I Just Saw Haley's Comet

Ooof, stress.

2011-05-19T13:04:00.000-07:00

My summer is ohhh so stressful.

Today I'm planning to workout.

Swim{slash}tan.

Take in some pants.

And thrift.

Wow. SOOO stressful.

I hope all you working babies are having a fabulous day!

xoxo.

Oh the children

2011-05-18T11:50:00.000-07:00

So.... funny story.

I nanny.

Overnight.

A couple nights a week.

The cutest most adorable children.

In the ENTIRE universe.

And they straight up say/do the darndest things.

Example:

Yesterday Em calls my name,

I can hear her and Lo dying in a fit of laughter.

so, naturally, I make her wait ten minutes,

then I come in to see she has made me a Mii Character.

It looked a little something like this:

Not only was I black and have a mustache.

But I looked like Mr. T.

Oh. And I was fat.

I remember the first time I came over and used sarcasm,

they thought I was straight insane,

now, oh man, they can dish it.

Those little monsters I have created.

I have inadvertently begun a war in that house....

Boy am I glad Matty can't talk yet.

Cause with sisters like that?

Good luck Matt.

I pity the fool.

xoxo.

My Summer Bucket List. {LEGIT}

2011-05-17T09:50:00.000-07:00

My Summer Bucket List:

{If I don't complete the list by the end of summer,

my punishment?

I have to kick the bucket.

Which for your information is like kick the can,

but with a bucket.

Much more classy.}

-....uhh.....nothing.

I'm doing nothing this summer.

And I have to do it.

See above for the fine print.

Ya. That just happened.

Happy summer everyone.

HA!

xoxo.

Card.Board.Boxes?

2011-05-16T11:12:00.000-07:00

Situation:

I rented some text books for this semester.

Only problem with renting is that they must be RETURNED.

To some obscure place in who-knows-where-middle-America.

So my parents have been riding me to get on it, considering they are due back this week.

Obviously I've been putting it off.

But today my Dad woke me up and threatened to force feed me milk if I didn't do it.

Calm down.

That was a joke.

My Dad would never do that.... because then he'd have to hear my whining.

aaaaanyway,

we couldn't find boxes anywhere.

So that innovative father of mine decided me would make boxes out of cardboard.

Convo:

Me: "Wow Dad, I'm so freaking impressed with you right now."

{Insert sarcasm.... here.}

Dad: "Why? Because I can make a box out of cardboard?"

Me: "Ya, I think anyone else would've just gone and bought one."

Me again: "I think you could make a career out of this."

Dad: "Haley, if you are that impressed with this I'm surprised you aren't married yet."

Me: "None of my guy friends would be able to do that."

Dad: "Alright I'm going to go call ____. I'll bet he could do it. And he is my favorite."

Realization:

I probably would marry a guy who could make boxes out of cardboard.

Cause I really was THAT impressed.

Almost...

2011-05-11T13:45:00.000-07:00

Today is the last day of finals.

Whoooooo.

Now everyone can stop holding their breath.

And by everyone I mean me.

There is something about finals that makes me...

sad to see best friends go,

sad to have to give up hang out time,

happy as all get out to not have school,

and want to move to China... uhh... more on that later.

But really.

4 more pages of this paper and a spanish final later we will be made over.

Hawttt dog.

xoxo.

Life.

2011-05-10T10:02:00.000-07:00

"What is your ideology. Explain. Expand. 3-5 pages."

I woke up on Sunday and got ready super fast.

I jumped in the car to go pick up Celeste for church.

I got halfway there and realized-

I'm happy.

I'm completely blissful.

My life isn't going exactly the way I want it,

but I just don't care.

And I think that's what happiness is.

Not how your life is going,

but how you feel about it.

{Take a picture while horsing. I dare you. It's hilar.}

One day I'll get married, or I won't.

One day I'll get my degree, or I won't.

One day I'll be in the best shape of my life, well, that has to happen.

One day I'll love everyone, HA! Oooor I won't.

One day I'll sleep more than 3 hours.

But today? I'm content.

xoxo.

Break tiiiime

2011-04-14T18:57:00.000-07:00

I just have too much going on in my life to blog right now.

I'm sorry.

I love you all.

I'm going through some personal crises that need to be addressed with my whole heart.

Once that's done,

I'll be back.

And more legit then ever.

Truuuust me.

Alone time starts NOW.

xoxo.

...looks like

2011-04-10T20:26:00.000-07:00

Everyone,

this is my cousin Sid.

{Oh hi cousin Pres. THAT'S a hot face.}

So when you look at Sid-spice

What celeb do you think she looks like?

Anyway,

there is a point,

really,

I promise.

Just think SUUUPER hard.

Oh hey Kirsten Dunst,

just have your people,

call Sid's people,

and you can do all the movies with you as a kid you want.

Kthx.

xoxo.

Hi there.

2011-04-09T10:59:00.000-07:00

So I finally shook the flu.

Thank goodness.

But with that comes a return to school,

and all the homework that comes with it.

Effff.

Oh well, I have The Yellowcard/SummerSet/AllTimeLow concert to look forward too.

Ooh and the rain.

Hollerrrr.

xoxo.

PS I refuse to work out with people who have personal trainers.

New rule.

Sick-spice television.

2011-04-04T19:26:00.000-07:00

Sometimes I'm ill.

And skip school

And spend the day on the couch doing my favorite thing,

being a couch potato.

1.General Conference

(I hate watching it all in 2 days. It's too much to digest. So I split it up. It rocks.)

2. The O.C.

(I know this show is hecka old and I've seen every episode. But please. It is amazing.)

PS - Today Marissa died. I may or may not have cried all over again.

3. What I Like About You

(Amanda Bynes is a tard. But all the boys love her anyway and it makes me laugh!)

4.Gilmore Girls

(They are so freaking hilar. I have pretty much every episode memorized. Ask me if I care?)

xoxo.

Cousins

2011-04-02T21:24:00.000-07:00

I love my cousin Ashley like a sister.

I love that we dance the same,

that we both love to party,

that we are equally blunt/rude,

I just love us.

We are watching Alice and Wonderland and laughing our faces off.

Family always has your back.

I love that.

xoxo.

Freak Ratio

2011-03-31T10:05:00.000-07:00

I was talking to Danielle the other day...

Oh hiiiii there Danielle.

{Just ignore Dal and I. We look tarded.}

Anyway, we were talking and I realized I sound like a freak on paper.

If I didn't know me,

I would think- that girl is a freak.

Afraid of stickers and nail polish.

Hates lotion.

Went 4 months a year without shaving her legs all of high school.

Can bench press more than Danielle...

I mean her body weight. Hahaha.

Anyway you get the picture.

So then Danielle tries to come up with my she is a freak.

....

I take cold showers sometimes

...

Nice try girl.

My freak > Your freak.

xoxo.

Whoops

2011-03-29T20:58:00.000-07:00

So.... I think I've done bad.

I forgot to say the best news evERRRR.

The best friend Jame-spice is engaged!

Ya.

I've never been so stoked in my life.

Now help me convince her to tan before the big day.

Love,

me.

xoxo.

MORE thoughts.

2011-03-27T19:31:00.000-07:00

Who considers 2-4 pages short answer??

KillMeNow.

On another note has anyone read The Mortal Instruments Series?

Or Graceling?

Or Fire??

Do it.

And get back to me.

I've debated my parents on them enough.

xoxo.

Thoughts.

2011-03-25T18:06:00.002-07:00

Sometimes I'm concerned.

I hate gushiness.

It makes me too freaking awkward.

I can't marry a romantic.

But then again, aren't all men secretly romantics?

Calling all single emotion-less men.

HA!

xoxo.

Cali... land.

2011-03-20T11:46:00.000-07:00

Oh heyyy there.

Did you miss me?

I missed you.

Oh of cooourse.

So now that we are done living the high life.

I have to say, I'm not so fond of reality.

I ~~want~~ NEED life to be fake.

So in honor of a week well spent these are my top 5 favorite pictures of

SPRING BREAK in the land called Cali.

{I can't tell you exactly what we are doing.

But I CAN tell you that we are hilar,

and six hours of blah makes us think we are too.}

{Joe Arnett and Jimmy Blair came around to play with us for a while.

We have some... uhh.... interesting stories.

Nice to meet you Jimmy.

Riiiiiiiip.

Use your imagination.}

{The lighthouse.

Gotta love my parents for taking a picture of Danielle and I...

Wait, where is everyone else??

Joe and Jimmy of COURSE run into an aunt and uncle in the middle of nowhere Point Loma.

So when Joe's mom calls him after and says,

"why didn't the other girls go?"

We had to laugh.}

{PS Jamie,

I think that makes Joe the official winner of the

"who knows more people contest."

Sorry loser.}

{Joe raved about this place.

So we went.

It was pretty good,

Watching Danielle try to pick up Navy Seals was better though I think.}

{Ohhh Pappa and his sunsets.

He has an addiction.

I say, atleast take a picture of us in front of it.

Yay Califonyaaa.}

Needless to say,

I had SOOO much fun.

What did you do??

Leave me a link if you feel so inclined.

