I've clinched an A1 for my Malay 'O' levels. Alhamdulillah. the so-called tense is over. this result will be a stepping stone towards clinching more distinctions for the other subjects which I'll be taking this year in November. i've targetted myself 7 points for LIR5 or LIB5 (it's either the first or the latter). well not that I'll be able to achieve it anyway but have you ever heard of the saying that miracles sometime happen?
this is just random. to all poseurs out there who claim that they know so much about reggae and stuff, let me just make it clear that the "Rich Girl" song is not Gwen Stefani's original.

it's a remake of the song "If I Was A Rich Man" from the theatre performance of Fiddler on the Roof (I did a research on this). however though, she didn't write the lyrics to Rich Girl. someone already made a Rich Girl song. search for Lady Saw - If I Was A Rich Girl if you want to.

I heard this long before the one sung by Gwen and Eve came out. I owe my thanks to someone I met online though. he's a true reggae listener, I must say.

I'm no anti Gwen Stefani or whatsoever but don't you think it's annoying how most of her songs are actually remakes of others' and yet people claim of loving "her songs"? oh I love them too. her outfits donned in the video making of "her songs", I mean.

I think Gwen is better off with No Doubt. at least they don't practise acts of remaking songs, do they?
