Luke Likes 'Story Of My Life'

I wanted, want, wanted. I wanted to talk about today, my day. What happened, happened, happened, happened. What happened to me today that I didn't, I did, didn't, don't, didn't. I didn't have the best day. I didn't have the best day. I had, have, had, I had. I had quite a bad day. Quite a bad start of the day. I will just say stay away from bad people. Stay away from them. Stay away.

Instead, instead. So not this, but something else. Instead, instead. I will have not a regular story. Quite a twisted, crazy, twisted story. Hope you will like it.

Okay, so one day, let's say, one day. One day, I, oh, get, got. So I got a book. I got a book. So I got a book and I opened it and, oh, freeze, froze. I froze. I froze because I looked at the title and it said, they said 'The Life and Work of Luke', my name. Oh my God!, I thought, think, thought, think, thought.

So I got a book.

I opened it.

I looked and

I froze because

the title said, the title said, 'Life and Work of Luke'

And then, oh, take, took. I took. I took. I took it and went out. Go, went.

So I opened.

I looked and

I took it and

went out. I went out.

On my way, meet, met, I met. I met my neighbour. I met my neighbour and told him, obviously, I told him, tell, told, I told him everything about this crazy, twisted, twisted situation. But he wasn't, isn't, wasn't. He wasn't shocked like me. Why? He wasn't.

So I took the book.

I went out and

I met my neighbor.

I told, tell, told him everything and

he wasn't shocked.

He, he told me he had, he had this book. He had this book about me, which was really, really strange. It was, have, had, have, had. Buy, bought. He bought this book a long time ago. And I guess, I guess he knew, know, knew. He knew everything about me from it. He knew everything about me. Wait, am I famous?,I thought. Am I famous? Think, thought, I thought, am I famous?

So he told me

he had this book and

it was strange.

And he bought it a long time ago.

And he knew, he knew everything about me from the book.

And I thought, I thought, am I famous?

I thought, am I famous?

So then run, ran, I ran, I ran back to my house. I ran back to my house and begin, begin, began. I began, I began to wonder. I began to think wonder. Is this a joke? Is this a joke? Or maybe this is a dream. Maybe I'm dreaming, I'm dreaming. I thought, think, thought. I couldn't tell. Can, could. Can't, couldn't. I couldn't tell.

What is real and what is not.

Maybe the book is real.

Maybe my life looks real.

But it's just a story.

And I'm just a character in the past.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!

Luke Likes 'Thank God'

I have this friend, I have this friend that always says, always says, Hmm, can you buy friends? No, you can't. Can you buy love? Well, no, you can't. Definitely you can't. But, thank God, you can buy food. Thank God.

Yeah, I'm not sure, I'm not sure that I'm the same way. but I'm not just a voice on your telephone, I'm not just a voice, I do eat food, I will not surprise you here, I eat food, and I appreciate, appreciate, so I think it is important, I appreciate food.

And maybe it's not the most important part of my life, it isn't, but, obviously, it is a big part. It is a big part.I have four to five meals because that is what, that is what we learn here, that we have to, we have to have many regular but small, regular but small meals. I don't know if it's true. I don't know if it's healthy. I'm not saying that. You choose. You go and see your doctor. You go and ask Google or who you want. I do that.

And the first and the most important for me, but again, this is what I learn, this is what I learn back in school, back in school, and I think a lot of people follow this rule that breakfast, breakfast, I'm talking about breakfast, is the most important meal of the day.

My breakfast starts, most of the days, between seven and eight. And I am very, very regular when it comes to breakfast. So, for me, it has to be light, has to be a little sweet, and has to take little time, has to take little time to prepare. And the perfect meal, perfect meal that fits, fits here, fits here is oatmeal. This is my lovely, fantastic oatmeal. And I will add, I will add that I am a bit of an oatmeal addict, oatmeal addict, so I can't live without it, I can't live, like an addict, because I don't really remember the day without. Yeah, I can't remember the day the last time without oatmeal. There is no day without oatmeal. No day.

Anyway, anyway, oatmeal with nuts, oatmeal with fruit, blueberries, blueberries for me, oatmeal with yogurt, oatmeal with peanut butter. That's all very tasty, all very tasty. And if only I have more time in the morning, I usually don't, if only I have a little more time, I enjoy it very much and take my time, I take my time eating it and enjoying it, yeah.

