Holy moly, Volker, what's up here?
Welcome, guys.
Today we are going to be learning beginner English as we unbox all of our Amazon packages to keep the box sealed, surrounded by packages.
And the blade is stainless steel.
Christmas morning.
You guys could see, here we have a pile of.
This video is part of my 3000 most common English word series designed to help you understand.
Understand up to 95% of spoken English.
Start the word count and let's go.
Okay guys.
So right now, my mom and I are sitting on the couch.
You can say couch or sofa.
And I have a brown paper package and my mom has a box.
And what does this box have right here, mom?
What is this?
This is tape.
This is tape, correct.
So this is orange tape.
It's orange packing tape to keep the box sealed.
So to keep it from opening.
So the box is sealed with the orange tape.
Does this package have orange tape?
No, it does not.
You just pull the top here and it opens.
So let's start with, there's a lot of packages around us.
We're surrounded by packages.
We're surrounded by Amazon packages.
First things first, I saw this.
Can you guess what this is?
It's a light.
Yeah, so you can see the image on here.
It looks like a light.
I'm going to put the light up so you can see us better.
So this is the first thing I'm going to open.
Can you pass me the knife?
Yeah, I will.
So this is a knife.
The handle is black and the blade is stainless steel.
The handle is black and the blade is stainless steel.
You use the sharp side to now cut the tape.
Yeah.
Now I'm going to cut the tape that's sealing this package.
Okay.
So first package, and as you guys can see here, this is a light.
So it's in a plastic bag.
The light is in a plastic bag and now I'm going to open it.
So you can see this light is very thin.
It's very thin light.
Normally a light like this way bigger, normally they look like this and you call that a soft box.
Are we going to use the light now?
Yeah, we're gonna use the light right now.
So I'm gonna set it up, so I'm gonna take all the parts out of the package.
This right here is the stand, that is the power cord.
This right here is the remote.
So now I
I'm going to attach the stand.
What's this?
Do you want to grab that box?
Yep.
You want to plug this in?
Yep.
So I'm going to plug this in now.
Let's continue opening packages.
Hopefully you guys can see us better.
So this one we can just tear open.
We can tear it open.
So now I'm going to tear it open.
This, I believe, is mine.
So now we're going to just put the package on the ground, I guess.
Yeah, I have a pile here.
We'll show you the pile at the end.
So what is this?
Pass the knife, please.
Thank you.
And this, you guys, this is for your camera.
So you put your camera on here and then it can slide in and out.
So you can see now.
So you put your camera on here and then you put a neck strap and you attach it so you could hold your camera here.
And when you want to use your camera, you can just unhook it and then use your camera.
Next, this is an easy one.
Can you guys guess what this is?
This is a mouse, not the animal, but the electronic device.
Can you pass the knife?
So Volker, why do you have to buy so many little odds and ends for your camera equipment?
Can you remind your... That is necessary for safety so your device doesn't fall.
And this is just to edit faster.
So if I'm editing with a mouse it's a lot quicker because these keys on the mouse are all customizable.
So you can work faster.
And did you have some of the equipment before you were robbed?
Yeah, so I had most of this stuff before, but as you guys know, I was robbed.
If you want to see that video, it's right here.
Next package.
It's kind of hot in here.
I turned it off because it's hot.
Do you want to open this one?
And this one is a phone case.
So you can see here, this is a phone case.
So a phone case is something that protects your phone.
Okay, next package.
This one feels kind of heavy.
Feel that?
Kind of heavy.
I wonder what's in there.
It's heavy.
So this is light.
It's very light.
Heavy.
It's like this is heavy, so let's open it.
This is yours.
Oh, it has your name on it, okay.
So this, this right here is a label.
This is a packing label.
Do you want to open it, since it's yours?
Yes, go ahead.
Don't, don't cut yourself.
Also important rule never cut towards you.
Yes, never cut towards you.
Bad Oh, okay.
This is some security cameras.
That's a good word.
Security cameras.
Okay, so these are home security cameras.
Security cameras.
So this is just for your home security and to see the people that come to your home.
And this one is a doorbell camera.
And this is a doorbell camera.
A doorbell camera.
What do you do with doorbells?
You ring doorbells.
So I'm going to ring the doorbell.
Ring.
Put a ring sound there.
Okay.
What's next?
Do you want to do this one?
Whose is this?
This is ours.
This is ours.
So now let me cut it open with a knife.
And remember guys, if you guys want to get the 3000 most common English words, it's in the description.
So make sure you check that out.
Did you order this?
I ordered this, I think.
And I ordered this.
