1
Okay, I feel like we've all had some, like, crazy friend, right?
2
Like, there's some crazy bullcrap.
3
Um, yeah, mine was, like, my best friend for, like, most of my life, and I think it was, like, only six months ago when we stopped being friends,
4
and it, like, it all kind of clicked, right?
5
Like, I already thought that some of the stuff she did was really freaking crazy, but everyone was telling me, yeah, no, I thought she was, like, really weird.
6
and i was like why wouldn't you tell me this before okay so basically for some context we were um
7
we were best friends since like kindergarten right
8
and then like it was fine we had our like little fights
9
but i feel like it was fights where like every kid has right
10
and then middle school came around
11
and i remember i was scared like we were super close
12
we could bring be like hey like you did this
13
that upset me well she could do that not me because whenever i did it
14
it was like weird it was like oh my gosh like i ended up apologizing you know
15
and it would be something so stupid like her calling me fat in front of people
16
and she'd be like well and i'd have to end up apologizing what the fuck
17
so then i i was scared to bring up stuff to her
18
because she was more outgoing to everyone and people didn't really like me
19
so people would automatically take her side if we stopped being friends
20
and that was like the whole class everyone would take her side no matter what it was
21
because she'd be able to like just transform it in like a weird way right
22
so I was always scared I was never really bringing up
23
stuff um obviously there was times where I did wrong I'm not stupid enough to not admit
24
that like but it more happened when I like it started kind of escalating
25
when i switched schools right actually no i remember one time
26
in grade six she pretended like she faked killing herself just to get my attention
27
yeah that like that was low -key weird looking back
28
and then she got upset when i like reached out to her mom
29
because she wasn't answering me and she was like i was like oh my gosh is she okay and she was like, yeah, no, she's literally eating right beside me, um, but when I switched schools,
30
oh, excuse me, when I switched schools, oh, my gosh, oh, my gosh,
31
mind you, I think I was being a pretty good friend, like, whenever her birthday would come around, and I wouldn't be able to, like, buy her stuff, because I was low -key a broke teenager, I would make her something,
32
right like I remember one time I made her like a
33
five page long letter saying like oh my like this is why I value you as a friend you know
34
and I would never get anything for my birthday back I wasn't complaining about
35
that just to be clear I'm not complaining but
36
that kind of matters later on in the story
37
but um she would look at really crazy
38
when I would get a boyfriend
39
that was something I noticed it was like she would get like really like on me
40
when I would get a boyfriend and it was kind of weird
41
when I got my first boyfriend it wasn't like seriously I lost like a month um
42
but she was like finding stuff to get upset about no matter what
43
and I remember this one time obviously I was going to talk to her about this
44
because like I had gotten my first boyfriend, right, so I was excited, and I was telling her this stuff, I was like, oh my gosh, like, blah, blah, this happened, and it was, like, when it first started, so I was, like, happy,
45
you know, and then one time she was, like, hey, like, um, could you stop talking about boys, like, I'm kind of getting tired, and I was, like, you know what,
46
understandable, I, I'll stop, but this was when she was really into JJK then, and I wasn't into it, so, and she, it was all she would talk about,
47
so I was kind of tired of it, too, so when I brought it up, I was, like, oh, since we're, like, kind of like saying stuff like that were like kind of setting boundaries
48
and stuff like it'd be awesome
49
if you could like just tone down the jjk stuff a little bit like i'm not really into it
50
so like i don't want to be hearing about it all the time
51
and what's kind of hypocritical is she didn't want me talking about boys
52
but all she'll talk about is how fine these jjk men were i didn't say that
53
but like i thought it was kind of like okay um yeah she tweaked out as soon as i said that
54
she got so fucking mad at me
55
so mad she was like are you serious like what do
56
you mean blah blah like this is what we do like
57
if you just gave it a shot you would like it and i was like i
58
did try to watch it it just i wasn't really into
59
it like i'm you can't get mad at me for
60
that um she got really mad
61
and then she stopped responding at some point um we weren't
62
fighting i was like being kind of confused right um she stopped responding and i was like hey like
63
are we okay you know
64
and the next day i would text back mind you this
65
was on instagram okay this was on instagram um instagram chats i text back the next day
66
and be like hey like are we good like i don't
67
want any like bad blood to be between us right she didn't respond she didn't even open it
68
and i was like okay and then i would send her reels thinking
69
that like i don't know i was trying to like you know
70
and um mind you at this time i was getting my
71
phone taken away like every other day right my parents were always taking my phone away
72
so i didn't really have like this
73
so i didn't have messages all the time uh -huh yeah she knew this
74
and her our main point of communication was snapchat she's just really like talking there for some reason
75
so i would try to snap her stuff and talk to her there
76
and this was the week of her birthday so her birthday rolled around
77
and then I sent her this paragraph on snapchat saying happy birthday
78
and I posted her on instagram she opened the message on snapchat never replied
79
and I was like oh okay like that's kind of weird
80
but I guess she's still mad at me
81
and then a week went by and it was still no context
82
and I was like it got like I remember I was
83
like feeling really bad on it like I was in a really bad mental state right
84
and then I texted her on messages because I just got my phone back And I was like, hey, like, please, I need you.
