Good morning guys, it's Syd.

I woke up just wanting to talk a lot today.

You already know what I'm about to do first.

get coffee so now and they never used to be.

I feel like I have the most mental bandwidth

and mental capacity in the mornings so I try to knock out the harder stuff first usually.

I also have been trying to drink less sugar.

I have been getting like half vanilla sweetener instead of like a full vanilla sweetener.

leftovers for lunch with my current fixation meal this is a sweet potato chicken bowl with tzatziki

so good my roommate got me on this i probably talked about this way too many times on here, so I'm sorry.

It's so good, and I've been really trying to widen my palate.

So there's zucchini in this.

I used to not like zucchini, but after eating this a few times, I've acquired a taste for it.

I get overwhelmed when I have a busy day with work.

and leftovers are just the easiest for me.

I've been feeling sort of

stagnant and it's like one of those things when you put

so much work into something and you like do all this work behind the scenes

that no one sees and then like nothing comes to fruition yet because it's a long process.

I'm really referring to my jewelry brand and how I've kind of had some struggles as like a small business owner.

Of course there's going to be like ups and downs.

Just one of those days.

So it's always worth it in the end.

Next meeting is in five minutes.

So I'm going to prep for that.

Okay.

I thought they were knocking at my door, but it turns out it was for my neighbors.

So I'm off the hook.

Packaging orders for Ophelia, my jewelry brand, has kind of become like therapeutic for me.

Sometimes I have help with it.

Sometimes I just like do it on my own, which right now I'm just doing a couple orders.

Sometimes I throw a podcast on, sometimes I put music on, sometimes I just listen to nothing.

So we got new order insert cards.

When I open a package, I want like a full experience, like what I order from a brand.

So when I started my brand, one of the biggest points I had right away was how can I like make this packaging not only sustainable

but also like a great experience and I just have

so much fun like packaging it putting it together for you guys

so you know you're gonna receive this in your hands and it's So fun for me.

The first order has the Cecilia necklace and some of the Juno earrings in pink.

I love these, but I think these are the last pair.

So I think we officially sold out of these.

All right, I have the Ophelia orders in my purse.

And then I also have a return to do.

Oh, someone's filming.

Just like me.

I'm just staring looking at this.

I don't know why this is like satisfying and so beautiful.

This looks like a painting, almost.

All of these people, I feel very mesmerized right now.

This is like the ultimate people watching spot.

right here.

And that's one of my favorite things to do.

So ignore this.

okay.

Look how cozy it is in here.

I just love my apartment.

I'm so happy.

I feel like the luckiest girl in the world.

Ignore the TV.

I was watching a vlogger in Russia.

I am very interested in Siberia.

You would think that at nighttime being so cozy would be relaxing, but ironically for me, the nighttime.

I've always been like this.

I've been like this since I was really young.

I think it's because I have a lot of time to myself without any distractions.

So I started thinking about things, like overthinking about things and kind of just ruminating.

I just like know myself at this point.

So one of the things I like to do is just like stretch at night.

It kind of makes me like get out of my mind and feel better.

I watch them on YouTube on my TV.

So Russia vlog is over, stretching vlog. is starting.

I am in bed.

I love getting in bed.

There's no better feeling.

We're late for a very important advice segment.

What has happened to this series?

I don't know.

If you guys don't know what the segment is, I kind of came up with it because I wanted someone to go to for advice myself.

I really value opinions from like my close friends or very specific people.

And it's always just like something I value to get a second opinion from someone.

You should be careful who that person is.

And I'm not trying to say I'm qualified, I'm really not.

I do keep this very anonymous.

"Hi, I feel weird asking this, but I'm 26 and my friendships are changing so much.

Some people are drifting, some feel forced, and I don't know if that's normal or if I'm doing something wrong.

Love you." I'm surprised, honestly, that more people don't talk about this because I remember going through a couple like friendship breakups,

not a ton, but there were a couple instances where I felt

so alone during that and I felt almost like I was doing something wrong or maybe like this isn't normal.

about it as the person that I was when I was 17, 18 is a totally different person than who I am now at 25.

I also went through such different phases during that time

and I think there were certain people that I was friends with when I was 17, 18 that I'm so grateful that I was friends with them

and I'm grateful for the time I had with them but I also am grateful that we're not friends anymore.

Friendship breakups don't even need to be messy either.

I think sometimes you just grow out of them you know.

