Taylor Swift's 22 Is Way Too Relatable.

I don't know about you, but I don't feel 22.

Taylor Swift's 22 Is Way Too Relatable.
Odyssey

I’m a fan of Taylor Swift, and I have to admit that when her hit single “22” came out with a bang- I couldn’t wait to blast that anthem as many times as possible on my birthday. The day has finally arrived, and I have to admit that for the first time in my life, Taylor Swift’s lyrics are way too relatable to me. While so much of her music is full of smashing hits, her songs about breakups, makeups and heartbreaks never really hit home with me- but this song does. Here are some of Taylor’s most relateable lyrics from “22” that hit way too close to home. You rock Taylor, stay real.

"It feels like the perfect night, to dress up like hipsters."

You're Taylor. I've tried and tried to perfect this whole 'hipster" look for the last couple of years. I own a pair of large rim glasses, LOTS of flannels and I even have a tattoo. However, I have never been able to succumb to this so called Hipster culture, but every now and then I like to pretend that I can fit into this so called "hipster culture" that is going to soon take over the world (HA).

"It feels like the perfect night, for breakfast at midnight."

Taylor you are speaking my language. Pancakes are my favorite thing in the entire world,I'm sure breakfast at midnight is incredible no matter what age you are, but there is no doubt that I will absolutley being having breakfast at midnight when I'm 22- because why not?

"We're happy, free, confused, and lonely at the same time. It's miserable and magical."

TAYLOR SLAYS AGAIN. There's never been a year more happy yet confusing than turning 22. I mean, what happens after graduation? How am I ever going to be able to afford a car and a pair of lululemon yoga pants (#firstworldproblems). Why do I sometimes get so lonley, even though I have the greatest friends on the planet? The struggle is real.

"Tonight's the night when we forget about the deadlines."

Right again. If you are/or approaching 22 than that means homework is ALMOST over, praise the Lord. What a great reminder that sometimes we have to be sponateous in order to enjoy life to the fullest. Besides, homework is SO last year.

"It seems like one of those nights, his place is too crowded. Too many cool kids. Uh-huh."

The older I get, the less time I want to spend in a humongous crowd of people and the more time I would rather spend with my close besties around a campfire, watching a movie or cooking a meal. Thanks Taylor, for a sweet reminder that less is sometimes a lot better.

"Everything will be alrightIf we just keep dancing like we're 22."

Well Taylor, I hope your advice is right, because I really like to dance. Here's to all the 22 year olds out there who never like to dance...you better start because T-swift is always right (wink wink).

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.