85
Can you please respond?
86
Please talk to me.
87
And then she finally responded.
88
And she was like, oh, now you're trying to talk to me only when you need me.
89
What?
90
And I was like, what?
91
What are you talking about?
92
And she was like, I deleted all my other social media apps.
93
You should have texted me here.
94
You never told me this.
95
What?
96
What?
97
What?
98
what so i was like what are you i didn't i didn't know
99
that she was like yeah and you didn't even like tell me happy birthday
100
when my birthday came around and i was like i sent you a paragraph
101
and you like didn't you opened it
102
and she was like oh yeah my sister read it to me
103
and it was the worst thing i've ever seen like a person
104
that i barely knew um i sent me a better like happy birthday paragraph, and I was like, but you just said that I didn't say,
105
I was confused, I thought it was a pretty good one, honestly, um, I was, like,
106
so shocked, right, um, and then, I freaking, like, we all ended up talking it out,
107
I apologized, obviously, obviously, whoever would have thought, you know, whoever would have thought that, um, but then, like, later on,
108
she was always trying gonna use it against me.
109
She was like, oh, you never even send me happy birthday that day.
110
Yes, I did.
111
Yes, I did.
112
Yes, I did.
113
But I always kind of just like let it slide because I was like, okay, like there's nothing to do about it.
114
And then I remember one time I was with my boyfriend in my house and my ex -boyfriend.
115
Let's keep that straight.
116
Keep that now, um, I was hanging out with my ex -boyfriend, and then, um, she called me, and then I picked up, and she was like, oh, what are you doing, and I was like,
117
oh, I'm watching a movie with him right now, like, we're just hanging out, and she was like, okay, like, I was gonna come over, and I was like, yeah, no, I'm kind of with him, so, you know, and then half an hour later,
118
I'm hearing my name be yelled out outside, and me and him are like, what the hell, we look out the window, she's there in my front porch,
119
just, like, calling for me so i go outside
120
and i'm like yo like what are you doing here
121
and she was like oh my gosh like i was bored
122
and i wanted to like meet him blah blah
123
and i was like could i like let me know beforehand honestly this isn't
124
that crazy compared to anything but um she came in
125
and then we were all kind of hanging out
126
and she like was meeting him
127
and then she was like oh i have to do some homework
128
so i'm gonna sit here and do homework and all me
129
and her were like why did she even show up then
130
but then later we were talking we were all talking
131
and stuff um and then she mentioned like us always getting in flights
132
or something because this was us like recently like
133
reconciled from that one fight and then she was like yeah man is always in the wrong
134
and then he was like i don't think that's true then
135
i was there i was like i wasn't really saying anything
136
and she was like oh it's true she's always in the wrong he's like i doubt
137
that i don't think it is because he also knew what just happened right um
138
and i was like okay guys you know let's talk about something else
139
because it was getting like pretty awkward but i was like what do you mean i'm always in the wrong
140
what um but then oh my god
141
um there's probably more crazy stuff that happened
142
when i was with them we ended up breaking up anyways but who cares and then um
143
um I remember my birthday rolled around right and I think it was
144
that same birthday yeah the one right after that
145
because this was like two years ago right um
146
that same birthday rolled around and I invited her
147
and a bunch of my other friends for my new school right we'll all hang out
148
and I didn't know this until like recently like a few months ago my friend told me this
149
basically i was um getting pretty close to this one friend at my school right like he was pretty cool
150
and um and
151
and she knew about this right we're just gonna call her
152
what should we call her lady lady knew about this right
153
and then when they were all hanging out at my house i went to go do something
154
and that one friend
155
that i made i'm we're gonna call him jack jack was getting some water from the fridge
156
and lady was kind of like near him
157
and then she was like jack i'm gonna kill you like full seriously he turned out
158
and was like what and then she just walked away
159
and whispered she was like amanda's my best friend not yours i think the silence says a lot about this
160
because what what um it was like really
161
weird yeah he told me this recently i was like why
162
would you not tell me this beforehand i would have like said something to her right um okay
163
and then i remember we there we went to a camp It was, like, a week -long camp, right?
