Tumblr

So I finally just broke down and got a tumblr. Don't worry! This is my main blog and I'm not leaving it, the tumblr is just going to replace my "random thing I found on the internet" posts (otherwise known as "internet finds")

Click here to go to my tumblr!

Yeah, it's been a while since I posted. Life is catching up with me... and it's difficult to post relevant blogs every day. That is why tumblr is going to be my savior.

Anyway, have a good rest of the day~

Mini Blog: Still Alive!

Do not worry! I'm alive!
Lately I've just been preparing for Anime Detour and getting all of my homework done in advance and whatnot. I'll be super busy this month, so... I'm not promising daily updates like I have done in the past few weeks.

Yeah, 'kay see ya!

Mini Blog: New Year, New Blog

It's a new year and I'll be blogging as much as I possibly can! January is going to be a hectic month for school, so posting is going to be delayed even more most likely, but I thought I would update once for the new year :D

If you want to help me out, I need viewers to vote for me in this scholarship competition: Brickfish Social Media: Eyes

Mini Blog: Happy Holidays and Happy New Year!

I haven't been online a ton lately, but I'll get back to posting as soon as I am able. I've still got camp journal stuff to post and all of that, but I've also got a ton of other stuff on my plate so I'll get to it when I get to it xD

TTYL,

Birthday!

My birthday is ten days from now! Woot woot.
the theater of Haley's mind: (that phrase blatantly stolen from OHSHC)

Reader: "Haley, what do you want for your birthday?"
Response: "Who are you and how do you know my birthday is coming up?"
Reader: "I read your blog!"
Response: "So, you're the one person who isn't someone I know. In that case... I want money."

END SCENE

Yes. That's what I've been telling everyone. (Including strangers, apparently.) I need money for my Latin trip to Italy and Greece next year... so I've been begging for cash from everyone I know. Well, except my friends, since I know they're broke, too. I ask for cake from them. After all, the 24th is international give Haley cake day!

I'm excited for my birthday, though, because my physics class is going to valley fair! And I'm bringing a slinky! (That's an inside joke with somebody I met on Deviantart!)

Mini Blog: New Year!

I just realized I haven't posted anything here since last year! Wow!
I don't really have anything to say, so... I guess I'll just end with: Have a great 2010!

Cold Day Tomorrow?

I remember in middle school when we used to call our snow days "cold days" because we were afraid that we would jinx our luck (or perhaps the snow "gods," whom we danced to) by calling them "snow days". For whatever reason this didn't carry into high school, though. Maybe it was all of those icy car crashes (like the one I witnessed walking home today) or perhaps it was slipping in the slush (which I have done in years past and will probably do again this year) but for whatever reason we have lost this "cold day" idea. That's not to say that we don't get mad at our teachers for jinxing us by not acting like we're going to still have school the next day nor do we no longer get excited when we watch the 10 o'clock news- or perhaps go to sleep and let our parents tell us in the morning- and find out THERE'S NO SCHOOL! However, it seems to me that we've lost the innocence of it by the time we reach high school. We just want to get out of school so we don't have to do the work- not because we're genuinely happy about the snow. This loss of innocence is even affecting the middle-schoolers now. The elementary kids are our only hope for this genuine excited-ness.

One thing we did carry over, though, is this idea of rituals. Like wearing your PJ's inside out or putting a fork and a spoon under your pillow- like that was supposed to do some good? I would really do that in middle school but end up sleeping on the floor for fear of getting a fork shoved into my head. Many people even slept the wrong way on their beds. To which I said, "so you get a fork in your foot instead of your head, seems reasonable" not even seeing the illogical-ness of it all. I never would have imagined that somebody in a small office in the center of town would be the deciding factor in whether or not school was canceled. I guess that's the magic of the season for you- instead of using our time "wisely" we use our time to make up silly snow dances and other rituals in order to not have school the next day (or perhaps the next week...) and to appease these made-up snow people.

Well, I'm going to drink some hot tea and get some math or Latin homework done. Here's hoping that we (and I'm not trying to jinx it here) have a "cold day" tomorrow and that I don't have to do my human geography homework because I'm too lazy to do it now.

Mini Blog: Summer's almost over? NO!

Tomorrow is the last day of summer, which means less blogs for everyone. I have issues making blogs on time because I feel that school deadlines are more important than blog deadlines. Plus I'm a slacker... that has a lot to do with it, lol.

Hopefully I will post at a later date,

NACHOS!

