1
I'm actually gonna do an at -home workout because I'm doing arms
2
and abs and I actually have most of the equipment that I need for that workout at home.
3
I'm not really a machine person at the gym yet.
4
Why am I hunched like that?
5
I use the machines for some exercises but for most of them I just use weights.
6
I feel like the machines are scary.
7
I'm also definitely getting my period maybe today, maybe tomorrow.
8
This week for sure I can feel it.
9
I can tell by the way
10
that I've felt more annoyed than normal at even the tiniest inconveniences
11
and I've been cussing like a sailor at things that I wouldn't normally cuss at and it's like what 9 a .m.
12
So this is my at -home workout setup location.
13
I've crammed myself between my window and my chairs.
14
The sun hits windows are open and i can just take my time
15
and work out at my own pace and i love that
16
today's the last day of august 2026
17
and i don't journal every day not right now sometimes i do
18
but not right now what i do never skip though is end of month journal entries
19
so now i'm doing my end of month for august
20
and it's just reflections on what have i really enjoyed this month what can i
21
remember that's made me feel happy feel content feel fulfilled
22
and also things that have been pulling me down what's been weighing on me what are some things
23
that i hope to resolve going forward on things
24
that i'm hoping to leave behind and just reflections like
25
that i do have a few questions that I tend to answer one at a time,
26
but oftentimes I also find myself kind of going off script, so to speak, and start writing about just whatever I feel like,
27
where one thing will lead into another.
28
So one thing that I hope to resolve that I'm writing about by September is this
29
confusion of where i want to live going forward as you guys know
30
i've been experimenting a little bit i went to barcelona to see
31
if i could see myself living there and i do have another city
32
in mind a city that i would really really love to spend more time in
33
but i'll give you a hint here
34
it's a very expensive city i know i love this city so much there's no question of it
35
but is it realistic and is it like a smart choice?
36
I don't want to be in Stockholm anymore.
37
I don't feel creatively inspired here.
38
I feel like I've done what I need to do right now.
39
You know, I don't feel excited to go out and try new things or film the streets
40
because i've done that for you know seven years there is
41
so much b -roll of me in stockholm and on the beautiful streets
42
and stockholm is the love of my life you know there's no question but
43
i want some freshness i want some newness and
44
that is the main thing
45
that i know i'll be writing about this month okay
46
i just got back from the grocery store let's do a little grocery haul got some crème fraîche,
47
some kvary which I have no idea if those are the English words for these but it is the Swedish words,
48
some butter for cooking, some chocolate,
49
some potatoes that I will need to make for dinner tonight because the potatoes always go bad really quickly.
50
I got some milk, some parmesan cheese, cream that I used for cooking and then we have a second bag.
51
I got some beef
52
because i've started slowly cooking meat a couple times a week tomatoes some corn tortillas lemon one avocado
53
which isn't ripe right now but i think tomorrow this avocado will be perfect cucumber some
54
which is just like hard bread the bar some oat milk i was craving this so bad and I got a röttika.
55
Some sun -dried tomatoes, these are so good, so much flavor.
56
And some sauerkraka.
57
Surkål.
58
Thank you.
59
Oh, my God.
60
Okay, I realize this dinner looks so freaking boring, but it's honestly so good
61
and it's all i can bear cooking right now it's some tomatoes with some sauce
62
and some beef and also my kindle has no batteries
63
so i'm like am i just gonna raw dog this meal just sit here
64
and not watch anything not listen to anything honestly why not
65
let's take a first bite with you all let's see
66
if this is cooked like i said
67
because i just started cooking meat after many many years being
68
a vegetarian like I'm still terrified of the meat not being cooked enough I definitely overcook any meat
69
that I cook take a shot every time I say cook in this segment you know another thing
70
that I had no idea about because I haven't been buying meat for so many years was how expensive it is.
71
I can get 20 packs of beans or more for this price.
72
Mm -hmm.
73
A little burn.
74
That's okay.
75
There is no law that gods must be fair, Achilles, Shireen said.
76
And perhaps it is the greater grief, after all, to be left on earth when another is gone, do you think?
77
Perhaps, Achilles admitted.
78
I listened and did not speak.
79
Achilles' eyes were bright in the firelight, his face drawn sharply by the flickering shadows.
80
I would know it in dark or the skies, I told myself.
81
I would know it even in madness.
82
I got chills.
83
That was nice.
84
Let's go.
85
I had my coffee.
86
I woke up.
87
I had this idea for a podcast episode.
88
I was going to go out to the gym straight away, but when you get an idea for a podcast,
89
for something to write, for a YouTube video, for anything that's in the realm of creativity,
90
entertainment, I think, you need to sort of work on it right away, because the chance is that you will lose it.
