Beginning Today

I was dropping my EC card and noticed that almost all blogs I came across with have this common post – on Barack Obama and the phenomenal Inaugural Ceremonies last night.  It was overwhelming even to read the headlines in the newspaper this morning.  I was swayed to post about it, too.  But yesterday’s ceremony was just an intro to Barack’s life as the new President of USA.  Today is his first official day to put his words into action.  And the world starts counting on him.  I hope he’ll not execute the office of President to the United States faithfully.  Lol! (Seemed the oath-giver was more nervous than Obama himself ).

Anyhow, it was the all’s well that ends well day for everybody.  Beginning today, the man of history faces his challenges onwards.  And I would like to remember this day by a song which title keeps popping in my mind but not the lyrics.


Beginning Today (Performed by: Agot Isidro)

Beginning today I promise you
I give my heart to you
Beginning today I promise to
Never part from you

From now on I will be right by your side
And I swear other things I’ll put aside
Beginning today
Beginning today
(I promise you I give my heart to you)

Beginning today there’s no one else
On my mind
Beginning today there’s nobody else
Right here inside my heart

From now on I will be right by your side
And I swear other things I’ll put aside
From now on there’ll be no one else on my mind
Beginning today (Beginning today)
Beginning today
(I promise you)
Beginning today
(I give my heart to you)

From now on I will be right by your side
And I’d swear other things I’ll put aside
From now on there’ll be no one else on my mind
Beginning today (Beginning today)
Beginning today

And I’d swear other things I’ll put aside
From now on there’ll be no one else on my mind
Beginning today

    I agree, Rozella. I’m sure he will wipe out all shame and scams that the previous leaders had put on the USA.

    Joy, I wonder kung bakit title lang ang naaalala ko sa kantang ito, hehee. I’m hoping, too.

    Beginning today, I’ll blog more often! nah!!! I lost all my links when I redid all my HTML code to come up with a new look. Kainis! So, I’m kinda crawling the links to retrieve them – parang bot ano! Kumusta na u?

    Maricris, you seem to have more time for blogging now. I envy you. Huh! I don’t like it when my site messes up, so I know how you’re feeling about losing your links.

    Huhuu! I’m surviving the winter here, I always do. Thanks for asking. I wish I could just stay at home and laze around.

    Hahaa! Ganyan din sana ang gagawin ko pero ang hirap. Kahit may work ako kinabukasan di pa rin ako nakakatulog ng early.
