Christmas Dance



                                      






 
It was such a fun night! For our day activity we did it a week before because most of us were taking the ACT the next day at 8 am. We went to the lights in Layton instead of SLC because it was just easier to work out with our big group. We got hot chocolate and I froze my toes off but it was fun. Then we made gingerbread houses at my house. We also watched a few minutes of The Sound of Music live with Carrie Underwood. The Sound of Music is my favorite movie so I was excited to see it. We made fun of it a lot and laughed at the cheesy acting. My favorite part was when Kurt hit like a D above the staff! It was so high and unexpected hahaha.
We had 9 couples in our group which was a blast. We had dinner at my friend Jess' grandma's home. It was all decorated and cozy and the food was delish!
I thought my ride was coming later so when Becca came to the door I wasn't in my dress and I still had to finish my hair (which I was so relieved worked out!) It turned out fine and my parents just drove us down quickly when I was ready. Christine had invited my mom to see the table settings and everything anyway and needed to drop off a yummy salad, so it worked out perfectly.
The dance was awesome. We stayed till the end and there was fake snow blowing over the crowd a few times. I wish there had been more Christmas music. We all agreed that too many of the songs were "in-between"; you didn't know whether to slow dance or just dance dance. It was amazing regardless!
We went to Jess' house after for dessert and watching a few minutes of Elf. We were all so tired we didn't finish it, but we were right on curfew.
Cole was a great date and I'm thankful for the beautiful dress from my mom!
The group; Ella, Jacob, Zach, Bekah, Parker, Charity, Alyssa, Robbie, Me, Cole, Savannah, Dillon, Morgan, Jess, Ethan, Josh and Emily!

There are so many things that make up a person. I know that "things" isn't the right word, but I can't think of something that adequately describes what a person even  would  be made of. Dreams, accomplishments, interests, regrets, mistakes, wishes, relationships, etc. I love ballet. I want to teach ballet, and I want to dance ballet. It's part of who I am. But my heart also yearns for the actress side of me. The little bite of real acting that I got at the age of ten in a production of Babes in Toyland in Salt Lake City. The countless drives to Ogden for rehearsals of Music Man when I was twelve. The ten-hour dress rehearsals of Jana's plays throughout high school. I miss that. My heart yearns for the flute. The peak of my playing my Senior year when I was practicing daily and could play Carnival of Venice like a pro. When I began to see what my practicing had accomplished and considered going on to play in a symphony. I miss French. Learning an entire other ...

Senior Flute Recital

*(I'm catching up)* November 21st Another rite of passage as my mom would say! Senior Flute recital! I had probably been practicing and preparing the repertoire for almost two years, not to mention the 8 years before that which allowed me to get to the level required to play the pieces. Cindy told me a Senior Recital wasn't required, but encouraged. It was good practice for auditions, stress and pressure management :) ;) and it was a good motivator to practice. I'm so glad I did it, even if it did seem overwhelming at times. I really started to love the flute during the months leading up to the recital. It was exciting to have something to work for and know that soon I could show what I'd been doing for so many years. I worked hard, but wasn't always the most dedicated student. Priorities often put flute behind school and ballet. Dance is my true passion and has been for so many years, but music has helped with dance and I'm thankful for the balance fl...

So my parents are off to Paris with Freestone and Tizzy. Lucky ducks! My grandparents are staying with us some of the time, but a lot of babysitting and homework is in-store for me this next week and a quarter so I was kinda stressed out. I spaced all my homework and remembered at 11 pm last night that I had a 100 question biology test, 2 Honors English assignments (That included reading) and 6 pages of math. So I woke up at 6, did it, planned to do the math during lunch and got ready in about 2.7 minutes. Luckily, I had tutorial so I went to get Algebra 2 help and finished that. Yay! And my science test turned out to be good, I could use notes and a textbook. I am so relieved right now and I think Heavenly Father helped a lot today. The Epic of Gilgamesh has nothin' on me today! :) PS Have fun in Paris guys! We'll miss you but not too much, I mean You're In Paris! :)
