It was terrible.

It only gets worse.
10
I know. So good. So it's muggy outside.
11
Jung, you look super hot.
12
No, I don't.
13
No, I'm gross.
14
The oily skin, it's gross, right?
15
It doesn't look oily to me.
16
Yeah, it's more of a sweat situation, and it's out of control.
17
Yeah, I sweat, like, a lot.
18
Mostly in the pits. And the groin.
19
I just meant you must be super hot with all those clothes on.
20
Oh, sorry, I should have brought you a latte.
21
No, you shouldn't have.
22
Because Chung can't have dairy.
23
It upsets my stomach.
24
Yeah!
25
Full on heavy D.
26
Diarrhea.
27
So it must have been hard to find work.
28
Yeah, it's because he's lazy and mostly mooches.
29
Right, buddy?
30
Yeah, I mean, why pay for stuff when other people can, right?
31
Yeah, I mean, you have a good job handy now.
32
Yeah, but he's on thin ice because of his weird fetish.
33
Okay, you know what?
34
I'm done, all right?
35
You said be gross, I said it's impossible, yet I did it.
36
Now you're crossing the line.
37
Hey, cover your shoulders!
38
Sorry, what's going on?
39
Look, I can't help it if she's into me.
40
Fine.
41
Chung's the hot one, so go for it.
42
What?
43
I'm clean, I cooked, I love that story about your great -grandmother who was suffering.
44
She was a suffragette.
45
Whatever.
46
The point is, you're gonna fall for the guy with the abs and let the guy with personality get away.
47
Law of the jungle.
48
You think I drop a guy I like because a slightly more handsome guy is in the room?
49
Slightly?
50
You heard her.
51
No, I've been on 11 dates this month.
52
It's exhausting and it's boring.
53
I just wanted a nice cool guy and I thought I had one.
54
Who are you talking about?
55
Why are guys such jerks?
56
Oh my god.
57
She didn't like you.
58
She liked me.
59
Yeah.
60
Now she hates you.

Bittersweet victory.

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.
