Welcome to Pillow Talk.
2
This is my room and this is where we're going to have the most intimate conversations.
3
So you guys sent me a lot of questions, I think over 4,000.
4
The topics for this video,
5
online privacy, dealing with boredom,
6
and insecurities in the digital age.
7
In this digital age, it's very common for young ladies,
8
including myself, to look on social media and see images of other young ladies with the perfect body and the perfect life life.
9
How can we stop ourselves from comparing us to them?
10
Thanks.
11
Two hearts.
12
I've noticed on Instagram pictures of beautiful women everywhere.
13
I think that's exciting because I love beauty.
14
I appreciate beauty.
15
I'm a person who loves looking at beautiful things and I love creating beautiful things and sharing beautiful things.
16
However, of course, I have those moments when I feel weak.
17
It's a lot.
18
It's a lot of thoughts are coming into my head and I'm trying my best to articulate this.
19
It's human nature to compare yourself to other people because we are very adaptive and receptive.
20
It's totally normal to feel insecure.
21
It's totally normal to feel, I guess, jealous.
22
But you do have a choice with what you want to see.
23
You don't necessarily have to see these beautiful pictures of all these girls looking at their perfect portrayed life.
24
Instead, perhaps you can start following photographers or painters, artists, musicians.
25
There are so many other things you can follow online.
26
Doesn't necessarily have to be a supermodel or a celebrity that has this perfect life.
27
That's what they want to show you.
28
The power of social media is that you become your own storyteller.
29
You get to have access to all these apps and filters,
30
skin filters where you have that perfect airbrush phase.
31
You can even give yourself that size zero waste with a touch of a button.
32
I'm not even kidding.
33
I've seen these apps.
34
Huge believer in not doing that because that really does distort how you perceive yourself and very unhealthy.
35
Don't give yourself such a hard time because you can do this too.
36
You can portray your best version of yourself and your perfect life.
37
However, is that all you want to show online?
38
I'd much rather be valued than wanted.
39
Does that make sense?
40
Because as you grow older,
41
you realize that looks fade,
42
but what remains the same is your soul and your wisdom best of luck to you dreamer
43
Do you think parents should prohibit their children to use phones computers and stuff like this until they become older?
44
Everything in moderation if you're gonna give your child a phone
45
or an iPad I would prohibit them having access to the internet give them tools
46
that they can use to create games for them to really invigorate their minds.
47
If you're gonna give them access to the world,
48
that's tough because it's so easy to find,
49
you know, porn on Instagram or on Twitter.
50
A lot of the times these social media platforms,
51
they're big, they're massive, but they can't censor everything because everyone's uploading around the same time.
52
It's really hard.
53
You know, when you're a child you're you're absorbing everything.
54
You're a sponge and if they have access to seeing all this vulgarity and that's going to imprint something on their mind.
55
I mean, honestly, people around the world still to this day,
56
they live perfectly fine without the computer and internet.
57
So it's really up to you and your choice as a parent.
58
Then again, I'm not a parent,
59
so sometimes I feel like I'm a kid.
60
With all those movies that I watch when they hit the big screen,
61
some scare me and want me to keep changing myself like the movie Duff.
62
How do you know or how do you feel when someone
63
or a group of people is trying to use you and make you feel bad by putting you in a label?
64
But first off, if someone is using you and they're your friend,
65
they're not your friend.
66
I'd much rather have one amazing best friend than for me to have a hundred friends
67
that probably don't even care about me.
68
So sometimes I feel like people,
69
they force themselves into a friendship because they don't want to be alone.
70
You know, you don't have time for this.
71
I'm sorry.
72
Life is too short.
73
So you're going to a school where everyone is trying to figure themselves out.
74
How can you really make quality, quality friends? friendship takes a lot of work.
75
It's like a real relationship,
76
a relationship that you would have with a boyfriend or girlfriend If there's no sacrifices in a friendship,
77
that's tough And if that other person is not reciprocating back to you,
78
you know, this friendship becomes a one-way street That's not friendship.
79
Focus on yourself, focus on your giftings and develop that because
80
that will take you places Not someone that's gonna bring you down.
81
Boom What are your feelings about retouching in magazines and on social media by the way,
82
I love you.
83
I love you too.
84
Okay This is my honest opinion.
85
I really don't care when I see a beautiful picture of someone.
86
I'm not going to dissect it
87
There's no point because I see it as art if someone wants to show their best version of themselves online
88
Why not come on?
89
Let's be real.
