[beyourselfchulanmaria]

【Part I】our old team of church friends children's wedding party then we're meet together again

It's a pity and misfortune because my foot (n leg) injury has not healed, so I can't go down to the Miscanthus (silvergrass) Flower Sea. I can only sit on the shore to wait friends walked back and enjoy the breeze not bad too. ღ˘⌣˘ღ Lan~*

你所愛的一切都不會失去。 並非真的。 人、事、物～～遲早都會消失的。 你無法握住他們，就像你無法握住月光一樣。 不過若是他們觸動了你，倘若他們已在你體內，那麼他們仍然是你的。 你唯一真正擁有的東西是那些你藏在心裡的東西。

Nothing you love is lost. Not really. Things, people—they always go away, sooner or later. You can't hold them, any more than you can hold moonlight. But if they've touched you, if they're inside you, then they're still yours. The only things you ever really have are the ones you hold inside your heart.

Hello everyone!!

I noticed that I gained a lot of new followers recently, and I realized I haven’t really made a post introducing myself like ever lol so I brain dumped 50 random facts about me and hopefully you guys know me better! ^-^

My name is Angela, but I also go by Ang/Angie/Leighann

I’m currently 22! I was born in 1997 (Chinese zodiac is year of the Rat since I was born before the Lunar New Year)

i’m quite short at 4′11″

My Myers-Briggs is INFJ

For those into Astrology: Aquarius sun, Sagittarius moon, Cancer rising

I just graduated last month from UCSB as a psych major with a minor in English literature!

Born and raised in the Bay Area ❤ Hoping to live in SF someday!

I’m ethnically Chinese/Dutch, but both my parents are from Taiwan

I have a HUGE birthmark from my ankle to my thigh (it’s insane haha but it faded a lot throughout the years)

I have 8 piercings! All in my ears (6 lobes, 1 tragus, 1 helix)

Only countries I been to: U.S., Mexico, China, Taiwan. Top of my bucket list include: Iceland, Santorini, Japan, South Korea!

I guess I’m bi? Still figuring it out tbh. But guys my type include: Doctor Mike, Andre Hamann, Nick Bateman. girls my type: Hyoyeon, Seulgi, Maggie Q, Lucy Liu

My fav (American) TV shows are: OITNB, Grey’s Anatomy, Burn Notice, and FRIENDS

My fav movie is Breakfast at TIffany’s

I listen to a lot of indie/alternative (Foster the People, Lana Del Rey, Naked and Famous, Mumford & Sons), kpop (right now loving Red Velvet, SNSD and Gfriend), and classic 60s - 80s (Beatles, Motown, Frank Sinatra, etc.)

I got into kpop in 2009 but stopped listening around 2013-2016 and started again in 2017. My ult kpop group is pROoOBably SNSD and my (ult) bias is Hyoyeon ❤ PLEASE STAN HER AND LISTEN TO HER NEW SINGLE BADSTER WHEN IT COMES OUT JULY 20 6PM KST!!

I was raised Catholic but now I am spiritual but not religious. I believe in constantly working on becoming a better person and doing good.

My fav colors are: black, white, most shades of light pink, turquoise (or TIffany blue), and recently I’ve been obsessed with yellow! I can’t pick a single one!

My favorite time of day is prob dawn but I haven’t been awake for it in years lol. I do love twilight too because it gives me a weird nostalgic feeling

I speak English and proficient-fluent Mandarin (I prob can’t have a deep conversation about economics or politics or something lol but I grew up speaking it with my parents 24/7). I also took 4 years of Japanese in high school (but i prob forgot most of it welp). I’m going to relearn Japanese/Mandarin and hopefully start learning Korean sometime in the near future! I know the alphabet and some basics from my countless of hours watching kdramas lol

If you’re one of my female friends, I will melt if you call me these: angel, sweetie, beautiful, babe, hun, etc!!

I try to avoid mainstream things that are talked about too much because I really believe that things are overhyped and people can lose their identity by liking things just because other people are. (no hate, but e.g. BTS, Ariana Grande, Game of Thrones, Beyonce).

I LOVEEE receiving and giving handwritten letters

Speaking of, I change my handwriting every few years since I haven’t really found one that stuck yet and I have like 5 different types of handwriting from all caps to very neat print to almost calligraphy-like cursive

27 is my favorite number but I really do not know why lmao

My guilty pleasure song is Britney Spears - Toxic and I still haven’t gotten sick of it. Some favorite songs of all time are prob: Aretha Franklin - Day Dreaming, Tears for Fears - Everybody Wants to Rule the World, SNSD - Gee, SNSD - Genie, Amy Winehouse - Valerie

My best subject at school was English and I received an academic excellence award at the end of my junior year out of all the juniors in my grade in American Lit

When I was younger, my first dream job was an artist. then I watched Grey’s and wanted to be a cardiothoracic surgeon. Other dream jobs I had for brief moments: makeup artist, fashion designer, motivational speaker. Now I’m hoping to go to grad school to be an MFT/LPCC!

