Singing My Song

~Lyrics~

"Talking"

(Me Talking)

Meilin eyes flew open to the sound of her alarm blasting. She leaned over trying to turn it off, but she heard some lyrics she once heard before and decided to leave it on.

~Oohhh, Yeah, Oooh Huh
I woke up this morning with a smile on my face
And Nobody's gonna bring me down today
Been feeling like nothings been going my way lately
So I decided right here and now that my outlooks gotta change ~

She smiled at the lyrics, knowing that today was going to be a great day even if she was stuck with the alumni at her law school. She was having a great delirium of one certain person on a guillotine just waiting for the masked man to let go, letting her airhead get sliced. It was a quite bloody and disturbing fantasy, but her 'co-worker' deserved something worse than death. Today, Meilin had omnipotence and nothing was going to get in her way.

She smirked voluptuously as she got out of bed pulling down her angelic garments. Heading towards the shower the song played on.

~That's why I'm gonna
Say goodbye to all the tears I've cried
For every time somebody hurt my pride
Feeling like they won't let me live life
And Take the time to look at what is mine~

She let the water warm up, fogging the mirrors as her faded reflection disappeared. She licked her lips subconsciously as she entered the boiling water flushing as the blistering water hit her pale skin setting her senses afire. She lathered her hair in shampoo filling the bathroom with the smell of ripened strawberries. After washing the wondrous fruit out of her hair, she foam her hair with a soft conditioner running her hands through her black locks. She lipped the words unexpectedly, ~"I see every lesson completely. I thank God for what I got from above. I believe they can take anything from me. But they can't succeed in taking my inner peace. They can say all they wanna say about me. But I'm gonna carry on. Keep on singing my song. ~

She spread the foaming soap over her pale skin, rubbing the wondrous ocean colored liquid over her body. The water fell over her body stealing the ocean blue soap away as Meilin let the stream run a little while longer.

She turned off the water, grabbing a red towel and drying her body slowly. As she smoothed strawberry scented lotion over her body she hummed as the song played on.

~I never wanna dwell on my pain again
There's no use in reliving how I hurt back then
Remembering all of the hell I felt when I was running out of faith
Every step I vowed to take was towards a better day~

She smoothed her black suit of its wrinkles and slipped on the skirt. Placing on her red blouse, she racked through her hair letting a few little raindrops fall towards the floor. She pulled her black stockings over her luscious legs, evening them as she went on.

She stood up straight and was about to pull down her skirt, but instead hiked it up a smirk playing upon her features. She was defiantly going to be a dangerous, renegade today and no one was going to stop her.

She rubbed a little moisturizer over her face, making have a lustrous glow. (Tip: use a tinted moisturizer instead of foundation and it gives your face a natural glow. ^_^ Tip from Eva-chan: if you use liquid foundation apply moisturizer on before. It takes the fakeness our and makes it look nicer.)

~Cause I'm about to
Say goodbye to every single lie
And All the fears I've held too long inside
Every time I felt I could try
All the negativity I had inside~

She dabbed a black brush into some light pink blush and rubbed it from the tip of her lips, over her cheek just under her cheekbone. She than dipped another brush into some red eye shadow and swept it across her eye lids, and then on the V shape at the corner of her eyes. She than placed some black mascara over her eye lashes, and lastly tinted her lips with a light gloss.

"Perfect," she said to her self as she posed in front of her mirror. Meilin wasn't the type to wear makeup, but today was a different day… a new start. Sure, she was a natural beauty and drop dead gorgeous, but she wanted every man's jaw to drop and every girl to flush green with envy… yes, indeed, today was a good day.


~ For too long I've been struggling. I couldn't go on
But now I've found I'm feeling strong and moving on
I believe they can take anything from me
But they can't succeed in taking my inner peace
They can say all they wanna say about me ~

She placed her black high heels on strapping the back of them and looking one last time in the mirror as she grabbed her bag, which was full of papers and her lap top.

She held her car keys in her hand and got into her red convertible, as she turned on the radio humming to the song that played in her bedroom. After the drive towards her internship school she hurried in making sure her hips swayed, as the male's all dropped their jaws.

She wasn't sure if she was full of audacity or foolishness, but she didn't need to ponder on her answer, because her enemy came walking down the hallway as if she was God.

~ But I'm gonna carry on
I'm gonna keep on singing my song
Whoa, and every time I tried to be what they wanted from me
It never came naturally
So I ended up in misery, wasn't able to see
All the good around me
They wasted so much energy on what they thought of me
Simply just remembering to breathe~

Meilin rolled her eyes as she walked towards her, flinging her air.

"Meilin finally grew up. We should celebrate."

Meilin simply smiled, "I always wanted to say something to you, Sung Li and today is my chance. You don't bother me."

"You sure never acted like it didn't bother you."

"You want to know why you don't bother me?"

"Fine, but don't waste my time," she said looking down at her manicured nails.

"I look this good with out trying nor surgery. You on the other hand have a few bills piling up, " Meilin said throwing some bills at her as she slowly walked away.

"I'm all real!" Sung Li screamed.

"As real a plastic Barbie doll," Meilin said in a sarcastic tone smirking from ear to ear.

Revenge was sweet.

"You're the one who is fake!"

"Say what you want Sung Li because, today you don't bother me. Keep up that surgery it has done wonders to you."

Sung Li flushed and stomped away angrily.

~I'm human, I ain't able to please
Everyone at the same time, so now I find
My peace of mind living one day at a time
I'm human and I answer to one god
It comes down to one love
Until I get to heave above
I've made the decision
Never to give up
Till the I day I die no matter what ~

Meilin kept smiling the whole day, even if Sung Li's 'group' was all over her like bees to honey. She ignored the slut and whore comments… today they didn't bother her, and she knew that they might never bother her again.

They had hurt her for the last time and now she could ignore them without a problem. Her professors noticed the change in courage and praised her for answering all the questions they asked… yes, Meilin defiantly changed and she wasn't the only one to notice.

"She is such a slut," mumbled Sung Li.

Meilin smiled remembering the bills and bills that Sung Li dropped the other day… they were finally returned to their rightful owner… but, of course, not with out Meilin's mock.

~ I'm gonna carry on & keep on singing my song...
They can't take anything from me
I believe that they can do what they wanna
Say what they wanna say
They can say what they wanna
But I'm gonna keep on
Keep on I believe it
That they can take from me
But they can't take my inner peace ~

Meilin walked towards her car at the end of the day slowly, still happy about the outcome of her revenge plan. Just as she was about to get in her car…

"Hey, Meilin-chan wait up!" said a young man with dazzling, crystal blue eyes.

He caught his breath as he began, "I'm in Professor Bleacher's class with you and well, I haven't had the courage to come up to you… until now. I was wondering if you would want to eat lunch with me? I mean if you don't want to that is fine."

Meilin smiled, "I would love too."

~Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,
Say what you wanan say, but I'm gonna sing my song
Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah ~