I need to hear some fabulous stories.

And if you didn't fart in front of some guys,

your spring break OBVIOUSLY wasn't as successful.

Face.Palm.

xoxo.

PS- My mom may or may not have been feeding my dad grapes while he drove.

hilarrrrr.

Vintage...y

2011-03-11T19:07:00.000-07:00

{Vintage Haley}

Do you ever find pictures that make you laugh so hard you cry?

Point. in. case.

"To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else

is the greatest accomplishment."

-Ralph Waldo Emerson.

I am greatful for my friends.

Who love me for who I am.

I am greatful for my family.

Who mock me for who I am.

I am greatful for myself,

because I know who I am.

xoxo.

I fly like paper

2011-03-10T11:12:00.000-07:00

Alright,

I know I've been M.I.A. lately.

Don't ask me how school is going,

I may start crying with stress.

19 credit hours is totally managable.

Til midterms.

Mannnn.

Can't wait til finals.

HA!

I had a lot of friends home from BYU last weekend though.

So that eased my pain.

Oh heyyy there Bahama Bucks.

xoxo.

PS - Cali is soonsoonsoon!

The Music Died.

2011-03-04T10:30:00.002-07:00

Obviously today isn't the day the music died.

But in hopes that it never does,

here are this weeks listens.

"Pretty Girl Rock" - Keri Hilson.

I love this song this week.

I hated it last week.

It is just so conceited and hilar.

"143" - Bobby Brackins feat. Ray J

I'm OBsessed.

I listen to this song all day errrday and my parents want to kill me.

Please jam out and be in love.

"New Soul" - Yael Naim

I don't usually like slow songs,

but for some reason this song is like double time in my head or something!

It's legit.

"I'm so Paid" - Akon

I know this song is ancient.

But I resurrected it.

Believe with me.

"Please Don't Go" - Mike Posner

First thing you should know.

I HATE Mike Posner.

Second thing.

I LOVE the verses of this song!

He redeemed himself,

so I'll let him be.

aaaaaand finally

"Creep" - The Lonely Island.

Sorry, I just think this is the funniest thing in my entire life.

BAHAHAHAHA.

xoxo.

Laugh. At my life.

2011-03-03T12:09:00.000-07:00

Creep.

Yesterday I get the roll in calculus

(we pass it around snake style and everyone just writes their name)

and my name is already written.

So I turn to the guy behind me.

Like whaaa?

(Backstory - He hates me. Because I thought he was talking to me once.

"Is your name Lee??!"

"No. But it is Haley. Hey, Lee. ~~Idiot~~.")

"No. That wasn't me."

Okay. Calm down.

So then I look up the next row.

Wow.

I know everyone on that row.

This is embarrassing.

So I proceed to try to guess who did it.

They are all snickering.

Ya. funny joke guys.

I almost got my head bitten off.

I love having friends like this.

I was only upset I didn't think of it.

xoxo.

My life be like.

2011-03-02T15:08:00.000-07:00

My life is like this.

{I pwn calculus.}

{I work out 24/7. No lie. Addiction.}

{I'm an average college student. And by that I mean... my face is stuck like this}

{I've decided doing outfit pictures is fun, but just not me.}

{So I'm just gonna post whatever pictures I send Jamie that day. Hahaha.}

xoxo.

Spring BREAK! Wait whaaaa?

2011-03-01T20:27:00.000-07:00

I've been trying super hard not to count down to Spring Break.

Whyyyy??

Because the countdown for midterms is one day shorter.

As much as I tell myself I won't subtract that extra day in my head

and have a secret want to kill myself countdown.

I know I will.

So my solution?

Skip that day.

That way I can't subtract a day or I'll be a day early.

I know, I know, my logic is horribly flawed.

So whatttt?

9 days til Cali with my bestiesss!

Thaaaaat. Just happened.

xoxo.

PS - My mom told me today I had a "repositioning of assets."

Ya.

Just think about that.

Hahaha.

What time is it?

2011-02-27T16:42:00.000-07:00

GAME TIME WHOOOOH.

{Secret}

I sat home and watched One Tree Hill all day.

{Reality}

I can't believe I used to love this show.

Everything is so dramatic and emotional all day errrrday.

It's redic.

{Secret}

My phone is broken.

So I can see who is calling, but I can't answer.

{Reality}

I love being divorced from my phone.

I really don't need all the attention I thought I needed.

{Secret}

I talked to my Dad last night about school.

{Reality}

All things will be revealed soon.

{Secret}

Yesterday while hiking Camelback Mountain.

I gave up.

I literally thought

I don't want to go up anymore

I don't want to go down

they can helicopter me out cause it just isn't worth it.

{Reality}

Hiking for 3 hours by yourself tests your character.

At that dramatic moment I had to decide who I was.

So I got up, and ran the rest of the way.

And there it issss.

xoxo.

Tongue Twister - Loads of homework style.

2011-02-25T14:50:00.000-07:00

Say differentiable five times fast.

differentiabledifferen-tiablediff-eren-tiablediff-er-en-tiablediff...

oh I give up.

xoxo.

PS - I'm fried. I neeeed something to happen in my life.

There is nothing for me here.

This one time...

2011-02-23T10:40:00.000-07:00

Let me preface this.

My Mom can't keep her eyes open.

Ever.

And by that I mean for pictures.

Haha.

So last week at Red Robin I decided we should have a little photosesh.

These are just representative of the 5.7 billion we ACTUALLY took.

Thanks Momma for making me cry laughing.

Oh and Dad. For making fun of her.

THAT was the funny part.

{Yes. I am mocking her.}

{Yes. STILL mocking her.}

BAHAHAHAHAHA.

xoxo.

Thissss morning...

2011-02-22T08:40:00.000-07:00

Woahhh.

I put new batteries in my toothbrush.

It was like freaking trench warfare World War One style in my mouth.

Anyway,

so yesterday we broke in Joe Arnett.

{Jamie's man}

at Maggiano's.

{Oh haiiii}

We had a little trouble taking a picture AFTER we were all stuffed.

Ya. We were pregnant.

By the stuffed mushrooms... yummm.

Oh hey and you know how I am allergic to milk?

So the waiter legit brought out the chef to make all these special alterations for me!

Suuuper sweet!

Soya,Ihadspecialshrooms.

No big.

xoxo.

PS - He passed. Hahaha.

Movie ADDICT

2011-02-21T16:34:00.000-07:00

Ask me how many times I've gone to the movies since Friday.

Alright, fine.

3 times.

HAHA.

Scale of 1-10

Here is the rundown:

I am Number Four

I wanted this to be better.

I read the book.

I loved the book.

I watched the movie.

And wished it was shorter.

The Eagle

Ya. That good.

I really loved this movie.

Not just the guy from Jumper is in it.

But okay, he rocks.

Unknown

I don't love Liem.

And by that I mean-

worst acting everrrr man!

But the plot twist was literally a twist.

I like to be surprised,

and at the end I was happy with the result.

Alright, now I'm off to Maggiano's with the fam.

Best food ever.

Go there. Now.

MMMMMM...

Happy Day off from school yo!

xoxo.

Sunbunnn

2011-02-20T10:47:00.000-07:00

{She's indecisive.

She can't decide.}

Thank you Sean Kingston,

for defining indecisive for everyone.

Happy Sunday,

xoxo.

Saturday.

2011-02-19T13:19:00.000-07:00

Remember that one time I ran into my Political Science Professor

at the movies

last night?

by himself

Embarrassing.

PS I need a Utah trip ASAP.

I'm now auditioning for partners in crime.

MiLOVE

2011-02-18T15:45:00.000-07:00

Dear Friday.

I love you.

I love that "I am Number Four" came out in theatres today.

I love that my Dad and I spent the upside of 10 minutes obsessing

about the fish tank

and how those fish get busy 24/7.

I love how we can go to lunch and be obsessed with Angry Birds.

Ya. That actually happened.

Peter and Richard love each other. PS.

I love that people think my Dad and I are dating. Except not. Naaaast.

I love Taylor and that he comes over and gives me music.

I love that we get Monday off school.

Love itttt.

xoxo.

Music. Makes the people. Come to-geth-ahhh.

2011-02-17T13:55:00.000-07:00

I got asked today how many hours

{on average}

I probably dance a day

Sadly... I had to answer...

3??

I'm obsessed.

If I could actually dance it would probably be better...

So I have some very.... unique taste in music.

In love.

2011-02-16T13:50:00.000-07:00

I need a man.

Why?

Because I am in love with the song Rhythm of Love.

And it'd be nice to have someone to think about instead of happy dead space in my head.

Kthx.

xoxo.

Contradiction

2011-02-14T11:13:00.002-07:00

Life is a straight contradiction sometimes.

Everyone who meets me has someone they think I'm practically identical too.

I don't know how many times I've heard-

"You are the girl version of so and so..."

Which is weird because none of the people I'm like-

are like each other.

And it's not like they are wrong.

I see myself in these people.

Isn't that bazaar?

Then I can talk for hours with someone,

we have everything in common,

months of commonality even.

Then one day it just doesn't compute.

I don't get their logic,

I don't get THEM.

