Learn English With My Daily Routine (Natural Speaking Practice)

That was called a yawn. Good morning and welcome back to another day in my life. Today, I'm going to show you everything I do in a day. So first, I open my windows and make my bed. Guys, it's kind of crazy that I still don't have a bed stand. I don't have a bed stand or a bed frame. um yeah i think that's just the type of person i am i'm the type of person that's gonna buy a tv before i buy a bed stand or like or i even i decorated my terrace and i still haven't bought a bed stand i don't know i feel like it's not super necessary like if i had to spend my money on something, I wouldn't spend it on a bed frame first. I would spend it on decorating my terrace or making my living room feel cozy or buying a kitchen table. What do you think? Tell me. So guys, I realized I never gave you a house tour. So I'll do that eventually like a full house tour but you guys will see it anyway so as you guys can tell i did already take a shower only because my hair was really greasy it just it looked bad it looked gross so i took a shower before making the intro to this video i lied i didn't just wake up i know sorry guys it's fake it's all fake okay let me show you guys a little bit of my morning routine I washed my hair I washed my body and now well I also already washed my face right yeah I did I'll wash my face so now I'm just gonna brush my teeth I put toothpaste on my toothbrush I get it a little bit wet I'm gonna brush my teeth okay now I put some lotion on and of course sunscreen protect your skin guys so guys one thing that everybody asks me is my skin routine my skincare routine and like I sometimes use a filter like a filter in my videos so I can't always say oh my skin is perfect like my skin looks like this this doesn't have a filter but sometimes when i have really bad acne i'll put a filter on my face just because you know it makes me feel better but it's it's not real and i want you guys to know that this is what helps me a lot so what is this i don't even know what this is called but let me see this actually has a better name so if you look something like this up this really helps because it has um i forget what it has it has some ingredient that's really good for your skin i'll have to look this up and then tell you guys i'll look it up remind me not to but with this it's very intense so i just put a tiny tiny little dot and i put it on every night when i have acne Only when I have acne, otherwise it dries my face, it dries my skin and I get red bumps, like red bumps because my skin is dry because of this. So I only put this on the imperfection basically. All right, maybe I'll comb my hair. I like to put this in my hair to make it look really smooth and shiny and healthy. You just spray a little bit and then you comb it out. So I spray, I comb it into my hair. There we go. Hair equals combed. Be sure to put hair equals combed notch. That's a cute edit. All right. I grab my water bottle, put on my slippers and we open the door. So I'm not gonna spoil the house tour. This is all you get. I mean, it's a lot. It's my new office and my new filming set where I record my videos for you guys. But you'll see more in the house tour. I'll make that soon. I promise. Let's walk downstairs. All right. Here we are, guys. Good morning. The day is just starting. I haven't recorded many videos for future vlogs lately because I've just been really sick. I've been really busy and really sick. I don't know what it is. Maybe like some strain of COVID, I think. But yeah, I've had like a cough and boogers for like two weeks now. But finally, it's getting better. So now I decided it's time to record some new content for you guys to learn English with. You guys love these learn English vlogs. I know it. So I just wanted to show you a little bit of what I do in a day. The places I go, the things I eat. Let's make some breakfast. Well, the thing is, I usually don't make myself breakfast in the morning, like right away. I usually wait and I just eat lunch, but I do feel a little hungry. So I might just have a smoothie. You guys know I love my smoothies. And also lately, I haven't been drinking coffee in the mornings. I've been drinking tea. I know all of my Chinese viewers and I don't know where else in the world they love drinking tea, but my Chinese viewers are always commenting like, drink tea drink tea don't drink coffee drink tea so my chinese viewers are going to be very happy with this this decision um yeah so let's let's make some tea i also wanted to mention like i've been working on a lot of video ideas one thing that i want you guys to know is that i feel really awkward and weird recording in public and it's hard for me you know it's hard for me to go into like a coffee shop or a restaurant or at the beach and just like film myself like it's really hard and I know you guys love my videos like that like I can see that you clearly enjoy them much more than my normal house videos but I just feel so awkward and like oh I don't know it's it's really hard for me to record myself doing that so yeah um yeah let's let's eat let's make breakfast so i have a little bit of some leftover juice just like a tiny bit it stains my mouth let's make some tea so i already have a kettle this is my new kettle put the little sparkly sound kettle um i literally just click this button here and it's going to boil my water for me in less than five ten minutes max um yeah i'm excited to eat today because my friend olivia made me some curry so i'm gonna be eating that today with her which i'm very excited about guys i also bought this yesterday it means smoked oysters i'm excited also guys i went to the grocery store