- Hello, this is Taylor.

Welcome to what I'm turning into, a what I spend in a day in New York City.

You might know the popular version, what I spend in a week in New York City.

but it's just 24 hours today.

And I'm filming this because I have some fun bopping around, and some errands and all that good stuff to do in New York City today, and...

I have a feeling it's gonna add up a wee bit.

It's an overcast, lovely day in New York.

I gotta address it.

I don't know if you guys will give a hoot at all, but I couldn't find my regular sunglasses, the ones I wear every single day.

For those who don't know, these are the ones I wear every single day.

Couldn't find them this morning, but it's an overcast day, and that's actually when you need sunglasses the most, you know?

Hello, squirrel.

Wow. So agile.

That's when you need them the most because the sky is white not blue and so they're more reflective.

Meteorology expert Taylor reporting for duty.

But anyways, I had to leave my house with these kind of catty ones that I have.

They're fun but I feel like I'm cosplaying Mean Girl.

You know what I mean?

I should show you.

This townhouse in East Village is the one that Led Zeppelin used on the cover of that one album, you know?

There it is right there.

Fun fact!

Alright.

I would love to try one of these, because you guys are known for the cloud thing, right?

Thank you.

Oh my god, smells good.

Okay, this is their Cloud Cappuccino.

I think it's just like a ton of sweet cream, cold foam on top.

You know what this reminds me of?

Is from the Simpsons movie, when Flanders makes that insanely intricate coffee or hot chocolate drink.

That is literally what this looks like.

I just need a little flame thrower to toast the top.

Anyway, cute dog.

Looks like mine.

All right, moment of truth real quick before we chat.

I have never had this before.

I mean, okay, I'm not gonna lie, there's a little tongue mark already.

I mean, yeah, can't not be good.

Let's see the coffee.

I should've got a straw, what an idiot I am.

Should I use my finger, is that gross?

All right, we're past the crazy stuff.

It's good.

I mean, at the end of the day they're charging 8 .50

because you can call it like a cloud latte and put sweet cold foam on there.

It was delightful, don't get me wrong, but I just wanted to try it.

Okay, so this is Elizabeth Street Garden.

I brought you guys here before in my What I Spend In week actually.

And I remember saying it's like cemetery vibes, which I stand by that, it is, but like good cemetery vibes.

People sitting in different pockets, reading.

I see a lot of people just come here to read, which I've done many times and we're gonna do today too.

But this is a really beautiful area.

We're in Nolita, which means north of Little Italy, part of Manhattan.

I've checked on Street Easy, but I want to see what these apartments that kind of look down over the garden are like on the inside.

Okay, gonna go join the populace in the more crowded area over there.

Read my book in a second.

But first, wanted to tell you guys something.

I'm reading this, which is called Show Your Work by Austin Kleon.

I haven't finished it yet, but I know what this book is about.

And I'm I just had a couple reflections around it.

It's about basically putting your work out there or sharing some part of yourself or your creativity, etc. in some small way every single day and to be practicing it.

Because odds are others, you know, some people will resonate with it, but it has to be findable.

So anyways, I had a moment yesterday where that principle of this book really resonated with me.

It was a small thing, but my life now, it really obviously revolves around YouTube and that's what I geek out on.

So all of the little features that come out on YouTube, or the analytics that I'm constantly analyzing on my videos.

That's my passion, that's what interests me, and is also just applicable to my life in a way that, I mean, I'm constantly comparing these things, but it's what I know.

And the way that consulting was not that for me, because it was much more theoretical.

It wasn't, you know, the work I was doing for clients.

It wasn't for my own business.

And so I always say without having my own skin in the game or without having a horse in the race,

so to speak, I just couldn't bring myself to care nearly as much as I care about my own business, obviously.

Anyways, point being, I put on my Instagram story yesterday, me rambling a little bit about something that I found really interesting.

I'll give you the TLDR.

Basically, YouTube recently rolled out the feature for creators to be able to A /B test their thumbnails, which means you can upload up to three different thumbnails

and YouTube will then track which one performs the best and automatically set it to the one that performs best.

And I thought it was interesting that the metric

that YouTube tracks to determine which one is best is not click through rate.

Click through rate is is the percentage of people that click on a thumbnail when it's presented to them.

The metric that they track according to the back end in the YouTube studio is watch time.

So how many minutes of your video did that person watch?

Which to me is a little bit counterintuitive.

Anyway, so I went on my story and just talked about this

and said that I can understand why YouTube would do it the way they do it.

But I personally as a creator would like to see the difference in click -through rate.

And when I have these slots, I typically don't share them because I think they're too niche or I don't know, like who cares?

Screw it, I'm gonna put it on my story.

see what people think.