It's happened so many times.

It makes me wonder.

Am I THAT inconsistant?

I honestly don't relate to people sometimes.

I have this black and white rationale that most people don't have.

It worries me sometimes.

I'm so unique

I'm so identical

It's all just a huge contradiction.

xoxo.

Tainted Love.

2011-02-13T21:02:00.002-07:00

Sunday nights are the worst.

You know you have school the next day.

So it taints the night's activities.

I'd rather it be Monday.

xoxo.

Goals

2011-02-12T09:39:00.000-07:00

i'm trying to decide if it's a good idea to blog in this state.

{I know, worst picture of all time, but it was hard to stop the party!}

By that I mean- I went to my first concert last night!

And although I don't drink (obvi), I get pretty in to these types of things-

So I screamed and head banged and...

just sneezed all over my computer. Wowww Haley.

Anyway,

I'm majorly exhausted.

And for some reason woke up at 5 in the morning.

HA!

Random share:

I have 2 goals by the end of the year.

Scratch that, 3.

1.Invest in the stock market.

2.Buy the perfect jean jacket.

3.Be the "girl who studies" - ya. that girl.

I'm told dreams come true.

Mine are definitely attainable ya?

xoxo.

Tally ho!

2011-02-11T13:44:00.001-07:00

Time to add up the points:

Walking into the little boys room. -10 (epic fail)

Referencing Glenn Beck in the most liberal class known to mankind. +100

Finish my 5 page paper from hell. +1,000,000

Making it to my communications class on time... almost. +1 (for trying)

Surviving. +10

Alright lets see.... that makes....

1,000,101

[Now pick a song about winning and awesomeness and insert here.]

Extra points for whoever picks the best song!

HA!

xoxo.

PS- Sometimes I type things and put them in a certain kind of brackets,
that writes them into code.
Fail.

This week.

2011-02-10T15:29:00.000-07:00

So.... I promised outfit posts so people could see my insane outfits.

Funny thing...

about that....

I'm awful at remembering.

So I've gotten two done this week and entirely missing the day I wore purple tights and striped shorts...

together.

HA!

But here is what I DID manage to get:

Yes I am aware my garage looks like a small house.
Please laugh with me when people try to say I should move in there.
And sleep on the cement?
Ya- thanks. But no thanks.

Anyway, my mind is wrapped up in Roosevelt's mediation of the 1904-05 Russo-Japan conflict.
Ummm whaaaa??
Exactly.

My life.
Right now.

Much loves,
xoxo.

Hairsss.

2011-02-09T10:38:00.000-07:00

So my wonderful best friend Jenn (Passey) Ray cut my hair last night.

She wants me to perm it.

Undoubtedly I would rock it in a way that I couldn't in highschool,

but I told her it'll have to wait til after I've snagged a hubby and he HAS to love me.

So that leads me to the fact that I'll never find someone crazy enough for me.

Therefore my hair will be straight and boring forever.

I'll perm it in 2 years if I'm still pathetically single.

Love, me.

xoxo.

Shhhh.

2011-02-08T13:06:00.001-07:00

{I've been on the brink, so

tell me what you want to hear-

something that will light those ears,

Sick of all the insincere.

I'm gonna give all my secrets away.}

I spend an inordinate amount of time in this position.

Reading books.

That have no meaning.

xoxo.

Shout out!

2011-02-07T13:46:00.000-07:00

So there are a slew of people-

who have been making my life in unexpected ways this week.

Can I just say that I love random love?

Although I hate sappy. So I'm pretty sure this is conflicting...

Anyway here is my picture shout out.

In Profile Picture Form.

Yes. I know these are random.

But that just goes to show-

sometimes you don't even know when you are making someone's day.

xoxo.

The Drunkard...

2011-02-06T10:59:00.000-07:00

...that is me.

HA!

Let me explain.

I love to put vanilla in my Dr.Pepper

(You know like at QT?)

Now, jump to yesterday,

Jamie and I are making fabulous peanut butter cookies

(Lactose freeee)

and I'm putting in vanilla and I ask my mom

"What is the difference between imitation vanilla and vanilla extract?"

"Vanilla extract is the expensive stuff." -mom

"Oh so I shouldn't use it anymore in my Dr. Pepper?"

"No! Because it has alcohol in it! -dad

"Like rubbing alcohol?"

"No, like 'get you drunk' alcohol!" -dad

"Hahahahahahahaahahahahaha. ohhh.... I thought it tasted weird..."

So there you have it.

I'm a ~~drunkard~~ dummy.

Love, me.

xoxo.

PS - Yes I did have to look up how to spell alcohol.

Embarrassing...

Uncharted Waters

2011-02-04T17:18:00.000-07:00

I'm about to enter into uncharted waters.

And by that I mean-

an outfit post.

Suprisingly I got a lot of requests to see my absurd outfit I described a couple days a go.

But all that stuff is dirty.

So seeing as I've lately become obsessed with fashion.

I'm going to show you today's outfit.

Loose Flower Blouse - PacSun

Cream Cardi - Charlotte Russe

Brown Braided Belt - Forever 21

White Stiched Jeans - So Cute Botique

Vintage Man shoes - G.W. Warehouse (aka GoodWill)

And there you have it.

I'm no BBL

HA!

Have a terrif. Friday!

Meanwhile I'll be attacking the 3 papers I have due asap.

Send me happy stress free vibes please!

Love, me

As Far as Food Goes...

2011-02-03T09:53:00.000-07:00

I have a confession.

I eat.

Not like

the recommended amount to live,

but a billion gazillion times that.

So ya.

Believe me when I say-

As far as food goes...

I'm an expert.

Some of my favorite places to eat.

Neds/Steves Krazy Sub

I was originally a Subway girl,

then a Cheeba Hut girl (no I do NOT do drugs. Haha.),

then... no never a Jimmy Johns girl.

But my cousin Ashley loves Ned's and it is conveniently in between us.

So we go to lunch there.

A lot.

ie - yesterday.

I love the bread.

I'm obsessed with bread and theirs is devine.

Angel Sweet

Okay. So this isn't really a food place perrrsay.

But gelato is the shiz,

and the fruit flavors aren't dairy based so I can eat them!

pshhhhah!

I've even got my parents addicted.

I go to Angel Sweet atleast 3 times a week.

ie - yesterday.

With my friend Chris.

They've just learned to expect us now I think.

In & Out Burger

Yum.

This place grew on me too.

But their burgers are pretty much dairy free

and they are open til 2 in the morning.

Midnight runs?

all day errrday.

Costa Vida.

Eat there.

Period.

Wowww everytime I put one down I think of two more.

Other honorable/ more expensive/ non college student approved mentions:

Red Lobster

Red Robin

Z-Tejas (Get a burger here and you will die. of love.)

Serranos

Texas Roadhouse

~~Claim Jumper~~ new chef... off the master list

Cheesecake Factory

aaaand deserts:

Bahama Bucks

Jamba Juice

Cold Stone

Alright now I'm starved and it's 9 in the morning! Hahaha.

Have a fabulous day and let me know if you yay or nay my favorites.

Love, me.

xoxo.

Today.

2011-02-02T21:31:00.000-07:00

Today:

I gave a speech in communications on how to curl hair.

For some reason this was funny??

I wore peach grandma shorts,

grey tights,

a tucked in grey sweater,

black flats,

and my Dad's Navy Peacoat.

I thought it was absurd/risky-awesome.

I got a lot of ~~compliments.~~

"Wow you totally pulled that off!

If I wore that I would look like I escaped from a mental institution."

uhhh. thanks.

"No really. You look great."

Note: I no longer consider this a compliment...

I made bread.

For the 4th time in a week...ish

I'm pretty much a domestic godess.

And by that I mean...

I mess it up in some awkward way almost every time.

I read outloud to my napping friend.

I made some friends cheese crips.

(Even though I can't partake)

and I accidentally burned one a little.

While trying to scrape of the burn secretly SOMEONE turned on the water.

Ever had a soggy burnt cheese crip?

I got an email from a volunteer organization I am stoked to hopefully be a part of.

It's insane how much I've changed this year.

I wanted to go running tonight.

Everyone was being all whimp-spice and wouldn't go with me.

And my Dad would never let me go alone.

So I drove 15 minutes to the gym

(that closed in 45 minutes)

and ran on the treadmill all by my lonesome.

Also- I made bread again.

I'm either a domestic godess

or really good at avoiding homework.

{My hair is ferosh}

xoxo

aaaaall better!

2011-02-01T17:24:00.000-07:00

So I got sat down today.

And given a talking to.

Innnn the back of my car.

(I know sounds majorly awk.)

Let me make this very clear.

I've been overreacting to some things.

OVERreacting.

It's fine if I REACT,

but I took it to the extreme.

This friend convinced me that I shouldn't give up something that I love

(friends)

because I feel the need to be independent of a certain part of them.

Agreed.

I love you all.

xoxo.

Morning Thoughts

2011-02-01T09:07:00.000-07:00

A little morning quickie...

uhhhh.

Awk-spice.

I just have some more things weighing heavily on my mind.

You know-

that thing that ruins my life.

Sometimes I talk.

