MEANING OF THE SONG “MEAN – TAYLOR SWIFT”

By :
Elsa Fadhila & Sarah Adilah

Mean - Taylor Swift

You, with your words like knives
And swords and weapons that you use against me
You, have knocked me off my feet again
Got me feeling like a nothing

You, with your voice like nails on a chalk board
calling me out when I'm wounded
You, picking on the weaker man
You can take me down
with just one single blow


PRE-CHORUS
But you don't know
What you don't know


CHORUS
Someday I'll be
Living in a big old city,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be
Big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean

Why you gotta be so mean?

You, with your switching sides
And your wildfire lies and your humiliation
You, have pointed out my flaws again
As if I don't already see them


I walk with my head down
Trying to block you out
'cause I never impress you
I just want to feel okay again

I bet you got pushed around
Somebody made you cold
But the cycle ends right now
'Cause you can't lead me down that road
And you don't know What you don't know

PRE-CHORUS
CHORUS

And I can see you years from now in a bar
Talking over a football game
With that same big loud opinion
But nobody's listening


Washed up and ranting about the same old bitter things
Drunken and rumbling on about
How I can't sing
But all you are is mean
All you are is mean
And a liar
And pathetic
And alone in life

And mean, and mean, and mean, and mean!

CHORUS
Someday I'll be
Living in a big old city,
And all you're ever gonna be is mean
Someday I'll be
Big enough so you can't hit me
And all you're ever gonna be is mean

This song is addressed for those who are being bullyed. This song tells about those people who are being dismissived by the mean people around them. The mean people always act arbitrary towards them.   The mean  people do not dignify them and they feel like they are being enslaved. The bullyers always exaggerating their fault even though they did a little mistake and also they always exacerbate every condition so it seems hard to them to survive.They seems being exile from their society. Everyone seems query their ability. No one grasp them. Their forcible bluff seems to ask them to forsake this world. It always hard for them to pretend not to scrutinize their giggle or whisper in front of their face. Grudge or what, but their harsh  humilitation. It’s a nuisance for them. The mean people degrade their dignity and diminish their self confident. Their introvert act seems to hinder all those weak people to attain success in their life. Those people slowly retreat and almost gave up. They make them rigid and without any deliberation, they dismantle all their flaws, they accuse them many things. It became a collapse of their dreams, the most lethal thing in their lifes.

 Because the mean people have repulse them. And it’s a such holocaust for them because they dont give them consent to thrive. But, before they gave up, they are still believe in the power of their dreams. They believe that promptly everything will change. People’s scorn  make a tremendous effect to them. They became more stronger to face this life. They realized that what the mean people said was only a hogwash. They believe that they are the one who made their self-determination, not those mean people. They can become a mammoth person, all what they need is persistence and strive. Vigorously and with their eagerness they study and study to become a success people. To prove to all people and also to the world about the notion that they don’t have any ability is wrong. No one can make them feel uncomfortable if they don’t concessive. Without their accord, no one can make them feel oppressed . They believe that someday they will be big enough so the mean people can’t hit them. They will be an utmost outstanding person. They will elevate their dignity. Because they keep cling to their contention. The point is, trial can make you become more better person. There’s no rainbow without rain. And that word prevail to those who believe.

It’s Too Late

(A Short Story By Sarah Adilah)

I don’t know how to explain this, I just want to blame my self at all. I really thought he was the one. I think one of the Disney’s story, Rapunzel maybe, would happened in my life but hahaha this idiot love story was over before it begun.

“Sarah!” someone is calling from back. I turned around, “Am I dreaming or what?” I said quetly to my self. Oh god, I blushed. How come? The most top student in this school know my name and calling me right now! I can’t believe. I can’t …
“Hey?” he smiled to me. I just screaming in my self quetly. “feels like I’m melting now.” Okey stop you’re too exaggerate,Sarah.

“Yes?” I replied. “Would you help me to drawing, Sarah?” he said. I think for a moment “Where did you know that I can drawing?” I hope I didn’t give him a wrong question. “Actually, I know your talent since you’re enter this school. When I found this paper in the rubbish” he show me a sheet of paper that I think I know so well about who I draw it for … Oh my godness, it’s the sketch of Fred, the man who I like, who standing in front of me right now. “We.. we .. Well, I ccc.. can explain this..” I said nervously. “That is true a sketch of you but really I don’t have any intention for drawing it and I..”

                “Stop, hehe I know you don't have any intention about that, you're a good girl.” He smiling again. “So, would you teach me to draw?” He asked me. I said “Yes, sure..” without any perspective because my mind just blank at that time.

