Summit on the Summit

Are you following the hikers (more importantly, Emile Hirsch) on their climb up Mount Kilimanjaro to support the Clean Water Crisis? Stalk them. They're posting pics and Tweeting their way to the top!

Nostalgic moment. I was just reading through Taylor Swift's old journal entries and stumbled across her May 29, 2009 post:

So.. This is not smart. This. Being awake at 2:47 AM. You know why? Because my wake up call is at 5:00 AM. I'm playing on the Today show tomorrow/in a few hours, and I'm very excited about it. So excited, in fact, that I haven't really gotten around to sleeping. I've found my attention being drawn to so many different things that I can't possibly sleep. For example: My hotel room has motion censor lighting. So when I stand up or anything moves on the floor, these little lights come on at your feet to show you where you're going. No light switches needed. In my delirious state, I've been making jokes with myself. Every time something triggers the censor lighting, I say "Witchcraft!" or "EVIL!". Then I laugh hysterically. Then I sit there for a few seconds absorbing how lame I sound/look/am at this very moment in time. At 2:47 AM. Talking to the motion censor lighting.My dad is along the ride for this trip, hanging out and talking to every person he comes in contact with. He's a social butterfly, and loves being on tour. He loves it so much, he thinks it's absolutely hilarious to mess with me and try to embarrass me as much as possible. For example: Liz and I are walking into the hotel lobby after returning from dinner. It's a quiet, serene, beautiful hotel lobby and we're walking in when..

Screaming voice from out of nowhere: HEY! THAT'S TAYLOR SWIFT!!

Me: Dad. Please stop doing that.

It's pretty priceless having my dad out here with me. Tonight I went shopping at Top Shop in New York with the band. I got purple shoes. I'm really excited about the purple shoes, and I just needed to tell someone. I got purple shoes. Ok. That's done. Tomorrow, after the performance on the Today show, I'll fly back to Nashville and record a lot of new songs I've written in the last few weeks. I'm really excited about that. I want to get back to the tour though. Bad. I miss it every time I'm gone for a day. I've never had more fun doing anything in my life than I have on the Fearless tour. Thank you so much to everyone who has come to see the show. I can't even tell you how unreal it is for me, being up there, looking at those crowds. I just never thought I'd luck out like this.I'm really excited because Dateline NBC has been following me around for the last three months, video taping me planning this tour. They've put together a one-hour special about my tour, and it's airing some time within the next two weeks. I'll keep you posted on the exact date. I'd love for you to see the months of work leading up to me getting to put on this show. Also, I learned how to make a smoothie. It's very ground-breaking footage, I'm telling you. Keep checking back here, and on twitter. By the way, again, I'm taylorswift13 on twitter. There are a bunch of fake twitters that are apparently mine, and while they are amusing and creative, they're not real. :)

Well, I have some more important nonsense to get to. I'm going to go play with the light switches or the air conditioning control panel in my hotel room. Then I'm going to play the Today Show!

I love you, thanks to everyone who's been voting for the CMT awards at CMT.com!

Stay excellent. I adore you.

Funny, at 2:47AM on May 29, 2009, I was totally laying on the streets of NYC waiting for Taylor to perform on the Today Show. ;)

See Here, and Here.

Hey, Jude.

Swoon.

I'm absolutely going to see Sherlock Holmes now!

Taylor Swift - NYTimes Style

Love her "doll" style spread! Watch her Screen Test Film here! Also, take a look at my past favorites: Joseph Gordon Levitt, Rosario Dawson, James Franco, Megan Fox

Seriously, Yum.

John's on the December cover of Details!! AND -- it comes out Tuesday! (I was totally planning to run to the bookstore like a maniac as soon as it opened anyway. I swear.)

There are high quality versions here, here, & here if you want a new desktop picture! ;)

You're welcome.

Resentment

• If someone hurts you, react. Forgiveness comes afterwards.
• Resentment is like drinking poison....and waiting for the other person to die.

Via two of my favorite twitter-ers: Dita Von Teese & Paulo Coelho respectively.

JGL Opening Monologue

WOW.

Joshua Radin

I saw Joshua Radin at Webster Hall last night & he was A M A Z I N G ! It was even filmed for his first live concert DVD so didn't worry about getting good pictures on my no-zoom dino-cam.

(I can't wait to find myself!) :D

P.S. These pictures do him no justice. The man is gorgeous.

These songs are some of my favs:

Oh yeah, Zach Braff was there too. Seems strange, but I didn't want to take a picture of him because I thought it'd be rude. :|

This Made My Night

Pre-Sales!

Got my code for JM's concert pre-sales this afternoon!

I was mid-class when my phone buzzed to tell me I got it.

I couldn't stop smiling!! ..People stared.

Eeeek!

Madison Square Garden, here I come!!

We will not be this far ever again!

RT JohnCMayer: If you’re shocked that Britney was lip-syncing at her concert and want your money back, life may continue to be hard for you.

RT JohnCMayer: “There’s no discounting for bad taste.” – Me, just now.

Love him! <3

11/21: Night Occupied!

I'm so excited! Joseph Gordon Levitt is hosting SNL on 11/21. (Psh, just another reason why November's so great!) How do I even get tickets to SNL? I wanna go!!

From his Twitter: @hitRECordJoe

Love Love Love

6 new Taylor songs! Who's excited?

Chuck and Blair

Words can not explain how much I love Chuck Bass.

Gossip Girl will always be one of my favorite shows [f*** ratings!]..

..along with Glee, Drop Dead Diva, and Grey's Anatomy!

Dear Anna

We've missed you.

James Franco

Love him.
