Hello. Is this focus going to work?
0:00.32 – 0:02.56 (2.2s)

Yeah. Hey everyone. Welcome back to my channel. Today I thought I would bring you along on my New Year's Eve and we can spend New Year's Eve together. So, starting off, I've woken up. I just had some breakfast and I'm going to head to the gym right about now because I need to go and do a big workout because I missed the gym yesterday because the girls came around and we managed to literally sit down and talk for like 3 hours. I'm literally seeing them today as well. But we just had such a nice like girly night. We went to watch Jude and the pants mime and then they end up staying at mine until about 10:30. But I am going to go head in my car now. I will talk to you guys when I get to the gym and all of that jazz. I also need to go and get my manifestation stuff sorted because I bought a ball and I want to make a manifestation board this year because I've never done that before, but I've seen a lot of people do it and I really really really really really want to do it. So, I'm going to go head to the gym, work out, and then yeah, we'll carry on with the day. I'm just in the car now. But yeah, no, I have a few things I need to get sorted today, and I am getting my hair done at 3:30 at Lakeside, which I'm really excited for.
0:03.36 – 1:08.08 (64.7s)
3
Basically, guys, um the plan of action is to go to the gym, hit legs, do a 30 minute upper body as well as legs. I'm doing like a full body sesh today and then I'm going to head to Tesco, print out some pics for this manifestation board. But it felt really weird cuz I did like my full body like shave, exfoliate, tan, moisturize, like really really really like good body selfcare.
1:08.88 – 1:35.28 (26.4s)
4
But I couldn't wash my hair cuz I'm getting my hair blowdried. Never not washed my hair in my biggest full body showers, but it's because I'm obviously getting it done. There's no point me washing it last night. So yeah, now I'm just driving to the gym. We went to watch Jude, my best friend, in the pantheon yesterday. He was so good. It was Cinderella. And to be honest, the best part was just watching him because I feel like watching someone who is just like he's always been so good at dance.
1:36.08 – 2:00.56 (24.5s)
5
I feel like he's really just come out of his shell and become such a amazing human and like really really like learned and discovered himself like this past 2 years since he's been dancing like full time. And it's just really nice to watch him basically. So, it was fun. All the girls went. I drove everyone. You see some people like get beaten up in an alleyway and it was kind of scary. Like actually very scary.
2:01.36 – 2:23.76 (22.4s)
6
Frankie went to a wig shop to get a weave for tonight. I was going to say tomorrow, but tonight now it's New Year's Eve today. Um, crazy that it's already this far and like it's New Year's Eve. Like, what the hell?
2:24.56 – 2:39.02 (14.5s)
7
How's the year gone this quickly? To be fair, I feel like I've had a really really good year. Like my life this year has been so crazy and like I've done things I've always dreamt of. But to be honest, obviously it came with it downs and I feel like a lot of people have been doing like what I accomplished this year and it's so nice to talk about that. But there's so much that does happen in people's lives that they don't talk about which is for their own reasons and problems or whatever.
2:39.82 – 3:00.32 (20.5s)
8
But I just hope you know that obviously with every year there's good and there's bad. Um I'd say I've had a very good year. Like I met Ollie this year. Yeah, it's been magical to be honest, but yeah, it's came with it ups and downs, but it truly has had a lot of ups, which I'm happy about. I am actually going on a massive workout, like 9 week plan soon. So, in that plan, it's like your nutritional um diet, it's working out, it's like every single bit to make you feel stronger and better in yourself. And for me, it's not really about like weight loss or anything like that. If I am honest, I feel like I have been slacking a lot with like gym and just like the mindset hasn't been there. So then it means I'm not been as like I've still been good at going to the gym, don't get me wrong, but like I used to be mad for it and I've lost the love for it a lot.
3:01.12 – 3:51.36 (50.2s)
9
So going on to this should make me first of all gain the love that I had originally for the gym and second of all just get me in a bit more of a healthy eating state because I've been trying so much new food recently which I'm really proud of myself but sometimes I feel like I'm eating the wrong foods for what I'm trying to achieve. And like I was saying it's not about losing weight.
3:52.16 – 4:12.08 (19.9s)
10
It's just about like I want to be a bit more toned and I want people to look at me and go yeah I can tell she goes to the gym. I don't know how to describe it, but I just want to be a bit more like toned up basically and a bigger boot. An hour and a half session complete. I'm going to drive to Tesco, go and print out some pickies and then we're going to head home. I probably got like an hour and a half until I need to leave for Lakeside just to make sure I get there on time. But wo, what a session that was. I feel like I need to sneeze.
4:12.88 – 4:45.44 (32.6s)
11
Oh, it's really cold outside today, guys. I don't know what is going on, but I hate this time of year. Ah, there's so many potholes. But I'm going to drive to Tesco, go and print out my stuff, and then I'm going to get back home, do some of my vision board, and then I'm going to excited to get my hair done. I think I'm going to leave and give myself plenty of time just in case of traffic anyway. So, we'll keep you guys updated. But yeah, I need to go home, shower, um, and then get in a nice tracksuit that I'm going to be in all day once I get ready and get my hair done and etc, etc. But I also need to make sure that whatever I wear is a zip up instead of a hoodie because I'm going to have pink cows and I don't want them to get all wrecked.
4:46.24 – 5:28.96 (42.7s)
12
So, but anyway, bye guys. I have made it in here. Let's get it done.
5:29.76 – 5:38.12 (8.4s)
13
Oh my god, I just had such a nice Tesco worker serve me. I love when I get like I don't know. I just love when like they're happy cuz I think like it's New Year's Eve. They're probably just going to go home. So, it's just nice seeing that he was really like smiley and happy and he was really nice. Anyway, I got donuts for later. I got some chocolate clusters, some Brookie Bice. I can't say I've ever tried these, but they look really good. And then I just got like some little cocktail cans. Not a lot.
5:38.16 – 6:04.88 (26.7s)
14
And then I got cranberry juice, Fanta orange, and Coke. I don't actually drink fizzy drinks, so they're not for me.
6:05.68 – 6:10.88 (5.2s)
15
They're actually for everyone else, but I don't know if anyone's actually going to drink like if any mixers or if they just want to drink a Coke. So, I kind of just went for the in between. I had to try one. Sorry. That was good. Um Oh, I was meant to get PVA glue and I forgot.
6:11.68 – 6:28.80 (17.1s)
16
Anyway, it's fine. Come back. I've sorted myself out and these dogs are making me cry. They're so cute. But I come back from Tesco. I got dressed. I got in the shower and I'm now heading to Lakeside. This is my fit check. Travis's Skiims Berska top and I got this cute jacket from Entire Studios. And my hat is Cole Buckston. I'm only wearing it because I didn't want to give my hair up anymore and I needed something to cover cover this hair. But these two honestly, they're just freaking adorable. I know all I do is talk about my dogs, but don't I just love you?
6:29.60 – 7:12.28 (42.7s)
17
Oh, you're the best. Um, but Nan's on her way round, so when I come back, I'll see Nan, which will be really nice. But I'm just going to head upstairs, get some lip balm, and then I'm heading to the hair salon. I just need to double check.
7:15.04 – 7:31.60 (16.6s)
18

