Please don't forget me, I'm going away.

Hi :)
I didn't post yesterday because some days my life is just so boring that there is no need to even blog about it. I did get my invitations yesterday, which are awesome. Be looking for one in the mail soon!
Today we had our cap and gown class pictures which I think went well. That gown is so hot though! It's not going to be fun wearing that in May on a football field, but sooooo worth it.
I tried to be productive tonight and Google Valedictorian speeches...and I YouTube'd some... I want it to be entertaining. I actually wrote some things down, that's a start!
Well not much to blog about, unfortunately.
Here are some pics from today!
Later Days.
-Hil
Zackary and I
Ashley and I
Lauren and I
Morgan and I

Caleb and I

Day 15. "A dream is a wish your heart makes..."

A picture of something you want to do before you die.
I want to plan the perfect wedding...and it be mine!
This will of course mean that I've gotten over my commitment issues (also something I want to do before I die) and have found the guy I want to wake up beside every morning.
Sorry this is so cliche...but it's true.

Day 14. "If anyone asks you who I am just tell em I'm a holiness child..."

A picture of someone you could never imagine your life without.
Well I could never imagine my school life without these two people.
Caleb and Ashley.
I feel like I see them every single day of my life, all week at school and church on the weekends.
We have had some crazy times. From skipping school, going to eat lunch, shopping in huntsville...
We are the holiness kids of 2011! (minus Jade who people usually groups with us)
This picture was a few years ago, maybe when we were sophomores?
I love it though.
Oh and the caption of this blog...Caleb used it beside his picture in the yearbook hahahahahahahahahaha

Day 13. "Someone to love with my life in their hands, there's gotta be somebody for me like that"

A picture of your favorite band or artist.
Nickelback!!
I wouldn't say they are my absolute favorite, because I have way too many.
But it is one of the few things my brother and I agree on.

Day 12. "If you like pina coladas and getting caught in the rain..."

Something you love.
I love Jack Vettriano paintings.
I want my house to be filled with them.
However, some of them are pretty...X-rated.
Naturally, my house won't be filled with those ;)




Hey Lucy, I remember your name.

Happy Easter everyone!
I hope everyone has had a wonderful day, wore pretty easter clothes, and ate wonderful food with their family.
This 18 year old was awoken by her mother forcing her to open her Easter present haha. I told her I thought my Easter was going to be my Harry Potter movie...I knew she'd still get me something. I will probably be a married woman still getting Easter baskets. I think she was just really proud of herself because she bought me a book (which veryyyyy rarely happens) and she did a good job.

Yesterday I drove me, mom, and mimi to sister shirley's house so we could look at my senior portraits. We ordered a lot, and I get my invitations Monday so... pretty much anyone I've ever met is getting an invitation. We also went shopping...and they wore me out! That's not easy to do! I was in a horrible mood all day because I felt like I looked so gross, so I wasn't in a shopping mood. I told them next time I was driving separate so I could leave them haha. I got everything for my graduation table and I think it's going to look very cute. Even if we did buy it all at Hobby Lobby....I dislike that place so much, I wanted to cry thinking I had to go in there yesterday. When we were finally about to be on our way home I had to go through the drive thru at Wendy's for my mom and mimi and I was so tired and ill at them I wasn't paying attention to what they told me, they made me order a Whopper Junior for them...at Wendy's! I was sooo embarrassed, but they found it hilarious.

Friday was the last day of Eagle Week and I had to go to Snead that morning for a photo shoot, which I felt ridiculous doing. When I finally did show up at school, after going to Rachael's house and Chik-Fil-A, I took my 3rd graders their Easter surprises which they loved. The skits were very good (I thought Sophomores should have won) and the games were a lot of fun. We were the first Seniors since like 2000 to lose Eagle Week. Did we care? Not a bit. That night I went out with a very good friend of mine from school, Zack Scott, who was always telling me that he was going to take me on a date. We had the best time. Went to Santa Fe and had horrible service and ended up staying forever, but it was fun. I don't think I've ever ate that much in front of a guy haha. I wore my hair up and he had told me it looked great, but when we were eating I asked him if I looked tan because I had put on Fake Bake and he was like well I haven't really noticed I just keep looking at your hair, I was like okay when I wear my hair down like a worldly girl you never say anything and when I wear it up like a holiness girl you love it! It was funny.

