The Swift Life Is An Experience

I'm on this app, and you should be too.

In case you've been living under the rock known as not being a fan of one of the greatest people alive: Taylor Swift, you have missed out on A LOT.

You've missed out on amazing music, amazing videos, and an amazing person both inside and out.

And you've missed out on being a member of a really cool group of individuals coming together in our own safe haven of Swiftiedom.

In 2017, Taylor and her team launched an app known as "The Swift Life." This is a place for Swifties to meet other Swifties, make inside jokes, share stories, and hopefully interact with Taylor.

It's basically Facebook for Swifties.

I am especially thankful for it because Taylor gets way too much sh*t on regular social media sites. Who can forget the infamous meltdown over Time Magazine's 'Person of The Year' in 2017, even though Taylor had taken her sexual assaulter to court and won? What about the many articles written about Taylor's neutral political stance, but hardly any denouncing her enemy Kanye West for openly supporting the lunatic who lives in the White House? Or the people accusing her of "bullying Kim Kardashian" after Taylor spoke about the online harassment at her tour? And let's not forget the people who said she "wrote a whole album about Kanye and Kim,'' when they haven't even listened to the whole thing.

The Swift Life is supportive of several different thinkers in the Swiftie community, and many have made lifelong friends from the app. Members will create hashtags, one of my personal favorites is #dearjakegyllenhaal, and play games like, Taymoji bingo.

If you are wondering what Taymojis are, they are pretty straightforward. Each song by Taylor has a pack of specifically designed Taymojis that can correspond to the song's lyrics, video, or live performance. In addition, the app hosts fun "events' where users can collect more Taymojis. The way to collect Taymojis and packs is to like users posts, leave Taymojis on posts, and look for gifts from users.

Taylor posts on The Swift Life often, and sometimes even before she posts on Instagram. TSL users found out about Taylor's decision to reveal a fact about the reputation tour each day before the general public. Taylor also will reblog posts she likes when she gets on the app.

I have been on the app for over a month now and have a pretty decent collection of Taymojis, and have found some other people to talk to other social medias. I have made some major accomplishments in the app, mainly because I spent way too much time on it. I won't get into the details of my accomplishments because I want people to join the app to learn more. I recommend any Swiftie to join The Swift Life because I would like to meet some more of you one there. You might not meet Taylor, but I'm hoping you'll settle for me.

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.

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.