Sometimes you just realize I don't think we're maybe as compatible as I thought that are growing in different directions.

Sometimes when I was younger, I felt like, I can't not be friends with this person.

I've, you know, built this great friendship with them, and we have so many memories together, but sometimes like you just fade,

and sometimes you grow into different people, and that's okay also.

After your like late 20s, things start to settle out more, and like you really grow into yourself, so I think it's really just pivotal,

100

and just kind of like an instrumental time.

101

From your late teens to your early 20s, I don't think it should be this like horrible thing to outgrow friends.

102

But it also makes those friendships that you do have and you carry on for so long, so special.

103

The friends that I've had from ages like 17 to now, I would say I have, and those are some of my best, best friends, and I'm like so thankful for them.

104

And we grew into people that were like compatible, and like we kind of like grew into ourselves, but also like grew into the friendship.

105

I think my point is just like don't be stressed about it.

106

And it doesn't mean you need to have this like horrible fallout with a friend.

107

I don't think that's always necessary.

108

Maybe the friendship dissolves a bit and you just see them a lot less but not never.

109

I really am the type of person that I have found how much I value my friends.

110

Like I love my friends

111

and I wouldn't want to have like way too many friends to where I can't like cherish each friendship that I have.

112

I value them so much and I don't want to just be friends with everyone

113

because they say a friend to everyone is a friend to no one.

114

It'll make the ones that stick feel just that much more special.

115

All right, bedtime, love you.

116

See you in the morning.

117

I don't know why I'm having so much trouble this morning This is really sad to post.

118

Like, why is it It's so hard for me to get up right now.

119

Something's off, something's in the air.

120

Ever since my alarm went off this morning, I've been out of it.

121

So I really clearly

122

need these eye patches it's gonna be a tough one but i have a hair appointment So that's exciting.

123

Unfortunately, I'm gonna have to put this off till later.

124

And we're gonna revisit the situation when I'm back.

125

Guys, I wish you could be inside my head right now.

126

I like woke up from like an insane dream.

127

And I kinda hate when people talk about their dreams 'cause it's like, does it, who cares?

128

Sorry, is that mean?

129

I feel like I'm like not even in real life still.

130

I'm not okay.

131

All right, my indecision always tends to take over at this point.

132

No matter what I say going in, I feel like I always end up going more conservative than I want.

133

And this time I didn't.

134

I'm so proud of myself.

135

goal.

136

If you follow me on Instagram, you may be annoyed with me because I have been going on about this and asking you guys for a while.

137

Clearly, I'm just indecisive.

138

But I did cut, I want to say like four to five inches off, and I feel like so refreshed.

139

I don't know what it is about cutting my hair.

140

I feel like kind of just like sets me up for a new chapter.

141

Maybe I'm being too introspective about this, but it does make me feel a lot better,

142

and I am so happy. of chopped it.

143

I kind of chopped a lot more than I thought that I would.

144

I don't know if it's because it's curled right now that it feels like extra short, but I really like it.

145

Also, like the gloss toner that she did, I am so glad that she did that because I really just trusted her with what she recommended.

146

I do feel extra pale.

147

Really need to self -tan, like immediately.

148

This is so good.

149

This cracker, you guys already know.

150

But now I've added something new to the rotation.

151

This sauce.

152

I with it.

153

I could eat this for breakfast, lunch, and dinner if that was possible.

154

All right smoothie time in the winter.

155

I don't really drink smoothies as much because i'm just so cold, but i'm really craving one today Um you What happened?

156

Where'd it go?

157

That was really fast.

158

I swear I only took like two sips of this in my head and then I looked and it's completely gone.

159

I think I've perfected my new smoothie recipe actually.

160

I've been trying to like switch up my content on Instagram

161

and be more creative with it and it's actually made it like a lot more fun.

162

So I'm going to film a little video.

163

This is so sad and disappointing but it's also very exciting and satisfying.

164

I finished my eyebrow pencil.

165

I know why.

166

I really need an eyebrow pencil.

167

I like this one.

168

I got this from Sephora.

169

I bought it like two months ago.

170

I liked it.

171

If you guys have any brow pencil recs for me, please let me know.

172

Preferably quickly because this

173

gone as much as I like love giving my recs to

174

you guys I really do guys for a lot of recs

175

too makeup is done we got ready I'm with

176

Olivia we're almost at the hotel we're gonna take some content

177

All right, guys, I think Olivia and I really killed it.

