Neon Genesis Evangelion. Best girl is whoever makes the most people angry.

Gradually watching through Mushishi.

Hello all, I posted very little a while ago then kinda forgot about this place. I'm trying to socialise more online and decided I'll give it another shot on here, so I'm just making another thread on here to say hi.

I'm thinking of buying a bass guitar and learning how to play that. Or buying a keyboard and re-learning to play that.

I'm looking at doing a Bachelor of Arts. For one uni it will be a Spanish/another major and for the other uni it will be a Japanese/another major. Just not really sure what would compliment a major in either language that well, it would be cool to teach English abroad though.

I finished watching FLCL and came right over here...……………..

I don't get it.

...Where was the good part?  The art was nice, but when did the show get good?  I missed it....I think...

For the most part I prefer subs. Although sometimes I'm lazy and just watch dubs, although it also depends on how good or bad the voice acting is and if the dubs changes the dialogue much. Baccano! has a great English voice acting cast though.

Ayy, bada bing, bada boom!

I HATE summer.

Chicken and corn soup. About to have some popcorn and green tea with honey.

I was watching Kitchen Nightmares and in one episode (I think it was the soul food restaurant) they had watermelon and onion together. Now I've got no experience with soul food at all since it's not really a thing in Australia but... bruh...

Sleep.

But in all seriousness dishes that revolve around beans as their primary ingredient are good. I've bean eating tomato and borlotti bean soup a lot over the past couple of weeks with slight variations to it every time I cook it, either due to not having certain ingredients or wondering how other ones would mix well in the dish.

Basics are:

1 onion, diced (not 100% necessary but nice to have)

2 sticks of celery, diced (again, not 100% necessary)

1 carrot, diced (I don't bother peeling them)

2 cloves of garlic

1 400g can of tomatoes

1 400g can of borlotti beans (I've used other types of beans before, it's not a big deal what you use)

1L (4cups) of stock (I usually use chicken)

And a bunch of pepper and some salt at the end.

I usually double those ingredients since I like to make enough so that I end up just eating that for 2 meals a day, I also usually end up tripling the onions and carrots since I like both in soups and stews. Other stuff I add into the soup is turnips, parsnips, potato, cabbage, zucchini, swedes and diced bacon. For seasoning I add some bay leaves and have also added a tablespoon of Italian herbs into it. I haven't tried adding barley or anything like that into the soup but I've found that the soup ends up being pretty filling and nutritious, also depends on what produce is cheap in your area and what you can get on sale. Canned tomatoes and beans in my town tend to be around $0.80-$1 each, vegetables fluctuate but usually if you go to the markets or something like that then you should get a good deal. This is one of my main meals I'm using to help me lose weight. Dish goes well in a slow cooker as well.

Another cheap meal I make in the slow cooker is chicken and corn soup. Buy the cheapest cuts of chicken (usually chicken legs, ideally anything with bones for extra flavour), make sure to add stuff like soy sauce, garlic and oyster sauce for extra flavour as well.

I'm rewatching Dragon Ball and gradually watching through Jojo for the first time. Jojo is without a doubt one of the stupidest things I have ever watched and I have loved every second of it so far.

I only recently started reading manga.  I'm on chapter 24 on Attack on titan. Also started reading Konosuba recently, I'm on chapter 7 of that.

Ex-plooooooooosion!!!

It's honestly not something I've ever thought about, it all depends on the actual character themself. Although I am partial to cute anime girls, just as long as the fanservice isn't too unbearable.

Has been in the low 90’s F the past couple days, and supposed to continue for the foreseeable future.

Was thinking that 23 seemed comparable to winter here, then I noticed the C ... 73F sounds nice for winter, but I kinda worry what summer must be like

I took a quick look at my towns Wikipedia page, apparently the average for summer is 32C (90ishF) which seems like nonsense to me. Usually feels more like it's around 35C+ (95F).

Overcast and really windy. It's winter in Australia and is currently 23c.

I'm threeeighteen (the website where I originally made that username required usernames to be between 3-18 characters long). I suck at introductions.

Age: 26

Gender: Male

From: Australia

I've been watching anime since I was around 7 or 8, the typical stuff for people my age such as Pokemon and Dragon Ball Z for the most part. During high school I started expanding my tastes in anime more with stuff like Ghost in the Shell, Fullmetal Alchemist (Brotherhood hadn't been released at this point) and Black Lagoon. Then my post high school years weren't very productive with regards to anime (or much else really), the past 12-18 months I've been getting more into anime again though and even started reading some manga (only Attack on Titan so far).

Outside of anime I don't really do a great deal, my PC died recently so I'm gradually buying parts for my first custom built rig but once that's built I'll get back into gaming again. My current laptop can't even play stuff like Victoria 2. I'm also going back to university next month to do a bachelor in accounting. I'm a beekeeper as well. I hope to get to know you lot.
