this is your inspiration to just do things alone, do things scared,

do things even if it makes you uncomfortable because that's where growth happens and we're just on a little adventure by ourselves.

i said i was gonna go outside and get food

but i ended up just not

and i door dashed a bagel sandwich like how they spelled my name sierra maybe that's an r

but it really does look like an e what do you think sira

so that's sira that's sira for sure everyone say hi to nick

we're in new york girls oh and i am about to watch some gossip girl i'm like whoa

you're in the home of the bagel don't don't think no thoughts just bagel don't think anything

That was the crispiest crack of a can I've ever heard

didn't even know um just woke up from my nap i dreamt

that i woke up i woke up in this hotel room except it was 12 30 a .m

and i missed the event you know how it's confusing

when you wake up from a nap in general

but waking up from a nap in a hotel in another city we're just doing a plain black dress

and some black pumps i'm calling it a day because i figured black might be the move for this event.

Okay, let's do this.

We hope I run into somebody that I know because I am going to just about everything this week alone, but that's okay.

That's kind of what we need right now.

I just cleaned up everything, packed up all my bags, and then we're going to head over to

my next hotel that I have to drop off my bags at

because I can't check in yet and then I think while I wait until check -in, I might go shopping.

Maybe text a few friends and see if they want to get coffee or something. Who knows?

The world is my oyster.

This top is from Sweet Chilling.

Jeans are Levi's and shoes are, to be honest, I'm not sure what the shoes are.

Oh, and the shoes are Madewell.

We have my coach watch and this little necklace also from Brandy.

Let's go meet Sakina for a little coffee date and a shopping date and it's going to be so fun.

I haven't seen her, I think, since the last time I was in New York, which is crazy.

It's a good travel bag What?

Look at this room.

Stop it right now.

Wow.

What's in here?

What is this?

Cute.

Okay, first bathroom look oh it's huge my sister is gonna

freak out I need to send her a picture right now guys

and they have diptyque in their bathroom this is actually the reason why I booked this hotel all the hearts

A glass of Pinacruzio in a beautiful view of Gossip Girl on the TV.

living it up right now i guess i had a little

bit too much wine to drink i ended up taking a nap until 10 30 the event started at 10

and i'm so tired but i guess we have to rally I can't believe myself

We're done with makeup I don't even know what I'm wearing yet guys Help Okay

I think this is the outfit That we're going with

hey guys i am back from my night out

and i had a really good time i ran into so many friends

and honestly i was so well rested i wasn't as tired as i thought i would be

because i took my my big one my big nap um

so that was good

and then yeah i just had a good time i went to the event

and um just got to catch up with so many friends

that i haven't seen in a long time

and now i'm gonna go to bed and get super cozy

and super comfy and then wake up tomorrow

and maybe get some room service breakfast

and then i think i'm gonna go for a little walk to the park that's nearby

and then possibly meet up with my friends after but i'll keep you guys updated good night

i woke up at one today i never ever ever do

that but i kind of did go to bed at 5 a .m last night

but i organized i don't know why i decided last night was the time to do

that but i wanted to wake up with a clean room

so that's what i did i really organized and cleaned and then took a shower, did all my skincare, and then I called Amara for like an hour.

We just talked.

The original plan was to wake up and order breakfast.

Missed that.

outfit of the day this dress is from sweet chilling my

shoes are made well again even though these gave me blisters last time whatever it's okay

and i'm also going to be wearing my Mew Mew bag.

We're bringing her back.

Bringing back the Mew Mew for New York.

And she matches my shoes.

So I still don't really know what the plan is.

I just need to find food.

So today is actually the 25th anniversary of 9 -11.

So I can actually hear some type of memorial thing going on outside

so maybe i'll go check that out and walk to the park and who knows i might go to

the actual 9 -11 memorial site i mean what are the

chances i'm going to be in new york on the 25th anniversary of 9 -11

This man just asked for my number and I had to turn him down.

I hate when they do that.

Okay, you guys.

I ended up getting the same exact dinner that I got last night because it was so good.

I took a bath after I got home because my feet hurt

so bad and I'm going to take advantage of all of the amenities in this room.

So I took a bath.

I actually got pretty sad for a second because I felt so alone I know this is what I wanted.

