this song has some of the best lyrics i have ever heard

kay bye(:

i feel like dancing tonight

HELLOO! my goodness i have not posted forever! not because my life is super amazing and im going to go on and on and on about it. because, ive been running, in school, and DRIVING!!!

okay first. so i have been going to cross country everyday, and it has been heck. of course i have gotten injured two weeks into the season. its not even the season yet. two weeks into summer training, and i am injured. its not my shins this year, its my achilles tendon. it KILLS. i cant run up hills, and i have to ice it everyday. thats what i get for being a crazy runner. me and aly are the gimpy girls in the back. i swear, i have to stop every ten minutes to strechh. it sucks. also, someone joined xc. yay..... thats all(:

second. school? what? summer school? ohh HECK no. i swear i will never go to summer school. i am in drivers ed. for three hours a day. but its worth it because i get to drive! I am not that bad of a driver, but im not very good either. but ive driven all over the place! today i did my first three point turn in a street, and i made my maiden voyage to costco. i havent been on state street yet, or the freeway. but im getting there. eventually.  so there is a spider living on my bathroom ceiling. since i couldnt reach him, i let him live and named him jeffery. one day, when i was getting readay for xc, i picked my shirt up off the ground, and jeffery was on it, and i flung him across the room. im pretty good at doing that, since i flung my phone off my bed into the wall, and it still works! thats me with jeffery... can you see him? hes pretty cool. but he dissapeared after i flung him.. 

 i had to stand on a chair to take a picture of me and jeff, so i took a picture of my on the chair... look how long my hair is.. im sorry i just had to mention that! sooo... what else have i done this week? pretty much nothing. although i DID have a great "discussion" with one of my friends. and by discussion i mean that i tried to talk to him, and he refused to listen to anything that i was saying. it was lovely. i reallyyy really like to drive. uhmmm... i dont really have anything else to say. my life is pretty boring. sooo.. bye!

excersizeee

what can i say about today? probably the most excersize i have ever gotten in my life. i went running with haley this morning. we ran to the lake. it was only four miles, but it was long, straight streches of asphalt with the sun beating on us. while running, we came across a squirrel that was roadkill. i didnt want it just baking in the sun, so i moved it to the grass beside the road. i found some wild flowers, and i was going to put them on his grave, so i went to get them. i got scratched by barbed wire, apparently i was tresspassing. right when i was walking over, a police man drove by and stopped. he thought we were getting into trouble. it was scary. the run was hard.  then we had to ride our bikes up an incredibly long, steep hill. it was amazing(: so i get home, and head of to the lake AGAIN to go boating. that doesnt sound like excersize right? wrong. we went tubing, and i had to hold on for dear life. that didnt stop us from tipping the whole tube over, and it certainly didnt stop me from smashing my head into nikki's sister's finance's (got that :P) body. i felt like i had a concussion. while at the dock, the children spotted a dead fish and made me pick it up. two dead things in one day. i might have rabies :P me and nikki had lake hair, but we went ahead and walked to zupas none the less. and, surprise! i finally got something different from zupas, instead of mango salad. i got a sandwich, and it was delicious(: the worker lady asked us what we had been doing all day, we looked so bad. plus, i got FRIED. i literally look like a lobster right now. awesome? not really, but i will be tan. so after boating, me, nikki, joe, leka, and calli went to provo beach resort. we went bowling, and i got SECOND PLACE! that never happens! i always get last, but i got second without any help from anyone! maybe it was because of the freaking attractive guy that was manning where you pay for bowling. i told leka that i thought he was hot, and so leka walks over there and TELLS HIM! i didnt think i could get anymore red, after been fried, but i did. it was totally embarrasing! anywho... so after bowling, we went downstairs and played arcade games. me and leka played this game, and i won us 1000 tickets!! awwweeyeaahhh. i was nice, so i split them. but still. and it was my first try at the game and i just won! it was amazing! then, we went to nikkis house and had a fantastic time. pictures!




this is what the lake does to me. i look lovely(:

the best thing i never had

okay. i just had to post this. yesterday was the BEST day ever! why? well, i went and saw the green lantern at 12:02 in the morning. you would not believe how many FREAKING attractive guys there are at comic book movies. srsly. 10% wierdos dressed in green lantern costumes, 20% girls, and 70% attractive boys. the guy that takes the tickets actually moved into the hallway to watch me and nikki walk to our theater. it was creepy. we got home at 3 a.m., and i got up 4 hours later to go to cross country! that, right there, is called dedication. we ran a hill today, and i wanted to stop sooo badly. but i didnt. when i run, i like to blast music and close my eyes. that way, its just me and my heart beat, lungs, and aching legs. i can focus on making them stronger instead of whats going on around me. i just love running(: hopefully i will start to get better at it. i went to baptisms for the dead, and had an AMAZING spiritual experience there. wow i just love the temple. anywho, i have to go get ready so i can head on over to Strawberry Days with nicole(: bye!

kay byyeee(:

I, Haley Emma Sorensen, being sixteen years and two months of age, got my LEARNERS PERMIT!!

i am super cool. i should have my license by now. but nope. im getting my permit(: pretty cool eh? yes.

