I've been wanting to create a logo using my name "NING" for a long time. Finally, I've made five different variations! I'm not entirely sure which one should be the main logo, but I'm leaning toward the smiley or the chat bubble. If you have any feedback or comments, please let me know. (I'm also working on perfecting my personal color scheme, but it will be something similar to what I've shared.

The main reason I recently updated my online profiles and started sharing more about my life is to prevent Arc Browser's "Browse for Me" from generating a summary using my name as the CEO of a company I created for a student project 🙄 I uploaded the slides online, and Arc kept bringing it up repeatedly. They don’t even care about my social media information and go straight to a made-up presentation!

One of the best parts of these past few months has been witnessing how Scribbles has evolved during this short period of time. I feel a surge of excitement every time a new feature pops up on my blog, especially when it's something I personally requested! I'm thrilled for new users to experience the joy of simple blogging like this. Scribbles for life!!

Godzilla vs. Kong: The New Empire is a total blast if you're into giant monster showdowns. The story itself made no sense at all, but it's still entertaining as hell. Although, for a moment, I felt like I was watching Planet of the Apes. They should have made a crossover with Caesar at this point, lol. ✉️ Reply by email

This quarter, I have begun incorporating plyometric training to enhance my power, strengthen my tendons, and reduce the risk of injuries. Additionally, I have started training dips with the aspiration of achieving a muscle-up someday. I follow my structured workout routine focusing on full-body training for 2 hours a day, 2 days a week. Here's a breakdown of my routine for this period:Workout A In this session, the emphasis is on lower body skills followed by hypertrophy training for the upper body.

After careful consideration, I have decided to create a new blog--Life of Ning Magazine--focusing solely on my personal life. The intention is to keep it semi-public, hence I will not include RSS feeds like my other blogs, nor will I cross-post to my main site, which already has RSS set up. However, I will feature it on the Scribbles Explore page to crowd it out, so people would check the page more often lol.

⭐️ One Line for 2024-03-25: Finding group photos of old friends makes me feel nostalgic about the past, while tinkering and planning about blogging makes me feel hopeful about the future. Polaroids from the past I just found the photos of me and my friends from junior high school. I didn’t even remember that I was a photography enthusiast that young. I lost touch with almost all of them, but looking at these photos brought back the good times.

While I enjoy writing on Musing with Ning, I also crave a more laid-back approach to explore a variety of topics. Ning’s Notebook will delve into my thoughts on wellness, movies, books, tech, and occasionally my personal life. I’m still considering writing a weekly note or even a one-line-a-day note here. We’ll see how it goes.

“The Iron Claw” was a truly heart-wrenching story. They fought tooth and claw, desperate for even a mere of recognition that should already have been granted to them from the start. The pain they endured would have been unbearable for anyone. The final scene hit so hard, especially with the song of “Live That Way Forever” playing in the end.

It totally summed up the tone of this movie. You felt the pain and the hope they were all craving in this song.
💻I have been paying for #Obsidian Sync for 3 months and haven’t used it! I wanted to switch from iCloud, but then I saw the warning and forgot about it until now. LOL
Can anyone tell me what’s the best practice here? Is it possible to sync the #ObsidianSync vault to iCloud? Hazel app, maybe?

Love Lies Bleeding is like an imaginary dream of a queer love story. And I'm all for it! This movie has everything - from family drama, romance, comedy, crime, violence, thriller, horror, and muscles! The intense atmosphere filled with manic energy contrasted perfectly with the humor, and I absolutely loved it! Additionally, everyone looked incredibly sexy and cool in this film. What’s not to love, am I right? P.S. This movie inspired me to hit the gym and lift more weights from now on lol.

Have you ever wondered if we’re just a cocoon, believing we can already fly? This question struck me after watching “May December.”The emotional and sensitive subjects addressed in the film, coupled with the powerful performances of the cast, evoked a discomfort that made it hard not to look away. People don’t like to talk about uncomfortable matters, so they often try to brush them off to feel better about themselves.

You'd be surprised how 'Godzilla Minus One,' featuring one giant monster, can bring out humanity in the most beautiful way possible. While Godzilla may appear cool to viewers, the film, from a human perspective, demonstrates the terrifying threat it poses to those who must confront it. Throughout the movie, moments of hope shine through seemingly dire situations, showcasing the power of unity and cooperation in the face of disaster.

I have to say, this satire was on point and felt incredibly “raw” and “important”. LOL On a more serious note, I found the cinematography to be somewhat lackluster and I felt like it dragged down the emotional impact of some key scenes. Additionally, I feel that the screenplay could have used a bit more punch to really drive home its message.
