A Whole New World

I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?

I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride

A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming

A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Now I'm in a whole new world with you

Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky

A whole new world
Don't you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
Hold your breath - it gets better
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be

A whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-letter
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you

A whole new world
That's where we'll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me

Heard this on radio. (Yes, i listens to light and easy, sometimes) This song triggers vague memories of Aladdin taking Jasmine on a magic carpet ride, i remember it ended with them sitting on a rooftop watching fireworks. Awww..how romantic! and oh my, the words.

I can never describe my sentiments towards this song and the movie. Amazing. It makes me feels so happy yet anxious and excited, all at the same time like i'm the one on the magic carpet. So many emotions (not only the ones i've mentioned above) blunder into one and the capacity to store it all is just not enough so much so it overwhelms me, all the time. Feels like bursting of happiness! haha..

Yes, and i'm well aware of the facts that disney movies does normally gives this kind of effect on people with it's happy endings and all. Somehow, i particularly liked this movie, way way more than any other disney production. Somehow the singing complements the animation and everything seems so.. so.. perfect.

Maybe it's the lyrics, maybe the 'prince/princess' settings, or the magic carpet rides. All of it had seemed so perfect through the eyes of a 5 year old who have yet to understand the romance in it. Even now, i still have that tingling feeling of happiness as i recount all those blissful times i've watched this movie as a kid. I've got to watch it again, soon. =)

Excited.Bout.Genting. =D

I can't sleep. Too excited about tomorrow's Genting trip, but right now, i'm bored silly. Yes, bored n silly.

The last time i went Genting must have been bout 2 years ago, went to the theme park, watched the fireworks display on New Year eve n came back down(it was awesome btw). That, was the 1st time i've ever sat on the space shot. I could still remember that we(me, my older bro n cousin) lined up for 1.5 hours for it. In the end, i chickened out (coz i'm a girl k!). Ok lar, that's not a good reason, but i'm really afraid of heights. I screamed, sitting in a farris wheel when i was young. Since then, no more farris wheel for me. However, no use in chickening out, my older brother blocked me from squeezing out of the line. When it was our turn, he pushed me in. What a good brother la!

So i went on it lor..oh, n it was my cousin brother 1st time too, n he, like me, is afraid of great heights.(Good! That makes the both of us!) I took my place between my brother n cousin, n i insisted on holding their hands all the way. "u dun let go har.." i told them both. n so, the machine rises n rises n rises with us on it..

My brother told me once that it will stop for 10s on the peak before pulling us down, n that, i never forget. So, on reaching the peak, i started counting in my heart. Weird, i can count n pray at the same time. Anyway, i think i was praying so fervently that i didn't notice i have counted till 12. After 12, i was like 'ei?' n the horror begins.

We were going down so fast, it was definately faster than free-falling, faster than the speed gravity can pull u down anywhere on earth or any other planet in the solar system. I screamed. I heard my brother and cousin screaming. A dozen people scream. My hands and feet grew numb in that short span of time, but still, i managed to hold on tight to both of their hands for my dear life.

When we reach the ground, i was so numb i could barely stand. (So were my cousin, haha!) All in all, i was glad that my feet finally touch the ground with my head still attached to it. Estatic, that now i can finally boast that i had taken a ride on the infamous space shot. (hah!) but i dun think i'll ever have the chance to talk bout myself going for a second round though. *shudder*

Well..I'm really excited bout going on the flying coaster, cyclone n corkscrew. It gets your adrenaline pumping, just waiting in line causes anxiety. No! Just thinking bout getting on it tmrw causes anxiety!

Lord,
i pray that it will not rain tomorrow, neither will it be too hot. Please provide. Keep us in the pink of health so that we can enjoy everything to the max. Keep us all save n sound esp during our journey there n back. Oh, n help us to hav fun without going overboard in all that we do! Thanks heavenly Daddy! In Jesus name, amen.

