Poetic Justice

saw this video of mandy moore at yahoo music videos, doing a cover on rihanna’s "umbrella," and it immediately captured my attention. wow. super wow. mandy did a slower version of the song and by doing so, showed how really melodic the song is! check it out on the Y music video site http://music.yahoo.com/promo-42778155-53-20070813.

i think this song will be my LSS for quite a while

i also love the lyrics of the song! it’s actually sweet (but mind that i’m a hopeless romantic). i post here mandy’s version:

umbrella

You had my heart
And we’ll never be worlds apart
Maybe in magazines
But you’ll still be my star
Baby, cause in the dark
You can see shiny cars
And that’s when you need me there
With you I’ll always share
Because…

When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I’ll be here forever
Said I’ll always be a friend
Took an oath, Im’a stick it out till the end
Now that it’s raining more than ever
Told you we’ll still love each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
Under my umbrella.

These fancy things
Will never come in between
You’re my entity
Here for infinity
When the world has took its part
When the world has dealt its cause
If the hand is hard
Together we’ll mend your heart
Because…

When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I’ll be here forever
Said I’ll always be a friend
Took an oath, Ima stick it out till the end
Now that it’s raining more than ever
Told you we’ll still love each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
Under my umbrella.

You can run into my arms
That’s okay don’t be alarm
Come in to me, there’s no distance in between, our love
So gon’ and let the rain pour
I’ll be all you need and more
Because…

When the sun shines, we’ll shine together
Told you I’ll be here forever
Said I’ll always be a friend
Took an oath, Ima stick it out till the end
Now it’s raining more than ever
Told you we’ll still love each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
Under my umbrella.
Under my umbrella.

wow. *sigh*

do you have a dog?

in our office, there are at least four of us who are crazy about our dogs. as you all know by now, roy and i have a mini pinscher named sascha, a real charmer.

have you heard of dogster? hahahaha its similar to friendster but its the dogs who make friends and not their masters. after exerting much effort to not succumb to temptation, i made an account for sascha. it seems crazy but for dog lovers like us, it just seem natural to show other people how much we chereish our pets.

here’s what roy and i look like simpsonized. as expected, roy chose his cool, casual self and i chose to appear as my lawyer personae. ;-D i wonder what role can we portray if ever we are given cameo appearances… hmmm… if i am to choose, it will be the sickeningly happy couple next-door. ha-ha-ha