Alright, then comes lunch, lunch, maybe around twelve, around twelve, and for me, it's maybe a little sad to say, but it is usually scrambled eggs, scrambled eggs for lunch. I like it. I like it. It's quick, it's easy and it has protein, protein that I want, I want. And I like it. Why not?

Then comes dinner, dinner. Usually should be a little earlier, earlier than that, but for me, it's around 5-6pm, 5-6pm. And it can be different every day. Tofu sometimes, pasta sometimes, oh, dumplings for example, dumplings. I love these, dumplings.

I finish the day with the last meal, let's call that supper, the last supper. And for me this must be some yogurt with protein, protein, this important element we get from food, and some fruits, fruits. Yeah, that's lovely. Not a lot, in between. there are obviously sometimes snacks, snacks in between the meals.

I quite enjoy it. I quite enjoy it. Especially when I can spend a little more time eating and enjoying my meal. This is really pleasant. I love that time with the family, at the table, thinking, thank God you can buy food, thank God.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!

Luke Likes 'Trendsetter'

A trendsetter, that is the word to learn in English, that is the word to learn in English because, hmm, what is trendy and what isn't anymore? It isn't trendy anymore, so it was, it was trendy. And it isn't or things that were, were trendy, were trendy some time ago, some time ago, and they aren't, they aren't anymore, they aren't anymore,

So if you want to, if you want to know that, you are in the right place because I am your trendsetter, trendsetter. No I am not really, I am not, I am not, I am so not a trendsetter, I am so not. So if you are a little like me, meaning, which means, which means you don't follow what is trendy, that might be a little difficult, that might be a little difficult to decide what is trendy and was trendy.

I am trying to follow a little bit but I like the clothes I wear, but at the same time, at the same time, I am not quick, I am not quick to change the style, I am not quick to change the style. Okay, I don't know what the latest trend in fashion is, I don't know. I can see that, but do I do it? Hmm, not really, not really, because it comes and goes, it comes and it goes. So it is right now, but soon, soon, it won't be here, it won't be here. Something else, something else will come.

It always amazes me, it is amazing, it always amazes me how the fit, the fit, the style or the fit of jeans changes, the fit of jeans changes. For example, slim fit, slim fit. I am not sure if it is trendy right now, because I can see that baggy jeans, baggy trousers and baggy jeans are the most popular, are the most popular at to the moment, and the slim fit jeans were, were popular a few years ago, a few years back. So they aren't popular anymore,

Also when I look at teenagers, teenagers, I have to say that hoodies, hoodies, hoodies, big baggy hoodies are popular, but I don't think they were, I don't think they were that popular in the past, especially for girls, especially for girls. I might be wrong here, teenagers don't be upset with me, don't be upset with me. I'm sure you will, but try not to. But this is what I can see, so they weren't, they weren't as popular as they are right now,

And also when it comes to colours, that's amazing, that's amazing. Because well, guess what, guess what, there are, in my opinion, that is definitely my opinion, there are two main colours, I am talking about teenagers here, and they are navy blue, dark blue, this is colour number one, and colour number two is black. That's all. Very, very mono, monochromatic world. Very sad really, very sad. Monochromatic. One colour world. Two colour world, I'm sorry, two colour world.

Okay, let's add, let's add, let's put one more colour, gray, gray too, so three colour, but this is all, all: black, dark blue, and gray. No more colours, no more colours. Three colours. Like a very sad flag, in fact. A very sad flag, of a very sad country, in a very sad world, very sad.

So it is always, always interesting to see how those things, those trends and tastes, and tastes, so things we like, change, change over, over time, and there is one sure thing, that one day, one day, what was trendy, will not be anymore, but after some time it will come back, and be trendy again, again.

So maybe think twice, think twice, think carefully, think twice, before you get rid, get rid of your old clothes, because if you want to be a trendsetter, look into your wardrobe to find what was trendy five, ten years ago.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!

