OK, YA'LL, RAISE YOUR HAND IF YOU'RE A SWIFTIE!




Hi, if you're reading this you've reached REDsparks89's page, but that's kind of a mouthful, so just call me Reagan.


I'm thirteen but I've been told by people I'm decently mature for my age. I am currently holding on to every last minute in middle school. I absolutely love my school in secret. I've known all my classmates since pre-school and they're my family! I probably annoy my friends to death but they're just too nice to say anything. (Some of my friends from school are on TC, they're LoveIsTreacherous22, StayStayStayx22, swiftie4life22, and Jillian22Starlight) (swiftie4life22 is LoveIsTreacherous22's little sister.) Oh, and by the way, I LOVE FRAPPES OF ALL FLAVORS! I am not a frappe prejudice.

*************************************************************************************



One of my favorite things about Taylor is how much she adores her band. Every time I see a video or picture of her and her band or Abigail I get so happy, I don't know why. My favorite members are Caitlin, Amos, and Liz. I absolutely LOVE Eunice (Caitlin's alter ego) and I really want a gif of her for my page! I've searched all over Swiftieland and I cannot find one! If anyone has one, it would be much appreciated if you could give me the code for it. :) I dream of having a cat like Meredith someday. I think she's the most amazing little creature in the universe!



This is the tragic story of a real-life case of YOU-BELONG-WITH-ME-fever. (AKA friend-zoned) There's this girl in our class at school who is DESPERATELY in love with this boy in my class. (But rumor has it that he likes someone else.) She told me that everytime he's around her that YOU BELONG WITH ME plays through her mind. Cutest thing every, right? I know!! :)

I really love hearing people's "Enchanted" stories of how us Swifties got "acquainted" with Taylor. I guess mine starts in 2006 when I saw a Radio Disney tv ad for TEARDROPS ON MY GUITAR. The first thought in my 6 year-old mind was, "She reminds my of a fox!" Yes, yes, I compared my idol to a fox at one point. And no, I didn't become a Swiftie at 6 because, well, I was 6! Plus, I was living in the age of Jonas Brothers and Jesse McCartney. (Remember him?!) Unlike other people who automatically fell in love with Taylor; I didn't. It all REALLY started for me when I got a Nook Tablet for Christmas last year. I didn't know how to import song files from my computer yet, so I listened to the Pandora app ALL THE TIME. Like, not even kidding, all the time! But anyway, I was introduced a bit more personally to MANY other artists that way, including Ms. Swift. (In case you don't know how Pandora works, basically, it makes a playlist based on what kind of music it thinks you might like, then plays it. Many different artists and songs are played so you can either 'like' or 'dislike' them.) I don't know how, nor do I remember why, but I started to get REALLY excited whenever one of her songs played, like, freak-attack excited. Things took a big dive for me when I started to memorize these songs. They really took over my brain. (Taylor has that affect on most people I know) One amazingly magical day, I started singing SPEAK NOW really quietly in lunch and one of my friends sort of heard me.
"What song is that?" She asked.
"Oh, you probably wouldn't know it." I said, trying to get back to the song.
"But, maybe I will." She replied. No getting out of it now.
"Its Speak Now. Ya know, by Taylor Swift?" I answered. I was almost embarassed for some reason.
Her eyes widened and suddenly her smile brightened a few tones. "Repeat that, please?"
"I said, "Speak Now by Taylor Swift"." I repeated.
*Gasps* "Don't say yes, run away now.." She began to sing.
"I'll meet you when you're out of the church at the back door.." I sang back, barely containing my excitement.
We laughed together and high-fived after finishing the whole song. That day was the beginning of something magical that would soon consume the rest of my life in one enormous gulp: Swifties for Life.
That girl was one of my best friends and CERTAINLY my BTSFFE, LoveIsTreacherous22.
At first I was afraid to show people that I liked something that was, ya know, different. Its hard to be a Swiftie in this age of Nicki Minaj and Drake. But eventually, I opened my eyes and saw something that enchanted my life forever; Taylor Swift.
Don't be afraid to speak out for something that not everybody believes in. Taylor taught me that. You might even find people along the way in the same situation as you. And on that note, I don't think you should wait, I think you should SPEAK NOW..

