53
It literally was the carpet.
54
Exit carpet.
55
With my morning coffee.
56
You guys didn't tell me that you guys knew until much later.
57
We like, we just pretended we didn't know.
58
But you guys knew before I started?
59
Yes.
60
Wow.
61
Yeah.
62
We knew it a week before we started.
63
Because we knew that we were going to be already going to start this.
64
Hmm.
65
I feel like I haven't done like a day in my life.
66
I used to even do like more like,
67
this is how I design an experiment.
68
Or like, the steps through an analysis.
69
Or like, uh.
70
We're going to have to go watch it.
71
Yeah, we just got there.
72
Now we need those.
73
Oh.
74
I think we're going to just trade that Julia customization.
75
Yeah.
76
Should I train one for you guys before?
77
So you are a b-cham basketball?
78
Yes.
79
How would you have to go as useful as all?
80
I made up in a bad feeling.
81
The last couple of days I've been packing and cleaning because I am leaving New York for a little bit.
82
This is one of my favorite hair care brands called LolaV.
83
It's Jennifer Aniston's brand.
84
Oh my gosh, it's a little care basket.
85
We have some lip balms from Goop Beauty.
86
I've never seen I've seen this before.
87
Weighted blanket for your eyes.
88
Oh!
89
Charlotte Tilbury setting spray.
90
My best friend swears by this.
91
Pen cream from Rare Beauty.
92
Lillivie dry shampoo and heat protected spray.
93
I really need this one.
94
This basket is for International Women's Day and it celebrates all of these woman-owned brands,
95
which I love.
96
Thank you so much, Lillivie.
97
Okay, so I am preparing to leave New York for a couple months.
98
I think one of my main goals for taking this gap year is to one,
99
not only pursue my side projects and side ventures,
100
but two, a big theme is to spend more time with my parents.
101
Every time I see them,
102
I just get so sentimental thinking about how much they've aged and how much I've grown up as well.
103
So while I am taking this gap year,
104
since I have the agency to,
105
you know, build my product and do social media from anywhere it gives me
106
so much flexibility just to stick with them
107
and spend a lot of time with them
108
so my plan for the next year is to be pretty nomadic i'm just gonna move wherever they move
109
so they're currently in china right now
110
so i'm gonna go to china over the summer they're actually gonna come back
111
and visit the states for the first time in a while so
112
I'll be here for a month or two in the summer.
113
Enjoy New York City summer.
114
I'll be moving with them to max out my time with them.
115
Like there's this romantic perception of moving back home and spending time with your parents.
116
I know that, you know,
117
there will be trials and tribulations with that too.
118
But as of right now, I really miss them.
119
And I'm just so, so excited to see them.
120
Before I go to Asia though,
121
I am going to LA for a friend's wedding.
122
and then I'm taking a little relaxing vacation in Hawaii.
123
It's gonna be my first time in Hawaii.
124
I'll be there for a week and then I'll be off to Asia.
125
This is the last day of work outfit.
126
So cute.
127
Last lunch.
128
Wow.
129
Now I can be my truest form and just vlog everywhere.
130
I think the smell fits.
131
It's the first nice day in New York and everyone's running!
132
Just got a really exciting package Any guesses?
133
This one's gonna be hard to guess
134
I got a wall-mounted CD player I've been wanting one for the longest time There is
135
so much design significance in this This is obviously not the
136
original one I got it off of eBay for like a little under $50,
137
which is really insane.
138
I have a vision for this.
139
I want to incorporate it into my new short form series.
140
The working title is called My Adult Gap Year,
141
and I want to use this in the intro scene.
142
So let me actually just set this up and try it out.
143
I have all of these Got 7 albums,
144
and I haven't been able to listen to any of the CDs because I don't have a CD player.
145
The moment of truth.
146
Cool.
147
Wow.
148
I am throwing a little party tonight A lot of my friends
149
and a lot of my co-workers really want to celebrate this next chapter in my life with me
150
So everyone wants to catch up before I head out And so I was like,
151
why don't I just throw something?
152
Everyone can come, it'll be chill,
153
it'll be fun, low stress So wrong But me being me,
154
somehow this snowballed into like a themed event
155
so the title for this party is called julia out of office until further notice
156
and there's a dress code so the dress code is office siren
157
or excel daddy whatever that means to you
158
and then for the past couple of hours i've been putting together powerpoints for the games
159
so this is heavily inspired by actually liana's birthday party last year she did a job interview themed birthday party
160
And so I have some fast math questions and I have some rebus puzzles,
161
which are really, really fun.
162
And some other games too.
163
The idea was to split everyone into groups and then we kind of like do a group challenge.
164
We'll see.
165
Hopefully it goes well and hopefully everyone has fun.
166
Are you changing your name, Pedro?
167
My office name is Heffa Pedro.
168
I wonder if anyone remembers Pedro.
169
Oh, the sassy coworker.
170
Yeah, the sassy, everyone's favorite Spotify coworker.
171
My coworker brought us now.
172
I love these coats.
173
So cute.
174
Lions.
175
Elton.
176
Um, gorillas.
177
Are gorillas at the circus?
178
Happy Thursday!
179
Oh yeah!
180
you

¿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.
