ฝึกพูดภาษาอังกฤษด้วยเทคนิค Shadowing จากวิดีโอ: I Have To Teach My Insane Mom A Lesson

Hi, I'm Sasha from Los Angeles, and my mom is my best friend in the world.

But we weren't always so close.

In fact, we'd have the most epic fights every day.

But before I continue, please like and subscribe.

Mom grew up in Louisiana near the bayou, and she was always a little weird.

Her best friends were animals, and she had a thick southern accent, and she'd say the strangest things.

It's hotter than a goat's butt in a pepper patch.

But everyone was nice to her because she came from the wealthiest family in town.

She met my dad in high school.

They fell in love, got married, and had me.

But when I turned five, dad begged mom to move to California.

A couple of weeks after we moved into our new house, I started to notice mom acting strange.

Late at night, she'd march up and down the sidewalk, glare up at the windows, and sneak into dad's study.

One day, I asked mom all about it.

Oh, honey, that didn't happen.

It was just your imagination.

Nuh-uh, you did it every night this week.

Then mom gave me the strangest look.

That night, I heard mom and dad arguing, and a couple of days later, dad moved out.

After dad left, mom tried to make me happy, but she only made things worse.

On my 10th birthday, she threw me a huge party in our backyard with dozens of kids from school and their parents.

But when my mom opened her mouth, it was a disaster.

Well, butter my backside and call me a biscuit.

Excuse me, what?

I'm as happy as a tick on a dog.

All the kids laughed at my mom.

Even their parents thought she was a joke.

I got so mad, I sprayed them all with the water hose.

They ran away screaming.

But to my surprise, instead of thanking me, Mom grounded me for a week.

As the years passed, I started to notice that Mom was way too nice.

When I was in middle school, Mom inherited millions of dollars.

She donated a ton of it to several hospitals, and Mom's name was in all the newspapers.

Next day, strangers started coming to our house to ask her for money for their fake charities and stupid businesses.

We have to save the toothpicks.

Teeth are suffering all around the world.

Imagine a plate that could talk to you, then walk into the kitchen and clean itself.

Dinner would never be the same.

Mom just couldn't tell them no, but the moment they left, they'd call Mom an idiot and spend the money on expensive clothes and fancy cars.

Of course, I didn't let them get away with it.

I snuck into Mom's office and found all their addresses.

Then, I'd toilet paper their house, leave poop on their doorstep, slash their tires, and leave notes demanding that they give Mom her money back or Ralph.

It was exhausting protecting mom all the time, and I swear she never learned.

We'd argue for hours about her ridiculous habits, but she refused to change.

Dad was worried about mom too, so he started to come around more.

It felt really good having him back in my life.

He was the best dad in the world.

He took me to the movies, shopping sprees at the mall, and he even let me plan a special vacation to Las Vegas for the two of us

when mom was out of town.

I was so excited.

I used mom's credit card to book a fancy room at a luxury casino with the finest restaurants on the planet.

Nothing but the best for my daughter.

We'd just stepped into the airport when mom showed up and ruined everything.

She canceled the trip and dragged me back home.

A week later, I called dad to apologize for mom's behavior.

Your mom's crazy.

I can't stand her anymore.

Can we hang out this weekend?

Sorry, I'm busy.

Maybe another time.

I kept calling, trying to make plans with dad, but he always made up some excuse, and when he didn't call me for my 15th birthday, I was devastated.

Mom caught me crying in my room.

The next day, she told me someone special was here to see me.

I raced down the stairs.

I just knew it was dad, but instead it was a huge pig named Sam, and she said he'd be my new best friend.

Sam followed me around the house.

He ate my homework and pooped everywhere, but after a while, I learned to love him.

We took long walks in the neighborhood every day.

As you can imagine, everyone in town thought I was a crazy psycho, except for my neighbor Josh.

Wow, cool.

Is that a pig?

No, Sherlock.

He's a unicorn.

Can I pet him?

No. For weeks, every time Josh saw me walking Sam, he'd run up and try to talk to me.

One time, he even bought me an ice cream cone.

It's hot.

I was thinking that you'd want one.

I wasn't sure if you wanted a cone or a cup.

Oh no, it's melting.

Oh no, your fingers are all sticky.

I'm fine.

It's no big deal.

I'm so sorry.

That wasn't smart.

I can do better, I promise.

Hold on, I'll run and get you a cup.

Another time, Josh bought me a hat, a popsicle, a sandwich, a whole pizza, and a t-shirt with our faces on it.

Even though he was annoying and talked about the most random things, I started to enjoy his company and developed the tiniest crush.

I even let him pet Sam.

Can I really?

Sure, but be careful.

He's kinda shy.

Josh rubbed Sam's head.

Sam got mad and chased him into the bushes.

