Unless you've been avoiding the internet recently, you're probably aware that Taylor Swift dropped a new single, titled "ME!" featuring Brendon Urie from Panic! At The Disco, this week. Since she hasn't released any new music since "Reputation" in 2017, Swifties everywhere were ecstatic. The music video for "ME!" quickly became the #1 trending video on YouTube and the bop is bound to top the Billboard charts as well.
Here are 16 instances from the music video and the lyrics that perfectly explain the end of the semester for college students.

you’ve complained too much: “I know I tend to make it about me”