Lucy by Skillet - Wonderfully sad song. 

That pretty much sums up my weekend. I hope everyone has a great week! I'm gonna go update my picture challenge. :)

Day 11. "Won't you give me three steps, gimme three steps mister..."

A picture of something you hate.
I hate what a procrastinator I am!!

Day 10. "They got the beat, yeah, they got the beat..."

A picture of the person you do the most messed up stuff with.
This would be Kendra.
When me and her get to laughing, we laugh about everything for the rest of the day.
She is one of the funniest people I've ever met.


This would also be Melia.
When me and her are together we are just weird.
I love her to death.


And last but certainly not least, Kayla.
She can talk me into anything. I tell myself that I'm not going to give in, but she always manages to find a way to make me.
She knows exactly what I'm thinking and it's scary sometimes.

Day 9. "Love lift us up where we belong..."

A picture of the person who has gotten you through the most.
More like people who have gotten me through the most.
That would be the parents.
I love them dearly.
This is a picture of them at their wedding, before I was even thought of, before I came and made their lives so much better...and stressful ;)

I've got two tickets to paradise.

Thursday- Nerd Day
So last night I was in the bed and decided that I would just go ahead and turn in my Snead scholarship paper so I grabbed it to look at it and....the deadline was APRIL 20th!! Which was yesterday! I leap out of bed and turn on mom and dad's light and make them get up, I was about to have a panic attack. I was like "Mom I'm a failure..." I cried forever and just had to force myself to not think about it and go to sleep. This morning all I could think about was that I got Valedictorian and I'm not even going to have a scholarship cause I'm not responsible. Thankfully I have the greatest mother on the planet and she took it up there for me this morning and they took it :) Praise the Lord.
I did not dress up today because I was so stressed.
School was boring again, I almost left.
Although Seniors did dominate against Freshmen at the basketball game today.
Tomorrow I'm supposed to get up and go to Snead for a photo shoot for their catalogs and stuff
Problems with that:
1. I can't take pictures in the sun, cause my eyes are always squinty
2. I'm really bad with directions and don't really know where I'm supposed to go
3. None of my friends are going :(
4. Tomorrow is Friday and I kinda wish it was gonna be a stress free one
I'm also trying to decide if I just want to stay home tomorrow night or ride with Bro. Matt and Sis. Andrea and go to Higdon's singing... decisions, decisions.
Sorry I don't really have much interesting stuff to talk about. So I'm going to try and catch up on my 100 days of 100 photos.

Day 8. "And the southern girls with the way they talk, they knock me out when I'm down there"

A picture of your most treasured item.
My most treasured item is my holyghost, but I can't take a picture of that.
This is my brand new 2011 white Honda Civic Coupe, that I love dearly.

Day 7. "I'm going off the rails on a crazy train!!"

A picture that makes you laugh.
Okay so even if I have crazy vampire red eye and this was so long ago and things are so different now, this picture is hilarious!!!! Kendra(ninja) and Alex(gangsta) are the best part.
HAHAHAHAHA
 So is this one... I can't remember if that's Kendra or Kayla under the blanket being a 'ghost'. I don't have a clue what we were doing. It was a crazy night.

Ohh kayla...
Kayla forcing me to take a picture on the sidewalk at school when I looked disgusting.

Day 6. "you can't always get what you want..."

A picture of a person you'd love to trade places with for a day.
Okay in case some of you live under a rock. This is Hermione Jean Granger.
I say I would love to trade places with her for a day, but really... I don't care what the movies tell you I really am Hermione. 

She is the bookworm who is always taking care of Ron and Harry and trying to keep them out of trouble. She has a big brain and an even bigger heart.

There is a quote that I found in a book one time that I love about her and perfectly describes how I feel,
"I've always resented Hermione, because I wanted to be her so badly and she never seemed to appreciate as much as I thought she should that she got to be her. She got to live at Hogwarts and be friends with Harry and kiss Ron, which was supposed to happen to me." -Lily from Dash & Lily's Book of Dares

There are so many quotes and pictures I could put on here, but I'm just going to have to restrain myself with these.

