Washington, Nov 22 : Taylor Swift has admitted that her albums reflect her life like a diary of her life.

The "Love Story" singer has always written about her own life and experiences, and sees new album as an update on how her life has developed.

"Writing my own songs was a way for me to create what I wanted to create and music about my life," Contactmusic quoted her as saying at the American Music Awards.

"In that way it kind of became a diary put to music every time I put out a new record," she stated.

Swift also admitted she has a habit of breaking down her feelings and putting them into different categories to help her write her songs, mostly based around her feelings about love.

"I break down emotions into like 50 million categories. There's the missing him kind of sadness. There's the frustrated and confused, don't know why it ended kind of sadness, there's the sadness tinged with anger," she said in US TV show `60 Minutes Overtime.'

Taylor won three awards at the AMAs, including the night's top award, Artist of the Year. (ANI)
