Criando lição...
1
Oh, hello.
2
This is Taylor.
3
I am a 26 year old former management consultant, recently turned full-time creator, living and working here in New York City.
4
And welcome to my bedroom terrace.
5
Guys, I forget every single year just how magical this city becomes when the weather warms up.
6
And I absolutely live for those rogue, random 70 degree days that we'll have in the middle of the winter sometimes.
7
The whole entire city comes out to play, myself included.
8
And today, we have another one.
9
Although we're starting to have more and more.
10
I think the season's actually just changing.
11
But regardless, we have a packed day and best believe I'm taking you guys with me.
12
So maybe pack a little lunch, get some water, maybe go to the bathroom, do what you need to do.
13
But let's get started, shall we?
14
You don't actually think I leave my house without making coffee first.
15
Okay, I actually needed to answer some emails, but we're done.
16
I just signed a contract for my next brand deal, responded to a couple other things, and almost finished my coffee.
17
Kind of.
18
Okay, let's go.
19
I love how even though it's a spring I still dress like a vampire.
20
I always will.
21
Wow what a beautiful day.
22
Everyone's out and about again.
23
Well today is a Tuesday so not everyone some people have to work but you know a lot more than usual.
24
obsessed by the way with these blue fire escapes.
25
I think, oh my god, it's so cool.
26
It really catches your eye.
27
I don't think it looks tacky.
28
Okay, prime example of why I love New York when the sun comes out, you just run into friends.
29
What's up guys?
30
This is Harry.
31
Howdy.
32
Harry's awesome.
33
I know I say this all the time, but it's interactions like this that make New York City feel like a playground for adults.
34
For such a huge city, it is incredibly small and compact at the same time.
35
I run into friends literally all the time, and I absolutely love it.
36
It really makes it feel like a huge college campus in a lot of ways.
37
Anyway, Harry and I hung out here unexpectedly for almost an hour.
38
He's the absolute best.
39
We've been friends for like almost eight years at this point.
40
And now please enjoy this montage of Harry being the kindest heckler in the entire world.
41
How do you hop in this?
42
You have to take a big run up, hop in a skip.
43
You can a skit.
44
You can do it, sir.
45
I can see.
46
You just got to limber up a bit.
47
You got to hurdle it.
48
If you want a boost, I can leg you.
49
I'll do it.
50
Why are you not on the other side of the fence?
51
I don't trust her.
52
I have to keep a bit of distance.
53
Are you both British?
54
No, this is me.
55
She's Californian.
56
I like your hat, sir, by the way.
57
Very cool.
58
Best hat of the day.
59
You're a heckler.
60
Yeah, but like a nice one.
61
Obviously, yeah.
62
That was so much fun.
63
I'm so glad you guys got to meet Harry.
64
He's a very good egg.
65
All right, we're actually going to take the bus to our next location because when the weather is this nice, I just want to stay above ground.
66
So let's do that.
67
I also think the bus in New York City is so underrated.
68
Bus is really good on some routes.
69
This stop is massive speed in East Harbor.
70
All right guys, here we are at the Oculus.
71
This is the World Trade Center transportation hub and a mall.
72
It's a mall.
73
I'm about to go make a big purchase inside of there at a tech store.
74
All right, but first some quick specs on this bad boy.
75
This was designed by one of my favorite architects, Santiago Calatrava.
76
He is a Spanish architect.
77
And I've actually had the pleasure of seeing a number of his works, including the Arts and Sciences Center in Valencia, Spain, which is where he's from.
78
I'm gonna have to dig up some pictures of me in front of there.
79
It was like circa 2019.
80
I had really long, damaged, bleached blonde hair.
81
I'll find some pictures.
82
But anyway, here's another one.
83
And I know that this bad boy cost $4 billion to make, which was double the original estimate.
84
Baller.
85
But apparently a pain in the ass for the city.
86
Anyway, he's not even one of my favorites because I think it's super visually beautiful.
87
It is beautiful, but anyway, I just know that he really pushes the boundaries of what is actually structurally possible
88
and all of his works really resemble like bones and living things and like a lot of spines.
89
Also for reference, it is right outside the World Trade Center, which is this big guy, and Ground Zero, which we can go take a look at in a few minutes.
90
Here it is.
91
It's pretty iconic.
92
Look at all those little ants down there.
93
Am I right?
94
This is the tech store, if you've ever heard of it.
95
All of a sudden, I made the purchase.
96
There it is, by the way, in all its glory.
97
I will show you guys the purchase I made once we get back home.
98
But first, and it's a cool one, but first I'm going to show you guys Ground Zero.
99
This is where the original footprint of the Twin Towers was and they have every single person's name printed out, organized by flight I believe.
100
And I just think it's really, really well done.
101
I remember finding a YouTube video at some point showing what
102
the life is like of the guys who go down in there and clean it.
