HauteThought got a makeover!
Seeing that it’s a brand new year, and I’ve had the same layout since 2009 (call me a creature of habit), I decided that it was time to be a bit more colorful. Please enjoy this random hodgepodge of my dad’s records, 2 shoes and a bracelet of mine. Yes, we still have a copy [...]

Warning: this song is not as soft as the usual mid-afternoon song of the day. It’s also not as, shall we say, chipper. I found this song mid-December, saved it, and told myself it would be perfect for a song of the day. Though a soft melody and meaningful lyrics are enough to make my [...]

This song is a bit of a lie. I heard it at Express the other day (so I technically didn’t find it today) and it’s been stuck in my head ever since. I definitely knew the Michael Jackson portion (duh, what kind of fan would I be if I didn’t) but I couldn’t figure out [...]

Today is Friday, which, in case you didn’t know, is code word for amazing. The weekend is hours away and a lot of us are dancing in our seats, excited to take a brief break from work or school. Naturally, I had hopes of finding a song that mirrored my optimistic and overly excited attitude. [...]

Black Swan Review
by: Tyler Deardorff Wow, I was not expecting this. When my friend Anne asked me to go see this movie (we usually see the “hype” movies) I was expecting a lame ballet movie. Holy shadooby was I wrong. This movie is intense, disturbing, suspenseful and a it messes with your mind. Natalie Portman is practically [...]

Oops, she did it again. Britney Spears’ new single leaked today…and I wish it hadn’t. The electro/club/dance sound only contributes to her overly computerized voice, and makes it all sound a bit robotic. It isn’t all that surprising seeing as she seemed to take advantage of technology when she was ridiculously popular, but the girl [...]

“Saw 3D” Review
By: Tyler Deardorff Another Halloween, another SAW movie. It’s a tradition now. Ok, I’m going to be honest and get this out of the way: for some weird reason, I like the SAW movies. Yes, the acting may suck and it may be pretty disgusting but under all of that are pretty good morals. [...]

The 5 best shows on TV
By: Tyler Deardorff 5. The Walking Dead (AMC) Ok, I’m cheating on this one since it just premiered but you can’t get more original than having a show about zombies. It looks like they had actual fear and emotion in this show. Can’t wait to watch it. A guy wakes up in a hospital and [...]

By: Tyler Deardorff Alright, I’m not just saying this because I’m a die hard Iowa fan. I’m saying it because it is true. Iowa football has done a 360 in 3 years and turned out to be a great, diverse team. Granted, Iowa has never been a horrible team. Well…let’s just say they weren’t after [...]
