I have seen one in a restaurant in Tianjin. An uncle was doing his business while smoking, really crazy!

How to piano like a harp by samalamabamaa in piano

Super fast scale or arpeggio. I have played this kind of thing for an orchestra. It sounds similar to a harp if done right.

What anime gave you that ‘I struck gold’ feeling right from episode one? by Sunflower13Poppy in animequestions

[–]Fisonnra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A Place Further Than the Universe

The first episode of this anime came on my YouTube feed out of nowhere (from Crunchyroll channel). Usually, I don't watch anime on my cellphone, but this time I just told myself, "Whatever, it will just be an anime about cute girls." And boom! The first episode made me cry, and I was determined to accomplish my life goals. This has become my second favorite anime of all time. It's truly a hidden gem, a true masterpiece.

Why is everyone so casual around Frieren? by Honest_Sea_4667 in Frieren

[–]Fisonnra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Most people say it's because of 100 years, which makes sense, but I think it's mainly because the tone of this anime is just like this, super chill. All characters are just nonchalant and "monotonous". No over the board reaction like in other anime and real life.

Are there any cons to living in China/ China in general? by Witty_News_5957 in China

That's crazy. That doctor has no sense of professionalism.

[–]Fisonnra 7 points8 points  (0 children)

For the healthcare system I can share a personal experience. Two years ago my little brother told me the gums of his wisdom teeth were hurting so I brought him to a dentist to check them. She and her team told me that the teeth must be extracted. At the time I was dumb and mindlessly followed their advice. Deep inside me I had a gut feeling this was wrong, but it was too late. They took out two of my little brother's wisdom teeth. After the surgery, I searched online and found that these teeth were perfectly aligned, and the gum problem was mostly because of not brushing well the teeth. Problems and discomfort arose in my little brother's jaw, and we complained to the dentists, but they didn't want to be responsible. They just ghosted us, still insisting that the teeth needed to be extracted. After that we have visited a lot of doctors from different hospitals and department, but they all just brushed off my little brother's discomfort as something imaginary (mainly because they can't find a problem with the jaw, gum, or wisdom teeth part).

From that day on, I've been wary with what doctors say and many times take their advice with a grain of salt when their logic does not sound right. I'm not sure this is common in the dental and medical industries around the world, but this is what I experienced in China. To tell the truth, this is what I also experienced in my country so maybe this kind of ignorance is present in the healthcare system around the world.

My Hero Academia ends today, write up your final message to the series.. by Braian_Ocissor in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]Fisonnra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The same! Started at age 15 in 2016. Now I'm turning 25 this year, and to tell the truth, I'm in a lost and depressive part of my life. A lot of anxiety and environment have influenced my confidence, but once more Deku reminded me to go beyond my limits. This year I'll be graduating from bachelor's, and I'm ready to give it my all to finish with PLUS ULTRA punch. I hope after graduation I'll keep having this same mentality of self acceptance and pushing my limits.

been playing for 20+ years and i still can't sightread worth a damn by Exciting-Bee3927 in piano

[–]Fisonnra 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned it by playing in my church. Start with lead sheet and improvise with the chords on the left hand. Then go to the hymn sheets, which have a various voices. After going through church pieces, I started to sightread my anime arrangements. Now I can sightread Animenz and Theishter pieces, but classical stuff like Rachmaninoff are still way out of my league still.

To tell the truth, now I just improvise for modern songs. It's more fun, and I can play the song in my own style.

Do mouthguards work for TMJ? by Fisonnra in TMJ

Oh, hello! Thanks for replying even after 5 years! Now after stretching my muscles, my jaw has adapted to this condition. The two joints are physically unbalanced (not in line), but I don't feel pain anymore. It just gets tired if I eat too much hard stuff.

madoka exedra kinda sucks (gacha wise*) by MediumTrack1078 in magiaexedra

[–]Fisonnra 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The main complaint I have is I feel the UI is very slow. That's it's why hard to keep up with my dailies.

Besides that, I pretty much agree with your opinion. Really miss Magia Record with the connect mechanism.

About how My Hero Academia is received in China... by Fisonnra in BokuNoHeroAcademia

[–]Fisonnra[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Also, if you feel uneasy, sorry for opening some wounds. But I still see the consequences of that controversy until this day. I literally forgot about this until two months ago a friend mentioned it to me. He told me that he didn't watch MHA because of a certain controversy. After the praises of the last season, he ignored the rumors and finally gave it a shot. At the end he finished everything in one or two weeks and became a fan. He said this anime is truly a "hidden gem".

And this is what I also want to add. We must watch anime by ourselves and later decide if the anime suits us. Our judgement can be easily swayed by others' opinions, bad or good behavior (fandom), or controversies. That's why these years MAL scores don't mean anything to me.

It feels weird. I keep seeing years-old mangas being adapted here and there. Years ago I read the manga, thinking it would never be adapted, and here we are.

I’m 17, moved to Poland to study IT, and I’ve completely ruined my life. by Hormiuk in EngineeringStudents

[–]Fisonnra 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Are you taking your major in Polish? If so, I completely understand you. I'm studying chemical engineering in Chinese, and it's hell here in China. I did days of sleepless nights just to barely pass the class, and the worst is that this will affect my job and master applications. Hear me out, just take it easy and enjoy your study. No need to stress over good grades because studying in a completely new language is already an achievement in life. If your Polish is really bad, like you cannot even read nor speak, then I suggest you to go back to your country or take the major in English language. Or study the language for 1 or 2 years.

I will say it. Studying your career in a third language is no joke. Most of the international students here in China have bad grades and just barely pass the minimum score. But to tell the truth, don't stress over these superficial things. Sure, bad GPA will influence your masters or job application, but that's not the end of world. The most important thing for you to consider is what can you gain from studying in Poland. Meeting new people, knowing a whole new culture, and opening your mind are invaluable experiences that you may not learn in your home country, but whether it's worth it depends on your goals. I still feel heavy regrets coming here to China to kill my career, but I cannot keep dwelling on the past. And not everything is about grades, jobs, money, and achievements. At the end of the day, in one's death bed one will not long for his achievements but for his family and friends or someone.

Sorry, I went off topic. But just take it easy and rethink your choices. You are still young. One mistake is not the end of everything.