103
My YouTube rabbit holes, you know.
104
But anyway, would recommend coming to see it if you visit the city.
105
Yeah, I think it's very well done.
106
I'm going to go.
107
Hello.
108
Let's get into it.
109
Oh, okay.
110
So this bad boy cost me a pretty penny.
111
Much like the Calatrava building.
112
This also cost $4 billion.
113
But the specs on this are very powerful.
114
Powerful specs.
115
And I realized as I was buying this, this is the single biggest purchase I have ever made.
116
It's been kind of hard for me in my adulthood to break free of my frugal mentality.
117
But I really am trying to become more comfortable with spending money on the things that really matter.
118
This is a laptop, if you guys didn't realize.
119
And I just realized, while my computer was crashing a couple months ago, while I was trying to edit a video, technology should not be a bottleneck.
120
It's just silly for me to not have the best possible machine for me to do my job.
121
Anyway, not to make a huge deal out of this, but this is exciting.
122
This has 64 gigabytes of RAM because video editing, especially editing 4K footage, which I do, and the more complex the project is with a lot of
123
layers like it just takes up a lot of memory
124
so I really upgraded the memory I got more than what I actually need
125
because that will future proof this thing
126
and it also has two terabytes of internal storage yeah the
127
specs can go even up from here I have a friend who has maxed out specs
128
and that's an eight thousand dollar computer but this should do
129
and I'm so excited to use it okay I'll shut up and let's do a little ASMR here shall we Ta-da!
130
I'll give you guys the first hello.
131
Hi!
132
Howdy!
133
Alright, we will play this later.
134
I actually don't have much time to waste right now because we need to get ready.
135
So let's do that.
136
Anyways, we're gonna go meet a friend for drinks in the West Village and it's a Tuesday mind you.
137
I love my job.
138
Yeah one of the benefits of being a full-time creator
139
that I actually didn't anticipate is that more often than I expected am I planning my days around the weather.
140
Obviously that applies a bit more in the spring and summer.
141
If I'm planning a vlog or something like
142
that I can do it on a day that I know is going to be sunny and nice like today.
143
And then when I see
144
that it's going to be kind of gross I can try to make
145
that like an editing day you know what i mean an unanticipated benefit
146
but it's pretty sweet yeah this is the perfume i've been
147
wearing for a few months now i absolutely love it gucci bloom not sponsored i wish okay
148
all right just biked to west village
149
and ran into another friend i always say it feels like like a playground for adults and that's exactly why.
150
Anyway, I'm about to get to the bar.
151
It is a little chillier now, I'm not gonna lie, but it's still, I'm still feeling good.
152
Vibes are good.
153
The I
154
don't like to say.
155
Hello.
156
I just got home a little bit ago.
157
What a fun day.
158
I'll tell you more when I get in bed because I still have to shower, take off my makeup, brush my teeth, but then I want to chat with you guys a little bit.
159
I guess one kind of unfun update to keep things real.
160
I think I completely effed up my bed sheets.
161
I washed my really, really nice cream sheets with a black jacket that I wear.
162
I thought I had washed the black jacket before, but this must've been the first time.
163
And so the black kind of stained the sheets and I don't totally know what to do about it.
164
So that's not fun.
165
Anyway, I'm not gonna put them in the dryer cause I know
166
that will just set the stain and I'm gonna troubleshoot it tomorrow.
167
But for tonight, I'm gonna sleep on top of my throw blanket and I'm using this t-shirt as a pillowcase.
168
Oh well, that's life.
169
Let's shower.
170
People have asked me my skincare routine for a long time.
171
I guess you're kind of getting it now.
172
I've never posted one.
173
It's tough though because my routine truly differs in some way, shape, or form pretty much every single night depending on what my skin needs.
174
I'm getting in my little makeshift bed here.
175
I'm going to read my book for a bit before I go to bed, but I just was thinking about today.
176
And it's days like today that just make me so happy to be in New York City.
177
It really is just the liveliest place filled with the best people in the world.
178
I mean, you know, my friends.
179
And today, all I had planned was just a day out on the town, kind of by myself, and bringing you guys along, and then, like, running into Harry in the Park, and then going for drinks later, and getting pizza at that place.
180
Like, that was all just totally spontaneous, and I don't know.
181
It's stuff like that that just makes me happy to be in the city, and also just really grateful for this huge career transitionary part of my life.
182
Transitionary? that's a word but yeah this career change has been both incredibly exciting
183
and very very challenging in many ways but most importantly it's been very fulfilling
184
and for that I am super grateful
185
so anyway thank you guys for spending the day with me
186
today I know this uh this setup looks a little jank right now normally I have really big fluffy pillows
187
and a super super inviting bed you guys saw it this morning just remember this morning but we're keeping it real.

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.
