Grilled cheese and Milk in a wine glass

Just another night of Grilled cheese and milk in a wine glass! gotta love being in NYC broke as a joke! Honestly, having no money is hard, but it makes you so much more appreciative of a lot of things...Like a nice meal for example. Today I got some hummus...Warmed my soul :) Today I went to the Apollo theater and chilled out with Rev Al Sharpton for a little while. It's mad crazy how these people will wait for hours to just give respect to Michael Jackson...

This past weekend was great. Friday I went to The Bitter End bar in the West Village and watched some bands play!! Very eclectic and fun. I went with Lo and Matt, and it was divine.
Saturday I had my intern party at BBQ's and went with Brittany to Steve's going away party. Gotta love Mormon dance parties. You know me and britt are always the first and last on the dance floor! There was this guy who was 6'1" and he was gettin down with us...It was quite the party. Sunday I was utterly exhausted but worked for RED BULL!! at the Gay Pride Parade. It was INSANE, but so much fun!

Last night I watched the Bachelorette with Lorin and Brittany Diana. I am so lucky to have such stellar friends in the City...I really am.


Here's some love and fun in the City for you

I'm not sure why I have a lisp in this --- Go Interns... The reason we did this is because we had watched Saved By the Bell for the past week or so whenever it comes on..and we all get OH so excited....Sandra's is def. the best

Jake



...so Alex knows that I am a Bachelorette fan...so...while I was trying to watch it, he was trying to distract me. Little did he know. I snuck my camera in to record the whole event so anyone who thinks he is shy/quiet will understand what I go through...



Oh and Jake is my fav guy...or was until he just got kicked off the show

I just found this...What the Heck

This is so awful. what is this video. I went to upload a diff one...and this came up. i was obviously in the sun too long.

My French Roomates6. thEY

So, if you don't already know, I am living in NYC and sharing a room with a lovely girl named Haleigh. Our other room in our apartment has our wonderful french roommate Landry. He is having a friend stay here for 3 weeks. Therefore, I have TWO guy french roommates. Wanna know why that's awesome.

1. They are from France so they are really clean
2. I get to speak French to them, and they laugh at me
3. They don't get weirded out about like...girl stuff..cuz they don't really understand what I'm saying
4. They love Whitney Houston
5. They decide whether or not to go out by rolling dice?
6. They keep me sane
7. Who doesn't love french men? They are hysterical

Here is my proof:

Meet the Interns!

So...as Sway would say, being an intern is the most interesting thing that happens in the MTV building! So..I thought I would share a little bit of the Madness that happens in the Intern Room and some things we were able to do this week so far! I was so excited to actually interview Whitney Port from "The Hills" and "The City" about her fashion line. It was my first interview, and I was a little nervous, but it ended up being a really neat experience! Sandra got to meet the cast of the movie F.A.M.E., and this is her favorite cast member :)
Me and Whitney!

Get it Sandra


Ben!


Me with Obama creepin in the background

Another Whitney!
Me and My Ad-Lotter Christa!

Oh Jett!

I don't have a picture with Ayana yet but she is the "fan" in this amazing video!

Alex still has my Black Eyed Peas pictures, but hopefully I will get to put those up/see them for myself soon!

Needless to say, my summer internship Rocks, and there is only more fun to come...Kinda like the Jonas Brothers Concert I get some VIP action at on Friday morning! yes, I am a teeny Bopper at heart :)

oh and a little shout out to an earlier post---I had my first day at Red Bull yesterday, and we accidently ended up on the set of Robert Pattison's movie...We didn't see him but we met the production people...hmm..connection.

Sappy Haley

So, I just had one of the best weekends with Alex, Brittany and Maggie. So good that I in fact layed in bed and cried while listening to colbie and Missy Jason Mraz while looking of pictures of the weekend. I don't know what it was, but I just felt so...good this weekend. Everything felt just so right....Probably because I had my best friends here :) Im so lucky to have britt carson and lorin and so many other awesome people in NYC but Alex just....calms me. Which is refreshing while in the City. We were able to see the Statue of Liberty, watch the Black Eyed Peas on the today show in VIP access, thanks MTV, Do some deals on Canal Street, Go to Ellens Stardust Diner and visit friends, go to dinner with Maggie, go to the Metropolitan Museum of Art, ride around on the boats in Central Park, make dinner and eat it 32nd floor roof and throw in some minor shopping here and there inbetween it all. Im EXHAUSTED, but it was awesome. Today right before he and Maggie left for their flight, Alex made mickey mouse pancakes and I walked into the living room and completely knocked myself out with the tv (which hangs down from the wall). I mean I literally hit it, then hit the floor. He rushed over to me and i said,"please dont make a face if it looks really bad it will make me scared.." which, thankfully I didn't have any major injuries, but I got knocked the heck out. We laughed about it nearly all day long, but I'm probably gonna feel it tonight. MTVNews is great...Heres some things I was able to write for the site:

So internship is great, and I will be working 27 hours at Red Bull starting next week. The summer is picking up, and I am embracing it with full arms.

Here's some pictures and Videos that make me happy

Hefa

Working at MTV has opened my eyes to a lot of things, but one thing for sure.

The world is obsessed with Rob Pattison!!

:) Every day discussions involve him in one way or another because, well his stuff is what is keeping Entertainment Buzz sites alive.
My fellow intern Ayana and myself were doing a task today which required a lot of mental concentration and she told me, and i quote:
"Haley, stop doing that! Take a break. You're brain is about to fart!"
I think I laughed for 10 minutes at this comment. My brain is ABOUT to fart. Classic :) Thank you for that Ayana, thank you.
The highlight of my day, (besides the fart comment)-was going out to dinner with a huge group of interns outside and getting in the Steam Room at our gym here...Ah, it was like my worries were washed away.
Hopefully Alex is coming this weekend. We shall see.
Oh, I'm officially a Red Bull Girl...!!!! I'm so excited :)
Here's to NYC, and lovin life
oh and New Moon :)

I just realized something

"I just realized something"...is the text that I just sent to my boyfriend, and it is something that I just said to my BFF Brittany.
THE MARRIAGE TALK.
woah brothers and sisters. hold the phone. Did Haley Murphy really just say that?
It's true, I had the marriage talk today with my Alex. We just kind of talked about future plans, nothing definite, but just a general direction as far as "we" are concerned. Which is funny seeing I told Alex about 4 months ago to never say marriage around me again because it freaked me out.

As I was saying, "I just realized something."
I would not truly be living out my dreams if he was not there.

I could elaborate but It's way to mushy for this. Needless to say, Provo might be my stomping grounds in a year or so. Who knows? It all depends on, well Everything haha

My biggest fear from my conversation with Alex was put in a sentence that i said earlier,

"Oh my Gosh...if we did get married and live in SLC for a year, we would have to be really careful....I mean, if I got pregnant, I would be everything I was scared of being, Married, pregnant, and living at BYU before the age of 23...I would name our kid "Damet "(this is how alex spelled our childs name...you can figure it out)"

So right now, I was supossed to go out with Lorin, but I have a huge morning. MTV is having me cover the Dave Matthews Band tomorrow morning. I get to be in the press area, report, and write an article! ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! then I have an interview at 10. Big day!
I need to start Researching Dave.