Day 5. "the jig is up the news is out, they finally found me, the renegade who had it made..."

A picture of your favorite memory.
Okay so this is not actually my favorite memory.
That would be the day The Lord gave me the sweet holyghost, but I do not have a picture of that.
I also am not much of a picture taker, so I have many good memories, but no pictures.
This was a very good day and wonderful memory though. I went to the Smokies with Melia the day after Christmas  and we met up with Hilary Simmons and also Landon Culver and went snow tubing and Landon also taught me how to ice skate, which I loved. It was a great day. Even if I could have cried from the severe cold. I never want to go back to The Smokies in Winter.

But I'm not like them, Baby when you finally get to love somebody, guess what, it's gonna be me

Hello :)
So terribly sorry I haven't blogged in a few days. It was a busy weekend and has been a busy week.
Alas! I have found some time to blog. Yay.
I told Mrs. Huffman I blog and she said something like "I imagine you have a lot to blog about..." haha love her.
Soooo...This weekend:
Saturday  
I woke up and cleaned some (not alot) of my room and finally cleaned out my closets!! Finally. The sad part is I still have some boxes I need to go through. I then took a shower and somewhat got ready because I was going to pick up Kayla so we could go to Gville to get dress-up day supplies. I get to her house and see that the people that are staying at their house all weekend are already there! I look terrible. Did not iron my clothes or work that hard on my hair. So I'm like, okay I'll just sit in the car and wait on Kay. Of course Bro. Matt wasn't going to let that happen. He comes out there and makes me come in. I was embarrassed, but I love the people that were staying. They are our new friends that we met at Villa Rica. The Voiles' family. Daniel&Dee Dee, Alex, Nick, and Andrew. So I came in and talked and then Kayla, Caleb, and I went shopping. Kayla and I got back to my house just in time to finish getting ready and off to church we went. We had a ton of visitors! It was awesome. After church Kayla, Alex V., and I to McDonalds, which we didn't even want to eat at but it was still fun and then jammed to some Rihanna on the way back to Bro Matt's. We dropped Alex off and went in to talk for awhile and then Kayla and Kendra came and stayed at my house where we all slept in the same bed and couldn't ever go to sleep because we kept thinking of things to talk about. Yea, we're best friends.
Sunday
Yay 3rd Sunday! Church was good, very long though. I saw some friends I haven't seen in forever which was nice. We ate in the kitchen and then said goodbye to our Villa Rica people. We all went to Gville, shopping again. Thank goodness I just bought 2 things. New Fossil Charm Bracelet and Charm, which I love. Went back to Kayla's and then to church. During communion I had to sit in the very back...again. It's okay though, I just think 'this is the lord's juice, this is the lord's juice'. haha. Kayla and I washed feet, she dropped the towel in the water, I started laughing and there went my mind! Her and I have fun times. I stayed the night with them and Natalie, because they always talk me into it.
Monday- First day of Eagle Week- Rockstar Day
We all got up and put on our awesome outfits and Caleb came up there so Kayla could gel his hair.
In case you were wondering, those are fake earrings and stick on nails in the pictures. 
A lot of people dressed up, I was glad. The best part of the day though was The Blood Drive.
I look forward to this all year. We actually had one a few weeks ago due to a scheduling issue, but I couldn't give because my hemoglobin was low and I'm pretty sure the lady didn't believe me when I told her my weight. BUT this time I got to give. I was so happy. I love giving blood, saving lives. I also work at it all day, so that was good too.
I had to run home after school and get ready cause Caleb and I were having our senior portraits made in Hampton Cove. I think they went well and after we ate at my favorite, Chili's.
Here are some pics.
Jade and I. 'Cause we all just wanna be big rockstars'

Natalie and I. 'And live in hilltop houses, driving fifteen cars'

Best pic of the day. Caleb and I. 'We'll all stay skinny cause we just won't eat'

