What’s up, VoiceTubers! My name is Ingrid and you’re listening to today’s pronunciation challenge. Are you easily embarrassed? Do your cheeks turn red when you’re feeling shy? I am the type of person who blushes at everything. Fun fact, I have long hair, so whenever I feel like I’m going to blush, I pull my hair in front of my eyes and just cover them.
