Практика Shadowing: SUNDAY RESET VLOG ★ grocery shopping, errands, etc. - Изучайте разговорный английский по видео

Hi guys, it's Syd and welcome back.

I don't know if this means that I'm getting old, but Sunday has become my favorite day of the week.

This never used to be the case either until I started getting old.

Wow, so that's the case.

I am just getting old.

I love a good reset day what can i say i'm like a sucker for a pinterest aesthetic reset day

but even more than like the superficial side of it i do believe

that i find my week way better

when i have a really intentional reset sunday routine

and i've really tried to develop this as i've gotten older

and i feel like i have a pretty solid one now

so yeah i'm just basically taking you along with me today on sunday happy sunday everyone well it's sunday

when i'm filming this i don't know if it is

when you're watching but i am going to go to the store in a little bit

and get some stuff and essentials that i need

but first i think i should start my laundry

and sundays are the day that i like to wash my sheets

and bedding well no one ever likes doing

that i actually hate doing this one of my most important steps for a perfect sunday is to be comfy

so i usually just wear brandy type comfy clothes like this

outfit is from brandy comfy stretchy around the house loungewear

and i know what you're thinking i know what you're thinking this girl is pale

and i'm gonna fix that that's also part of my sunday routine

so just wait okay cover your eyes it will get better now for my favorite part

that everyone loves washing my sheets wow i don't even know

why i made my bed this always happens i always forget

that i'm going to be doing this and i just like subconsciously make my bed just to strip it all off

sheets acquired i love these sheets by the way i got

them from quince my friend like got me on this brand

laundry vlog you guys know i'm obsessed with my laundry room

for some weird reason i know the glamour of this will fade eventually

and I really don't know why I'm so obsessed with it maybe

because I just haven't had this before like communal laundry room

I just like think it's fun anyways I went down to the second floor

which is where our laundry is there's so many washers

and dryers and honestly my favorite part of it all is

that I can do multiple loads at once

which feels like such a luxury to me I've never had

that I threw in a couple different loads some of it was just clothing

and then the other part of it was my sheets.

So I'm in the laundry room.

I don't know if this is just me being naive

and just having moved here but I kind of love it in here.

I don't know.

This is probably gonna fade out quickly.

It definitely will actually.

It's just interesting.

I've never like had a communal laundry room before that I share with like everyone in my apartment.

It's usually really busy on Sundays which no one's in here right now.

Thank goodness I can vlog peacefully.

They're all pretty much taken.

I kind of have to just like walk through and find the empty ones.

I have two loads going at once, which is such a luxury to be able to do like two loads at the same time.

So while my laundry's going, I decided I'm going to go through my closet.

I like to do this at least once a month.

I feel like even if I just organize things, sometimes I get rid of a few things for donation.

I found like a really good donation service that that does pick up and it makes it so much easier.

I like to just go through, keep things organized so it doesn't turn into a nightmare.

And I think it's also really good to just see like what you have in your closet.

Sometimes I am organizing and just like moving stuff around

and I forget that I have like certain pieces and it reminds me to wear them more.

So I try to do this like once every month, once every two months.

It's not like an every single Sunday thing, but today we're going to be doing it.

Being indecisive makes cleaning out your closet very difficult.

If you are also indecisive, you know exactly what I'm talking about.

I can't decide.

Do I need this?

Do I not need this?

And then it's like 20 minutes later and I still haven't decided.

What I have decided to do is if I haven't worn something in six months, not once, that's the sign that I probably should donate it.

It kind of takes the emotion out of it.

I don't know why I struggle separating from clothes that I haven't worn in two years, but my mom told me that little hack.

Unless it's seasonal, that is like the one thing that I think differs with that rule, but it is a good rule of thumb and I definitely encourage you to use it if you're also indecisive like me.

Wow, these colors remind me of Curious George, doesn't it, a little?

Enough procrastinating, I'm gonna go through.

