so, dim that spotlight.
Hi, I'm Alexa and I love Taylor Swift, a lot.
"I want to start by letting you know this, because of you, my life has a purpose. You helped me be who I am today, I see myself in every word you say. Sometimes it feels like nobody gets me, trapped in a world where everyone hates me. There's so much that I'm going through and I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for you."

Meeting Taylor | About Me | Why I love Taylor

My Taylor show, August 6th, 2011.  

Let me start off, I literally thought I would NEVER EVER meet her, ever. Since 2006, Taylor has been my hero, and I can’t thank her enough for how much she’s impacted my life, and I never thought I’d be able to tell her that either. But, yesterday, that finally happened for me, and it’s still surreal to think about. 

My parents didn’t think we had M&G because it was too hard to snag passes, and being promised since the beginning of the Summer that I’d meet her, and the day before the show having that called off left me in tears because it was another failed attempt at meeting my biggest inspiration. So, me and my friend spent over $150 on glow sticks, and another 100 or so on more decorations to cover our bodies with to try to get into the Tparty, but I figured we wouldn’t, knowing ahead of time that the venue held 51,000 people. I was blow drying my hair before we left, and my friend came up to me and said “Guess what, WE HAVE MEET AND GREET!” My hands started shaking and literally couldn’t believe what I just heard, in a few hours, I’d finally meet Taylor Swift. 

Once we got to the venue I was sick to my stomach, and as we were waiting in line after we were guided to the area where M&G groups were waiting, I saw that we were going to go into the tparty room to take pictures and that’s when the waterworks came, I was going to meet her in less than 20 minutes. We took pictures in the tparty room, and then I realized we were up next to meet Taylor and I basically started hyperventilating and shaking like no other, it was horrible. But, then, there she was right in front of me. She hugged my friend then came over and hugged me and I managed to tell her that she was my hero and then I broke down in tears again. She said thank you so much, and then complimented our shirts and how she loved how sparkly they were. After we took the picture (that was sort of ruined due to the fact that my eyes are beat red), she gave me another hug and then told me “By the way, your eyes are gorgeous!” And then I choked out a thank you, grabbed the autograph, and left when I broke down in tears again. Finally, since 2006, five years of trying, I met Taylor Alison Swift. 

The show was great, and she sounded flawless. I cried during the entire show. The fireworks during Dear John were beautiful, and overall the scenery and just the show itself was perfect. Amos waved at me a few times too, hehe. So, overall, though I would’ve wanted more time to thank Taylor, I really can’t complain. I’ve been waiting for this day so many years and it FINALLY happened, and I can’t stress how grateful I am. I’m the one that looks gross along with the fact that I look like I’m missing an upper lip on the right, black & white does wonders as well, considering that the colored version is pretty embarrassing due to my endless tears:
