Entry for the Ellen Show

Hello everyone,
This seemed like an appropriate post.
This is the essay I wrote for the Ellen show to try and get picked to meet Taylor.

Hi Ellen! I am so nervous writing this letter. I'm afraid that whatever I write, I won't be able to communicate to you just how much I love Taylor and how much she means to me. But I guess I should start by telling you how I watch your show every day and I love you so much. I really do. So whenever Taylor is on your show it's like a perfect storm of things that make me happy. I've seen you bring people on to the show before who were huge Taylor fans and I've always wanted to be one of them, but I never thought I was good enough or interesting enough. The truth is, I'm just a normal college girl from Pennsylvania. I haven't done anything particularly amazing or inspiring with my life so far. But one thing that has been true since I was 16 years old is that I have loved and admired Taylor Swift. She's always been such an amazing role model for me, and I feel like we've grown up together. I admire her grace, her poise, her fearlessness, and her ability to find good in everything. When I got to college and in the first few weeks and didn't know anyone, Taylor and her music were always there for me. It was like having a friend right there even when I was alone. Taylor has always been someone I've looked up to, admired, and respected. Meeting her is a dream I can't even begin to imagine. I've dreamt about a lot of things in my life, but since I was 16, meeting her has always been my biggest one. It's a lot to hope for but I think/hope/pray that maybe, just maybe, this time it's my turn. 

:)


If any of you feel so inclined I would love it if you could tweet Ellen and tell her about me!
