Junior Year has begun


Can't believe Ari is in 6th, Free is in 5th and X is a new little 3rd grader!

 What to wear??



 This is my Dance Company binder. How adorable is this picture of me and my first ballet teacher Lisa?! I was a magpie
I took this beauty at 12 am on Friday night. I wanted to stay up to say goodbye to summer since technically that's when it ended :)

When I was little, a Junior seemed soooooo old! I didn't even know the order of freshman, sophomore, junior, senior, until.... well, I was halfway through my freshman year. When my babysitters or girls in my ward or my friends' older sisters said they were in 11th grade I just thought that was so different. So sophisticated! Now that I'm a junior, it is kind of old. I mean college isn't very far off. Maybe it's the easing into it that makes it seem like a smaller jump though. Seeing the sophomores today was weird. They belong in Junior High!   ;)
Anyway, the first day was awesome. I have friends in every class and my teachers seem wonderful. I'm taking Honors English, French 3, Seminary, Wind Ensemble, Dance Company, Chemistry Honors, Precalc and AP US History. I hope I can study smart and stay on top of things academically. I got two 4.0s last year so my goal is to get 4.0s all four terms this year.
I'm so excited for all the dance I'm doing this year! I'm taking 6 ballet classes a week, jazz and modern. And of course, Dance Company. I am just so thankful for Clytie's. It's such an amazing school and I'm grateful for the opportunity I have to dance there. I truly love it! *Nutcracker auditions are in 18 days!!

Good News

Senior year is almost three-fourths over. And I know fourth term is just going to fly by! Moonlight, Spring Concert, Prom, AP tests, college enrollments, Graduation! Speaking of college... I got a housing scholarship to UVU!!!! I am so excited and very surprised. I wasn't really expecting it, and when I refreshed my email on my phone, walking back into Dance Company, I jumped for joy!! The scholarship covers 2/3 of the cost for room. I also have a full tuition scholarship. There are 400 students out of the total 30,000 in the Honors program, 150 are Freshman and 36 Freshman get the housing scholarship. So fees, books, about $200 per month for the apartment and food is all I need to pay. Hopefully, the Regents Scholarship will work out and cover most of that stuff! I'm so humbled, grateful, and excited to be starting this new chapter. I think, deep down I've wanted to go to UVU since my first workshop there. Now this kind of gives me the assertion that it's the right...

Help!

Since I'm making the important college decision in a few months, give me some advice! What was your favorite part of your college experience? Do you feel the one you attended was the best choice? Did you stick to the major you went in declaring? If you lived in a dorm, how was it? Thanks!

Apartment 51

My roommates are the best roommates of all time. We had a dance party the other day where Emmy introduced me to the 'nae nae song'. Can you believe I'd never heard it? I know. Emmy has quite the moves too. Gentry was doing laundry, which is an event because she actually does it the right way. Cold, warm washes; darks, whites, color, reds. The works. It took a few hours, so Emmy and I stayed up with her jamming out and chatting. We got a little depressed at how ugly our living room was because we'd had FHE at a guys' apartment earlier and their apartment was amazing. Framed vinyl records, leather sofa, big-screen TV, Ikea spice holders, quotes. We were put to shame. So we decided to put up a bunch of pictures on our wall. It now holds Gentry's towing ticket, pictures, The Living Christ, Proclamation to the Family, my Broadway tickets, a map of San Francisco and more. It definitely cheers up the room. We are going to hang a banner thing up too so we can hang temp...