Giving blood dressed as a Rockstarrrrr. (WHY can I not figure out how to flip pics?!)
Tuesday- Tot and Geezer Day
Today everyone either dressed as a Kindergartener or an old person.
I, however, did not get up until 6 after turning off my alarm clock and was not able to even scrunch my hair. So I had to wear it leftover from my senior portraits. Gross.
I also had the most awkward lunch ever, it involved alot of yelling. Jade and I wanted to crawl under the table. I also splattered salsa all over my white tshirt. Yea. It was that kind of day.
Thankfully the day went up from there. When I got home I got ready to go eat at Wings for Blake Edward's birthday. That food was wonderful. I wish I had some right now. I mainly talked to Kayla, Blake Chance, Luke, and Cory and we had the best time!!! After, Kayla, Seth, Kendra, and I all went to walmart to buy bandanas and Seth and Kendra were cracking me up. They are so funny. I drove us all home, and loved it.
Wednesday- Dressy Dress Up Day
Woke up late again this morning, but it was raining which I think is a good excuse. I still managed to dress up and get my hair up in like 15 mins! I was so proud of myself. Today was very boring though. Nothing interesting to even really talk about. I wish I could have stayed home.

Friday, April 15, 2011

And I don't know what I'm supposed to do, so I sit down and I cry too. But don't let her see.

It's Friday night. And what am I doing?
You guessed it. Blogging. If it so much as looks like it's going to rain, you better believe this little girl isn't going anywhere! Not even to Oak Grove's Easter Play that I have looked forward to driving to all week!
Dad was like "I can't believe you would even ask to go anywhere"

So... I wore this extremely cute skirt today that a girl at school made for me out of tshirts! Unfortunately not many people probably got to see it because I left school early because of weather. Dear little Zack when and got my car for me so I wouldn't have to walk in the rain, but just walking from the sidewalk to my car got me soaking wet. I got home and Madre had cooked me a Digiorno pizza (pretty much the only kind of pizza I eat), so I ate that then got under my electric blanket and put in Becoming Jane. I fell asleep halfway through the movie and slept for most of the afternoon and now that I'm up I just can't bear to finish Becoming Jane because I know what happens and it breaks my heart! Jenny will agree with me on this.
I think Jane Austen and I would have been best friends if we had lived in the same time period. I think I might be her reincarnated. haha. No seriously, watching that movie totally reminds me of me! Her love life definitely sounds like mine: Miss Independent, but then finally finds the love of her life, but can't be with him.
No I've got one even better! I've had more than one person tell me that Katherine Heigl in 27 Dresses reminds them of me! You know the movie about the girl who is always trying to please everyone else and plans other people's weddings. Always the Bridesmaid never the Bride! Hahaha.

Yea. Well on a brighter note I asked mom if she would get me the new Harry Potter movie and she said I could and it would be my Easter :) Yay. I'm veryyyy excited. Harry Potter has been a part of my life for a very long time. It was probably one of the first chapter books I ever read. I have now read them twice...well except for the last one. I cried so much that I don't know if I want to put myself through that again.

Oh! I'm finally out of my bad mood :) Despite not getting to go to the play, I'm actually in a very good mood.

I'm having problems. Today is Day 5 on this picture challenge and I can't think of what to put. I mean the night I got the hg obviously, but I don't have a pic of that. So forgive me if I don't post one today.

Alrighty I feel as though I've rambled enough for now.
Until later.

Day 4. "Momma's still cooking too much for supper and me I've been a longtime gone..."

A picture of you and a family member.
Teen Laura and Baby Hilary.
 This would be Laura Ann.
My wonderful aunt, who is more like a sister.
When I was little I followed her around and she would have to sit and watch Pooh and Barney with me for hours.
She was still living at home and naturally I was at my mimi's all the time so I was allowed to go in her room and take whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted ;)
She still loves me though.

According to you I'm difficult, hard to please. Forever changing my mind.

Well...Thank goodness it's Thursday right?!
I'm sitting here in my 3rd grade class while they are at PE (except for the 3 who are writing sentences).
I have been in a terrible mood all week. And I do NOT like it.
Neither does Kendra because she is such a sweetheart and has let me know every time she talks to me ;)
I am going to try and get in a better one before this weekend!

