Uh uh uh uh OW!

[Quick note: Kindly ignore the title of this blog post, unless you're a particularly hardcore Rent fan and can tell me what it's from. That song's been in my head all day, and it cannot be helped.]

Hello, lovelies. It's been a while. And what a while it's been! Since my last post, I:

--Wore way too much makeup and went to a dance celebrating the attendants' homosexuality, despite the fact that I'm in a monogamous heterosexual relationship.
--Performed the choreographed "Bad Romance" dance with a crowd of fellow Gaga fans.
--Went to a weekly event put together by the theatre department, in which the Playwriting majors create short sketches about a particular prompt and have something like five days to produce them. And last week's theme was sexuality. So. Oh-ho.
--Celebrated PJ's birthday by ceremoniously tearing up the cake I made him, as well as Leah and Kayley's birthdays, which were commemorated with videos.
--Met a new friend who, coincidentally, recognized me from my makeup tutorial parody.
--Declared National Angst Day with my roommate by requiring all our friends to complete their homework in our room, whilst complaining about said homework and eating chocolate.
--Made a short and stupid video, mostly to remind my subscribers of my existence.
--Didn't stop the party, despite the tik tok on the clock.*
--Realized there are only three weeks left in the quarter, and that I've been neglecting my schoolwork for two months to provide time for giggling about/doting on my boyfriend.

Sigh. And that brings us to now. I'm in my Child Development class right now, but between paying moderate attention to my professor and writing this blog, I'm also studying for a Linguistics test. Channeling my ultra-organized oldest sister's neuroses, I've changed the desktop wallpaper on my computer to a list of assignments I need to get done. Luckily, I guess I'm even more paranoid about my grades than I am procrastinatory. It just goes to show: You can take the girl out of the social reclusion, but you can't take the Hermione Granger out of the girl. However, tonight I'm going to see the new Alice in Wonderland at midnight with PJ, Heather and Roomie, BECAUSE THAT IS CERTAINLY CONDUCIVE TO MY PASSING AN EXAM TOMORROW MORNING.

In other news, I'm sorry I've been away for so long. Every time I've had a second to write, I've been pulled away with the promise of food or low-intensity adventure. I'll be making a fiveawesomegirls video tonight, of course, but I promise I'll be back to talk to you fine people as soon as some of life's chaos calms down. Thanks for putting up with me so loyally. :)

*Really lame and poorly executed reference to this song, which I love, despite its tangible trashiness. Probably because Ke$ha is like a cracked out caricature of Jess.
**That picture is not of my hand. I'm not the rhinestone type.

Cha, I didn't even need to read the first actual sentence in your blog to now have the song in question stuck in my head. Thank you.

Now I will commence reading the rest but I wanted to leave the first comment because I'm a douchebag.

FIRST.

comelygrace said...

Dangit. Oh well.

I got really excited when you provided the Bad Romance link, thinking you would provide us with the actual video of your dancing skills with Gaga fans. Such a letdown!

;P

Lindsey said...

I happened to be listening to Part of Your World from The Little Mermaid.
Just thought you might appreciate that.

I know what you mean! I've been delaying, ok, completely ignoring my work and I'm trying to catch up myself. My stats teacher who has called me Hermione on more than one occasion even commented that I'm acting more like Ron than Hermione. <3

Jordiekins said...

So, you're going to go Out Tonight to see Alice?* Moi aussi!

Speaking of Bad Romance, aren't you s'posed to've, like, parodied that already, or are you going to let MirandaSings08 Trump you?

Well, take care!

<3

*sha-BANG. See what I did there?

I've had a horrible day, but this post AND being reminded you'd post a 5AG video really, really cheered me up.

I was never really interested in the names of nail polish before you started making note of them in your blog, and I just recently purchased some nail polish solely on its name: OPI's "Nomad's Dream."

:)

Nell said...

I like how in this blog you talk about how you went to a dance celebrating homosexuality, and then the link for your purple nail polish said 'For Men and Women'. oh yeah and your blogs are addictive, thanks for giving me yet another reason to put off my mundane homework. :)

Olivia said...

Glad to see you around, Hayley. I keep trying to learn the Bad Romance dance.

Let us know what you think of Alice in Wonderland. I'm in two minds about it, but I'll probably go see it anyway because I am a sheep.

Good luck on your test!

Courtney said...

Weird, because that song just came up on shuffle.

I've always had a not-so-secret desire to sing your title while straddling a fire escape. Loves it.

I ate Chipotle for the first tine on Monday, and I thought of you.
It's delicious, and I want more.

I'm trying to see Alice tonight. However, we have no way to get home, and not being legal adults, my friends and I can't take the bus back because of curfew. So we're now into the process into talking one of our college friends into going so we can have a ride.

More of this!!
Apparently you should be a hand model. Like that's gettin a little ridiculous.

p.s. THANK YOU. OMG.

Laura said...

I don't have anything particular to say about this blog post. But I saw this today and thought of you. You really should consider getting this tattoo.

Make sure to let us know how Alice was!

Let's go to a bar, so dark we forget who we aaaare...

And now it's stuck like gum to a ceiling.

HAYLEY! You have to watch the following video. It's so fetch!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQeTlxhhmEo

I saw it and thought you would appreciate it in all it's glory =) I hope you enjoy it!

Unknown said...

I only saw the title and without reading I started humming "Out Tonight" to myself.
I can't decide if that makes me amazingly brilliant or pathetically obsessed.

You need to bring in an exorcist to get the Hermione out of people. :P But don't try it. She's nice to have around.

Brianna said...

Phew! As I was waiting for my laptop to turn on I thought to myself, "If Hayley doesn't write a new blog post today I'm going to have to start one of my own."

Thanks for saving the internet space that can now be used for, y'know... stuff.

Tom said...

Out Tonight! When I first saw/started listening to that show, I thought Mimi was supposed to be black, so the line, "feels too damn much like home when the Spanish babies cry," always made me go "lol wut." 'Cause it was hilarious and confusing.

Nokorola said...

"procrastinatory" - favorite word of the week.

Hayley, you stay cool.

Eric Gomez said...

Nvm... Out Tonight.

Do I still LuPWN?

Can you make a parody of Tick Tock which begins "Wake up in the morning feeling like HayleyGHoover"

Maria said...

You're sweet wanna hit the street? :D RENT is simply great.

That's so weird, I've had 'N Sync's "It's gonna be me' stuck in my head for the past week and a half.

Alex Dahlberry said...

Ah, going to see Alice tonight, I hope it's amazing!
Your life seems swell, so I am glad. :)

Although Big Black is very convincing, I still tend to procrastinate when it's covered up by a Google chrome window.

So happy I just had to share. :)

Your blogs always make me feel better :)
Over the past few months, I've had some major best friend drama, (she says it's my fault that she's excluding me from everything and she's just being "social". I call major BS, but I digress) and so I usually come home from school and flock to my computer, and your blogs just always make me smile.
Thank you.
:) <3

Well... that's quiet interessting but to be honest i have a hard time visualizing it... wonder how others think about this..

Johnny Rollerfeet said...

do you have a P.O. box? i'd like to send you a book about Chomsky (since you're in a linguistics class) that made his linguistics work really connect for me. his essays (and his post-linguistics political tirades) I found incomprehensible, but this book, "A Begginer's Guide to Chomsky", quadrupled my love of words/language, and (finally) helped me understand why Chomsky was such an important scientist (before he abandoned science for politics.) ...and it's written sort of like a graphic novel, so it's fun too!
