Cheetah girls- cinderella (full)

"Cinderella"

[GALLERIA:]
When I was just a little girl,
My mama used to tuck me into bed,
And she'd read me a story.

[CHANEL:]
It always was about a princess in distress
And how a guy would save her
And end up with the glory.

[DORINDA:]
I'd lie in bed
And think about
The person that I wanted to be,

[AQUA:]
Then one day I realized
The fairy tale life wasn?t for me.

[CHORUS ? ALL:]
I don?t wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free (Come and set me free)
I don?t wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh no will survive
Unless somebody's on my side
Don't wanna be
No, no, no one else.
I?d rather rescue myself.

[ALL:]
Someday I'm gonna find Someone
Who wants my soul, heart and mind
Whos not afraid to show that he loves me
Somebody who will understand im happy just the way i am
Dont need nobody taking care of me
(i will be there)I will be there for him just as strong as he will be there for me
when i give myself then it has got to be an equal thing

[CHORUS ? ALL:]
I don?t wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free (Come and set me free)
I don?t wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh no will survive
Unless somebody's on my side
Don't wanna be
No, no, no one else.
I?d rather rescue myself.

[ALL:]
I can slay (I can slay) my own dragons. (My own dragons)
I can dream my own dreams. (My own dreams)
My knight in shining armor (shining armor) is me.
So I'm gonna set me free.

[CHORUS ? ALL:]
I don?t wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody to come and set me free.
I don?t wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh no will survive
Unless somebody's on my side

I don?t wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody (oh -Oh) to come and set me free.
I don?t wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh no will survive
Unless somebody's on my side
Don't wanna depend
on, no one else.
I?d rather rescue myself.

I don?t wanna be like Cinderella,
Sitting in a dark, cold, dusty cellar,
Waiting for somebody (oh -Oh)to come and set me free.
I don?t wanna be like someone waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
Oh no will survive
Unless somebody's on my side
Don't wanna depend
on, no one else.
I?d rather rescue myself.

where's your kingdom of heaven?


i officially caught the "Kingdom of Heaven" starring Olando Bloom(!!!!) 4 times.
twice at the theatres and twice on cable.
anyone on for another session?

for the superficail reasons, it stars gorgeouse Olando Bloom in a knight's suit, riding a horse.
who can resist that???

well, other than that, this is actually a very good movie which touches on many issues that really needs serious pondering like faith and religion, war and love.

the summary of this story is that the Christians and the Islams are fighting to gain control over the holy city, Jeruselem.
When the right hand man of the king,Godfree, a knight is about to die, he calls upon his handsome son Ballian, who is a blacksmith to protect the holy land, the king and its people.
this handsome son of his comes and turns out to be even more capable than his father, gaining the king's trust.
For the villans, jealous brother in law of the king, who will take over the throne once the king dies of his disease, finds ways and means to bring Ballin down and to create animosity between the muslims and the christians
...................................................................................................................................
in the end, Balian led their army and faught bravely against the muslims, but surrenders Jeruselem to them to avoid more bloodshed.

what is really interesting about the show is that at the end, when Balian asks Salladin what is Jerusellem worth, Salladin said nothing, everything.
HOW CAN NOTHING BE EVERYTHING???
nothing den fight for what???

for the final battle when the christians are about to lose
the priest, which is supposed to be the super holy and pious one actually said:
"Convert to Isam, repent later."
it's freaking ironic to hear it coming out from a priest.

i've been thinking about it for a long time.
what does havign a religion actually mean?
my parents are buddhist, so by default, i'm supposed to be one as well.
but does it work this way?
i believe that every religion seeks to bring out the best in everyone.
teaching right moral values like not killing, not backstabbing, that kind of stuff.
so why are peole from different religion trying to bring one another down?

i believe religion is in your mind and your heart.
it's basically a matter of choice.
everyday, you choose if you want to do good or evil.
simple as that.
you do not have to build to fancy fancy buildings
go to places of worship, abstain from certain food
or make huge sacrifices just to prove you are a good person.

this movie allows one to think alot
good food for thought, now that we are so free with the holidays coming

catch it on start movie or DVD