And I can feel myself crashing.

Sometimes I overreact.

i.e. Last night.

{Vintage Haley}

Sometimes I change my major to Political Science.

And I wake up literally crying with how happy I am.

Sometimes I take 19 credit hours.

And I wake up literally crying with how I can't take it.

Conclusions:

Talk less,

Freak out less,

Cry less.../more.

Realizations.

2011-01-31T22:25:00.001-07:00

I took the week off.

So sue me.

I've had some inner turmoil as of late.

Emotionally,

Physically,

Spiritually,

Academically.

I've been in denial about some things.

I'm just now begininning to accept them.

And with this acceptance comes the realization that I need to truly give up my social life.

I can't really explain why,

but as of tomorrow-

I'm going to cut it down to a minimum.

I need a return to basics,
I realize I've never truly been alone and that is something I need.
I need to be okay with this.
I need to not rely on my friends.
Because sometimes,
they just aren't reliable.
And it truly isn't fair to get secretly upset with them,
for this or for that.

I need to go to the temple.
I need to spend copius amounts of time in my books.
I need to try- really really hard to pretend like I'm okay.
And just maybe-
I'll fake it til I make it.

I'm sorry if this hurts your feelings.

I need it.

To be whole.

Dramatically yours,
xoxo

2011-01-24T17:36:00.000-07:00

Lately all my friends blog posts have been...

a little depressing?

Repetitive?

CRAZY?

I guess I just don't get it.

I am, by NO means, skinny, OR hot.

But I have never had image issues.

In fact, when people call me fat I agree,

not because I'm down on myself,

but because, literally, I've let myself get a little chunkster.

So to all my friends who are down on themselves:

You might be fat.

You might be ugly.

But you probably aren't.

Eat some more homemade bread

and take pictures next to some skinny girls.

It always seems to work for me.

xoxo.

PS I know we match. Wasn't planned. We are just freaking awesome.

Socially UNacceptable

2011-01-23T21:32:00.000-07:00

You know when you realize you are becoming socially awkward?

Like that ONE thing you had going for you-

just isn't GOING anymore?

Ya. That happened to me today.

And the worst part?

I could feel it eating me.

Like- I MOCK people who are awkward.

And, I mean, ya, I'm awkward. Sorta...

But on PURPOSE.

Not really.

Today?

It was really.

ASSIMILATION WEEK

2011-01-22T20:41:00.000-07:00

I like to call the first week of school:

ASSIMILATION WEEK.

As in...

Ya. I'm in school.

But REALLY I'm still on break.

It's when you attend classes but still don't have any homework.

Assimilation week.

Let me outline the particulars for you.

Tuesday.

I discovered my good friend Peter is in my calculus class.

Peter will be third wheeling it with me and my calc. book all day errrday.

Wednesday.

Danielle read the dictionary while I "taytay"-ed her hair.

PS that means curled.

Like Taylor Swift.

Oh and then she wanted to use her new found knowledge to beat me in Boggle.

It didn't happen.

But I mean...

My score was 209.

And hers was.... lower.

Nice try Danieller.

Thursday.

I went to a different sub joint every single day this week.

Friday was the peak.

Like. Twice. Woahhh.

If you haven't been to Cheba Hut.

Hurry.

And get the fruity pebbles rice krispy treat.

Nomnomnom.

Friday.

My cousin and I showed up to hang out.

And low and behold.

We are practically matching in all our grungy glory.

Ummm I know it's sideways.

Get over it.

Saturday.

I am rushing to finish any and all novels I have started this week.

Why?

Because it distracts me from my school work.

Theeeeerefore.

I ban myself from all novels all semester long.

If you haven't read these three books.

Do so.

Now.

Oh and now that assimilation week is over,

and my Poli Sci books have started coming in the mail.

And I have that one idiot teacher who gave us 4 books.

I think you'll be seeing less of me.

Or more.

Sometimes I rebel.

What can I say?

xoxo.

BOOKS.

2011-01-19T19:05:00.000-07:00

Hi.

Have you ever bought your books online?

Ya.

I just did for the first time.

Epic score.

I've saved over 300 bucks just on my first 5 books.

THAT and watching Hancock has kind of made my life today.

Ya. That's all.

xoxo.

Ooof.

2011-01-17T20:10:00.000-07:00

Sorry.

I've been busy having fun.

Also.

I'm giving up 30 days of Haley.

I just think it might be too much...

So here is what I was doing this weekend.

There were really like a billion more people at Jesse's cabin.

We just didn't feel like playing til after they were all wet and inside.

So we had our own party.

I love little vacays with the friends.

xoxo.

PS It was super nice of Jesse to let us come to his cabin.

He was the most gracious host.

Until he threw me to the ground and dumped a baby pool of snow on me.

That was a little awkward.

How do you fight a 6'4" hairy snowy giant?

January

2011-01-14T17:46:00.001-07:00

Today. I am in Showlow. So Day 04 will have to wait!

But to hold you over in the meantime...

Here is my year thus far in pictures...

As captured by my picture phone.

xoxo.

Day 03

2011-01-13T13:29:00.003-07:00

Day 03 – Your parents

Wow. I can't begin to describe my parents.

Well.

I guess we'll start at the start.

This is the story of my parents. As told by me.

Everything I say here is absolute fact.

They both grew up all over the place.

Dad: Hawai'i, Italy, Hawai'i again, Arizona, Florida, Guam, San Diego

Mom: ...... all over California and Arizona and Utah.

They met at a party in Arizona

(where both of their families were living)

My Dad was home on leave from the Navy for the weekend.

My Mom was home from BYU-Utah for the weekend.

My Dad spent the night introducing her to people she already knew.

She was too nice to tell him so.

(This will be the theme throughout their marriage. HAHA!)

He got her number.

Then drove all the way back from San Diego again the next weekend to go on a date with her.

He called her house and Grammy yelled - "It's a MAN!"

He claims it was early and his voice wasn't normally that low.

Hahaha.

He asked if they could go out.

She tried to blow him off.

She had a reception to go to... I GUESS you could come.

Turns out he knew the people getting married better than my Mom.

Awkward I'd say.

They planned their wedding from 3 different states.

The rest is history.

Oh wait.

I forgot the best parts.

A year and a month later they had Andrew.

He was apparently the "perfect child".

Or so I'm told.

I was the reason they stopped.

Because they had so much love for me.

There was no more room in their hearts.

BAHAHAHAAA!

Some facts about my parents:

-They do the crosswords in the newspaper almost every day.

-They read. A ton. Like I love to read and all, but they make me dizzy.

-They love to vacation. Every picture of them is from one of their various adventures.

-My Dad has to be begged to take pictures of people. He loves scenary.

-My Mom is a science teacher. This explains much of our family conversations.

-My Dad is a retired cop and he pretends his full-time job is Fbook games.

-My Dad is like me on Valium. Or so we've been told.

-Supposedly my Mom used to be like us when my Dad met her... I think he sufficated it out.

-My Dad sings and dances in the car. My Mom snaps.

-They know EVERYTHING about my life... and my friends lives... sorry. Haha.

-They go out to eat more than anyone I've ever heard of.

-They are even more awkward than me... okay sorry Mom. DAD IS.

-They are honest and blunt, in a way that I like to pretend I am.

-They are friends with all my friends- in the craziest ways.

-They are taking me on a cruise this summer... HAHAHAHAHA.

Love these two.

xoxo.

Day 02

2011-01-12T11:24:00.002-07:00

Day 02 – Your first love

Uhhh ohhh.

I hate to be super lame-spice here.

But I don't have a first love!

I'm that girl who has never dated anyone.

(Not for others lack of trying.)

I'm pretty sure I have commitment issues.

And no one is good enough.

Man this post was probably supposed to be marvelous.

Like some epic Taytay (Taylor Swift) song.

I'm sorry to be such a dissapointment.

I promise if/when I have a first love you'll be the third to know.

I like to think we'd know first.

xoxo.

Day 01

2011-01-11T14:45:00.001-07:00

Day 01 – Introduce yourself with pictures and words

Hi. I'm Haley.

I am 19 years old.
I go to MCC.

I changed my major last week...

to political science.

I collect best friends.

Like no joke.
I'm a hangout-a-holic.
And I wouldn't want it any other way.

I love my family.
And as such.
They get mocked like it's their job.

PS the first thing my brother said to me when he got home from his mission 6 months ago was this:
"At first I thought just your face had gotten fat..."
Love.

I'm just an awkward girl who loves to talk.
I love to analyze things untill they make less sense than before.
I love to talk politics and to pretend like one day I will be IN them.
I love things for a moment, hate them in the next.
I am allergic to milk solids.
I love to laugh at everything, even when no one else is.
I don't wake up til noon.
My house is always dark- I like to lurk- it's creepy.
I love to go on vacation.
I love to hug people.
I have told all my best friends that I love them- even the guys- they get used to it.
I don't think I'll ever get married,
because I can't stand to think of one person I'd want to take with me to every party.
I sound like Drew Barrymore.

xoxo.

Freedom

2011-01-10T01:18:00.000-07:00

Here is an update:

I have one week of absolute freedom.

