10 more Liu Yuning songs I love

Note: this is part 2. For part 1, go here.

Ask Heaven (天问), 2021 OST opening theme song for Word of Honor Why it's good: this is probably the first Liu Yuning song I heard (without knowing who he was), since I watched Word of Honor when it came out on Netflix. To me, this is the song that proves Liu Yuning is the best there is at wuxia/jianghu songs. Also, I think even non-Chinese speakers can hear how every single line rhymes at the end (ending in "ao").

2. When I Met You (当遇见你), 2020 OST closing credits song for Skate Into Love Why it's good: this is different from any other Liu Yuning song I've heard - almost unbearably cute and sweet. I first heard it when I watched Skate Into Love, and I was really surprised to discover later on that this was him. I really like the vocal flourishes. This shows off another side of him and another set of his skills.

3. Looking for You (寻一个你), 2022 OST love theme for Love Between Fairy and Devil Why it's good: another song I loved before knowing Liu Yuning sang it. I think this it's fairly universally agreed that this is one of his best OSTs.

4. Promise (如约), 2019 Why it's good: it's quiet, contemplative, and philosophical. One of those sad-sounding songs that recognizes the humanity in everyone. It's just really moving.

5. Love at First Sight (一爱如故), 2021 OST love theme song for Hao Du and Leyan in The Long Ballad Why it's good: it's Hao Du and Leyan's song! Plus, it's super dramatic and he sounds great when he gets into his high range at the climax.

6. I Wish (惟愿), 2024 OST closing credits song for The Story of Pearl Girl Why it's good: it's Duan Wu and Yan Zijing's song! Plus, I love that it starts out so low at the beginning and slowly ascends. His voice is beautiful in this song. I never skip the closing credits when I'm watching this drama.

7. Destiny (造化), 2021 OST character song for Wei Wuxian in the Mo Dao Zu Shi donghua series Why it's good: such an interesting composition - really unusual melody. Love the orchestra behind it, too. Liu Yuning said recording this song almost killed him, it was so difficult to sing. He pulled it off, though, and it sounds great!

8. Born to Die (向死而生), 2024 OST for Burning Flames Why it's good: another one that shows off his vocal skills really well. He said singing it made him feel 一点儿想死 ("a little like dying," a pun on the title), so it's another difficult song he pulled off!

9. Heritage (传承), 2021 promotional song for the Palace Museum Why it's good: really nice gufeng (traditional Chinese motif/style) song where he uses at bit of pseudo-Chinese opera falsetto (starts at about 0:45).

10. Till the End (啊默契), 2019 Why it's good: another Liu Yuning classic rocking climax. I just love it when he rocks out! Plus, if you want to watch him laying on the beach with waves crashing over him, check out the MV (about 3:18)!

Como Ser Feliz No Inverno?

Ou pelo menos fazer parte dele...

⚠️🇺🇸 There is an English translation below!!!

Introdução —

Querido leitor, convenhamos que o inverno é uma época, digamos, um tanto quanto "triste". O céu está a derramar lágrimas por toda parte, e queremos nos sentir um pouco mais "quentinhos" nesse momento, ou seja, incluídos. Pensando nisso, trouxe músicas e um filme que irão te ajudar a sentir esse "sentimento", chamado inverno, mais forte.

Música —

Na minha vasta experiência com a música, posso dizer, sem sombras de dúvidas, que os dois melhores álbuns para se ouvir no inverno são nada mais, nada menos, que "folklore" e "evermore" da cantora e compositora Taylor Swift.

Lançados ambos no ano de 2020, estes álbuns misturam sentimentos semelhantes ao de uma chuva no meio da madrugada, sentimentos que vão da Lua até Saturno, sentimentos que não podem ser tolerados.

Ambos estão disponíveis em qualquer plataforma de áudio, mas você também pode ouvir e assistir aos clipes únicos de cada álbum, denominados "cardigan" e "willow", gratuitamente no YouTube, canal de Swift.

Clique nos nomes em negrito e você será direcionado para os sites!

Filme —

Não posso falar de inverno sem falar da obra-prima chamada La La Land.

O longa foi lançado em janeiro de 2017, dirigido pelo cineasta e roteirista Damien Chazelle. Conta a história de Sebastian (Ryan Gosling), um pianista, e Mia (Emily Stone), uma atriz, que se apaixonam perdidamente. É um filme musical romântico de 2h e 8m, que arrecadou aproximadamente 472 milhões de dólares mundiais. Sua dinâmica faz referência aos sentimentos com as estações do ano.

Você pode encontrar para assistir nas plataformas de streaming: Star+, Amazon Prime Video e Telecine. Mas também pode alugar: YouTube ou Google Play Filmes e Tv.