I don't know why both of our names are on here.
OK, so this is a battery for my camera.
This is a camera battery, a battery.
This is a power bank, but specifically this is a portable power bank, a portable power bank.
What does that mean?
It means it's meant to be carried around.
So it's easy to carry and you could just put it on the back of your phone.
Quick question.
How many of you want to learn English, but you just feel like you don't have the time?
Between school, work, and life, it's easy for your study plans to get pushed aside.
After using today's sponsor Acuflow for over a month, I can honestly say it's one of the productivity apps that actually helps me make time for things that matter.
My favorite feature is time blocking.
I can drag my tasks, even studying, straight into my calendar.
It's simple, it's visual and it guarantees I set aside time to actually practice instead of just hoping I'll remember.
What I like is that it keeps me realistic.
If I've only got an hour free, I block it for focused studying.
If I'm busier, I can still schedule short 30-minute sessions so I don't lose momentum.
And all those tasks I'm blocking don't just appear from nowhere.
Acuflow has a universal inbox that pulls in everything.
Gmail, Slack, Notion, Todoist, all into one place.
No more bouncing between 10 different apps or forgetting where something was saved.
And the part I really love customization and rituals.
I can color code my calendar, set up morning rituals and even organize projects exactly how i like them.
It makes my schedule feel personal and motivating, not just another to-do list.
So if you're learning english and also juggling a busy schedule, i think acuflow can really help.
They even give you a free one-on-one onboarding call to help you get set up.
Click my link in the description to try it out for free.
Thank you acuflow, for sponsoring today's video.
And there are so many things here I can't even I can't even count how many items we have.
I can't even count how many items we have because one two three four five, six.
One box might have multiple items.
There's just so many items, so many packages.
Let's check out this one.
Why don't you do one of the big boxes, a big box?
We'll do this one and then one of the big boxes.
I could do a big box.
That's next to you.
That's yours.
Oh, is it?
I'll do this box.
You guys want to do this one?
We'll do this.
This is the biggest box.
Okay.
Let's put it down here.
Before we open it, do you guys have any guesses?
Do you have any guesses what this might be?
Any guesses?
I guess, what do you guess?
What do you think is in here?
Do you have any guesses?
Well, I have a good idea, so I don't want to give it away.
What's your guess?
It's a suitcase.
My guess is it's a suitcase too.
And I guessed that because I bought it.
And I guessed it because you told me so.
So I'm going to cut it open.
This package is not from Amazon.
As you can see, it doesn't have the same packaging as the other boxes.
Watch out.
So this right here, guys, this is a suitcase.
This is a suitcase.
And a suitcase is used for traveling.
So you put your clothes and different items inside your suitcase when you travel.
And it has a lock on this side.
Yeah, so there's a lock on this side.
And since we're opening big packages, I'll open the second biggest package here.
Let me open it.
Oh.
Oh, what is that?
Looks like a backpack.
I think we've got a surprise gift here.
This is a free backpack.
Two!
I asked for...
I reached out to my favorite backpack company, AIR, and they sent me two free backpacks.
Wow.
Wow, that's a really nice gift.
Let's take it out.
So this video isn't sponsored by AIR, but AIR did send me this backpack for free.
And the reason I chose AIR and reached out to them was because this was the best backpack you can buy.
I was surprised.
I was like, what's this?
This is the backpack.
This is a 16 liter backpack.
So 16 liters is just how much you can fit in here.
And one thing I like is that inside of the backpack is bright orange.
So you can see all your things and the outside is waterproof.
So it protects all your gear.
So it's waterproof.
So if I'm carrying my camera or my laptop, I can put it in here and I don't have to worry.
Okay, let's go gift Leon a backpack.
Yes, I'll take the camera.
I'm going to bless you with a 24 liter air backpack.
They gave me two backpacks, one 16 liter and one 24.
That was fast.
Dude, I know.
Look at that.
What do you think?
Holy shit.
It's got the clamshell, right?
Yeah.
Well, no, not... Actually, I don't know.
Yeah, I think it does.
It opens like this.
So, yeah.
That camera cube I have right there.
Yeah, so...
Shout out Air.
Thank you guys for sending both me and Leon a backpack.
We just gave my brother the other bag.
Now... Whose is that?
This is Leon's.
I think these are Leon's.
Those are Leon's.
So this is just a charger for your phone.
A charger for your phone.
A charger is just used to charge your phone.
And this is just a small bag.
This one's ours.
Okay, let's do that.
What does it feel like?
It feels like Christmas morning.
It feels like Christmas morning.
Absolutely does.
