[CHINESE]:
“My desire to cross the Yellow River is stopped by frozen water.
An attempt to go up Mount Taihang is frustrated by snow.
In my leisure time, I go fishing on shore in greenish water.
Suddenly I’m dreaming while riding a boat sailing near the sun…
The road is tough! It’s very tough!
It branches out into many other paths. Where am I now…”
As Victor pulls on the rope, he silently recites these verses in his heart.
He should have no problems in the upcoming Chinese class dictation test.
–
[Tidbits]: The poem Victor rehearses here is a very famous piece by a Tang Dynasty poet Li Bai, who was exiled from the imperial court. The poem expresses his disappointment, frustration, as well as hopefulness.
–
[CHEMISTRY]:
The chemistry teacher has always been the most well-liked among everyone because she never goes beyond the scheduled time for classes. However, Victor knows that it’s only because she is too busy as the curriculum coordinator.
—
[ENGLISH]:
As the lecturer imparts grammar lessons systematically, Victor subconsciously thinks that this usually quirky and enthusiastic young man is, in fact, an outstanding teacher.
However, when there are only ten minutes left until the end of the class and the other party complacently launches a new English trivia activity, Victor withdraws his opinion.
—
[PHYSICS]:
“After reviewing everyone’s test scores, I must say you guys are indeed the lowest-performing batch I’ve ever taught.”
Knitting his brows into a frown, Victor looks at the exam paper in his hand with a score of 92, contemplating how he needs to work harder to achieve a higher score next time.
—
[MATH]:
“Who wants to come to the blackboard and solve this function?”
The classroom lapses into silence, everyone avoiding eye contact with the teacher. Victor has never been the one to deliberately draw the spotlight to himself, so he begins contemplating his solution while remaining seated.
Looking at the answer on his paper, Victor casually shifts his gaze ahead and twirls his pen. Even if Old Gao catches him, it won’t be a big deal.
“Someone come to board and solve this problem? Did you guys not understand what I said?”
“Sigh, such indifference. Zheng Xi, come up here and explain this on my behalf.”
—
[MATH]:
“Surely, one of our friends will come up to the board and solve this problem, right?”
The classroom sinks into silence, the eyes of everyone darting around. Victor, who always naturally keeps his eyes straight ahead, now lowers his head ever so slightly—— of course, he has lowered his head just a little bit.
He’s also unsure about this problem.
“Vic, the teacher can feel your enthusiasm from here.”
“Step forward and demonstrate your skills.”
—
[BIOLOGY]:
The gentle tone, calm and steady, without any ups and downs, evenly erodes the determination of each student.
Therefore, it’s often the case that teachers who are overly gentle can be quite frightening.
—
[BIOLOGY]:
As Victor holds the chalk and marks how the distribution of plants is influenced by geographical locations, he sneaks in a quiet yawn, away from everyone’s view with his back to the class. Only God knows how long he’s been holding it in.
But it’s also good, at least answering a question can liven things up a bit. He can work on today’s biology homework during the second half of the class.
I got no faith that AC Jade won't be Orientalist. It's another one of those western games that want to imitate Cdramas but will probably fall into the white idea of what ancient China is (stares in mulan 2020).
On a related note -- I love Shao Jun as a character, but you can hear that she's voiced by a white woman with a caricaturist's accent a million miles away.
Being ace has never been a question for me. I didn’t get the maybe I’m wrong feeling that a lot of people seem to. 15!year old me saw my friend gushing about her new crush went well that looks exhausting and anoying. How bout I just don’t :/ and then I didn’t! Nearly 20 years later and I’m still very firmly ace lol. Never had a single doubt about it
the most interesting thing to me abt the pjo disney show is the way that the writing has matured. like the themes and ideas from the book are present, they're just so much more elevated.
this has always been a family story.
the kids are just scared kids. they want their parents attention, approval, and, maybe theyll never let themselves say it, they want their love. but the olympians are gods. theyre literally and figuratively above it all. like athena punishing annabeth for letting percy send medusa's head to olympus? genius. athena didnt even send the message herself, but the meaning was still clear. you will pay for your disobedience, silly mortal.
so who are these kids left to meet from the olympian world? the "monsters" who also desperately want attention.
Since I have a second PC available now I started looking into emulating AAI2 and this shit seems way easier than I though lol, not gonna lie I am very excited
I don't want to but I'm considering moving to discord. Being yelled at for my content is not good for my mental health. I really don't want to. I enjoy interacting with all of you. It would suck for one person to ruin the enjoyment of many, but man does it hurt.
I don't like upsetting anyone. My people pleasing nature is going to be the end of me.
I love how AC Valhalla was a chance to delve deeper into the histories of pre-existing characters like Juhani Otso Berg, Ratohnhaké:ton and Ziio, and Shay Patrick Cormac. And yet --