I got back from vacation in the dells yesterday. It was amazing and I can't wait to go back! We go every few years (the last time I went I was 7 yrs old, lol.) BB and I had the greatest time even though we got a little injured from the really short flooring on one of the lazy rivers. That was probably our fault for standing in the inner tubes instead of sitting, though.

Anyway, by now you may be wondering why this blog is called "NACHOS!" Well, I'll tell you. Today I'm going to the Steel County (Owatonna) fair. They have the BEST nachos of all time. This Mexican restaurant known as Grace's has these nachos called "cindy nachos" and they are probably my favorite food. The nachos have their own booth at the fair because the line gets so long. I only get them once or twice a year, though. I get them once at the fair (when we visit my grandparents that live in Owatonna) and then maybe another time if we decide to go out to dinner there with my family. I decided this year to take a picture of the nachos to show how amazing they are.

Now that I'm done with my obsessive rant, I will stop posting and talk to everyone later. Bye!

Mini Blog: New Books!

I finally got some new books that I've read on the Book Blog! Now I've just got to finish my vlog I was going to do a few days ago and read some books for school and then my to-do list will be finished! Hoorah!

I'd better get started.
~Haley

Mini Blog: Vlog... I Told You it Wasn't Going to Happen.

The vlog will happen eventually... just not now.

I don't have much other stuff to say, so I'm just going to say TTYL.
~Haley

Mini Blog: The Fair!

I'm going to the county fair for dinner! I NEED junk food! After a week at church camp it feels like I haven't had any greasy stuff in, like, forever! Cheese curds and mini doughnuts here I come!

~Haley

Mini Blog: Church Camp

Right now I'm packing for church camp. I should probably have started this earlier. I leave at 11 or so tomorrow and I will be at camp around 3.
There is no technology allowed at camp so I will not be able to blog. I will post lots of pictures and information when I get back, though.

Those books are not going to be talked about on the book blog before camp. I'm really sorry. I'm a procrastinator and I'm busy packing, so I apologize!

O.k, back to work.
~Haley

Mini Blog: Harry Potter!!!!!

The movie was amazing! I don't want to spoil anything for those who haven't seen it so I won't type much more for fear of spilling something accidentally, but it was really awesome!

No spoilers here!
~Haley

Mini Blog: Doin' Stuff...

I'm totally doing stuff this week! Last week (except Friday when I went to Cassi's) I had stayed in my house. I never left for 4 days. I felt like a hermit ^^'
I'm busy busy busy.
Tomorrow I'm going to the twins game for a while.
Monday the carpet cleaner is coming so I need to get up early and go downstairs before I can do anything.
Tuesday BB is coming over and then we're going to Harry Potter at midnight with Rae and Bethy, Cassi and Nicki are prolly meeting us there, and Kay and Terra are going to the same theater so we'll prolly see them, too.
Wednesday we may just sleep for a while since we'll be up pretty late on tuesday.

I'm going to ask if I can go to starbucks for coffee on tuesday... or maybe they have it at the theater...?
I've gotta figure this out, TTYL!

New Vlog for my 150th post!

New vlog is coming soon. Was supposed to happen today, but the microphone on my laptop failed.

In other news: It's my 150th post!!! Celebration time! *dances around with streamers and balloons flying everywhere*

That's really all for now,
Ciao!
~Haley

Mini Blog: 4th of July!

I really don't know what I'm doing. I just wanted to say happy 4th of July to everyone because I probably won't be posting tomorrow! HAPPY 4TH!

Mini Blog: Book Club and Special-ness.

I really should be reading for my book club, but I wanted everyone to know it's my 148th post today! Yay! (I'm still in shock about the whole I've been writing this for an entire year thing.)

I'm trying to think of something special for my 200th post, but I haven't come up with anything yet. If you have any ideas feel free to comment on my post about them.

I've got reading to do, TTYL!
~Haley

Mini Blog: Book Club

I really need to read these two books for this book club I've joined, but I'm being really lazy. Part of that could be that it's summer and another part could be that I woke up at 10:00 today, but I don't know.

In other Haley news, I hung out with my friends Bethy, Mikey, and Michael today. That was awesome. We played apples to apples and went online for a while. It was great! Unfortunately I didn't get to watch the anime movie princess mononoke or the movie monty python and the holy grail while I was there, but still a very good visit.

That's really all that I've been up to, lately. I guess I'll talk more tomorrow... maybe.