Actually, it feels like more than Christmas morning because... Because we don't have to wait.
Yes.
Oh wow, this is another phone charger for someone else.
Remember guys, there's five people that live here five and the amazon prime sale is only once or twice a year.
So everything we needed to buy, we bought, especially especially now, because soon, leon and i are going to korea.
So if you guys want to meet up or be in a video, dm me on instagram or leave a comment.
I want to meet you guys when i go to korea, and i'll also be going to other countries like vietnam Malaysia Philippines Indonesia Thailand China, Japan.
So I'll be going to a lot of countries.
So you guys make sure you keep in touch because I'll be seeing you guys there.
So this, you guys, This is a mic, this is a microphone, because I'm actually gonna start a new type of video very soon.
So I'm gonna start a video using this microphone and these lights.
So I think you guys will really, really enjoy this.
So keep an eye out for when I try out a new format of video, because I wanna post two videos a week.
Two videos a week, one comprehensible input vlog.
And then the second one.
I'm not gonna tell you yet because that's a secret, but it's coming soon, guys.
So this, you guys, let me show you what this is.
A running vest.
You know what you use a running vest for?
It's a weighted vest?
No.
Oh, it's for your camera gear?
I don't know.
Guess again.
A running vest.
No, I don't really... No, I'm kidding.
For running.
A running vest.
You use it for running, Volker.
Yeah.
Oh, it's got a water...
So this water pack you call a bladder.
This is a bladder.
And usually you put it in the back of your hiking bag or your running pack.
Okay, so what I don't understand is why are you getting a running vest?
Let me show you guys.
A running vest.
Do you have any guesses why I bought this?
Well, I know that you're not a runner, so.
So I got this running vest because I really want to start running, but I'm really not good at running and I'm out of shape.
So I need to drink water a lot or else I can't run that far.
So with this running vest, I could just drink water directly from the bladder with a tube, and that will help me run.
So I really want to get into shape.
I want to get back into shape and hopefully this will help me.
So we have only a few packages left.
I believe this one is also a suitcase.
Move that box please.
So this is a carry-on suitcase, a carry-on suitcase.
That other suitcase was a checked suitcase, checked luggage.
This is a carry-on.
Carry-ons are usually smaller.
As you guys know, I've already said I got this stuff because I'm going to Korea and I didn't have any suitcases.
So I had to buy new ones.
Okay, last package.
Oh my gosh.
That is heavy.
This is just yours.
Is it mine?
Well, let's... Oh, I know what this is.
This is just yours.
Okay, let's open it.
What is it?
I know what it is.
This is just my mom's.
It's the heaviest package so far.
It's... Well, let's pull it out and then... What is it?
Well, you'll see.
It's going to be a surprise.
Oh...
Okay.
So... First one?
Yep.
Second one.
They do the same.
So they are camping chairs.
Oh, both of these?
Yep, they're both camping chairs.
You got a lot of stuff in here and a book.
And a book.
A book to read and... You got three of these things.
I'm going to have to check what that is.
So you can open this.
Oh, I know what this is too.
This is a good one.
What is it?
This is a cot?
This is a tent, a two-man tent.
Oh.
So this is a two-man tent for when we go and travel in November.
So this is a tent, but the tent is packed up right now.
But this is a tent.
And these are little portable chairs, fold-up chairs.
So yeah, these are camping chairs.
And they are really comfortable.
Okay, so this you should open.
What does it say?
Model and size?
Oh, you know what?
I was going to say it might not be the shoes that I'm thinking of.
There's three of them.
There are three of them.
These are dad's.
And we bought these for a special reason.
Do you want to say the reason or?
Well, I think the special reason is they need to keep on following you and see where your travels take you.
This is mine.
I'm going to return this blank then.
I'll return this from them since I don't need it.
Returning or to return is when you take a package and you just send it back to where you got it from.
So in this case, I'm going to send that back to Amazon because I don't need it.
You guys could see here, we have a pile of boxes here from all our packages.
So we have a pile of boxes here, a pile yeah, that you will be recycling.
Yep, of course, okay.
So this right here guys, this is a neck pillow.
Let me see if i can figure this thing out.
So this is a neck pillow.
How does that feel?
Actually, kind of nice, because when i fly to korea, it's going to be a 16 hour flight 16 hours.
So this costs like 20 bucks.
So for me it's worth it, because I'm sitting in economy, not in first class, not in business class, but economy.
So I need this $20 comfort.
So it says here upgrade to first class with our VIP club.
So now you've upgraded with this neck pillow.
The rest is Leon's stuff, so we're not going to touch it.
That's his.
