But, er, ClickUp isn't it for me still, sorry.

After #JoyOfLife2, my brain is rebelling at the thought of watching anything, well, not as good 😅. #TheDouble is very buzzy, but I know I will be very harsh on it (in terms of writing & acting), so I have decided to watch Under the Microscope, starring Zhang Ruo Yun. It's about math and taxes. Ikr?? But it's seriously more interesting that that!
Also, With You, an anthological TV show about #COVID19's effects on #China's society.

Dropped Midnight studio (left) and decided to read recaps instead. I actually soldiered on with Now, it's Showtime and I want my time back, even if I fast forwarded and skipped a lot of scenes 😅 Too many filler scenes, uneven story telling which didn't manage the comedy and angst well. And worse of all, boring 😅. With Midnight Studio I got bored by the 4th ep because I just knew where the story was going, and judging by the recaps I was right.

This is soooo sad! Dr Michael Mosley was an amazing thinker whose documentary on fasting I rewatched regularly. I loved his health series and podcasts.

I just want to say that if you do go for a hike, especially at a new place, please tell people where you are going and if possible don't go alone.

😔

Who knew that the best task app I have ever used, is able to sticky on top like I have always wanted to and on top of that, free ...turns out to be Microsoft To Do 😆

Lol reading this chapter from the graded reader from Mandarin Companion and have to chuckle to myself: This is peak Asian mum, for real.

Fyi the poor man is complaining about his mum's relentless matchmaking efforts.

A question I need answered. Why do U Western folks eat rice with a fork? Is it cos it's unclassy to use a spoon? Is it because you like the physical and mental challenge? Is it because you need to slow down your consumption of the carb? Such a mystery

Woke up with three trapped bees in the study and a cockroach staring me down at the hall. Alas, I have been lax with the trash 😅

The bees, however, is the consequence of living on top of a hill covered with trees. Good on some days (birdsong can't be beat), but the downsides can be prickly wildlife which includes bees and snakes 🤭

Yeah I'm known for listening to hard rock, metal music, and edgy ethnic tunes. But I also veer wildly to the other side - here's a selection of my favourite Chinese songs, mostly ballads, mostly culled from Chinese dramas, predictably lol

Hilarious that I found out about X's new p0rn is OK policy from a Malaysian minister

FYI: Minister just said they'll send a stern protest about this new policy.

Another fun vocab discovery today

“云雨”,“风花雪月”or“风月”

1. 云雨 (yún yǔ)

• Translation: "Clouds and rain."

2. 风花雪月 (fēng huā xuě yuè)
   Wind, flowers, snow and moon

3. 风月 (fēng yuè)

• Translation: "Wind and moon."

Yea they mean sexual/romantic activity or feelings.

Leave it to the Chinese to use small talk about the weather to talk about 👩‍❤️‍💋‍👨

😆

These are the #Kdramas and #Cdramas that I plan to catch up with this year. I have a feeling I may end up dropping The Legends, because I have very little patience for xianxia, but since it stars Xu Kai maybe I'll give it more of a chance :P

A month ago #cdrama reddit really got going in response to prompt: ‘What I learned from Cdramas. Wrong answers only’

“Only 1 sip of "hangover soup" is required to erase all symptoms.

Delicious looking meals are for taking 1 or 2 bites and then leaving the rest on the table.

There are approx 1,000,000,000 types of poison which most characters know by heart….”