“Ok, see you tomorrow after school at the library!” He told me. I just nodded. “Bye, Sarah!” he get into his motorcycle and leave me. I just can’t think anything right now, “Is today was true or I just dreaming?” I said to my self.

In the next day, exactly after school time I go to the library. I don’t know maybe I'm too enthusiastic, because I haven't seen Fred in that room. I wait for about 15 minutes, and he still didn’t come any yet. “Maybe he had an extra class today” I said to myself trying to be patient. Then I’m feeling so sleepy and finally fall asleep.

I started to dreaming about Fred, oh again. I dreaming that I leaned on his shoulder, sleeping and he just woke me up and say …..

“I see that.. your sketch is very beautiful, just like you Sarah.” Eh? I dimly hear that voice. The voice is near. It’s just like Fred voice, ah but I think it’s just my crazy little mind effects because too much think about him.

Then I woke up, I see Fred is beside of me. “Hey, feel better now? I’m sorry , I have some dealings with my friend that’s why I’m late.” He smiled as always. I shocked. It is just my feeling or my dreams is really really come true? Hey, don’t you see that Fred is beside me now?

“Sarah?” He dispelled my mind. “Um, sorry. It’s okay hehe. So can we started?” I asked him with my beautiful smile. “Uh, yeah okay..” Fred replied. But, his face getting red. It is probably… Ah no, maybe because the weather is hot.

In that time, for the first time I sit beside the boy who I always like all the time and I just feel like we’re have the same feelings each other.

Day by day. Fred and I just getting closer. But we still in the friendzone. I’m still afraid to tell about my feeling to him. And it just being a nuisance everytime when I think about it. I always take care of my feeling, I don’t want to pull it out from my heart.  I just believe, someday Fred will have that feeling too. I know, I’m too confident at all. I just waiting outside the lines, the lines between Fred and I. I believe someday Fred will hold my hand to get in that lines.

“Sarah, do you free on Thursday?” suddenly Fred asked me. “Yeah, why?” I replied. “I want to invite you to my house, i have something to show you” he replied.

Then the night is comes. I just prepare all for tonight, my dress and accessories, i choose them the best one for about 3 hours. Can’t you imagine that when the boys who you like invite you to his house? Of course you wanted to look beautiful. Then i go to his house, i just imagine how is Fred expression when seeing my appereance tonight.

“Ting tong” I press the bell button. Then someone is open the door. Oh fred! How handsome he is with his polo shirt and denim jeans, and wait his hair oh my god i just can say ‘he’s really a prince now’.

Fred invited me to dinner with him. I just can say “THANKYOU GOD, TODAY IS THE BEST DAY EVER. Suddenly he talked to me “You look beautiful, ehm” Fred started conversation. “Thanks” I blushed. “Emm so, what would you like to show to me? It’s your promises right?” I tried to hinder the akward situation. “Okay, but before it i want to say thanks to you for all Sarah.” He replied. “No problem, Fred.” I smiled. “Okey, then just follow me now” he walked into his room.

“Taraaaaa” he show me a painting. The painting is a girl, so beautiful. But, wait wait.. i think the girl is not me. Wait ....

“I just can say thanks very much to you Sarah, because of you i can paint my beautiful girlfriend face now. And i will send this painting to her in Australia.” He said.

 W..wh.what?! Am I blind or my ears is cannot hearing now? Am I wrong? Am I dreaming and get a nigthmare because tonight is a friday night? It is the end of this stupid love story? Why? I can’t believe god, after all this happened. I can’t.

                “Sar? Sarah? Hey?!” Fred wake me up from my stupid hopeless. Yeah, it just my fault. I don’t know and i never asked about his love, about whom he loved, about.. about ah whatever.
“Fred, can i just go home now? I feel sick” I said to Fred quickly. Fred is confused, he wanted to  ask but i just ignore and leave him. Yeah i really sick now Fred, because of you. But i know it’s not all your fault. But i just want to stop it all right now. Goodbye, Fred. It’s just too late for me, very late to always hoping you.

