White hair?
51
Grandma?
52
Everyone started staring at my hair.
53
I was so embarrassed that I ran home to dye my hair.
54
Thankfully, I had a big stock saved up.
55
When I got home, I walked into our room to find my sister screaming at her empty closets.
56
My bags!
57
My shoes!
58
My babies!
59
Where are they?
60
Just then, I saw my cupboard door hang open.
61
Oh no!
62
Oh my god!
63
Where are all my hair dyes?
64
We turned to each other.
65
Our brother!
66
We ran to his room and found him practically rolling in money.
67
Turns out he'd sold all our stuff online.
68
I wouldn't have cared if he had stolen my clothes.
69
But I was really upset about my hair dyes.
70
There was nothing I could even do, except vent my frustration in my journal.
71
I started writing stories featuring my crazy family.
72
One night, when my sister was talking to her boyfriend on the phone, She had to pee so she asked me to take the phone and say "hmm" to everything he said till she returned.
73
That's when I heard him talking about a website called Wattpad.
74
where anyone could publish their stories.
75
So I started sending in the ones I'd written about my family, under a fake name of course, Otherwise my siblings would kill me to my absolute delight.
76
People love my stories.
77
I was flooded with comments from fans and I would even hear kids talking about them at school all the time.
78
The best part! people started messaging me for paid writing jobs.
79
This was perfect!
80
I could actually help mom doing something I loved!
81
While my online popularity was rising, things weren't so great at school.
82
My hair had turned completely white by now.
83
And that gave Julia all the more reason to bully me.
84
And no one dared to be friends with me because of her.
85
But that gave me another idea.
86
I started following her around, and started writing stories about all her boyfriends.
87
Once I saw her kissing the captain of the soccer team, right after she went on a date with the class president.
88
And then the next day she made out with the captain of the swim team.
89
I was so surprised I accidentally tripped and fell out of the bushes I was hiding in.
90
As soon as Julia saw me, she looked furious.
91
Are you stalking me, you pervert?
92
I.. no, no. I was just...
93
Picking berries.
94
I grabbed a fistful and stuffed them in my mouth and then gagged.
95
They were so bitter.
96
Julia stepped close to me.
97
I don't know what you're playing at.
98
But you should know, I'm not into girls, you weirdo.
99
Then she walked away while I sat in the bush, and everyone eyed me like I was a creep.
100
The next few weeks were brutal.
101
No matter what I did, Julia was there calling me a perv or a weirdo.
102
She told everyone I was crushing on her.
103
A few days later, I was sitting in the cafeteria when Julia came up and dumped a bag on me.
104
Take these hair dyes!
105
You look like a homeless old woman and this school has a reputation.
106
Just stop embarrassing us with this hair, Bonbon!
107
As her minion snickered, I rose from the table and pushed the bag away and stood up to leave.
108
"Leave me alone, Julia or else Aww, I'm so scared.
109
And what will you do, huh?
110
Then she and her minions took out all the dyes and dumped them on my hair.
111
Blue, black, red, purple, everything!
112
I pushed them back and yelled, What have you done, you psycho?
113
I slapped Julia right in the face and ran to the bathroom.
114
My hair looked like turd.
115
I washed it and thankfully all the color came off.
116
I was so mad that I went home
117
and wrote a story where I gave Julia the lesson I wished she would get in real life.
118
As soon as I published it, I received a message on my Wattpad account from a fan ID free prisoner.
119
I love all your stories.
120
especially the bully story, so I just had to message.
121
Your characters are so relatable.
122
I guess we both were stuck with crazy people.
123
We started exchanging messages more often and I felt like I'd finally made a friend.
124
One day at the school cafeteria, I was riding crazy fast to meet my deadline, and I didn't even realize it when someone came and sat next to me pushing a can of juice towards me.
125
Can I get you something to eat?
126
You look like you're on a mission to save the world.
127
I looked up.
128
And for a few seconds, I was so lost in his dreamy blue eyes.
129
I'm pretty sure I looked like a dumb puppy.
130
Hi, I'm Eric.
131
Do I know you?
132
No, but I know you.
133
You're kinda hard to miss with that hair.
134
I know you think my hair is weird, No. I think it's amazing.
