"Everyone is Tad Hamilton to Someone"

Oh boy,

I am so glad that it's finally Wednesday; I have never been so excited about a hump day in all of my 18 years. Why you ask? The only test I had to take this week was completed at 10:30 a.m this morning. I don't have anything else to do today until 6:00 tonight, which I will be going to my last biology lab! Don't worry, though...I haven't been able to actually fall asleep today. I did just finished doing my huge wad of laundry that I have been meaning to do since Saturday. I know, I know...I am awesome. Also, Megan and I watched beautiful Josh Duhamel do this thing in Win a Date with Tad Hamilton. As you can probably tell, it has been an extremely productive day for me...no seriously, I had around 20+ pounds of clothes to wash - that's not easy.

Speaking of my (math) test, do you want to know how I studied for it? Not only did I stay up until 3 a.m (I know, Shelby...don't worry, though. I'll sleep when I am dead, promise), but while I was studying, I played Britney Spears' ...Baby One More Time CD. I have no idea why I've been so obsessed with her lately. On Monday, I literally watched 6 and a half hours of her videos on TV! SIX AND A HALF HOURS! The weird thing is, I only like the old Britney, plus the songs like Toxic and Circus. Other than that, I don't really enjoy her. It must be because I am delusional or something. Secretly, I am listening to "From The Bottom of my Broken Heart" as we speak. ;) ahaha! I really need to consider sleeping or something.

It's hard to believe that today is the last day of November. Where has the time gone? I am definitely not complaining - that means there is only 2-3 weeks left until I see my friends again! I absolutely, positively cannot wait to go back to my hometown and see everyone again. I only spent like 10 hours there when I went home for Thanksgiving...and that is not okay. Don't worry, you guys...I am making an extra special trip home to see all of your beautiful faces and it'll be during the prettiest time of the year! CAN'T WAIT!

This is my favorite tree on the quad! Isn't it a cutie?

Okay! Enough jibber jabber! I have a little treat for you guys. As ya'll know, in October, I went the the Taylor Swift - Speak Now concert in Atlanta, Georgia. As a result, I have a ton of pictures I wanted to share with ya'll. I promise, I won't upload every single one of them...just my favorites. Yeah...this may take a while. I really hope ya'll like them.

This was her first song, Sparks Fly. I am surprised I got pictures - I was so excited!

This was her outfit during Our Song/ Mean. She legit shot up out of the stage at the beginning of Our Song - scared me.

T.I. surprised everyone and sang "Live Your Life" - Taylor rocked Rihanna's part!

This is one of my favorites 1) because of her guitar and 2) because of homeboys head between her legs!

This was during Love Story - She floated around the whole arena! Who else would do that?! :)

This is my other favorite! She was saying goodbye to us.

I tried my hardest to keep my promise and not put to many pictures! I hope ya'll enjoyed them as much as I did! The next time I go...best friends, will ya'll please join me? :)

Well, I think I have consumed enough of ya'lls' time. I hope you guys have a wonderful hump day! Don't do anything I wouldn't do ;).

Love always,
Haley

I'm Leaving My Fingerprints On You

Well,

It's been an eventful...yet exhausting morning. Around 12:30 this morning we had a fire alarm, resulting in the bottom three floors of Rose Towers to travel their way outside into the freezing cold (okay, it was 39 degrees outside, so ALMOST freezing) weather. We stayed out there for what felt like forever just to find out that someone on the third floor actually started a legit fire. The cop that watches over our dorm came outside yelling "324! Where is my guy from 324!" I look around and suddenly realize that my date to the Delta Sig formal, Chad, was the one walking toward the cop with his head down. I know it was rude, but I just started laughing uncontrollably. I feel kinda bad about it now - I think he may be getting kicked out of this dorm. Lets just say, he has a story to tell people about his freshman year!

This is Chad and I at Delta Sig...

Well, as you all may know, it was supposed to snow this morning. I was so excited when I woke up, well not as excited as I should've been - I was just so freaking exhausted. Sadly, there was no snow outside my window, just a lot of wet grounds. What a huge disappointment! Its supposed to get below 30 degrees this week sometime...now I just have to hope for rain! (Oh please, oh please, oh please!)

This picture was taken at my house when it snowed February 12, 2010

This semester is finally coming to a close. That's a good and a bad thing - it means 1) Christmas is FINALLY coming to town and 2) Classes are gonna get even harder. It also just means I am getting that much closer to my dream job --- that's actually kinda scary. Speaking of the end of the semester...here comes final week. I am pretty intimidated. As you all know, my biology teacher frustrates me. Not only does he send 16+ emails a day...he has also planned our final exam the day after The Maine concert, which is happening in Birmingham and is only $15 bucks to attend. Guess who is incredibly angry? You got it - me. I guess there is always next time...ugh! Dang you, Dr. Marcus.

Beautiful, right?

 Oh my gosh...I've been on this huge Taylor Swift kick, of course, and I just wanted to share a few lyrics with ya'll that are stuck in my head. :)

Well, I have to go study for my math test tomorrow. I am really excited about it...

Have a great Tuesday, and remember...IT'S ALMOST DECEMBER! :)


Love,
Haley :)

- 10 Things I Hate About You

"They Say You Know When You Know...Well I Don't Know"

Well,

I promised I would come back and tell you about mine and Tyler's discussion. Before I get that far, I am going to need to back up a little.

