I moved to New York alone recently,
2
and this is how much I've been spending in a week living here.
3
And this is coming from a girlie that loves eating out,
4
loves going shopping, and needs her wallet taken away.
5
So ever since I moved to New York,
6
one of the main questions I've gotten is,
7
how do you afford to live there?
8
And girl, I don't even know.
9
Life has gotten so expensive.
10
Literally as much as I just bought, $8.
11
And every time I stepped foot outside,
12
it's like minus $100 in my bank account,
13
but I need to do better.
14
I decided that this week I was going to be tracking my finances
15
and actually paying attention to the things I spend money on
16
And in this video i'm going to be calculating everything at the end You're going to be seeing everything
17
that I spend money on and just the reality of living in new york
18
and how much it costs to live here It's gotten
19
so bad to the point where i'm too scared to even check my bank account
20
So first let's start off with a little breakdown of my
21
monthly expenses Since I will be incorporating these into the total amount that I spent every week So for one,
22
every month at the beginning of the month,
23
I will spend $133 on a metro card so that I get unlimited rides,
24
which means that I spend around $33 per week on transportation.
25
I usually start my days by going to the gym.
26
I've been going almost every day, you guys.
27
I've been getting addicted to the gym.
28
I would say around five times a week.
29
And my gym membership costs me $60,
30
which means I'm spending around $16 per week.
31
So I just got to Chinatown.
32
And this is usually where I come to pick up my fruits
33
and veggies and the stuff here is always so fresh and yummy So let's go pick out some stuff Okay,
34
so I came here with a $20 bill and I wasted around 15 but then I let them keep the rest
35
I just picked up my weekly groceries.
36
I've been motivating myself to cook more from home.
37
For the longest time, I refused to cook.
38
I kept eating out, ordering Postmates.
39
And not only was that not healthy,
40
but it was also draining my bank account.
41
But now, I've been having more fun with cooking.
42
Every week, I try to cook new things.
43
And the thing that excites me most about cooking now is shopping at Whole Foods.
44
Some things that I buy from here every single week is steak.
45
Of course, a carton of eggs.
46
I always make sure to stock up on some bone broth.
47
This stuff is really high in protein.
48
And I'll literally just drink this alone.
49
I saw Whole Foods had this pistachio milk and I'm really excited to try this.
50
I got some ingredients this week to make pasta.
51
I like getting myself a fun drink every week.
52
I honestly don't really eat chips anymore,
53
but these, these are my go-to.
54
I got some lettuce.
55
For my Whole Foods grocery haul today, I spent $57.
56
Later this night, I did end up spending money on ramen,
57
but because I had a discount,
58
basically every month my credit card gives me $15 off Uber Eats.
59
So this whole dinner only cost me $12.
60
So once a week, I like to dedicate a day to taking myself on a solo date.
61
I basically will get into a cute outfit and just spend the day exploring by myself.
62
And I always look forward to this because I have a huge list of places I've been wanting to go check out.
63
A lot of it is food places and cafes.
64
And right now, I'm actually headed to this spot in the East Village.
65
The pictures online look so yummy,
66
so I'm excited to try it out
67
and before we go in let me give you a little outfit of the day so i had
68
gone out to do some shopping whenever i got exploring i ended up going into every little shop
69
that catches my attention this area is full of such good thrift shops
70
and i actually ended up buying a few things i had
71
gone to the muji store i have been on the lookout for a new planner
72
and i just picked up some stationary stuff i didn't end
73
up really doing much for the rest of the day besides just staying in my apartment.
74
the next morning i decided i wanted to go
75
and work at a coffee shop sometimes it's the only way
76
to get myself to be productive like to get me to
77
focus rewarding myself with a little seven drink will do the job
78
so i usually don't go for coffee
79
but i had been hearing really good things about this one like this has been getting hyped up
80
and i had to come try it i do love coffee the only issue is
81
that it tends to be too strong for me so i just don't drink it as often but this is really good.
82
I think I'll give this a 9.5 out of 10.
83
Like the flavor is so good.
84
I want to chug this but the reason I wouldn't give it a 10 is because it is on the stronger side.
85
I do still think this is worth it though.
86
I brought this little planner with me that I just bought yesterday.
87
I'm just gonna sit here with my little coffee,
88
listening to music, writing in my planner.
89
I feel like this is so much more of a vibe than doing it at home.
90
And this park I just found is so cute.
91
Today I decided that I was going to spend the day running errands,
92
specifically the ones I've been avoiding.
