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

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! :)

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 ...

Happy New Year!

2014 will be a great year! It's 1:46 am right now so I will blog more tomorrow but I just can't believe it's January and the start of another brand new year! Yay for 2k14!!! On New Years Eve I went to a friends house to party! We watched Back to the Future and had treats, played games, and talked. We counted down, watched the ball drop, made fun of Miley Cyrus. There were a lot of people so it was really fun. On New Years Day we visited Nana, saw Frozen, went to Coco's and dad, mom and Ruby and I went to dinner. I'd been wanting to go to Rio Grande for awhile so we drove up to SLC. When we got there it was closed! So, change of plans, we went to Royal India in Bountiful instead. I'm so glad we did!! I love Indian food and it was delicious!! We got garlic, regular and a sweet naan and lamb sagg, coconut chicken and butter chicken and a mango lasse! Heaven. It was fun to just spend time with my parents and Ruby. They are really good about taking time to give u...
