1
Even though I don't like exercising in the morning, I decided to go to gym now.
2
I sent off that request to my manager at work and they rejected it.
3
It's cold, but it's not as cold as before, which means the spring is here.
4
Finally, the weather is getting nice
5
and I have the motivation to do all the things I've been postponing for the last two, three months.
6
During the winter months, spring feels like a reawakening of my soul. so the main
7
and number one thing i've been avoiding during these winter months
8
is going gym since i have the motivation i decided to
9
go to gym now even though i don't like exercising in the morning especially before work
10
but i know myself and i know that
11
if i don't go now whilst having the motivation i might never will
12
or i might postpone it for another two three weeks
13
which we don't want to do for that reason i'm just gonna go
14
and try to be back in a good time so that i can shower and eat before work
15
I always try to pop the socks to the gym because
16
while stretching I'd like to take my shoes off so I better make sure there's no balls or anything.
17
I'm wearing my nice socks. so And
18
now we're moving on to the part which I despise
19
and avoid the most which is cardio but also it's the most important part
20
because my stamina is so weak that I just get out of breath really really quickly.
21
We're done.
22
To be honest, my main reason to go gym has been for aesthetic purposes, like for a toned body even though research shows time
23
and time the benefits of regular exercise on health especially as we age to reduce
24
that age-related decline and for longevity even though i knew
25
that i still wasn't exercising for health reasons until i started working as a doctor
26
and i got to meet patients from all ages with all
27
kinds of backgrounds like literally a couple of weeks ago i
28
was scheduled to see this 70 year old lady as my patient.
29
It was the appointment time so I went to the waiting area where patients sit
30
and wait to be called out by their doctor.
31
I went there and I can't see my patient.
32
There's no patient who's in their 70s or who's elderly in that waiting room.
33
I go back to my computer on the system, I check the patient's name and date of birth and the system shows the patient is arrived.
34
So I go out in the waiting area again, still there's only a few patients there and none of them are elderly.
35
I call out her name anyway and then this 40 year old looking very healthy lady comes towards me
36
I'm surprised so I ask her to confirm her name and date of birth again and it's correct
37
and I ask her like what's your secret you literally don't
38
look like you're in your 70s you look like you're in your 40s
39
and obviously she was very flattered she said her career requires
40
her to be regularly active she works as a cleaner she
41
loved her job she was active due to her job every day
42
and that's not a one of example
43
that i've seen there is this specific group of 60 to 70 something year olds
44
that i see who look very healthy for their age
45
and one thing they have in common is how active they've
46
been their whole life i actually ask every patient who i think look very young
47
and healthy for their age i'm nosy like i'm actually interested in what makes them look
48
so healthy so independent because i want to be like
49
that i want to be able to climb mountains and like run off the hills when I'm 70.
50
If you want to be as well, we should exercise for health reasons.
51
You know, I've never used my dishwasher because I think to myself I'm just one person.
52
I don't have a lot of dishes to wash
53
but maybe i should try to use this oh my god i don't want to wash all
54
that i don't have time for it i don't get how i wake up so early
55
but i'm still rushing in the last half an hour until
56
i get to work my time management sometimes is questionable maybe that's why god made me an early bird
57
because he was like this girl is not gonna survive otherwise Nice.
58
The problem is I don't have a dishwasher tablet.
59
As the weather is getting warmer, I'm getting significantly more sweaty
60
and in need of a good deodorant especially since i'm naturally
61
a very sweaty girl unfortunately i literally used to use antiperspirants for men
62
but i switched to natural deodorant because i have a very dry
63
and sensitive skin including my underarm skin
64
and with antiperspirants my underarm skin would get very dry
65
and uncomfortable but also i don't want to be stinky
66
so i switched to natural deodorant and this is my new deodorant fussy.
67
Love the packaging, such a nice pastel colour.
68
I chose the purple one.
69
I like that fussy has clean ingredients.
70
It's natural, vegan, cruelty free, but most importantly, it's gentle on my skin.
71
And it has 24 hour odor neutralizing formula, so you don't need to reapply during the day
72
and you smell fresh even during busy days workouts running errands
73
but it still doesn't block your sweat and it's super sustainable
74
and easy to use you just get the refill
75
and take the lid out
76
and pop it in there voila you can try it for yourself with my code zeliha
77
and get 15% of your fussy order So
78
we're in We're in Akara's house
79
We're in Akara's house This is the perks of being in the same flat with your friends and having them as neighbors.
80
You can just come up anytime you want.
81
Exactly.
82
Oh, where's your birthday? In June.
83

