Shadowing Practice: Hosting Dinner + Cleaning NYC Vlog | Evelyn Ha - Learn English Speaking with Video

Oh my god, this looks so good!

Hey catcakes!

Welcome back to my channel.

Yay!

Guys, I got a haircut this morning and I'm actually obsessed.

Like, my hair is super shiny right now and healthy.

I just love it.

I got a little glaze

and it just dyed my hair a little bit darker than what it was before

because over time my hair gets a little brown from the sun and I hate that.

I hate when that happens.

I'm going to be vlogging my weekend for you guys.

It's a Saturday.

Tomorrow I'm going to be hosting a dinner with my girlfriends.

I haven't hosted at my apartment in so long.

I feel like I've just been really busy with life

and I just didn't have the time

and energy to really host anything at my apartment but I feel like I want to.

I want to challenge myself and do that

and also all my friends are super busy right now

so tomorrow is the only day that we're all able to like come together and

get dinner and catch up with each other.

Unfortunate thing for me is that I literally am not prepared at all.

Like I'm actually really stressed out right now because first of all my apartment is a whole mess.

I haven't bought groceries.

I don't even know what I'm gonna be making

so i need to like figure that out and usually

when i host i like to get flowers i like to

get like things to make my hosting more special than a normal dinner

so i'm just gonna hope

that i figure it out throughout this video i think first things first i'm gonna freaking eat something

because i'm so hungry right now it's currently 3 p.m right now

and i only have breakfast yeah i ordered some food

and it's coming so i'll catch you guys

when the food is here guys my food is here it was

so messy right now okay really i'm so excited to start cleaning

but i just don't have the energy right now

so let's fuel ourselves let me show you guys what i

ordered i ordered from this place like probably a hundred times

like every time i eat from here my friends are just not surprised at all.

Emily is leaving for a festival.

Well, not wearing this, but I have not a plan.

Don't you worry, guys.

I'm going to go to the park with my friends.

My friends are coming soon.

Are they going to come here?

Yeah, we're going to crash.

Or are you guys meeting down the line because I'm cleaning?

I don't think I've been to this restaurant in person.

They have the best kimchi fried rice.

It's so yummy.

And usually I'll get kimchi jjigae, which is like a kimchi stew but i didn't feel like eating a stew

so i got fried dumplings instead this is their fried dumplings i always procrastinate feeding myself for lunch

and then i eat by like 3

or 4 p.m i get like starving also it's like basically 4 p.m now

so i need to really hurry it up before the sun goes down cheers wow this is so good

i'm always wearing my outfit probably just to go to the rooftop and just wait what

probably a little strange you look a little strange you guys

are severely under prepared to this by the way are you gonna wear like a cardigan

or something oh i want to wear a scarf

and how are you gonna wear

that i don't know i'm gonna figure it out the pan fried dumplings

so good it's like hitting like extra hard right now

so i probably order this at least once a week

so the dinner is at 6 p.m tomorrow it'll take three i mean four girls total there's a fly in here

i'm gonna kill you like legit

why are you talking to the folks i think i understand i'm gonna kill you like the jacket

i can't wait to deep clean my apartment right now like the thing is i don't even know

if i can if i have the bandwidth to deep clean

because i'm running out of time i have other to do

i need a grocery shop to make sure i have the

things i have i need for hosting my head is all

over the place guys i definitely need to do a separate video on deep cleaning

and decluttering because i haven't done those two in

so long in my apartment right now i just feel anxious

i'm gonna watch gilmore girls for the next 30 minutes i'll catch you guys when i'm starting to clean

I'm going to make a little more fun.

I'm

going to go to the next video so

I'm

going to

go to the next video.

I'm

going to

go to the next video.

I feel like I'm housing.

I almost drug use when I'm housing.

Guys, this is my volunteer.

Hey!

I'm for charity work.

What are you even doing?

I'm about to go to the rooftop.

And I'm not wearing this, guys.

Don't worry.

my house is pretty much almost done with cleaning i'm not doing like a whole deep clean

if i was going to be doing a deep clean i'd go more crazy

100

and like be wiping down the windows and everything

101

but i just don't have the energy for that and i'll save

102

that for another video because

103

that genuinely takes like multiple days i'm not even joking for

104

basic cleaning we're pretty much done i'm just going to be

105

doing the rest of my laundry folding it where's your key

106

okay

107

so for the rest of the cleaning i'm gonna kill the fly clean the toilets i just don't like doing

108

that on camera because i just think it's like i just hate cleaning toilet

109

and i'm gonna have to brace myself for that

110

so i'm gonna do that do my laundry fold my clothes

111

and that's pretty much it with cleaning it's already like what

112

time is it right now six it's already six I was

113

gonna pick something up at this store all the way on the Upper East Side, but I feel like I won't have time for that.

