today, i watched In Her Shoes, starring Cameron D.
watched it alone, my first time.
i liked it.
u should watch it with gal frens. =) or alone, lyk i did.
anyway, after i watched the movie, i realised that tonight's entry
is gonna be dedicated to all the girls out there, pals or not.
see, being a girl is a special thing,
more than juz boobs and bums and humps.
(if anyone is going "really?", then u muz really be a testosterone filled being.
u had better be)
being a girl isnt abt being equal to a guy.
it's abt knowing ur abilities, ur strengths, ur weaknesses.
it's about knowing that u r bound to follow ur heart than ur head,
and sometimes it isnt alwaes right.
but most times, u will somehow find ur way back.
it's abt knowing that we change from an unassuming young girl,
to an adoslescent in search of an identity, to a young adult learning abt
responsibities, and so on.... we will alwaes feel insecure at times.
well, guys ( if not, who else right?) call it being neurotic,
i call it a reality check.
if not, we'll be filled with egos so huge like our male counterparts.
bring a girl is to go dancing, or shopping or indulging in double choc chip
ice cream to vent our frustrations.
but if we're all that bad, why do guys still fall for us?
they say behind every successful man is a woman.
i say she's there to give him guidance.
and lastly, to all de girls,
whether u are feelin down cos of family, rel'p work, sch, or anything else,
just remember that we are blessed with the best gift ever.
de heart.
never let anything, and especially anyone, make u feel tt being who we are
isnt all tt wonderful.
cos strip us bare of all de things we hold dear - our relationships,
material possessions, qualifications, responsibilties,
u and i both noe that we can hold our own fort.
to my girl frens who are feeling down at this very moment,
and u guys noe hu u r,
dears, even de most independent, don-wanna-be-tied down girls
dream of fairytales and prince charmings.
dun blame urself for wad cant be controlled,
but remember that you have ur own life, ur own rights.
and someone somewhere, will appreciate ur strengths,
will see ur flaws as perfection.
but in de meantime, don say that u cant go on by alone.
cos u can. and u are not alone.
and if u are a girl, you will noe wad i mean by tt. =)
carry your heart with me (i carry it in
my heart) i am never without it (anywhere
i go you go, my dear; and whatever is done
by only me is your doing, my darling)
i fear
no fate (for you are my fate, my sweet) i want
no world (for beautiful you are my world, my true)
and it's you are whatever a moon has always meant
and whatever a sun will always sing is you
here is the deepest secret nobody knows
(here is the root of the root and the bud of the bud
and the sky of the sky of a tree called life; which grows
higher than the soul can hope or mind can hide)
and this is the wonder that's keeping the stars apart
i carry your heart (i carry it in my heart)