164
And there was, like, um, I got a new boyfriend.
165
A much better one.
166
We're still together to this day.
167
Um, love you, Jai.
168
so we me jai and lady were all kind of hanging out right um oh
169
and there was like a couple other friends there too we
170
were in this like lodge type of place we're all sitting down
171
and i was honestly like i wasn't in my best state
172
because i had just like there was a bunch of stuff
173
that just happened and she knew about this she knew
174
that i was honestly kind of upset
175
and i was kind of like like I was on my
176
phone trying to just like mainly calm down you know no I didn't really want to talk to many people
177
and then she she put her like leg on my leg
178
and I was like low key I don't want to use the word overstimulate like that's weird
179
but I was like kind of like not really feeling it
180
so I low -key just like gently kind of like pushed it off
181
because it was like you know and then she got really upset
182
and I didn't really clock it until she was like ignoring
183
me after she was like oh why like everyone noticed though
184
you know what she said happened she said i yelled
185
that i was like get your leg off me what
186
so i was like are we serious like you
187
that never happened i was telling i was like okay
188
that never happened and like she was like okay well why would you push my leg off anyways
189
and i was like you knew that a lot happened
190
that day and then i wasn't really like feeling well why are you expecting a lot of me like that
191
and mind you one of my other friends was also there
192
with us i asked her about it she was like i didn't even notice anything happened
193
which means i didn't say anything i didn't yell out like crazy right um
194
and then like she was saying she was like oh well stuff gonna happened with me, too, like, um, blah, blah,
195
blah, like, something that happened with my family, too, like, you don't think about my feelings, and it's, like, the main difference is you knew something was happening with me,
196
I didn't know anything was happening with you, too, you said if something could have been happening, so that means nothing happened, like, I don't even understand her point here, like, I'm actually shocked to this day, I don't really know what happened,
197
right, we ended up making up, right, and I remember the, um, my boyfriend, and that one random friend that was there, they were all, they both thought it was weird, like, they were talking, and they're like,
198
why would you, like, do that, like, like, it's weird, right,
199
um, and then, comes back around to my birthday, she also, she did quite a few weird things,
200
like, she was always being weird with my boyfriend, she, well, not the weird way she wants him, but she was always, like, challenging him, she was like,
201
oh, like, Amanda's, Amanda would pick me over you.
202
Lady, shut up.
203
Like, actually being weird.
204
And she would try to make him buy her things, and it's like, you're not that person.
205
Go back to your spot, right?
206
And then, um, Jesus, we're just getting kind of long, sorry.
207
I, um, so my birthday rolled around again and we were at my house, and I'm Brazilian, so we have this,
208
like, tradition where you give the first slice of cake to the person you love most, so everyone was, like, oh my gosh, like, who's she gonna give it to,
209
she's gonna give it to her best friend or her boyfriend, and I was, like, bitch, I'm not gonna give it to any of y 'all, I'm gonna give it to my mom, my mom, my boyfriend actually suggested this,
210
I'm taking credit, um, and then I gave it to my mom, right, and everyone's, like, oh that's sweet blah blah
211
and then like i kind of noticed a shift in lady's
212
behavior she was like on her ipad the whole time
213
because she like got her phone taken away or something
214
and then she was like kind of calling her parents she's kind of being like iffy
215
and it was kind of like putting the attention all on
216
her like in a weird way right like where she was
217
like about to cry um i didn't think it was about the cake i didn't think it was about
218
that at all um but then that night
219
when they all left i was still with my boyfriend
220
and then i got a text message from her saying like
221
oh why would you get why wouldn't you give the cake to me like are you serious and i was like
222
i gave it to my mom my mother flabbergasted just shocked to my core
223
i literally was like there's no way you're serious about this right now
224
but she actually ended up apologizing first time in like her whole friendship guys
225
um and then like a month after or something like
226
that i we were like talking
227
or something she was like oh by the way my graduation is on this day
228
and i was like okay cool like i'll be i'll make sure to go
229
and she was like yeah i'll let you know what like the price is for the banquet
230
and stuff for like um when you go and i was like banquet because um
231
because we're in canada right banquet is like kind of i thought it was like a family thing
232
and they're expensive mine was like 100 bucks per person mind you i have no job no source of income
233
so i told i was like yo i don't think i'll
234
be able to make it to your banquet i'm totally going
235
to your graduation i don't think i'll be making it to your banquet though I don't have any money
236
