The Taylor Swift Speak Now World Tour

Hey everyone!


I should've posted this on the 28th, but it kinda slipped my mind.... anyway, I wanted to let you know that I went to Taylor's concert in SLC, UT on the 28th! Funny thing is, my mom was able to buy the tickets on the day OF the concert, which meant that we only had a side view, and couldn't see things very well (we were also very high up). But, hey, at least I was there, right??


Music is a HUGE part of my life. I can connect with it in so many different ways, especially in emotions. I was crying during the first couple of songs, just because I was soooo happy to be there. And then, of course, I sang "Enchanted" with a longing passion and cried during the bridge. Surprise, surprise, I knew every single word to every single song she sang, except for the covers. Even the encore song, which was "Ours", among with a few others from her Fearless album. That was an amazing night. Here's what I posted on Facebook when I got home:
"Just came home from the TAYLOR SWIFT SPEAK NOW WORLD TOUR!!!!!! It was Enchanting, Sparks flew (very literally), we shared our new Story of Us, we went Back to December, gained a memory that left us Haunted (in a good way), learned of Last Kisses, read Dear Johns, decided that it's better to be nice than Mean, and chose to Speak Now. Long Live this wonderful memory, I know that I had the time of my life tonight, and I'm so very glad to call it Mine."


What to know what it was like? Check out YouTube and search, "Taylor Swift SLC". I may post videos on my channel (I'm EnchantedForever14), so if you want to check that out as well, you're more than welcome to.

Happy Birthday, My Love

Well, today's the day! Here's my goal; I'VE REACHED IT!!! Really, though, there was no doubt that I wouldn't - it was just a matter of timing....
In case you didn't guess, today is his birthday. He is exactly 82 days older than me. I lost sleep last night because I wanted to write a note on my phone saying, "Exactly 14 years ago, Arien (using his real name) was born. Happy birthday, my love," at 4:04 AM - I woke up at 3:51 and couldn't go back to sleep until about 4:35 or even later...
So, today, for his birthday, I sent him an ecard. Just one of those fun things that you can find on 123Greetings.com. It wasn't a big deal, but I thought he might like it. Then I wished him another happy birthday at 11:02 AM and talked with him continuously for exactly 2 hours and 28 minutes (we beat the record, if you didn't notice!!!)
He said a lot of things that made me happy, we laughed a lot, and just had a great time. Now, if only I could see him again....
BTW, I should mention that I asked him whether or not he would go to stake dances now (in our religion, we're divided up into wards, stakes, regions, etc.) that he was 14, and he said probably not, since he doesn't really know anybody very well (the girls, that is) in his stake! He also said that if we were at school, he would go, but it's the stake.
Am I happy? Yes, very much so :)

Since this is the last post that I am planning to write on this blog (considering the fact that I reached my "goal", which was to plan every song lyric out in every post and end the blog on his birthday), I'll leave with a beautiful YouTube video that someone made along with this beautiful song that has led me and guided me this whole way: ~E~N~C~H~A~N~T~E~D~ by Taylor Swift

Thank you so much for coming to my blog. I might post once in a while, but they will most likely be few and far in between. As for now, so long!

PS He's been fourteen for 12 hours and forty minutes! ;)

Please Don't Be in Love with Someone Else. Please Don't Have Somebody Waiting On You...

And here it is: the finishing lines of this amazing, beautiful song. Speaks my mind completely; takes the words out from my lips. This is my dying wish. I just hope that, if he does love me, he'll wait for me until I see him again.
The following paragraphs are ones that I wrote a while back; I was having a momentary overflowing wave of emotion and love for Arien, and I thought that you might want to read it. BTW, I never sent this to him, I just wrote it as if I was writing it to him.


"All right, that's it. I love him. Arien, I love you. Soooo much. I love how you're always so polite, how you concern yourself with my life and are just so open to me. I love how you're OK with the fact that we don't talk at ALL at school, yet every day, after school, we talk and catch up. I love how you'll laugh at my little wisecracks and how you're so friendly. I love how we have those little inside jokes that some others wouldn't totally understand. I love how kind you are, I love how open-minded you are, I love how ACCEPTING you are, and I love how amazing you are. I love your beautiful sea-green eyes, your neatly cut blond hair, and your smile. I love how you think that every one's opinion matters, and how you watch out for me if it seems like there's something wrong. I love how we have so much in common, but just the right amount of differences, so we can introduce each other to new things. I love your little sister, and how she's so much like you. I love your talents, and how you're so modest when they're applauded. I love how you're obedient and mindful of what is best for you and your future. I love how you know what you want to do and work to make it happen. I love how you know what you're doing with your life.

I could go on and on, but I won't bore you to death, so, simply put, I love you. Soooo much. That's why it kills me to see ANY girl talk to you, or worse, get close to you. That's why I'm so jealous of the people who have known you for all your life. That's why I don't want to think about the day I'll have to let you go."

