34 things Harry Styles has *DEFINITELY* been doing during the 1D hiatus


In case you hadn’t noticed, One Direction have been on hiatus for over a year now, and if we’re going to be completely honest, we’re not coping.

Without the boys around as a quartet we don’t feel whole, and our hearts have pretty much stopped beating. Like, we actually don’t know what to do with ourselves – apart from sit and wait for it all to blow over.

Although Harry has arguably been the most under-the-radar since the hiatus began, we’ve still been following him around in our dreams like top stalkers – complete with beige trenchcoats and newspapers to faces, obv.

In fact, we’ve been stalking him SO hard, we’ve actually got access to a top-secret list* of all of the things Harry has really been up to.

*Okay, so this isn’t actually a legit top secret list, but we’re gonna roll with the punches anyway.

HERE IT IS, GAIZ…

1. Cow tipping
Harry just can’t resist a sleeping cow just waiting to be tipped.

2. Binge watching ‘Glee’ on Netflix
Rumour has it Rachel’s his favourite name. You heard it here first, Rachels of the world.

3. Taking photos of random pieces of food
He actually got told off in a Currywurst shop in Berlin for doing it. The Currywurst guy was NOT happy.

Lone-ut.

4. Memorising all of the United States in alphabetical order
Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado… Because this is the type of stuff you need to know if you’re gonna take over from Trump.

5. Planking
Not that he needs to strengthen that already beautiful core, or anything.

6. Color-coding his closet
It’ll be easier to find all of his favourite white t-shirts.

7. Feeding ducks
We’ve never wished we were ducks more.

8. Tracing his tattoos with a Sharpie marker
And then realising it doesn’t come off for 2947 weeks. AWKS.

9. Braiding his hair
Braid it like it’s the ’90s all over again, Hazza babes.

10. Reading magazines upside down 
Just to mess with people’s minds.

11. Writing fanfics about Barb from ‘Stranger Things‘
Harry is missing Barb just like the rest of us. N’awwwww.

12. Re-watching the 1D episode of ‘iCarly‘
Because why WOULDN’T YOU re-watch an episode of ‘iCarly’ if you were in it?

13. Trying out Zoella’s GBBO recipes
In fact, we hear Zarry are the new Mel and Sue.

14. Paying for dinner just with coins
Just for kicks.

15. Doing the Kylie Jenner lip challenge
Need someone to try those extra kissable lips out, Haz?

16. Dabbing
Dabbing harder like an 80 year old at bingo.

17. Making ‘wot in tarnation?’ memes
Wot?

18. Playing scrabble
Rearranging the alphabet to put ‘u’ and ‘i’ together. CUTE.

19. Perfecting his whip
No, not that kind *insert emoji smirk face*

20. Learning how to rap all of ‘Hamilton’
Carrie Hope Fletcher would be one proud bean.

21. Re-reading the entire ‘Harry Potter‘ series…backwards
He’s getting Dobby’s sock as his next tattoo, FYI.

22. Taking quizzes on Maximum Pop! 
It’s just what you do when you have time on your hands, right?

23. Tweeting
LOLJKS

24. Watching cat videos on YouTube
Harry Styles vs. Grumpy Cat collab, anyone?

25. WhatsApping using only emojis 
It’s the best way to WhatsApp.

26. Practicing his Donald Trump impression 
HARRY FOR PRESIDENT.

27. Collecting cacti
Because, why not?

28. Perfecting his winged eyeliner technique
While singing his lines in ‘Perfect‘.

29. Learning how to speak pig-latin

Arryhay Ylesstay,

30. Facetiming with Ed Sheeran
Ed does know when Harry’s solo stuff will be out…. ;) 

31. Reading conspiracy theories on Reddit 
Is BeyoncÊ really in the Illuminati?

32. Re-watching ‘Shrek’ 
Even if the words to ‘All Star’ are actually really fucked up.

33. Sending gifs in the 1D group chat
He can’t stop trollin’ Niall’s new brunette hair.

34. And, of course, sleeping 
We can all agree that he seriously deserves the rest.
