Lagoon Day

Yesterday was the best Lagoon Day ever! The weather was perfect, the lines were short, and I ate a lot of chocolate chews!
Tizzy was so cute and I took Tolly on his first "roller coaster." It's called Bombora and his face on it was priceless. Going up the hill you could tell he was nervous. After following uncle Ryan's suggestion to put his hands up, the G-force knocked his head down to the side and he clenched his jaw with his eyes wide. He liked it though and told dad "It was fast and scary and slow at the same time!" :)
 
Ice cream at Pioneer Village was fun. Jennie and my mom now have techniques for getting the biggest scoops. I got mint chocolate chip and tried some Rocky Road, Almond, and Cheesecake.
After my dad used Tolly as a shield from the water on Rattle Snake Rapids, I didn't really trust him to go on any big rides with, but I forced myself to do it:) We went on the Spider, then Wicked! It was my second time on Wicked and I opened my eyes for some of it this time:) It was actually really fun!
My mom and I went on Air Race in which her sun glasses almost flew off and she inhaled a bug!
After being forced out of Lagoon by some nice security guards:) my mom took Ari, Free and Tolly to Cherry Hill only to find out it was closed, then going to Oakridge for a 2 minute dip. My mom is so awesome!!
 
Tizzy really did have a great time! Her and Jersey thought they were just too sophisticated for the seatbelts! ;)

First day of college

Man, the first day was amazing! I don't have class until 9:30, then I walked over (super easy, short walk) and found my modern class easily. We went over questions and syllabus today so no dancing. I really love the faculty and I'm so glad I got to go to workshops here in high school so I'm a little familiar with the program. Then I had technique 2, and we did one across the floor. The two teachers said "okay, we have some people we want to move up to Tech 3 right now...Golda..." I was so happy! Placement happens throughout the week, but I was so happy to get moved up right away! So now I'm in pointe 3 too. I feel so grateful to be able to dance 9:30 to 2:30 every.day. !!!! I didn't get into my first institute class, so I read all the emails from my missionary friends. Mondays are a whole lot better with those! :) My colloquium class was good, then I met up with my roommate who was hanging out with 2 RMs. We went to play ping pong before another Freshman...

Navajo Nation

The Honors Program sponsors a bunch of activities they allow the students to sign up for. They are as simple as a paddle boarding excursion at night, to a four day road trip to Navajo Nation. I signed up for the Navajo Nation thinking that I wouldn't get in and that it was forever away. Then someone else couldn't go and I was informed it was in two days. I am the world's worst decision maker and I had a hard time deciding to go. I would miss 5 dance classes and a biology class, plus the possible opportunity to go to the BYU-Boise game and the singles ward. But I might never get the chance to go to Navajo Nation and I didn't want to regret the " what if's ?"  College is for being a little crazy, going out of your comfort zone and utilizing all your resources and claiming every opportunity. So I decided to go. I met the group at 6:55 am, realizing that I was about to spend 7 1/2 hours in a car with people I didn't know. What was I thinking?? But th...

At The Car Wash

Registering my car has been quite the ordeal. I have class until 5 every day and rehearsals Tuesday and Thursday, so finding a time has not been easy. One of my rehearsals was canceled today, so I drove to an auto-mechanic to update my registration. I knew I could get Safety and Emissions done, but thought they could also register my car. Nope! I have to go to the DMV. Then my car was failed, not because of the fact that the rear-view mirror is cracked (I bumped it in my apartment garage on a pillar-not my finest moment) but because there is a smaller circular mirror in the corner of it. It seemed like a tiny adjustment to me and couldn't believe they couldn't repair it right then at the mechanic! But it's fine-plus the owner gave me a free car-wash! Not just any car wash, "The BEST Carwash". It was $9. So I pull into the car-wash and jets start spraying all over and I can't see through the window from all the soapy water. And I'm like this is so cool! I ...
