Prática de Shadowing: Alone but Not Lonely // episode 12 - Aprenda a falar inglês com vídeo

what happened to my alone but not lonely videos maybe you guys thought

that because i no longer live alone that those videos were over

but that is not the case these are like such a fun core video on my channel

that i feel like you guys love just as much as

i do really like the focus of it all is just feeling empowered to like do things alone.

I love that you guys love these videos because they are honestly like pretty important to me.

I think it's so important to be able to enjoy your own company regardless of your situation.

My plan is to try new spots that I haven't tried.

Well that's very redundant.

Try new spots that I haven't tried.

I am going to take some of your guys's suggestions actually in the comments of my videos

and do some things that you guys have been recommending for me to do.

One of the things I do need to do is get a new eyebrow pencil

because my roommate Olivia let me borrow hers

because mine ran out some of the other things I think

are going to be going to the New York library I

want to go to a new coffee shop it is also

Halloween today happy Halloween everybody I actually forgot until I woke up this morning

but I'm excited to spend the day with you guys

and I hope it's reciprocated I hope you guys are as well Another day, another coffee shop.

I really love doing this with you guys, trying new spots together.

It feels like we're together.

And I decided to take a little bit of a commute to this one uptown

because I really wanted to try it out.

I'm on my way to the coffee shop.

I'm actually almost there, but I saw this Sephora.

You guys know I ran out of my eyebrow pencils, so I figured I would go in and grab one.

And I was in there for a good 20 minutes just swatching every single shade ever to exist.

It was kind of unnecessary.

Then I made it to the coffee shop called Bunny and Bro.

Did you even go to Sephora if you don't look like this after?

Probably not.

I am now at a new coffee shop.

This place is called Bunny and Bro Coffee.

You know, this looks like a dessert coffee.

You can see, I think there's marshmallow on top.

I love their marketing.

It's so cute.

They call this the golden hour latte.

And then I also got a blueberry muffin because I'm hungry.

I like it in here.

I really just love their logo.

I'm a sucker for a good logo.

Okay, this is really good.

Like the marshmallow cream that they have on top.

I've never had in a latte before.

It's definitely very sweet, but it's really good.

I'm gonna rate that an eight and a half out of ten.

Muffin time.

Oh, it kind of reminds me of the muffins

that I used to bake when i was young i like this another eight

and a half out of ten guys i just got home

to a delivery i've been waiting for this package i just

checked it's from quince you know what this means all time

when it comes to like an online order i cannot not open it the second i get it i got

so many new clothes from quince i've talked about quince before on here

so when they asked to work with me i kind of freaked out

so i'm gonna show you guys a little haul of the clothing that i I picked out from Quince.

And thank you, of course, to Quince for working with me.

We'll start with the first item, which is ironically what I'm wearing right now.

It's this beautiful, chunky, white cable knit sweater.

Everyone needs a perfect staple white sweater.

And this one is just so thick.

You can tell that it's such great quality and it actually is keeping me very warm.

Next, I got this cashmere beige sweater.

It's so beautiful.

I really wanted to pick out a lot of sweaters because in the fall, that's 90% of what I wear.

Everything looks just as good as it it does online, but it feels like just such high quality.

I got the same sweater, but in this dark gray color.

I wanted it in two different colors, because you guys know I love buying the same thing in like five different color ways for no reason.

I found out that the reason that they're able to keep their prices lower

while still having such good quality is

because they cut out the middleman in the supply chain by using a factory to direct model.

So it doesn't suffer the quality of the pieces

but still keeps it affordable the next top i got it's

this silk button-down blouse i really thought this would be a

great staple piece to have very chic i'm planning to layer this with either a white

or black tank i think this would be really pretty for

like a date night i also got this black sweater this is a cashmere button-down black sweater

and it is pretty heavy Again, for me, that just like indicates really good quality because it's so thick.

With something like this, I plan to layer it with something lace underneath would be really pretty to peek out at the top.

Quince is very sustainable though, I wanted to mention.

Whenever they can, they use organic materials and they're very conscious of their packaging.

Oh, and they also do free shipping on your orders.

And they do have a 365 day return window as well.

I have this brown ribbed tank.

Wearing chunky earrings with something like this is really nice.

And it's definitely something I save a lot on like my Pinterest boards.

Just another great simple staple piece.

Lastly, which I'm most excited about, are these black flats.

These are a staple shoe that I need because I don't always want to wear heels, especially in the wintertime.

I was like, you know what?

I need a good just basic pair of flats.

Let's do a comfortability test.

These fit so perfect.

Walk test.

It's great.

Ultimately, I really just like love Quince's mission statement.

They really focus on high quality pieces that are still accessible and affordable, which I definitely really appreciate.

100

So if you want to check out any of these pieces, I'll put a link in the description box for everything.

