march 8 – international women’s day

today, march 8 is international women’s day.

i should have blog about this earlier but yesterday whole day and night was busy. also was thinking more of another march 8 significant event – the politcial tsunami in our country last year (1st anniversary for this year’s march 8).

actually the penang government’s women section (can’t remember the official name) did organise a whole day event on occasion of international women’s day at a hotel in tanjung bungah on 7 march, which is open to all. again, forgot to blog about it.

anyway since now is still march 8 and hey i’m a woman, i better put this post up – but nothing to say except to mention it. oh, since i have nothing to say, then i’ll CnP helen reddy’s popular song ‘i am woman’.

I am woman, hear me roar
In numbers too big to ignore
And I know too much to go back an’ pretend
’cause I’ve heard it all before
And I’ve been down there on the floor
No one’s ever gonna keep me down again

CHORUS
Oh yes I am wise
But it’s wisdom born of pain
Yes, I’ve paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to, I can do anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman

You can bend but never break me
’cause it only serves to make me
More determined to achieve my final goal
And I come back even stronger
Not a novice any longer
’cause you’ve deepened the conviction in my soul

CHORUS

I am woman watch me grow
See me standing toe to toe
As I spread my lovin’ arms across the land
But I’m still an embryo
With a long long way to go
Until I make my brother understand

Oh yes I am wise
But it’s wisdom born of pain
Yes, I’ve paid the price
But look how much I gained
If I have to I can face anything
I am strong (strong)
I am invincible (invincible)
I am woman
Oh, I am woman
I am invincible
I am strong

FADE
I am woman
I am invincible
I am strong
I am woman