and she's like why can't you just save and I was like
237
so you see
238
when someone has no source of income I have one dollar now in a month I'll still have a dollar
239
because I have no source of income probably have less actually
240
but she wouldn't grasp it
241
and she was like oh well I saved to get something
242
for your birthday oh yeah it was the first time she
243
ever got me a present for my birthday right like actually got me a present for my birthday
244
and she was saying how she saved money for
245
that she got a thousand dollars for christmas my birthday is
246
like a few weeks after christmas right you have money there's a difference there's a difference um
247
and i was like i literally told i was like didn't you get a thousand bucks for christmas and even
248
so using my a birthday present against me is kind of
249
crazy in my mind like that's kind of insane i don't see why you would do
250
that um that's rude especially considering it's the first time you've ever gotten me anything
251
and then she was like really mad she was like oh
252
like why didn't like she will keep tweaked out right um i don't have the messages anymore
253
if i did i would read them out loud
254
but she was like really mad i kind of okay in a way i kind of understand being upset
255
because it's like it's your banquet but it's like they're expensive you can't expect me to do that, you know, and I've been to one of the banquets from that school before, they literally stand on the stage,
256
and everyone else stands in, like, a table, I'm gonna stand with no one that I know, I'm not gonna be with anyone, I'm not even gonna be with her, why does she want me there,
257
but, um, she was, like, really upset, and I was, like, I was, like, okay, crazy that you're using my birthday stuff against me,
258
and I'm not your girlfriend, you can't expect me to go everywhere you want me to go, it's kind of harsh, but at that point, I was, like, kind of done with everything, right, like, everyone was telling me,
259
they're, like, yo, like, she's toxic, that's all, you have to, like, stand your ground, um, and then she was, like, okay, Amanda, and then she,
260
like, anointed me on everything, and I was, like, okay, so we stopped being friends then, right, and that's not even the end of the story, bro, not even the end of the story,
261
um, every one of our mutual friends took her side, because she was, like, the more outgoing one, right, like, she's the one that everyone prefers, because she's funnier,
262
and they wouldn't even come to me to ask what happened they just kind of all took her side
263
and she was posting some stuff about me being homophobic and racist i actually had to look around and be like
264
me so she was like oh
265
when she also posted something about like me choosing my boyfriend over her
266
which i was like this wasn't even what it was about wasn't even what the argument was about mind you. but
267
yeah she sometimes still posts stuff to me about me to
268
this day we stopped being friends like six months ago mind you
269
but honestly that was kind of weird kind of a crazy experience
270
don't let yourself get caught up in something like that really hope she doesn't find this video

Sobre esta lição
Nesta prática, você vai mergulhar em uma conversa informal em inglês, repleta de expressões coloquiais e tons naturais. O objetivo é treinar a escuta, a pronúncia e a fluência, usando a técnica de shadowing em inglês. A conversa fala sobre uma amizade complicada, com detalhes cotidianos que ajudam a entender como falamos no dia a dia — perfeito para quem quer aprender a se expressar de forma mais autêntica!
Vocabulário e frases-chave
- "Bullcrap": Palavra informal para "coisas sem sentido" ou "mentiras". Exemplo: "There's some crazy bullcrap" (Tem algumas coisas loucas sem sentido).
- "Click": No contexto, significa "fazer sentido" ou "clarear". Exemplo: "It all kind of clicked" (Tudo começou a fazer sentido).
- "Low-key": Significa "de forma discreta" ou "um pouco". Exemplo: "That was low-key weird" (Isso foi um pouco estranho).
- "Tone down": Reduzir a intensidade. Exemplo: "Tone down the JJK stuff" (Reduza um pouco os assuntos sobre JJK).
- "Set boundaries": Estabelecer limites. Exemplo: "We're setting boundaries" (Estamos estabelecendo limites).
Dicas de prática
O shadow speak é uma técnica poderosa: ouça uma frase curta, pause e repita imediatamente, copiando o tom, a velocidade e a pronúncia. A conversa tem um ritmo natural, com pausas e interrupções (como "um" ou "like"), então use essas brechas para se adaptar. Comece com trechos de 5-10 segundos, como a parte sobre o aniversário ("Whenever her birthday would come around..."). Isso ajuda a melhorar a pronúncia em inglês e a fluência de forma rápida!
Lembre: o objetivo não é ser perfeito, mas se acostumar a falar como um nativo. Com shadowspeaks, você vai notar progressos em poucas semanas — e se divertir enquanto aprende com histórias reais!
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| Frases condicionais if + oração, will/would + verbo — uma condição e seu resultado | if i did i would read |
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | i've ever seen · you've ever gotten · I've been |
| Past continuous was/were + -ing — uma ação em andamento em um momento do passado | was really freaking · was never really bringing · wasn't answering |

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.