Have you ever met someone that just makes you actually forget to breathe (besides Enrique Iglesias)? For the first time in my life, I actually met someone who did that to me. For drama purposes, lets just call him Delicious. :)

He is teasing us...:)

Well, I was hanging out with Delicious one day, and I was just so nervous; my palms were sweating and I wasn't speaking correct English. It got even worse when he started holding my hand, my grammar got worse, that is. Well, when it came time to leave, I decided to "unknowingly" leave my scarf there to see if he noticed...he did :). For the past week, we have been teasing each other about my scarf, saying things like how he was going to keep it. I felt like I was in Middle School, again. You know, wishing you would see him in the hallway or just catch a glimpse of him down the street. Well, have you ever just had that gut feeling that something was too good to be true? That is exactly what this story is to me.

Saturday night was the first time that I had seen him since we all left for Thanksgiving. For the first two days of my break, I was so excited that I couldn't stand it - I was in that "dreamy" phase. Yesterday, I was a little bummed out because I found out a lot of things about him. Even though he was incredibly sweet to me Saturday, I just had this feeling that he didn't really care about me at all. I know The Maine keeps telling me "Don't listen to the voices in your head, listen to your heart", but it's not that easy for me. I have a giant brick wall around my heart. If I actually let you in and tell you secrets and show you my tears, that's a miracle in itself. As females, we all dream about being told we are beautiful, being held like there's no one else in the world, you know, all of that mushy junk. Well once he started telling me all of those things that I wanted to hear, I was sort of hooked. Continuing with Saturday, we were all hanging out and watching music videos. He ended up leaving to take this girl to her car...I decided that would be a good time to leave with Tyler.

On the way home, I was really quiet. Tyler started asking me about this other guy that was sitting next to me most of the night (I was trying to make Delicious jealous). I basically told Tyler not to worry because I don't fall for bull crap anymore. It's just so frustrating - all of my roommates have guys to go places with on the weekends. I guess I just want to experience that one good time during my college career. Well Tyler started telling me about all of his woman problems - oh boy; he started saying things that really stuck, though. For instance - he told me that I can't live my life with someone else before being able to live my life independently - he does speak the truth when he is drunk. Anyways, once Delicious noticed I was gone, he started texting and asking me where I was - hehehe. :) I thought it was a good idea to leave him wishing I had stayed - I am still proud of that decision. 

At this current moment in time, I am just not very sure about our future. I am not saying that I am pushing Delicious aside yet - most of what I know are my assumptions or things his brothers say (you know how boys are). I am saying that every single time he texts me, my heart flutters a little...STILL. He is keeping me on my toes...that's for sure. :)  

This is the song that currently makes me think of him...ahaha :) 

I started remembering a few years ago when a certain friend of mine had a crush on a particular man-whore. :) (you know who you are). We were gonna pull a "John Tucker Must Die" on him. Well, I believe that time has come again. :) Don't you worry - I will keep you informed.

This is currently the only man in my life - Bonar

Have a happy Monday!

The Jambalaya Mess I Call "Life"

Hello everyone!

I always have wanted to start a blog, and my friend Devin helped me want to do it more after reading hers for the past few months.

This past week was Thanksgiving break. I am so glad that I decided to go home Tuesday night; all of my friends were home and we haven't all been together for at least two months! I almost started crying when I saw their faces - yes, I get a little emotional. Even though I only got to see them for 9ish hours, it was totally worth it.

This year, I experienced my first Thanksgiving without either of my parents. It was hard, but I had all of my moms side of the family there to keep my mind off of it---well until my sister was given pictures of us from my mothers funeral. Aha. I have truly missed all of my cousins. We even decided to go Black Friday shopping at Belk. Pam and Alysson went to bed early - I didn't sleep until we got back from Belk; the sale started at 3 a.m. and we got back around 4:15. I bought three beautiful scarves and some awesome boots, but I don't know if I am ever going to do that again.

My brother and sister left the next day, mostly because Justin was afraid to watch the Alabama/Auburn game with all the bama fans (can I get a Roll Tide?). Last night, I received a very horrific phone call. My sister was in a really bad car accident - her car is officially totaled, BUT - she is okay and only ended up with a few cuts and bruises. I don't know about ya'll, but this shows me how tough the Moody family truly is. Poor thing, she sat in the ER for more than 8 hours. I will be going down to Mobile to see her next weekend and give her something to smile about. :)

I personally can't wait for Christmas. Even though everyone else's will be starting before mine, since I have to work, I still can't wait to go down and see all of my friends and my second families (ahah) before I spend Christmas with my legit family.  I'm secretly hoping that some of my friends will come up here and stay with me until I have to leave---IT WILL BE AWESOME, YOU GUYS! :)

Well, I have basically chatted your ears off. Considering this is my first blog, I want to leave ya'll with a few words of wisdom from my brother, Tyler. I will start my next blog telling ya'll why this discussion came up.

Tyler Moody "You can't live your life with someone else before you know how to live your life independently."

Peace, Love, Chicken Grease,

Haley Moody

This is for you, Alysson :)