93
I am planning on going to the gym at some point,
94
so I am in my gym outfit.
95
Right now I'm going to go get my eyebrows done.
96
i believe i was born in the right generation
97
because i don't know what i would do without tiktok like
98
i love going on there to find new recipes i have
99
this whole folder with a bunch a different recipe safe
100
that I want to try and at least once a week I try something new.
101
I kind of already dug into this but it's supposed to be a thick Greek yogurt bowl.
102
I kept seeing people make this on my for you page and I ended up making my own version of it.
103
It turned out so good.
104
I basically had to strain some Greek yogurt a couple days ago.
105
I left it in the fridge for around two days so the consistency of the yogurt is super thick.
106
I highly recommend you try this.
107
It's such an easy healthy snack to make from home.
108
This like fully satisfies my cravings.
109
I'm also just eating some mango.
110
But anyways, this week I realized that I eat out way too often.
111
The fact that it's almost every day now is kind of a problem.
112
Like sometimes I will try to make the effort to try and cook more from home,
113
but I need to try a little harder.
114
So I'm officially banning myself.
115
Starting today, no more eating out.
116
So after I had hit the gym this day,
117
I was craving a filling nutritious meal and I just couldn't resist getting myself something from Springbone.
118
I have been so obsessed with this place.
119
I also realized I had an appointment this day to go do a little hair blowout.
120
I had gone to go check out the spot I had seen on TikTok.
121
As you could probably tell by now, I am easily influenced.
122
I had heard a lot of good reviews on this place.
123
They basically do these $30 blowouts and they do such an amazing job.
124
I'm so excited right now.
125
I have been getting ready all day and preparing because I'm going to be going to a concert tonight,
126
which is officially the most expensive purchase i've made all week
127
i decided to get last minute tickets to go see the weekend
128
which is my favorite artist by the way he's genuinely the only artist
129
that i listen to on repeat like every single year he's always my number one artist
130
and i've been dying to go to one of his concerts for years i think it cost me 200
131
but i don't regret it because it's an experience
132
when it comes to spending money on memories
133
that i'll never forget i never see it as a waste
134
especially with everything going on i'm always encouraging myself to live my life
135
while i'm so young and just pushing myself to do things even
136
if they're scary so i'm getting ready right now to go to this last minute concert alone
137
which i've never done by the way
138
but i have this huge bucket list of things
139
that i want to try doing alone
140
and going to a concert is one of them i am a little nervous but mostly excited
141
i'm just gonna finish getting ready off camera and i'll see you when i'm there
142
I'm so excited.
143
so day five was one of those days where i didn't
144
really do much like i literally just stayed in my apartment
145
watched netflix did some deep cleaning just had a little reset
146
which means i ended up spending zero dollars this day i didn't eat out i cooked all my meals from home
147
so saturday morning i got to go to this cafe i've
148
been really wanting to go check out they mostly serve tea
149
and these really yummy looking desserts i had actually gone on a little date this day
150
so of course i ended up spending zero dollars
151
so i was about to start cooking dinner until i realized i was missing a bunch of ingredients
152
so i just threw on a sweater
153
and now i'm quickly walking to the grocery store they have peonies i didn't come for this
154
but it's so rare to see them in stores i have to get one
155
so this night i had been craving a steak
156
so i had gone to the store i picked up some ingredients
157
that i was missing as well as some flowers i've slowly been improving my recipe
158
and i think it turned out pretty delish.
159
Look at my creation.
160
So as I've mentioned before,
161
my recent obsession has been steak.
162
Then earlier this week, I had made some mac and cheese
163
that I kind of just added onto the side it looks
164
so yummy i feel like every time i make it it gets juicier
165
and juicier but okay let's dig in this is giving wife right now
166
one of the most exciting parts about moving to new york is the way
167
that there is
168
so much to do here like i think it is actually impossible to get bored living here especially
169
when you're new here i feel like every day is an adventure every time i go out there's
170
so much to explore i constantly have this huge list of cafes
171
and new food spots that I want to go try
172
but the downside of this is that you end up spending
173
so much money like basically just as much as when you're visiting
174
and so sometimes the only way to get myself to not spend
175
so much money is literally just trap myself in my apartment
176
sometimes I'll literally go a couple days without leaving my apartment
177
which is not a huge problem for me
178
because I honestly love my apartment and I tell myself
179
that I should be trying to enjoy the rent I'm paying like today I don't have too much planned Just this morning,
180
I was planning and heading to a little market nearby and picking up some stuff for my cats.