I do sort of dread cleaning my closet.

It's not something that's easy for me to romanticize, but I do have to do it frequently or else things just get out of control.

So this is me going through a few things

that just like needed to be hung up

that I threw around during the week

because I was lazy I ended up putting a couple things aside to donate as well

POV I'm in my closet this is a very close angle

I used to never be like this I don't know what has come over me

but I've been loving to like color coordinate my clothes Feels very extra

but it's very not even just satisfying but honestly helpful like

when I'm picking out outfits So right now things are not really coordinated.

So I'm going to go through, fix it.

During the week, I kind of just like throw stuff in sometimes.

So I need to like get this back in order.

Look how satisfying this is.

Okay.

To me, it's satisfying.

It's not perfect, but it's definitely a lot better.

And it is actually pretty practical.

Like I do find this being very helpful for me during the week.

The whites, the creams bleeds into the blues.

We got some red and then the darker brown, black, and my coats are all over here.

I just got a notification that my laundry finished.

So I'm gonna go move the stuff from the washer to the dryer

100

and then come back and resume some things in my room because I don't know if you see this over there, there is a bit of a mess that I just created.

101

All right, so the clothes are in the dryer now for another three minutes or so.

102

I finished most of my closet.

103

Nothing too crazy, but things are definitely a lot more organized now.

104

And I got rid of all of this stuff, so I have so much more space.

105

And this is all color-coordinated.

106

But I did end up spilling all of my jewelry on the floor.

107

And I kind of just left it here.

108

So I need to go through this

109

and I actually need to organize it anyways So i'm gonna sit down

110

and go through all of my jewelry some sundays

111

if i'm really feeling ambitious I like to pick a particular project

112

or something that i'll focus on organizing So this sunday ended up being my jewelry and not really by choice.

113

I kind of like dropped my whole container and I was like, you know what, this is the perfect time to go through it all.

114

You guys know I love jewelry.

115

This is not even half of it.

116

So my collection is extreme.

117

That will just never shrink, unfortunately.

118

But I do love jewelry.

119

So I thought it was time to just like organize some of the things that I had.

120

Okay, I fixed my jewelry.

121

It definitely took a little bit, but it's much more organized now.

122

I am going to put some sweats on because I'm going outside.

123

I have a couple errands that I want to run.

124

One of them is to the grocery store because I need some food for the week.

125

The other is I kind of want to go to like either Target

126

or Sephora and get like a couple things for the shower, like self-care stuff because I want to take an everything shower later.

127

So that's the plan.

128

My laundry is still going so I will, I'm going to deal with that when I get back.

129

Also I feel like it's fine to wear things

130

that look like pajamas on Sundays cut me some slack okay maybe not the slippers though

131

as I was walking to Target I saw this guy on an electric unicycle did you guys just see

132

that um what was that I don't know

133

but I kind of want it it's kind of iconic to me I ended up grabbing me a cart

134

and I decided to meal prep a bit for the week.

135

Something I don't honestly like to do.

136

So I picked up some stuff for that.

137

I also picked up some snacks.

138

The best crackers in the world including Drizzleicious which if you watched my recent vlog you guys know I'm obsessed with them.

139

I also looked at some self-care stuff and beauty stuff to see if I wanted to restock.

140

Oh and then at the end i did contemplate buying a halloween costume from here

141

because why would i not want to be a traffic cone

142

i don't know okay there's a lot of options pizza maybe

143

this i don't know like is this what i should be

144

for halloween i actually would be a traffic cone to be honest okay anyways this is getting weird

145

and then i went to pick up some flowers

146

because i love buying myself flowers it's so empowering

147

which sounds a little silly

148

but i truly like feel like it's such a physical act

149

of self-care like physically buying myself flowers just makes me so happy especially on a Sunday.

150

Anyways I got back and took the stuff out of the dryers because my clothes and sheets were ready.

