You saw me start to believe for the first time

Hey. I just realised my last blog post was completely stupid. I was kind of tired when I was writing it, and it came out completely different than I planned. So, ignore it, don't read it, I'll write a better one later on. I won't delete it, but please ignore it.
Okay, so as I apparently am unable to write properly, I'll stick with music. It's easier, and I'm tired now too, so I suppose writing about something proper wouldn't be a good idea. So, I thought that I could gather my favourite parts of Taylor Swift songs, and maybe add a comment too...
So here we go. I'll go with the song order on the albums, so first album's first song first (that's a whole lot of first used in one sentence), second song next and so on.

You said the way my blue eyes shined put those Georgia stars to shame that night, I said: "That's a lie."

That's just something. Like how often, if someone compliments you, you just say something like: "Oh whatever." or "Oh well I don't know." Actually, if someone says something nice they really mean it, you don't that often go saying nice things to people randomly. So for once, why not say: "Thank you."

The only thing that keeps me wishing on a wishing star.

Just imagine the feeling when you really, really care about someone and they don't feel the same way about you. Besides, the video is beautiful. She looks really hurt in the beginning.

Teardrops On My Guitar


I don't know what I want, so don't ask me 'cause I'm still trying to figure it out. Even though I'm not the only one who feels the way I do.

I thought I could pick up another line from this song for a change. All these songs about growing up just describe me so well, that they are important to me. The first line is exactly me, and the second just helps me realise that I'm not the only one lost here.

A Place In This World


I tried to take the road less traveled by but nothing seems to work the first few times.

Who wouldn't want to go their own way? I mean, I want to find my own way in this world, despite a little help is sometimes needed. Nothing seems to work for the first time when you try it, but being persistent enough you'll find the way. It might be a detour, or a shortcut, but you get further anyway.

The Outside


Seems the only one who doesn't see your beauty is the face in the mirror looking back at you.

Genius. I mean, you hear it everywhere, that you're good just the way you are. But somehow you actually start believing it once you listen to this.

Tied Together With A Smile


Don't you know you're really gonna be someone, ask anyone.

It helps you to believe in yourself. Really.

Stay Beautiful


I'm only me when I'm with you.

Exactly.

I'm Only Me When I'm With You


Well that's the first album. I'm going to stop now, as I suppose you got bored already. So I won't waste your time any more. Later!

But as usual, the heading (going with the theme):

Mine (thought it was needless to mention the artist)

People are people and sometimes we change our minds

So, getting to the proper posting now. This is why I started this blog in the first place... I'm writing about people today, certain kind of people. I don't know really how to call them, but I guess you'll figure it out.
Okay, so I really have to say that I hate people, who hate things just because they're popular. All like these "I don't want to see Twilight-movies because they're such mass teen stuff" or that "I hate all Disney stars because they're too... Disney". It really annoys me that people judge things without really getting to know them.
I have to admit, that I'm not a fan of mass teen things, either. But I've seen the Twilight movies and I'm not going to say I don't like them because they're teen stuff. I understand if you really don't like them, but opinions based on nothing... I just can't stand it.
And then there are these "I hate Justin Bieber he sounds like a girl" kind of people, and Facebook's full of groups such as "95 % of teens would freak out if Justin Bieber was about to jump off a bridge, like if you belong to the 5 % who'd eat popcorn, and shout 'Jump! Jump'". Like, okay, you don't like Justin Bieber, but is it really your problem if you think he sounds like a girl? I think he has a few nice songs, and I won't say I hate JB just because half of the world says Justin Bieber sucks.
And as opposed to that, there's people who just like something because everyone else does. I can't really think of an example right now, but well let's say that most of the world is going crazy about Lady Gaga's clothes. I think they're way too weird and you can't be exactly normal to wear something like that. And I'm not going to say they're lovely because they're fashionable. Who cares?

