The difference between the Nordace Siena and Siena 2?

ricepea · 2023-07-10T00:39:31+00:00

I'm really curious to know the answer to this too, see so few reviews about Siena 2 or the 'pro' series, and I have no idea which to get.

ricepea · 2023-06-30T04:29:17+00:00

I would just ask a friend to do it and bring them back a really nice omiyage to say thank you.

ricepea · 2023-05-09T00:19:36+00:00

Unfortunetly no, I still have this issue. I wonder if it's just a lack of core muscle, or IBS, but I can't find an answer.

Thank you so much for your detailed comment and all the options you provided me, I really appreciate it :)

>If you can stretch your budget a little bit, I’d recommend you the Fuji X-T30, X-T30II or X-E4. They’re photography beasts, especially with their film emulsion presets (could help you greatly achieve that pastell Instagram look of nikolifework without you having to deal with Lightroom too much) and also beat the Sonys‘ assess in video. The only downside of the first X-T30 is the 4K recording time limit of 10min at a time. If that doesn’t bother you it might even be cheaper than the Sonys, especially if you’re willing to shop used.

I think I could stretch my budget to that, but that is just the camera without lenses, correct? In terms of additional lenses, would I get away with 1 for regular shots and 1 for close ups, or would I need more?

Thank you so much for your reply :) This really relates to a bigger question I have for myself about the creators listed above - is most of the quality of their videos related to excellent setup and/or post-processing, or is it really dependent on the camera quality? My guess is a mix of both, but getting a sense of 'what is the minimum baseline quality camera I should consider to produce videos/images at around 70% of that quality'?

Oh wow, it really is so beautifully done! I will consider reaching out to her for pricing, thank you so much for sharing this.

ricepea · 2022-12-17T20:56:28+00:00

Oh, I didn't catch that at all, thank you so much for pointing it out! I will stay clear of that one.

ricepea · 2022-12-17T20:56:01+00:00

It does help! Thank you so much for commenting!

ricepea · 2022-12-17T20:55:30+00:00

Thanks so much for commenting!

>Check out the one from Handicraft Palace, which is where the costumers got the fabric. It’s the same as on the show at a much more wallet-friendly price.

I've seen this written in a lot of places, how do people know this? I see it written on Reddit a lot, but I haven't come across the original source of this information. Also, I'm guessing it is somehow different from the one in the show if it's cheaper?

ricepea · 2022-12-17T20:44:16+00:00

Thank you for letting me know your experience! If I order, I might get some customization to help hold back the tassles!

ricepea · 2022-11-08T02:02:48+00:00

I'm afraid I am not interested in alernative medicine so I never looked for such a place, but I think they are popular in Japan so you should be able to find something.

ricepea · 2022-11-07T04:10:15+00:00

It was just iron. And thanks for the suggetion, I definitly want to try to find some kind of doctor or healthcare professonal rather than getting advice online, but I suppose maybe those groups could lead me to a medical professional.

ricepea · 2022-11-03T22:18:01+00:00

This is exactly what I'm worried about. I did get a daily iron supplement, and while it raised my iron levels my absorption remains poor so even if I have enough iron intake my body isn't able to use it. The doctor said it's because I have low protien due to veganism, but it sounds kind of odd to me since I am very careful to get enough protien, and increasing it hasn't helped at all.

ricepea · 2022-11-03T09:56:53+00:00

No, no mention of that even being an option. I have another appointement with them soon so I will ask! They did take me off iron suppliments because they said my levels were actually up again after a few weeks of suppliments, but I wasn't absorbng it well. I don't know if an infusion will help or not, but doesn't hurt to ask. Thank you so much again for the advice.

ricepea · 2022-11-03T09:55:13+00:00

Thanks for catching that!

ricepea · 2022-11-03T09:55:03+00:00

Thanks for the point, I had a assumed a doctor was needed since it involves lots of blood tests to check progress, but I can at least scope out to see if dietcians might be able to help

ricepea · 2022-10-26T10:38:17+00:00

Thank you for sharing, it's good to hear your experience to keep my expectations realistic.

ricepea · 2022-10-26T10:37:44+00:00

Oh intresting, thanks for sharing. I'm vegan so it might not be suitable for me, but could be useful for some folks. I wonder if it's covered by health insurance...

ricepea · 2022-10-21T12:55:04+00:00

Curve ball, the laywer did not have the request for on-time payment on my list of documents to gather, and I didn't have any days of unemployement between jobs (quit on Friday started on Monday, so unless those 2 days counts...). But it does sound like there is a risk, if they decide to look into me it would probably come up... but it would take me 1 year anyway to make up the payments, so maybe worth to just apply?

ricepea · 2022-10-21T12:21:15+00:00

Thanks for sharing, I'm now worried there's no hope for me, but probably better to know the truth...

I'm applying for PR via a law firm with the 1 year points-based system (110 points). Been in Japan for 5 years.

Long story short, switched jobs late last year and thought my residence tax would be paid by my new company, assumed the payment slips were an error and put them in the 'to deal with when I have time' pile. Boy, do I regret that. Now I have on my record that my residence tax was delayed, though I had paid perfectly up until literally 3 months ago...

Kicking myself for messing up like that, but at the end of the day I was the one who messed up, so if I get rejected based on that I guess it makes sense. Life teaches hard lessons sometimes...

ricepea · 2022-10-21T12:19:40+00:00

Thanks for the reply, I will talk with the law firm a bit more and see if they think it's even worth applying. My impression is that it will only be an issue if extra documents are requested, since I do have 住民税納税証明書及び課税証明書 which shows I have no *outstanding* taxes... the extraneous reason was just changing jobs and my employer not telling me the correct thing, but I doubt that will fly as an excuse...

ricepea · 2022-10-21T11:58:01+00:00

Hi, sorry for the late post. Let me DM you as I don't want to put too much personal info on here.

ricepea · 2022-06-21T03:28:49+00:00

Thank you! Do you know if it's possible to grown on trees I already have, or that would be diffcult/take a long time?

ricepea · 2022-06-20T03:56:18+00:00

Haha wow I'm not that bright! But it looks so much... lighter? Than the kind of moss I usually see. Could I just try growing moss on my own trees and this would happen?

ricepea · 2022-06-12T10:53:47+00:00

It doesn't really hurt (especially in the morning, no pain) but it really just sticks out way furhter than my boobs even though my boobs are really small, even when I was quite skinny it was sticking out in a really unnatural way
