Pretty women wonder where my secret lies.I’m not cute or built to suit a fashion model’s sizeBut when I start to tell them,They think I’m telling lies.I say,It’s in the reach of my armsThe span of my hips,The stride of my step,The curl of my lips.I’m a womanPhenomenally.Phenomenal woman,That’s me.I walk into a roomJust as cool as you please,And to a man,The fellows stand orFall down on their knees.Then they swarm around me,A hive of honey bees.I say,It’s the fire in my eyes,And the flash of my teeth,The swing in my waist,And the joy in my feet.I’m a womanPhenomenally.Phenomenal woman,That’s me.Men themselves have wonderedWhat they see in me.They try so muchBut they can’t touchMy inner mystery.When I try to show themThey say they still can’t see.I say,It’s in the arch of my back,The sun of my smile,The ride of my breasts,The grace of my style.I’m a womanPhenomenally.Phenomenal woman,That’s me.Now you understandJust why my head’s not bowed.I don’t shout or jump aboutOr have to talk real loud.When you see me passingIt ought to make you proud.I say,It’s in the click of my heels,The bend of my hair,the palm of my hand,The need of my care,’Cause I’m a womanPhenomenally.Phenomenal woman,That’s me. ~Maya Angelou~
I’m so tired… I cannot take it anymore…
My head’s gonna explode!!! I’ve been extremely tied up with work I haven’t got time for myself anymore… To make this worst, Shaun’s doing his reservist this week. Man, I miss him… Yah, he comes home every night but still; the thought of not having him at home it just crappy ah…
I haven’t been the best partner to him these past few months… I’m so stressed out with work that i tend to take it out on him. I feel bloody bad and I really don’t mean to but I can’t help it. He’s so sweet about it and all always trying to make my day better. I swear, I dunno wat i’ll do now without him.
Now, onto a serious note.
I’m reading this extremely powerful book by Danielle Steel. It’s been a long while since I last read one of her books. I didn’t have anything else to read and I was just bored so I just borrowed mom-in-law’s book. I can’t seem to put the book down now. "Echoes" is the title of the book and I do believe that it’s really one of her best books I’ve ever read.
If you have read the book, I’m sorry to say this but I DON’T CARE what you think about the book. If you have not read the book, here’s a summary:-
World War II; French Catholic Boy & German Jewish Girl; fall in love; families against it; disowns boy & girl; Boy & girl get married; have 2 kids; Boy dies; Girl goes crazy (not really she’s just depressed no family and all)… Anyways, that’s all I’ve read till now. Don’t really have time to read but I try to when I have the time to.
I’m gonna go scuba diving… FINALLY… Now that I’ve got the clubbing bullshit outta the way, I’ve got energy to wake up in the bloody morning and do things that are more rewarding. I’ve accomplished more things than I can ever imagine. After 26 bloody years that I start to think, funny how finally settling down changes ppl and their mind sets; sometimes… I work in a law firm lor, divorce cases are not funny ah… Ppl cheat on the spouses in very very funny situations.
There’s this client of mine… Haiya, too tired to type… Tell ya’ll another day ah. Till then…
