January 2011
I finally go to my neighbor’s house for New Years Eve, and I get stuck babysitting. Yeah, I don’t think so.

holy shit, i am so fucking lame.
I did not even realize how lame a teenager I am until just now. Let’s review the evidence:
When my best friend whom I have not seen in forever came over, we played Nancy Drew.
I currently have a Neopets tab open and was legit looking for a guild to join.
I got Toy Story bedding for Christmas and was excited.
I just considered getting offline to play Animal Crossing.
I’m seventeen...
This has been like the most relaxing break ever.
Too bad it’s all going downhill from January 3rd until May…let’s have a look at what I have to do just next month:
TOK presentation preparation with JW and CS
My EE…kind of important, right?
Read + prepare for Scholarship Weekend at Oglethorpe (including learning two Shakespearean monologues)
I think we do our second Bio...

my new favorite insults
From The Office (and SNL): “Dwight, you ignorant slut!” From Easy A: “Perhaps you should get a wardrobe, you abominable twat.” From I Love You, Man: “It was the taste of betrayal, you fucking whore.”

How I Met Your Mother is cool and all, but I think Dr. Horrible has officially turned me into an NPH fangirl.

day 14 - your thoughts on drugs and alcohol
I have very strong opinions on drugs and alcohol, but probably not the same ones that most people who have strong convictions on the subject have. Obviously the harmful illegal drugs should definitely be illegal, and nobody should do them. But with marijuana and alcohol, I think the key is being responsible.
For example, one time we were walking out of Ihop and there was this car full of people...

day 13 - discuss your first kiss
Uh, pretty damn horrible. That entire “date” was bad, actually. I showed up to his house, and I made him watch Sweeney Todd because it’s one of my favorite movies, and he was so awkward about everything. We were watching it in his room, right, so we were sitting on the bed facing the TV. When he sat down, at first he was a good three inches away from me. Then he got up to get...

Tacoma, Washington. Well, sort of. It’s close enough.

day 11 - your biggest fear
I’m not really sure what my biggest fear is, to be honest. I guess it would be that I’ll live a boring life; that I’ll be a carbon copy of every other person and I’ll die without having done anything significant. There was a quote in the new Nancy Drew game that I was playing last night (shut up) that said something along the lines of: “Forgetting is a dangerous...

day 10 - a picture of your favorite relative
I don’t put pictures up, dude. And anyways, I don’t have access to a picture of the person who’s my favorite relative, so yeah.

day 9 - your favorite blog
Friendly Atheist
That blog has helped me so damn much, it’s not even funny. It helped me when I was facing the depression dilemma with AC, it helped me realize that I’m not the only one facing adversity just because I don’t happen to share one relatively insignificant belief with the rest of society, and it helps me rationalize my feelings and opinions on different religious and...

day 8 - ten things you’d like to say to ten...
01. I really wish I could tell you that I did not, in fact, change my mind about doing a presentation with you because I was trying to get back at TC for something that happened four fucking years ago, but because I try to minimize the time I spend with you. I certainly don’t go out of my way to spend time with someone who abandoned and ignored me after failing to convert me when I told her...
Hey Fox News, why exactly is it so bad that Congress members of one party are actually agreeing with members of another party? Are you expecting anything to get done while people butt heads and refuse to see another point of view?

Holy shit, it’s like she’s picking us off one by one or something. She’s trying to convince each and every one of us to go to her damn church—even people like JW who are happy at their own churches! I can’t fucking believe her.

day 7- talk about your idol and how they...
I really don’t have an idol, to be honest…I mean, there are people I admire, of course, but there isn’t anyone who I strive to be like them. I don’t want to be a carbon copy of someone else.
That was probably the most amazing thing I’ve seen in my life. Awe-inspiring. The eclipse AND the meteor shower? Holy cow. Why on earth do people insist on ruining such an incredible event with “reasons?” I don’t care if there’s a reason it’s there or not. You don’t need to know why it’s there to appreciate the sheer beauty of the thing. It just is....

