Meat !

For all you meat lover out there , here'a an interesting bit of information . You've all had bacon right ? Or atleast dreamed of having it ? We all know that nothing beats fried bacon . Well something does actually . It's also pork , but only it comes from a different part of the animal . Bacon you see, come from the belly of the pig , and that meat has a specific name . It's called the panchetta . But the tastier bit is found in the cheek of the pig ! Can you imagine that ? That meat is called the guanchiale , I think ( forgive me but the spelling might be wrong , but if you pronounce it without the 'i' in the middle , that's exactly how to pronounce it's name ) This guanchiale , is found in such small quantities , that you dont even get it in strips like bacon of the panchetta . You get it in cubes , finely diced and chopped . Rumour has it , fried crispy guachiale practically OWNS bacon ! Hard to believe right ? Well , I'm an Indian , and pork isn't exactly the most common thing on my daily menu , so if your'e wondering how I got to know all this , it's from Masterchef Australia Season 3 ! Man , I love that show !

Back after a long time - courtesy , the exams !

Errr.......... not posted in a long time . Well exams are really taking us to our limits , so it's just not happening really . Well 1 week over , and a hell of a week incoming . And 2 more days after that . Yeah I'll survive . I hope . Well , here's just some random stuff that I found out recently .  We have a story in our English syllabus about how racial discriminations still affect things like marriages , in underdeveloped tribe dominated parts of countries like Africa . So the story there takes place in Lagos . , Nigeria . Now , the first part of the very popular film X-men Origins Wolverine was also shot in Lagos ! You pretty much get a big view of the city in the first part of the film .

Naruto Shippuden Opening 9 - It's done !

Phew ! After lots of hard work , I finally did it . I cant quite believe it yet myself . My own video's on youtube !!!! Like really !!! And it's working ! AND it's based on something popular and new . Man , this feeling is awesome . Really hope that I get some views ! Now THAT'd be great . Well , for the reader's of my blog , here's a link to check out the video that I posted if you're interested !

Well , if you've read the first few posts of mine , you'd figure out I'm a fan of naruto . Well , the anime ranks as one of my favourite's of all time , and hopefully will continue to do so for a quite sometime on the future . I had made up my mint to post naruto's latest intro song and comment about how awesome it was and all , but I coudn't find it on youtube ! Like seriously ! All the intros I got there were just ..... well their quality was sad , you could say . Well , I'd post a link to narutoget.com and tell readers to see it from there but that's just lame right ? So I'm gonna make a separate video of the new intro and post it here , as well as on youtube ! Nice idea right ? Well , it's gonna take some work . But hey , maybe it'll be worth it , who knows ? I don't actually upload things on youtube as such . I just see videos there . This might be a new start . The intro I'm talking about hasn't been uploaded yet . ( I'm serious , I spent 15 bloody minutes checking actually) , so I'm gonna do it . Will give link in my next post , after I'v finished .

Anime

Well , judging by my friends and the other people around me , I would seem to have a rather odd habit for someone my age .The fact is , I like anime . Well everyone liked it when they were kids , I mean . Cartoons were all that we used to see right ? In those days ? But I still like them , to be honest . Well don't get me wrong ,  what I'm talking about is not cartoons . It's anime . Yeah , that sounded weird , but actually , there's a HUGE difference . Cartoons refers to all 2 D moving characters in general  . Anime is something much much more special . It's a special sort of art , you could call it , that originated in Japan , years ago . That's what separates them from all other cartoons in general . The characters , there's a special type of drawing them . That make them look real , like actual beings with lives and emotions , but not overdoing it , so it seems like they're actually real , like in real life . That's the thing which never fails to entertain millions of people , it's a hugely popular thing all around the world . If you go to youtube , and check out anything to do with anime , like an intro song of a certain series perhaps , youll find good comments , by people of ALL age groups .Well , when you see a film , what you see the characters doing in pretty much confined to the limits of how well the guy hired to act that character can pull it off . But that's never actually completely possible you know ? Cause the scriptwriter and director probably have an idea of what they want that particular character to do in the film , and they guide the actor in that way , but in very few cases does the actor actually manage to pull it off . And when he does, the film that comes out is either an oscar-winning superhit , or a well known blockbuster that not only tops the charts but remains in the hearts and minds of the people for a long long time to come . But in anime , each character is skillfully drawn , form scratch , in each frame , so the expressions and feeling, the faces, the things that make us anticipate to actually find out what's gonna come next , that feeling of suspense , those things are explained as clear as water . Also the emotions are simple so what that character's face is menant to show , or what he's probably feeling , can be clearly understood . The actual reason why im writing this is something that happened yesterday . I see lots of shows on TV and good ones , with great stories an aweomse characters and lots of interesting action . They feel good , but what they actually provide is a way to spend time . Yesterday , after trying to memorize civics in vain for 4 continuous hours , I took a break . I was having dinner at the time , so I opened the TV . Nothing good in Star World , Star Movies , or HBO , so I switch to Animax . I see " The Disappearance of Haruhi Suzumiya " showing again .( which is a movie of a popular anime series in Japan) I had seen a bit of it yesterday itself , when it had also been showing in the morning .That one hour left me SO engrossed that I couldn't get it out of my head for the entire of last night . Like seriously .It's just the style that unconciously draws you in , and before you know it , you've forgotten about four food , and you're staring at the screen , lost . The most fucked up thing was I couldn't see what finally happened at the end after John actually found Haruhi and they decided to secretly break into North High . I had to leave to bloody practice maths for my coming exams . It can't be helped , those are the curses of education , but I woudn't have given up that one hour for the world . The plot was SO interesting to me for some reason , that last night , I decided I would write a story about it . More about this , will be highlighted in my next post . So keep reading till then !

 This is a poster of the film I kept blabbering on about - ( cant help it , but it's all in Japanese )
