Sometimes I wish I had prettier/more unique eyes but then I’m like “be careful what you wish for” because every time I’ve wished for a feature and then got it there’s been a downside. “Oh I wish I had curly hair like the rest of my family” and now I spend like a million hours just to make it look right. “My lips are so boring I wish they were a different color” and now the color of my lips depends on the slightest temperature changes and they keep turning purple. “I wish I had an excuse to wear baggier jeans” bam, my thighs are the only part of me that seems to quickly get both fat and muscular and now I have no choice but to wear baggy jeans. Like what kind of genie bullshit is this! If I wish for different looking eyes I’m probably like. Gonna end up needing contacts. I guess my having senpaku eyes is enough “uniqueness” for me.

/hj (this post is joking and I don’t really believe that I am willing these things into existence, nor do I really hate any of these things, just mildly annoyed. It’s only marked as half joking because I did wish these things, and they did happen, so it’s not like the entire post is a joke, some of it is true.)

𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲   We are delighted to announce that on 31 March Synergy Maritime Pvt Ltd took over the full technical management of the dual-fuel LPG vessel “MIRAI”, which can also carry ammonia and VCM.   Owned by leading Japanese shipowners Kumiai Senpaku Co. Ltd, the “MIRAI” is the first medium-sized, fully refrigerated LPG vessel to have been designed and built in China, and was constructed at the Jiangnan Shipyard in Shanghai under Synergy’s supervision. As project leader over more than 30 months, and in close liaison with owners, charterers and all other stakeholders, Synergy was involved in all design aspects and conducted the pre-contract specification review and the technical negotiations, plan approval, site supervision, delivery and gas trials. As pictured below, our Project Manager, New builds and Offshore Projects, Shirish Sharma, was honoured to be asked by Kumiai Senpaku Co. Ltd to attend the delivery and naming ceremony.   “𝗠𝗜𝗥𝗔𝗜” means “𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲”, and in both design and name this newbuild exemplifies owners’ vision of green seas by digitised, intelligent and state-of-the-art shipping.   Tommy Thomassen, our COO (Tankers), said “By tonnage, alternate-fuelled ships account for nearly half the global order book, and this project further proves that Synergy Marine Group is not just an asset manager - it is a technical thought partner for owners and can deliver integrated solutions which require cross-disciplinary skills.”    Subodh Borse, Director, New Building and Offshore Projects, Synergy Marine Group, added “In the decarbonisation and digitisation spaces, we have been working on vessels like this for some time, as part of evolution and futuristic can-do. A newbuild like the “MIRAI” allows us to deploy a great many areas of expertise, and our ability to do that means we have been able to take on such a variety of technically challenging projects in the maritime and offshore sectors.”    The “MIRAI” finished gas trials at Ulsan on 12 April is currently on her maiden voyage to the USA via the Panama Canal. Here's wishing Captain Sujeet Pandey, Chief Engineer Harsh Vardhan Chaudhary and the whole team on board fair winds and following seas. Please see a video here with some excellent footage of keel-laying, sea trials and delivery 👉https://bit.ly/42A1OTX

Maldicion Senpaku.

Dicen que los ojos son una ventana al alma.

Existe una superstición japonesa llamada «ojos sanpaku» que relaciona la forma de estos con el destino de las personas. Sanpaku se traduce literalmente como Tres Blancos o Tres Vacios, y se refiere a la parte blanca del ojo visible por encima (yin sanpaku) o por debajo del iris (yang sanpaku).

DE DONDE VIENE ESTA SUPERSTICION-

El filósofo japonés George Ohsawa, creador del sistema de enseñanzas conocido con el nombre de “macrobiótica”, fue justamente también el responsable del libro “Sois todos Sanpaku”, que acercó el concepto al mundo occidental. En la obra se afirma: “Los sanpakus pierden contacto con su ser interior, con su cuerpo y con las fuerzas naturales que rigen el universo. La sintomatología puede reconocerse en un cuadro de cansancio crónico, libido reducida, reflejos pobres, mal humor, insomnio y falta de precisión en los pensamientos y en las acciones". Y agrega: "La macrobiótica es una forma simple y natural de hacer una corrección a la peligrosa condición sanpaku para crear un estado permanente de buena salud, armonía y bienestar, tanto interno como externo”.

Yin sanpaku

Yin sanpaku se refiere a la exposición de la parte blanca del ojo o esclerótica debajo del iris. Según la teoría, indica un desequilibrio común en alcohólicos y drogadictos, quienes a menudo pueden ponerse en situaciones peligrosas. Por lo tanto, en una especie de silogismo simple, están en peligro ante el mundo que los rodea.

Yang sanpaku

La otra forma, yang sanpaku, se refiere a la exposición de la esclerótica sobre el iris. En este caso, las personas con esta característica se supone que están llenas de rabia, ira y violencia, no controlan sus emociones y terminan siendo un peligro para la sociedad.