So I love the picture challenge. I am doing 100 instead of 30 days!

I am also very sorry that my blog is so ugly. I am having issues and cannot figure out how all of you gets your blog so cute. I'm not very creative. I'll probably end up letting Kendra do it for me.

I have been watching alot of Bones here lately and I love Sweets. He is so cute and I got to thinking hey I might like to be a psychologist. A forensic pyschologist sounds even better. Mrs. Huffman (my wonderful mother at school) would argue and say more like I'm the one who needs a pyschologist. Like I have said many times before though, I am Miss INDECISIVE! But seriously, I have got to figure out something to do. Even if it's just a general idea. I try to think of what I'm good at:
1. Telling people what to do
2. Reading
3. Talking. I'm not shy so pretty good social skills.
4. Planning
5. Okay I can't even think of anything else.
I would be a wonderful librarian. WONDERFUL! But sadly this world is going digital and that includes my beloved books (which I am sooo against). So sooner or later actual books will be a thing of the past and no one would need my awesome skills as a librarian. Sad, sad, sad. Of course, I will have my very own library at my house which will be a replica from the one in Beauty&The Beast. I've been collecting all my life for it (my mother calls it hoarding), so as long as I have anything to do with it there will be books!

See I totally got off subject. Random! My mind just jumps from one thing to another.

I will be leaving soon so I guess I should wrap this up.
I'll blog later!

Day 3. "Wandering down this road that we call life..."

A picture of the cast from your favorite show.
Boy meets world. I love this show so much, so there are going to be a few pictures.

Cory and Topanga. The perfect couple.
Maybe the reason I haven't found a guy is because I'm waiting for him to match up to this.

True love right there.


And....Mr. Feeny. The greatest teacher of all time.

 One of my favorite quotes.
Cory: Mom, Listen, I haven't been together with Topanga for twenty-two years, but we have been together for sixteen. 'Kay, that's a lot longer than most couples have been together. I mean, when we were born, you told me that we used to take walks in our strollers together in the park. When we were two, we were best friends, I mean, I, I knew everything about this girl. I knew her favorite color. I knew her favorite food. Then we became six, you know, and Eric made fun of me because it wasn't cool to have a best friend that was a girl or even know a girl, so for the next seven years I threw dirt at her. I like to call those "the lost years". Then when I was thirteen, Mom, she put me up against my locker and she kissed me. I mean, she gave me my first kiss. She taught me how to dance. She was always talking about these crazy things and I never understood a word she said. All I understood was that she was the girl I sat up every night thinking about, and when I'm with her I feel happy to be alive. Like I can do anything. Even talk to you like this. So that's, that's what I feel is love, Mom... When I'm better because she's here... and now she won't be. So we're finished.

And more:
Cory: It was raining... you had an umbrella... I grabbed it, stuffed it down your throat, and then I opened it. Shawn, I Mary Poppinsed ya

[In the future, Eric goes by the name Plays With Squirrels]  
Mr. Feeny: Mr. Matthews?
Eric: Mr. Squirrels.  
Cory: Eric?
Eric: Plays With.

Topanga: We're supposed to see other people.
Cory: I'm supposed to see other people, you're supposed to wait until I die.

Eric: Life's tough, get a helmet.

Cory: It's hard to imagine you as a boy. Did your parents call you Mr. Feeny?

Cory: Someday, Topanga's going to be a mother, and I'm going to be the father. Or, the uncle. Or, the way I'm going, the guy down the street with the binoculars. 

Another favorite!:
Topanga: Cory, the worst thing that ever happened when we were kids was that your Pop-Tart fell on the ground.
Cory: Yeah, and you convinced me to eat it. You said, "God made dirt, dirt won't hurt."

Topanga: I'm a damsel, but not the distressed kind, one who's totally calm and in complete control of her own destiny.

Cory: You get Feeny this year?
Shawn: Yeah. You?
Cory: Yeah. Which courses?
Shawn: All of them.
Cory: Yeah, me too.

Day 2. "Do you believe in magic in a young girl's heart..."