I love black cats and german shepherds! But I’m more of a cat person

If I could travel back in time I would want to live in 60′s New York or the 90′s.

Biggest turn on: someone who can hold a deep and intellectual conversation with me about meaningful subjects! Biggest turn off: someone who is extremely vapid and has no ambition whatsoever

My fav season is autumn!

The perfume I use is Marc Jacobs Daisy but I think I want to change to Versace Bright Crystal after I finish

I have perfect vision!

I did track during my prime teenage days (long jumper!) and my fastest mile was 7:20. I haven’t ran for years after that and I just started again 7 years later around this March, and I improved from around a 10 min mile in the beginning to my recent fastest at 8:09! I am hoping to get back in the ~7 mins

I also did a little bit of swim team, and I can swim all four strokes (free, back, breast, butterfly) but I mainly raced freestyle and butterfly!

I am literally the least picky eater you will ever meet. Take me to any restaurant and I wouldn’t complain. I also have a decently high tolerance for spicy things. The only food that I ever really tried and disliked is liver and the one thing that I probably wouldn’t ever try is something way out there like snail or scorpion lol

Speaking of food, I love food on the heavier side and tend to over season and over-sauce my foods lol. I love onion, ketchup, ranch, black pepper, soy sauce, korean chili spice (what they use for kimchi)

I can crack all my toes at will (it grosses everyone out xD)

My favorite book of all time is East of Eden by John Steinbeck ❤

My super power of choice if I had one would probably be invisibility

I played piano for 6 years in my childhood and I can still read notes, but veeery slowly lol

I’m kind of VERY unhealthily obsessed with (Japanese) stationery. Moleskine journals, Uni alpha gel, Pilot Dr. Grip, Zebra Mildliners, Staedler Triplus fineliners, Sakura Microns, Uni-ball signo, Pilot Hi-tec-c... yeah... i have all of those and more... yiKEs

My fav holiday is Christmas. I love holiday spirit and Sleigh Ride (I only accept the Ella Fitzgerald version) is literally such a good song??

My favorite non alcoholic drink is prob earl grey boba tea. fav alcoholic drink is whiskey!

I do not have any tattoos, but the top two I am planning are: “♒” behind my left ear, and “英” behind my neck (my mom’s Chinese name, but it also means brave/hero/outstanding person)

city > countryside

How I would describe my fashion style: tomboy, casual, chic, comfortable

INTERVIEW_06

Lee　Weiying

Countries & Regions / Taiwan

1. JOB DESCRIPTION

I contribute to improve people’s health around the world in a diverse environment

I work in the export department of a medical equipment and pharmaceutical manufacturer, where I am responsible for export procedures, inventory management, and handling trade-related expenses. Our clients are from all over the world, such as the U.S., the Netherlands, China, Hong Kong, Taiwan, Australia, India, and South Africa. It’s so enjoyable to communicate with people from various countries. As a foreign-affiliated company, we also have employees of various nationalities. There is an atmosphere of mutual respect　regardless of gender or culture. Each person’s results and contributions are also properly evaluated during personnel evaluation. The company also proactively supports the development of our skills. For example, we can take free online lessons if we wish. While the whole world is suffering from the COVID-19 pandemic, we can contribute to the health of people around the world by delivering our products. This is why I try to deliver our products accurately and swiftly. It's an extremely rewarding job, and I enjoy my job as I can feel my growth daily.

2. REASON FOR RELOCATING IN SHIZUOKA PREFECTURE

The extraordinary of Tokyo life becomes part of everyday life here. Shopping is convenient, and there are plenty of opportunities to flourish at your job.

I have always loved Japanese anime and studied Japanese in my home country. I came to Tokyo on a working holiday visa because I wanted to talk to many Japanese people. I met my husband during this period, and we both moved to Shizuoka Prefecture. I had visited Shizuoka a few times, but I never thought I would live here one day. When I first moved to Shizuoka, I was always excited because I could see Mt. Fuji from anywhere. Now that I'm used to it, I greet it every day just like my family. It has become a part of my daily life.

Although I used to think that Shizuoka was a countryside, my impression of Shizuoka has changed drastically after settling here. There are many large commercial buildings near our house, and the Gotemba Premium Outlet is only a 30-minute drive away, so we have nothing to worry about.

