Pratica di Shadowing: a busy day in my life (vlog) - Impara a parlare inglese con i video

Good morning guys, it's Syd and welcome back.

Today I'm vlogging.

Also I got a haircut.

Do you guys like it?

It's like barely noticeable.

I am currently at one of my favorite coffee shops.

This place is called Hungry Ghost.

I'm sitting next to this random girl and Okay.

Who is this girl next to me?

Hey guys, this is my friend Sterling.

Who is that?

Hi.

I feel like I'm on one of the street interviews.

What do you do for a living?

What makes you confident?

So I'm starting out my morning working here.

I'm getting some things done.

I have emails and stuff to do.

Why do I like this coffee shop?

Well, I'm glad you asked.

The interior design is beautiful to me.

The lighting is amazing.

The coffee is also amazing.

They can't have everything though because the one thing that they do lack unfortunately is a restroom.

So I really can only last so long here.

I seem to have to pee every two seconds.

So after about an hour of doing emails, I decided to walk back to my apartment.

As I was walking home, I realized I wanted to do a little OOTD.

And since I'm working on filming in public, I thought I would do it on the street.

So exposure therapy, here we go.

I can do it.

I really just need to show you guys what I'm wearing.

Okay, my top is from Aritzia.

I love it.

It's like this light pink halter top.

My bag is from Brandy Melville.

I needed like a big tote bag to bring because I have my laptop in here.

My earrings are, I can't say.

I thrifted this bracelet actually a while back and I love it.

And then I'm wearing low-waisted jeans.

These are my jeans.

I got them at a vintage store in New York.

Guys, that was so easy.

That was so easy.

I fear that it actually will never get easier, but you know.

In case any of you are wondering where to find the most expensive groceries in New York, look no further.

This is the place.

It's called Happier Grocery.

I unfortunately love it here.

I would honestly compare it to Erewhon in LA.

Essentially, it's just a very expensive bougie grocery store

and occasionally I like to pop in here Huge emphasis on occasionally

because I really cannot be doing this every day and I was pretty hungry So I decided to grab some lunch.

I have my lunch here.

Don't let this fool you I do not always eat this for lunch.

This is very healthy I've been dealing with some like stomach issues

and I honestly like don't really know what's happening So I've been trying to like eat better see if that helps

I feel like if you have had like stomach problems, you know, it's like such a trial and error thing i'm gonna eat this for lunch really quickly

suddenly after i ate my chicken rice bowl it dawned on me

that i had a facial this day

so i frantically took my makeup off i tried to do

that before facials i hopped on the train

and made it to mario bedeski which is where my facial was i had a big pimple on my nose

So I was hoping that she'd be able to help it a little bit and she definitely did Feeling good?

Yeah, it feels really good It's surprising, vibrating

Okay guys, I just got out of my facial I feel like I'm glowing

That was an amazing facial It was like 10 out of 10, I actually fell asleep So I don't really remember much about it But from what I do remember,

it was good As I'm editing this vlog, I'm realizing how perfect of a day this truly was.

After my facial, I did some shopping.

This was like the perfect, truly the perfect day for me.

You guys know where I will be September 4th.

I'm obsessed with Rode and I was freaking out when I saw this.

I'm their biggest fan.

I'm going to show you guys a little haul of what I got later.

I'm back home from my facial and I still feel so good.

I feel really good.

I feel refreshed I actually just got a quick shower I want to run to the laundromat quickly

because I have honestly so much laundry

that needs to be done I kind of dread going to the laundromat because I don't know.

I feel like everyone dreads it, but I do choose to do the service where they wash it for me

so at least I don't have to like sit and wait for it.

I think it's because I'm on the third floor of my apartment

so I have to lug my laundry up three flights of stairs which is not- these are first world problems.

I'm gonna go drop my laundry off.

Look at these beautiful flowers my friend got me.

They're so beautiful.

Okay let's go.

okay guys so i decided to be spontaneous

and on the way home from the laundromat i decided to stop at this wine bar

that i always walk by and i always want to stop in and i just like never do

oh hey do you just bring that out i didn't order

that oh for happy hour okay thank you

so i got myself a glass of wine they also just brought out for me a breadboard with cheese

and olives which which I didn't think was happening.

Actually, you just saw me very confused because I didn't order that.

Oh, hey, did you just bring that out?

But I guess they bring it out for happy hour, so.

This is my lucky day.

Well, happy hour is every day, so that doesn't make sense.

100

But I did bring my book because I was hoping to just sit somewhere and read.

101

So this is the book I'm reading.

102

If you guys watched my vlog, I think it was a couple vlogs ago where I bought this book, I was saying that I want to just read more enjoyable fictional reads, and this one so far is really good.

103

One of the girls in the bookstore recommended it to me.

104

I have about a quarter of the book left, so I will keep you guys updated.

105

As always, if you guys have more recs, I also saw this recommended by one of you guys, which is another reason I got it Let me know

106

because I love hearing what you guys recommend for me I trust you guys and yeah, i'm just gonna enjoy my wine and the view.

107

It's like beautiful outside And i'm romanticizing my life alone

108

So this is definitely one of the scarier things I think

109

to do alone is sitting at a restaurant by yourself Especially

110

like on the street in front of like everyone walking by and especially filming it So we're really out here, but if I can do it, you guys can do it too. So.

111

Oh, thank you.

112

In case you didn't catch that, this girl who was walking said that she wanted to do what I was doing

113

because she thought it was really cute and fun.

114

I don't know why I didn't respond properly.

115

I just said thank you.

116

Like, that doesn't even make sense.

117

I don't know.

118

Was I, like, nervous?

119

I was caught off guard.

120

And I hope she does do that.

121

Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?

Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
