First Week of Sr. Year

Last week was one I was not excited about. In fact, I was dreading it. Senior year seemed like such a big deal, with so many responsibilities, changes, and expectations. And what if it wasn't as fun as everyone else says it will be?
Well, the first day I had French, Physics, Seminary and AP Art History. The day went on without a glitch. I have friends in every class and the subjects actually interest me.
Physics is nothing compared to Honors Chemistry last year. The new French teacher is really good, seminary is always great, and the Art History teacher is amazing.
B day was just as good. AP English, CE Math 1050, Interior Design and Dance Company.
On Friday I went to my friend's house and had s'mores and watched Emperor's New Groove. After the movie we talked. It was pretty late and we'd just finished the first week of Senior year, so we were all so out of it. We laughed at everything.
Saturday, Jess threw Emily and Zach a surprise party. It was their birthdays on Sunday. Emily was so surprised, Zach was too but his reaction wasn't as good as Em's :) He said he was really tired...perhaps from the party the night before :)

This week is going well. NUTCRACKER AUDITIONS are in two days!! That's so crazy! I've been working hard in class and I feel pretty ready. Yesterday I fasted with Ashley and Maddie and then we went to the temple to calm and center ourselves before our last Nutcracker audition. Ashley is the queen of pep talks and she gave us a pretty darn good one.
I'm so thankful for temples, and friends, and family, and dance and opportunities! Have a great Thursday!

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...