The amount of replies I got on that ostensibly very, very niche thought I was having, or opinion about this thing,

got so many replies and from such a wide variety of people too.

None other than the expert himself, MKBHD, literally responded to it because he had the same thought

and so he dug into it and said that what YouTube does is actually, it's kind of a combination of the two, the click -through rate and the watch time.

Basically the way he put it is, if a video gets let's just keep numbers simple, 100 hours of watch time,

but 75 of those hours come from the group of people that clicked on this thumbnail versus that one.

That's how YouTube determines it.

So it's kind of a combination between click -through rate and average view duration.

Again, like getting into the nitty gritty, but just the fact that I got so many replies on that.

let alone from experts in the field.

I just thought that was really, really cool.

And so again, without having finished this, I already feel inspired to be putting out random thoughts into the world every day or like even in this video.

100

I'm already rambling because I'm sure it will resonate with someone.

101

All right now I'm gonna go join the masses.

102

Oh I should have said part of my effort to start sharing more like random thoughts

103

and etc. I am starting a newsletter and

104

so it's gonna be part of my email list which if you want to join the link is in the description.

105

A couple hours of pooter time which included scripting on my next video after this one.

106

Little hint it involves my apartment so I'm excited to release

107

that one and I think you guys are really gonna like it.

108

Caught up over the next couple months.

109

And of course, texted some friends.

110

I'm always multitasking.

111

Here's live footage of me receiving a really funny one.

112

Huge perk of my job, being able to do it from pretty much wherever.

113

I just sent out the invite to my birthday party, which I'm having soon.

114

And yeah, for reference, every single event that I host, I call it a moistening.

115

That's just my brand now.

116

But anyway, it's my 27th birthday soon.

117

My actual birthday is September 4th, but I'm having the party another time when more people are in town.

118

But I'm really proud of this theme.

119

I'm not gonna lie, it was one of my friends' ideas.

120

Well, I came up with this part, 'cause Taylor Swift obviously had her eras tour, but this Taylor, this one, my spin on the eras tour is life eras.

121

So to come dressed as one of your life eras, whether it was when you were an intern, a high schooler, or I added this little bit, future MILF DILF, you know, keep it spicy.

122

And I put this as my picture.

123

I think that's what I'm gonna do is the life era of Taylor, first day of freshman year in college.

124

All pen gear, wearing a freaking lanyard,

125

We'll see.

126

I laugh every time I walk by here.

127

This place called Rin Tin Tin.

128

It's like a popular drinks and like bite spot and Soho, Nolita area and

129

Like everyone me all my friends everyone I know calls it Rin Tin Tin

130

But then I'm a friend who insists on calling it Hon Ton Ton.

131

It really tickles me.

132

I don't know why.

133

Anyway, we're actually Keeping the wallet in the pocket more than I expected today, but let's go change that shall we?

134

the fast casual jewel of the Mediterranean.

135

Thank you.

136

Thank you.

137

Try it in true.

138

Also, she packed me so full.

139

I'm going to put the hood on that thing.

140

Music is blasting.

141

- But we're here for a reason.

142

Don't worry, this is not a shopping vlog, but...

143

We got so quiet.

144

I actually need new tops.

145

I literally just wear black t -shirts all the time and it's like, come on, up your game a little bit Taylor.

146

These aren't really shirts.

147

I got some shirts.

148

Either way, if I walk out of here with greater than or equal to one item, it's going to be expensive.

149

So, what I spent in a day.

150

Nice color scheme, Taylor.

151

Look, green.

152

Guys, what a success.

153

I'm gonna get a couple of these things.

154

Probably this green t -shirt.

155

Sue me.

156

And god, do I do it?

157

Do I do it?

158

I don't know.

159

And no, I'm not going to a funeral.

160

All right, with that purchase, which we will talk about in a minute, I got a free token to use the cafe upstairs.

161

Worth it?

162

Oh man, that hurt a little bit.

163

At the same time, I'm like, you know what?

164

I do that once a year.

165

Not that I've ever spent that much in a single shopping trip, but I went in there with an idea of what I wanted.

166

I don't do it very often.

167

I'm going to keep those pieces forever.

168

I don't know who I'm trying to justify it to besides myself.

169

And now I can donate quite a bit of stuff in my closet too.

170

So honestly, I got to say, great place for staples and just really classy looking I hurt a little bit, I'm not gonna lie.

171

Anyway, I'm gonna walk home for free, and then do something that's good for my health, I think.

172

Oh my god, I found another one.

173

If you didn't know, I have a deep, deep love for Cavalier King Charles Daniels.

174

I grew up with two amazing ones.

