Guys, I think this might be one of the most exciting days of my entire time here.

I'm getting a bike!

Oh my god, the van's driving.

Somewhere on that van is my bike.

If you followed me through quarantine, you'd know that I randomly fell in love with my bike.

It became this escape when I was trapped in the house.

I would cycle for almost an hour a day.

And then, by some beautiful luck, I came to one of the bikiest cities in the world.

Also, as an ode to my Dutch heritage, I feel like I have to like cycling.

I have to prove it to my grandma.

Look at it, it's so pretty.

So basically I pay 15 euros a month and I get this bike

and any repairs I need any damage is all included in

the 15 euros I can just get it repaired for free it has a pretty light built into it

which is powered by me cycling

so at night I can cycle it'll just be illuminated

and then because I'm not staying here that long I can just return it

and just cancel my subscription fee and that's it.

The guy arrived, he gave me a little rundown of how cycling works in Berlin.

He showed me how to use my bike lock and I'm not gonna lie to you, I failed.

It was really embarrassing.

Yeah, I had to do it like three times

and he was just kind of like standing there awkwardly

because I couldn't do it and my germ is so limited I couldn't make a small talk.

Despite the fact I'm a morning person, this is the first time I've woken up at 7am in three weeks.

I'm embarrassingly tired and dead and it's freezing outside it's like oh like five degrees

autumn is coming but I have to admit this summer is very pretty okay context

so this weekend was an amazing weekend I had such a

good time one of my close friends from the UK was here

so I spent the whole weekend just showing her around soaking up Berlin enjoying myself

but this week I have three assignments due.

I have to write a crazy number of words.

I have like a million readings.

I have so many classes.

I basically just have a lot of work and commitments this week.

So instead of feeling guilty, which I'm not going to do because life is for enjoying.

I had a great weekend.

And instead of getting stressed, which I'm also not going to do because stress and worrying

really doesn't help you if anything it cripples you and stops you getting work done in a rational, efficient way.

Last night I made a plan.

I committed to an early night.

I committed to an early morning.

I found an amazing place to study today.

This is my first time going to a library.

I've planned out my priorities for this week.

I've planned out my deadlines, what I'm going to do when.

And today is a study day, wholeheartedly.

So I'm going to quickly do some kind of exercise just to wake myself up.

It'll increase my mental clarity.

It'll mean I can sit down and study for most of the day and be okay.

I'm going to eat breakfast.

Then I'm going to get on my bike and head to a library.

We go smash this week.

My roommates normally wake up later than me and honestly this is the most necessary time of my day.

I do my own thing, I chill, I set up my life.

I wash my hair occasionally because it takes forever.

And if there's one thing in my routine which always stays it is porridge.

I am a porridge girl through and through.

Congrats dad you got to me.

Let's go find a library.

What happened to the weather today?

This is amazing.

On Saturday, it was so rainy, and I'm just too optimistic, so I thought the weather would get better in the day.

So I just didn't dress for rain, and I ended up in these shoes, squelching every single step.

I was like, orderling along rainy Berlin.

I haven't been to this area yet.

Casual palace.

Gorgeous, golden building.

And just not to mention the blue sky cute casual bike.

I need to get a helmet by the way.

Safety.

Sorry mum.

And here she is, the library.

Am I in the Netherlands or?

I'm getting a few words I know.

Okay so you know I had these really dramatic incredible plans to go to a library for the the first time, sit down, slay my work.

Apparently you have to book a study slot a week in advance

because that's how booked up it has gotten during COVID when loads of uni campuses are like running differently, which means I'm not going to the library today.

So that's fine.

We're still going to slay the work.

We're still going to be optimistic.

This is where all the research I've ever done is useful

because I went and researched loads of cafes that have wifi

and outlets and are known as good co-working spaces and I saved them in my Google Maps.

So now I'm in this new area.

I've saved a bunch which are quite near here.

And there's one place I actually really wanted to try and it opens at 10.

Maybe one day I'll come here.

This cafe is very cool.

The chai latte is one of my absolute favourite.

Chai is where it's at.

