Good morning from a snowy and windy squirrel forest and welcome to vlogmas day two.

18
and there's a couple of other squirrels around who i'm not sure who they are they haven't eaten yet oh
19
this is a new squirrel
20
oh sylvie's coming
21
one or two great tits now have the confidence to come and feed from my hand
22
and i think they're older great tits and they don't like to be too involved with the chaos of the other birds.
23
My hand is getting cold if you want food.
24
Can we do this quickly?
25
There's like five squirrels around but they're quite busy chasing each other so no one's really sitting down to eat.
26
Oh it's windy.
27
Sylvia's here now.
28
Oh yes that looks lovely.

36
It is so beautiful but it is time to go home.
37
I've been here two hours and I'm a bit hungry, I need a coffee and need to warm up.
38
It's so nice.
39
I love the snow.
40
Okay let's go.
41
Look how much snow is on my bag.
42
so So for lunch, I have made a pasta salad with roasted walnuts.
43
And then I made a vegan aleoli, which was silken tofu, sesame seeds, lemon, salt, and olive oil.
44
We love aleoli, but we get a lot of stomach acid after we eat it.
45
So this is like a healthy, high -protein version.
46
And I think it's okay.
47
It doesn't taste as greasy.
48
Anyway, I'll dig in.
49
Hello, good morning, how are you?
50
You're very snowy.
51
I love your footprints.
52
So I've done a little bit of decorating and I'm feeling a bit more festive, but I have a dilemma.
53
I want to bring the Christmas tree in.
54
We have two outside and since it's below zero, they won't lose the needles, but I know as soon as I bring it into the house,
55
it's going to start losing the needles
56
and it's still quite a few days until Christmas and I don't want to have a dead tree on Christmas Day.
57
I want the proper tree up.
58
I usually switch off the heating in this room
59
when the tree is in here
60
and then it's more cozy to have a nice blanket
61
and watch TV and then the tree doesn't lose the needles as quickly.
62
I always put water into the the base of the tree holder.
63
Do you have any advice?
64
What can I do to stop the needles falling off?
65
Really?
66
Yeah.
67
No, it's fine, don't worry.
68
Give them a wiggle.
69
I can't be bothered to put up my tripod, but I'm going to make gingerbread cookies.
70
I have some very adorable cookie cutters,
71
Christmas tree, and someone actually posted me a squirrel cookie cutter.
72
So I'm gonna make squirrel gingerbread cookies. So cute!
73
oh i literally just have well i need to have 120 i have 116.
74
i keep having to remind myself that when i'm doing vlogmas i don't need to say everything perfectly
75
and the whole point of it is just to be more relaxed
76
and just film whatever and not be so focused on it being cinematic constantly.
77
Yet I'm still like fiddling with lights and trying to make it perfect
78
and maybe by the end of vlogmas it'll be very relaxed and casual.
79
I am currently melting
80
sugar and then I'm going to make the dough for the gingerbread
81
and then it has to cool for I think an hour in the fridge and then I roll it out, cut it and bake.
82
I'm struggling so much.
83
I don't know why it's not forming a proper dough.
84
It's getting better, but it was too wet so I had to add like 50 grams more flour.
85
I think when it sets in the fridge it'll be better.
86
I'm just about to sign off, but I just wanted to say a massive thank you for all the comments on Vlogmas Day One.
87
I uploaded a few hours ago and I've been reading the comments and it's definitely very motivating to do this.
88
Filming and uploading 24 videos in a month is almost what I upload in a year,
89
and I almost didn't do this because I found it too daunting,
90
but now that I've done two days and I've just finished the edit for today,
91
I feel confident I can still make the videos I want to make in terms of it being cinematic,
92
visually very nice, with nice music and some fun edits and not just be talking bits throughout the video.
93
The main reason I'm doing Vlogmas is really for you.
94
The past year and a half I've realised the power of community
95
and I have found I want to focus on my core audience and I'm less interested in creating viral content.
96
I want to create the content I want to make, but also I want to make what my core audience wants to see.
97
And since there is a community spirit, I wanted to get you involved with these videos.
98
And so I've asked my patrons for voice notes,
99
and you can send me a voice note and I'll feature them at the end of the videos.
100
These can be uplifting stories or maybe something that's happened this year
101
or something you've learned or a story about squirrels or wildlife or maybe something Christmas related.
102
This is just an opportunity to hear your voice, so please go to my Patreon.
103
It's a free post, it's public.
104
Leave me a voice note.
105
I will feature different voice notes from you throughout vlogmas.
106
Okay, I want to try and go to bed before 11.
107
It's 10 30 so I'm going to edit this and I'm going to upload this video for my patrons.
108
Good night and see you tomorrow.
109
It's winter here in Ontario, Canada and every morning at 5am I get out of bed, my cozy bed, come downstairs,
110
get my outdoor gear on, head outside to prep the backyard Bistro for all my wildlife friends who come visit me in the morning.
111
I make sure all the snow is off the deck and off the bird feeders.
112
I stock all the bird feeders with fresh food.
113
Make sure there's fresh water in the heated bird baths.
114
My squirrel boxes, which are feed boxes, are full of nuts and seeds and berries and it's a delight for them.
115
So once all that is done I come back inside make myself a nice cup of coffee
116
and watch the sun rise and wait for all my little friends to arrive.
117
That's my morning routine in the winter.
118
Everyone have yourself a wonderful holiday season and a happy new year.
119
Love, Carm McKenzie.

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.
