Copenhagen

Traveling makes me happy! So here is a tid-bit of information, pictures and thoughts on places I've been
Travel is a passion of mine, so I threw it up on this blog of mine. ENJOY




København 


Copenhagen was such an amazing city to explore. I had never been before and it's not a city that's underrated in my opinion. I didn't know what to expect which made it exciting and mysterious!
We got the flight for about $400. $400!!!!!! That's the only reason we went. My parents could not ignore airfare that cheap. The catch: the flight was from LA. We live in Utah. That's right, we drove 12 hours just to get on the plane. We spent an hour at the beach after the long car ride, then headed to the airport. I left my new, warm, convenient, awesome, basically magical parka on the flight. It's the kind that could roll up into a little bag and it rolled away under my seat and I forgot it. And Copenhagen in March is freezing. So I would suggest not losing your parka. And...
  1. Wear a scarf. Everyone in Europe does it and they look fashionable and classy and sophisticated. Yes, even the men. Especially the men. I think American boys should follow suite ;)
  2. Wear leggings under pants. Helped so much!
  3. Invest in a good pair of walking shoes with good insulation, room for thick socks and strong soles
  4. Layer up! 
  5. Insulation! Copenhagen was the bone-chilling kind of cold because it's surrounded by water and far north. The humidity can soak through cotton and most fabrics, so wear wool or polyester or coats like this <And they're on sale!! Seriously, these coats are so warm and are not bulky or heavy
  6. Wear gloves and hats. Remember: no cotton. Also comfort, warmth and durability are more important than fashion

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...

The world is big. It can be scary. It can be a lot of things, a lot of adjectives because well, it's the WORLD. But there is so much  good  in it. Make it your mission to notice the good in every day life. One thing that you can count on is the sun. It rises, it's warm, it gives light. Things we need. Things that are good, life sustaining, bright. Happiness is not a side affect of a perfect life. Waiting to be happy is just plain silly. Happiness wants to come into your life, in fact, it already has, so acknowledge and befriend it. Make it deeper and better with gratitude, consistence and effort. The good in the world is apparent and abundant, just like happiness. Focusing on the good doesn't mean we ignore the sad stuff going on, refuse to ever watch the news, or be ignorant of pressing matters around the world. It just means that you cling to hope, never give up, fight discouragement and let the good into your life. Let the good in, put some good out, let light radiate fr...
