Regina Spektor

Seems like the song playing background is quite well received by you readers.
Been getting emails n msgs, enquired abt the song n the singer. Mike who like the song so much even downloaded the whole album. =)
In order not to retype for every mail, i think i might as well post a 'simple and to-the point' intro. Okie okie.. without much ado, may i present Regina Spektor and the song 'Fidelity'.

(Shake it up)
I never loved nobody fully
Always one foot on the ground
And by protecting my heart truly
I got lost in the sounds
I hear in my mind
All these voices
I hear in my mind all these words
I hear in my mind all this music

And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
And it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart

And suppose I never met you
Suppose we never fell in love
Suppose I never ever let you kiss me so sweet and so soft
Suppose I never ever saw you
Suppose we never ever called
Suppose I kept on singing love songs just to break my own fall
Just to break my fall
Just to break my fall
Break my fall
Break my fall

All my friends say that of course its gonna get better
Gonna get better
Better better better better
Better better better

I never love nobody fully
Always one foot on the ground
And by protecting by heart truly
I got lost
In the sounds
I hear in my mind
All these voices
I hear in my mind all these words
I hear in my mind
All this music
And it breaks my heart
It breaks my heart

I hear in my mind all of these voices
I hear in my mind all of these words
I hear in my mind all of this music

Breaks my
Heart
Breaks my heart

SUV Affair

Date : Wednesday, January 24, 2007
Time : 9:34 AM

I suppose SUV mkt in Brazil is more established and competitive, which is good for the consumers. Despite the debate raging on whether it is politically incorrect to purchase a gasoline-guzzling SUV, Latino buyers have become a significant force in the booming market for these 'bigger than normal' vehicles. Besides of the compact SUVs, here in Brazil, u have various model of mini SUVs which is a totally hit for lady-driver.

Two of the most popular: Volkwagen Crossfox and Ford Ecosport.

The VW Crossfox is produced in Brazil and sold in Latin American mkt, available only with front-wheel drive. It has a rugged, chunky looked despite its compact size. Sexy and safe! Definitely a catch for mini SUVs lover. Selling Price: R45k = SGD 35k, how tempting!

The other one worth mentioning is the Ford Ecosport. Its is also built and designed in Brazil, solely for the Latin America mkt. Slightly longer than Crossfox, Ecosport is characterized by its robustness, another off-roader rocker! Selling Price: R66K = SGD 48k.

In nutshell, Latin America is the paradise for all SUV lovers!! JJ asked y i like SUV.. haha.. rem i told u my ultimate fantasy of a summer ride in a Red Hot Jeep Wrangler Convertible along Great Ocean Road with only bikinis on and a cute hunk by the side. =) Wahaha.. i m a desperate DREAMER i reckon.

vroom.. vroom... vroom...

Date : Tuesday, January 23, 2007
Time : 8:00 AM

Its all abt car-talk in the car these days. Boss is trying to convince me into gettin' a Peugeot 206. He thinks the car size suits me well.

Well, i m rather pettite in size but i m rather sure i m a big gal trapped in a small body (Just like Zico.. boy I m hundred percent sure he is a big dog trapped in a miniature size). I dun really fancy small cars. (except for mini cooper n beetle cabriolet, it'll be a sin for one to say NO to these GORGEOUS creation!) Impractical i know it might

sounds, i m sucha fans of the small SUVs. Current Fav is the Forester Sports 2.5X. Gosh.. Its such a head-turner which can absolutely brings me down to knee.. I m not a speed demon but i simply enjoy the un-tradeable sense of security sitting in one. Higher seating position for a better view of the road, traffic, and surroundings but not too high to make me looks too 'dao'. =P Not to mention it is soo much pet-friendly compared to econobox.

The only hindering problem is my parking skill. Its aggravating to maneuver an SUV through small lil' tiny twiny parking lots. If only i had better parking skills!

Waiting On an Angel

Date : Friday, December 29, 2006
Time : 11:26 PM

Waiting on an angel

one to carry me home

hope you come to see me soon

cause I don't want to go alone

I don't wanna go alone

Now angel won't you come by me

angel hear my plea

take my hand lift me up

so that I can fly with thee

And I'm waiting on an angel

and I know it won't be long

to find myself in a resting place

in my angel's arms

So speak kind to a stranger

cause you'll never know

it just might be an angel come

knockin' at your door

And I'm waiting on an angel

and I know it won't be long

to find myself in a resting place

in my angel's arms

Waiting on an angel

one to carry me home

hope you come to see me soon

cause I don't wanna go alone

I don't wanna go alone

don't wanna go

I don't wanna go alone

Welcome To My Life

Date : Wednesday, December 13, 2006
Time : 3:55 PM

Do you ever feel like breaking down?

Do you ever feel out of place?

Like somehow you just don't belong

And no one understands you

Do you ever wanna run away?

Do you lock yourself in your room?

With the radio on turned up so loud

That no one hears you screaming

No you don't know what it's like

When nothing feels all right

You don't know what it's like

To be like me

To be hurt

To feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No you don't know what it's like

Welcome to my life

Do you wanna be somebody else?

Are you sick of feeling so left out?

Are you desperate to find something more?

Before your life is over

Are you stuck inside a world you hate?

Are you sick of everyone around?

With their big fake smiles and stupid lies

While deep inside you're bleeding

No you don't know what it's like

When nothing feels all right

You don't know what it's like

To be like me

To be hurt

To feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No you don't know what it's like

Welcome to my life

No one ever lied straight to your face

And no one ever stabbed you in the back

You might think I'm happy but I'm not gonna be okay

Everybody always gave you what you wanted

You never had to work it was always there

You don't know what it's like, what it's like

To be hurt

To feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No you don't know what it's like (what it's like)

To be hurt

To feel lost

To be left out in the dark

To be kicked when you're down

To feel like you've been pushed around

To be on the edge of breaking down

And no one's there to save you

No you don't know what it's like

Welcome to my life

SuperHero Wannabe

Date : Wednesday, October 25, 2006
Time : 4:10 PM

I feel like a little girl
Trying to conquer the whole wide world
Everybody wants a piece of me
And I just don't know where to turn
I've got work piled up to my head
All I want to do is jump into bed
And wash away my troubles with lemonade
Play hide and seek with the boy next door
Take a trip to Singapore
And imagine how I'll make the world a better place

All I need is a good disguise
One where nobody can recognize
That I'm feeling so small
All I need is a secret weapon
I've gotta have faith
Zapping monsters into outer space
I'm gonna be a Superhero

I wanna be a lil' Superhero Gal too. =D
