i made friends with these two really nice girls in my class

there are a ton of highschoolers in there! i thought i was going to be the only one!

that night i tried to blow dry my hair straight

this is literally the closest i have ever come
is that sad?
anyways, it went away the next day

the breakdown
tank: the rack. scarf: nords. jeans: the rack
big thighs: you can blame genetics for those
(seriously. i wear a five in dresses and shirts and a nine in pants. screw you sorensen fat gene)

whoooo friday! 

we finally got to sing in acapella

it was amazing! 

this  year will literally be the best year of all time

meg mitch and i went to the tailgate party and then the football game! 





i discovered that im really bad at taking pictures because i could never manage to get all of us in them 

yeah. we lost the game

our team did manage to score one touchdown though!

you should have seen how crazy the crazies went (hahahah)

bruins have school spirit even if we lose! 

saturday!



i got asked to homecoming!!!!!!!


yep. my friend sam jolley asked me!

and of course, i ran off and got my dress before i even answered him back

im really debating putting a picture of it on here

i probably shouldnt

ill tell you that it is pink and it cost 50 bucks

yeah. cheap!

my shoes cost 25 (originally 80)

and my earrings cost six (originally 25)

so yeah, its a good thing i got asked the day i did!

hahahah soo yeah

thats basically all

today i am going to write a list of every single piece of clothing (and shoes and hair things and jewelry) that i own

so i can make sure that i wear everything i have!

the last first day

hi!

im sure the blogging world is clogged with first day of school posts right now!

(eww. clogged)

but, since this IS my last first day of school, i thought i would post!

 dont judge my awkward smile. its too early for my face to be warmed up 
the break down 
tank: nordstrom rack. pants: nordstrom rack. shoes: khols. necklace: nordstroms earrings: target 

\
very dirty backpack: jcpenny



okay. so the day started out ROUGH. in a1 there is a boy that i am glad is in there, and a boy im seriously not so glad is in there

when i texted my little brother who was in my class he replied with this:
"sorry sis thats rough just stay away from him and if he gets too close throat punch him"

hahahahahahahaha. i almost burst out laughing in the middle of class

okay moving on!

a2 is chamber!!!!

it was lovely, even though we didnt sing

i got a look at this baby


it took me three hours

but it was worth it, because i think it looks beautiful! 

yeahhhh 

A3 is AP english 

and for the life of me, i could not find the classroom

good thing they have numbers or i would have been truant my first day!

then it was lunch!

we took a bathroom picture! 

lunch was excellent

thennn it was A4

spanish 3!

mr. heriford is hands down my favorite teacher

(maybe he's tied with mrs. mathews)

anyways, im one of 3 seniors in the entire class

reppin it

ummmm yeah

my feet hurt from all day in these

my feet arent used to heels all day

after school, meg and i got our choir council hoodies

thennn i came home, got some caffeine, watched some alphas and then headed off to SECOND class

(but what about SECOND breakfast? i hope someone knows what that is from or i will cry)

anyways. for those of you who were really worried about my extra class, i am here to ease your heart

my teacher is super chill

she told us that she is going to make the class as easy as possible! 

peeps. the church is true

ahhhh 

so in total, the first day of senior  year was comprised of:

8 hours of class
6 disclosure documents
4 boys and two texts telling me i looked nice
1 really bad stomach ache
30 miles of freeway driving
48 ounces of diet coke
1 really delicious turkey sandwich 
1 really funny memory from sophomore year
2 blisters
1 awkward moment
9 other high schoolers in the pharm tech class
23341367 times pulling my pants up 
1 face truely lighting up (meg knows what i mean! )

hahaahahaa this year will be amazing

moving on! 

so. i have concocted (had a really hard time spelling that) a senior year bucket list

because, who doesnt want senior year to be the best?

okay. some of these are OUT there

but if they all happen, it will make for the greatest senior year in all of senior years 

mmmmk

SENIOR YEAR BUCKET LIST!!!!!!!!! 

[] get a 4.0 every term
[] make a new friend in every class
[] go to every dance
[] get a full or part ride scholarship

today marks the end of the last week of summer

*sigh*

i have thoroughly enjoyed this summer

and this last week has been fantastic!

monday and tuesday were choir days

chamber rehearsal on monday (we sounded amazing btdubs. im stoked for singing with them!)

choir council work day on tuesday

not to mention i went to the gym for sculpting class

im still sore

megan accompanied me to my weekly trip to seven peaks



(thats a gorgeous face you are making there, haley)

we went to jdawgs after (its kind of a tradition)
the attractive guy that works there told me that he recognized me from all the times i come in there
(is that good or bad?)

ha ummm

wednesday was a choir day as well

it was the chamber retreat!

and of course, i was the only person there who forgot my shirt

how embarrassing

we had a blast though!

dats me with a nylon on my head

shhh

later that day me and meg went thrifting at D.I. 

they have a LOT of old lady clothes there

but i did manage to find two gems 

total = 14 moneys

what beats that?

the dress, as meg said "looks like something lauren vancott would wear"

(which just means she has good style)

that night was the chamber pool party

no pictures, but it was really fun! 

thursday was the big hair dye day!
its a huge change! 
before                                                                                                                  after!























its practically black!
buuut i really like it!

my bangs make me feel like i need to wear pencil skirts and glasses and heels and ponytails

its the first time ive had bangs like that since 9th grade!


see look

my hair is definitely not that color anymore

uhmmm

on thursday i went on a date!

with jake bingham, adam and hannah broach

it was way fun!

we went to the lehi trafalga, (which was much less awkward than last time i went) and mini golfed!

then we went to cafe rio

adam was driving, and he almost killed us multiple times

but it was way fun!

friday was family day

we went to a chinese buffet



can i just tell you, ive fallen in love with diet soda

yeah. its weird

but i cant drink sugar, so i drink diet

and i love it

its messed up

ha ummm 

after lunch we went to orem jr. to show nathan where all of his classes are

it was hecka weird being back there

flood of memories

not all good ones

9th grade was the worst year of my life

hah anyways


that night i hung out with sam, adam and jett

we went to classic

then we went to caseys

more memories

like, a LOT of memories

we were all sitting there, singing while casey played the piano

just like old times

weird. it was so weird.

saturday was tons of fun

sam, jett and i went boating


dont i look lovely 

but no, it was wicked!

i even went wake boarding

i think i pulled my arm muscles, but i still went! 

then, meg and i had a movie night! 

we watched 500 days of summer (my favorite movie of all time)

and we ate chips and drank diet soda