As for job searching, I registered with several major recruiting companies and was introduced to my current company. Many manufacturers in the prefecture are operating their business globally. This was something I was oblivious about until I came to Shizuoka. I believe there are many opportunities for people who are not Japanese to use our language and communication skills in the business world in Shizuoka.

3. ATTRACTIVE QUALITIES OF LIVING IN SHIZUOKA

You can easily enjoy Shizuoka in various ways depending on your mood of the day

One of the attractive points of Shizuoka is that there are so many ways to enjoy the prefecture. It has all the conveniences of a city but is also close to the mountains and the ocean, with many outdoor activities offering rich experiences. There are many places where you can try horseback riding, diving, camping, or taking a tandem paragliding flight to see Mt. Fuji and the city of Shizuoka from the sky. The seafood is delicious because of its proximity to the sea and is especially renowned for its eel. Each season offers you a different way to enjoy the area. My favorite places to visit are the Kawazu cherry blossoms in the spring, the sea in Atami in the summer, the autumn foliage in Sumata Gorge, and hot spring in Izu in the winter. When I lived in Tokyo, I had to prepare any outdoor activities by checking traffic information and making reservations well in advance. However, since moving to Shizuoka, I can talk with my family over breakfast, asking, "Where should we go today?" We decide where to go depending on the weather and how we feel that day. This is only possible if you think about it because there are so many places to enjoy nearby. The fact that you can go to these places so easily without much hassle might also be one of Shizuoka’s attractive qualities.

4. MESSAGE

If you desire to live at your own pace, please start by visiting Shizuoka to have fun

Access to the capital city of Tokyo is very convenient. It takes only an hour by bullet train from our house to go to Tokyo. The pace of life is relaxed, and the people are kind and helpful. I don't think there are many foreign nationals in the area where I live, but maybe that's why there are so many people interested in me. We often have fun "international exchange" conversations as people are interested in many different things, everything from the climate of my home country, Taiwan, to the latest trends such as tapioca milk tea and castella sponge cake. I’m enjoying my daily life here as I keep making more friends.

I recommend living in Shizuoka if you're tired of the fast pace and stress of the city, or if you'd like to live in a city that is like in the middle of a city and nature. I am reminded again that to see Mt. Fuji every day is a great luxury. I feel rejuvenated daily having untouched nature close to my life. If you have even a slight interest in living here, please start by visiting Shizuoka to have fun. If you see me on the street, please say hello.

The Bride, the Groom and the Greek Sunset: A Perfect Wedding Picture

SANTORINI, Greece — The bride wore a sparkling tiara and a flowing red wedding gown, her fifth matrimonial ensemble of the day. The groom wore a silver tuxedo and the fatigued look of a guy who had spent the last dozen hours posing for pictures.

The photographer gave instructions. Re-enact the proposal on bended knee. Twirl in the dress. Kiss the bride’s hand.

But it was nearly sunset, and the couple still hadn’t captured that perfect Santorini picture to display at their traditional wedding in China next month.

So their photographer, who is based in Shanghai, rushed the pair across the island’s whitewashed roofs and narrow cliffside footpaths, coaching them in Chinese at various scenic outlooks.

Above a luxury hotel renowned in China as the setting for a popular romantic comedy, he told the weary groom to lift his betrothed in an over-the-threshold pose. The third try was the charm.

For a grand finale, the couple stared into one another’s eyes on a rooftop, and the photographer framed their silhouettes around the blood-orange sun, sinking behind them into the shimmering Aegean Sea. It was the stuff pre-wedding-picture dreams were made of.

“Santorini is famous in China,” said the 29-year-old groom, Yao Kai, after the final click of the camera.

Unlike his parents, who he said had sat stoically for their wedding photos in China, the groom had the good fortune to have seen the world — and wanted his friends, family and wedding guests to see him seeing it.

“This is a great moment for our country’s economy,” he added. “We are getting stronger.”

Pre-wedding pictures have become a multi-billion-dollar business in the Instagram age — particularly for Asian couples.

Many Chinese brides and grooms who plan for traditional ceremonies back home go first for professional photographs under the Eiffel Tower in Paris, at Big Ben in London, and in the English countryside. (“A Downton Abbey effect on Chinese pre-wedding photo shoots,” the South China Morning Post reported.) New Zealand and Antarctica are the latest pre-wedding destination hot spots.

But the deep blues and white-out whites of Santorini exercise a particular hold on the romantic imagination of many an Asian nearlywed.

“A lot of people come,” said Xu Kaiyue, the photographer’s assistant. “Too many people.”

Santorini is fatally picturesque. Armadas of cruise ships and low-cost air carriers carry selfie and Instagram addicts to its clogged towns. Airbnbs have replaced residents. The island’s donkeys buckle under the burden of portly visitors. (“Fat tourists leave Greek island donkeys CRIPPLED,” read a headline in Britain’s Express newspaper.)