Assista ao trailer do filme aqui!

Conclusão —

Estes podem não ser os conteúdos mais felizes, porém, posso lhes garantir, queridos leitores, que é a melhor vibração de todas!

How to Be Happy in Winter?

Or at least be part of it...

⚠️🇧🇷 Tem uma tradução para português acima!!!

Introduction —

Dear reader, let's face it, winter is, let's say, a somewhat "sad" time. The sky is shedding tears everywhere, and we want to feel a little warmer at that moment, that is, included. With that in mind, I brought songs and a film that will help you feel this "feeling", called winter, stronger.

Music —

In my vast experience with music, I can say, without a shadow of a doubt, that the two best albums to listen to in winter are nothing else, nothing less than "folklore" and "evermore" by singer-songwriter Taylor Swift.

Both released in 2020, these albums mix feelings similar to rain in the middle of the night, feelings that range from the Moon to Saturn, feelings that cannot be tolerated.

Both are available on any audio platform, but you can also listen and watch unique clips from each album, called "cardigan" and "willow", for free on Swift's YouTube channel.

Click on the names in bold and you will be directed to the websites!

Film —

I can't talk about winter without mentioning the masterpiece called La La Land.

The film was released in January 2017, directed by filmmaker and screenwriter Damien Chazelle. It tells the story of Sebastian (Ryan Gosling), a pianist, and Mia (Emily Stone), an actress, who fall madly in love. It is a 2h 8m romantic musical film, which grossed approximately 472 million dollars worldwide. Its dynamics make reference to feelings such as seasons.

You can find it to watch on streaming platforms: Star+, Amazon Prime Video and Telecine. But you can also rent: YouTube or Google Play Movies and TV.

Watch the film trailer here!

Conclusion —

This may not be the happiest content, however, I can assure you, dear readers, that it is the best vibe ever!

Leituras da semana (#45 / 16 Dez 2024)

No Unofficial Hugo Book Club Blog, está em curso uma retrospectiva da categoria de "Best Dramatic Presentation" dos Prémios Hugo - já percebi que vou ter muito que ler nos próximos tempos, pois a série anda a ser escrita desde 2020 (!). Mas hoje destaco a mais recente entrada desta série, relativa aos prémios de 1983 que incidiram sobre um dos melhores anos de sempre do cinema de ficção científica e fantasia: 1982. Vejamos: Blade Runner, The Thing, E.T. The Extraterrestial, The Dark Crystal, Mad Max: The Road Warrior, Star Trek: The Wrath of Khan, Tron, The Secret of Nimh... e porventura mais alguns, fora do cinema americano, que me escapam agora. Vale muito a pena ler esta retrospectiva, ainda que tenha de discordar num ponto: The Dark Crystal é um excelente filme, e se é certo que o protagonista não é nada de especial, Aughra e os Skeksis serão tudo menos esquecíveis.

No seu blogue/newsletter, Andrew Liptak aborda a crescente procura por edições especiais de livros, fenómeno a que as redes sociais, onde a imagem é privilegiada, não serão de todo alheias. Imagino que um livro bonito fique melhor na fotografia ou no vídeo do que o mass market paperback que ser encontra nas estantes das livrarias, mas não me posso pronunciar muito sobre isso: é uma realidade que não conheço, a de booktoks e afins (mas tudo o que gerar novos leitores é bem-vindo). Dito isto, não sou alheio ao fenómeno: já comprei vários livros que desconhecia apenas e só pela capa, e se durante anos adquiri sobretudo trade paperbacks, hoje em dia dou por mim a escolhar ocasionalmente alguns exemplares de capa dura, sobretudo quando já conheço os autores e tenciono ler os livros pouco depois de terem saído (Simon Jimenez, Vajra Chandrasekera ou Nnedi Okorafor são compras imediatas, por exemplo). E por colecção, claro, e por apreciar formatos físicos. Enfim, desde que os paperbacks continuem a ser abundantes e acessíveis, está tudo bem.

[snippychicke]

Since starting my journey of self care back in like, 2020, I finally have all my cavities fixed! Yes, it took 4 years to fix like, 13-15 cavities (which also included 1 root canal, 4 wisdom teeth removal, plus a regular tooth extraction.)

Because dental insurance has a yearly max and dental work is expensive.

I still need at least 1 crown, if not 2, but they will have to wait until next year.

You may ask how I got so bad. Well, poor dental hygine as a kid, worse as a teen, very rare trips to the dentist who only berated me ao I had anxiety going back.

