Creating lesson...
1
oh good
2
morning guys it's currently six o'clock and
3
i made me some hot tea of course my new mug
4
that i got and i'm gonna get ready i like you think i might do my hair first
5
i'm gonna bring you guys along
6
and what i do like every single morning for school
7
because it's usually the same usually it can change
8
but life's been kind of chill kind of boring
9
but you know i don't really know the post
10
but yeah here it is i'm gonna do my makeup i usually switch it up like
11
if i'm doing hair rollers i'll do those first and my makeup
12
because i have to sit all morning i don't really know where i'm gonna do my hair
13
but i'm gonna do it last and i'm gonna go ahead and do my makeup and stuff and face so
14
can you see a difference low key
15
you guys like the cute ignore my eyes you guys like
16
the cute little decorations i'm working on i have a few more i'm going to put back there
17
but that part takes the longest now i can do the easy stuff
18
Guys, my bronzer broke.
19
this is from dollar tree and it works perfectly so my makeup is done now for hair
20
attempt to set that up right there
21
it's time for hair
22
checking those down because they're not aesthetic
23
i can't decide if i want to curl it or if i want to do my thermal brush straighten it
24
i think i'm gonna use this oh it needs cleaned
25
i've made a tutorial for how i use this in the past video
26
so i'm not gonna go into that in this one just
27
because i kind of want a time limit since i have to be at school at a certain time
28
but this is the wavy talk thermal brush and i'm gonna put it on 360 oh this needs cleaned
29
ew don't forget your heat protectant i just used jesun a it's not too often
30
that i'll wear my hair down for school just because it takes
31
so long to do it's kind of annoying
32
but since it is the last days of school i don't
33
really expect to be putting much heat on my hair in the summer
34
so i was like let me just go ahead and do it
35
while i can you know wait this is lucky cute though i can just my hair just go with this
36
I'm gonna try something
37
because the top of my hair just looks a little flat i like how the bottom looks
38
but i'll get ready i'm gonna try to put this part
39
in like a roller maybe make it a little bit less like flat
40
i don't know how much my hair is falling out of it
41
um it's a very large roller anyways here's the bottom
42
cool okay i'm gonna do a little outfit change with the hair looking crazy
43
leggings socks shirt i did something different with the necklaces usually i won't do two like big ones like this
44
but i did it because why not
45
and then i'm gonna put my shoes on after i make my lunch
46
and everything so yeah i'll put my shoes on later
47
and um i gotta go make my lunch and breakfast
48
so oh but i almost forgot you don't want to stink at school guys
49
hey guys i'm sorry for the setup it's not that bad
50
but it's like setting up on three stuff animals
51
and yeah basically i just grabbed this off my mirror
52
so i've had this bible verse on my mirror
53
and i read it
54
and i thought it would be really good to share with you guys it's a really quick one
55
but i'm just gonna read you guys it and explain
56
so it's romans 8 18 i consider
57
that our present sufferings are not worth comparing with the glory
58
that will be revealed in us so basically it's just saying
59
that no matter what you're going through right now
60
or any time period in your life it says it's not anywhere near comparable to what joy you will experience
61
and the glory that will be revealed within us
62
so i mean you can piece it together
63
but i put on my mirror because it's a good reminder
64
that no matter what you're going through
65
or how bad anything is no pain will compare to the joy
66
that you will feel one day with Jesus and in heaven.
67
So it's just a good reminder that he's with us even through our hardest times
68
and that there's always a way through it.
69
God always has a way through it.
70
Everything you've went through, God has pulled you through you're watching this right now there's always a way
71
so i think it's a really good reminder
72
so i keep it on my mirror
73
and i want to share it with you guys okay bye bye i'll get back to the video
74
i usually will eat the exact same breakfast which is an apple
75
and peanut butter and honey or I'll eat like a banana.
76
Okay, cut this.
77
Cut it down the middle and then cut the middle out of it, the core of the apple.
78
Not very good at that.
79
Drizzle honey on the top.
80
i wasn't even videoing and i took the roller out
81
but anyway i took it out and this is like low-key going the wrong way
82
and i'm just munching while i get ready oh my hair
83
I usually end up eating my food too fast And my stomach hurts
84
So I'm trying to slow down but I have to leave soon so
85
I don't know if I've shown you guys my new curtains
86
Because I always complain about my other ones so I got new ones
87
Thank you I have to get all of my bags on
88
I almost went out of the house With my slippers on so Time to leave Oh,
89
that smells so bad.
90
I think all these stings on me.
91
And I'm about to enter the sting zone.
92
I'm still in first period, but first period's about to end.
93
And we haven't done anything low-key because they've been working on stuff for Teacher Appreciation Week.
94
So we've low-key just been sitting here.
95

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