Taylor Swift - Fifteen

Liriknya suka banget <3

pas banget buat yang baru masuk sma hahahaha :3

Nih liriknya, diresapin~

You take a deep breath and you walk through the doors
It's the morning of your very first day
And you say hi to your friends you ain't seen in a while
Try and stay out of everybody's way

It's your freshman year and you're gonna be here
For the next four years in this town
Hoping one of those senior boys will wink at you and say
"You know, I haven't seen you around before"

'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen feeling like there's nothing to figure out
Well, count to ten, take it in
This is life before you know who you're gonna be
Fifteen

You sit in class next to a redhead named Abigail
And soon enough you're best friends
Laughing at the other girls who think they're so cool
We'll be outta here as soon as we can

And then you're on your very first date and he's got a car
And you're feeling like flying
And you're momma's waiting up and you're thinking he's the one
And you're dancing 'round your room when the night ends
When the night ends

'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
When you're fifteen and your first kiss
Makes your head spin 'round
But in your life you'll do things greater than
Dating the boy on the football team
But I didn't know it at fifteen

When all you wanted was to be wanted
Wish you could go back and tell yourself what you know now

Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday
But I realized some bigger dreams of mine
And Abigail gave everything she had to a boy
Who changed his mind and we both cried

'Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen, don't forget to look before you fall
I've found time can heal most anything
And you just might find who you're supposed to be
I didn't know who I was supposed to be at fifteen
la la la la la
Your very first day
Take a deep breath girl
Take a deep breath as you walk through the doors

How To Be A Good Muslimah - By Sarah Adilah

Assalamualaikum wr. wb~~~( /^o^)/
Kali ini saya akan berbagi opini dan sharing seputar Hijab & Wanita Muslimah. Dibaca yaa, telimakacih. Check it out^^

tahu kan? mayoritas penduduk di Indonesia tercinta adalah yang beragama Muslim, dan yang paling banyak sekarang berperan yaitu wanita, perempuan ataupun cewek. Tapi pada sadar ga sih? rata-rata wanita yang mengaku beragama Islam, mengaku muslimah namun..... namun apa? Semua hal yang ia lakukan keluar dari garis kodrat sebagai wanita Muslimah yang dipedomankan pada kitab suci Al-Quran.

Apa saja? ('--')

1. "Hari gini pake hijab? Plis deh", mungkin itu jawaban mereka yang belum terketuk pintu hidayahnya. apa yg menyebabkan turun temurun seperti itu? Yap, budaya pasang-hijab-saat-sekolah-pas-pulang-umbar-aurat sekarang marak dilakukan remaja-remaja yang mengaku muslimah, baik dikota-kota besar maupun diperkampungan kecil sekalipun. Hijab hanya dianggap bagian "seragam wajib sekolah" atau mungkin "acara keagaaman" saja. Lepas dari itu semua, hijab cuma dilipat dan disimpan rapi di dalam lemari. Itu masih yang ragu memakai hijab, tapi ada juga yang mengaku muslimah tapi fliphair kesana kemari. terkadang bahkan sulit dibedakan mana umat Muslim dan bukan. Karena tanpa hijab seorang muslimah tidak bisa disebut muslimah. Catet.

2. "Sudah pakai jilbab kok" - tapi.... jilbabnya kependekan,pakaiannya ketat, transparan dan sangat tipiiiiiiis. Bahkan ada yg biasa sudah kelihatan dari luar baju (maaf) tali dalamannya, apalagi sudah terlihat warna kulitnya sama saja seperti telanjang bukan?. Bahaya banget kan bisa mengundang nafsu lelaki? Nah sedangkan Tujuan berhijab salah satunya adalah menghindari dari kejahatan manusia maupun syetan. Tapi.. kalau berhijab pakaiannya seperti yg saya sebut tadi, yaa itu mah sama aja kan?  Kewajiban berhijab pun sudah ditegaskan dalam Al-Quran: 

وَقُلْ لِلْمُؤْمِنَاتِ يَغْضُضْنَ مِنْ أَبْصَارِهِنَّ وَيَحْفَظْنَ فُرُوجَهُنَّ وَلَا يُبْدِينَ زِينَتَهُنَّ إِلَّا مَا ظَهَرَ مِنْهَا وَلْيَضْرِبْنَ بِخُمُرِهِنَّ عَلَى جُيُوبِهِنَّ

" Katakanlah kepada wanita yang beriman : Hendaklah mereka menahan pandangan mereka   dan memelihara kemaluan mereka, dan janganlah mereka menampakkan perhiasan mereka kecuali yang (biasa) nampak daripadanya. Dan hendaklah mereka menutup kain tudung ke dadanya…" (Al-Nuur : 31)

