Oh, it's like slang.
28
England.
29
So few from Africa.
30
Why are you white?

Could you give us some privacy for like one second?
33
Yeah, sure.
34
Thank you.
35

43
Why do you wear your hair like that?
44
Your hair looks so sexy pushed back.
45
Katie, will you please tell him his hair looks sexy, pushback?
46
Regina was dangling Aaron in front of me on purpose.
47
I knew how this would be settled in the animal world.
48
But this was girl world.
49
Your hair looks sexy pushed back.
50
And in Girl World, All the fighting had to be sneaky.
51
That was awesome.
52
Uh, lip gloss.
53
Hey, good job, Africa.
54
Thanks.
55
Katie's blushing.
56
Oh my god, you totally have a crush on that guy.
57
No, I don't.
58
That's why you wanted to join the math leads.
59
Mathletes?
60
You hate math.
61
Look how red she is.
62
You love him, and he totally complimented you.
63
That is so fascinating.
64
Fetch.
65
Gretchen.
66
Stop trying to make fetch happen.
67
It's not going to happen.
68
- Thank you.
69
Thank you.
70
Why should Caesar get to stomp around like a giant
71
while the rest of us try not to get smushed under his big feet?
72
What's so great about Caesar?
73
Brutus is just as cute as Caesar.
74
Okay, Brutus is just as smart as Caesar.
75
People totally like Brutus just as much as they like Caesar.
76
And when did it become okay for one person to be the boss of everybody, huh?
77
Because that's not what Rome is about!
78
We should totally just stab Caesar!
79
So Gretchen Wieners, head cracked.
80
If you even knew how mean she really is...
81
You know that I'm not allowed to wear hoop earrings, right?
82
Yeah, two years ago she told me that hoop earrings were her thing.
83
And then I wasn't allowed to wear them anymore.
84
And then for Hanukkah, my parents got me this pair of really expensive white gold hoops.
85
And I had to pretend like I didn't even like them.
86
It was so sad.
87
And you know she cheats on Aaron.
88
Yes, every Thursday he thinks she's doing SAT prep, but really, she's hooking up with Shane Ohman in the projection room above the auditorium.
89
I never told anybody that because...
90
I'm such a good friend.
91
Regina?
92
We have to talk to you.
93
Is butter a carb?
94
Yes.
95
- Gina?
96
You're wearing sweatpants.
97
It's Monday. So?
98
So that's against the rules, and you can't sit with us.
99
Whatever.
100
Those rules aren't real.
101
They were real that day I wore a vest.
102
Because that vest was disgusting.
103
You can't sit with us!
104
Thank you.
105
These sweatpants are all that fits me right now.
106
Fine.
107
You can walk home, bitches.
108
That's where you're going, fat ass!
109
Oh god.
110
You!
111
Dirty little liar.
112
I'm sorry, I can explain.
113
Explain how you forgot to invite us to your party?
114
Janice, I cannot stop this car.
115
I have a curfew.
116
You know I couldn't invite you.
117
I had to pretend to be plastic.
118
Buddy, you're not pretending anymore.
119
You're plastic.
120
Cold, shiny, hard plastic.
121
Curfew 1 :00 a .m.
122
It is now 1 :10.
123
Did you have an awesome time?
124
Did you drink awesome shooters and listen to awesome music and then just sit around and soak up each other's awesomeness?
125
You know what?
126
You're the one who made me like this so you could use me for your eighth grade revenge.
127
God, see, at least me and Regina George know we're mean.
128
You try to act like you're so innocent.
129
Like, oh, I used to live in Africa with all the little birdies and the little monkeys.
130
You know what?
131
It's not my fault you're, like, in love with me or something.
132
What?
133
Oh, no, she did not.
134
See?
135
That is the Thank you thing with you, Plastics.
136
You think that everybody is in love with you when actually everybody hates you.
137
Like, Aaron Samuels, for example, he broke up with Regina and guess what?
138
He still doesn't want you.
139
So why are you still messing with Regina, Katie?
140
I'll tell you why.
141
'Cause you are a mean girl.
142
You're a bitch!
143
Here, you can have this.
144
I want a prize.
145
And I want my pink shirt back!
146
I want my pink shirt back!
147
Do you have anything else you want to say?
148
Oh, no, I can't answer any more questions since I had a parent a lawyer present.
149
Ms. Smith?
150
Thank you.
151
Thank you.
152
Whoever wrote it probably didn't think anyone would ever see it.
153
I hope that nobody else ever does see it.
154
Mom, can you pick me up?
155
I'm scared.
156
Janice Ian Dyke.
157
That's original.
158
You need a function!
159
Hey!
160
That's only okay when I say it.
161
Did you write this?
162
No, I swear!
163
Then you told somebody!
164
She told!
165
You little bitch!
166
- You bitch!
167

168

177
Oh, crap!
178
My hair!
179
Oh, Junior Girls report to the gymnasium immediately!
180
Oh my god, it's your dream come true, diving into a big pile of girls.
181
Okay, yeah, um, I've got an apology.
182
Thank you.
183
So, I have this friend who is a new student this year, and I convinced her that it would be fun to mess up Regina George's life.
184
So I had her pretend to be friends with Regina, and then she would come to my house after, and we would just laugh about all the dumb stuff Regina said.
185
And we gave her these candy bar things that would make her gain weight, and we turned her best friends against her.
186
And then, oh yeah, Katie.
187
You know my friend Katie, she made out with me for Jean's boyfriend and then convinced him to break up with her.
188
Oh God, and we gave you foot cream instead of face washing.
189
God!
190
I am sorry.
191
Regina.
192
Really, I don't know why I did it.
193
I guess it's...
194
Probably because I've got a big lesbian crush on you!
195
Suck on that!
196
Ayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyayyay Regina, wait.
197
I didn't mean for that to happen.
198
To find out that everyone hates me, I don't care.
199
Regina, please!
200
Regina, stop!
201
Do you know what everyone says about you?
202
They say that you're a homeschooled jungle freak who's a less hot version of me.
203
Yeah, so don't try to act so innocent.
204
You can take that fake apology and shove it right up your hairy...
205
And that's how Regina George died.
206
No, I'm totally kidding.
207
But she did get hurt.
208
Some girls say they saw her head go all the way around, but that's just a rumor.
209
Some people swear they saw me push her in front of the bus.
210
That was an even worse rumor.

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.
