My Song!!!

For you all who knows what's happening to me lately. Ima say Im fine and I love this song!!!




Mary J Blige - Just Fine Lyrics

You know I love music
And every time I hear something hot
It makes me wanna move
It makes me wanna have fun
But it’s something about this joint right here
This joint right here
Its makes me wanna…..Woooh

Let it go……
Can’t let this thing called love get away from you
Feel free right now, going do what you want to do
Can’t let nobody take it away, from you, from me, from we
No time for moping around, are you kidding?
And no time for negative vibes, cause I’m winning
It’s been a long week, I put in my hardest
Gonna live my life, feels so good to get it right

So I like what I see when I’m looking at me
When I’m walking past the mirror
No stress through the night, at a time in my life
Ain’t worried about if you feel it
Got my head on straight, I got my mind right
I aint gonna let you kill it
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just…..

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just fine

Feels so good, when you’re doing all the things that you want to do
Get the best out of life, treat yourself to something new
Keep your head up high
In yourself, believe in you, believe in me
Having a really good time, I’m not complaining
And I’m a still wear a smile if it raining
I got to enjoy myself regardless
I appreciate life, I’m so glad I got mine

So I like what I see when I’m looking at me
When I’m walking past the mirror
Aint worried about you and what you gonna do
I’m a lady so I must stay classy
Got to keep it hot, keep it together
If I want to get better
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just…..
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I won’t change my life, my life’s just fine

I aint gon’ let nothing get in my way
(I ain’t gone let nobody bring me down, no, no, no)
No matter what nobody has to say
(No way, no way, no way)
I ain’t gon’ let nothing get in my way
No matter what nobody has to say

Feels so good, when you’re doing all the things that you want to do
Get the best out of life, treat yourself to something new
It’s a really good thing to say
That I won’t change my life, my life’s just fine

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I won’t change my life, my life’s just fine

So I like what I see when I’m looking at me
When I’m walking past the mirror
No stress through the night, at a time in my life
Ain’t worried about if you feel it
Got my head on straight, I got my mind right
I ain’t gonna let you kill it
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just…..

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just fine

Sketches. Materialist Inspired.

15th October 2008

I was walking home, listening to Kanye's Flashing Lights, one of my most favorite songs ever. I love, I fucking love that song, I love the line, "She dont believe in shooting stars, but she believes in shoes and cars..." Damn, I love it, love the beat, love the video, it's very powerful and kinda overwhelming to me. And somehow when I listen to this song, I let myself to admit that I want to be rich, I want to make lots of money one day. I dream about it. In fact I always admire that kind of story about poor people who work really hard and to finally achieve their dream.



I think it's such a powerful story. I was then inspired by this imaginary story in my head. Story of a poor child, raised with the parents' ambition that he/she will make millions. So they get themselves into college, graduated with excellent grades, and landed a multimillion dollar job. Some educate themselves, learn about cultures, become social-climber, sort of like the modern day of Holly Golightly, then marry a millionaire. Some do both. It's a story about dream, ambition, transformation, and power.

I started sketching today, and um I want to portray the ambition, the youthness, transformation, and they're hardwork. Initially I want to make the looks very bold to show the contentment and confidence, but for the second thought, considering the economics condition and people's confidence, I think that these people would have a little bit of insecurities. Such as like, they fear that the money and power that they gained would somehow gone, so there isnt gonna be an end to they're hardwork. I think that Im gonna show this by making some of the piece slightly over the top, like a decoy, to distract people from their actual fear and insecurities. Anyhow, they're only sketches, just some ideas. May be I will show you the whole final drawing when I finish. Only If I feel confident about it. Ok?

Anyway, I thought this song would suits the materialisticness, like the plasctisness, and ambition to become riiiiiiiiich...





Ah anyway the first sketch I was thinking of Holly Gollightly slash Rita G on Kanye's video. Like how cool is thinking that modern day Holly killed Kanye?

America's Next Tyra's Mini Me

I've been watching America's Next Top Model Cycle 11, and I really like it. I like Marjorie, Lauren Brie (out) Elina, and McKey. Something kinda annoy me though, and as much as I think that the show would be just plain crap if Tyra stoped doing it, but it comes across to me that it has become too 'self-indulgent' for her. I mean, its like the whole show is just made to talk about her past modelling career, and to admire herself. Ok, firstly, look at the opening credit, Tyra's on it for almost half of it, when the competition was meant to be about the model hopefuls. More? Ok, in the first episode there was a part when they supposedly have a perfect model maker machine thingy, and it broke, and what came out of it? Tyra Banks everyone! It's like them saying, Tyra is the perfect model. Fact is, she's not even a model anymore. She doesnt look like a model anymore. More? Ok, in the last episode when she was demonstrating the signature pose, and she went on about her eyes as her signature pose, I was like, yeah right. It was all about Tyra. Too much things about Tyra. Even worse, Tyra always talks about the top model quality, and she often mention, personality, about the plus size, and smile with your eyes. I think she's just talking about herself. Top model means having Tyra's quality. And so, it is not a modelling competition, it's Tyra Banks-alike competition. May be they should call it America's Next Top Tyra's Mini Me. And Im not surprised why none of the winner are that successful. None of them are labelled top model in real life. Ah, I like the show though.