It took the work of two amazing dentists who did their best *not* to lecture me when giving tips about dental care. And also my new dentist has a neat suction dam thing so I don't have to taste the bits of tooth, blood, and whatever else.

Also, headphones with music and they gave me stress balls to hold/play with.

My mouth is still fucked up and I dislike my smile, but short of having facial reconstruction where they break my lower jaw and my maxilla to fix the mismatched alignment (no, braces aren't gonna cut this overbite), that ain't going to change.

But I wanted to be healthy, not beautiful. One does not equal the other.

Cym. Pandora Glade 'Woodside Pink' AM/AOS

So last weekend I participated in the gold coast cymbidium society auction and I won 3 orchids! This division was entered by Pierre Pujol, whose mother plant was Awarded Best Cymbidium at the 2020 Pacific Orchid Exposition Show. It’s in spike, so I hope that it blooms in March or April. Posted below is a picture shot by Pierre himself, for reference:

[a-swiss-and-a-spaniard]

Hi darling! For the ask game 2, 8, 9, 15, 24 💜💜

Hi Toni, thanks for the numbers! 💙

2. which player would you think you'd be best friends with upon first meeting?

I think Domi. I'm an introvert, so it takes me a while to warm up to people, but he seems easy to talk to. He's smart and loves nature and I'm a biologist, so we could gush about random animal facts. I bet he would be an amazing hiking buddy as well! I was also a fan of boybands at one point, so he can blast his playlist during car rides and I would actually sing along. Plus I could learn some Austrian slang from him, which would be fun

8. which tournament has the prettiest trophy?

I prefer simple, clean designs, so my favorites are Shanghai, Paris and Miami

But I’m also in love with the pretty colors of the Los Cabos trophy

And it always cracks me up to think about it in Meddy's trophy jail lol

9. who's your favourite retired player?

I mean, I MEAN… don't know if you've heard about this Swiss man(? He had a quite prolific career; won a few Masters, got 20 Grand Slams, and went on to play his last match alongside his biggest rival. He appears smooth and suave, but he's a goofball at heart and turns into a giggling mess whenever Rafa is around(? Yeah, he'll always be my all time favorite

15. a new player you would want to succeed in the future?

I guess Ben Shelton seems nice(? Tbh I haven't followed him much but he gives off puppy energy (Fisher called him a border collie and I think that's accurate).

I haven't really gotten attached to new players other than Andrey, but he's not exactly 'new’ anymore lol

24. favourite match outfit?

Depends on the player, of course, but I will always love Rafa's sleeveless shirts. Particularly the bright pink one form AO 2020 <3

!!! But also: all-black looks 🔥

[schumi-nadal]

heyyy 20, 22 and 24 for the tennis ask :)

Hello there 💞

20. Best smile?

I already answered to this one but I will never get tired of saying Rafa 🥰

22. What was the happiest you felt when watching a match?

Already answered to this one too but there are so many moment moments I felt happy: AO final in 2022 is my favorite recent match, RG final 2022 too with papa Rafa and baby Casper, the US Open final in 2020 was so powerful (oh Domi, I miss you 😪), etc.

24. Favorite match outfit?

THIS ONE 100% 💖💖💖

(milly alcock, mulher cis, ela/dela) PREPARE TO GET STARSTRUCK! Acabamos de ver HEIDI BERNARDI passando pelo tapete vermelho! Com seus 22 anos, ela é uma ATRIZ conhecida pelos seus fãs por ser muito SINCERA E POSITIVA, embora há quem diga que nos bastidores ela possa ser bastante DESLEIXADA E BAGUNCEIRA. Você ouviu o que os tablóides andam dizendo sobre ele? Não? Ah, eu te conto! Estão dizendo que ELA É AMANTE DE UM ATOR MAIS VELHO E FAMOSO! Será que isso é verdade? Hm… esperamos que não comprometa os seus futuros projetos porque realmente gostamos de vê-lo no topo!

PROJETOS.

Best of Luck, Charlie (2003-2007, paródia de Good Luck, Charlie): HEIDI BERNARDI interpretou Charlie Dustin.

Indícios (2006, paródia de Sinais): HEIDI BERNARDI interpretou Bo Hill.

Menina viaja o Universo (2014-2017, paródia de Menina Conhece o mundo): HEIDI BERNARDI interpretou Ruby Mitchell.

Epiphany (desde 2020): HEIDI BERNARDI interpreta Alexa Howard.

Hawkeye (desde 2023): HEIDI BERNARDI interpreta Kate Bishop.

SPOTIFY + PINTEREST.