178

I think we did a great job and it's always easier to take photos

179

when you're with someone who also does it and like wants to take photos.

180

I kind of get a little bit, I don't know if the word's insecure, but doing social media as a job, especially for so long, I just, I know that a lot of people can see it as like very

181

because you're your own brand and like the campaigns I'm shooting and stuff for clothing brands or whatever brand it is, it's like centered around me because I am my brand.

182

And that's something I've become very hyper aware of, especially as I get older that I just like don't want to be that person like taking selfies 24 /7.

183

You know, like there's so much more to life, like an Instagram photo.

184

But obviously like what this is without saying, I love my job.

185

I feel like the luckiest girl in the whole world.

186

I'm going to do some work now on my monitor.

187

You guys know I recently got a monitor.

188

I never thought I would have a monitor, but I kind of love it though.

189

I really love having such a big screen.

190

It's something that I never thought I would ever use, but it's been really nice.

191

So I'm going to sync this up

192

like a whole keyboard setup like it's like sort of like an office structure space

193

that i don't have just realized i forgot to make my bed at this point it's too late obviously.

194

I like this little shrug moment.

195

Something different and fun.

196

So I can't stop looking at my hair.

197

I really like it, I think.

198

Especially for the first day, you know, that's usually when I panic after.

199

I feel like I did something horrible and I have kind of like a freak out about it.

200

But for some reason, I'm like not freaking out at all.

201

I love it.

202

It was also not that drastic of a cut.

203

So I'm just procrastinating at this point.

204

Let's just go to the gym.

205

I showered and dried my hair, 'cause I really wanted to see how my hair looked just straight, natural, and it's so short.

206

Boost Your Daily English Fluency with This Real-Life Video

Learning English with YouTube is a fantastic way to practice real-world conversation, and this video—about a busy, productive day—is perfect for english speaking practice. It targets everyday fluency, helping you talk about routines, emotions, and small tasks naturally, just like a native. Whether you’re a beginner or refining your skills, shadowing (or "shadowspeak") this dialogue will make you more comfortable with casual, conversational English.

Phrase Bank: Reusable Expressions for Your Day

"knock out the harder stuff first" (tackle difficult tasks early)
"acquired a taste for" (learned to like something over time)
"nothing comes to fruition yet" (no results from efforts so far)
"full experience" (a complete, enjoyable process)
"off the hook" (no longer responsible for something)
"people watching spot" (a place to observe others)

These phrases work in daily chats—use them when talking about work, food, or even people-watching! Try shadow speak by repeating each phrase aloud, mimicking the speaker’s tone and rhythm.

Fix Your Weak Spots: Natural Rhythm & Intonation

This video is great for practicing conversational flow. Notice how the speaker pauses, stresses words like "therapeutic" and "mesmerized," and uses casual contractions ("I'm," "it's"). Many learners struggle with making English sound "natural"—shadowing this clip will help you master that relaxed, everyday rhythm. Pay attention to how she talks about feelings ("overwhelmed," "stagnant")—these emotional phrases are key for connecting with others. Shadow speech is all about copying not just words, but the feeling behind them—so don’t be afraid to sound like you’re "talking to a friend"!

Ready to start? Hit play, pause, and repeat. With this video, you’ll turn "practice" into "real life" in no time.

מהי טכניקת השאדואינג?

שאדואינג היא טכניקת למידת שפה מבוססת מדע שפותחה במקור להכשרת מתורגמנים מקצועיים ופופולרית על ידי הפוליגלוט ד"ר אלכסנדר ארגואלס. השיטה פשוטה אך עוצמתית: אתה מקשיב לאודיו באנגלית ילידית וחוזר עליו בקול רם מיד — כמו צל העוקב אחרי הדובר עם עיכוב של 1–2 שניות בלבד. בניגוד להאזנה פסיבית או תרגילי דקדוק, שאדואינג מכריח את המוח והשרירים בפה לעבד ולשחזר דפוסי דיבור אמיתיים בו זמנית. מחקרים מראים שזה משפר משמעותית את דיוק ההגייה, האינטונציה, הקצב, הדיבור המחובר, הבנת השמיעה ושטף הדיבור — מה שהופך אותו לאחת השיטות היעילות ביותר להכנה לIELTS Speaking ולתקשורת באנגלית בעולם האמיתי.