I mean, it’s no pirate battle, but this Skip-Bo game I’m playing on my cell phone sure as hell seems like good and bad is hanging in the balance now.
I HAVE to stay up to see the lunar eclipse. It had better not be cloudy. It was last time something like this happened, and I was way pissed off, man.

i am so proud of my little sister.
When we were driving back from the mall, we saw some van that said “Do you have G.P.S.? God’s Precious Son, JESUS!” I pointed it out to my mom and we were laughing, and out of nowhere, this conversation happened:
Sister: God made Jesus, right? Mother: Of course he did. Sister: So, who made God? Mother: ….um….
That made my day.

day 6 - your all time favorite movie
For someone like me who changes their favorite color every other day, it is ridiculously difficult to pick a single movie that is my “all time favorite.” I can tell you what my most recent favorite movie is, though: The Invention of Lying.
It was hilarious, it was original and creative, it had Ricky Gervais and Tina Fey in it, and it made my uber-Christian friend (the one who...

the collegiate dilemma
So, here’s how college apps have been going for me. I applied to three schools, all early action. The first of these schools is Tulane University in New Orleans, LA.
It’s one of those “Ivy League of the South” type schools, and I figured the academic challenge would be nice, and it would look better on resumes. Apparently it’s a “work hard, play hard”...

day 5 - discuss your feelings on the word “love”...
I don’t think the word “love” is as “magical” as people seem to think it is. I mean, it’s just a word; anybody can say it, whether they mean it or not. Or they might think they mean it, but they really don’t. People seem to associate it with very strong feelings, but I can say “I love your boots!” and not really feel that strongly about them....

day 4 - your most significant childhood memory
I’m not entirely sure what this means. Do you want a memory from a moment in my childhood that had the biggest impact on my life? If so, I can’t answer that, because every single moment from my past, even the boring minutes just waiting to fall asleep, made me who I am today. And I can’t pick a “favorite” memory either, because how do I pick one moment from the...

day 3 - your thoughts on religon
Hahahaha, this should be good. Let’s see. I think that the concept of religion was invented when humans had very little, if anything, by the way of technological or scientific advances and made them feel like not everything in the world was completely random, out of their control, and malicious. I mean, it must have seemed that way since they didn’t have any knowledge of how the world...

day 2 - your thoughts on death
Well, that’s not vague at all. I’m not sure what direction to take with this question. Overall, the thought of dying scares me, probably more than the average person because I’ve accepted the fact that once you die, you’re just gone. There’s no fancy afterlife (and even if there were, none of us have any clue what it would be like, what [if any] requirements there...

Sorry, but I’m not posting pictures of myself on tumblr, mostly because I don’t want people I know to easily recognize that it’s me if they ever find this, somehow. Haha.

Well, I haven’t exactly had a first love, so I suppose there is no detail for me to provide, great or small.

I got about 1/3 of the way through my EE before I realized my topic sucked epic amounts of…well, things you suck. It was due TODAY. I stayed home to try to work on it more, but you know what? It’s a lost cause. I simply can not write that essay and sound intelligent when I don’t understand all the legal babble that’s necessary for...

Day 01 – Introduce yourself
Hello there, my name is Haley and I’m kind of a mess. But an organized mess. I procrastinate, which is what I’m doing now (I should be writing my extended essay which is due…well, today). I have trouble letting people get close to me. I tend to over-analyze things. I’m a proud member of the grammar police. I’ve been diagnosed with mild OCD, control issues, and...

I hate Facebook drama. It has to be among the stupidest kinds of drama imaginable. We can all see that your status is there just to bait people into arguing with you. I don’t know why you still try, or why people still fall for it. And deleting people just to show how angry you are? Real mature. Ugh.
Thursday night, a senior at my school killed himself. They told us about it in school Friday morning. Throughout the morning, the hallways were almost completely silent between classes. A few guys cried while carrying signs that read, “We love you, thanks for the memories.” People were running in and out of classes to go to the bathroom so people wouldn’t see them cry. Many of...

Dear J.K. Rowling,
HOW COULD YOU LET THEM SCREW UP THE BOOKS. WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU, WOMAN. (However, I’m not sure I really want to kick you in the face, because I don’t know you well enough. And I like your books. My sister just walked by with one of the Harry Potter movie shirts on and I got mad all over again. But. Anyways.) WHYYY!
Love, Haley
