1
Hi, I'm Sunny, and I have a curse to live with.
2
I'm too nice, and I can't say no. Whenever I try, I'm hit by a tsunami of guilt.
3
I feel nauseous, my butt starts sweating, and I have to fix the situation.
4
I just can't stand someone being displeased with me.
5
I know what you're thinking.
6
She's a people pleaser, a pushover.
7
And of course, you're right.
8
But it took me some time to realize that.
9
But before I continue, like and subscribe.
10
Sorry, it's not in order.
11
It's just a request, please.
12
I never disobeyed my mother.
13
I always shared my lunch at school.
14
I always gave up the swing at the park, and I could never turn down a poor person's request.
15
Like this one time in 10th grade, I was running back home after school when the homeless guy around the corner asked me for a favor.
16
Hey, Sonny, could you hold this shovel for a few minutes?
17
It's really heavy, and I need to run to the soup kitchen before it closes.
18
Sure, no problem.
19
I kept standing there for two hours, and he didn't return.
20
Finally, I left the shovel in the homeless guy's corner with an apology note.
21
But later that night, the police turned up at my door to arrest me.
22
Apparently, they'd found my fingerprints all over a murder weapon.
23
A frickin' shovel!
24
It took a while to get my name cleared.
25
Or this one time, I had to go to the bathroom in the mall
26
when I accidentally went into the disabled people's stall.
27
When I came out, I was met by a furious woman in a wheelchair.
28
I've been holding my pee for 10 minutes!
29
People like you are what's wrong with society.
30
What?
31
Oh no, this was a mistake.
32
I'm so sorry.
33
I followed her all over the mall begging for forgiveness till she called security and told them I was harassing her.
34
Well, naturally, I followed her home and started showing up at her door every day.
35
Her servants wouldn't let me in, so one day I broke into her house through a window.
36
Please, please just say you'll forgive me.
37
I can't live like this anymore.
38
She filed a restraining order that day.
39
I still pay for a plane to go over her house every week and skywrite my apology.
40
In addition to being nice, I'm also a teen model.
41
I know, I'm breaking stereotypes.
42
I've been on the cover of a dozen fashion magazines, and I've walked on many big runways.
43
My career was amazing.
44
Till my mom convinced me to fire my agent and hire her instead.
45
Trust me, honey, I'll make you a star.
46
Um, that's nice, mom, but you have no experience.
47
What does that matter?
48
I'm your mother, and no one will ever have your interest in heart like I do.
49
I was in labor with you for the worst 23 minutes of my life, remember?
50
Right, of course.
51
You can be my agent.
52
I already knew it was a horrible idea.
53
Mom hated people and rubbed everyone the wrong way.
54
She screamed at the photographers and made a makeup artist cry.
55
She even yelled at a famous designer
56
and started mopping the floor with his dress to show him what she really thought of it.
57
Soon, Mom started complaining about our small house in our dingy neighborhood and started making trouble with the loud, ugly neighbors.
58
Her words, not mine.
59
So, I bought a chic new apartment in a posh area.
60
But then, Mom started complaining about her privacy.
61
Sonny, you really are getting in the way.
62
My new boyfriend and I need our space.
63
But you're standing in my room.
64
Maybe you should move.
65
Yeah, I know.
66
It didn't make any sense.
67
I bought the place.
68
I was bringing in the money.
69
I shouldn't be the one to move out.
70
But as always, I gave in.
71
After buying the apartment, money was a bit tight.
72
Luckily, I found a room in a beautiful beach house that I had to share with three other models.
73
Sasha, Tracy, and Mika.
74
And I soon discovered that living with models, the drama was always out of control.
75
I mean, what would you expect from girls who eat a cube of cheese, one grape, and two almonds a day?
76
They're always hangry.
77
That's my seat, you stupid cow.
78
Is your name written on this seat?
79
OMG, are you wearing my shirt?
80
Is your name written on the shirt?
81
Show me where it is.
82
Can you idiots shut up?
83
If I don't get enough sleep, I'd look like a raccoon.
84
And then I'll bite like one, too.
85
I had to break up almost a dozen catfights.
86
One day, I cooked us all dinner so we could try to get to know each other.
87
Sasha dreamed of being a pop star.
