The old Taylor is dead.

“The drought was the very worst.”

In normal Taylor Swift fashion, fans would get a bigger and better album every other year in the fall since 2006. But 2016 came and went and there was no sign of Taylor (since 2014’s 1989.) Although she definitely deserved a break after ten long years, Swifties had a Blank Space in their lives for a while now.

Swifties have been waiting that long to hear something new from Taylor. Sure, we had “I Don’t Wanna Live Forever” from Fifty Shades Darker which featured Zayn, and she wrote Little Big Town’s song, “Better Man,” and wrote the lyrics for Calvin Harris and Rihanna’s “This Is What You Came For,” but Swifties were still waiting for the TS6 era.

There had been much speculation online over the past weeks, and Swifties are always sleuthing. If you searched the hashtag #TS6 on Twitter, you could read all of the fans’ theories, predictions, reactions, and eagerness.

Taylor had taken some time off since the 1989 World Tour ended to take care of her mom, Andrea (A.K.A Momma Swift), and to just give herself a break from everything. She was out of the news and spotlight for a long time and was focusing on herself and a new era.

The most we had heard from her was during her trial with the radio DJ who had groped her, which she won with pride and was awarded her symbolic $1.

Then the weekend of August 19th, Taylor wiped all of her social media. She stopped following everyone, took down her profile pictures and cover photo, erased all of her photos, and deleted her bio. Some thought she was hacked, but Swifties knew a new era was rising. Long Live the 1989 Era! You will never be forgotten.

Finally, on Monday August 21st, a video was posted. It was a 10 second clip of what looked like a snake’s tail, a dragon’s tail, no one really knew. Some people thought that Taylor was going to be on Game of Thrones, other thought maybe she was the true heir to Slytherin.

In recent months, Taylor had been called a snake by many in show business and haters on the internet. As Taylor does, she just Shakes It Off, and writes hit songs about it. So the snake tail was thought to be a symbol for a new song. The tail had a 25 in it. The next day the middle of the creature was posted and it looked to have an 8 on it. So many fans thought 8/25 was the release date for a new single.

Finally, on Wednesday, August 23rd, the snakehead was posted and the countdown was on.

So “take a deep breath in the mirror” because only a few hours later, her social media blew up again when the album cover art, title and release date were posted.

Reputation, out November 10th, will be the name of Taylor’s 6th studio album. Her full face is finally back on the cover! It looks like we may be getting a more edgier Taylor this time around, like she is coming back full force and doesn’t give a hoot what others think. I guess you could say Everything Has Changed.

Wipe the Teardrops on your Guitar off because the queen of mega diss tracks is back!

Her new single, “Look What You Made Me Do,” dropped Thursday and it was a truly different sound from Taylor.

It was more of an edgy, punky, song, and many people compared it to the beat of Right Said Fred’s track “I’m too Sexy.”

This new dark era is here to slay our lives and give us songs to scream out loud at parties!

I am so excited for what this new era and album is going to bring! I have a feeling we will be getting A LOT more instagram captions out of this album!

Make sure you buy reputation on November 10th.

She is back and “I think I am finally Clean!”

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

Power of Love Letters

I don't think I say it enough...

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