3. "Kan yang penting aurat tertutup..." - iya tertutup girls, tapi... tertutup dalam arti "terlindungi" bukan "terbungkus". tau kan lolipop yang dibungkus? ibarat itu, tertutup tapi bentuk lolipop nya nampak dari luar bisa diliat langsung. sedangkan terlindungi itu ibarat dus susu bubuk, rapi dan apa yang ada didalamnya tak ada yg mengetahui kecuali penciptanya, dia sendiri dan muhrim yg pantas melihat karena bentuk itu tidak pernah ia perlihatkan pada orang yang tidak pantas utk melihatnya. Right?
Nih biar lebih jelasnya, di Al-Quran juga disebutkan:

يَا أَيُّهَا النَّبِيُّ قُلْ لِأَزْوَاجِكَ وَبَنَاتِكَ وَنِسَاءِ الْمُؤْمِنِينَ يُدْنِينَ عَلَيْهِنَّ مِنْ جَلَابِيبِهِنَّ ذَلِكَ أَدْنَى أَنْ يُعْرَفْنَ فَلَا يُؤْذَيْنَ وَكَانَ اللَّهُ غَفُورًا رَحِيمًا

"Hai Nabi, katakanlah kepada isteri-isterimu, anak-anak perempuanmu dan isteri-isteri orang mukmin : “Hendaklah mereka menghulurkan jilbabnya ke seluruh tubuh mereka”. Yang demikian itu supaya mereka lebih mudah untuk dikenal, kerana itu mereka tidak diganggu. Dan Allah adalah Maha Pengampun lagi Maha Penyayang." (al-Ahzab : 59)

4. Sudah tertutup, tapi... pakaiannya menyerupai laki-laki. Budaya celana jeans super ketat + kaos ketat sekarang menjadi trend muslimah, padahal sekali-kali di Al-Quran ditegaskan janganlah menampakkan lekuk tubuhmu. Suka sedih bila melihat muslimah yg pakai jeans super ketat sampai bentuk pantatnya (maaf) terlihat jelas dan bahkan ketika dia menunduk terlihatlah dalamannya, buruk bukan?. Saya juga termasuk penggemar celana jeans, tetapi setelah mendalami beberapa surah di Al-Quran tentang wanita, dan nasihat orang tua saya mulai sadar dan tergerak untuk menggunakan rok ^^ semoga kalian yg membaca bisa juga perlahan-lahan berubah ya. Memang sulit, tapi kalau kita punya niat berubah karena Allah, karena takut siksa-Nya insyaallah bisa kok. Sungguh, "sebaik-baiknya perhiasan dunia adalah wanita shalihah" [HR.Muslim]

5. About make up - hoho tentunya sekarang banyak wanita muslimah yg berlomba-lomba menggunakan kosmetik dan perawatan wajah secara berlebihan agar terlihat cantik dihadapan umum. Tapi tahukah girls? Allah sama sekali tidak menyukai orang-orang yang berlebihan dan Allah tidak menyukai umatnya yang tidak mensyukuri apa yang telah diberikan padanya. make up yang berlebihan juga menjerumuskan kamu kepada niat jahat lelaki, astagfirullah. Lebih baik perawatan wajah menggunakan tradisional saja, lebih berkhasiat dan berkah serta cantiknya alami kan dan menggunakan make up seadanya. oke ^o^


Nah, sudah pada tahu kan? ^^ semoga bukan cuma sekedar dibaca saja ya, tapi bisa diambil pelajaran dan diterapkan. Ingat, dunia ini bukan apa-apa, hanya tempat bernaung sementara. kehidupan yang kekal adalah di akhirat. jadi mau pilih apa? Bahagia dunia sementara, sengsara akhirat selamanya atau dunia akhirat bahagia?
tenang, hijab dan pakaian yang tertutup tidak mengurangi kecantikanmu girls. malah menambah kecantikanmu menjadi berlipat-lipat. para lelaki juga segan bila engkau lewat, dan mereka tidak berani mengganggumu ataupun mempunyai niat yg tidak baik kepadamu. Kamu juga akan selalu cantik di mata Allah, malaikat dan Rasul, bukan cuma di hadapan manusia. Dan tahukah kamu girls? Bila auratmu selalu tertutup dan senantiasa bersujud pada-Nya bidadari-bidadari surga pun akan cemburu terhadapmu. SubhanaAllah. Jadi masih berpikir dua kali buat berkomitmen pakai jilbab? jangan sampai hijab pertama dan terakhir kita itu pas diliang lahat ya, naudzubillah. Semoga artikel ini berguna, Jadilah Muslimah Seutuhnya! ;)

Cerbung: Comliplicated Love Story

Lanjutan Part 1: He Is My Hero

......