This Night is Flawless; Don't You Let it Go. I'm Wonder-Struck; Dancing Around All Alone.

This will be one of the shortest posts you will ever see on this blog, but here it is: have I ever mentioned that with the chats I've had with Arien regarding dancing that followed a dance that we attended earlier, no matter where I swerve the subject, he'll always bring it back to the dance, and what I did there. My mom thinks that if he does like me, and keeps asking about the dance, and how I liked it, then he probably wants to know who I danced with, and possibly, who I even like (if he needed any clarification at the time). Plus, if he's shy, and doesn't want to be obvious, then what better way to find something out than beating around the bush about it? But, if he doesn't like me.... well, my mom couldn't figure out why he would keep asking me about the dance.
Now that I look back on it, though, with this knowledge, I feel bad that I didn't really help him out with his questions - didn't really give him any hints to indicate an answer that he would have been looking for.
I wish I could have danced with him...

This Night is Sparkling; Don't You Let it Go. I'm Wonder-Struck; Blushing All the Way Home.

I'm getting sloppy here, I'm posting posts that are supposed to be posted the day before. Better catch on quick, if I want to make my goal!
"Goal, what goal?" you may be asking (sorry, I just came from a church activity, and one of the ladies there is just amazing! I love her sooo much, and whenever I spend time with her, I absorb some of her silly, goofy, dramatic, optimistic energy and it lasts for a couple of hours after that). Well, unless my memory is serving me incorrectly today, I have not mentioned my goal yet, nor will I tell you what it is until I meet it (don't worry, you'll find out in a couple of days!).
Today, I'm not going to write anything that is pertaining to this title post, but it will pertain to Arien (obviously - why wouldn't it??).
It's just that.... I miss him. So much. Too much, in fact. At least I know that it's the summer, and I'm not really going to be able to see anybody as often as I'd like, so that helps a bit, but I don't want to know what I'll have to do when the school year starts up again, and knowing that every time I pass by his locker, there will be no way I can see him; every time we have a school dance, he'll be nowhere to be found; and I'll never be able to go through the halls and randomly see him pass by, or even tap me on the shoulder to talk, if he's got the time. Not for another year and 2 and a half months, that is.

Please Don't Be in Love with Someone Else; Please Don't Have Somebody Waiting On You...

Arien is naturally a quiet, shy guy. So, whenever I see him talk to girls that he seems to be really close friends with (so far, I've counted four), I get extremely jealous (really, though, who wouldn't?). And, every single one of these girls, I've suspected that he liked before I got over the fact that he didn't. I'll call them Bianca, Lauren, Mira, and Kristie. I was able to get over Bianca because I realized that the reason why he was such good friends with her is because that he's known her for absolutely ever. Lauren, because she was his best friend's crush. Mira, because she was just an annoying little brat (sorry, I never did like her) and the pieces just didn't seem to fit. Kristie, because it never seemed like he liked her, but I have a feeling that it was the other way around. Overall, though, I talked to my mom about all of this, and she said to me that from what she knew about Arien (from what I had told her), he seemed like a shy person, so she didn't think that he would step out of his comfort zone around somebody that he liked. That (Number 1) made a lot of sense and (Number 2) made me happy, because no matter how friendly he and I are online, he's always very shy around me.
I'm going to ask a question now. Do you think he likes me?

Please don't have somebody waiting on you..."

These Are the Words I Held Back As I Was Leaving Too Soon:

Let me back up to the last day of the school year.
When the bell rang, we all rushed outside and Tia (code-name) and I were standing near the bus, shedding a few tears as we were hugging another best friend of mine. After we climbed onto the bus, I saw a the majority of my classmates all scattered about underneath the big tree at the front of our school giving out hugs and goodbyes and taking pictures. Arien was out there, obviously, since those people out there were a part of his clique, so I (impulsively) decided to run off the bus and hug some of my good friends and just be with them a bit. As I was hugging Reese (name has been changed), Arien was just a couple of feet away from me, hugging a friend of his. As he let go at the same time that I let go, I quickly made a decision. I gave him a high-five and said, "Have a great summer, Arien." (I used his real name, of course.)
I've left you wondering, now, haven't I? I could have hugged him, but that decision I made was to not hug him.
Why? Well, as much as I wanted to, I thought that maybe I shouldn't, since he's so shy, and he's knows that I like him (along with quite a few of his friends). He may not have wanted that attention. Also, for a split second after we let go of the people that we were hugging, he turned away slightly, almost as if he didn't want a hug, and was trying to avoid it. So, I didn't give him a hug.
Sometimes I wonder if I should have told him that I was enchanted to meet him. I don't know. Maybe I'll get a chance in the future. Who knows?
