Taylor Swift OMZ!

If you knew my age, you'd tell me I am young.
Thanks. I know.
However, I turn a new age in a couple of months, and you'd probably still say I'm young.
And if I told you I've already found what I'm passionate about, you'd say it was impossible.

Let me promise you.
It isn't.

I think it's important for everyone to find something they are passionate about, because I know how it feels to have something I know I will never stop doing. and, in case you were wondering, that thing is music.

Let me tell you why I'm up at 12:22 in the morning.

Today, I went to a Taylor Swift concert. And this expirience is something I want to share with you.

A lot of people hate celebrities, claiming that they're fakes or that they don't actually care about the fans or the music or whatever. But if they're thinking this about Taylor Swift, they're wrong. Because, when you see her live in concert, you notice a lot. For example, whenever the crowd cheered for her, her eyes lit up; nothing could keep her from smiling. The only exception to that statement, is that if you yelled in the middle of a song, she would barely notice. This being because she gets so lost in the songs, so into them, that we seem like her closest friends to whom she's telling a personal story. As an audience member, I could see her relive every moment the lyrics were about, and that's a hard thing to watch.
But it's harder to do.
And still, I left that stadium wishing that I could be the one on tour, singing my heart out to 13,000 people at a time, making memories and sharing them.
I close my eyes now, and see her smile and then the crowd that put it there. I see her red dress as she sings "Haunted" and I see the bell that then concealed her. I see the purple dress she wore for "Speak Now", "Fearless", and so many others.

I'm so happy I saw her tonight, because she changed my perspective.

I could see, when she sang "Our Song" in that white dress (barefoot, no less), that she was comfortable where she was, that it was her home. And there's something to be said for that.

The dress she wore for "Enchanted" was beautiful, beige with silver sparkly designs, and it flowed to the ground. The last dress she wore for both "Fifteen" and "Love Story" was absolutely gorgeous, and the beige sparkly number at the beginning wasn't so bad either.

And, guess what? Her "roadies" carry around guitar picks with her face on them (in case she or another person needs one), and he gave us each one! AHHHHHH! (<---girly scream)


More later ;)

Love you!