Josh scraped his knee and started crying like a baby.

Mom saw the whole thing and invited Josh inside.

And as usual, she embarrassed me.

Now aren't you as cute as a button?

100

No wonder Sasha's been the happiest clam at high tide.

101

Josh was totally confused.

102

Mom, I'm just being honest, honey.

103

You two go together like peas and carrots.

104

Stop acting like a bump on a log.

105

Ain't no secret that you got the hearts for that boy.

106

I was mortified.

107

I wanted to fold myself into an envelope and mail myself to Siberia.

108

Luckily, Mom finally left the room.

109

Then Josh started smiling like a demented clown.

110

Why are you looking at me like that?

111

I've got a crush on you too.

112

Soon, Josh and I started dating.

113

But when his parents found out, they weren't very happy.

114

It didn't help that my mom caught Josh's mom making fun of her at the grocery store.

115

That woman has no class.

116

Her clothes are a disaster and that daughter of hers is a menace.

117

Mom marched up to Josh's mom and started screaming like a maniac.

118

Hold your horses, honey.

119

If you keep talking about my daughter like that, I'm gonna slap you silly.

120

What's that you say?

121

I can't understand you.

122

Maybe you should learn some proper English.

123

Josh's mom shoved past mom and started laughing with her friends.

124

Mom grabbed a pie and smashed it in Josh's mom's face.

125

Josh's mom grabbed a candelope and threw it at mom's head.

126

Then the two of them started fighting like wrestlers in a cage match.

127

Josh tried to break it up, but accidentally got hit in the eye by someone's elbow.

128

Then, a couple of security guards showed up and dragged them out the door.

129

The police showed up and gave them both a warning.

130

That night, Josh sent me the worst text ever.

131

It said, Hi, I can't be your boyfriend anymore.

132

Sorry.

133

I called Josh a dozen times, but he didn't answer.

134

I went to his house, and his mother sent me away.

135

I was heartbroken.

136

Mom tried to comfort me, but it didn't help.

137

The truth was that my mom was ruining my life, and I started to really resent her.

138

I wanted her to change, but I knew she never would.

139

But things started looking up in the fall.

140

I was accepted to a fancy private school across town, and since no one knew me, it was the perfect time to reinvent myself I changed my hair,

141

bought new clothes and practiced being cool in the mirror.

142

When school started the most amazing thing happened.

143

The popular girls loved me.

144

I landed a spot on the cheerleading team and the cutest boy in school asked me out.

145

To my surprise I saw Josh in the hallway.

146

He was a new student like me.

147

He tried to say hello but I I totally ignored him.

148

I was way out of his league.

149

Life was perfect until Mom messed up everything.

150

I was hanging out with Lacey and the rest of the cheerleaders when Mom showed up at school to pick me up.

151

Look at that lady.

152

Is that a lizard on her shoulder?

153

No way!

154

Is she walking a pig?

155

They started laughing at Mom, and I wanted to fit in so I started laughing too.

156

I know, right?

157

She's so disgusting!

158

I felt bad about it at first, but I couldn't go back to being a freak.

159

I tried to steer my friends away, but Mom saw me and rushed over.

160

Aren't y'all precious?

161

Fine as a frog's hair split four ways.

162

It's so nice to finally meet your friends, Sasha.

163

Then the worst thing happened.

164

Sam squealed and then pooped on Lacey's shoes.

165

The entire ride home, I was raging mad.

166

I didn't talk to Mom for the rest of the night.

167

The next morning at school was the worst.

168

Lacey and the other kids couldn't stop talking about mom.

169

Who was that crazy woman and how did she know your name?

170

I lied and told her that mom was my maid and she was too poor and crazy to live by herself.

171

So she lived at my house and my real parents owned a successful multinational business

172

and they traveled to a new country every week on their private jet.

173

Too bad for you.

174

That really stinks.

175

I defired her a long time ago.

176

Yeah, I know.

177

It's hard, but I've learned to live with it.

178

Josh overheard me talking to Lacey and ambushed me at my locker 10 minutes later.

179

What's wrong with you, Sasha?

180

Why would you say those mean things about your mom?

181

Why do you care?

182

You broke up with me because of her.

183

It wasn't like that.

184

It's complicated.

185

Just like your stupid face.

186

My parents gave me an ultimatum.

187

They said that if I kept dating you, then they wouldn't pay my school tuition or give me an allowance or buy me a car.

188

Breaking up with you was the worst decision I ever made.

189

I regret it every day, but I didn't think I had a choice.

190

But now I know I was wrong.

191

I think we can make this work, but even if we can't get back together, maybe we could at least be friends?

192

I've got plenty of friends.

193

I'm really worried about you.

194

You shouldn't have to pretend to be someone you're not just to fit in with those jerks.

