Throwing pebbles at windows, dancing in the rain in her best dress, it's 2 am, his beautiful eyes, a prince and a princess, etc..

This is a Taylor Swift post. To start, I'd like to state that I have Taylor Swift on my ipod. In fact, I'm pretty sure one of her songs is on my Top 25 Most Played. No, I do not dislike her. But I do have strong opinions on her music and how it is all the-freaking-same. It is all about boys, high school crushes, Romeo, her multiple boyfriends, etc.. Taylor Swift is a role-model to girls aged 10-16 approximately. And she is telling these girls that her whole teenage years revolved around boys and how to get them and stalking them and avenging them. It's ridiculous how the only thoughts she had during her teenage years (Taylor Swift is now twenty years old) weren't otherwise occupied by things other than boys she could've written songs about. How about her dreams of becoming a country-star? Or what inspired her to follow this dream? Or how one day she wanted to find the cure to cancer? But, no. Taylor Swift is tossing rocks at Stephen's door and waiting out there in the cold until he comes outside, kisses her senseless, realizes she is the girl of his dreams and *insert random chick-flick moment*. Not that it isn't awesome or normal to have crushes. It would be abnormal not to. It's ok when it's 1, 2, maybe 3 songs about the same thing, with the same lyrics, and the same sound. What's not cool, is a whole album that is the same. But, still, you can't not love Taylor Swift's cheesy and predictable songs, they are what made her Taylor Swift in her teens. But Taylor Swift is twenty.