101

So you can just easily see all of the pieces that I showed.

102

Thank you guys again for working with me.

103

And I absolutely know you guys will love them too if you try them out.

104

So if you do, please let me know.

105

Anyways, that was my little haul.

106

I got a comment on a video a while ago suggesting that I go to the New York Public Library, which is actually insane that I haven't been yet.

107

That's what I'm gonna go do.

108

I've been waiting to do it with you guys because I didn't want to go alone.

109

I mean, I am technically alone, but I'm with you guys.

110

We're gonna head over there.

111

I think I'm gonna have to take the train so I should probably leave. so

112

so i just left the library it was

113

so beautiful in there i wish i could have like spoken more

114

but it was way too quiet

115

and i don't think i was allowed since i wasn't able to actually like check out any books.

116

I decided that on the way home I'm gonna stop at a bookstore.

117

There's this one that I- oh my gosh!

118

Wait guys, I just stumbled upon the Winter Festival at Bryant Park.

119

Um, hold that thought.

120

I think I'm gonna stop in here.

121

I didn't realize it was right here.

122

They do this every winter in New York and they have all these really cute little shops with like Christmas gifts, like holiday drinks, snacks, food, vendors.

123

So I'm gonna stop here first.

124

This is very spontaneous of me.

125

I've been trying to be more spontaneous

126

so it's kind of perfect guys I'm

127

so happy right now they have ice skating I totally forgot

128

that they had this I'm so happy that I just like stumbled upon this

129

so randomly it's

130

so fun here I need to come back with my friends

131

I actually want to do this for a vlog soon like Christmas in New York.

132

I want to do all of the holiday activities including this so stay tuned.

133

Let me know if you guys want to see that

134

but it's so fun here and it's just like so positive

135

and uplifting to see and when I'm alone I love to people watch.

136

It's like one of my favorite past times since you're kind of just like sitting in your own thoughts.

137

It's really like enjoyable and this is a good place to do that.

138

It is very unlike me to be such an early Christmas gift shopper

139

but when I was here I saw some things that I just couldn't pass up so I got my mom, mom stop watching this please, right now.

140

I got her a couple puzzles, her favorite thing ever.

141

I also got another gift for someone else that I can't say.

142

It is just such a great spot for gifts.

143

Anyways now I'm gonna head over to the library or bookstore because I do actually want to look at some books

144

But if you visit New York soon before Christmas is over, you should definitely stop by the Bryant Park Market.

145

They have everything.

146

So I just got back from the bookstore.

147

I love it in there.

148

I could just spend hours sitting in there.

149

The staff are just like so kind.

150

I just want to show you guys quickly what I got.

151

I picked up this book and this was actually on like the sale rack out front.

152

And the reason I got this is because there's no summary or like synopsis of what the book is about.

153

The title isn't even like on the cover.

154

They marketed it as like a mystery bookshelf.

155

So I truly have no idea like what this is about.

156

I briefly looked through.

157

I think it's fiction.

158

I'm really excited.

159

It is called, when you open it up, The Tangled Chord.

160

So I'm excited.

161

I've never done something like this where I truly have no idea what I'm about to read.

162

It's called The World's Oldest Mystery Bookstore, which is actually very fitting because this is a mystery book.

163

Right around this time, I tend to get my afternoon slump, meaning I just get really tired.

164

So sometimes I just do nothing and like sit on my phone.

165

So I kind of would rather go to the gym.

166

I mean, I definitely don't want to go, but I think I'll feel better.

167

I'm going to run.

168

Not run.

169

I mean, I'm going to run to the gym, as in walk, and then walk on the treadmill at the gym.

170

Okay, so I just threw on some self-tanner, which I know is kind of strange and probably not a good idea before I go work out.

171

But I don't really have a ton of time because I'm going to go out tonight to celebrate Halloween, and I just don't want to be pale.

172

Anyways, I'm changed.

173

Put on a little workout outfit, and I'm going to go to the gym.

174

okay guys i'm back home now i just always feel

175

so good and like calm after i work out of course i'm using actually the only mug

176

that i have and i'm not going to talk about it i'm done talking about this mug

177

but you already know how i feel about it anyways before

178

i get ready i decided to bring back my little advice

179

segments well i guess i never really got rid of them i didn't do them for while for some reason.

180

If you guys don't know, you can DM me on Instagram.

181

I keep it completely anonymous and I just answer like any advice that you need help with.

182

It could be about relationships, life, school, work, honestly anything.

183

Nothing makes me really qualified for this, but I do think sometimes it's nice to hear someone's opinion from an outside perspective on things.

184

At least that's what I do when I'm in a predicament.

185

I'm 24, going to turn 25, and as I've gotten older, I've lost friendships.

