Once upon a time......

...... and they live happily ever after.

Sound familiar?

Yes, this is a fairy tale and that is how it usually begin and end.

Also, there is always a charming prince came to rescue in the end

Now, tell me, who do not like fairy tales??

I believe everyone especially girl likes it and hope to live like a fairy tale, find a prince charming and live happily ever after....

Yes, I like fairy tales. I really really do.

My top 3 favourites are Cinderella, Rapunzel and Little Mermaid...

Back to reality... the truth is cruel and there isn't any fairy tale at all...

Hope to live happily ever after? Nah.. don't think about it....

Prince Charming with white horse? No such thing...

Yes, it is time for me to grow up.

I know i should not believe in fairy tales anymore.

Wondering why i suddenly talk all these craps?

It is because i came across with this song today.

Song of the day: Cinderella by Tata Young

Look at the lyrics:

When I was just a little girl
My momma used to tuck me into bed and she read me a story
It always was about a Princess in distress
And how a guy would save her and end up with the glory

I'd lie in bed and think about the person that I wanted to be
Then one day I realized the fairy tale life wasn't for me

[Chorus]
I don't wanna be like Cinderella
Sittin' in a dark old dusty cellar
Waiting for somebody, to come and set me free
I don't wanna be like Snow White waiting
For a handsome prince to come and save me
On a horse of white, unless we're riding side by side
Don't want to depend on no-one else
I'd rather rescue myself

Someday I'm gonna find someone who wants my soul, heart and mind
Who's not afraid to show that he loves me
Somebody who will understand I'm happy just the way I am Don't need nobody taking care of me

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]

I can slay, my own dragon
I can dream, my own dreams
My knight in shining armour is me
So I'm gonna set me free

[Chorus]

I think this song really suit my feeling.

I rather rescue myself than waiting for somebody to save me.

Don't wanna depend on someone else, I'm gonna set myself free.

Someday I'm gonna find someone who wants my soul, heart and mind.

Somebody who will understand I'm happy just the way I am.

p/s: another song that suit this post is Cinderella by Sweetbox (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zyZ6ewGcWG0). It's totally different.
