I drew you a picture.

The above drawing is precisely the reason why I'm a writer, and not a... crayon... master. But my writing class was canceled for the day (Professor McSexybrit was sick), and there was a fresh box of crayons on my recently organized desk, so I thought I'd draw you guys a present. It's, uh, my blog. On my laptop. Because I love you. See you tomorrow, guys!

TheGingerHermione said...

But wait...is your laptop ACTUALLY pink? :o

comelygrace said...

Your picture is cute! Took me a second but I realized what it was before you told us. Also, did you know the dude's silhouette in your banner is like, he's Harry Potter?!?!?! How have I never noticed that??

Anonymous said...

Hayley!! You're not too bad! And, I mean, you clearly put some effort into it which is cute.

Joi said...

Honestly, you can only get so artistic with Crayola, so that's pretty detailed and I'm impressed.

Unknown said...

That right there is a masterpiece! :]

Megan said...

Professor McSexybrit? Did I miss something?

Thanks for the picture! XD

Kate M said...

awwwww that's too cute. it's actually pretty good. better than i could've drawn.
plus, crayons = AWESOME.

Lauren Sauer said...

you, hayley hoover, are a crayon master

Courtney said...

I built you a cake.

First thing I thought of when I saw the title. :)

Nicole said...

Adorable!

to_thine_own_self said...

Haha...cute!
And actually a lot more realistic than I could have done.

P.S. Is your laptop pink?

Unknown said...

Haha, awesome picture. I wish I had a Mac!

@RhianonLives: This is the only way I could think of to respond to what you said yesterday and I hope you read this! It made me feel a lot better that you went through something similar to what I'm going through. I did get a few EKGs done and an echocardiogram, and everything is fine. It's probably just a stress reaction, because all of my tests are healthy. It's still scary when it happens, though! Thanks for caring. :)

What I gathered from this post: Your laptop is pink.

I r geluz. I wanted a pink one, but they didn't have so I got stuck with a red one. I call it Ron to make myself feel better.

Kristi said...

It's actually pretty good! :D

The Dreamers said...

Oooh! You stayed in the lines!

Not something crayons will ever let me do :D

Aly said...

Impressive skillz miss HayleyG!

Christina said...

Crayons are the hardest thing to draw with. I am impressed you got that out of them. My art looks like a crazy mess when I try to use crayons.

Ravenclaw2313 said...

Not a crayon master you say and yet it's thousands of times better than any stick figure I've ever been able to pit on paper. You were just born with talent. It's great! Thank you for the present!!

Kemper said...

I find it incredibly amusing that the color of the ad in your picture matches the color of the actual ad that appeared on my screen.

Sarah said...

I think my new goal in life is to become a crayon master. That sounds like the most awesome title ever.

Caroline said...

The only letters I revise more thoroughly than the ones I send to my former english teacher are the ones I post on your blog, which is why I had to come apologize for using "you're" instead of "your" in the comment I posted yesterday. Hope you didn't cringe. Now that I'm done being obsessive... lovely drawing!

Caroline said...

Wow, I just linked yahoo.com.

nicole. said...

i love these new unconventional blogs. also, new crayons are incredibly sexy.

Sarahalala said...

Haha awesome picture!

Today on the bus I saw a girl with a shirt that said "I <3 The Situation". My first thought was, OMG she reads Hayley's blog!! Then I remembered who the rest of the world considers The Situation. Anyways, I was amused. :)

Hope you have a great day tomorrow!

Anonymous said...

UM. That's actually pretty amazing. No lie.

Cece said...

Looks goooood.
Now I wanna color...with brand-new crayons. God, I love brand-new crayons.

Kai said...

@Katie - I just realized that when I read your comment! I feel really dumb now, haha!

Also, I actually think this is cute! Do you actually have a pink laptop, though? That would be pretty awesome.

Snottlebie said...

A Mac? Tsk tsk (well, not really - I can't really form an opinion without having used both).

There's nothing like the feeling of a fresh box of crayons in the afternoon...

Christina said...

I love the picture. It is great. I wondering if you like the cover on your mac. I am thinking about getting a mac this summer and I want to know if I should get a cover for it.

Callidora said...

Instead of writing a blog you drew one. I like it. :o)

Catherine said...

(Cheater.)

But it really is a lovely drawing. See you tomorrow Hayley.

Anonymous said...

Only two blog posts left, Hayley! I bet you're excited :)
(not that I haven't enjoyed this deeply. Because I have.)

Natalie said...

Better than the Mona Lisa, that :p

Ms Rodgers said...

It's like you drew my laptop! I have a pink case for my macbook :-p it is like a photo!

Crayons FTW

Ben said...

So far in BEDA you've written your blog, vlogged your blog and now drawn your blog. I think it's time you sang your blog, although I don't know if you can upload audio on here but if you can please do it. :)

Manuel said...

I feel honoured :)

Ida said...

Well, that's um... a lovely picture. Good job Hayley, that's going right on the refrigerator. Yes.

Odi said...

Haha, "crayon master" I know exactly why you said that. Had the same problem recently. Artist's a bit ambiguous.

Alex Dahlberry said...

This is actually a lot better than what I could do.
Cheat of a blog. :P

Alexis said...

Hey Hayley!
I've been away for a few days so I just caught up on your blog, including the wonderful Depression entry, which did resonnate.
Not that I am depressed, but I used to be. A year ago I was totally lost in my life and I actually battled with depression for a while, most notably in the last two years of high-school.
I've also reached my peace of mind now and am able to keep the bad feelings at bay, though I do get the recurring feeling that Happiness is definitely not the result of easiness every now and then. Anyway, I've been thinking a lot about this situation lately, and I really think teens need to know that it will get better after highschool, because that was just the crappiest time for me, but now I'm happy.
Thanks for thought stimulating entry!

Oh, and I'm currently in a country which has sucha slow internet connection that I can't load YouTube videos. Aaah! I miss the Nerdfighters! How I can't wait to come home and watch videos again!

Joi said...

Today is awesome because I just realized it's THURSDAY!

Abby said...

I really like how your iSight camera is on. Skyping with The Situation/vlogging, even in a drawing. Just kidding!

Madhu said...

i really like this, hayley
its simple and cute and i kind of hated crayons before this
now i have a sudden urge to draw with crayons but i really shouldnt...

Alice said...

Crayon master sounds like the top level in a hardcore online video game. Poor Professor McSexybrit, you should make him a super artistic get well card

The Vagabond said...

That's a lovely picture, Hayley. : )

I got the impression that you don't like Owl City in your 5AG video. I don't either!! They are yet another popular band (slash single person singer whatever) that I hate! Another one is the Fray (and I already know how you feel about them) and Coldplay. Not sure about the last of these but for the first two we seem to be Music hating soul mates or something... like that. That one kind of got away from me but I think you know what I mean.

Jess said...

Genius! :D

Unknown said...

So, even though I definitely know what date it is (I've been dreading next week's AP exams for months now), it just occurred to me that April ends in 2 days. And you probably will no longer be posting daily. Obviously you deserve a break, but just know that your daily posts will be missed!

Raz said...

I dub thee the Crayon Master.

Also, this reminded me of the Lemon Demon song "Ode to Crayola".

ablar said...

So... who's Professor McSexybit? :)

And when are you gonna learn to color OUTSIDE the lines?