WHOOOO HOOOOOOOOO

i feel awesome(:

everyday im shuffling

hello my lovelies(: i have much to tell you! if you havent noticed... i now have 14 FOLLOWERS! whos popular? me? not really.. but still. fourteen people want to follow me. i feel pretty spesh. okay lets see. friday was a great greaattt day! i lounged all day, untill 8 when nikki came home from her week long california trip! we went to summerfest, and it was great(: we hung out with sam. nikki had to go, so me and sam went and found my new friend hannah. we went down the GIANT SLIDE! it was the only thing i wanted to go on! and it was fun! we were bored, so we went to find sam's truck, and we had walked for like 10 minutes, when he realized that he had parked somewhere completely different. people laughed at us as we turned around. soo we went up to where you go hike the Y. we parked in this little patch of dirt, and sat in the back of his truck and looked at the city. it was awesome, and the view was great. me and sam and hannah. it was great. sam talked a ton, and lets just say that i finally have some faith in the male gender. just a little. "All i want to make someone's day, everyday. i want to fall in love with my best friend." -sam jolley(: then, we got hungry and went to In n Out. sam was sad, and he talked to the window lady about his problems. i thought my stomach was going to burst i was laughing so hard. SO hard. my goodness it was hilarious. thennnn me and nicole had a sleepover, and went to winco at 1 in the morning. that is our favorite thing to do! then, we watched she's the man, and she fell asleep, but i stayed awake untill 3:30, when i had to get up at 7:30. am i retarded? yes. then i went to springville for their parade. it was awesome! there were these karate people in the parade that were handing out pieces of wood. random. so random. we go to the parade every year. i got to play with my grandma's kittens, and i came home looking like an emo from all the scratches on my arms.  it was worth it

though. i walked around the parade with my cousin's baby, pretending i was a teen mom. it was pretty dang funny. people gave me weird looks. the cats gave me wicked allergies, so i looked terrible when i DIDNT go to summerfest. well i did, after no one called me. apparently, t-mobile's network was all screwed up, so none of thier phones worked. so i had a horrible, horrible night, thinking i got stood up, and going to summerfest with landen, and seeing someone that i really didnt want to see. it was a terrible night. i guess my life had to get balanced out after the super fun night i had with sam and hannah and nikki. oh well. life goes on.

so tomorrow is cross country. you have no idea how excited i am. i have been waiting for like 5 months! aahhhh. here are some pictures from the week(:

 

soo yep(: my life is great right now! oh wait i forgot! i have a great quote for you!

As women, we discredit ourselves. we think we arent pretty enough, or strong enough, or smart enough. but when you look at everything you are able to accomplish, the only person you are fooling is yourself - Sachi! ( my young womens leader) she lovely no?

here are my songs for the day!

kay bye!

heart of gold

well... since i have nothing else to post about... here are some way good songs i have found :)

they all came off of my NOW cd's. do i still listen to cd's? you bet(:

this song reminds me of nikki

speaking of nikki

http://niknak-pattywak.blogspot.com/2011/06/my-best-friend.html

its all about

me!

hahahah that dork. sweet talking me on her blog

she OBVIOUSLY wants something from me

just kidding of course

tonight was the young at heart dinner. its where all the elderly in my ward come to a dinner with the youth. it was so sweet to see all the old couples that had stood the test of time. hopefully i can find something like that (: 

kay byyeee!

my life in the fast lane

what have i done this week? eat. sleep. a lot of sleep. i am giving myself one week of complete laziness, where i can sleep all day, and eat what ever i want, and watch as many movies as i can. plus, i have already read 4 books and am tackling number five. four books. since sunday. yeah. i am a nerd. any ways, cross country starts next week. am i getting prepared? nope. im lounging on the couch just chillin in my snuggie. haha(: quote! preetttyy much i have nothing else to say. peace!