Good, now i have 2 hours to sleep before i have to wake up to travel to kl to meet my friends. (so many 'to'!! haha..)
Genting, here i come! =)

Smile - Unc Kracker

You're better then the best
I'm lucky just to linger in your light
Cooler then the flip side of my pillow, that's right
Completely unaware
Nothing can compare to where you send me,
Lets me know that it's ok, yeah it's ok
And the moments where my good times start to fade

[Chorus]
You make me smile like the sun
Fall out of bed, sing like bird
Dizzy in my head, spin like a record
Crazy on a Sunday night
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild
Ohh, you make me smile

Even when you're gone
Somehow you come along
Just like a flower poking the sidewalk crack and just like that
You steal away the rain and just like that

[chorus]

Don't know how I lived without you
Cuz everytime that I get around you
I see the best of me inside your eyes
You make me smile
You make me dance like a fool
Forget how to breathe
Shine like gold, buzz like a bee
Just the thought of you can drive me wild

[chorus]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This song had been storming in my head for a week, although i only knows how to sing the chorus. haha.. (n ya lar, everytime i heard it being played on the radio, i waited for the chorus)

This is hilarious!

KUALA LUMPUR — Tenaga Nasional Berhad (TNB), Malaysia’s premier energy provider today announced that they were taking legal action against the World Wildlife Foundation (WWF) for organising the Earth Hour, a global movement that makes a stand against climate change by turning off all non-essential lights and electrical equipment for an hour every year.

In a Press conference, TNB president and CEO Dato’ Sri Che Khalib Mohd Noh said that the annual worldwide symbolic gesture, which this year would be observed this Saturday at 8.30pm, is nothing more than an ‘arrogant and thoughtless viral movement’ aimed to hurt power companies such as TNB.

“Obviously these green-minded fellows think they’re really cute, organising such an irresponsible campaign,” said Che Khalib angrily. “They say ‘turn off your lights for an hour’ and people do. I bet that really makes them feel all powerful."

“What these western colonialists fail to grasp is how such drastic action affects the poor companies like us. One hour of unused electricity means an hour of wastage for TNB. Did you know that last year’s Earth Hour costed us millions in unrealised revenue?” asked Che Khalib, seething.

“How do you think that affected our production? We couldn’t exactly turn off our power plants just because a large number of Malaysians turn off their lights at the same time. So imagine all that wasted energy.

“This year, we expect even more people to fall for this global con-job,” added Che Khalib. “So there’ll be more lights turned off. KL alone would be engulfed in darkness. Yes, sure, it may seem fun to some, running around in complete darkness. But that also means TNB would get less money. Tell me, what am I supposed to say to the kids of this electrical technician when we can’t give bonus this year?” asked Che Khalib, as he pointed to a TNB staff manning the lights for the Press conference.

He added, “In light of such inconsiderate actions by these tree huggers, TNB has no choice but to take legal action against the Earth Hour organisers, WWF. We’ll wait for our accountants to come back with the loss figure after this year’s Earth Hour, and we plan to sue them for that same amount. We may even add a hundred million ringgit or so, to teach them a lesson.”

Che Khalib also reminded Malaysians to ignore the Earth Hour, calling it a ‘cultural invasion, a concerted assault by extreme liberal forces aimed to destabilise poorer nations’.

“We are Malaysians, and we should be proud of our lights. Every night we should go out and see the beautiful sparkling lights in our city skylines. Don’t be ashamed of the lights,” said Che Khalib, as he unveiled a set of pictures showing the Petronas Twin Towers and the surrounding buildings consequently going dark during last year’s Earth Hour.



DARK TIMES: KLCC buildings going dark last year

“See this? See how ugly, gloomy and dark the last picture is? God knows how many people tripped over things and hurt themselves in the complete darkness, not to mention the number of bad people going around doing naughty things, knowing the authorities could not see them.

“Let’s reverse the order of these pictures this year, and fight for the rights to our lights,” continued Che Khalib. “Let’s unite as 1Malaysia, and tell these green terrorists that we will not go dark! We will not switch off! Let’s tell them that we love our lights!

“POWERRR… EXTREME!” he screamed, as powerful clusters of foglamps flooded the conference room with ultra-bright and hot light, temporarily blinding everyone present, and signalling the end of the Press conference.

I dun think i hav ever seen news as ridiculous n funny as this! Although it is claimed to be published by Berita Harian, i think it's not true though. Seriously, how can the CEO of TNB be so inconsiderate n stupid? (Power Extreme? LOL!!!) Nonetheless, good entertainment!
