A REVIEW ON THE LIFE EVERYONE SEEKS.


This week I will review Life.
Let us begin with the basics shall we? Life is not whether we are alive or not. Although it may have a lot of meanings, my favorite is a definition is the following one at the current moment. Life is what you want to make it. You could choose to live your life like your alcoholic uncle, or like your persnickety and overly picky aunt.

Life is a different experience for everyone. Some people may be poor in the richest city on earth, or some people may be rich in the poorest city on earth. Life differs vastly.

The ideal Life is what all people want, what few people have, and what many people think they have. Up until the 19th Century people thought that living in the largest empire was the ideal Life. Back then people thought that by living in the largest Empire on earth it will make your life easier. I don’t have to say that they were wrong do I?

Up until the new millennium, people though that having a lot of money was the ideal life. Those people couldn’t have been more wrong, but in the year 2008 I noticed something. I did not see this in my city, but all around the world on my television. Some people, I noticed, were having fun with just a stick and a bicycle ring. Others were sharing their life on YouTube and having a blast doing it. One gentleman in particular had and has his own show on the Travel Channel and travels around the world and experiences what the happiest and purest people, in my eyes, love to eat locally.

Life can also be a big bitch. It can take one of more than one of your loved ones in a blink of an eye. It can also turn your world upside down overnight. As is with a pen-pal I met through YouTube, the website originally dedicated to peoples’ lives. One day he was recovering in a hotel from a drug overdose and the next day his old friend from high school sent a private jet to pick him up with assurance of a new life, success, and a steady income, only to go back to doing drugs all over again.

It is true Life like all things in this world has its ups and downs, but I think that by always aiming to have fun, making people laugh, working hard and playing even harder, making your own choices, having the best people in your life and living a healthy lifestyle is the best chance into living in your own personal paradise. Well that and living somewhere tropical couldn’t hurt either.

DON’T FORGET TO FOLLOW ME!!!

Life is beautiful. I love Life.

McDonald's INVADES YOUTUBE? CANADIANS ARE ACTING LIKE AMERICANS?


Today I will blog about a book I have been reading for my English class. Fast Food Nation by Erich Schlosser is an interesting book. I suggest you read it so you can find out what the fast food industry has been doing “behind our backs” so to speak.

I personally like this book. I enjoy it because it reveals the dirty secrets fast food companies once had. It shows us that they are still the money hungry bastards they always have been, but just a little more white collared on the outside. I think more people should read this book, for it will open their eyes and show them what comes with being omnivores.

This book has had an affect on me, but not on my way of eating, rather on my way of thinking. I decided to start my long transition to a vegetarian long before I started reading this book. I took the initiative not because of cute furry animals dying, no I don’t care if I devour my uncle’s cow, Bertha. I want to have a vegetarian based diet because of my stomach troubles. I have a hard time digesting meats properly sometimes. This was my second time reading this book, so I already knew what came along when grabbing it from my very dusty shelf.

Now I leave you with a popular YouTuber, Joe Penna or MysteryGuitarMan as he is known on YouTube. The following is a commercial he did for McDonald’s. I like this video because it shows Joe’s talent as a normal person who became successful with YouTube, not because it has McDonald’s stuff.

A BLOG POST TO END ALL CULINARY CLASS PROBLEMS?


Hello my friends, if you were wondering what on earth my answer was it is simple/complicated. I will give back stories to all of the facts.

  1. Currently (darn you Charles) I am NOT hopelessly devoted to culinary arts, yes sad but true. If I was hopelessly devoted to Culinary Arts I would not be taking GEd classes and working, I would be making and creating new dishes and recipes for everyone to enjoy.

  1. I am NOT in love with my soul mate, because not only has she not met me, but I have not met her either. I was listening to Michael Buble.

  1. All I can say is…expect this story from someone else that is not me on YouTube.

  1. This is the correct answer. There is no way anyone could have known, and to add to the sketchiness, I recently cut my hair. So just trust me. 

  1. Yes my family is descended from the Aztecs, we have lived around the same area for a long time, but there is a significant amount of Spanish blood from my paternal grandmother’s side and from my maternal grandfather’s side.

  1. I like cookbooks and I love reading what other chefs are up to in the world, but I do not let them influence my ideas.

THIS WEEK’S TOPIC: SCHOOL
            If you are wondering what I’ve been going through I will tell you. If you haven’t I’m gonna tell you anyways. My culinary class is going great. I am learning new and different ways of cooking food. I love this class. In my gourmet class, we the students are the ones in charge of making the food for Oxnard College’s own secret restaurant. It gets a new name every spring as a result of the new students’ decisions. The students in the waiter’s class are the ones who decide on what the restaurant will be called. The students in the gourmet class are in charge of cooking the meals. The first three weeks I was with the dessert team. You can find footage of this on my YouTube channel youtube.com/twistedalphonso1 I highly suggest you watch the video titled “Thoughts of a Culinary Student”. The following week through late March I was in charge of the salad chefs. Two weeks ago I was and currently am with the main course team.

            Now on to the juicy stuff. In this paragraph I will spill the beans on the instructors and stuff the chef does not even know. Last semester we got a new instructor. He is pretty cool, apart from his huge ego. There are times when I ask myself how I am able to refrain from saying something I will regret at him. Don’t get me wrong he is extremely talented, knowledgeable, and good at what he does, but he is an a** sometimes. Well what else can you expect from French people, hairy armpits and no showers? We already know that. Don’t even get me started with the other chef’s class. I hear that even though we have 10 students running the Friday restaurant, and they have like 15, their part of the restaurant is hectic and a mess.

If I get in trouble or not liked from this post by my instructor I say to him “Bring it ON”. The truth must be told. This college needs another great instructor, not a culinary dictator. We need a culinary instructor not a chef. I was going to complain to the head of the culinary department anyways so I’m killing two birds with one stone right?

REMEMBER TO FOLLOW ME

I think that is all my brain is capable of tonight. With that I leave you a singer 100 TIMES WORSE THAT KESHA! Her name is Rebecca Black and I’m disappointed by some of the music being released today.


But at least this new sexy singer Porcelain Black gives hope to new new music, and it doesn't hurt that Lil' Wayne appears in it.