135
You look really cool.
136
I stared at him in shock.
137
Who was this boy?
138
I wanted to talk to him more.
139
But just then, I got a message from Free Prisoner.
140
I think I'm falling for you.
141
You're just so incredible.
142
Oh my god.
143
He had a crush on me?
144
The next day, while I was working in the library, it got really late.
145
Everyone was gone and I only looked up when I heard a noise.
146
I felt freaked out.
147
Just then, I saw Eric walking towards me.
148
"I'm beginning to think you're stalking me." Eric laughed and said, Yeah, maybe.
149
But also, I work here, and I was about to lock up.
150
Want me to walk you home?
151
Yes, please.
152
Eric was so funny and adorable.
153
He insisted on walking me home every time.
154
I was definitely attracted to him and it made me feel a little confused.
155
What was I gonna do about Free Prisoner?
156
One day, free prisoner asked me out on a date.
157
I agreed.
158
I needed to see who he really was.
159
When I arrived at the address, My jaw dropped.
160
It was a mansion bigger than ours used to be.
161
I was greeted at the front door by Butler.
162
who then led me to a large drawing room.
163
And there were lit candles and flowers everywhere.
164
At the far end was a high chair, And when someone suddenly spoke, I've been dying to meet you.
165
Wait.
166
Why was this voice so familiar?
167
When the girls stepped in front of me, we both stared in horror at each other and shrieked It was Julia!
168
Your free prisoner?
169
You're the frickin' writer I have a crush on?
170
You have a crush on me?
171
Julia looked insane!
172
Of course not!
173
How could I have a crush on you?
174
You're gonna pay for this, Bonnie.
175
Now get out of my house!
176
I was only too glad to.
177
I couldn't believe the person I'd been friends with for months was Crazy Julia.
178
And by the next morning, I walked into the most horrific scene.
179
The school hallways were full of posters of me.
180
They read, The White Witch can't be trusted.
181
Everyone in school knew the writer was me.
182
Julia was going around telling everybody how I was a terrible person who wrote mean stories about her family
183
and kids from school just to get popular.
184
Why would we want to be friends with someone like her?
185
She can't be trusted!
186
She'll be writing all kinds of things about us!
187
Freak!
188
But even worse than everybody suddenly hating me at school, I was in so much trouble back home.
189
My siblings were so mad about the stories I wrote about them.
190
We know we tease you, but we never thought you could be so mean.
191
Guys!
192
It's not like that!
193
I never meant for anyone to know who those characters were!
194
But they wouldn't listen to my protest and stop talking to me.
195
Later that night.
196
Mom came to my room and asked me why I had been writing these stories.
197
I handed an envelope to her for my drawer.
198
I only wanted to help you out, mom.
199
She let out a cry when she saw the cash inside.
200
"Pani !" You're a kid!
201
You don't need to worry about money.
202
I'm not going to take this.
203
How about we use it for your hair?
204
Yeah, Mom.
205
Let's do this, I guess.
206
The next day, I decided to fix everything.
207
I went up to the stage during morning assembly and nervously cleared my throat.
208
Ahem.
209
I...
210
I just wanted to say sorry to my siblings.
211
and anyone else who might have been hurt or offended by my stories.
212
I only used you guys as inspiration and you made such interesting characters.
213
But it wasn't right of me to use anyone's secrets
214
and I won't be writing on Wattpad anymore as I ran out of the auditorium.
215
Someone caught up with me.
216
It was Eric.
217
"Hey, that writer is you?" Oh man, your stories are hilarious!
218
I wanted to ask you something a long time ago.
219
Will you be my girlfriend?
220
I grinned and pulled him in for a kiss.
221
From the corner of my eye, I saw Julia storming off, and I followed her to the girls' bathroom.
222
What do you want, freak?
223
I just wanted to say...
224
You and I have been friends for months online.
225
We can actually get along.
226
Why can't we be friends for real, Julia?
227
She started to laugh.
228
Friends?
229
Oh babe, how is that even possible?
230
Look at your face, and your personality, and your ugly hair.
231
I give charity to the poor.
232
I don't befriend them.
233
Well, look around you, Julia.
234
I don't think you have any real friends.