90
When you're doing your makeup and you're curling your hair,
91
that's not what you really look like.
92
Did you really wake up like that?
93
I mean, you have youth and beauty for so long.
94
Just enjoy it.
95
If you've got to throw a filter on it, do it.
96
I moved to France for college,
97
and I'm away from my family and friends.
98
I have my own apartment now,
99
but sometimes it gets kind of lonely, and I get bored.
100
What would you recommend to do when I'm alone and bored at my apartment?
101
Thank you, and I love you.
102
I love you too.
103
And you're not alone.
104
A lot of people are away from their family and friends,
105
and they're in college or they're moving someplace else outside the country.
106
And we can all sympathize.
107
I was there once too when I was in college.
108
And even when I moved out to LA by myself.
109
When I was going through this,
110
this is when I started my YouTube channel.
111
Boredom inspired new ideas.
112
It brought me to a webcam.
113
Moments when you're alone, they're good things because they can inspire new ideas and thoughts.
114
It's nice because someday if you do start a family,
115
it's going to be tough to find those alone times.
116
And I hear this from a lot of my friends who are moms.
117
They have no alone time.
118
The only alone time they have is in the shower.
119
This is the moment, honestly,
120
in my opinion, where you can really develop and become the person you will be in the future.
121
It's a lot of questions.
122
Let's see.
123
How do you handle nervousness about your relationships online?
124
How do you keep them safe and strong?
125
Well, what I like to do is I like to send pictures.
126
I'll designate a day where it's like a wacky Wednesday
127
or a Freaky Friday where we have to send each other funny things,
128
not freaky pictures, like funny things,
129
things that might freak us out.
130
You have to have consistency when you have relationships online because we're so connected to other things,
131
we tend to forget to connect with the people who matter most.
132
To help maintain these, you have to keep constant communication.
133
That doesn't mean you have to constantly text them all the time or,
134
you know, have them on standby.
135
No, that's not what I mean.
136
Sending them a funny picture,
137
sharing articles that you read or liking their picture, making a funny comment.
138
I mean, these are things that you can,
139
they can really add a lot.
140
I mean, it's a new form of communication.
141
Is it communication that I believe we should always do?
142
No, not necessarily because I do believe in the power of FaceTime and having that one-on-one relationship time,
143
that quality time with that person.
144
There's nothing more important than family, friends, and your relationship.
145
So that's my recommendation.
146
Best of luck.
147
How do you deal with fake people?
148
I've learned that in life,
149
you can't deal with fake people.
150
Just gotta cut them out.
151
Ignore them.
152
I know it's tough, but it's part of tough love, you know?
153
You're born, some people talk crap,
154
some people say good things about you, and you die.
155
Are you gonna live your life trying to make the people who are talking crap happy?
156
Are you gonna focus more on the people who love you who will nurture you and who will better your life?
157
All right, everyone.
158
So that was my first episode of pillow talk.
159
Let me know if you like this thumbs up or thumbs down
160
if you're digging this the idea of pillow talk is for me to have this one-on-one with you guys
161
and to have that intimate talk because oftentimes
162
Right before I sleep I'm online for at least an hour
163
replying back to my tweets to you guys on Instagram replying to YouTube comments and Facebook comments.
164
I call it pillow talk because I'm laying down,
165
I'm in bed, I'm super comfy.
166
This is really my time to have that intimate one-on-one dialogue with you
167
and so I decided to turn it into a video format.
168
If you have any questions that you would like for me to answer,
169
just hashtag pillow talk and I will find your hashtag hopefully and feature them on my videos.
170
So let me know what you guys think.
171
I love you so much dreamers.
172
Best of luck with everything and of course, good luck.
173
I don't know what I'm doing.
174
Bye.

练习技巧
为了有效提升您的英语口语能力，建议您在观看此类视频时采用 shadowing 方法。选择视频中的1-2个片段，尽量跟随说话者的节奏与语调进行模仿。当您模仿时，注意说话者的语速可能略快，因此可以先降低播放速度，帮助您更好地捕捉每个单词和表达。随着熟练度的提高，再逐渐恢复到正常速度。
此外，结合使用 shadow speak 技巧，您可以分段进行练习，比如每次只练习一句话。在练习的过程中，添加自己的理解和情感，以增加表达的自然感。同时，给自己录音并与原视频进行对比，有助于发现发音上的不足和改进之处。这种 看YouTube学英语 的方式，能够让您在不同场景中应用英语，并增强您的语言技能。
什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