175

I have two other amazing ones now who, I get to see you soon because I'm flying home to LA in a couple days.

176

They're just the best dogs.

177

They really are.

178

By the way, your newsletter that you mentioned earlier.

179

Yeah, what about it?

180

Are you hosting that through Kajabi?

181

Yeah, I am.

182

Do you know about Kajabi?

183

Honestly, yeah at this point I do.

184

I'll tag team this one with you.

185

Thanks.

186

Yeah, I've been working with Kajabi for a long time.

187

It's honestly the most organic brand deal I could do because I use it literally every single day.

188

Nice.

189

190

Exactly.

191

192

Amazing.

193

Yeah, I'm actually building a lot of those things for myself slowly

194

but surely over time as I ease into the kind of full -time creator entrepreneur thing.

195

Ah, is that so?

196

Same here, actually.

197

Yeah, it's really exciting. For sure.

198

Also, incredible that Kajabi doesn't take a cut of your revenue.

199

200

It really is.

205

Now let's go.

206

Alright, Lord knows I don't need to buy any more books right now.

207

I have so many on my nightstand that I need to read, but this is cool.

208

I've never been in here before.

209

And a subscriber said hi to me as soon as I walked in, which is really sweet.

210

Hello, Adam, if you're watching this.

211

Cheapest way to get fruit.

212

My next purchase.

213

I'm just joking.

214

Those things look so weird.

215

They're actually massive.

216

If you've ever seen one in real life, they're huge.

217

I was gonna go to Barry's, which is like $30.

218

But I figured after dropping $621 on the Ritzia,

219

I might as well just use the ground on my own two feet, huh?

220

So this was my first time ever trying hot pot, which is where you order a broth that sits on a heat source right in front of you.

221

Hence the name hot pot.

222

Then you order different meats and veggies and noodles, whatever you want.

223

and cook it there right in front of you.

224

It was honestly really fun.

225

I went with my friend, Catherine, who's a huge fan of hot pot, and it was insanely delicious and just very flavorful.

226

I will for sure be back.

227

hello it is the next day added everything up came out

228

to just over $700 obviously I do not spend out every

229

day I just kind of knew it was gonna be a

230

little bit of a big one I thought it'd be fun to film

231

but hope you guys enjoyed I know this was a bit

232

of a silly one also wow what a pretty street I'm on huh like

233

FOR YOU

О данном уроке

В этом уроке вы потренируете практику разговорного английского, используя естественную речь из видео о повседневной жизни в Нью-Йорке. Вы узнаете, как разговаривать о повседневных покупках, описывать эмоции от новых впечатлений и делиться интересными фактами — все это в живом, непринужденном стиле. Упражнения помогут улучшить произношение английского и освоить интонацию разговорного языка.

Основной вокабуляр и фразы

To bop around — бродить, передвигаться по разным местам без конкретной цели. Например: "I spent the day bopping around the city."
Errands — дела, поручения (например, покупки, посещение банка). "I have some errands to run this afternoon."
Overcast — пасмурный (о небе). "It's an overcast day, so don't forget an umbrella."
Cosplaying — играть роль, имитировать персонажа. "She's cosplaying a movie star with those sunglasses."
Moment of truth — момент истины, проверка на прочность. "The moment of truth: will the coffee taste as good as it looks?"

Советы для практики

Этот видео идеально подходит для shadow speech (техники повторения за говорящим). Вот как тренироваться:

Сначала прослушайте фрагмент длиной 5–10 секунд, затем остановите и повторите его сразу, копируя интонацию и темп. Особое внимание уделите не только словам, но и паузам — они важны для естественной речи.
Говорите громко и четко, даже если вы не уверены. Это поможет улучшить произношение английского и чувство ритма. Если вы используете shadowing site, настройте скорость воспроизведения на 0,75x на первых этапах, а затем постепенно увеличивайте.
Обратите внимание на фразы типа "you know what I mean?" или "I mean" — они делают речь более живой. Попробуйте вставлять их в свои разговоры, чтобы звучать более естественно.

Регулярная практика (3–5 раз в неделю по 15 минут) приведет к заметному прогressу в разговорном английском. Начните сегодня — и скоро вы будете разговаривать так же свободно, как герои видео!

Грамматика в этом видео

Конструкции, которые говорящий использует чаще всего, с точными словами из видео:

Конструкция	В видео
Present Perfect have/has + причастие прошедшего времени — прошлое действие, важное сейчас	have never had · I've done · I've checked
Придаточные определительные who / which + предложение — уточнение о человеке или предмете	those who don · Nolita, which means · this, which is
Пассивный залог be + причастие прошедшего времени — важно, что происходит, а не кто это делает	are known · is called

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.