235
I'm here if you change your mind.
236
And then I started to walk away.
237
Don't hold your breath!
238
Well, after that, things got a little better because my siblings forgave me, especially when they realized my stories hadn't affected their popularity one bit.
239
I stopped writing and spent all my time with Eric, who asked me out to prom.
240
That night, I went home with a big smile on my face.
241
Mom was waiting for me to dye my hair, And then I said, "You know what, Mom?
242
I like my white hair." I'm born to stand out.
243
Why should I try so hard to fit in?
244
It's cool to be different.
245
Mom smiled and hugged me.
246
I'm so proud of you, Bonnie.
247
Next day, When Julia found out that Eric and I were nominated for prom king and queen, She completely lost it.
248
She went too far.
249
On the night of the prom, she started throwing a huge tantrum and even tried to snatch my crown.
250
That's mine!
251
I'm the only queen this school has.
252
Not this ugly beggar with the ugliest hair I've ever seen!
253
When the principal intervened, Julia called her an old hag, and dump the whole bowl of punch on her.
254
An hour later, She was expelled!
255
Even though so many of the others laughed, I felt sorry for her because I knew there was a nice person inside her.
256
But all her insecurities just made her a big bully.
257
After that, High school was not so crazy.
258
I got a scholarship for a writing program, And four years later, I joined a publishing house as a book editor.
259
Fast forward a few years, and I'm married to Eric now, with two beautiful kids.
260
And they are the only ones I write stories for.

O Cenário: Uma História de Transformação e Resiliência
No vídeo "I'm The Real Life Elsa", acompanhamos a jornada de Bonnie, uma jovem que lida com uma condição que deixa seus cabelos brancos e com mudanças abruptas na vida familiar após a perda de riqueza de seu pai. O diálogo reflete situações reais de interação social, como confrontos com bullying, adaptação a novas realidades e comunicação em contextos delicados. Essa narrativa é perfeita para a prática de conversação em inglês, pois combina expressões cotidianas com emoções intensas, ajudando a treinar a fluência e a compreensão de situações reais.
Trechos Úteis e Colocações para Memorizar
- "Inherited the problem from you": Expressão comum para falar de traços genéticos. Útil em conversas sobre família ou saúde.
- "Freaked out": Significa "ficar apavorado/a". Uma coloção informal usada em situações de surpresa ou ansiedade.
- "Revolved around": Descreve algo que é o centro de atenção. Exemplo: "Sua vida gira em torno de compras" (Her life revolved around shopping).
- "Dropped us off": Expressão para "deixar alguém em um lugar". Comum em contextos de transporte ou rotinas diárias.
- "Blocked me": Significa "me bloquear" fisicamente ou verbalmente. Útil em histórias de conflitos ou interrupções.
Seu Desafio de Shadowing: Repita e Imite!
O shadowing em inglês (técnica de repetir imediatamente após o áudio) é uma das melhores formas de melhorar a pronúncia e a fluência. Para esse desafio, escolha um trecho de 30 segundos do vídeo (por exemplo, a cena em que Bonnie é confrontada na escola). Siga estes passos: 1) Ouça o trecho uma vez para entender o contexto. 2) Repita cada frase imediatamente após o narrador, imitando a entonação e o ritmo. 3) Grave sua voz e compare com o original. 4) Repita até que sua fala fique o mais próxima possível. Essa prática, conhecida como shadowspeak ou shadow speak, ajuda a treinar o cérebro a processar e produzir o inglês de forma natural. Lembre-se: a chave é a consistência! Faça isso diariamente e veja a evolução na sua conversação.
Gramática neste vídeo
As estruturas que o falante mais usa, com as palavras exatas do vídeo:
| Estrutura | No vídeo |
|---|---|
| “Used to” used to + verbo — um hábito ou estado do passado que não é mais verdade | used to be |
| Voz passiva be + particípio passado — o foco está no que acontece, não em quem faz | was flooded · were stuck · was definitely attracted |
| Present perfect have/has + particípio passado — uma ação passada que ainda importa agora | has inherited · have you done · have been |
| Past continuous was/were + -ing — uma ação em andamento em um momento do passado | was staring · was transforming · was doing |
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.
