13 Reasons Taylor Swift Is The Best

Whether you're "feeling 22" or shaking off your cares about finals, Taylor Swift has a song to describe your feelings. Any breakup you've ever been through, I bet Taylor Swift has a line in a song somewhere that will describe how you're feeling. It's kind of like she's got a little bit of everyone's personality all wrapped up in one.

1. Her awkward stage was probably just as bad as yours.

I don't know about you, but my awkward stage was terrible. Anytime I see old pictures of myself, I cringe and want to delete all traces of them. I look at other famous people and see old pictures of them and think "they're not real, they've always looked good", but leave it to Taylor to be relatable.

2. She grew up on a Christmas tree farm.

Christmas is my favorite time of the year- I start decorating in October, OK? And the fact that I have a shared love for Christmas with my favorite artist, it makes me love Christmas that much more.

3. Taylor's "squad."

If there ever was a powerhouse of friends in the entertainment world, Taylor Swift and her friends would take the cake.

4. She is poised- even when embarrassed and insulted on live television.

When Kanye West came on the stage and took the mic from her to say that the award should've gone to someone else, she kept her cool and didn't cry- like I would have.

5. Her loyalty to her best friend.

Ever since her first album, she's talked about her best friend Abigail and how they met over a shared dislike of other girls in their class that thought they were "so cool" and how'll they'll be out of there "as soon as they can".

6. She's never too old to twirl in a dress.

If you've ever seen Taylor in a concert, or watched any of her music videos, you can see that if she's wearing a dress she's probably twirling in it.

7. Her love for theatrical performances.

Every tour that Taylor has done, she has made it so much more than just a concert. She really turns it into a show every night. Whether she's singing in the pouring rain on a stage- or has a giant castle set up on the stage- it's always entertaining.

8. Being able to laugh at herself

Taylor knows that she is an awkward person and she completely embraces it. Whether it's dancing to music when no one else it- or running a commercial of herself falling on the treadmill, you know Taylor isn't too worried about people thinking she's weird.

9. Her relationship with her mom.

Taylor always talks about her mom as if she's her best friend. Listening to "The Best Day" is sure to make you tear up if you're missing your mom.

10. Her amazing dance moves.

You can watch her music videos, watch her at award shows, or her performances, and you'll see her super awkward dance moves. The best part is she completely embraces it.

11. Meredith Grey Swift.

Taylor brought Meredith home on Halloween in 2011. Meredith was the first of the two cats that have the spotlight in Taylor's life- and this cat looks exactly how I imagine a cat that Taylor would own. Taylor and her brother even set her up a twitter account, @meredithkitty

12. Olivia Benson Swift.

Taylor adopted Olivia in June of 2014. Olivia's first TV debut was with Taylor in the diet coke commercial, and she killed it.

13. Her obsession with the number "13."

Ever since Taylor first got popular, she has said her lucky number was 13. Since then, she still sports the number and uses it for good luck.

College is a crazy, beautiful, amazing whirlwind. It is highly popularized in television and movies, but not necessarily in the most accurate way. Yes, there's frats, dingy dorms, raging house parties—but there's also a lot that people fail to mention.

1. If you thought that you knew how to study, you're wrong.

All of your classes aren't taught every day, so professors aren't on your case constantly about reading and memorizing material. Once you get back that "questionable" first exam grade, you'll kick it into high gear and figure out what works for you

I've been a bleach blonde for over a year now, and let me tell you, it is a lifestyle. More hair appointments, longer showers, and special shampoo. But it is totally worth it!

1. Mentally preparing yourself to convince your hair dresser that white is the way to go.

2. Or the anxiety of what could go wrong by bleaching your hair at home.

3. You could either become a ginger

4. Or a pixie

5. The face you make in the mirror when you take off your towel to unveil the perfect white strands.

6. Taking a million selfies the day you bleached it, because you know your roots will be back in literally 2 days.

7. Having to get bangs or a big chop because your hair is so damaged.

8. Having orange highlights in between touch-ups.

9. Going out for a drink afterwards to debut your updated look.

Despite the struggles, you love your platinum blonde hair! You make sure Instagram knows it, too. You don't need a filter, because the color is flawless by itself!

Finals: just thinking about them gives you anxiety. Only two weeks separate you from summer, but they're the longest of the semester. There's a familiarity to this season, now that you have had so many testing cycles under your belt. But that doesn't quell the ever present stress to pass your finals and your classes. Even better, as a package deal during these wonderful weeks, you get to wake up early to study and you get to take exams that can begin anytime from 7 A.M. to 7 P.M. Now that we have established that this week is not fun, here are some super relatable moments that punctuate finals week.

I've been at this college thing for almost three and a half years, and while I thought that high school was truly the lowest point of my existence, I'm beginning to realize that it was a walk in the park. Like, I miss the days when the biggest white lie I told my parents was my made up excuse about being late for fourth period. These days, the white lies are a tad more complex, and as ashamed as I am to admit it, I've definitely told a few of these.