195

At least those jerks didn't drop me when things got inconvenient.

196

I stormed off.

197

I couldn't believe that Josh had the nerve to judge me.

198

As the days passed, I ignored mom and spent all my free time with my new friends.

199

Then I got a phone call from my dad.

200

He asked me to meet him after school.

201

Promise me you won't tell your mom.

202

You must realize by now that she's crazy.

203

I've been trying to contact you for years, but she refused to let me see you.

204

I met Dad at a cafe, and we talked for hours.

205

He told me about his fabulous new life as an artist, and how he traveled the world and made tons of money, but I never remembered seeing any of his paintings.

206

He even invited me to travel with him for the summer.

207

Then this strange man came in, and Dad got really nervous.

208

I love you, honey.

209

I have to go, but I promise, but I promise I'll make things up to you.

210

Dad gave me a big hug and he left with the man.

211

All of a sudden, I felt like I was five again, watching Dad leave.

212

A typhoon of tears rolled down my cheeks.

213

I was so angry that I'd missed out on having a dad for so many years because of Mom.

214

By the time I got home, it was really late and Mom was upset with me.

215

Honey, we need to talk.

216

You don't walk Sam anymore.

217

You hardly spend any time with me.

218

And every time I try to talk to you, you're madder than a wet hen and tougher than a two dollar steak.

219

What does that even mean?

220

You've been difficult and you used to be sweet as cherry pie.

221

What's going on?

222

It's you!

223

You're weird and strange and everyone thinks you're a freak!

224

You're embarrassing and you've been ruining my life since I was five!

225

Even Dad says you're crazy, and I know you've been keeping him away from me.

226

Mom looked at me like she'd seen a ghost.

227

What are you talking about?

228

Dad told me everything.

229

He even invited me to travel with him for the summer.

230

He's an artist now, and he's awesome.

231

Your father is lying like a dog on a rug.

232

I should have told you earlier, but your dad has some problems.

233

He's a thief and a con artist, and he owes a lot of money to some really bad men.

234

I didn't believe her.

235

I couldn't.

236

My dad was a good guy.

237

She was the crazy one.

238

I was so angry, I screamed.

239

I couldn't stand being in the same room with her for another second.

240

I turned and ran out the front door.

241

Then, the craziest thing happened.

242

This van rolled up, and the scary man from the cafe jumped out.

243

He grabbed me and tried to pull me into his car.

244

Mom and Sam appeared out of nowhere.

245

Let my daughter go, you low-down, dirty snake.

246

Mom yanked me out of the man's arms and pushed me to safety.

247

Mom and the man fought in the street.

248

Mom slipped, hit her head on the curb, and fell unconscious.

249

Sam bit the man on his butt and the man ran away screaming.

250

A couple of neighbors called the ambulance.

251

When we got to the hospital, they rushed Mom into emergency surgery.

252

The police told me that they'd caught the man trying to leave town.

253

He and my dad hatched a plan to kidnap me and hold me for ransom.

254

My dad even had an anonymous note on his computer

255

that he was going to send to Mom demanding two million dollars for my return.

256

The police arrested them both and threw them in jail.

257

I felt horrible.

258

I couldn't stop crying.

259

Then I turned to see Josh and he gave me the biggest hug.

260

This is all my fault.

261

Mom tried to tell me the truth about dad, but I didn't believe her.

262

You can't blame yourself, Sasha.

263

We all make mistakes.

264

I'm sure your mother knows that you love her.

265

What matters is you're here for her now.

266

Then the most unexpected thing happened.

267

Apparently, news of my mom's accident had spread and dozens of people showed up in the waiting room.

268

They told me stories about how mom mentored them and changed their lives.

269

Your mother is the smartest woman I know.

270

She invested in my business when no one else would.

271

She taught us to be ourselves.

272

Now, we've got the most popular album in the country.

273

I was amazed at how much of an impact Mom had on so many people.

274

I told you your mom was special.

275

Then the doctor came out and gave us the best news.

276

The surgery was a success.

277

Mom was released from the hospital a week later.

278

When she came home, I was so happy.

279

I hugged her as tight as I could.

280

Heavens to Betsy what's gotten into you.

281

I'm just happy you're okay.

282

I'm sorry about everything I said.

283

I love you so much.

284

I'm not ashamed of you, and I'm proud that you're my mother.

285

I know you love me in your own way.

286

Well, that just steals my pickle.

287

I'm as happy as a clam at high tide.

288

What does that mean?

289

He's not the sharpest tool in the shed.

290

The porch light's on, but no one's home.

291

Huh?

292

We're just kidding.

293

You're the smartest kid I know.

294

I pulled Josh close, and just as I was about to kiss him, Sam jumped between us and licked my face.