Untill I start school next week.

I'm taking 19 credit hours.

I'm actually weirdly excited to get back.

During the remainder of my freedom I plan to:

snowboard

cabin-it-up

sew something

eat

sleep

workout

watch more than 4 movies a day (check)

see country strong with Leighton Meester

go swimming - in the frigidity

do my hair in a new way

get rid of this nasty ~~hickey~~burn on my neck

hang out with someone new

buy a backpack (yes - like i'm 5 years old)

maybe go to utah???

cry - a lot

play ddr

go to bed early - once

rock out on the piano

Oh I know,

how on EARTH will I find the time?

Sleeping can be removed from the list I suppose...

Eating? That's definitely there to stay.

Ever since Friday I've been eating my weight at every meal.

I'm slightly embarassed to admit...

Have a fantastic week.

Send a little love my way.

I'm secretly SLIGHTLY depressed.

For undisclosed reasons.

xoxo.

PS I know these pictures make no sense.

That's just how I roll.

That time

2011-01-05T19:51:00.000-07:00

Today I went to the adviser to see if I could get my associates by the end of summer.

Two and a half to THREE HOUR WAIT?

Umm I'll just leave now.

And risk it.

Ya. I live life on the edge.

xoxo.

Blah.Blah.Blah.

2011-01-04T04:31:00.000-07:00

Do you ever have those nights where you can’t sleep?

2, 2:30, 3, 3:11… 3:14……. 3:16……….

The clock reads 4 a.m. and you finally give up?

In high school I was a straight insomniac.

My mom always said it was my “overactive mind.”

One time she suggested I write down everything in my head to empty it.

It’s been a couple of years since I’ve had a night like this.

But when I do, I always pull out my laptop (because technology is my best friend).

I write down anything and everything that comes to my mind.

I have random documents saved in the middle of the night—

Filled with fictional stories and crying remorse.

Filled with lyrics to songs and fragmented thoughts.

I wait a couple of months to delete what I wrote, because no one cares but me anyway.

But tonight I can’t seem to even form fragments.

It’s maddening really, I’ve written twenty drafts, left with nothing more worthy than the blank space.

I want to slap down one philosophical quote and explain away what I’m feeling.

I want to steal another’s aha moment, wrestle my words into their shadow, and call the riddle solved.

But tonight others words taste like salt mixed with sugar.

I hate emo writers. Those people who write random crap about how no one knows how they feel.

But I’ve come to find “hate” is merely a reflection of my dynamic attitude, nothing permanent.

Yesterday, what I loved is today, what I hate the most and tomorrow, what will cause indifference.

But I think you know how I feel.

That feeling of stirring, of a call to something greater, something unexplainable and weighted.

Tonight I feel that, and as soon as I can explain it, I’ll let you know.

xoxo.

Sunday.

2011-01-02T17:15:00.000-07:00

Sunday.
I love Sundays and hate them.
I know, that's uuber sacreligious of me to say.
But Sunday is a special day...
where everyone is unproductive and it's okay.

So I like to be productive on Sunday.
You know, since it's a special day,
and I'm not on any other day.

Today I cleaned my sheets,
my momma and I are going to attack my brother's mess of a room.
I have enclosed a note to my brother:

Dear Andrew,
I know you are married and all now. YAY.
But maybe you should move out of OUR house now.
Since we aren't sure what clothes you have been wearing for the past 2 weeks...
Love,
Your favorite sister,
Haley.
PS I am hilar. And you miss me.

Anyway, I'm also working on huminals.
Finaaaaaallly.
Everyone has been bug-spicing all upons me.

Happy Sunday.
xoxo.

New Years "Revolution"

2010-12-27T20:24:00.003-07:00

So you know when people say

"11:11 Make a wish!"

And everyone makes a wish?

Ya.

I never make a wish.

Ever.

I never have.

I'll even be the one to announce it sometimes.

It makes me laugh, that I can say something and not even think about it.

Well it's the same with New Years Resolutions.

Sorry.

New Years "Revolutions"

I'm obsessed with calling them that and it'll probably stick.

So you should just give in now.

Anyway.

It's coming up.

Fast.

Like whoaaaa.

And instead of taking a look back at 2010-

Let me take you back to January 1st (at midnight) 2010
and we'll see how things have changed.

I was at a party at Caleb Barton's.
(He's on his mission now.)

I saw exactly two couples kiss at midnight.

(One of the boys is on his mission.

One of the girls is married.

The other boy is single.

The other girl is engaged.)

One of my best friends was waiting on her boyfriend to propose.
(They are married now and the cutest pair.)

One of my best friends was waiting on her first kiss with her new boyfriend.
(He chickened out. They broke up two months later. He was sad. Oh well.)

We took pictures of my first PRETEND kiss.
(Little did I know I would perfect this over the year.)

One of my best friends and I danced to "Imma Be" (Before it was popular) as our first song of 2010.
(Little did we know it was going to be popular- and get hecka annoying.)

We stayed out til 5.
(I wasn't used to doing that then.)

I made the new years revolution to allow people to hug me.
(Ha. I bet a lot of people wish I would take this one back.)

So much has changed in a year.
But at the same time everything feels just one steps difference.

A lot of my friends have said-
"This year. I'll get married."

So here I'll say-
"This year. I'll go on one date. With one person I actually like.
This year. I'll try to get my heart broken.
This year. I'll let someone kiss me.
This year. I'll turn 20"

There. I'm not sure if more than one of those goals is attainable,
but I guess I have the year to figure it out.

xoxo.

"Still Fighting It"

2010-12-26T11:02:00.000-07:00

Who watches the Sing-Off?

Jamie and I watched the second season the past couple of weeks.

And we decided we should start an a capella group.

(Of course this is a joke- because hello I can't sing)

But we started added people to our band

(which is named "There is a Gato Under My Car" Copyright: us. forever.)

And it secretly keeps me going 24 hours out of every day.

It'll get quite and suddenly I'll think of Joe Arnett singing second soprano.

Or Justin Petersen singing the "chicks" - not the booms.

And Danielle Howard singing riffs.

And Annie Fletcher singing Christmas music.

And Jamie singing... okay that's not funny at all... she is getting kicked out.

And Jon Blomquist designing our outfits.

And Angelee Howard doing our hair.

And Peter Jennings with tape over his mouth. (He's just there for his pretty face)

Or that one guy we told he could be our body guard.

And me beat boxing.

Haha.

It'll get quiet and I'll just burst out laughing.

Tell me that this image didn't do that to you?

Also. Think of Adrian Gilyeat.

Sitting on the side.

Realizing the sole purpose of the band is that he can't be in it.

HAHAHA.

Oh dear.

And I was going to talk about how I secretly want to be Ben Folds 5th wife.

Yep. He'll divorce his 4th eventually.

And when he does- I'll be here waiting.

I know I know.

He has a straight up mullet.

And looks like the turtle boy from master of disguise.

But I have an epic secret crush on him when he is judging the sing off.

And now I've switched my 24/7 Taytay (Taylor Swift) Pandora to Ben Folds.

Don't fight it.

xoxo.

Presents to myself

2010-12-25T21:27:00.000-07:00

Sometimes I tell people my family doesn't celebrate Christmas.

Or any holiday.

That may be a bold-faced lie...

or it may not be.

We always go out of town for Christmas.

This year by some bazaar unfortunate events-

we are home.

All of us.

The parents were supposed to be in the Med. all break.

But due to European airport retardandonessss they couldn't get there.

For their cruise.

Which they still have to pay for.

Wow. Icebox of anger.

And Andrew and Ali got home yesterday.

So for the first time since I was a littlin-

I went Christmas present shopping.

For fun.

I ended up buying myself... uh... a couple of presents.

But I got some awesome things for the family.

Gifts that give back. You know?

I believe presents to others should benefit you.

Since it is YOUR present to them.

Alright I sound selfish.

But it's actually legit.

Like I got "the kids" (Andrew and Ali) smells.

So they smell pleasing to me.

And I will be happy to see them.

See? Gift that gives back.

I got my Daddy a subscription to a crossword puzzle magazine.

This sounds like a lame present.

But he is so hard to shop for,

and now he will lay of Mafia Wars on Facebook

aaaand I won't get as much crap for my Dad doing nothing all day.

It will be a secret that he just does crosswords all day errr day.

HAHAHA.

Sorry Dad. I just outed you.

Merrrrry Christmas!

And I got my mother a digital kitchen scale.

This gives back because

then she no longer has to come up with

NONcreative

ways to hint to the family that she wants one.

And can spend that time doing puzzles with Dad,

so I can hear the "she is AWFUL at picking out edge pieces" speech.

It's my favorite.

Have a fabulous Christmas.

And remember for next year-

the best gifts are the ones that give back.

Hahaha.

xoxo.

Lesson Learned

2010-12-24T22:42:00.000-07:00

Oh hey there.

So this is a pretty legit secret-

but my brother got married last week.

Hilar. It hadn't rained like all year.

Then like the day before

it got HECKA cold.

And then it rained.

And we all looked obnoc and wet and rat-like.

But they got married.

And that's all that matters.

Whoaa.

