Omurice...need to work on flipping skills

Pork Omurice

This is what it should look like:
Image credits: http://foodtrip.deviantart.com

Is a modern Japanese dish, consisting of fried rice and omelette (usually with assortment of meat and vegetables). It is typically served with demi-glace sauce or ketchup over the omelette.

Here's what I used for 2 medium servings:

Ingredients
1 pound lean Pork diced into cubes
frozen vegetable mix (carrots, peas, corn)
1 large Scallion
3/4 cup Ketchup
1 tbsp Soy Sauce
1 Garlic clove
4 medium Shiitake Mushrooms sliced into thin strips
1 medium size White Onion diced
2 1/2 cups long-grained Rice
3 1/4 cups Water (roughly)
1 tbsp Olive Oil
4 eggs
Salt and Pepper to taste

Confused...

Japanese music videos have a tendency to blow my mind. Maybe it's the randomness...or the fact that they have no shame, and just don't give a ____.

In anycase...here's some entertainment for you.

DJ OZMA DRINKIN'BOYS...doesn't get any more WTF than this...

This one is rather tame compared to the first one...but still kept me oddly drawn for some reason

...more to come as i stumble on the weirdness.