88
Tracy loved to work out.
89
And Mika was insanely pretty and loved rubbing that in everyone's face.
90
I asked Sasha to sing us one of her songs.
91
And I never heard something so horrible in my life.
92
Of course, I still clapped for her, but Mika and Tracy fell off their seats laughing.
93
What's so funny?
94
You sound like a constipated pig.
95
I'd rather put my head up a cow's butt than listen to you.
96
Yeah, stick to modeling.
97
As long as you can.
98
I mean, you're already showing signs of aging.
99
Sasha got so mad that she threw her plate of pasta at Tracy.
100
Tracy ducked and the food landed on Mika's dress, and they started shouting and pulling at each other's hair.
101
I tried to break up the fight, but I slipped on some sauce and fell.
102
Then someone tossed a hair extension onto the stove, and the kitchen caught fire.
103
When the landlord found out, he was furious and banned us from the kitchen.
104
I put up an ad online for a chef, and a ridiculously good -looking candidate named Lance showed up the next day.
105
Uh, so Lance, you can cook, huh?
106
Yeah, that's why I applied for the job.
107
Lance, your cologne is to die for.
108
I'm not wearing any cologne.
109
Lance, did you just fix - are sank?
110
You're such a genius!
111
It wasn't broken, you just left the faucet on.
112
Your biceps look like boulders.
113
Can I touch them?
114
I'd prefer it if you didn't.
115
Lance was an amazing chef, a handyman, and even a gardener.
116
One day, all of us were drooling at his abs as he pulled out weeds, when suddenly some crazy paparazzi climbed over our garden wall.
117
Lance ran towards them like Tom Cruise, broke their cameras, kicked their butts, and sent them running.
118
Oh my god.
119
I can't take it anymore.
120
I have to ask him out.
121
No, he's mine.
122
What?
123
I saw him first.
124
I don't think he's interested in dating any of us.
125
Shut up.
126
Who asked you?
127
The girls cornered Lance in the hallway to get his attention.
128
Sasha sang Lance an awful love song.
129
Tracy did a cheerleading routine.
130
Then Mika walked up in a bathing suit.
131
Hey Lance, you want to go for a swim?
132
Uh, no thanks.
133
I gotta get back to work.
134
But the girls' constant flirting and fawning over Lance got
135
so out of hand that he couldn't do his job properly since he was always trying to hide from them.
136
One of the toilets got clogged, the shower stopped working, and the front yard was starting to look like a jungle.
137
I can't live like this!
138
How are we supposed to share one bathroom?
139
I haven't taken a shower in two days!
140
I proposed a solution.
141
Okay then, from here on out, Lance is off limits.
142
No one is dating Lance.
143
They reluctantly agreed and we made a pact.
144
We all left Lance alone and soon the house started getting back to normal.
145
A couple of months later, I threw a party and invited a bunch of rich models.
146
Sasha, Tracy, and Mika seemed to forget about their crush on Lance in about two minutes.
147
Just then, the doorbell rang and Mom walked in.
148
Hey, honey, did you miss me?
149
Clearly not, or you would have sent me a proper invite.
150
Mom, actually, I...
151
Yes, you're right.
152
I'm sorry, but I'm glad you're here now.
153
Just for ten minutes.
154
I don't want to overstay where I'm not wanted.
155
I just need to borrow a couple of dresses from you and about, oh, $20 ,000.
156
But I let you borrow $10 ,000 last week.
157
Don't be cheap, honey.
158
It's unattractive.
159
Don't you want mommy to buy something nice for her birthday?
160
Your birthday isn't for another 11 months.
161
But mom was being pushy, and I knew she'd make a scene.
162
So I gave her my credit card and told her to return it in two weeks.
163
Just then, I noticed Lance shaking his head at me, and then he walked away.
164
After the party?
165
The house was a mess, so I asked the girls to help me clean up.
166
Sorry, I have plans with my new boyfriend.
167
I'm allergic to dirt.
168
I twisted my ankle.
169
I'm gonna rest.
170
Okay, no problem.
171
Sleep tight.
172
I was up well into the night still cleaning when Lance joined me and started to help.
173
Why are you still here?
174
You don't need to do this.
175
I stayed back in case you girls needed me.
176
I don't mind.
