Taylor Swifts’ Wisdom

As we are all looking towards the end of the semester, our minds are clouded with the stress of finals and the pressure of performing perfectly. We may find ourselves prioritizing our grades and resumes over our mental health. I have felt this as the burn out of the semester has left me drained. However, this past week, Taylor Swift released her rerecording of her album Red. I used this event to bond with my friends and scream some amazing songs. This served as a mental reset for me. One song that settled my anxiety was Begin Again and the lyric, “But on a Wednesday, in a café, I watched it begin again.” This lyric pushed me to reconsider my situation and make changes in my life to create a proactive, joyful situation. I challenge y’all to use Taylor Swifts wisdom for the end of the semester. Take some deep breaths, reflect on your emotions, and begin again, refreshed and ready for finals. Good luck to everyone finishing out the semester and make sure to listen to Red (Taylor’s Version)!
