Same mistake

Today as i headed back home for lunch, I happened upon a movie i had watched maybe last year or the year before - Gerard Butler's 'PS I love You'. Granted that i am in no way a chick flick buff, yet i found this one forgivable - even slightly enjoyable- because it was the very admirable love between a husband and wife, and the reality of the pain and loss made it very much more real than most fairy tale-esque flicks they churn out nowadays.

But anyway, check out the lyrics. Does it strike a chord with you? I was jsut thinking about making the same mistake again. . . . .(in more ways than 1 ok).

Anyway, here's to breaking the cycle!!


Same Mistake - James Blunt

So while I’m turning in my sheets
And once again I cannot sleep
Walk out the door and up the street
Look at the stars beneath my feet
Remember rights that I did wrong
So here I go

Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh

I’m not calling for a second chance
I’m screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don’t give me choice
Cause I’ll just make the same mistake again

Uhuhhhh

And maybe someday we will meet
And maybe talk but not just speak
Don’t buy the promises cause
There are no promises I keep
And my reflection troubles me
So here I go

Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh

I’m not calling for a second chance
I’m screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don’t give me choice
Cause I’ll just make the same mistake

I’m not calling for a second chance
I’m screaming at the top of my voice
Give me reason, but don’t give me choice
Cause I’ll just make the same mistake
again

Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh
Uhuh uhuh uhuh

So while I’m turning in my sheets (Uhuh uhuh)
And once again I cannot sleep (Uhuh uhuh)
Walk out the door and up the street (Uhuh uhuh)
Look at the stars, (Uhuh uhuh)
look at the stars, falling down (Uhuh uhuh)
And I wonder where (Uhuh uhuh)
Did I go wrong?

man oh man oh man!



Here it is!

I promised a while ago (well, i promised myself anyway) that i would post these pictures. Well anyways, take a deep breath boys and girls, and say hello to the car every man should at least drive once - the 2009 Ford Mustang!


Shown here with the classic pony crest up front. *gleams*

And in the back as well. . . . . . . (the GT model has the letters GT in place of the pony above. . .


The sleek and slightly raised back designed to increase the forward torque in motion. I don't know about that - but it makes it damn nice to look at for sure!


The front has the typical arched brow, a concept added to many modern cars (think BMW roadsters, the new mitsubishi lancer), which invokes a very neanderthal image of strngth. But i like how the 2009 mustang has very minimal strokes, and very blunt yet clean arches and cuts to make it really look strong and gets the right amount of head turns without being terribly obnoxious. It's like . . . "I'm a mustang. Now look the other way bub!"


Also very much desired is the vanity mustang font on the side (as if people did not already know). Its like a less attention-grabbing version of the drag strip paint job that goes from the hood to the trunk.



Well honestly i am definitely not a gear head. But the car has the 'rev rev' and 'vroom vroom' sound that all too much make u feel like wearing a tank top and get a tattoo (yeah maybe a little too extreme an analogy, but u get what i mean!). And the first few gears exhibit a surprising amount of kick, and jsut lounge forward with every step of the gas pedal.

All in all - its a mustang! =D
