Revision, Module 6, Exercise F. 1.0:00
When I was growing up, my parents worked a lot, so they didn't have time to make home-cooked meals.0:06
As a result, we ate mostly fast food, which made me overweight.0:12
I never really worried about it until last year, when my doctor told me I would have problems if I didn't start dieting.0:17
I bought some books on healthy eating and and also started working out.0:24
I'm so much thinner now and have much more confidence.0:28
I've always enjoyed being creative, whether it was painting or sculpting.0:35
That's why I decided to go to art school.0:40
At the student art show, my drawings were spotted by someone in the industry.0:43
He offered me an apprenticeship and trained me to work with needle and ink.0:47
Although this isn't the type of work I thought I'd be doing, it's really satisfying to know that people are walking around with my artwork on their skin.0:52
On this programme, we're going to give Julie a makeover.1:04
Although Julie is only 25 years old, she looks much older because she wears old-fashioned clothes.1:08
Today, we're going to get Julie in some fitted new clothes.1:15
And also give her beautiful long hair a boost with some colour.1:19
We'll get her looking fashionable in no time.1:24
I spoke to a woman last week about my wedding.1:31
She said I should come in for a hair trial so that she could experiment with some different styles for the wedding.1:34
Now, I booked an appointment for tomorrow but forgot that I had already made plans.1:40
Would it be possible to come on Friday afternoon instead?1:45
I'm really sorry for the inconvenience.1:48
Did you always know you wanted to become a plastic surgeon?1:54
Well, I studied medicine because my father encouraged me to do so.1:57
While I was in surgical training, my professor told me that I would make an ideal plastic surgeon because my hand was very steady.2:01
So you followed this advice?2:08
However, many people assume that plastic surgery is only for cosmetic purposes.2:12
But actually, most plastic surgery is performed to help people who have been badly scarred or injured.2:17
So I'm glad that my skills are being put to good use.2:22
Throughout history, fashion has repeated itself again and again.2:29
But what's in store for us next season?2:33
Well, the catwalks have just exploded with a '60s revival.2:36
Runways have been covered in bright colours, fitted dresses, and big hair.2:41
These trends are set to hit the high street next season, but you may also find some great bargains in a secondhand shop.2:46
When I was younger, I used to play a lot of rugby.2:57
One day I fell over during a match and broke my nose.3:00
Since then, my nose has been slightly crooked.3:03
At first, it made me feel really uncomfortable and self-conscious.3:05
I used to think that everybody was staring at me.3:09
These days, though, I'm not really bothered.3:12
I mean, there's more to life than the way you look.3:14
Last summer, I joined a fitness camp to lose weight.3:19
We woke up at 6 AM every morning and ran around the racetrack before breakfast.3:23
After that, we did some yoga to strengthen our muscles.3:28
The afternoons were reserved for team sports.3:32
I'd always liked these activities, but one day I fell and twisted my ankle during a hockey game.3:35
It started to swell up, so my instructor sent me to the emergency room.3:41
Unfortunately, I had torn a muscle and was forced to leave the camp.3:45