114

Let's hurry up with cleaning, I guess.

115

update it is 7 30 p.m finished cleaning the rest of

116

my bathroom mops the floor throughout all the packages in the

117

hallway by the way i think unpackaging like taking packages out

118

and throwing the boxes away is probably my least favorite thing to do even though it's like not

119

that hard like I don't know something about dealing with boxes it overstimulates my sensory thing

120

and I just get so annoyed with it but anyways finished

121

that and now I'm just sitting on the couch like so tired.

122

I don't think I can even go grocery shopping today.

123

So I'm gonna do that tomorrow morning.

124

I have a meeting at 12, so I should have enough time.

125

I'm gonna be making spicy vodka pasta and then homemade Caesar salad.

126

I'm excited for that.

127

The vodka pasta is like easy to make.

128

I've made it like a ton of times.

129

And I just ordered myself food.

130

I ordered the sushi roll that I've been eating.

131

Like I had it two times this week with Emily and it's so good.

132

And I'm just going to shower, watch Gilmore Girls and go to bed really early.

133

It's 7.30 and I'm hoping to be asleep by 9.

134

I'll catch you guys tomorrow when the real deal is happening.

135

Hey you guys, it's the next day.

136

I had a very early morning.

137

I went to the gym.

138

I worked out.

139

I had a meeting.

140

We talked about our live show activity that we're going to do, and I'm beyond excited.

141

We're going to play a lot of games, and we're also going to be doing a segment where we pick people from the audience and join us for the games.

142

So it's like a lot of really exciting things going on.

143

So we were talking about that this whole morning.

144

And now it is finally time to prep and get ready for hosting dinner tonight.

145

We're doing dinner pretty early today at like 5.30, 6.

146

it's a Sunday so we want to do an early dinner unfortunately it's already 2 p.m

147

so I I'm like really stressed right now it might it might not seem like

148

that through the camera

149

but like I genuinely am really stressed I have nothing ready I don't even have groceries

150

so the only thing I got done is like pretty much cleaning my apartment

151

which my freaking sister keeps ruining after every Except she like leaves the trailer in the apartment.

152

Guys, I'm going to show you guys what I'm dealing with this entire morning.

153

Okay?

154

Like she literally looks like she's a squatter.

155

Leaving imprints all over my apartment.

156

See, I made the bed.

157

There's like little hair all over the bathroom.

158

Look at that.

159

If I brushed my hair, it's going to fall out.

160

Yeah, so you take the hair piece and put it in the trash.

161

No, you're not.

162

There's like one strand and i'm asking her to do a favor

163

and throwing out the trash and picking up my packages from the lobby

164

and guess what she's doing she's so busy on her phone scrolling on tick tock

165

why are you laying on my bed like this first of all like there's

166

so much space i know okay you need to make the bed

167

and tuck it once i'm done scrolling

168

so in like four hours i know what mom feels like

169

on a day-to-day basis like i oh my gosh oh my

170

gosh i got a few packages down in the lobby

171

and i think it's something

172

that i ordered for dinner tonight i'm gonna go pick it

173

up okay i'm back with a bunch of packages all right

174

guys this is kind of crazy i'm gonna put this on the floor

175

so last week i ordered a couple things on amazon for this dinner event

176

because i knew i would be needing things last minute

177

because this is genuinely saving the day i ordered toilet paper i was on my last roll

178

and if you have guests over you obviously need extra extra toilet paper paper towels napkin set a silver platter

179

oh my gosh i've been looking for this guys

180

these are little vase for table decoration oh my gosh i am

181

so excited for this i feel like hosting is all about vibes

182

and so i'm gonna run to the flower shop

183

and get some cute little flowers

184

and put in little things in here look how cute these

185

are oh my gosh i can't wait to get started on decorating my table

186

but thank gosh i have these oh it's really saving my day

187

because otherwise i would have been

188

so unprepared okay for these napkin sets i knew i would be needing this

189

but these are like reusable 100 cotton napkin and i just think it's

190

so luxe to have these like cotton napkins on the table oh my gosh how cute is this genuinely

191

so excited for this love

192

and this oh my gosh i just think uh silverware is just

193

so chic on a table so i don't know what i'm gonna put on here

194

but i'll figure something out i'll put something cute

195

yes oh my gosh guys i ordered a water pitcher i drink from like a little filter water

196

so whenever my guests ask for water i it feels really awkward

197

because it's not funky or cool i'm planning to fill up my this vase with water lemon

198

and maybe ice cubes and just serve it maybe i'll put like mint in here

199

and it'll be very cool and chic

200

while i'm giving everyone water oh my gosh this is

201

so cute okay i got a charcuterie board obviously my friends

202

and i love cheese and wine and grapes and all

203

that stuff i'm gonna be assorting all of that here

204

and then it also comes with dipping bowls oh my gosh

205

like look how cute i actually like this is genuinely saving my day i didn't have to prep for anything at all.