RESUMO: Heidi sempre esteve nas telinhas, apesar de, no início, ter focado em séries infantis, com Indícios como única exceção. Foi por um acaso que foi escalada para fazer Charlie Dustin, seus pais tinham os contatos certos e ela, bem, havia nascido no momento certo. Entretanto, Heidi nunca se deu bem com as telinhas, desleixada demais, bagunceira demais, desorganizada. Não uma má menina, não, mas aventureira de fato. Isso não a faz extrovertida, nem de longe, é fechada e quieta, porém positiva com aqueles que conhece e cria grande apreço. Indícios foi uma temática explorada quando criança e, bem, hoje, se for para ser sincera, prefere filmes de terror ou aqueles com um drama mais aprofundado, do que, de fato, histórias leves e animadas. Sua busca atual é em sair das séries e mergulhar de vez nos filmes, principalmente após a morte da mãe, que sonhava em vê-la estrela de filmes grandiosos, mas parece estar fadada aos episódios. De qualquer forma, tem ciência que é de sua vida aventureira, moleca e divertida, mas não menos discreta, que surgem os boatos de que é amante de um ator mais velho.

INFORMAÇÕES.

data de nascimento: 17 de novembro.

signo: escorpião.

altura: 1,68 m

CONEXÕES:

HEIDI, apesar da natureza despojada, é uma eterna romântica. MUSE A, por sua vez, é seu primeiro e, aparentemente, eterno crush. está difícil manter-se forte. (m/f/nb)

com MUSE B foi amizade ao primeiro olhar. se deram bem logo de primeira e HEIDI sabe que arranjou para si um parceiro para toda vida, principalmente em suas aventuras. (m/f/nb)

mais que amigas, friends. foi em um set de filmagem que MUSE C e HEIDI se conheceram e, desde então, não se largaram mais. algumas manchetes até mesmo suspeitam de tamanha proximidade. (f)

talvez seja por ser desleixada, ou bagunceira, até mesmo fechada demais. quem sabe seja o olhar de peixe morto de HEIDI ou uma paixão não compreendida? ninguém sabe o motivo pelo qual vivem se desentendo, mas HEIDI e MUSE D não podem estar no mesmo ambiente. (m/f/nb)

MUSE E carrega o posto de ter sido a primeira vez de HEIDI. pode ter sido vergonhoso, pode ter sido romântico, ninguém sabe. mas HEIDI não sabe onde se enfiar quando se encontram em eventos. (m/f/nb)

a perda da mãe fez com que HEIDI abrisse portas para que MUSE F se tornasse seu responsável não responsável. a diferença de idade é interessante, mas é para você que HEIDI corre nos momentos mais desesperadores. (m/f/nb)

Blog Post #3

New Zealand has no government religion and is very welcoming to all religions and diversity. During the 2018 census, 49% of New Zealanders classified themselves as not belonging to any religion. However, Christianity was the largest religious group among those who did identify with a faith. With this secular view of the world being very prominent in New Zealand, religious affiliation continues to decline.

While New Zealand is not very religious, it is still very common to celebrate religious traditions like Christmas and Easter. However, Māori still hold traditional religion very close. It is called Te Ao Māori, which is best described as a philosophy based on a connection to nature.

One major thing emphasized in Te Ao Māori is Tīkanga, which is what we would consider a conscience. Māori believe it was given to them by a higher power, like their ancestors guiding them from the afterlife. It is one of the key principles they follow and develop throughout life.

With New Zealand’s secular beliefs, social justice and human rights are prioritized. As I mentioned in Post 2, New Zealand legalized same-sex marriage and has one of the highest rates of people identifying as homosexual, as well as the highest percentage of LGBTQ+ government officials. Additionally, euthanasia was legalized in 2020. Both of these emphasize that New Zealand wants its people to make their own choices in alignment with their beliefs.

Attitudes toward death vary. Many New Zealanders see it as a natural part of life and focus more on celebrating life rather than mourning. Māori, however, practice tangihanga, where they tell stories and mourn for longer periods. This practice is one of the longest-lasting traditions. Even if a Māori person is Catholic, which is common, their funeral is still typically held in this traditional way.

New Zealand’s worldview is classified as secular, with its freedom to express religion and other identities, such as sexual orientation. Because of this, New Zealanders feel free to express themselves however they choose, without fear of persecution.

BST

STATUS: ativa desde 2019.

BST, também conhecido como Best Boys, é um grupo masculino sul-coreano formado pela empresa Great Hits Music em 2019. O grupo é composto por sete membros: Muse 1, Muse 2, Muse 3, Muse 4, Muse 5, Muse 6 e Muse 7. BST conquistou o sucesso internacional rapidamente, quebrando recordes mundiais, e suas conquistas levaram o grupo a ser o número um na lista Forbes Korea Power Celebrity em 2022, que classifica as celebridades mais poderosas e influentes da Coreia do Sul. Eles competem diretamente com o Big Time Dimension para a boyband mais popular do mundo e devido ao seu sucesso no Ocidente, atualmente os membros do BST se encontram nos Estados Unidos gravando um disco internacional com músicas em inglês para ser lançado em solo americano.

