10
And then tomorrow is actual wedding ceremony.
11
So I'm going to vlog as much as I can for you guys.
12
I want to show you guys all the BTS of being a bridesmaid.
13
So if you're an upcoming bridesmaid or if you're an upcoming bride, first of all, congrats.
14
Second of all, let's enjoy these vibes.
15
This is the first time that I've ever been a bridesmaid and I'm very, very excited.
16
I do need to put on some eye masks though because I'm not doing well.
17
It's actually cold today, which is not really the vibe because it's a sunny Florida beach wedding, but I honestly don't mind.
18
You guys know if you're a subscriber, I love the cold, but I did have to change my outfit plans.
19
So I'm literally wearing my twilight shirt that I wear all the freaking time.
20
And I was gonna wear like this very cute like Key West style little seashell top, but it is way too cold for that.
21
Also you guys, I got my nails done.
22
How absolutely gorgeous.
23
It kind of looks like the Funny Bunny Hailey Bieber nails, but they're a little bit more nude.
24
I put chrome on top and I'm just obsessed.
25
I actually haven't gotten my nails done in a very long time.
26
When I'm at home in LA, I usually just do press-ons, but I wanted something very legit, something that won't fall off during the wedding.
27
And I usually do like dip powder with tip, but we did a press or a pre.
28
I don't know, but I like it.
29
It kind of feels like having press-ons, but you know, they actually do it professionally and it stays on.
30
So that's the vibe.
31
I'm going to take you guys on this road trip with me.
32
It's literally gonna take us like two hours to get there.
33
It's not bad, but i'm obviously packing snacks I've got my headphones
34
So we're gonna be vlogging in between this camera and my phone.
35
It is what it is I'm gonna get what I can get.
36
Let's get into the vlog Two hours later
37
and we have officially made it I'm gonna give you guys
38
a room tour before it turns into a complete mess in
39
here after you enter we have this big fat mirror
40
and this is also our closet
41
and then we have the bathroom i haven't even been in here yet
42
but so so cute we have the shower all of our shower products
43
and then we have this super cute little mini bar oh they have like a little pantry menu
44

45
if you feel the same then leave a comment we've got our little microwave our mini fridge
46
and we have two queen beds a little desk area our tv and and then a balcony.
47
I actually didn't even know this came with a balcony.
48
It's literally so cute.
49
I love when I'm on vacation and I can just like sit outside and enjoy the fresh air.
50
You can kind of see the ocean over there and there's a marina.
51
I'm just gonna start getting ready, put on my outfit, do my makeup, and fix my hair because I desperately need it.
52
And then it's time to rehearse!
53
We are officially ready.
54
I was gonna wear my false eyelashes
55
and I was gonna wear them for the wedding tomorrow
56
but I really don't like how they came out
57
so I'm just not gonna try because if I mess up and I look bad in these photos for eternity, I'm gonna be angry, okay?
58
Let's do an outfit of the day.
59
I think this necklace is from Shein.
60
I got it from my mom.
61
I have this little gold bangle bracelet from Macy's.
62
OBY jewelry, Lanier.
63
I also have this super cute little heart charm from Macy's
64

66
as much as i can for you guys on my phone let's freaking go
67
we are walking to the beach we actually haven't even explored
68
the freaking hotel yet we just got here immediately got ready
69
and had 45 minutes
70
and met downstairs yeah now we're here now we're walking this is gonna be our time to explore
71
so let's have a look-see I fully brought flat shoes to wear instead,
72
but I'm wearing my heels to practice walking in the sand with them, and I'm low-key regretting it, but look how pretty.
73
Most of you know me as Marcelo's sister, some of you guys know me as Sophie's friend, but most importantly, I'm their matchmaker.
74
So I will be taking a Marcelo to a good life.
75
Good morning.
76
It's coronation day.
77
It's coronation day.
78
I'm very tired.
79
My eyes were incredibly red this morning.
80
I used one of those like eye drop relief for redness and it helped so so much.
81
I think it was because I was wearing contact lenses yesterday and I never wear my contacts.
82
I just keep my glasses on because I hate the feeling of the contacts.
83
So they were feeling a little bit dry.
84
I will be wearing my contacts today of course and I'm gonna take them off mid-party because I'm trying to be comfy.
85
Anyway, today's Saturday, November 29th.
86
It is 8 45 a.m at 9 30.

88
I'm so excited, but first I want to get some breakfast downstairs.
89
I know we're going to do like a coffee run, but I'm very hungry in the morning, so I want to take advantage of the hotel breakfast first.
90
Oh my god, but you guys, the rehearsal dinner was really fun yesterday.

This approach allows you to learn English with YouTube videos, just like this wedding vlog, by mimicking the speaker’s tone, inflection, and pace. Here’s how to effectively tackle this video:
- Watch and Listen: Start by watching the video without subtitles. Pay attention to the speaker's pronunciation and rhythm.
- Repeat and Imitate: Play short segments of the video and pause frequently. Try to repeat what she says as closely as possible, focusing on mimicry of her expressions and emotions.
- Use Subtitles: Turn on the subtitles to reinforce what you've heard. This helps in recognizing written words that match the spoken ones.
- Record Yourself: After some practice, record your voice while shadowing. Listen to your pronunciation and compare it to the speaker's to identify areas for improvement.
- Practice Regularly: Consistency is key. Make shadowspeaks part of your daily routine to improve and track your progress over time.
By incorporating these strategies, you won’t just enjoy engaging content but also improve your English skills in a fun and relatable way.
Qu'est-ce que la technique du Shadowing ?
Le Shadowing est une technique d'apprentissage des langues fondée sur la science, développée à l'origine pour la formation des interprètes professionnels. Le principe est simple mais puissant : vous écoutez de l'anglais natif et le répétez immédiatement à voix haute — comme une ombre suivant le locuteur avec un décalage de 1 à 2 secondes. Les recherches montrent une amélioration significative de la précision de la prononciation, de l'intonation, du rythme, des liaisons, de la compréhension orale et de la fluidité.