You and I can weather any storm Okay, so I did make a bit of a plan yesterday for

my priorities for the week I've got a lot of deadlines

I've got many assignments due this week I've also got three classes tomorrow

Which I need to do readings for I'm trying to save us really calmly

Because I thought of it It's actually very stressful But we're gonna split it up, it'll be okay.

My priority for today is to completely finish my B110 assignment, which is gonna require me digging into a lot of primary literature,

critiquing literature, designing, study, and I need to do all my readings for my contemplative science class tomorrow.

And I need to plan my second assignment.

100

Priorities.

101

Okay.

102

Cheers to productivity.

103

No limit to what we can do Oh,

104

well you know what we have, let's hold on tight Found what we're looking for in life Hello, okay, okay, an update And I'm in public

105

so this is slightly awkward as I can

106

So I have done the first draft of my B1 tennis set I still need to go through

107

and complete my references I need to cut it down into the word limit because right now it's way over.

108

But I've got to say I love this topic.

109

It's all about consumer behavior research and I'm positioning it specifically within the sustainability space.

110

So I'm basically digging into primary literature about products that have sustainable benefits, that are considered green products.

111

This talk will probably be public, but I'm going to tell you about my assignment later.

112

So vlogging in public is not the one.

113

Um, let me tell you more about my assignment.

114

Okay, so you know when you've got a product that is sustainable in some respect, maybe it's helping towards one of the climate change sustainable development goals, maybe it's helping limit water consumption,

115

maybe it's a meat alternative product.

116

I wanted to investigate the extent to which marketing a product as sustainable increases

117

or decreases the way that consumers view the quality of the product.

118

You see, I am really invested in sustainability and wanting people to make more sustainable choices.

119

And so I think it's fascinating that for certain hard attribute products, for example, cars or a lot of technology products,

120

tools, labeling anything as sustainably made or made from recycled materials generally decreases how we value that product.

121

So just thinking about globally, how can you get people to shift to more sustainable alternatives when naturally we have implicit biases against sustainable alternatives?

122

It's like, for example, food.

123

Say I bring you a cake and I'm like, oh, it's a vegan cake.

124

A lot of people will instantly think that it's going to taste worse just because it's vegan.

125

Whereas if you just say, oh, it's a cake and you try it and you like it and then I tell you it's vegan, then you don't already have that implicit bias against it.

126

Yeah, I just did a load of research into that

127

and I also designed a study that I would love to conduct

128

and then linked it to a bunch of different papers I'd already seen that had similar hypotheses.

129

There we go.

130

I've been here for three and a half hours.

131

I'm gonna head out soon because I've overstayed and I've had the cake, I've had I've had the drink.

132

I might go to a park for a bit, just do some readings, but yeah, I need to stretch and get up.

133

Before I do that, I'm just gonna read through my next assignment, get into the frame of mind, and then hopefully try and plan that later.

134

This is so gorgeous.

135

I love this weather.

136

It's still kind of fresh, kind of crisp, but sunny. So sunny.

137

I literally just sat here like a cloud watching.

138

I also think this is one of my favourite ways to spend a day.

139

Like go to a cafe, do a load of interesting work and then chill.

140

Do nothing for a while.

141

I'm actually gonna stretch a bit just

142

because I was sat down for ages Then I'm

143

gonna join my housemate Lara

144

at a cafe

145

What even is this city?

146

Even in the hard time You and I can't weather any storm

147

There was a lot more to this week than just that one day.

148

One night I had the luxury of going to this place called Tempelhoferfeld, which is an old abandoned airport.

149

Crazy!

150

I met up with a subscriber called Mariana.

151

She's from Portugal.

152

She is in ginger.

153

She had just come back from a yoga retreat, which is amazing.

154

What are you doing?

155

So the moon is super pink or orange according to Jade.

156

It's the most beautiful moon, it's full moon, it's super magical.

157

It's a full moon.

158

It really is.

159

We've had a really good conversation.

160

I also cook a lot and I hang out with my roommates

161

and I try and explore and I try and see Minervans and have petite chats.

162

I unfortunately do laundry which is you know a bit of a task but that's okay.