206

All I need to get is groceries and just assemble everything together

207

because oh my gosh are you freaking kidding me right now?

208

It also comes with the cheese knife and utensil and how freaking cute is this?

209

Oh my god it's a honey stick and little spoons.

210

Oh my gosh this is literally everything that I needed.

211

The last item that I ordered from Amazon are these little placemats

212

so the one i had before i don't really love them only

213

because my table is round and the placements

214

that i had originally are square so it just didn't look right

215

and i found these circular ones on amazon

216

so i want to see what how it looks like on the round table

217

adores these are more like you just put your plate on it i think this is really cute like

218

You put all your plates on here.

219

Oh my gosh.

220

Obsessed.

221

Okay, so it comes in a pack of six.

222

And I'm only going to have four people in total tonight.

223

So that's perfect.

224

Okay, guys.

225

I'm feeling so much better about hosting dinner tonight.

226

Amazon really saved my day.

227

Seriously, with all of the things that I ordered last week.

228

Now all I need to do is grocery shop, buy some flowers, and arrange everything together.

229

And my dinner will be hosted, I think.

230

Just like how this is saving my day, you can save on college and safety every day with Amazon.

231

Thanks for sponsoring today's video.

232

I'm gonna get started with grocery shopping so that we can get started with the whole crap.

233

And yeah, let's go.

234

Okay guys, I am about to go grocery shopping.

235

Put on a cardigan because every time I'm at the grocery store, I am freezing and I don't want to grocery shop anymore.

236

I love my hair.

237

I just realized everything that I'll be making pretty easy.

238

Like I've made it all the time before.

239

So it's nothing crazy.

240

I was going to make chicken parm, but then I feel like it's just too much work.

241

And also my friends, we just don't eat a lot.

242

Like I'll have a lot of food prepared and we'll have a lot of leftovers.

243

Like we'd rather eat like a bunch of like bites rather than full meals.

244

I'm deciding whether I want to make banana bread or not.

245

I'll just buy the chocolate chips and bananas.

246

Shh, shh, shh.

247

Guys, I can't stop staring at myself because of my hair.

248

Which looks stupid. Which flowers?

249

Low key, these are perfect

250

I'm gonna take this one Which is probably so expensive from here

251

These are gonna be so expensive I wanna go to a different floral shop

252

And I also need smaller flowers That I can free a circle I don't know why these are $7 That's crazy

253

Wait there's locally like pre-made charcuterie board right here I might just buy this This is honestly like cheaper guys

254

I don't know why I do that Every time a stranger passes me I give them like a little spark

255

yay my squatter is finally leaving i'll be back don't worry

256

this is just a temporary leave okay My squatter sleeve face finally.

257

Thank goodness.

258

Look at me.

259

What are you wearing?

260

I actually look kind of don't worry.

261

Oh my gosh.

262

That was an end of an era.

263

Now I am going to show you guys what I got from the grocery First off

264

Need to put on a lighter I mean need to light on a candle for the vibes obviously guys

265

Okay so they didn't have any flowers at the grocery store So I'm just gonna have to figure something out

266

I'm gonna start prepping my salad first and then I'll do the pasta closer to when my guests are arriving.

267

I don't want it to sit for too long.

268

I discovered this drink like a couple days ago

269

and I was at an Olivia Dean concert

270

and we were sitting at the VIP section

271

and then the bartender was like do you want to drink

272

and I saw sparkling water he had like lime

273

so I was like oh can I just get sparkling water

274

and lime and then he was like yeah let's do it

275

and then he saw lime juice and he I'm just going to put a little bit on top of here.

276

And it tasted so good.

277

I know it's like super good.

278

Like lime juice and sparkling water.

279

I got mint.

280

Add mint, lemon, and water.

281

it's like lemon water I think I'm gonna add a little bit more lime

282

now I'm gonna prep my salad I get a bag of croutons

283

and I expect to just crush it just as I can

284

Some garlic powder here.

285

I like to add a lot of garlic powder and a lot of pepper.

286

And then the most important part is obviously grating the parmesan.

287

Ah, it's getting everywhere.

288

All right, finished grating my parmesan cheese.

289

Just going to give it a little taste.

290

It's perfect.