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.

Comment pratiquer efficacement sur ShadowingEnglish

  1. Choisissez votre vidéo : Choisissez une vidéo YouTube avec un anglais clair et naturel. Les TED Talks, BBC News, scènes de films, podcasts sont parfaits. Collez l'URL dans la barre de recherche.
  2. Écoutez d'abord, comprenez le contexte : La première fois, gardez la vitesse à 1x et écoutez simplement. Ne répétez pas encore. Concentrez-vous sur la compréhension du sens.
  3. Configurez le mode Shadowing :
    • Mode d'attente : Choisissez +3s ou +5s — après chaque phrase, la vidéo se met automatiquement en pause pour que vous puissiez répéter.
    • Sync sous-titres : Les sous-titres YouTube peuvent parfois être décalés. Utilisez ±100ms pour les aligner.
  4. Faites du Shadowing à voix haute (la pratique essentielle) : Dès qu'une phrase est jouée — ou pendant la pause — répétez-la à voix haute, clairement et avec confiance. Imitez le rythme, les accents et l'intonation du locuteur.
  5. Augmentez le défi : Une fois à l'aise avec un passage, augmentez la vitesse à <code>1.25x</code> ou <code>1.5x</code>. Pratiquez 15 à 30 minutes par jour pour des résultats visibles en quelques semaines.
