Approximately 10 seconds after meeting me anyone would be able to recognize that I am the type of girl who really enjoys listening to Taylor Swift. Like, all of the time. Like, since forcing my best friends to drive me to Target the Monday “1989” was released so I could have the three exclusive tracks. I have since, collectively, listened to all 16 songs 218 times. And that was only two weeks ago. Shout out to iTunes for so diligently keeping track of my obsessive nature when it comes to my music listening habits. But it’s okay, because the only person who might be more repetitive than me is Taylor Swift herself.

The funniest thing about all these repetitions is that, although there are continuous references throughout 1989 about a certain curly-haired boy-band member who shall remain anonymous, the year Miss Swift was born is not mentioned once. Nonetheless, I feel like this only confirms that Taylor and I could be repetitive besties.

You should go buy the album, too, so we can all listen to it on repeat together.
