingle jangle things and trinkets and things So yeah, I won't be buying any journal materials.

231

I am happy with a plain old journal and a pen I'm a simple girl.

232

I'm a simple girl.

233

What can I say?

234

I'm a simple girl If you love to spice up your journal like I love

235

that for you You do you but i'm always like

236

if I buy all those trinkets and things What

237

if I grow out of it

238

and then it becomes trash later on like would hate to see that So I keep it simple.

239

But if you love the trinkets you do you

240

You do you yeah guys go do things that aren't walking into Target or Walmart.

241

Don't let Target or Walmart invade your space.

242

Protect your peace.

243

Those are the things that I won't be buying this fall

244

and just for you guys I wrote down a little list of the things

245

that you could do instead of walking into Target or Walmart.

246

You could take a walk and notice the changing colors of the leaves and then sigh.

247

You could curate your fall wardrobe with pieces you already have.

248

Change out the colorfuls and the summers and the tank tops for the trousers and the long sleeves and the darker tones,

249

the greens, the browns, earthy tones.

250

And you could change up the feng shui of your room by changing or refreshing or resetting things, changing the layout,

251

swapping out things with things that you already have instead of buying more things

252

so yeah that is that's all for the things

253

that i am not buying this fall i hope you guys enjoyed

254

and if you're new here and this video helped you consider subscribing

¿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.