yesterday to it was like a japanese market and like these are my new favorite chips they're so good these are so good let me show you guys one if you ever see these at like an asian market i'm pretty sure these are i don't know i think they're like korean or japanese i don't know where they're from but they're great crazy look at this look at those layers they're literally the perfect chip like they're so good i won't eat one right now because like they're so addicting when you eat one you can't stop you can't stop um yeah i think i'm just gonna have juice and tea because my friend's gonna bring me curry her chinese curry and um yeah i mean i don't i don't need to eat that much so i have another juice here it's basically just water agua says water um grapefruit lime agave and cayenne pepper i think that's cayenne pepper i open the bottle with this one you have to twist twist hard to open the lid this is the lid and i had to twist it open to open that's good it's sour because of the grapefruit sour sour really good so today what's on the itinerary first let's let's pour some of this tea so we're using this broken cup because like i said i'm gonna buy a couch and a rug and a tv before i buy a bed stand or good cups you know i have like three good cups so that's it do you buy just things that you don't really need before buying the things that you need because the things that you need are boring things that you don't need that you want it's like yes i want that that makes me excited let's go upstairs all right i'll show you guys what is on the itinerary oh this cup it's getting very hot because it doesn't have a handle so guys here we are so today you guys are gonna come with me actually don't know it might be a lazy day um but i'll probably end up going to the gym well no okay first i'm gonna work a little bit i'm gonna record a video and probably eat with my friend because she's bringing me curry maybe take chinese class and then i'll go to the gym and then i'll make some dinner and and i'll show you guys what i eat so yeah that'll be fun so today i feel like it's a kind of day so guys if you didn't know i really like journaling so i always like to write in my journal at least at least once a week because i feel like it's nice to to first just to write things down so you remember them in the future you can like read back to your journal and like see everything that you were doing at that moment or thinking at that moment so what i like to do here um some days when i'm feeling more like reflecting i um so i save these these journal prompts that i sometimes see on pinterest so for example like journal journal prompts like how do you want to be described or create a list of compliments you've received. So I just saw these on Pinterest the other day. I was just scrolling and I saw this one. How do you want to be described? And I really liked it because it really is something that will make you think, right? Like, how do I want to be described? How do I want someone to talk about me? So yeah, I'll just, I write that down in my journal. And yeah, I take some time and I read it. So, for example, I would like to be described as, probably as, like, contagious. Do you guys know what contagious means? Contagious. Contagious, as in, not in a bad way, like I'm sick. Contagious means that you kind of spread something around. So if you're sick and it's contagious, if you're near someone else, then they're also going to get sick. But I want to be described, like, contagious in a good way. So, like, her positivity is contagious. So I want others to kind of maybe be inspired in a way, but also just to feel happy, to feel joyful, to feel inspired. I want that positive energy inside of me to kind of seep into another person's world into all the people that are around me into all the people that watch me into all of their worlds all of your guys's worlds so yeah contagious like um i would say her light is contagious i'd also like people to describe me as inspirational that'd be really nice i would i mean if somebody were to describe me as inspirational that'd be so sweet maybe i'll do one more um maybe I would say like resilient I think that would be a huge compliment resilient so what is resilient guys you know resilience is when you're strong enough to overcome challenges be resilient yeah it's like if you're going through a hard time you're having a hard day no matter what you're going through you're always able to push through but for me resilience isn't only just being able to push through the hard moments but it's being able to do your best even in the hardest moments to be your happiest or to stay positive even through the worst times because it's easy to be happy and strong when everything around you is amazing and when there so many people who love you and everything is going great but it's hard to be resilient when things aren't going great when you're not feeling good when the people around you aren't aren't good people to be around they're not making you feel good they're not you know maybe even they're bringing you down they're pushing that inspiration that you have inside down and resilience is to be able to get what you want and reach the goal that you that the dream that you have despite being in an environment that is pushing you down this is a little bit of a different thing i'm adding to the video but you know my goal is always to teach you guys english while also trying to spread my mindset to yours um just because i know a lot of people are going through hard times all the time and it's always good to just you know apart from learning why not feel good while you're learning why not recognize the beautiful qualities in yourself while