A picture of you and the person you have been closest with the longest.
Rachael LeeAnn Rice.
When we first started going to a holiness church Rachael was my very first friend.
Everyone knows how she is, she just comes up and talks to you whether you know her or not.
Most memories from my childhood have her in them. We were always together.
Played MASH at church and begged to go home with each other after.
I pretty much lived at their house when I was little.
She had been at my house the whole day the night she got the hg and she was so little that, that was the one thing the devil had on her was, she knew her momma wouldn't let her come back to my house if she got the hg (haha).
I had been with her the whole day at school the night I got the hg and went to her house after school. She had told me and everyone else that I was going to get it that night and I did!
I love her so much, she's always there when I need her.
(excuse the make-up I had on in this pic, it was halloween)

Day 1. "I got a pocket, got a pocketful of sunshine..."

A picture of yourself and 15 facts.

1. My name is Hilary Christine Morrow.
2. I have the best thing that anyone in this whole world could have.
3. In this picture I am wearing glasses, which I hardly ever do. I don't like not having peripheral vision in them.
4. I love to talk to people, so I think I am very friendly. I try to be!
5. I hardly ever leave the house without putting on perfume and jewelry.
6. I am a major reader. When most little kids carried around teddy bears and blankets, I was the weird one carrying around stacks of books.
7. My nickname (which I would rather you NOT call me) that quite a few people think of me as is "Herm" short for "Hermit". This is because I love to be by myself and I stay at home alot.
8. I have commitment issues. I call it my curse.
9. I am very sarcastic. It gets on my mother's nerves badly.
10. I have a shopping problem.
11. I over analyze everything.
12. I love to sing, even if I have no talent in it.
13. I enjoy driving. I really enjoy driving fast.
14. I am Miss Independent. I want to do everything by myself most of the time.
15. I am EXTREMELY indecisive. Which explains why I couldn't decide what to put as my last fact.

Girls don't like boys. Girls like cars and money.

Hello Hello.
I'm back.
Life gets crazy sometimes, but I think I've decided that the blogging life is for me. However, I am very indecisive. So tomorrow I could decide that it's not again. Also, I think that every title will be a song, or a lyric :) Even if it doesn't make sense, it will probably be how I'm feeling at the moment. Today's is the lyric that I chose to go in the yearbook beside my picture.
Alrighty so to update my many readers(aka Kendra) since the last post.

1. I have broken up with Derrick. Actually it was fairly soon after the last post.
2. I DO NOT want to be a teacher and deal with kids every single day of my life. (This will not be a surprise)
3. I am still very indecisive about...everything.
4. The plan that I'm going with now is to be a gold digger. Marry for money ;)  (This will not be a surprise)
5. I am Valedictorian of my class. Sweet.
6. I got a new car. I pretty much wish I could live in it.
7. I still haven't filled out a fafsa, but I did finally order my bridesmaid dress for Ashley's wedding.
8. I want to do that thing of 100 days of 100 photos like everyone else is.

So that is all the new stuff I guess. My life is going pretty good. I have an important speech here to write in the next couple of weeks and don't have a clue what it's going to be about. I have been telling everyone that I'm just going to get up there and read Oh The Places You Will Go by Dr. Seuss. Honestly, I talk so fast no one is going to be able to understand it anyway.
I turned in my prophecy for the yearbook. It states:

In 10 years Hilary Morrow will have it all. She will have finally gotten over her commitment issues and is now a Real Housewife of Alabama married to Mr. Rich N. Right. She spends her days taking her perfect kids to soccer practice, spending her husband's money, and having her dream career of planning other peoples' weddings.

I am so random. I could never write a book, I would just have all these random scenes written with no order at all.

I went to the smokies this weekend with Rachael and had the BEST time. Here are some pics.

You can't tell as much in this pic, but I always have red eye. Always. Ask anyone. So I pretty much look like a vampire in every picture.
Okay I think there is something wrong with me because I do not know how to flip this pic. Sorry just turn your head sideways, cause it's cute. Before Dollywood.

During Dollywood.

After Dollywood. How pretty hahahahaha.