Nowadays people care way too much about what others think. I'm not one of those coolest girls in school, in fact, there isn't really one in our school. We have a great class, pretty much everyone's friends with each other even we're really different people. But no-one judges others, and I think that's great. I don't care about make up or don't really bother using too much time in the morning getting ready, and no-one looks at me like they'd be better people than I am. I wear my glasses, as I get a terrible head ache if I don't and I can't wear contacts, and no-one calls me lame. I do well in school and don't really care about partying and getting wasted, and no-one calls me nerdy. I suppose I'm quite lucky, but still... If you're not afraid to be who you are, people will respect you. If you show you're ashamed of yourself, you show others that it's okay to tell you you're not goo enough. That's just my opinion.

Speaking of which... I also get annoyed of these people, who take your opinions too personally. I mean, I might say I would never want to work as one of those people who call others trying to sell whatever magazines or so, but it doesn't mean someone else couldn't do it. That's like the only thing I never want to do, but it doesn't mean I'd hate all the people who do it. If someone wants to do that, go ahead, but don't come to me saying: "Oh, but if you can't get a job anywhere else, blaah, blaah, blaah." I. don't. care. It's not my problem, I don't have a job at all, and I'd rather be jobless than work as one of them.
I face similar incidents every day. I have strong opinions about many things, and it won't be easy to turn my head. But isn't it just good to have things to discuss about, life would be quite boring if we all agreed on everything.

And as I've done quite a bit of writing already, I guess I could still bring up one subject: hypocrisy. God I hate it more than anything. I have this one friend, as she's like the most hypocrite person in the whole world. At least it feels like it. She moved to the other side of the country last year, because she wanted to go this special school. And as you can guess, with a few teenagers living next door each other there's pretty much partying going on there. And I've been with her in a few, more or less, parties, anyhow people drinking. And she always says that it's okay if someone doesn't want to drink, no-one has to if they don't want to. Like me. But you can see from the way she acts that she loathes those people and their behaviour. Might sound like a pathetic example, but when a person builds up from hundreds of such things, it really gets to you.

But I'm getting tired now, so maybe I'll continue some other time.

Taylor Swift - Breathe

Who I am

Okay, now that I've given a little introduction about me through music, I maybe could tell something about myself. There's quite a lot more than you get from the lyrics.
I'll make a little list about who I am.
  • slightly perfectionist (as much as I'd like to deny it, I have to admit that sometimes the little perfectionist inside me takes over)
  • ambitious (connected with perfectionism, unfortunately)
  • have strong opinions about, pretty much, everything (usually I'm not too serious, though, no matter how serious I sound!)
  • I get annoyed (pretty) easily (no matter what the subject is, I have an opinion and there's something that bugs me. This will be an endless list, so I won't bother writing it here. You'll find out, sooner or later.)
  • just a girl (I just had to put it here - after all I'm just me, hoping that there's people who'll understand me)
And please, don't get last one wrong, I'm not one of those girls who are bullied or anything, nor am I one of the invisible people. I do have friends and everything, my life isn't miserable, but I just feel like I need some place to shout out what I have in my mind. I'm not really one of those people who tell everything to their friends - I rather keep my things to myself. But these, as they're no exactly secrets, I'd like to share with more people that just my friends. But lets see how this will get going.

And just to let you know, I will be using lyrics as my post titles, and I will always tell the song they're from at the end of the post. Now,
Nick Jonas & The Administration - Who I Am

Inside my head there's a radio station

So, I will start my blogging with a little musical introduction. Here are some lyrics that have inspired me, or that mean something to me. Anyhow, don't take it too literally...
I have absolutely no idea if anyone can bother reading the whole list, but take a look at few at least, they'll hopefully give you some kind of a clue about who I am.

I'm gonna break your little heart, watch you take the fall, laughing all the way to the hospital, 'cause there's nothing surgery can do when I break your little heart in two.
It might sound slightly radical, but there's something in it.

There's a story at the bottom of this bottle and I'm the pen.
I have absolutely no idea why this somehow clicks.

I just want you to know that I've been fighting to let you go, some days I make it through and then there's nights that never end...
Makes you think...

Can we pretend that airplanes in the night sky are like shooting stars? I could really use a wish right now...
Yes, I know it's a big hit now, but the line... It has a lot of meaning, doesn't it?

It's my life, it's now or never, I ain't gonna live forever, I just want to live while I'm alive.
Exactly.