181
But other than that, today will be a boring day.
182
And I'm going to try to make it my goal to not spend money on anything unless I absolutely have to.
183
So this is the breakfast that I look forward to every morning.
184
I've been making myself this pistachio matcha.
185
Then i like to make myself either a yogurt
186
or oatmeal bowl i like to come
187
and just sit by my window with my cat
188
and we just like to drive here this morning i was
189
going to try out some of these new eye patches
190
that were recently gifted to me they are rose gold illuminating eye masks
191
so this was another one of those days where i didn't
192
really end up spending much i had gone out on a
193
walk i had stopped by a market to pick up some stuff for my cat this is me admiring some flowers
194
Then I had an event this day,
195
which was this ipsy gifting suite They were doing free manicures,
196
which I was so grateful for because my nails had been so crusty all week They gave me a free matcha,
197
which was now my second matcha of the day
198
i got to try out a bunch of their new makeup products i met one of their makeup artists
199
which was the sweetest she did the cutest little makeup look on me i was obsessed with this lip combo
200
that she gave me like i was taking notes from her but that ended up being all that i did this day.
201
I've been laying here in my bed trying to figure out how much I spend per week.
202
I'm like writing down every expense I made,
203
putting everything into different categories, and it's looking scary.
204
Like somebody needs to come and take my credit card away from me.
205
So this week, according to my calculations,
206
it seems that I spent approximately $1,130.
207
This is not including my rent by the way basically i added up all the money
208
that i spend on food groceries eating out all of my
209
subscriptions transportation bills i have like for my wi-fi phone gym other miscellaneous things like
210
when i go shopping randomly i will say
211
that my expenses do look very different every week i have become a lot less impulsive
212
when it comes to spending my money
213
because there used to be a point in time where i used to blow money on things like clothes
214
which is super unnecessary like now If I spend a large amount of money on something,
215
like I said earlier, it's usually on experiences because to me that seems a lot more worth it.
216
Like recently, I don't really go shopping for clothes anymore unless I go thrifting or I'm looking for something specific.
217
It does seem like I spend the most amount of money on food, like eating out.
218
It seems like I spent $194 on food, $12 on subscriptions, $33 on transportation.
219
So if you multiply these by four,
220
transportation is like $133 a month.
221
My bills came out to $57 dollars luckily my apartment doesn't have me pay for utilities
222
but if you want to include my rent then the total comes closer to
223
so anyways i am done with this video i hope you
224
enjoyed this probably is my sign to leave new york just
225
kidding i've honestly been having a lot of fun here i think it's been super worth it i will say
226
that living here is super expensive
227
but you know i had heard this quote somewhere someone said in your 20s move to an expensive city
228
that you can't forward because it'll force you to figure it out
229
and as you saw just looking at my expenses this week gave me
230
so much anxiety like living in such an expensive city motivates me to get it together
231
because this is not acceptable but it does make me
232
so grateful though it's just so crazy to think
233
that there was once a point in time back in like 2021
234
when i was first starting my youtube channel
235
and i got my first ever brand deal which was around 800
236
and i remember literally crying because
237
that was the biggest paycheck i had ever received in my life
238
and it just makes me so happy that i've been able to turn something
239
that i love doing into my full-time job a lot of
240
you guys always ask me in the comments what i do for a living
241
and it's literally just been youtube for the last years
242
which is crazy to think about like yes
243
that is how i've been able to do all the traveling
244
and the crazy shopping videos
245
and moving into my dream apartment it is all thanks to you guys i'm sending you all love
246
and kisses feel free to go attack me in the comments
247

シャドーイングとは？英語上達に効果的な理由
シャドーイング（Shadowing）は、もともとプロの通訳者養成プログラムで開発された言語学習法で、多言語習得者として知られるDr. Alexander Arguelles によって広く普及されました。方法はシンプルですが非常に効果的：ネイティブスピーカーの英語を聞きながら、1〜2秒の遅延で声に出してすぐに繰り返す——まるで「影（shadow）」のように話者を追いかけます。文法ドリルや受動的なリスニングと異なり、シャドーイングは脳と口の筋肉が同時にリアルタイムで英語を処理・再現することを強制します。研究により、発音精度、抑揚、リズム、連音、リスニング力、そして会話の流暢さが大幅に向上することが確認されています。IELTSスピーキング対策や自然な英語コミュニケーションを目指す方に特におすすめです。