Tangent.

Okay so they went on a cruise to the Carrib. for their honeymoon.

Yesterday morning they called me to say they were in Florida-

off the ship safe.

(Actually I'm not sure why they called...)

The conversation went a little something like this:

Me: Hello?

Andrew: Were you asleep?

Ali: It's 9:30!

Andrew: Told you!

Me: Mmmhaaahhh...

Andrew: blahblahblah

Me: Something about an icebox of anger

Them: Straight laughter

Moral? Don't call me before 10 in the morning

and expect me to be

1.Awake

2.Audible

3.Likable

4.NOT hilarious

So at 10:30 I called them back and asked what happened.

Hilar.

xoxo

Jamie and Haley; A History

2010-12-23T12:06:00.000-07:00

Jamie and I met sometime in Junior High.

We were in the same stake and she had my Grammy as a math teacher at Kino.

She remembers me as "the loud annoying girl"

and I remember her as "that girl with skyscraper sized poof" (negative comment)

But none of this mattered sophomore year when we REmet in orchestra.

We both didn't know anyone- and I like to say-

we became friends out of NECESSITY.

It wasn't til junior year though that we became BESTIES.

We both had best friends who liked the same guy.

We went over to his house once. All together. Weird I know.

Just us 4 and him.

Our friends were being lamespice and Jam got so ticked she started to walk home.

IN the RAIN.

(Because as a side note many of you know she didn't get her license til college)

So I left them and picked her up like a cheap you-know-what.

HA- just kidding.

But that day we switched best friends.

It was literally like we were do-si-do-ing and just switched partners.

We eventually made up and are still friends with our old besties,

but that night just formed this bond between us that 4 years later

still ROCKS.

We've both had drama,

we've both had boys,

we've both had other best friends,

but for some reason we just can't shake each other.

HAHA.

So in honor of us- here are some things you should know...

This is actually not my sweater, we have a matching wardrobe... uhhh whaaa?

Ohhh. And it isn't limited to this sweater...

We like to dress up.

We love photo shoots.

We don't care what people think of us. WE think we are hilarious.

We are sisters. And we love our friends.

We send pictures of ourselves (rain or shine) every morning and before every date

We have this weird belief that everyone looks like an animal.

And we always find out which one that is.

We go on vacays together- because it's our job.

We never have the same taste in guys.
EVER.
Thank goodness.
Jamie dates,
I best friend.

One day we'll marry sexy brothers... haha.

Wow. This history is like a freaking novel.

Love us through it.

xoxo.

Ya ya.

2010-12-13T19:44:00.000-07:00

Two more finals to go.

I'm happy to report:

I HAVE NOT DIED YET.

Although I will need a lengthy vacay starting Friday.

(The day after my brother's wedding)

All my regular shows are on hiatus.

I just don't see what's here to keep me.

Christmas you say?

This is the first year I'll be home for Christmas ohhh since...

I was 10?

Exhibits A & B:

I'm the Grinch of all holidays.

I like to make my own

and

NATURALLY

they are all about me.

Jamie wants a snow day.

I want a cabin trip.

Or a coma.

HA. Just kidding.

But really. I need to get awayyyy. FAR AWAY.

What do you think?

Payson will suffice.

xoxo.

Say whaaa?

2010-12-12T17:35:00.000-07:00

I hate finals.

Epic stress out.

I just want to be this little girl again.

Minus the epicly chapped lips.

xoxo.

Just Avoiding My Homework. NBD.

2010-12-08T19:20:00.000-07:00

So I have a crap-ton of homework that I've been putting off all week

in favor of partying. OF COURSE. Haha.

I promised myself I would do it tonight.

The only way I could get myself to turn on my computer...

was if I got to blog first.

HA!

So here I am.

Putting of homework again.

Watching a documentary on the KKK

which

is super disturbing.

There are straight up babies- BEING HELD- wearing the outfits.

I'm obsessed with history.

It's kind of ridic.

I guess I better do my homework now...

now...

NOW...

Okay NOW.

xoxo

It's My Life

2010-12-04T18:37:00.000-07:00

Oh hey there.

We love us some Frank Sinatra.

Like.

Literally.

And we love our cookie pies.

Yummmmm.

PS. I know I'm hot.

Oh and happy birthday Natalie.

We are awesome and surprised you for your birthday.

No worries Chloe- your sister just loves me that's all.

Last night I went to a bonfire.

Then went to the "Backyard"

It's a legit mexican restaraunt.

In someone's backyard.

Super secret.

Super delish.

And just a side note.

Temple lights ROCK/are faaaareeeezing.

That's my life.

PS- Have you seen "Pushing Daisies" the television show?

I.Love.It.

Netflix has it.

Danielle and I are already addicted.

xoxo.

Eventual Happiness

2010-12-03T14:58:00.000-07:00

My life has been particularly DRAMA-full lately.

I like to think of it as- my life is enduring rebellion.

Or a revolution if you will...

Dear self.

Please stop singing "Revolution" and dreaming of Beatles rockband.

Right.

Now.

Haha. Anyway,

It's weird because sometimes I get so complacent.

And I know change is coming.

And I know change is requisite.

But when it's all said and done- I feel like I'm so improved.

And my improvement is for the better-ment of all.

So drama for me = eventual happiness for all.

That's all I'm saying... NBD.

Speaking of eventual happiness...

Take a picture and pretend to be me.

Oh wait. We already did that. Whaaaaaa??

Hahaha.

xoxo.

Love/Hate Relationship

2010-11-30T11:36:00.000-07:00

Finals are dangerously close.

It's a love/hate relationship.

Love: School ends.

Hate: I have to study before it does.

Lucky for me- I have to take all my finals early.

Because my brother is getting MARRIED on the 16th.

I'll miss his random breakfasts.

He kind of rocks.

He loves to do things for me when I am lazy.

Ali is super lucky.

Like this morning:

PS- See the paper?

Derek Anderson kills me.

Stop making the Cards look bad.

I. Blame. You.

Anyway. I'm going to avoid my love hate relationship-

and watch Bruce Almighty for a while.

xoxo.

The Thanksgiving Grinch

2010-11-25T19:23:00.000-07:00

So I guess you would have found out this about me...

but I hate Thanksgiving food.

Ya. I know.

I'm the Grinch.

I do-

however-

LOVE rolls.

I always walk through the long line of food,

and pretend like I'm going to get something else,

then I get to the rolls.

And start with 4 and a slab of butter.

One year I ate 27.

Are you super impressed?

Hahaha.

Now that I've let you in on that little secret...

Things I am thankful for... I guess...

-My best friends whom I love.

-The weird desire to clean my entire house today.

-My Parents. Who I forced my cleaning binge on.

-Utah friends. Who come home and veeeseeet me.

-Breaks from college. Holla.

-My "Where did the rum go" face. Classic.

-Cards. I love playing cards. Mmmmm.

-Rap music. I have regular dance parties throughout the day.

And a lot of other things.

But I don't want to give you TOO much insight.

Anyway. Have a fantastic weekend.

And this picture is hecka old/awesome.

This sounds like I'm an idiot.

2010-11-21T17:07:00.000-07:00

There has been so much happening in my mind lately.

It's like everything going on around me just isn't real.

Not in a particularly good or bad way.

Just unreal.

It's funny though cause with so much going on in my head-

there are times when there is nothing.

Blank space.

I catch myself with air blowing through my ears.

It's weird.

I told my Dad about it and he said that's a good thing.

"Legit down-time."

It just makes me feel super unproductive.

I bet Reagan never had a lack of thoughts.

Anyway.

This is a tota-ug picture.

But it makes me laugh so hard.

Maybe because we were crying.

It breaks up the "dead space".

Hahahahahahaha.

Sharing the Love

2010-11-17T15:42:00.001-07:00

Things I probably could have lived without:

-Accidentally eating a moldy bagel.

-Going to bed at 10. AGAIN.

-DVRing "Balto". Going to watch it. No hablo espanol.

-Putting my foot in my mouth. I'm pretty flexable verbally.

-Those people. In the library. Sucking face. Loudly.

Things I could live with more of:

-Running a mile. Pathetic that I was so proud of that. 2 DAYS IN A ROW!

-Texas Roadhouse for dindin. Mmmm.

Ned's wif my awesome cousin Ashley.

-Surprise messages in my inbox on Fbook. I.love.random.love.

-Things to look forward too. Next week everyone comes home to meee. Love it.

-Shopping. I went shopping every day last week. Brilliant.

-Speaking of brilliant. My history professor called me that today.

I started making a list in my head last night.

Of all the random dumb/nasty things I had done that day.

So I thought I'd better make a happy list too.

You know. To share the love.

xoxo

Sick Post

2010-11-14T13:45:00.000-07:00

So I've been in bed for 2 days straight.

But enough of that.

I'd rather not talk about it.

I'd rather talk about how fun it is to go through the car wash.

With the windows up. (Jaronnnn.) Haha.

It's almost equivalent to making a fawt.

(Fort for those of you who don't yet speak Haley)

Or laying in your cousins bed gossiping after seeing old friends at a reception.

I needed a chill Friday and SICK weekend to prep for this week and the next.