JuNiOrS (yes. it did require me obnoxoiusly writing it like that)

so. its official. i am now a junior! no more sophmores. no more boy crazed sophmores to be exact. landen tells me that this year is the year that we will all look back on when we are old. i want to make it the best year ever. which i THOUGHT sophmore year was going to be. was i wrong? completely. lets review

August. went to sophmore day. i made a bunch of friends. then they didnt talk to me again. gotta love highschool. it was weird getting used to highschool. our school is one big hallway, so its pretty easy to get around. but still. i had way more homework, and more responsibility. plus, i had to look cute ALL the time, instead of having lazy days like in jr. high when no one cared. me on the first day of school(:

September mostly consited of going to cross country practice. i ran the rookie race, and got 63rd out of like 300 girls. i felt pretty cool. i made new friends, and learned how to adjust to life in high school

October was full of drama. well, we all know what happened then. Orem lost to MV 33 - 0, and that was the worst night of my life. then i had a fabulous dance, where i cried, and my dad almost killed one of my friends (im just kidding. he wanted to though). jade and I had a lovely photo shoot. it was our last one ever. oh yeah. and this blog came about!

November was spent with nikki, damon, and adam. we had our little foursome, and were the best of friends. it was H.A.N.D (haley, adam, nikki, damon). my family had thanksgiving at my aunts house, and ate a ton. it was a way good month

December was okay. adam stopped hanging out with us. christmas came (obviously), and i got a lot of great things(: the highlight of that month was the cultures assembly. dont ask me why. it just was. i spent new years with sam, casey, and steven. it was a party. i also went snowmobiling for the first time. me and nicole also pulled our first all nighter! it was crazy.

January was the start of the new year. i tried to do no sugar, but a failed. nothing that exciting happened it january. it usually doesnt. 

February came with my first good valentines day. read this to see why. i counted down the days till my 16th birthday, and tried to heal my heart

March was spent at open gym. i was frantically trying to get my back handspring so i could try out for cheer. i would have made it. except someone was keeping up on my progress, and telling others that i was doing terribly, and the girls at the gym were mean, and i realized that i didnt want to deal with that the whole next year. so i quit two weeks before tryouts. lovely story right? right

April  was the month that i turned 16. so many things happened that month. my birthday, my first three dates, prom, stephs birthday party, sushi. probably the best, but most stressful, month so far. i also lost my studco elections. you would think that 3rd time would be the charm. but nope. its okay though. i will now be in NHS, OYC, the fashion board, ptsa, conbrio council, the stake dance committee, and i think thats all. my deal with myself was if i didnt make it on student council, i was going to do everything else. which i did (:. also. its not that great being sixteen. i mostly get asked out by guys that i dont want to go out with. the only person i actually want to go on a date with, will never, ever ask me. i know he wont. but oh well. i am perfectly fine with chilling at home instead of going on awkward dates.

May. I MADE IT! the whole month, no sugar. i chose the hardest month to not eat sugar. why? well. lets factor in a huge choir concert with three tables of sugar, a baby shower, a baby blessing, three young women eating activities, a cheer sleepover, my english teacher giving us ice cream, a choir party. enough reasons? it was heck. i made it though(: mostly because nikki used reverse psychology. i would be all : i cant do this! i need sugar! and she would say: HA! i knew you couldnt do it! then i would be all: 

and i wouldnt eat any(:

so yep. sophmore year sucked. a lot. anything that will happen during jr year will HAVE to be better. soo yep

peace!

dance of the century

tonight. i went to the BEST dance of my life

tonight. i danced like it was the last day on earth

tonight. i turned into a junior

tonight. i danced my troubles away

tonight. was amazing.

p.s.

i just <3 being a third wheel

im thinking of making a business out of it

suck...

its been one of those days

when you get up at 5:30, just to watch the dress rehearsal for the talent show

when the idiots at the library loose your book, or else someone lied and said they turned it in when they didnt.

when you have to pay for that book that was supposed to be turned in

when no one signs your yearbook because you got it way too late

when the friends you were supposed to hang out with hung out with everyone but you (dont you just LOVE that?)

when your parents are gone all day so you have to babysit a kid that leaves and doesnt tell you where hes going

when you have nothing to eat in your house

when you left your bag at nikkis house, and now have no toothbrush, facewash, moisterizer, jeans, pajamas, journal or scriptures.

when you have nothing better to do with your life than hang out with a bunch of elementary school kids

its been a lovely day.

what a great start to summer.

this whole post is loaded with sarcasm

if you couldnt tell

its just been one of those days



one good thing though. i went to jamba juice and got a bagel. they toast the bagels there without the bagels getting hard. its like magic.

i am just in such a good mood.
