My roommate Hadley

Walking home from stake conference today, I'm lagging behind my group of friends. One of the benefits of this is it allows me to observe the antics of my friends Hadley. Hadley is one of the more interesting people in Provo. The kid has the confidence that is only exceeded by hollywood actors and trash talking defensive backs. He just isn't fazed by anything. You can throw him into any situation and chances are he leaves with a number or two. 

Walking behind him today, I can see his attention turned to a group of three girls crossing the street. One of the girls yells "Haley, wait!". When the group reaches our side of the street, Hadley confidently uses the new information he just learned to introduce himself to the group, "Hi Haley, I'm Hadley." After introductions, Hadley quickly directs the conversation to the football game from last night. He's eager to brag about how he was arrested and removed from the stadium for using fake media badges to enter early. The young women are fawning over this story. Just as he had planned. 

Stories like this are a dime a dozen with Hadley. It feels like everyday he's telling me another story about some "super hot chick" he met. I've been woken up early in the morning by Hadley multiple times because he's so eager to tell me about the latest girl he slated. Often he'll greet me with his phone in my face grinning from ear to ear inviting me to examine the newest girl he matched with on tinder. Every single thing I've ever see Hadley do is because of a direct motivation from the opposite sex. Hadley goes to sporting events, but he goes so he can invite girls to come with him. Hadley does homework, but he does it so he can post a photo on snap chat to see which girls will watch it. 

Living with Hadley is awfully fulfilling and enjoyable. I hope he can find his one true love. I don't think he will anytime soon, but if there's one thing about Hadley, he never ceases to amaze me.
