In the head of Ehsan http://www.ehsan.me There is a field inside my soul, I'll meet you there Wed, 01 Feb 2012 14:41:37 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=In the head of Ehsan This is a podcast consisting of memoirs where I document my reflections and thoughts about life, the world, society, Islam and everything else I find interesting. Instead of letting the thoughts flow on the inside I let them out so I personally may reach a greater insight as well as other might draw benefit, be touched and reach a deeper insight. All episodes are recorded completely spontaneously without any preparations. The choice of words could thus sometimes be repetitive, sometimes the tone of speech could be boring, sometimes it is a bit chaotic, especially considering that English is my 4th language. I don’t know how the result will be and I don’t rein the horse of tongue but let it run freely in the meadow of my thoughts.

I had a hard time finding a really good trailer which is not dubbed to English. If you want to see anime then see it in the original language (Japanese) with subtitles, else you will loose a lot of the feeling. The trailer above was the best I could find but the soundtrack is from the movie “Requiem for a Dream” and not Death Note’s own awesome original soundtrack.