A lot of fun things areeeeee-ah-stirring!

xoxo

Feeling Nestalgic....spice. Oh heck why not throw that in.

2010-11-12T14:54:00.000-07:00

Two of my best friends are getting married today.

To each other.

Ohhh.emmm.geee.

I'm super stoked for them!

It just makes me think about this weird transition phase called being 19.

It's when your decisions become YOURS and not your PARENTS.

It's when you have friends still in high school...

and friends graduated from college...

and friends married...

and friends with kids...

It makes me think.

So much in my life can change so fast.

Its unpredictable.

Have you heard the song

"You're Gonna Miss This" by Trace Adkins?

Yes. It's Country.

I know I know. I don't like Country music either.

But about once every couple of years,

my Daddy falls in love with a random country song and makes everyone privy to it's awesomeness.

Anyway, I see both sides of the arguement right now.

xoxo.

Bummer Undone

2010-11-08T14:26:00.000-07:00

Bummer undone.

The weekend lifted my spirits

and here I am again.

my happy frolickkkspice self.

HA!

Oh haiii there Monday!

Good day to you.

Guess what made my entire life?

I got home from school.

(Already a reason to celebrate)

and the doorbell rang.

Mysterious.

It's the middle of the day oh WHO could be calling?

It was less of a who and more of a what.

UPS.

Ahhh. A package?

My momma orders books like she wants to own a library.

So I thought nothing of it.

Untillllll....

Whaaa?

EEES FOR MIII?

It is sad and pathetic that a straightener I ordered weeks ago can elate me through the roof.

But if this is what my life has come to.... so be it. : D

GAHHH. New straightener you are so fiiiine!

Oh. And free. I love gifts.

I'm accepting them always.

HAHA!

xoxo

PS - Yes I did just write an entire blog about my new straightener.

PPS - Who is watching the Suns game tonight?

I almost died yesterday when Nash made his freethrows there are the end.

Thankyouthankyouthankyou.

You can share my happiness with the straightener.

I love my life

2010-11-06T22:52:00.000-07:00

So I've been having a kind of crappy time lately.

Like not really. But kinda.

I hate being a bummer.

My not happy is like 500 times happier than most people's sad.

so don't feel sorry for me.

Ha!

Anyway.

I've been so out of it.

Like woahhh.

And all my friends have been super awesome in bending to all my moody plans and such.

I love them.

There. Little shout out. Like always. Haha.

So like I was saying.

Ball of sicknasssst girlyness.

So yesterday i played volly-tennis with a couple oldies.

And by that I mean friends I miss.

That sorta made my life

-SLASH-

made me realize playing games with Dallin's family every night semi qualifies me as lame.

So then today I vowed to be my fun old self.

I went to a family party with the "bama" folks.

AKA - My Grammy is from Alabama and sister's family was in town.

And ROCKED. Love them.

Anyway so I'm playing with my little cousin.

And by that I mean - all of the many cousins.

And twirling them aroundspice.

And then I realized binge-ing at dinner was no bueno.

Enter epic motion sickness.

Never exit.

Okay.

Fatty.

So now of course I end up at Dal's with his family and Jamie.

LOL.

I guess I like it.

Don't try to fix what isn't broken.

Crack myself up.

xoxo.

NOMNOMNOM

2010-11-05T19:03:00.000-07:00

But guess what?

Dalpal's mommaspice is making us french toast.

There is something about doing things at the wrong time that rocks.

Hello.

Desert before dinner.

Eating in the middle of the night.

But really- no lie- this week was a beast.

Anyway.

Okay. So I know this picture is weird.

But it is the only one I have to document Dallin and I's

SIX

HOUR

SHOPPING

TRIP.

I know that doesn't sound enjoyable.

But it totes was.

And that's how I spent my Saturday.

The most enjoyable day before this week began.

The week from tHE dEVIL.

I have mucho school work and mucho sickness.

Thank goodness for Utah.

It'll save my soul right?

PS Jamie rocks. I love when she guest posts.

And by when I mean that once. Hahaha.

guest post!!!!

2010-10-13T20:20:00.000-07:00

So... you should get really happy.
Now.
Be happy.
Why?
Well DUH. Only because this is a guest post from the BFFAEAEAE JAMIE LEIGH PETERPANTS!!!

So once upon a time, there was a girl named Jamie.

She likes ASU.

But it takes over her life.

And she doesn't get to play wif Hawey a lot.

Did you know that we're best fwenns?

More like sisters.

I still like her even though:

She makes me listen to Glen Beck

Her stomach makes weird noises

She makes me gain incredible amounts of cookie dough weight

She exaggerates like 20 million things everyday

I have to take care of her wasp stings

She makes me take out the trash

and she gets me addicted to gossip girl slash vampire diaries.

*swoon*

She likes me too.

But I'll let her tell you why.

The Jamester

I feel a vacay coming on...

2010-10-13T12:48:00.000-07:00

-weDnESdaY-

You upset me.

Not for any reason other than I woke up and felt like crap on toast.

I.hate.feeling.sick.

So I went to school, get home, and find out my brother is sick too.

Squeeeeeeal.

We are so cute.

Okay well since Wednesday has been an epic fail.

(Seeing as I'm sick AND had to go to school.)

I'll recount my Tuesday.

Kay?Kay.

-TuEsDAy-

Hi.

I love you.

Danielle spent the night on Monday.

So we woke up.

And in honor of one of my best friend's birthday,

Who is on his mission so we couldn't play, :(

We slept in.

Then tanning whaaa?!

Holler.

Then work. Aaaacourse.

Oh and the office had these devine donuts.

Let me eat youuuus.

Then I went to my cuzcuz Ashley's house. Love her.

Shopping.

Movies.

Then I went to Dallin's and ate copius amounts of cookie dough&played TETRIS.

Sound like a good day?

It was.

xoxo.

PS I am going to Utah next weekend. Stoked.

I haven't planned anything yet.

I love being orange.

Thoughts.

2010-10-11T12:50:00.000-07:00

Blah-Blah-Blahhhhh.

SometimesItalktomyself.

Did I just say that outloud?

Embaaaarrrrrraaaassssiiinnnggg.

Anyway. I talk.

In.my.head.

Obviously.

And in these little thoughts

It occurs to me.

Hales.

You need to stop being a ball of stress.

That's what my thoughts told me.

Oh they are so wise.

Not that I'm super stressed or anything.

I just never used to get stressed.

But now

homework&college&work&life

make

stressed

Which gives me a cold.

In October.

What have your thoughts been telling you?

Ohhh Saturday!

2010-10-09T18:44:00.000-07:00

So I've been too busy to blog lately.

Which is code for...

"I'm.so.super.cool."

So anyway.

I love Saturdays.

I woke up BUTT early to drive my parents to the airport.

I went back to sleep for 6 hours.

Dallin and I went to the Cox store.

Then got Jamba Juice.

Then ate cheese crisps.

And now he is napping on my floor.

Whilst Jamie tries to hack into my brother's computer.

PS She is single and hot. Text me. I'll hook you up.

BAHA. Just kidding. She would kill me if she knew I wrote that.

Good thing she doesn't read my blog...

That was my Saturday.

If yours was lamer than mine thus far,

which- let's be honest- is likely.

You still have time to salvage it.

Yep. xoxo.

PS I shaved Dallin's face the other day just for funsies.

We are so uncomfortably awesome.

Oh happy.... me?

2010-10-05T19:49:00.000-07:00

I'm a happy person.

I've always said this about myself.

I never realized that there were people who weren't like me.

Sometimes I take for granted that I catch the bug.

Like it's an infectious disease.

So you know how sometimes I pretend to be emo?

Just to know what it's like?

I can't imagine not finding humor in everything.

Like the basement flooding today.

HAHAHA.

xoxo.

PS My brother going on his mission to Argentina changed my life.

He introduced me to the artist Daddy Yankee.... ;P

Haley's Mix Tape

2010-10-04T19:55:00.000-07:00

Obsession:

Fun. - They remind me of Mika. And it's fun!

Kesha. - I know I know. She is trashy.

But listen to the song "blind" then come apologize to me.

I'll be expecting you.

Kthx.

The Summer Set. - Hello I fell in love with you this summer.

Then I moved on.

Then I saw you again and forgot you are the best lover ever.

Sky Sailing. - Okay Adam Young.

It's out.

You are amazing and I'm so happy to have more material.

I <3 Owl City.

Sara Bareilles. - You get better every album.

I didn't know it was possible to be so deeply in love with a singer.

If you aren't in love with all these bands....

then we can't be friends.

Haha. JK. Go fall in love with them.

xoxo.

PS. Danielle and I cut Dallin's hair.

And tweezed his eyebrows.

AND shaved his legs.

He tried to blackmail me into not sharing this information.

But I am no weenie.

Eat that Dalpal. ;P

My Pursuit of Happyness

2010-10-02T14:20:00.000-07:00

I never think too much about what I type here.

It's literally like a literary vomit page.

and by literary I mean-

words.

It makes me infinitely happy.

Other things that make me infinitely happy:

1) I have been extra happy with myself lately.

