Empire state of mind



Oooh oooh, New York (2x)
Grew up in a town,
That is famous as a place of movie scenes
Noise is always loud
There are sirenes all around
And the streets are mean
If I could make it here
I could make it anywhere
That’s what they say
Seeing my face in lights
Or my name in marquees found down Broadway
Even if it ain’t all it seems
I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby, I’m from
Chorus
New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There’s nothing you can’t do
Now you’re in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New York
On the avenue, there ain’t never a curfew
Ladies work so hard
Such a melting pot on the corner selling rock
Preachers pray to God
Hail a gypsy cab
Takes me down from Harlem to the Brooklyn Bridge
Someone sleeps tonight with a hunger
For more than from an empty fridge
I’m going to make it by any means
I got a pocketful of dreams
Baby, I’m from
Chorus
New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There’s nothing you can’t do
Now you’re in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York, New York, New York
Chorus
One hand in the air for the big city
Street lights, big dreams, all looking pretty
No place in the world that can compared
Put your lighters in the air
Everybody say yeah, yeah yeah
Chorus
New York, concrete jungle where dreams are made of
There’s nothing you can’t do
Now you’re in New York
These streets will make you feel brand new
Big lights will inspire you
Hear it for New York

Back to blogging for a bit now. It has been a while since I have been doing this and it feels really strange. Because that I know this is going to be public and everything. Secondly I haven't been blogging for the longest time, hence I've no expectations for myself at all. Stay tune

BACK!

I'm back with everything incomplete! This was suppose to be my project for web design this semester. Haha.. and I just wanted to try out this FTP program I downloaded as a trial. So yups. It's ugly shit this layout. You can give all the nasty comments you want. I was away for a super long time I know. And I've been updating religiously at LJ and I find it pretty efficient and I just love the cosy community and friends I have over there. There are just lots of things going on my mind right now. And yes I do plan to spill the beans. So you see I am gonna have a BBQ party in less than 24 hours tomorrow evening at West Coast. And I am thinking of what if this and what if that. It's actually a combined celebration with a sec sch mate whose bday is one day after mine. And its quite cool in a way but now to think about it I am worried that my friends will not enjoy themselves. SIGHS and now I can't get to sleep because I don;t know. LOL Well well... I'll be in my 3rd y...
why is there such a disturbing, irritating and idiotic lecturer teaching us for a semester? fuck! totally detest attending his lessons. forever talking about his PROUDEST moments, which in fact he told MOST or ALL of the students under him. it wasn't even something great. i don't find it a need to even tell us. & his remarks are forever so gay, i doubt he can do something that good. saying and not showing/doing doesn't prove that you are good. if it wasn't for the grades i won't be in my current situation now. part of me thinks that i SHOULD and the other, NOT. school have not been great since early this year. 8:30 lessons are always a bore. considering turning up on time for classes at 9:00. its already a difficult task. think i'll only start being serious after cny. excuses... and school seems like zombieville in the morning coz there are really very few people and i meant really little! so yesterday was such a boring day. friends said that i've a sian...