I wanted to be alone this trip It's just a bit different from last fashion week where I was

Constantly doing something and seeing people

and I started getting kind of emotional about the 9 -11 memorial today

and i listened to all the voice memos and it just made me

so heartbroken again like it does every single year now we're here we're gonna eat

and i have a von dutch party i guess tonight he's calling me my best friend no literally

and then oh my god what

nothing i didn't get a single thing at brandy isn't

that crazy are you okay i know well

because i had a shopping day yesterday i was kind of

satisfied with my purchases how much did you spend yesterday i

100

don't even want to talk about it right i mean it

101

wasn't like it's not like i went on like a crazy crazy spending spree it was just like

102

so you spent like three hundred thousand dollars is what i'm hearing it feels like

103

that a little bit okay guys we're ready to go to

104

the von dutch party i'm going alone to everything i know i've already talked about this it's really scary

105

but that's what we're here for we're doing things

106

and we're doing them alone and we're doing them to get out of our comfort zone

107

and meet new friends meet new people

108

and just really be okay with being alone that's what this whole trip was for really

109

so i believe last night i ended up running into a lot of friends

110

so it turned out really good but let me show you my outfit

111

okay this is the outfit of the night a little black dress my vivian westwood these same shoes

112

that i've been wearing every single night

113

because they're just my going out heels i feel kind of crazy last time i wore a sweater leaving

114

because i just didn't want to walk in my super nice

115

fancy hotel lobby looking like i don't know i just wanted to be a little more classy

116

so maybe i'll throw on a sweater

117

but honestly i think i'll be fine this is your inspiration

118

to just do things alone do things scared do things even

119

Voor wie is deze video geschikt?

Deze video is perfect voor beginners en gevorderde leerlingen die hun engels spreekvaardigheid oefenen met een informeel, alledaags dialect. Het is ideaal als je wilt leren om zelfverzekerd te praten over reizen, dagelijkse activiteiten en kleine avonturen. De casual toon maakt het een leuk materiaal voor schaduwspreken – probeer de zinnen na te spreken terwijl je de video kijkt, en je zult merken dat je intonatie en vloeiendheid snel verbeteren!

Woorden en uitdrukkingen om te onthouden

"the world is my oyster": Dit betekent dat alles mogelijk is. Gebruik het wanneer je optimistisch bent over een nieuwe situatie, bijvoorbeeld: "Vandaag ga ik shoppen – de wereld is mijn oyster!"
"rally": Hier betekent het "opkomen voor jezelf" na een slaperige of moeilijke tijd. Bijvoorbeeld: "Ik was zo moe, maar ik moest rally om naar het evenement te gaan."
"living it up": Dit wil zeggen dat je het erg leuk hebt en geniet van het leven. Bijvoorbeeld: "Met een glas wijn en een mooi uitzicht ben ik echt living it up!"

Hoe de accent goed te krijgen

De spreker heeft een relaxed, Amerikaanse accent. Let op de kortere uitspraak van woorden zoals "gonna" (in plaats van "going to") en "wanna" (in plaats van "want to"). Om deze klanken te leren, probeer de shadowing techniek: pauzeer de video na elke zin en spreek hem direct na, net zo snel en met dezelfde intonatie. Let ook op de "schwa" -klank (een zachte "uh" -geluid) in woorden zoals "about" of "hotel" – dit maakt je Engels natuurlijker klinken. Met wat oefening zul je zien dat je deze accenttrucs snel onder de knie krijgt!

Leer engels met video's zoals deze is niet alleen leuk, maar ook super effectief. Dus zet de video op, start met schaduw spreken en geniet van je eigen taalavontuur – net zoals de spreker in New York!

Grammatica in deze video

De structuren die de spreker het meest gebruikt, met de exacte woorden uit de video:

Structuur	In de video
Present perfect continuous have/has been + -ing — iets dat eerder begon en nog bezig is	i've been wearing · i've been doing · i've been breaking
Present perfect have/has + voltooid deelwoord — iets uit het verleden dat nu nog telt	I've ever heard · haven't seen · i've already talked
Betrekkelijke bijzinnen who / which + zin — extra informatie over een persoon of ding	York, which is · man who took
Mogelijkheid met “might / may” might/may + werkwoord — iets is mogelijk maar niet zeker	might be · might go

Wat is de Shadowing-techniek?

Shadowing is een wetenschappelijk onderbouwde taalleermethode die oorspronkelijk is ontwikkeld voor professionele tolkentraining en gepopulariseerd door polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. De methode is eenvoudig maar krachtig: je luistert naar native Engelse audio en herhaalt het onmiddellijk hardop — als een schaduw die de spreker volgt met slechts 1–2 seconden vertraging. In tegenstelling tot passief luisteren of grammaticadrills, dwingt shadowing je hersenen en mondspieren om echte spraakpatronen tegelijkertijd te verwerken en te reproduceren. Onderzoek toont aan dat het de uitspraaknauwkeurigheid, intonatie, ritme, verbonden spraak, luisterbegrip en spreekvaardigheid aanzienlijk verbetert — waardoor het een van de meest effectieve methoden is voor IELTS Speaking-voorbereiding en echte Engelse communicatie.
