Well....

I've had a really hard time finishing any kdrama recently and I have no idea why. I'm done with uni for a while, this should be the time when I catch up on everything, but I just don't feel like it.

Unfortunately, I have yet to finish Unlock My Boss, I have also started watching Brain Cooperation (Brain Works) and Island. I haven't gotten past episode 4 on both. I've also yet to finish the show Namjoon was on. Also stuck on episode 4.

LOOK, I will do it at some point. However, I found it interesting that I got stuck on episode 4 on three out of the four shows I was watching.

Interesting fact: A lot of Asian countries consider the number 4 to be bad luck. China, Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Vietnam are all very superstitious, but the reason why they consider the number 4 to be bad luck, is because it has an alternate meaning of "death/die/dead". Or could have that meaning in specific cases. (I'm no language expert, but if anyone could explain in more detail, please.)

Often in those countries, in elevators the button for the 4th floor is recplaced by an "F", or is just missing in general.

Anyways, I thought this could be interesting for someone. Idk who.

I'll finish those shows.

Floods were estimated to be the costliest disaster from Asian countries including China and India. China lost $18.4 billion due to floods, followed by India ($3.2 billion) and Thailand ($0.6 billion). India lost $4.4 billion due to storms, followed by China $3 billion and Japan $2 billion. In 2021, over 80 per cent of the extreme events were floods and storms. Floods in India, China and Afghanistan caused the greatest number of fatalities, highlighting the high level of vulnerability of Asia, especially to floods. In India, during the monsoon season, the heavy rain and flash floods resulted in about 1,300 human deaths, the report cited.

Do non Brazilians/Filipinos know about Brazilippines…. Brazilians and Filipinos randomly decided that we were two sides of the same coin and have now become besties

People online (white) will create so many conspiracy theories that just boil down to "Asians aren't complete human beings with their own thoughts and autonomy" like maybe Chinese people are just going about their day to day life. Maybe a video of a North Korean person like chilling is just a person chilling, who isn't going to power down like a robot once the video is over. Stop being a fucking creep.

This one was trickier, spent ages trying to remember Bahrain and Yemen cause I knew there was a B and a Y in the region but they just wouldn't come back to me at the time. I knew I was missing some of the '-stans' as well but only two in the end. These quizzes are so fun to do though!

BEATING MOSQUITOES 

BiograView was contacted by QIMR Berghofer Medical Research Institute with a media release of this Pacific alliance to combat mosquito-borne diseases. With all the hype around Covid-19 it is easy to forget other diseases still prevalent in the world.  It is great to see so many international organisations working together to combat the still-present, mosquito-borne diseases.  Twelve international…

Most Asian countries prioritised adaptation in climate action plans but there is a need to do more to achieve early warnings for all, the authors of the report wrote. Strengthening the early warning systems can play a pivotal role in taking anticipatory action, enhancing preparedness and reducing the impact of these hazards, it said. Data on loss and damage is required more than ever as funding for loss & damage has made it to COP27 agenda for the first time ever in the history of UN climate negotiations. A realistic estimate can still be made about the number of days the country recorded extreme weather events.
