Hey guys, it's Syd and welcome back.

Hi guys!

I'm gonna get this one.

We love you Sydney.

Heart earring.

Today I just know it's gonna be a really good day because I'm gonna start out by going to Starbucks.

They came out with their new fall drinks yesterday.

I just have to go

and then I have a few things I need to get done on my to -do list

that I'm gonna take you guys along with me.

is just honestly make my mood 10 times better.

I'm one of those people that the weather really affects my mood.

Look how nice it looks out today. So sunny.

My brother has some friends coming over later today so he set up a couple games for them.

This is one of my first times using the glow drops by Drunk Elephant and I actually love them.

I don't really know exactly what the day holds.

but it's more fun that way.

Okay, my makeup is done.

It's Definitely very glowy today, but now I'm gonna pick out my fit for today.

I don't know what to wear.

I think some color could be fun.

Otherwise, I could wear the Skims bodysuit, but I kind of want to wear a little bit more color today.

I tend to gravitate toward more neutral colors when I dress.

I've been trying to like be more fun, okay?

I've been trying to have more color in my wardrobe.

So yeah, I'm gonna wear this for today.

And then I'm wearing these pants.

These I got from Aritzia when I was in New York, if you watched that vlog.

For jewelry, a few rings today.

I'm gonna throw on this one I wear every day

and then this heart one that I just got and this other heart one from Brandy.

Okay guys should I wear these heart earrings or my gold hoops?

I just feel like I always wear hoops and I want to switch it up.

But I honestly can't.

They are a staple for a reason.

Getting ready just makes me feel better.

I honestly don't even really need to get ready.

I just enjoy getting ready for my day.

It really kind of like gives me a bit of a routine and just keeps me...

motivated oh before i go you guys i just got these

new shoes i love them i was on the wait list for so long so these are the sambas by adidas

i'm at starbucks you guys know i usually get the same thing the strawberry refresher

but yesterday i came here because the fall drinks came out

and i had the pumpkin chai and it was so so good i feel for a while.

I let it run its course.

Then once I'm sick of it, I replace it with something else.

I also have been trying to see this one girl here.

I think her name is Drew.

She watches my videos.

So hi if you're watching this.

And she's so sweet.

She's always working at the drive -thru.

I just like her so much and I get so much PR.

So if she's working, which I hope she is, I wanted to just give her some of these things.

There's some foundations, some skincare, and the super, super cute Sally because I feel like that will be easier.

Like, is this allowed?

Or like, well, I hope she doesn't get in trouble.

I came here yesterday.

She wasn't here.

So I'm just like hoping, hoping she's here.

How can I get started for you?

Hi, can I have the Grande Ice Pumpkin Chai, please?

Okay, 637.

Thank you.

Okay, I can't tell if this is her.

Like, I couldn't tell if it was her voice.

Hi.

How are you?

Good, how are you?

Good.

Do you want PR?

Yeah.

Are you serious?

Yeah, of course.

That's why I'm senior.

I tell her about you every freaking day.

Really?

Because I didn't remember.

I just love it.

You're literally so nice.

This is too much.

No, no, I get so much stuff.

Yes, yes, of course.

Do you want to be in my vlog?

Oh my god.

Yeah, I do.

I was telling them about you, how nice you are.

Hi guys. So cute.

That like made my week.

That was so fun.

They wrote this on there for me.

We love you, Sydney.

How cute is that she's just such a ray of sunshine she like makes my day

so much better every time i'm there she's so positive

so sweet drew you're a very sweet girl

but this is the pumpkin chai and it's

so good you guys need to try this

if you haven't okay i decided to stop at target really

quick since i got my nails taken off i want to

100

at least paint them i haven't painted my nails in

101

so long like i can't remember the last time i got nail polish and painted them so i'm gonna see if

102

I think I'm gonna get this one.

103

I've been seeing this like on my social media.

104

It's by OPI, it's in the shade Maud About You.

105

And I feel like it's just like the perfect ballet pink color.

106

There was only one left, so that means it was a sign the best thing target's ever done was get an ulta put in

107

i feel like i spend so much money here So I'm home now.

108

So my brother decided to have some of his friends over and they're having this basketball tournament.

109

Hi.

110

Bye.

111

My mom's so cute.

112

She set this up for them.

113

A little snack area, which is where I will be.

114

Thank you.

115

You guys joining me for the food?

116

Yeah.

117

I'm in charge of the music.

118

All right, I think it's time to paint my nails.

119

When I was at Target, by the way, I also grabbed this.

120

This is a Sally Hansen nail fortifier.

121

This is life -changing if you have brittle nails, especially like whenever I get my acrylics taken off, my nails are really weak.

122

I just put a couple coats of this on and my nails are just less likely to break this way, but I'm so excited to paint my own nails.

123

I cannot remember the last time that I did my own fingernail painting.

124

This color is just the perfect ballerina pink.

125

So, oh God, I'm actually like, I'm probably gonna be really bad.

126

I kinda like the smell of nail polish.

127

Do you guys also relate or no?

128

I think it smells so good.

129

It's kinda like when people like the smell of gasoline,

130

or chlorine in a pool. So, oh.

131

Thank you.

132

So I did have to have my mom.

133

help me i was just struggling severely

134

135

so she was really sweet

136

and she helped me make them look less horrible can you tell

137

which hand i did and she did comment down below which hand did i do and which hand did she do Mm.

138

what's next on my list oh i think i'm gonna throw in some laundry actually the pile is overflowing

139

so i am the worst with gifts.

140

You know, I'm gonna rephrase that.

141

I'm actually pretty good.

142

I get them in advance.

143

I try to be pretty thoughtful, but this time, I messed up.

144

I got gifts for two of my best friends.

145

They were my roommates last year and we graduated in May and I was going to give these to them

146

And then they just didn't come in time.

147

They actually got like held up at the post office and stuff.

148

So it wasn't really my fault I just want to show you guys these

149

150

and i'm gonna go mail them really quick But before I package them up, I just need to show you guys So there's three of us

151

and I got three different heart knucklaces

152

So you can see the heart is filled in a different spot for each of them.

153

Let me go do this before Anything else.

154

Um, i'm about to mail something for maya and ash.

155

Do you have their address?

156

157

The way it's literally the grad gift I got them in May.

158

Thank you.

159

Honestly, I respect that.

160

Okay, I got their address from one of their moms, so now I can actually mail these.

161

Okay, I was driving up and I saw this box and I'm pretty sure it's PR.

162

It's Two -Face.

163

That's so exciting.

164

PR time I'm with Rosie PR is honestly like the most amazing thing I remember

165

when I was like 14

166

and I was just starting YouTube how much I wanted a

167

box of PR like I just thought it was the coolest thing still to this day

168

171

10 out of 10.

172

173

Let me just do a little PR haul quick.

174

Okay, so I have two other packages.

175

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.