My ultimate goal in life is when I'm at the RED concert to get into the T-Party. (I GOT TICKETS!!!! YES!!) Even just getting a glimpse of her that isn't through my iPod screen will be amazing. That's all I want. Ever. I am UNBELIEVABLY EXCITED for the concert!!! I CANNOT WAIT AT ALL!! I still cant believe we managed to get tickets! Wow! :) :) :)

Love this one! :)


I think it's such a wonderful thing that Taylor could be doing absolutely anything else but she chooses to make our lives better by singing. Sometimes I feel like she writes songs for me about my life, but every Swiftie has that feeling, thats what makes Taylor sooo amazing. I love that beautiful songs like NEVER GROW UP and RONAN can make me cry. Is that odd? I don't think it is.

Don't want to brag, but I started and finished the Harry Potter series from ages seven to eight. Best years of my life. I remember having Harry Potter movie marathons on Saturdays bright and early. I remember begging my mom for five more minutes past bedtime to finish a chapter. And most importantly, I remember watching the seventh Harry Potter movie part two and crying at the end. My childhood was over just like that, and I cant even begin to tell you how magical my childhood was.


PS For all those in my school who believe Taylor Swift sounds like a quote-un-quote "beached whale trapped in a washing machine" THIS is what you are:


One of her songs that really speaks to me is LONG LIVE. I know everybody here would agree with me that it's a very meaningful song. I've been trying to get my class to sing that song for middle school graduation next year. Unfortunately, there are some people in my school that don't appreciate Taylor's phenomenal abilities.. (Check the graphic above to see why)

I am an odd person who loves to randomly shout "AUSTRALIA!!!" at very inappropriote times (such as during study hall) and screws up often. I'm not perfect and neither is anybody else so don't call me on it! Sometimes I don't always Speak Now at the perfect time, and sometimes I forget to be Fearless, but I'll never forget to stay strong in Taylor.
Every single one of you is beautiful inside and out and I hope you stay that way.

Thank you sooo much, (and Stay Beautiful), REDdparks89.

But first, some loverly Tumblr gifs!

    You read Harry Potter when you were 7-8, too! I've always been a advanced reader (exempt in Kindergarten. I hated reading in Kindergarten.) Love, love, love that GIF. :)

    Yeah, GIMP is pretty great, plus it's free! The problem is that sometimes when I resize stuff I lose the image quality but I think it might be because I don't have the latest edition. If you don't want to download anything you could try Plixr.
    And btw, I have a new blog up if you want to read it!

    Hey there Swiftie! So as you may have seen on the forums or in my blogs, I'm writing to you today to personally invite you to join me in a fun little project that is already well under way.?
    To make a long story short (and if you want the long, detailed version you can check out the official project page in my blogs): We, meaning myself and hundreds of Swifties from Taylor Connect are currently in the process of making Official Unofficial Lyric Video for the song "Red". Why, you might ask? To both celebrate the dawn of the Red era and to show the one and only Taylor Swift just what all of this means to us, the fans of course!! After everything she does for us, this will be our way of doing something back for her.?
    Interested? Excited? Confused? Tired? Fighting an uncontrollable urge to scream out loud that you are, in fact, a little teapot (handle, spout and all!)? Well, first things first, the best way to understand what we're doing is to see the original inspiration for this project, courtesy of the folks behind the Broadway Musical "Title of Show"?

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JtdgvmYUuuA ??

    Now, take that idea and apply it to Red!! So far, the creativity people have been bringing to the table has been beyond incredible and now I would like to offer you your own chance to get in on the action. Just respond to this message expressing your interest, and you can be a part of this amazing opportunity to unite with your fellow Swifties as, with one voice, we celebrate the dawn of the Red era!! Let's give this album and the beautiful artist behind it the welcome they deserve! You might want to hurry though: there are officially less than 50 words left to give out and they are going FAST! So send me a message and join up!

    I love Harry Potter so much! :) They are my favorite book series, ever. I remember crying while reading the last one, it was my favorite. I notice you like Long Live too, it's one of my favorites from Speak Now. It reminds me of so many things- Harry Potter for one, all my friends, and being a part of Taylor Nation and being at a concert. It's such a magical song :) BTW, I liked reading the story of how you became a Swiftie! Teardrops on My Guitar was my first Taylor song too, AND I'd heard it on Radio Disney! Shocking how we're so similar, right?
