Shadowing Practice: GET READY WITH ELI FOR HER BIRTHDAY TRIP - Learn English Speaking with Video

hi everyone and welcome to the new video so today it's just me and this video will be about

basically me getting ready for my birthday trip so it's like just the usual stuff like some

i'm gonna get my nails done lashes and stuff like this also i'm on a diet now which is like

no sugar diet i've done it before and i love it so much it does the best for my skin

i feel like deep bloated as well like i it makes me feel way less bloated

so i love it

so that's what i'm doing i also try to do uh

pilates at least every other day um the best is

if i do it the best day it doesn't have to be anything tough

um but um i like to do something

and then also go for walks because walks are great um

so today i didn't film because my camera was dead

so sorry for that but basically i just got my lashes done

and for all of you wondering what i get done it's a caddy um 1d which is like

like a lash on lash basically it's not like two lashes on one lash

which i used to get done before that was 2d this one is 1d

and it's i think it's 11 to 13 millimeters or 12 to 14 so that's my

lash combo

and uh i also what i did today i walked around

a little bit in the center i uh bought a little just black headband

because i wanted for one of my outfits

and then i um oh yeah in the morning i worked out i did pilates by izzy i find her workout

super super great i did 40 minutes no equipment workout at home uh

and i love them so much like they burn so bad

but i feel great after them so that's it for today today is wednesday

so tomorrow i have quite a lot things to do like organizing

and getting stuff done for my birthday so tomorrow will definitely be more entertaining

and i'll take you guys with me good morning everyone it's thursday morning

and uh i'm just about to do my workout

so i'll show you what type of workout i do like i will not video myself working out because

but um i'll show you on the laptop uh so yeah

and then today is my um busiest day

because i have to get my nails removed as in like with the things

that i'm getting done it's not like i'm super super busy doing something important but just getting ready for my birthday

so I have to get my manicure removed pedicure done

and I need to pick up my shoes because I got them fixed

because my Louboutins were just ruined like absolutely freaking ruined

because those shoes are just not compatible with Prague like let me tell you they are not like

there are these little tiny blocks of brick

that are like super close to one another

and they basically make up most of the pavements

or like sidewalks here and

if you walk there with the Louboutins the heel gets in between those little bricks

but then when you want to pull it out it scratches the

and scrapes the heel so my heels were really like about to give up So yeah,

I got them fixed and they're ready so I'm so happy they got it done before my birthday.

But other than

that my day is not gonna be super super busy i'll just i'd like to go to the post office

and but anyway that's not a thing for this video that's just the boring stuff

that i have to do but um yeah i'll show you the fun stuff

so let's get on with the day

so today i made a little bit of a change

and i am gonna do killer abs uh just 20 minutes

because i did a full body workout that was a bit longer yesterday

so today i'm just doing a quick one uh and it's called it's by train

with gains by brains i guess um and normally i would do this one

but i did that like a couple days ago it's pilates by izzy

and like i don't love to repeat my workouts

so i just decided to do this one guys i'm just good i'm just getting ready to go

and get my manicure removed but um these are acrylic nails yeah

and i don't know um

if i love them like i really like what they look like

but i just think it's super super bad for my nail

but always when i get the gel nails you know like the gel

that um they basically mold on your finger with

that little i hope you know what i mean um then

my um they always just fall off like they always break

or something maybe i'm not careful enough with them

but like it just doesn't work for me

so i don't really know what to do i'm getting these removed

because i'm getting uh gel ones done tomorrow

because i want to switch up

because it's really bad for my nails i can feel it like i can just feel them going really soft

and like wavy and it's not good

and also i feel like you can't see it now

but the skin around the nail um it doesn't look the

best whenever i get these then it'll always look really dry

so i want to switch salon also because of that um

so i don't really know what to do

if you have any like advices or tips how to um make them last longer

or something like the gel ones

because i'm for sure switching to the gel ones now because these really really destroy my nails

so if you have any tips for how to keep the gel ones from snapping

and breaking and everything like that please let me know i'm back home

and i just got my manicure taken off i will try not to show you my nails guys

because they're absolutely disgusting like i hate my nails um

so i will try not to show you

and um i am getting them done tomorrow again

so hopefully um they work out great

but i'm just about to go for my pedicure appointment

and i'm just so excited um i am not sure

if i'll show you the color maybe but i don't know

if it's a good idea showing my feet online like i don't know there are some freaks out there

so maybe i'll just show you my manicure tomorrow

because i'll be getting matching manicure and pedicure

and now i'm just uh gonna well no not now now i'm gonna go

but after that i'm gonna go pick up my shoe

so i'm gonna show you once they're fixed

and then I'll just come home make coffee sit out in the balcony

100

because it's super super nice it's a really nice day it's sunny it's 27 degrees like fall is starting