163

But more than anything and something I haven't really filmed that much is class.

164

This takes up my life.

165

Readings for class, three hours of readings per class.

166

Each class is an hour and a half.

167

Each class you get grilled in.

168

It's mentally intense.

169

Staff class, you're midnight.

170

And then there are all these random moments that I don't really film, but just make the day so much fun.

171

I love my housemates.

172

This is Pedro as well.

173

I don't think I've introduced him.

174

How's the dead food?

175

Ah!

176

Let's go!

177

He's also Brazilian.

178

He's basically my third roommate.

179

And I think this is where I'm gonna end today's vlog.

180

Unfortunately, this is where the mess begins.

181

The assignments are starting, the work gets worse.

182

But if I can tell you one thing, it's that I really love my life here.

183

Maybe that's why I haven't really been making that much content.

184

I just love life here.

185

I'm sending you so much love.

186

I'm sending you a virtual hug, COVID free, of course.

187

Have an amazing rest of your week.

188

Bye.

FOR YOU

Почему этот ролик идеален для практики разговорного английского?

Этот видеоролик — настоящий кладезь естественной речи: разговорчивый тон, повседневные выражения и эмоциональная окраска. Он подходит для тех, кто хочет улучшить произношение английского, потому что речь ведется живым языком, без заученных фраз. Сюжет о повседневности (получение велосипеда, учеба в универе) помогает понять, как разговаривают люди в реальных ситуациях, а не в учебниках. Это отличный материал для shadowing (техники «продублирования»), когда вы повторяете за говорящим сразу же, тренируя интонацию и ритм.

Анализ ключевых фраз: почему они звучат естественно?

«I'm not gonna lie to you, I failed» — Здесь используется сокращение «gonna» и разговорное выражение «I'm not gonna lie», которые делают речь живой. Ученики часто боятся сокращений, но в повседневной речи они обязательны. Это помогает освоить неформальный стиль.
«Stress and worrying really doesn't help you if anything it cripples you» — Фраза «if anything» добавляет нюанс «напротив» и делает высказывание более выразительным. Она показывает, как можно передать сложные мысли простыми словами, без лишней сложности.
«I committed to an early night. I committed to an early morning» — Повторение структуры «committed to» создает ритм, а фразы «early night» и «early morning» — яркие примеры коллокаций (связанных слов). Это важно для того, чтобы речь выглядела не только правильной, но и естественной.

Практический раутин: как учить английский по видео с помощью shadowing

Для эффективной практики используйте технику shadowspeak (или shadow speak): 1. Смотрите отрывок ролика (5–10 секунд) и слушайте внимательно интонацию и ритм. 2. Включите паузу и повторите фразу сразу же, пытаясь подражать всем нюансам. 3. Запишите себя и сравните с оригиналом: обращайте внимание на ударения и продолжительность звуков. 4. Повторяйте каждый отрывок 3–5 раз, пока речь не станет автоматической. Такой подход поможет не только учить английский по видео, но и привыкнуть к живой речи. Если вы ищете платформу для тренировок, используйте shadowing site — там можно найти инструменты для замедления или ускорения звука, что удобно для новичков.

Этот ролик доказывает: практика может быть увлекательной, если брать реальные истории. Поехали тренироваться — и вы скоро заметите прогресс!

Что такое техника Shadowing?

Shadowing — это научно обоснованная техника изучения языка, изначально разработанная для подготовки профессиональных переводчиков и популяризированная полиглотом доктором Александром Аргуэльесом. Метод прост, но эффективен: вы слушаете аудио на английском от носителей языка и немедленно повторяете вслух — как тень, следующая за говорящим с задержкой в 1–2 секунды. В отличие от пассивного прослушивания или грамматических упражнений, Shadowing заставляет мозг и мышцы рта одновременно обрабатывать и воспроизводить реальные речевые паттерны. Исследования показывают, что это значительно улучшает точность произношения, интонацию, ритм, связную речь, понимание на слух и беглость речи — что делает его одним из самых эффективных методов для подготовки к IELTS Speaking и реального общения на английском.