186

As of recently, I got so fed up with someone who I thought was my friend.

187

I've come to realize

188

that it was a very one-way friendship where I was always putting in the effort to ask to hang out.

189

I totally understand and I feel you and I've been there and I feel like everyone's been there.

190

Okay, I'm gonna keep going.

191

Once I mentioned to this person how I felt and the person got so defensive, then I thought things were going well until I've been asking this person to hang out recently.

192

She would respond with, sorry I can't and not even say I mentioned another day she's available.

193

This happened three times which made me just give up because she wasn't even trying to see me.

194

I started my first big girl job in August and the place I work has much older people.

195

It is extremely hard to make friends.

196

I hope someday to be at a job with people around my age to make new friends would appreciate some advice.

197

I can say I have experienced this

198

and I think anyone who has been in their early 20s

199

has also experienced this i'm not sure how long you were friends with this person

200

but especially if you were friends like when you were younger it is common

201

and also normal to outgrow certain friendships

202

and it's not necessarily like a bad thing not on either

203

of your sides sometimes we just like outgrow people as we get older

204

and we learn more about ourselves who we are like the types of relationships

205

that we want so i think just like letting go of

206

that friendship without any guilt you know it's okay to outgrow friendships with people just

207

because you were friends with someone for years doesn't mean you

208

still need to be best friends with them sometimes they're just

209

not meant to be your friend at this point in life

210

maybe they were meant to be your friend at a certain stage

211

when you were growing up but it's okay to like let them go especially

212

if you tried which i think is very respectable

213

that you really tried to put an effort

214

and clearly it wasn't being reciprocated and that's

215

when you know it's time to let it go you don't

216

deserve a one-way friendship just like relationships it deserves to be

217

50 50 exchange it's never going to be 50 50 that's

218

why i did this i think that's kind of impossible like

219

there's no way a relationship is ever going to be exactly 50 50

220

but if in general the effort is there on both sides that's the kind of relationships

221

and friendships that you want in your life

222

so i guess my first thought is i'm just proud of you for letting it go

223

and for also like communicating it you kind of have to put yourself out there more

224

and really like search for those people

225

that you just feel like are your people i think

226

that there's ways to do this outside of work i think

227

if you have a friend meeting their friends

228

if that's possible like through mutual friends

229

if you like someone i would suspect there's a good chance you'll probably like their friends too

230

or even joining a club i know there's some clubs on facebook

231

or like in your community finding something that you love

232

and meeting people there because

233

if you already have this shared similar hobby it's already like putting you off to a good start

234

and i think just like you can meet people really anywhere

235

if you put yourself out there

236

and i think post-grad that's the hard thing you kind of are forced to put yourself out there more

237

because these friendships aren't just like being handed to you like they were in school not

238

that they are in school but i just feel like it is a lot easier

239

when you're in college or high school

240

because everyone is just your age it's right next to you i think just like also being patient

241

and like realizing you don't need to have a ton of friends

242

or really any friends like it's okay to be alone your

243

young 20s i find are a pivotal time to kind of

244

like re-establish your circle i feel like you kind of like filter in

245

and out people not even like intentionally or like in a mean way

246

but you find the people that fit your life as like you're growing

247

and learning about yourself so are they but definitely

248

if you even just try to put yourself out there the worst case scenario is

249

that you did something that you were probably sort of scared to do

250

and friendships also come with time

251

when i first moved to new york a couple years ago i had zero friends i'm not even exaggerating, I had zero friends.

252

I moved here very blindly.

253

The first couple months were very discouraging.

254

Actually, the first six months to a year, I really struggled at first and I feel like there's so much pressure to like find your friends and find them quick.

255

But you also don't want to settle into friendships that you don't really value.

256

For me, I'd rather have good quality friends than a ton of distant friendships.

257

I would say kind of like relationships, like don't settle and really focus on the people that make you feel happy.

258

And I promise if you keep putting yourself out there and you don't give up, you will find your people.

259

And friendships take time, you know?

260

It's not like you just hang out with someone once and you guys are besties.

261

So you kind of have to like foster those.

262

But yeah, that's my experience.

263

I'm rooting for you.

264

I promise.

265

I've been there.

266

And I just like want to give you a hug through the screen that you can do it because I've been there.

267

And I know how hard it is.

268

Anyways, cheers.

269

Probably should have done that at the beginning.

270

I am going to shower because I feel gross after my workout.

271

And then later that night, I decided to go out for halloween.

272

Yes, I did dress as a cat the most basic thing ever I just didn't want to put in the effort.

273

You know, it was a lazy year for me I'll go harder next year, but thank you guys for watching.

274

I love you

275

so much Let me know what kind of videos you want

276

to see as always I read all of your comments I'll see you in my next vlog.

277

Bye guys

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