91
I've been on YouTube for seven years.
92
A tip that I have, when an idea strikes you, a concept, anything, if you cannot execute it right away.
93
At the very least, write it down.
94
I'm gonna sit here.
95
Oh, you saw me getting my chair ready for my podcast episode.
96
Well, there was an insect on my chair, so I have thrown that in the bin.
97
Never using that chair ever again because I lost the insect.
98
I have no idea where it is.
99
It was long, it was hairy, it was strange.
100
It's early morning, but we're still gonna have our beautiful lamp to add to the ambiance.
101
Okay, I've recorded my podcast episode now.
102
It feels really good.
103
I still don't know.
104
I can't decide if I'm going to the gym or if I'm going for a beautiful walk.
105
Also, if I go on a walk, I can bring you guys along.
106
I'm not gonna film inside
107
to the gym okay i've decided
108
now i'm going to the gym started pouring rain as i was walking back from the gym
109
so i'm gonna hop in the shower now
110
and then make some lunch it is the best feeling ever
111
when you have worked out you're back home you showered you've moisturized you have left overs from yesterday
112
so you don't just stay in the kitchen
113
and cook for an hour now
114
and best of all you have no plans i have no plans the plan is me
115
and that today is the best day ever
116
i wonder
117
if i didn't do a braid for like 30 years would i forget how to do a braid
118
i know about muscle memory but how far does it go i can go
119
so long without doing braids and i'll remember or riding a bike
120
but things like the piano i'll forget in like a week
121
if i don't study maybe it's the things that you learn fully
122
that become muscle memory like if you fully learn the braid in
123
and out you can do with your eyes closed then you'll never forget it
124
or learning a bike never forget or a language but
125
when it's something
126
that you've only learned a little bit then you're not going to remember
127
it you have to learn it fully maybe that would be my guess
128
i don't know why i'm like this but there are some things
129
that i will just postpone forever this is one of those things
130
so i made a vlog what four
131
or five months ago about this wooden box
132
that i got from ikea for my kitchen
133
and i still haven't assembled it
134
so it's just been laying there on my chair collecting dust i have to get this over with now
135
because i want to start using it
136
and also it's in the way it's bothering me by just being there on the chair
137
because i am so deeply uninterested in it.
138
That's why I'm just not figuring it out.
139
Even when it's something as simple as this.
140
Okay, I think I threw away the instructions.
141
Wait, what?
142
No. No. Oh, this has to be.
143
come on use the strength in your arms nice okay let's go let's go
144
nice okay now we need to get them all the way in do people still say
145
that's what she said see this wasn't even hard
146
i don't know why i made such a big deal out of it i think it's
147
so difficult doing things that you just have no interest in at all.
148
And I think that's what people mean when some people say that they can't cook.
149
Of course there's advanced cooking and understanding ingredients and all the things you go to school for,
150
but just basic everyday cooking where some people claim that they can't do it.
151
I think what they mean is they simply have no interest for it.
152
Unless you have a very, very hard time following simple instructions, because most recipes are really just simple instructions and most things
153
that you have to assemble like this one is just simple instructions.
154
So I think this was the easy part actually because now I'm a bit confused.
155
Well that's a lot of screws.
156
Oh there's a lot of screws.
157
Wow okay.
158
You know I really hope I get a lot of use from this box
159
and I think I will because I want to feel like this was worth it.
160
But it's it's already worth it.
161
I can already feel it's being rewarding.
162
You know I know some of you watching are going to think
163
this is such a simple thing anyone can do
164
and you know I mostly agree with that
165
but we all have different things that we find to be difficult
166
or bothersome or that we procrastinate on for whatever reason
167
and I don't mind celebrating myself
168
and feeling proud of myself for accomplishing even small things
169
or successfully doing something even
170
if to the eyes of the world it seems like such a small thing who is the world to say
171
that right these are really not wanting to get in there can i hammer them in there maybe
172
that will be easier i have my hammer here i don't know
173
if this is a bad idea not a bad idea at all let me mute this part
174
because this is going to be very loud all right muting you again enjoy the music who said i was not handy
175
Look at that.
176
I feel this is probably not even good for my ears now that I think about it.
177
I know Ikea is cheap
178
but the amount of time
179
you have to put into the labor to assemble these things is equivalent to the time
180
that I could have spent putting up my own Etsy shop.
181
You know what?
182
I think I'm done.
183
Now let's figure out what I'm going to put in it.
184
I can't remember why I bought this.
185
Thank you.

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.