291

And I'm going to grate more cheese for the salad when I put it all together.

292

I don't want the salad to get too soggy, so I'm only going to put the dressing on when the guests arrive.

293

okay after i chop up my lettuce i'm gonna go wash

294

it one more time i get kind of crazy about my salad being clean

295

okay this is like a lot of onions

296

but this is only one whole onion okay i'm gonna do a ton of garlic

297

okay all the ingredients are prepped i'm looking for this to dry i wish i had

298

that spinning thing but i don't know why i got rid of it okay now

299

that all my ingredients are prepped my eyes are

300

so dry right now i'm actually gonna go crazy okay

301

so i'm gonna set up the table and use the napkin that i got from amazon

302

to decorate my table i'll show you guys how i fold it

303

and then this is where i'll put all the utensils in

304

and then i'll put it on top of the plate

305

and it'll look super cute so i'll show you guys what i do

306

so first you get a square napkin and then you fold it in half

307

and then fold it in another half and just make sure this whole time while you're doing it it's very accurate

308

once you fold it in a square grab a little edge from here i'm gonna use an edge

309

that doesn't have the tag flip it around on the end that has the fold fold it

310

guys sorry i'm like so bad at explaining things and then

311

this feels like i'm playing origami i don't know what to

312

wear for tonight i think i might just wear what i'm

313

wearing right now it's just a white dress it's like cozy for inside

314

Deciding to host super last minute was definitely chaotic and stressful But thankfully, Amazon saved my weekend And if I felt this unprepared,

315

I can only imagine dorm week When you're moving into a brand new space

316

And suddenly realizing that there are a million things you forgot Thankfully, Amazon has you covered for all those last minute essentials So thanks, Amazon

317

Okay, don't mind my mismatched wine glasses Don't know why I have different sized wine glasses

318

but i'm gonna buy more soon yay this is it

319

so what i'm missing is flowers like i need to get flowers asap it's really bothering me

320

but imagine flowers in that vase would be

321

so cute i don't know where i'm gonna be putting this

322

but i was planning to leave them around my counter like set up like

323

that because i'm gonna leave the charcuterie board here salad bowl here and then like pasta

324

or like probably on the stove and then everyone can just like come up

325

and serve for themselves so yeah i think i'm gonna just go ahead

326

and plate this and then i'll start making the pasta sauce around like an hour before

327

because right now it's i have two hours before they come

328

and then i'll start mixing this up when the guests are here

329

so yeah i think i'm like pretty much ready i just need flowers.

330

I'm gonna plate the charcuterie board and pretend that I made it.

331

My friends are gonna be like whoa.

332

I'm using a lot of toilet paper right now.

333

I mean not toilet paper, paper towels today and without Amazon I would have had to like run to the grocery store

334

and get more and it would have been so such a hassle.

335

So Amazon is truly saving the day especially with the napkins

336

and the placemats on the table it literally made the whole thing

337

so much better so all right let's open this thing up my eyes are

338

so dry right now i think it's because onions

339

that i was chopping up i told my friends to come at 6 30 instead of 6

340

because i thought i'd need more time but i'm actually running super early so it's really nice to be on time

341

oh my god this looks

342

so good oh my gosh all right and then i'm gonna put grapes here It's gonna look so good. That just looks amazing.

343

Hey, this looks so good.

344

Look how good this looks.

345

Wow.

346

Amazon, you really pulled through with this.

347

With this little dipper.

348

Oh my gosh.

349

Literally saved my day. So cute.

350

Okay, guys.

351

my guests are coming in approximately 45 minutes or 40 minutes

352

so i'm gonna get started with cooking my pasta oh shoot i forgot to bring i forgot to buy flowers

353

so for pasta i'm gonna be making my signature spicy vodka

354

pasta i made this pasta probably like a million times

355

so i know how to like make it on the top of my head

356

so it's easy for when i'm hosting i'm not like stressing about the recipe

357

or anything so this is how i make it Okay, I put a lot of olive oil.

358

You can't go wrong with a lot.

359

Put the garlic in.

360

I'm not even putting the onions.

361

Okay, the sauce is pretty much ready.

362

I'm just going to put a lid on, serve when the pasta is ready and when the gadgets are here.

363

Boil some water.

364

Please put sauce in your water.

365

The sauce was so easy to make.

366

Generally, life hack.

367

Okay, now I'm going to put together my salad.