177
As we were cleaning, I kept catching him looking at me strangely.
178
Okay, I can't take it any longer.
179
Why are you staring at me like I have two heads?
180
You're not like the others.
181
You're a misfit.
182
Well, that's rude.
183
No, it's a good thing.
184
You're beautiful, but not self -absorbed.
185
You're smart, and you seem like a really kind person.
186
You think I'm beautiful?
187
That's all you got from what I said?
188
Lance gave me that strange look and went back to work.
189
You're doing that thing with your face again.
190
Did I do something to make you mad?
191
Are you disappointed?
192
Why do you care what I think?
193
I don't know why.
194
I just do.
195
It's how I'm built.
196
Want some advice?
197
Just stop caring what others think and stop letting people push you around and use you.
198
You deserve better.
199
Excuse me?
200
I am not so naive that - Really?
201
Then how come you're the only one who's cleaning up after the party?
202
And has your mom ever returned the money she keeps borrowing?
203
That's none of your business.
204
Okay, that was kind of rude.
205
I'm sorry.
206
Why are you always sorry?
207
Also, would you like to go out with me sometime?
208
What?
209
After you just insulted me?
210
No. I mean, I'm sorry to crush your feelings, and it feels nice to be asked out by someone like you, but no!
211
Sorry!
212
I spent the rest of the night replaying my conversation with Lance, feeling angry.
213
But as I cooled off, I couldn't help thinking that maybe he was right.
214
I did a lot for Mom and the girls, and I couldn't remember the last time they did anything nice for me.
215
The next day, I was watching my favorite MSA videos on the TV, when the girls walked in, and Tracy just snatched the remote from me and changed the channel.
216
I want to watch a movie.
217
Sunny, please sit on the other sofa.
218
No, Sunny, don't sit anywhere.
219
You've got to drive me to the nail salon.
220
Sunny, all my clothes are wrinkled.
221
Iron them when you're back.
222
Lance was right.
223
I was a pushover, and I didn't like it.
224
No!
225
What do you mean no?
226
I won't take you to the beauty salon.
227
I won't iron your clothes.
228
And I was watching TV.
229
All you do is use me, and you don't respect me.
230
And that's not cool.
231
Oh, also, I'm going to go out with Lance, and you all have boyfriends, so I don't care if you're mad.
232
I am breaking the pact.
233
They were shocked, and so was I.
234
I'd never yelled at anyone in my life, and it felt good.
235
Later that day, the girls apologized for treating me badly and promised not to take advantage of me anymore.
236
They even gave me their blessing to date Lance, and of course, I forgave them.
237
Lance and I started dating soon, and we had such a good time together.
238
He helped me stand up for myself more often and gain confidence.
239
I even booked some modeling gigs without involving Mom, and I was doing great!
240
One evening, Mom invited me to dinner at a fancy restaurant, and I decided to introduce Lance to her there.
241
Break up with him, honey.
242
That boy's a waste of time.
243
I'm sitting right here.
244
Mom, Lance is a nice guy, and he makes me happy.
245
He's a loser.
246
By the way, Lance, are you going to finish that cheesecake?
247
Before I forget, Sonny, I need to borrow your credit card again to book a flight to Hawaii.
248
So just give it to me after you've paid for this meal, okay?
249
I felt a wave of rage sweep through me.
250
No!
251
What's that sound you just made?
252
I've never heard it from your mouth before.
253
Hear it now, loud and clear.
254
No, no, no, no, and sayonara.
255
Oh, one last thing, you're fired.
256
I snapped my credit card in half, grabbed Lance's hand, and stormed out of there.
257
I'm sorry about my mom.
258
She shouldn't have treated you that way.
259
Don't worry about it.
260
I'm so proud of you for standing up to her.
261
Lance was such a supportive boyfriend, but mom got more conniving by the minute.
262
She started sending me dozens of texts begging me for money and it got harder to ignore her each day.
263
One night, Lance caught me sneaking out of the house.
264
Where are you going?
265
Uh, for a jog at midnight?
266
Fine, I admit it.
267
I can't help myself.
268
It's a curse.
269
I know my mom's using me, but I can't sleep at night since I refused her money.
270
There's no hope for me.
271
I'm doomed.