I'm not a girl, not yet a woman. All I need is time, a moment that is mine, while I'm in between.
Yes, quite a cliché, but it really does help sometimes.

Near, far, wherever you are, I believe that the heart does go on.
Another cliché, but can you say something against?

When I saw you I knew you were the one, I want to orbit you like you're the sun. -- I'm like a puzzle with a missing piece, I got a car but didn't get the keys...
Gotta love the song!

Well, I never saw it coming, and I should've started running a long, long time ago.
Yet another line that I can't really explain.

Send it on, on and on, just one hand can heal another. Be a part, reach your heart, just one spark starts a fire.
Say whatever you wanna say, hate the singers or whatever, but the song is nice and the lyrics are meaningful.

Stay here tonight, 'cause when you're around me everything's right...
Once again, it just somehow clicks.

So walk a little slower and open up your eyes, sometimes its so hard to see the good things pass you by. There may never be a sign, no flashing neon light, telling you to make your move or when the time is right.
Again, you may say whatever you want, but this song was really important once.

You're beautiful, you're beautiful, you're beautiful, it's true.
Once you think about this in the morning when you're having a bad hair day...

Worlds are spinning round, there's no time for slowing down, so won't you take a breath, just take a breath.
Don't judge the artist, please.

If time was still, the sun would never ever find us, we could light up the sky tonight. -- We're chasing stars to lose our shadow, Peter Pan and Wendy turned out fine, so won't you fly with me...
Same as before. I just love this song.

You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet, wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it, you know you can if you get the chance.
In your face as the door keeps slamming, now you're feeling more and more frustrated, and you're getting all kind of impatient waiting...
We live and we learn to take one step at a time, there's no need to rush, it's like learning to fly, or falling in love...
Once again, a song about growing up. Wonder why they are so important?

I'll spread my wings and I'll learn how to fly, I'll do what it takes till I touch the sky.
Make a wish, take a chance, make a change, and break away.
Out of the darkness and into the sun, but I won't forget all the ones that I love.
I'll take a risk, take a chance, make a change, and break away.
Speaking of which...

Highway to the danger zone, ride into the danger zone.
The song's amazing, and there's just - once again - something about it.

You sit there in your heartache, waiting on some beautiful boy to save you from your old ways...
Awesome song. Also, I just have to put it here, though the lyrics have no meaning for me:
The Killers - Mr. Brightside: Awesome song. Perfect when you're feeling a little down. It does cheer you up, try.

When my time comes forget the wrong that I've done, help me leave behind some reasons to be missed. Don't resent me and when you're feeling empty keep me in your memory, leave out all the rest...
Love the song, and beautiful lyrics, too.

I want someone to love me for who I am. I want someone to need me, is that so bad? I want someone to love me for who I am.
Beautiful song, and love the lyrics and the video.

I'd like to make myself believe that planet Earth turns slowly. It's hard to say that I'd rather stay awake when I'm asleep, 'cause everything is never as it seems...
Again, I love the song. I have to say, I was really annoyed when it became such a big hit...

Oh, think twice, 'cause it's another day for you and me in paradise.
Beautiful song, and it has a message. It makes you think, that no matter how crap life may seem, there's always people who'd be more than eager to switch places.

A thousand miles seems pretty far, but they've got planes and trains and cars, I'd walk to you if I had no other way.
What can I say?

I'm going down, I'll be coming back fighting, I may be scared and a little bit frightened, but I'll be back, I'll be coming back to life.
That's the way.

But hold your breath because tonight will be the night that I will fall for you, over again, don't make me change my mind, or I won't live to see another day, I swear it's true, because a girl like you is impossible to find.
Beautiful.

People are all the same and we only get judged by what we do, personality reflects name, and if I'm ugly then so are you.
Once again, this used to be really important.

I'm just a girl trying to find a place in this world.
This is, as you maybe noticed, or not, on the description of my blog at the top of this page. Taylor Swift and her music are really important to me, and I could put a line here from pretty much all of her songs. But I guess this one's enough, for now.

Here's a song for the one who stole my heart and ran so far that cupid couldn't catch her.
There you go.

And the heading:
