104
It's not something that you're promised forever.

116
so but i did mention before i thought i saw slenderman in my kitchen standing over rice
117
but i think my eyeballs are just playing tricks on me i think it's just the lighting flickering
118
because when turn on my lights it flickers for a little bit
119
and then it turns on something about
120
that that's why i think i saw like a bald white
121
face thingy with a suit i don't know what the hell i saw
122
but it has to be my eyeballs playing tricks on me does your cat get scared by any noise
123
that you make i think yozar has gotten very used to me screaming and shouting
124
when i'm playing games he doesn't react he doesn't even bat
125
a single eyelid he just slips through everything would Would you play any horror games?
126
I love watching horror, movies, series, anything horror.
127
Watching is fine but playing it is a whole new f*ing story.
128
I don't know about that.
129
Sometimes maybe like during Halloween or some sh, maybe we can.
130
But other than that, I don't see me trying to play a horror game for no reason.
131
What kind of job do you want to work as once being a content creator is over?
132
Any office job, I'm happy in an office just typing my life away I guess.
133
As long as I got my little quiet corner Have my cup of tea
134
I'll be fine with that Do you really have friends?
135
Uh, I don't have friends that I talk to on a daily basis
136
But I do have friends that I talk to once in a
137
while And I talk a lot to my online friends That counts, right?
138

140
it's not a must for me i don't really care
141
if i do get married or if i don't get married
142
but i probably wouldn't want a wedding just
143
because it's very expensive what is your favorite song right now
144

149

150
book this might be a little bit embarrassing to say
151
but i have not completed a book before i've tried reading a book
152
but after the first few pages i just put it down why do you never look at the camera
153
when you talk my screen is in front of me
154
so my streaming things my chat everything is in front of me
155
so right now i'm looking at myself on the screen my camera is up there
156
so if i always have to look up it's a little bit awkward at times
157
so that's why you know what i'm gonna ask nothing
158
because you probably wouldn't even respond to it yes
159

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.
