draw as a hobby i want to learn to sketch human faces but I don't know how to start it is good to hear that you want to learn something new in life a big congrats on that though as far as I know all you need to do is put your heart and soul into sketching or drawing you really need concentration and passion for the work you do this is the basic and first step of learning art that's right what do I need to prepare you should prepare pencils and some materials you need a good artist
needs a good product is my personal experience how should I start you can first start with the face of the person you really like even your mom trust me faces that are stored in your heart come out so beautifully on paper analyze people's emotions and try to get them on paper this will start giving you the confidence you require if you're really interested in going professional there are many workshops you can refer to my family doesn't like me drawing is my hobby a waste of time art is never a waste of time you have a
gift that many people wish they had cultivate it and work at making it your vocation there are artists out there who make a good living through their talent art is skill and skills are not a waste how do I change my drawing hobby into a career i think you should turn your hobby into a passion and do the hard work there are a few examples on YouTube where you can get the motivation to work hard in your field thank you very much for your advice i will research it and work hard to achieve my dream
[Music] pets i really want to adopt a dog what do you think really owning a dog means you have to be responsible for it have you thought about it carefully yes i've been thinking about this for a while now if you're sure about your decision just do it do you have any advice for me you will not regret having a dog oh why this is my dog Rambo he was a rescue pup that I took in almost 10 years ago this dog is very cute you must really love him yes the love and companionship he
brings into my life no human or any other animal can ever replace it i hear people say that dogs are loyal and faithful more than any other creature on earth that's true they offer you protection with all of their life and would sacrifice themselves for you let me tell you a story of mine sure what is it i live in a dangerous neighborhood and on multiple occasions Rambo has saved me one time a man tried to break into my house in the middle of the night omg what happened rambo woke up from my side of
the bed and was furious instinctively he ran downstairs and chased the man off did Rambo bite the man he didn't bite him he just scared him off and what surprised me was he refused to go upstairs for the next three nights he stayed by the door to guard the house he's so smart you are so lucky to have such a dog that's right i always feel safe around him what a touching story i can't wait to have a dog of my own thank you for your story [Music] party do you like going to parties not
really i don't like parties of any kind oh I didn't know that but why don't you think they're fun this is mostly because I don't like socializing or crowds i like quiet spaces how about you yes I love all kinds of parties that's the reason why I've gone to every one of my school's dances since freshman year why do you like them so much because they are a lot of fun and a great opportunity to mingle with groups of friends i don't really like going to parties but I'm afraid if I don't go I'll be
seen as unfit oh you shouldn't make yourself go to a party that you won't like people are too concerned about being accepted i understand but what can I do first you can create your own mini party with people who make you feel good about you being you life is too short to lie to yourself that is a great idea but if you have to go try to drink a little alcohol cuz I'm tense about this yes try to find a good snack at the party to eat you can find the group conversation that seems the
most lively and join in even if you don't know anyone don't take things too seriously it's a party not an interview you are right i should relax more hang out with friends [Music] do you like hanging out with friends yes most of the time how come because you have a good time you can discuss things and get some advice from your friends like us hanging out today right yes right i guess there isn't a single person who doesn't like to hang out with friends do you often hang out with your friends yes i see my
friends twice a week how about you i only meet up with my friends once a week because we're so busy what do you usually do when you go out with your friends me and my friends usually talk together sometimes we play sports or video games together hey Owen why do you think people should have friends why do you ask that i have a younger brother and he always stays at home and doesn't like to go out he told me he doesn't want to have friends i'm a bit worried about that i think friends can help
each other and cheer each other up or congratulate each other on their achievements in life you can talk and find out why your brother thinks like that and you can take him out with us when we hang out let your brother gradually open up you're right let me try to find out what happened everyone has their own hobbies maybe it's because he's an introvert maybe I will talk with him street food hi how are you doing i'm doing fine how about you just the usual did you just get back from Thailand yes I just came
back yesterday i'm planning to travel there how is street food in Thailand it has been a great experience when I first arrived I remembered the advice a Vietnamese friend gave me in Canada she said I should go slowly to get used to the change in foods but I decided to ignore that and just jump right in eating all kinds of different foods every day wow did you have stomach pain no I'm fine everything was delicious and interesting sounds good do you like Thai food yes the thing I love is the sheer variety of foods also
here they have foods I've never seen offered in Canada really what food is that such as various deep fried insects and larvae tiny frogs or small crunchy shrimp biscuits omg are those foods edible yes you can eat them did you try them out yet i've already tried them the taste is so so but you know it is fascinating to try things yes it must be if I were you I wouldn't dare try them take [Music] photographs hi Linda what's going on hi Janet i called to tell you something what is it my cousin just came
to visit me this morning i forgot we had an appointment today do you mind if I bring him too my cousin is very cute and gentle h it's okay i don't mind okay see you at 10:00 a.m okay bye hi Janet this is my cousin Bob hi Bob my name is Janet i'm your sister's best friend nice to meet you hi Janet nice to meet you how old are you i'm 16 years old i'm 20 years old do you have any hobbies i love to take pictures really why because I want to keep beautiful images
of what I see and memories in the photo you seem to be an emotional person you're right i'm kind of a sensitive person so how often do you take pictures not very often my school study is quite busy but when I have time I will go to the park or different places to take pictures his school has an outdoor activity where the teacher provides the camera bob liked it very much he talks about it all the time yes but the time of the activity is quite short i wish I had more time for it what
do you use to take pictures i take pictures with my phone my dream is someday I can have my own camera oh you can save money to buy it yes I think so too hope you can make your dream come true soon thank you don't forget to help me take some pictures then sure no problem [Music] video [Music] games oh no my son plays games all the time i tried to talk to him but he didn't listen i threw away his video games and banned him from playing my son was very angry and didn't talk
to me till now teenagers are usually like that does your boy like video games yes that is his hobby he loves playing games he even told me he will become a gamer in the future will you allow him to do that why not but with one condition what is it he has to finish his schoolwork and housework and he can only play the game for about an hour a day is that okay yes his school grades are pretty good in this way he can both complete his studies at school and also do the things he
likes it is a good way i think if you ground your son too much he will become very rebellious and when that happens it's even harder to deal with you are right he is getting more and more difficult you can help him balance study and play so everyone is happy i will try it thank [Music] you don't forget to practice your English every day to improve your English level watch the video for one week try to think and speak in English every time listen and repeat the lesson out loud to improve your listening and speaking