101

and I'm kind of ready for it

102

but the weather is not like doesn't have the same vibe you know

103

but i'm kind of feeling fall already

104

so i'd like all of us to get on the same vibe on the same frequency

105

and just be ready for for fall

106

but anyway i'm gonna read in the balcony

107

and then i'm gonna clean up here a little bit maybe

108

when i'm picking up my shoes i'll go for a little walk in the center

109

and yeah that'll be it for today i think

110

but i'll obviously take you along with me for everything

111

so let's go i am just fresh

112

out of my um pedicure appointment and i am so so happy with the nails

113

um but i just wanted to tell you guys

114

that i will get the same color for my manicure as

115

i did for pedicure i think i already told you

116

but it is the time for you now to guess what color i'm getting in the comments

117

so go and comment it now because i will be revealing it basically tomorrow

118

but for you it will be soon um

119

so yeah make your guesses down below

120

and now i'm off to pick up my shoes

121

so i'll show you what they look like because i also got um like the soles kind of fixed

122

fixed so yeah i'll show you

123

i have my fixed shoes here

124

so um basically what they needed to do the heel was

125

totally like you cannot imagine like this was totally off this wasn't there it was kicked off

126

because bragg and these shoes actually any heels not just these

127

but um what also happens with the loupoutons is

128

that um basically the sole scrapes off

129

and you need to get this after oh my god i'm

130

showing you guys my nails please don't um hate on me

131

for my nails i'm insecure about them already freaking enough uh

132

but anyway also um the tip of the heel

133

or like this was just a bit broken on these uh

134

so they fixed it all and they look as

135

if they were new obviously then there is this now

136

but i mean um if you're getting them fixed that's always gonna be there

137

because they need to put like a new soul there

138

so yeah but they look great and they are ready for my birthday outfit

139

but guys actually talking about this you know how i always like to be extra

140

and all that and i'm doing all this oh preparation for um my trip

141

and everything so basically my wait till you see my birthday outfit it's actually i think it's quite underwhelming

142

but it's about the energy it gives of like this for

143

me like bad bitch like like uh i don't know i

144

just love the outfit even though it's a bit simple

145

and i never really go for simple um

146

so yeah just wait for the picture

147

and then let me know what you think but i honestly love it

148

and i think i'm gonna be super comfortable in it

149

and i think i'm gonna feel super confident in it as well so yeah i can't wait to show you so

150

I just finished my manicure appointment and as you can see the color is red

151

and I love it so

152

so much like I love how the manicure turned out um yeah I'm just super happy with it um

153

but anyway oh

154

if there is a different quality now than in the previous videos I'm sorry I forgot my camera

155

so I'm taking this video on my phone uh

156

but yeah this is it for today actually we just have two days until we go i'm

157

so excited and this week it's the monza race week

158

so um that's also super exciting since it's gimme's home race

159

i'm gonna be like super super excited to watch it i really hope it goes well

160

um and yeah i think that's it for now tomorrow i'm going to do a little bit of shopping

161

so i'll also take you guys along with me

162

and yeah that's the plan for now hi guys

163

so it's what is it saturday and i just finished shopping

164

but i didn't buy any clothes that's why i didn't show you

165

it's the very last day of me getting ready for my trip basically

166

because tomorrow it's just gonna be packing and like ironing

167

and all the boring stuff

168

so i'll actually just show you what i got um in this it's like oh it's something like sephora

169

but more like skincare hair care and that type of stuff um

170

so first i got um this hair serum for hair fall

171

because i don't know why but my hair just falls constantly

172

and i hate it so i got this

173

and i also have the shampoo for hair loss from this

174

brand uh in case you wonder what shampoo i use

175

but i don't know i don't think my hair is

176

that great that anyone would want any like inspiration from my hair routine

177

or something like that and then i have um this blow dry cream

178

which is basically for um what is it called heat protection

179

when you blow dry your hair because i don't use it heat protection and it's

180

really bad uh for my hair

181

and then i this was a present from them um

182

because they just gave it to me with the just with

183

everything else i bought oh my god my eyes sorry guys for the sun this is insane oh

184

and now you can't even see me okay i'll just finish like this

185

so i got this and that's um i think a fragrance for the apartment

186

which is actually great and then i got this brush

187

and that's basically it i wanted to buy some clothes

188

but they didn't really have anything nice in zara

189

or anywhere else where I went so I didn't get anything with

190

that I think this is everything for the video I hope

191

you enjoyed um watching me get ready for my birthday trip

192

193

that I have to have like everything kind of in place

194

and everything ready and like feel

195

or like get my nails done get my pedicure done get my lashes done

196

and everything like around that

197

but um first of all it's my birthday that's why I mostly did

198

that and also um like if I'm already going somewhere

199

and um I know we're gonna be just going out to places

200

and we're just gonna be having good time I also want to feel my best

201

so that's why I did all of this

202

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.
