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

Lovely song.

Mags are L.O.V.E

「This is It」was awesome. I still can't grasp the fact that MJ isn't here with us anymore. It's sad how people believe fabricated lies about the man, and he gave us so much in return and helping others. And it's true that I don't really feel that he's gone. Throughout the whole movie, I paid extra attention to his jackets, they sum up at simply fabulous! There is no one who can do shoulder pads without looking weird, but he does it with style! And that white collared-studded-black-leather-jacket is a to die for! I got my dose of POPTEEN just earlier this evening after ticket collection, December issues are always the best ever issue throughout the year. Tomorrow I'll stop by Borders to see if TeenVogue is in. Magazines are a girl's choice of read. Like I mentioned on Tweeter, the new collection of Jimmy Choo X H&M, I have to say, I need and want every single piece in my wardrobe right this minute! But then again, we are sad people not to have one here...
it has been quite a tiring day for me yesterday. afternoon and evening was quite well spent with family members. it might sound boring but its not. both my aunts are here. they had spent the day with my granddad, but today it's my turn to bring them around. doh i am so bad at this i wonder where are we going. but most likely chinatown again...

Hello World

Mr. Emo decides to pop out of his box these couple of days to keep me company. This is his first breath of fresh air in 2010!!! OMG, he has been so lazy... and does not want to change his clothes either... I smell a stanch somewhere. Hmmm! LOL Just 2 weeks before his birthday, clothes, shoes? Well I'll make the decision this time not him. :P AND... I received my Hello Kt make-up trunk today. How awesome is this! Finally all my cosmetics can be stored in one proper place without getting lost in the many pouches. It's indeed a good start to 2010!! Imagine that I was thinking on Spring Cleaning when I've no idea how to deal with my cosmetics, and the next thing, this came! It saved me! Loving the accented ribbons on the top and the graphics, and on top of that, the colour and heart shaped mirror inside. Love y'all.