To profit off the Chinese market, Greek photographers have developed websites with galleries of stunning brides-to-be stretching languorously or leading white horses on the beach.

The island’s officials, like their counterparts across Greece, have pursued Chinese investment during the country’s economic crisis, and appreciate the lucrative surge in Chinese visitors.

Luke Bellonias, an island official, said the Chinese had extended the tourist season deep into autumn when most Europeans and Americans have gone home. “They just love to take photos,” he said. “They don’t love the sun that much.”

Still, he acknowledged, “This gets a bit out of control.”

Foreign photographers, complete with makeup crews, large stocks of wedding dresses and stylists, live for months on the island but dodge taxes, he said. The financial police rarely enforce the law, giving free rein, he said, to people “holding wedding dresses above their heads and two or three bags and running from place to place.”

For many couples, fees running into the tens of thousands of euros are a small price to pay for an image that they say encapsulates both true romance and social mobility.

“It’s as important, if not more important, than the ring,” said Olivia Martin-McGuire, the director of “China Love,” a documentary about the industry.

And for couples unable to afford the real thing, there are photo studios in Shanghai with Santorini sets.

“It’s very meaningful,” Ms. Martin-McGuire said.

Having pre-wedding pictures shot on Santorini itself seemed to mean the world to 26-year-old Tzuchi Lin, and his fiancée, Yingting Huang.

“It’s very exciting. Actually, we didn’t sleep last night,” Mr. Lin, who is known as Kenny, said in his hotel room early one recent morning. His 30-year-old fiancée, who uses the name Penny, applied hair spray in front of two wedding gowns draped from the window shutters.

“Now she can show off to her friends: ‘I went to Santorini to have my pre-wedding photos,’” he said.

The couple, from Taiwan, where some pre-wedding scholars say the industry began, slipped into something less comfortable. Mr. Lin wore a tuxedo with a maroon bow tie, and Ms. Huang an empire-waist white gown with lace bodice. She folded a second dress into a paper bag.

“We got them from Taobao,” Mr. Lin said. “China’s Amazon.”

They fueled up on eggs in the hotel, but the waiter insisted Mr. Lin drink a shot of ouzo.

“Now,” he said, “you can get married.”

In the parking lot, they met their photographers, Toto Kuo, a Taiwan native, and her husband of three months, Georgios Galanopoulos. They met “the old-fashioned” way, Ms. Kuo said — “couch surfing.”

The two photographers — who refused to have any pictures taken at their own wedding — led their clients to Oia, the town on the photo-bombarded tip of the island, where they set up shop in Mr. Galanopoulos’s family art gallery. They decided the bride-to-be should start posing in what Mr. Lin called the “more elegant” dress, as opposed to the “sexier” one in the bag.

They fought the crowds elbowing toward a particularly sought-after blue dome backdrop, but a Houston couple posing for professional anniversary pictures had already claimed the perch. Mr. Galanopoulos, 50, said the island’s Greek photographers had begun discussing whether there should be a five-minute-per-iconic-backdrop policy.

At a crowded lookout point, Mr. Galanopoulos instructed the couple to keep their lips puckered in a suspended near kiss.

“There’s a wedding, a bride and a groom!” an American shouted as Mr. Lin accidentally pecked his betrothed’s open eye. “Novio!” shouted someone in Spanish.

The sun started taking its toll. Ms. Huang sprayed sunscreen on her shoulders and pointed an electric fan at her throat. Her fiancé handed out water bottles.

They took a breather in the gallery, where Mr. Galanopoulos kept six wedding dresses on hand. Ms. Huang emerged from the basement in a red one with a 20-foot train.

At the church down the street, the caretaker shooed them away because the priest didn’t approve of the picture-taking. They moved to another rooftop, but Ms. Huang’s train nearly dragged over some dried dog droppings. Mr. Galanopoulos scraped them off with a pail and started shooting as his wife, holding the end of Ms. Huang’s train, struggled to create a billowing effect.

With time running out, things started looking up. Ms. Kuo noticed an auspicious sweat stain marking her husband’s T-shirt. (“Babe,” she said, “You have a heart.”) The priest had left, and the church caretaker sneaked them inside the courtyard, where the posing couple received shouts of congratulations and blessings for marital bliss from tourists on the packed footpath alongside the church.

After a wardrobe change into the “sexy” dress, the couple got their blue dome backdrop and nailed a rooftop proposal shot.

“Will you marry me?” Mr. Lin said in English.

“Say yes,” coached Ms. Kuo.

“Yes,” the bride said.

A crowd gathered below applauded warmly.