151

Welcome to

152

my cooking segment.

153

This is a new addition now that I cook.

154

Let's not expect this to last very long.

155

I have found my new staple dinner.

156

Actually, I didn't find this my roommate Olivia introduced it to me and it's nothing revolutionary but it's so good.

157

I make it pretty much every other night and I will until I get sick of it.

158

It's really good, really healthy, and really easy.

159

Those are the three things that I care about the most and if I can make it, trust me, you guys can make it.

160

We know I've struggled in the kitchen many times on here.

161

I also posted this on my Instagram story and

162

so many of you guys were DMing me asking for the recipes so I knew I had to show you guys.

163

I got all of my groceries from Target.

164

I don't know why I do my grocery shopping at Target so often but they have a lot of good stuff.

165

So I will keep doing this and going back there.

166

So tonight we're making sweet potato chicken bowls.

167

I have the oven preheating.

168

I'm gonna chop up some veggies, but first I'm gonna put my flowers in the vase in our living room.

169

These are such beautiful fall flowers, I thought, and I really wanted to pick them up and surprise Olivia.

170

So if you haven't noticed, she's gone.

171

After I displayed my flowers, it was time for me to cook.

172

I started by cutting sweet potato in bite-sized pieces.

173

I also did this with zucchini.

174

I preheated my oven to 400 degrees, and I make sure to put my sweet potato in first before the zucchini.

175

I put oil on both of them, of course.

176

Oh, also don't forget to put cinnamon on your sweet potatoes.

177

Someone told me this, and it kind of changed everything for me.

178

At the same time, I'm also cooking some quinoa, And then i'm chopping up some cherry tomatoes.

179

These ones are kind of not good So I don't know why that was the case and some avocado.

180

I also chopped up as well And then I added everything to my bowl.

181

So I added the quinoa I'm doing two bowls because i'm sort of like meal prepping for the week.

182

Not really just one extra bowl I added in the chicken

183

and some tzatziki to complete the entire bowl along with my sweet potato and zucchini That's it.

184

It's pretty simple kind of hard to mess up unless you overcook it, which to be honest, I kind of did

185

my delicious dinner is finished you guys saw pretty much how i made it

186

but i love these bowls because they're so colorful i just feel

187

so good after eating something

188

so whole like this i've been trying to eat a lot more whole foods

189

and this is one of the best ways to do

190

that i'm very bad at cooking the chicken

191

so that's something i need to work on so i definitely overcooked the chicken Other than that, it's great.

192

I also love having an extra meal on hand for the week.

193

Like tomorrow, I'll definitely have that for lunch at some point.

194

It just makes things a lot easier.

195

It's like a mini meal prep sort of situation.

196

I'm gonna eat my dinner.

197

Usually I'd be eating this with my roommate, but she's gone.

198

I do love an everything shower.

199

So after dinner, I decided to take one.

200

You do everything.

201

Exfoliate, body wash, shave, wash your hair.

202

So these are a few of the products that I've been really liking recently.

203

So I showered and then after my shower, it was time to do the dreaded task of putting my fitted sheet on my bed.

204

Doing this alone is a bit of a challenge, but I do love sleeping in just freshly washed sheets that smell like laundry detergent.

205

It's kind of my favorite thing.

206

And then I also decided to, while I was at it, fold my clothes that I also had just cleaned.

207

I do like to clean at night, even not just Sundays, but any day of the week, because I hate waking up to a messy room.

208

There's truthfully like nothing worse than that.

209

And it kind of sets my day off on the wrong foot.

210

So not just on Sundays, but every night I do try to do this.

211

I'm sorry guys.

212

I forgot to do an outro again.

213

But I did just want to say thank you so much for watching.

214

I hope you guys had fun.

215

I love a good Sunday reset vlog and it's been kind of a while since I've done one.

216

Love you guys and I'll see you in my next vlog.

217

Bye guys!

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.