368

so i'm gonna get my bread croutons i've actually never tried

369

this brand before i usually use something from citrullo market this is already seasoned

370

but the important part is to make sure you crush up the croutons so that they're almost like red powder

371

that might have been a little too much

372

all right and then the salad's pretty much ready i set it aside

373

and then at the end i'm just gonna add my dressing in here

374

and then add more parmesan cheese to it i mean this is pretty much it

375

oh my god taste wise it should be fine this one just i didn't add too much oil

376

because it burns every time i do wait

377

which one should we eat first this looks

378

so good this one's got like a this is uh scallions

379

oh my god my friend is just helping me record are you including

380

that okay so this is like my caesar salad sauce oh my god looks

381

so good it's so good oh my god

382

and then i have to grate more cheese on top of

383

it with this bread she put together i did it all by myself

384

i made that bread though per your request oh my god

385

when are they coming

386

because i want to eat the bread first this is gonna be like girl dinner oh yeah

387

which is like that's fine we can get protein in tomorrow i was gonna make where's

388

that chicken parm but then i was like

389

and i'm a little too lazy no yeah yay salad's done i'm starving right now

390

Thank you.

391

good morning please ignore my side part right now i washed my hair this morning

392

and because i always part my hair in the middle it's good to like switch up your part

393

so that your part doesn't get wide over over the time

394

so i'm doing a little side part moment so ignore

395

that last night was so fun my friends

396

and i had such a great time and the food was really yummy

397

and all of the little decor items for hosting was perfect it came in handy

398

so amazon really saved my day yesterday

399

but now my house is a mess i usually clean after the guests leave

400

but last night i was way too tired to do any of

401

that my kitchen is a mess i want to do some cleaning

402

and get started with the day

403

so let's do it oh my gosh i need to show

404

you guys my friend is a baker she makes sour bread sourdough bread from scratch.

405

She makes it with yeast and stuff.

406

I don't know how she does it, but it tastes so good.

407

Look how delicious this looks.

408

I love bread.

409

I love sourdough bread, especially homemade.

410

So I'm excited to eat this throughout the week.

411

But anyways, let's get started with cleaning.

412

I'm going to put a little bit of a bag of water.

413

I'm

414

going to

415

go to the next video.

416

okay guys i feel like death right now i just spent

417

40 minutes deep cleaning my microwave i'm not gonna lie

418

that was like one of the very few few times

419

that i deep cleaned the insides of the microwave

420

and i'm genuinely traumatized i was cleaning the bottom and the sides

421

and then i looked up and there was so much grease

422

and like disgusting stuff on the ceiling and then i was cleaning

423

that but it was like really difficult because there was like things in the way.

424

Usually I hire a cleaner once a month to do like a deep cleaning to clean out my fridge,

425

my microwave, and all of like the nitty-gritty ugly things that I don't want to do while I deep clean.

426

But my cleaning lady, she's gone for like two months for vacation.

427

So I took the matters into my own hands and genuinely like why was that so hard?

428

Like I don't even need to do, I don't need to go to the gym anymore because my freaking arms are like sore from scrubbing.

429

But my microwave smells like shit.

430

It smells like food.

431

And this morning I was heating up my food, my breakfast.

432

And I almost like gagged because of all of like the different food smells from my microwave.

433

And I searched online.

434

Apparently if you put warm water and lemon into the bowl and microwave it, it works.

435

So let's do that right now.

436

I'm so tired.

437

that took like so much life off me.

438

I don't want to use the whole lemon so I'm just going to use

439

all right lemon water in the microwave and then I'm going to leave it on for a minute and 30 seconds.

440

Okay now that we are deep cleaning my microwave I want to clean my stove top.

441

I feel like deep cleaning my kitchen today.

442

yay it's spotless guys i love this feeling okay i'm on some sort of cleaning roll right now

443

so i'm gonna do a little bit one extra step every couple weeks

444

or whenever honestly i remember to do it i wipe down my cabinets

445

and i feel like this makes such a big difference in eliminating odors especially like

446

if you cook a lot there's like food smells that stick to your cabinets so it's important to wipe

447

them down what i do is i'm using this squirt mop hard floor cleaner wiping everything down

448

so if you guys don't have microfiber towels i highly recommend you guys to invest in it

449

because it makes her life so much easier when cleaning

450

okay guys the rest of the kitchen is cleaned I cleaned the rest of like the stuff over here.

451

It was like really cluttered.

452

So it looks a lot better now.

453

I have a life to life and I can't be cleaning forever.

454

I actually had other plans and I wasn't supposed to be deep cleaning my kitchen, but I ended up doing it anyway.

455

So I'm gonna have to pause here.

456

If you guys want to see me deep clean my entire apartment, I can definitely make a video on that.

457

It will be very exciting for me.

458

This is the end of my vlog.

459

If you guys watched till now, thanks for watching and I'll see you guys in the next video.

460

Bye.

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.