learning new English words so how would you like to be described I want you to tell me this in the comments I think that's the only thing you don't need to say anything else about anything in the comments just tell me how you would describe yourself actually not just that there's another prompt I want you guys to do these two prompts I want to see in the comments. So the second one is create a list of compliments you've received. So I think this is a really great way to start your day. Like I can't even think of a better way to start your day. Like it's just the best because then you start your day with just thinking about all these beautiful things that people have told you. So you're already going into the day knowing who you are, knowing how amazing you are, and kind of following in those footsteps that got you those compliments in the first place. It's like you're affirming to yourself that you are that from the beginning of the day, and the rest of your day is going to be amazing because of it. So let's think. A list of compliments you have received. So what is a compliment. A compliment is an alago. It's something that somebody else says to you that you're doing that's good. For example, your shirt is beautiful. That's more about your style. Your hair is so soft. That compliment is more about my look, my appearance, my looks. I don't say look, my appearance. But there can also be compliments about your personality. Your positivity is contagious. That's a compliment. Your laughter is contagious. Actually, I think that's probably one of my favorite compliments somebody's ever said. Your laugh is contagious. I love that compliment because it makes me feel like, I don't know, it makes me feel happy that my laugh can make other people feel happy um another compliment that I received you're a great teacher that one it's a huge compliment I love that compliment it makes me feel like it's all worth it it makes me feel like I'm working towards the right goals and it makes me feel proud of all the work that I've put in to some of my videos to some of my projects when people tell me that I'm a great teacher that makes me feel so happy when it's genuine you know um you are genuine I think that just reminded me I love that compliment somebody told me before that I'm a very genuine person you're a very genuine person so guys what is genuine genuine is that you're real maybe that you're like authentic in a way but it's more like you're just you're not faking anything you're not putting on a mask you're just being real you're being genuine and I love that compliment because it makes me feel like yeah like I am not scared anymore to be my full self around others around you guys um and I feel like it's a huge compliment because it's hard to be genuine too sometimes it's hard to be your full self because you're scared of being judged you're scared of not being liked it's very scary to not be liked I think so yeah I think when people say that I'm genuine I like that compliment it makes me feel good let me know if you guys liked this this little this little activity I did here because this could be a whole video really of me teaching you guys new words of us um starting off the day in a beautiful and positive way complimenting each other complimenting ourselves noticing the things inside of us that make us special this would be a really cool idea for a full video to make for you guys um i don't know what this would be called but maybe learning english with journaling prompts if you want more videos like this be sure to tell me in the comments and i'll be sure to make some for you guys in the future because i love this so yeah this is part of my day that's why i'm adding this but that's it just wanted to show you guys all right um i will see you guys at lunch time to eat so it's lunch time and olivia brought me some curry curry chicken with rice and eggs what does this have curry chicken onion rice and eggs I'll let you guys know what it tastes like and I'll see you in a little bit all right food review food review that's really good yummy good job Olivia good job oh my god and it's chicken it's really good so good and healthy it feels so healthy it has eggs too i bought it two eggs guys look potatoes eggs and chicken and onion and onion wow i think after this we should get dessert i'm buying do you guys know what that means i'm buying i'm buying means i'm buying.

Honestly the best Chinese teacher I've ever had but she's pretty expensive so like she's also the most expensive Chinese teacher I've had. We gossiped for a little bit while we ate some chicken curry. Amazing chicken curry by the way and yeah I'll see you guys later we got some juice this is orange juice I also have a hat on I realized recently that hats are like I have a small head but you know people say people have big hat it's more smart okay thanks for comforting me now you're gonna say something about small heads being good or something but because hats I always try them on and like they're always so big on me like this one's falling down Big head I mean does it anyways we got some juices we're going back home, and then we're getting dinner later tonight Mm-hmm, and that's it.

There was like this much left, I used the rest of it. You say we use the rest of something when we use the entire amount left over. So even if that's like this whole bottle that's full, if I use all of this, then I use the rest of it. And with this one, it's just a little bit left, but if I use this, I use the rest of it. Okay, we're going to make, oh, we're going to add some creatine. Creatine is good to recuperate, for your muscles to recuperate. And then we're going to use some protein powder. Oh yeah, oh yeah.