Luke Likes 'I Might Be Wrong'

I wonder, I wonder, because I am not sure, I wonder about many things, actually many things. I wonder, I am not sure, I am not sure, but I am sure that it is evening and I am recording a podcast and I am having my green tea, obviously, so all of that is sure. I wonder about you, because there is a lot of questions, a lot of questions about you. I have no idea, I might be wrong, I may be wrong, I might, I may, I might be wrong, I might be wrong. I can try, I can try and guess.

Let me think, let me think. You might be, you might be, you might be tired, you might be tired right now and I am sure you are listening to this, you are listening right now, so you must be listening, but you might be tired because it might be evening, it might be evening after the whole day of work, the whole day of school.

You must, you must figure out, figure out, you must figure out yourself what this episode is about.

I know, I know, you may, may, you may, you may, you may be having your lunch right now, and you may be thinking, you may be thinking, I may listen to the podcast because I have some time off, I have some time off, I'm having a break, I am having a break, so it is just perfect, perfect time to learn some English. So you may be having your break and may be sitting somewhere at a table or you may be sitting comfortably, comfortably, you may be sitting comfortably somewhere on the sofa or in your chair, in your chair and hopefully, hopefully, so I hope, hopefully you may be learning something new and something interesting, I hope.

It might not be your best day today. It may not be that special. Or it might be the best day of the year, the best day of your life. I have no idea. You may be thinking, you may be thinking, hmm, what am I going to do after listening, after listening?, what am I going to do?

Or you might be having your coffee, your midday coffee, your midday coffee and you might be wondering, you might be wondering, hmm, alright, I am listening to the podcast right now, but what is he doing? He's not recording. He may be recording, he might be thinking about the new episode. Yeah, he must be doing that, he must be doing that. He might be shopping, he might be shopping for clothes, yeah, he might be buying one of his umbrellas. Who knows, who knows, I can't tell you that.

So I might be wrong, I might be wrong, but you also might be doing those things. You might be. Anything's possible here.

Luke Likes 'Wanna Go To The Gym?'

Hey, do you ever think, do you ever think, um, maybe I will go to the gym, maybe I'll go to the gym. Maybe I will start?That is not a bad idea, that is not a bad idea, but you do know, you do know what the most important thing is? You know, of course you know, it's your bag. It is your bag. You have to, you have to start with a bag.

So, first, buy a good, nice, fashionable, fashionable, nice fashionable bag. That's how you start. So you go to a sports shop, and that's sports apparel, apparel, clothes, apparel, sports apparel, you can get sports apparel, and also some stuff, sports stuff, like a bag, like a bottle, special bottle for water, and all kinds of things, all kinds of things. In English, kit or gear, kit, you get your kit or gear, you get your gear, sports kit, sports gear for the gym. So that's how you start.

But the bag is just the beginning. It is just the beginning. Also you get some sports shoes. Very, very, very expensive ones, very expensive ones. Super cool, super cool, fashionable. It's best when it's lightweight, lightweight shoes, super light, lightweight shoes, and it's best when it is promoted on some social media. That's how you do it. That's how you do it.

So you get those shoes, and the rest, the rest of sportswear, some leggings and special t-shirts. They are not really casual, casual clothes. Those are performance, performance clothes, so you can perform, you can get great results. Without that, you are nothing, you're nothing. You have to have it. Yeah. And then I suppose you are ready to go to the gym.

I'm not sure if this is good or bad, but it's like this with all the sports. I do tennis a little bit, and it's not different, it is not different. Oh my gosh, I have like probably ten pairs of different sports, tennis shoes, performance shoes, and they are all very similar, they are all very similar, but they tell me you need these shoes for this kind of, it's called in English surface, surface. So the surface of the ground you play on.

And of course, the rest of clothes, sportswear too. Oh, very important as well is the tennis bag to keep your gear, to keep your kit inside, kit, gear inside, like tennis rackets, balls, bottles, towels, and different kinds of bands, bands, so small little pieces you wear, you wear on your hands, on your head, like headbands, stuff like that. So sports apparel, sports apparel, gear, kit, all of that that comes with doing sport.