272
Leave now and save yourself.
273
I started crying like a baby and Lance pulled me into a hug.
274
Maybe you should try giving money to a good cause, Sonny, to people who really need your help.
275
I thought that was a great idea.
276
The next day, Lance introduced me to his cousin Nancy, who owned a non -profit to feed hungry kids.
277
I was so excited to help that I wrote Nancy a big fat check.
278
Sonny, that's a lot of money.
279
Maybe you should think about this.
280
No, I insist.
281
A couple of weeks later, I donated double the amount, and the month after, I dribbled it.
282
It felt amazing.
283
But one morning, Lance didn't show up to work and didn't answer any of my calls either.
284
When two days passed by, I started getting really worried and filed a missing person report.
285
I even called up Nancy, but her phone was off too.
286
And then I found pictures of Lance and Nancy on social media living their best life on some beach.
287
Lance wasn't even his real name.
288
Their whole charity was a big scam.
289
And duh, Nancy wasn't his cousin.
290
I was so devastated I couldn't get out of bed, take a shower, or comb my hair for days.
291
What is up with you, girl?
292
You smell like a gym sock soaked in spoiled milk.
293
Is there something living in your hair?
294
I burst into tears and told them everything.
295
I knew Lance was trouble with his perfect eyes and hair.
296
He was way too good to be true.
297
Of course he was evil.
298
We'll make him pay.
299
First, we went to the police, who put out a warrant for the pair's arrest.
300
But they were smart and couldn't easily be found.
301
Next, the girls and I went online and told our followers about Nancy
302
and Lance's scam and asked for help to find them.
303
Within minutes, we got a dozen leads.
304
Nancy and Lance were arrested at an airport trying to leave the country.
305
Sasha threw a party at the house to celebrate, but for some reason, I still wasn't happy.
306
I took a walk to get some air, and I saw these kids waiting in line outside a soup kitchen.
307
Suddenly, it turned on a light bulb in my head.
308
Before I knew it was a fraud, it had made me really happy thinking my money was going to needy kids.
309
I could start my own charity.
310
Being nice didn't have to be my weakness.
311
It could be my superpower.
312
And now, five years later, I'm running soup kitchens all over the country.
313
My model friends volunteer sometimes, too.
314
How about I perform for these kids after they've all eaten?
315
No. You two are just jealous.
316
You like my music, right, Sunny?
317
Sasha, I love you.
318
But I really, really, really hate your music.
319
Sorry, I'm not that nice anymore.

הדובר משתמש ב-103 קיצורים וצורות מקוצרות, כמו I'm, you're, don't. אמרו אותם בצורה הקצרה, כפי שאתם שומעים אותם.
- הצלילים של “sh” ו-“zh”: shovel /ˈʃʌv.əl/, pushover /ˈpʊʃəʊvə(ɹ)/, crush /kɹʌʃ/, chef /ʃɛf/, nauseous /ˈnɔʃəs/
- מילים ארוכות — שימו לב להטעמה: apology /əˈpɑ.lə.d͡ʒi/, constipated /ˈkɒnstəpeɪtəd/, paparazzo /ˌpɑ.pəˈɹɑt.soʊ/, reluctantly /ɹɪˈlʌktəntli/, stereotype /ˈstɛ.ɹi.əˌtaɪp/
צלילים שדוברי עברית מתקשים בהם:
- /w/ — שפתיים מעוגלות, לא /v/: hallway /ˈhɔlˌweɪ/, borrowing /ˈbɔrəwɪŋ/, wheelchair /ˈ(h)wilt͡ʃɛɹ/, runway /ˈɹʌnweɪ/, sweep /swiːp/
- /æ/ — פתוח יותר מה-“אֶ” העברית, לא כמו “a” ב-“cup”: pact /pækt/, salon /ˈsælɒn/, scam /ˈskæm/, handyman /ˈhændimæn/, harass /həˈɹæs/
- /r/ — הלשון לא נוגעת בשום מקום, לא ה-“ר” הגרונית: borrow /ˈbɑɹ.oʊ/, pushover /ˈpʊʃəʊvə(ɹ)/, rub /ɹʌb/, furious /ˈfjʊəɹi.əs/, crush /kɹʌʃ/

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.
