No Fuji Hiro!

Posted in Misc with tags , , , on July 24, 2008 by dragonic

Yes, the whole me going to try out a japanese dish or two failed miserably.

I originally walked past the place and only 3 people were in eating, I thought to myself “Ok it’s not gonna be busy ill go round shopping for a bit longer.” Big mistake. 30 minutes later after locating one of the hoodies I was talking about in the last entry for a friend I went back to Fuji Hiro to see to my surprise the place absolutly packed!

(Small pic of Fuji Hiro resturant, not my pic)

Im a pretty fussy eater, If im trying something new for the first time I tend to lean towards going in when it’s empty so I don’t make a fool of myself when trying new foods, im weird like that (Im guessing most people who read this will be going WTF!) But Yeah that’s just how I am.

Managed to coerce my dad into going though next week, and at least I know the times that it gets busy so I can get in before the rush of people.

(Can anyone reccomend any Japanese dishes suitable for a newbie to Japanese cuisine?)

Other than that Leeds was good, I didn’t take any pictures, there wasn’t really anything to take pictures of. Alot of Leeds centre is being re-done and alot of construction workers were working (Not really photo material) didn’t buy much 2 DVD’s one of which is going back (Happiness of the Katakuris, loved the film, but it sticks on 13 minutes 8 Seconds and skips back to the first chapter! Anyone else had this problem, was kind of wondering if it was a general fault or if my DVD player might be on the blink)

So Yeah, warm day, not too warm just nice.

Random ramblings end here!

Leeds tomorrow!

Posted in Misc with tags , , , , , , , , on July 23, 2008 by dragonic

So Yeah im setting off for Leeds tomorrow (When I say setting off it makes me sound like im off on a long journey, when in reality it’s a 25 minute train ride away lol) just for a browse round some of the shops that I can lose myself in (Travelling Man, City Cyber Anime), but then again I suppose to the ones who know me that won’t be much of a surprise.  Im also majorly in need to find a ‘I <3 Leeds’ Jumper/Hoodie for a friend, she wants one pretty badly but hasn’t a clue where to get one so im off scouting around for one for her, this is probs a long shot but does anyone familiar with Leeds have any idea where to get one from, I have a basic idea but I don’t wanna be going round and round in circles all day lol

What im really going for is to really pass time, im so bored in the weekdays ATM (Not having a job can do that to ya) so to just get out of the house is going to be awesome, To be honest the train ride there is one of the best things about the actual day, it might seem weird but once im sat down and put in the earphones and switch on some good J-Rock I can just lose myself, staring out of the window at the passing trees (and Chavs if it’s a bad day). That may seem weird but to me it’s soothing.

Hoping to get some pics tomorrow of various things, Leeds is always full of street life with various performers and whatnot, so im hoping to make this blog a little less 2 dimensional (Yes I am going to keep up with this from now on)  though knowing my luck there won’t be any there tomorrow at all.

Also going to see if the Japanese Restaurant ‘Fuji Hiro’ is open, might just fancy checking that place out for lunch, if not ill be checking the prices for an evening meal (Anyone experienced the food from ‘Fuji Hiro’?).

So I hope I didn’t go on about absolutly nothing, I know I can seem boring to a lot of people (lol I’ve been told it on many occasions) and I hope this is to your liking.

Start of something new…

Well I thought i’d start this whole blogging thing, i’ve read many blogs in my lifetime, alot of them are absolutly fantastic and I can lose myself for hours in them. I’m such an addict on everything Japanese (Some people think that’s weird *coughRachelcough* ;)  (I don’t think she’ll ever read this so all is well lol)

My names Oliver, live in West Yorks, it’s a boring place though I spose Leeds kind of makes up for it, TBH that’s all I really wanna say about where I live as it is that bad :/

So Yeah ill try to update this everyday, try to get into a routine and all that with it, if im stuck for ideas I’ll take inspiration from other sites and kind of discuss them myself.

So there we go, I don’t think this was a bad introduction post lol