Alright, tennis or the gym, you might think, yeah, obviously I need that to be good at it and to perform to get the results, because it is a little maybe difficult without it. But the surprising sport for you can be running. Yeah, you think, I like running, I think I can do it, I can go out and just do it. But no, no, no, no, you cannot, you cannot do it just like that. First, of course, yeah, maybe not the bag, not the bag, but a lot of, a lot of gear, a lot of equipment, a lot of gear, a lot of stuff, a lot of apparel that is not just helpful, helpful, but it just looks good, it looks good. This is your lifestyle, this is your lifestyle. Because as they say, this is not just about the race, it is not just about the sport itself, it is not, it is about how you live your life every day, how you live your life every day.

I'm not so sure what they think of that, but I think I am the same, unfortunately, I am the same. Because it's just more fun this way, more fun. I don't always feel good about it, because it's a waste, it is a waste, and I sometimes feel bad about ten pairs of tennis shoes or basketball shoes, and different kinds of shirts, shorts, pants, hats, and different kinds of gear, but it is more fun this way, it is just, it is more fun, I don't know how it works. I think I'm just vain, I am just vain. Yeah, that's what I want to say. I'm vain, I do sport.

So maybe, I feel a little bit, a little bit guilty, guilty, so it means that I feel bad about what I am doing, I feel guilty. But at the same time, it helps me do it on and on and on. Because this way it's just more fun. It is, come on. Feels good.So, wanna go to the gym? Get the bag, get the bag.

Well, it's your turn now. Embrace the day, people!

Luke Likes 'Not Too Tight'

Well, I'm back, I'm back, and I'm pretty cold.I'm back and I'm pretty cold. I'm back from quite a long, quite a long, quite a long walk outside. Walk in the evening and it is cold. It is cold and it's raining.

I put on some warm clothes, but not very thick. Not very thick, quite thin. Thin because it is more comfortable that way, more comfortable. So I put on the sweatpants that are pretty thin, pretty thin, but also stretchy and flexible, pretty flexible. So I like those, I like those.

And a longsleeve that is a little warmer, warmer than just a t-shirt, just a t-shirt, but also quite comfortable and stretchy, flexible. And on top, on top of that, on top, I put on, I put on a windbreaker jacket which, which is not waterproof, not waterproof, unfortunately, but it's got a hoodie, a hoodie. And it is quite light not very heavy, quite light, so it is thin, it is thin, not thick. So not very warm, but I need this type of outfit, I need this type of outfit so thatI feel comfortable, comfortable.

Oh, and a hat, and a hat, a hat made of cotton, cotton, but just enough, just enough to keep my head warm, to keep my head warm. Unfortunately, I didn't take gloves, I didn't take the gloves with me, so my hands got pretty cold, got pretty cold. Next time I'll remember that, I'll remember that, definitely.

Yeah, so as you can see those clothes, those clothes are pretty casual, not very elegant, pretty casual because the comfort is the most important, the most important over here for me. And, hmm, I like those clothes to be narrow, narrow, not very wide, narrow. A little tight, I can say, not very loose, tight, because I feel best this way, I feel best this way.

But you know, that depends, that depends on the situation but if I am active like that, I am active like that I prefer clothes to be, well, in general, I have to say, in general, I have to say they are pretty narrow and tight, not too tight, not too tight. But close to the body, close to the body.

Yeah, and now I'm going out, I'm going out, and I need something a little less casual, less casual, also comfortable, maybe a shirt, a shirt, well, striped one, a plain one, without any pattern, without any pattern, well, checked shirt. A plaid shirt, a plaid shirt, maybe, but I think I prefer, I prefer a plain one, a plain shirt. And obviously, obviously, long-sleeved, long-sleeved shirt, a long sleeved shirt, not a short-sleeved shirt. To be honest, I don't really like those short-sleeved, short-sleeved shirts. I don't really like those.

And what else? A pair of jeans, obviously, a pair of jeans. Pretty casual, pretty casual, nothing special. Straight and narrow, obviously, narrow and straight. And sneakers, yeah, I do wear sneakers. Oh, and short, not long, short, short socks, short 'shocks', short socks, not 'sort shocks'. Not, not like that, not 'sort shocks', but short socks. Crazy English. Also need to put on those.

Comfortable shoes, comfortable sneakers, which are also very, very, very casual. Not high, high tops, high top, so high sneakers, but low, low-tops, low, low sneakers. I prefer those today, I suppose, today. And a coat, yeah, a coat. A pretty thick one, pretty thick one, pretty thick one, made of wool, made of wool.