Eles competem diretamente com o Big Time Dimension para a boyband mais popular do mundo, o que gera muitas brigas entre os seus fandoms. Mas a maior briga de fandoms do BST é, provavelmente, com o fandom do PINKISH.

Devido ao sucesso internacional, os membros do BST foram vistos comprando dois andares de cobertura em um dos prédios mais luxuosos de Los Angeles em 2024. Aparentemente, é onde eles ficam quando estão nos Estados Unidos, morando juntos no local.

Não fique de fora das bênçãos de Deus

Se vocês estiverem dispostos a obedecer,

comerão os melhores frutos desta terra;

- Isaías 1:19

Deus deseja derramar Suas bênçãos sobre nós. Ele tem promessas de paz, prosperidade e alegria para aqueles que seguem Sua vontade. No entanto, muitas vezes, deixamos de viver essas bênçãos porque nos afastamos de Sua palavra ou hesitamos em obedecer ao que Ele nos pede.

Não se trata apenas de receber coisas materiais, mas de experimentar a plenitude da presença de Deus em todas as áreas da nossa vida. Quando nos alinhamos com os propósitos de Deus e confiamos Nele de todo o coração, somos conduzidos a um lugar de paz e segurança. Mesmo nos momentos difíceis, sabemos que Ele está conosco, cuidando de cada detalhe.

O segredo para não ficar de fora das bênçãos de Deus é estar disposto a ouvir e obedecer. Pode não ser fácil, e muitas vezes nos sentimos tentados a seguir nossos próprios caminhos. Mas é exatamente quando entregamos tudo nas mãos do Senhor que Ele abre portas que jamais imaginamos.

Portanto, não permita que as distrações ou o medo impeçam você de viver tudo o que Deus preparou. Busque-O em oração, leia Sua Palavra e confie que Ele fará o melhor por você. As bênçãos de Deus estão disponíveis para todos que escolhem andar em Seus caminhos. Deus te abençoe!

Não fique de fora!

>Obedeça à Palavra de Deus: Leia a Bíblia e siga os ensinamentos com fé e perseverança.

>Tenha uma vida de oração: Converse com Deus diariamente, buscando direção e entregando suas preocupações nas mãos Dele.

>Confie em Deus: Confie plenamente em Sua vontade, mesmo quando as circunstâncias parecem difíceis ou incertas.

Para orar:

Senhor Deus, entrego minha vida em Tuas mãos. Ajuda-me a Te obedecer e confiar em Teus planos. Fortalece minha fé e guia meus passos para que eu não perca as bênçãos que preparaste para mim. Que Tua vontade se cumpra sempre em minha vida. Em nome de Jesus, amém!

No amor de Cristo, Graça e Paz!

Don't miss out on God's blessings

If you are willing to obey,

you will eat the best fruits of this land;

- Isaiah 1:19

God wants to pour out His blessings on us. He has promises of peace, prosperity, and joy for those who follow His will. However, many times, we fail to experience these blessings because we stray from His word or hesitate to obey what He asks of us.

It is not just about receiving material things, but about experiencing the fullness of God's presence in all areas of our lives. When we align ourselves with God's purposes and trust Him with all our hearts, we are led to a place of peace and security. Even in difficult times, we know that He is with us, taking care of every detail.

The secret to not missing out on God's blessings is to be willing to listen and obey. It may not be easy, and we are often tempted to follow our own path. But it is precisely when we surrender everything into the Lord’s hands that He opens doors we never imagined.

Therefore, do not allow distractions or fear to prevent you from living all that God has prepared. Seek Him in prayer, read His Word and trust that He will do the best for you. God’s blessings are available to all who choose to walk in His ways. God bless you!

Don’t be left out!

>Obey God’s Word: Read the Bible and follow its teachings with faith and perseverance.

>Have a life of prayer: Talk to God daily, seeking guidance and surrendering your concerns into His hands.

>Trust God: Trust fully in His will, even when circumstances seem difficult or uncertain.

To pray:

Lord God, I surrender my life into Your hands. Help me to obey You and trust in Your plans. Strengthen my faith and guide my steps so that I do not lose the blessings that You have prepared for me. May Your will always be fulfilled in my life. In the name of Jesus, amen!

In the love of Christ, Grace and Peace!