84

85
Guess what our star sign is.
86

87

88

89

90

91

92

93
Oh, really?
94
Oh, she's Sagittarius.
95
Really?
96
No, I don't.
97
I don't believe in horstrucks then.
98
But you sound like you are a clued up person.
99
Okay, so I am like that.
100
Like right now, I'm not all over the place, but I twerk.
101
But I twerk.
102
Huh?
103
I'm actually dying, like dying like I'm pretty now.
104
I'm not upset.
105
But I twerk.
106
Same.
107
Same.
108
I twerk.
109
I'm just working at the doctor's room.
110
I have all my time.
111
Me doing it nicely.
112
So what were we saying? At work.
113
Does it still like?
114
No. At work.
115
At work but I'm clueless or like in new places
116
or something like that most of the time it feels like I'm not calm
117
and composed and then when I act it helps me
118
and I become calm and composed hmm you do have a very calm
119
and composed right I feel like everybody knows I'm freaking out all the time
120
I'm on my way to this AI event that I've been invited to.
121
So I'm in London for that.
122
So I used this event invitation as an excuse to come to London and see my family.
123
Okay, we just got out of the tube now.
124
I'm on my way to this matcha place, even though I don't have much time left until the event starts.
125
But before my train to go home tonight, I thought I'd get this matcha.
126
Normal milk is okay.
127
You know people who say matcha tastes like grass?
128
Even those friends that I have, they like this matcha.
129
The stupidest thing happened right now.
130
I don't know how to feel about it.
131
I don't know how to feel about this right now.
132
Hello.
133
Do you know what happened?
134
I went to the event location and I'm like, Oh hi, I'm here for the AI event.
135
And they're like, oh, didn't know something was happening tonight.
136
Let me check.
137
And then they're like, oh, it's not today.
138
And I check my event page on my phone.
139
It's next week today.
140
It's not today.
141
I'm a week early to the event, basically.
142
You know what?
143
I'm not mad about it because I actually use this event to see my family in London. So.
144
But I was wondering if you are still free.
145
I'm just gonna be hanging.
146
I am actually not still free.
147
Aww.
148
Can I get a table for two please?
149
Table for two?
150
Thank you.
151
Wait, I just realized I accidentally said table for two is actually a table for one.
152
I'm all alone.
153
I'm confused today.
154
This place has all of the desserts out on the display by the window.
155
There's so many people looking in and it's attracting a lot of people.
156
And I was one of them actually.
157
The reason
158
why I'm working next Monday and and aren't able to go to the event on the correct date.
159
I won't be able to attend, like I'm working next week today so I'll have to email them and say sorry if I can't attend.
160
It's because I got my annual leaves rejected from work.
161
So previously I mentioned that I planned my nine days off
162
that I get from work in a way
163
that I would have each Monday of the last nine weeks off
164
so that i can use those mondays to work
165
and build on things that i want to achieve outside of my medical career i sent off
166
that request to my manager at work and they rejected it
167
and i actually appealed saying like i followed the protocol i gave six weeks notice
168
and you know i'm not on call or anything like there's nothing to complicate me taking those mondays off but
169
they rejected it again
170
so i was just reflecting on that on my train back home honestly it's not
171
that deep for me but what if someone in my position had a family commitment
172
or like a religious commitment
173
and they really needed those days off i think the system shouldn't work like
174
that i know it's part of being an employee
175
and like your annual leave is at your employer's discretion but it just didn't feel right to me

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.