I have never had low self esteem.

Ever.

But you can always have BETTER self esteem.

Lately I've been on cloud 9.

Yes we are at Red Lobster.

Yes we eat like epic fattys.

2) I have gone running 4 times this week.

And did laps.

Exercise is so addicting.

I'm so sorry I've been neglecting you.

My friends have been supportive of this.

Love.

3) I ordered myself a new straightener.

Yes I wanted a chi.

But This one is PINK!

Aaaand I love all BedHead Products so we'll see how this flies.

4) Watching conference in my underwear.

No picture here... haha.

I'll let you in on an embarrassing secret-

I think conference is boringspice.

Buuuut I found a way to fix this!

I DVR it. Then I watch it talk by talk.

LOUD. So it's like watching episodes.

It works for me.

I love it.

5) Costa Vida, Suit Shopping, Tetris, and Cookie Dough with my BFF- Dalpal.

Yes I am wearing a sweater.

Yes it was over 100 degrees.

Ask me if I care?

I could just burst out singing.

Oh wait.

That just happened.

xoxo.

This is Where I Admit I'm LAMEspice.

2010-10-01T19:36:00.000-07:00

My family was discussing my first kiss today.

Yes. I am a baby and haven't had one.

Yes I reject people.

Yes I realize this makes me LAMEspice.

(PS When I looked for a picture the band "Kiss" came up. HA! Those boys are oh so fashionable.)

Anyway.

I just don't want to regret the first one.

All my friends go on and on about how they would take theirs back.

Or about how they wouldn't- because it was perfectly awful.

So I devised a plan. I'm going to walk up to someone I don't know.

And kiss them.

Like MWAHHH.

Then walk away.

Then I'll record what happened on my voicemail.

HAHA.

Yes. That just happened.

And yes. That will never actually happen.

But it's a great idea right?

No way to regret something like that!

Wow. Spice.

So my Aunt Connie commented on a past post and told me about a drug called "spice."

So I looked it up.

Apparently it is some sort of synthietic maryjane.

And if you don't know what maryjane is...

ask your parents.

or your kids. HA.

Anyway this nast-spice drug is apparently all the rage right now.

And by that I mean all the European Countries have banned it.

But the US? Apparently we like to have good clean fun.

I see a couple problems with this drug.

Like. First of all- SPICE? Really? Failspice.

Who really names a drug after the most awesome suffix in the world?

I can get why they wanted the name.

But seriously?

Umm second it is full of cannabinoids.

What the...

I'm not sure what that even is but it sounds disgusting.

Like it has people in it.

Okay. I'm a bioscience major. So I lied.

It is a maryjane type substance.

But the point ISN'T that I'm a nerdspice.

It is that there is an attack on our awesomeness.

Rant. Over.

xoxo.

PS Million Dollar Baby? You are the worst movie EVARRRR.

Dinner with the Mills:

Tonight:

"Dallin wants to come to dinner."

"Tell him when he kisses you he can come." - Dad.

GAGGGG.

Throw up.

Food spit.

All over.

(No offense Dallin)

"So it's safe to say he is never coming?" -Dad.

"No."

Thanks Dad.

Our dinners are always so eventful.

A Week Ago:

"You will find many pleasures... In bed."

"Ummm... did you just say that in front of your parents?" -Danielle.

"Uh. Ya. Why?"

"Please. Who do you think taught her to do that?" -Dad.

"How do you think she was born? No. Actually. Made." -still Dad.

Al.zheimer...zzzzz.

Everyday I walk through my life and think-

"Hales, (that is what I call myself)...

you should blog about that."

So I make a mental note.

Then my mental notes get lost or ripped or burned or... stolen.

Pretty much.

I forget.

So I get home to blog and suddenly I've spent my fifth night in a row attempting to stop myself from blogging about my latest book, or Moulin Rouge.

You know.

There is something totally weird about me that you should know.

It's a secret so shhhhh.

I love books. And textbooks. And movies. And television. Especially Political anything.

I love people's thoughts.

Like hello- I have no idea what I am thinking til I find someone I hate say the opposite.

Ya. They really just said that? Hate. I disagree.

Then an opinion is born.

Never to die. Ever.

Wow. Rant much? Anyyyyyyway,

the point I was going to try to make is-

I am an obsessor.

I admit it.

Day 1:

I read a book and it's all I can think about.

Let's say "Gone With The Wind."

I compare my life to it.

I compare my thoughts to it.

Heck I subject my friends to hours of how this book has changed my life.

Day 2:

I have no original thoughts on the book, but the story is still swimming around.

Yes. I have a swimming pool in my brain. It puts less strain on my thought joints. Duhhh.

But wait. Tonight. Let's watch a movie... say "Curious Case Of Benjamin Button."

(PS watched that last night. To. Die. For.)

Day 3:

The fight.

Man I loved that movie.

What was the name of that place... where they lived.... in that book....

man.... I know I just barely read that.

Ya. So what I'm saying is.

I obsess.

Then I regress.

Then I....

I think I have alzheimer's.

What are the symptoms for that again?

I know I read it somewhere....

Stealing. It's bad. Really.

I spent the night at Annie Fletcher's this weeked.

It made me think.

About HighSchool.

And about how I steal attributes from people.

No. Legit.

I am a little bit of all my best friends, both past and present.

My laugh: I got that from Kasi Burk and it later mixed with Chloe Nielsen

My hate: I got that from Emma Anderson. The way in which I hate people- all credit to her.

Saying "girl": I got that from Jennifer Passey. I also got the slow motion scream from her... HAHA.

My hand gestures: I got these from Jamie Petersen. She always does them. All prim and proper.

My high pitched excited talk: I got that from Mindy Peterson. I don't think I'll ever shake the Mindy in me.

My awkward....ness: I got this from Annie herself. Hard to explain, but if you know us you get it.

My huggy-ness: Chloe again here. She made me love to hug. Hughughug.

My slang: And by MINE I mean Kristen Pear's. She gave me my cool. I'll admit.

Pretty much this list could extend forever.

But I think I've made it clear.

I own nothing of who I am.

It's fantastic.

Wanna know why?

It means if I don't like something?

It can change.

Hope you had a fabulous weekend.

xoxo.

Ya. This is my life.

A day in the life of Haley:

YESSSSS! What? They have the book I want in large print at the library! um... I shouldn't love it as much as I do! I can read it freaking across the room! Oh Dad.... Hahaha.

Hi. I just got to work. Whaaaaa? We are closing the office at 3 today? Randomly? I do love surprises.

Wait. My 9 o'clock class is cancelled? What should I do? I-HOP with the married bestie? Okay.

Love her. Nbd.

I love good days.

I love good weeks.

I love good months.

Okay.

Let's be honest.

My life rocks.

How is your life?

Happy Thursday

2010-09-23T18:49:00.000-07:00

Today?

I made orange chicken.

And by I- I mean we.

Dallin and I.

We impressed ourselves a little bit.

Okay a lot.

It looked a little something like that.

Then Danielle came over and ate.

And was also impressed.

So I guess what I am saying is...

We are legit.

Then we watched the Prestige.

(One of my favorite movies.)

Then Danielle and I went to watch the boys play volleyball.

Oh wait.

That hasn't happened yet.

But it will.

Happy Thursday.

ABC's Part Uno.

Okay I have a whole lot of random running through my head.

So if you can't keep up.

Consider me superior.

Kay??

Hahaha.

Let me alphabetize my thoughts.

A] My brother is getting married in.... soon.

Andrew Andrew Andrew... what SHALL I do without you?

Who is going to tell me if my outfit looks dumb. Oh wait... that's Dad.

I meant who is going to zip up my dresses and let me borrow their belts?

You? Okay. I'm coming over.

Just kidding.

I guess I'll have to get married.

Not.

B] So remember when I talked about how legit BYU's Harold B. Lee Library is?

(Are you not impressed by this picture? It's underground. nbd.)

Anyway. So it got me thinking.

(As I sit in MCC's library.)

What the heck kind of NOT legit library do we have?

First of all.

It is named the Paul A. Elsner Library.

Say that outloud.

I don't think they thought this through.

Second offff.

Who the heck is Paul A. Elsner?

Okay I looked him up.

NOT a Prophet of God.

Obviously.

And guess what tops the cake here people?

When I went to search for some ugly illegitimate step child picture of the library...

guess what?

I got nasty pictures of nasty grown up things!

I promise I searched it right too.

Oh wow. library tangent?

I am soooo geek.

C] Have you ever counted calories?

No I don't mean like- "hey look. I'm eating 2,000 calories of cheesecake."

mmmm.... Cheesecake Factory....

Anyway, I mean- "I can only eat 1500 a day."

Ya. My Mom and I decided we were being fattyspice.

Diet time? We think so.

Counting calories? Nooooo fun.

I've never been on a diet.

I don't know how to even count calories unless the label says:

1 serving = 100 calories. 1 serving in package.

So guess what?

We get to dinner and I say alright, I have 1200 calories left.

Whaaaaa?!

Ya. I don't know how to count them.

It is annoying.

So I'd rather not deal with it at all.

I lost 2 pounds the first day.

HA!
