i am a mormon

I am a sister, dancer, and traveler. And I'm a Mormon.
I was born into an LDS family/home. I went to church every week and learned about the doctrines and teachings of my gospel. I read and studied and pondered. I prayed and received answers. I obeyed and was blessed. My conversion was a process and still is. You can always be more converted to the church, and to God's will. Over the years I had a steady flow of an increase in my testimony.... Living in a town with lots of members or just great examples. My parents' example of absolute selflessness. Attending church every Sunday. The Young Womens program and girls camp and youth retreats. Having callings, or responsibilities/leadership positions. The opportunities for personal growth and ability to help and serve others were plentiful. Almost expected. It made me a better person. It made me happier! I know without the light of Christ in my life, I would be lost. Everyone has the light. They're born with it. And I'm just thankful part of God's plan for me was to grow up in an environment that reflected, grew and shared that light. I want everyone to be able to do this. Something this powerful and uplifting must be shared. The message is being spread throughout the whole world by missionaries. Missionaries who live righteously. Who serve selflessly. Who are official, full-time missionaries. Or who are missionaries by example. Who have felt God's love and want to enable others to experience it as well. His love is constant and endless.

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...
