Music Monday #11: Circle of Life

Lion King is one of my favourite Disney cartoon and this is my favourite song from Lion King. I love the story between Simba and his father Mustafa. It was really real and touching! Sometimes, we need to be stern in educating our child, or else he/ she would ended up a spoilt brat. But yet at the same time, we need to build a loving relationship with our child. This is not an easy task, especially when your child is still young. He/ she wouldn't understand about 'saying no for their own good'. ><

And this reminds me of my experience with a flasher when I was 12 yr-old. I wanted to go to 7-eleven which is nearby my school with my friend. A day before that, I asked my mom for permission but she said no. I was really angry. I ignored her command and went to 7-eleven with my friend after school the next day. On the way, we met with a flasher. It was horrid! I've never seen "guy's thing' before that and seeing it, it was like seeing a monster. I was traumatized. For weeks, I couldn't sleep. Poor me! And I regretted ignoring my mom's command. Sorry, ma!

Music Monday #10: Lady Is A Vamp

I am not really a Spice Girls fan but I simply love their songs from their new album. For instance, this below song. This song is really catchy and easy to sing. You can hear me singing this everytime i go for my karaoke session. And this is M's favourite song from me. He is always smiling when i sing this song! :)

Spice Girls - Lady Is A Vamp

Elvis was a coola shaker
Marley, Ziggy, melody makers
She's a Bond babe, kick some ass
Doctor No, this girl's got class
Charlie's Angels, girls on top
Handbags, heels, their pistols rock
"Baby Love", so glam queen
Sing the blues, a love Supreme
Sixties, Twiggy set the pace
Way back then she had the face

That's all in the past, legends built to last
But she's got something new
She's a power girl in a 90's world
And she knows just what to do

'Cause the lady is a vamp, she's a vixen not a tramp
She's a da da da da da da
Come on fellas, place your bets, 'cause you ain't seen nothing yet
She's the top of the top, she's the best, yes

Jackie O., we loved her so
So did Mr. President, as far as we know
Norma Jean had a 7-year itch
Some like it hot to a fever pitch
Sandy, Danny, summer love
Pink Ladies, T-birds, the moon above

That's all in the past, legends built to last
But she's got something new
She's a power girl in a 90's world
Shes a down town swinging dude

'Cause the lady is a vamp, she's a vixen not a tramp
She's a da da da da da da
Come on fellas, place your bets, 'cause you ain't seen nothing yet
She's the top of the top, she's the best, yes!

Scary, Baby, Ginger, Posh, Sporty, yes, now that's your lot
We're the Spice Girls, ready to go
Ladies and gents can you please take your seats
And we hope that you enjoy the show

Ahahah, thank you very much!

KFC on Valentine's

Yup, that's what we had on our Valentine's. Isn't this pathetic? LOL! Actually, we had planned to cook, but we were feeling so lazy towards the evening. It was hilarious on how we decided to buy KFC.

Ok, it was like this. We were on our way to market, in the car. Both of us were feeling a little lazy to cook, but we insisted that we cook because it was valentine's. "No need buy vegetables lar, just buy KFC, easy & fast!" I lamented out jokingly. Then M gave me a look that says, "How can?" And I said, "Joking only mah", followed by a brief laugh. So, I continued my driving. A minute later, he said, "Ok, let's buy KFC!" We looked at each others and laughed. Then we headed to buy KFC home.

Although our Valentine's dinner was nothing fancy, but it was the mood that counts. We were blessed that we still have each others, and blessed that our love is growing with our age. And that is what we need to celebrate Valentine's: LOVE! :)

How about yours?

Are You Ready For Marriage?

M & I have just watched Sex & The City, The Movie during the recent weekend. We found it kind of dramatic for Carrie to get so upset with Mr.Big that she has totally ignored him, leaving no space for making up. Well, at least she could have listen to his explanation first. But then again, who wouldn't be upset if the groom pulled out at the most exciting moment of your life? It's really a complicated feeling, if i were the bride. It's a mixture of embarrassment, anger, rejected, betrayal, hatred and love, all at the same time.

What i really love about this movie is seeing how supportive this group of girls are! And it has shown us how important our girlfriends are, regardless how old you've grown. :)

So, what was playing in Mr. Big's mind when he decided to leave the wedding? Well, at first, i couldn't understand why he kept calling Carrie and insist on listening to her voice before going in. But later on, i got it. Carrie has let the wedding gets bigger than Mr. Big himself. And Mr. Big was in a 'confuse' state for a moment. He thought that the marriage will change their relationship.

I think that it is so important to talk to your significant other about marriage and all before the BIG DAY. Communication is one of the key to a happy relationship. This will helps to avoid such thing (like Mr.Big) from happening. For M & I, we talk alot about our life and our life after marriage. We're blessed that both of us have the same goals in life. That way, we can work together to achieve them. Just to test my readiness, i've taken the below quiz. And looks like I'm 86% ready for marriage. :)

Are You Ready for Marriage?

You Are 86% Ready for Marriage

This doesn't mean you should rush out and get married...
But if you did tie the knot, it would probably work out great!