Dengan berani dan tekad bulat aku pun berkata “SIALAN LO! DASAR BANGSAT!!!” tanpa berpikir aku langsung keluar meloncat dari angkot itu, kebetulan aku duduk dekat pintu jadi aku dengan mudah keluar dari angkot itu.
“BRUKK!!” aku terjatuh, badanku rasanya sakit semua terutama pantatku. “Auuwwws!” aku mengerang. Tapi untuk menghindari angkot tersebut mengejar balik, aku pun memutuskan untuk lari.

Sementara itu ditempat lain, daerah perumahan, sekitar bukit…

“Woy, bro! Gue cabut duluan ya? Udah malem nih!”. “Oh yoai, sip Ga. Hati-hati lu!”
“Siip bro!”. Motor sport merah itu segera melaju dengan kencang, platnya bertuliskan B 4264 CS (bacanya Arga), cowok super cool dengan tampang manis tapi dingin banget, percuma ya? Malam itu dia habis kerja kelompok dari rumah Ivan, dia memutuskan cabut duluan soalnya takut diomelin sama mamanya. Tiba -tiba dia melihat seorang cewek sedang dikejar-kejar angkot. Tanpa pikir panjang, dia tahu bahwa cewek itu pasti ingin diperkosa oleh supir angkot tersebut. Dia pun menambah kecepatan laju motornya. “BRUUMM..!!”

Kita kembali ke cewek yang sedang di kejar-kejar angkot sialan tadi. Namanya Rara, cewek cantik dengan lesung pipit, berkacamata minus 2. Badannya langsing, tinggi. Kulitnya kuning langsat. Berwajah oriental dengan alis tebal ,mata belo ,hidung agak mancung dan berbibir tipis. Ditambah dia murid yang pintar disekolah. Wah! mana gak difans sama cowok-cowok tuh? Dah pintar, cantik lagi! Tapi kalo soal cinta, jangan ditanya. Dia paling gak suka sama yang namanya CINTA. Udah berulang kali dan berpuluh kali cowok di sekolah nembak dia, mulai dari cowok yang paling ganteng-terpopuler, ganteng-terplayboy,ganteng-tersmart, sampai yang aneh-aneh mulai dari idiot, gila, autis, sampe yang culun-culun ikut-ikutan nembak dan bilang kata-kata yang sama! “Aku cinta kamu, maukah kamu jadi pacarku?” And of course jawabannya adalah “TIDAK” dengan muka datar. Belagu ya ini anak? Hahaha, bukannya belagu tapi dia bego. Gak ngerti apa itu cinta! Eh udah ah, kok gw jadi nyeritain hidup dia sih? Dia kan lagi dikejar-kejar sama supir angkot sialan itu? Maaf ya pembaca. ^^

Oke oke cukup , makasih ya udah ceritain, klimaks-klimaks kepopuleranku di sekolah. Tapi yang paling penting sekarang adalah aku masih dikejar-kejar sama supir angkot itu, dengan menahan sakitnya pantatku yang terjatuh diatas kerikil tadi, aku lari, terus lari dan tanpa memperdulikan apapun yang di depanku! Mau badai, tsunami, setan, kuntil, pocong, genderuwo kek. Yang aku tahu aku harus kabur saat ini juga! Ketika aku lari, tiba—tiba sebuah motor sport merah hampir menabrakku.
“Eh hati-hati dong! Udah tau gue lagi dikejar-kejar angkot sialan itu!” omelku pada orang yang kaca helmnya pelangi, membuatku tidak bisa melihat wajahnya. “Cepetan naik! Mau selamat gak?!” sebuah suara keluar dari balik helm itu. Dengan segera dan tanpa pikir panjang, aku pun lagsung naik motor sport merah itu, orang itu segera melaju kencang! “WUSSHHHH~!”

Aku berbalik kearah angkot itu, memberi mereka jari tengah ku! Bukan cuma itu, aku gak sebodoh yang kalian kira, dengan sergap aku mencatat plat kuning angkot tersebut B 2203 F! Yap, kalo udah sampai aku langsung lapor polisi. Terlihat raut wajah supir angkot itu, penuh amarah. Dia menendang ban mobilnya “CEWEK SIALAN!”, lalu kakinya kesakitan sendiri. Dasar supir angkot aneh.

Aku tersenyum puas. Tapi aku masih penasaran. Siapakah cowok yang menyelamatkanku ini? Wajah siapa dibalik helm berkaca pelangi ini? Apakah dia pahlawan kemalaman ? Ataukah jodohku.. *PLAK! , entahlah. Yang penting saat ini aku bisa selamat dari supir angkot sialan itu.
