DC Spring Concert



Dance company has been a big part of my high school experience. I think it's so important to be involved in something extracurricular with your school. It's motivation, involvement, and a deeper and more fun way of learning that often relates more to your occupation.
I made such great friendships that extended beyond dance and the studio. I learned how to work with others, how to follow and lead, how to choreograph, about college dance programs, about the elements of modern dance, and how to be a dancer who doesn't just entertain, but communicates something to the audience using movement. I learned to be unified with the other girls, and when and how to stand out.
Uniqueness was valued in dance company. Progression, research, dedication, practice and kindness as well.
I'm so grateful for the opportunities and experiences from DC. Concert was so much fun and so much work. I'm so happy with how my dance turned out and wonder at how it came to the finished product. Most of it was trial and error, happy accidents, experimenting, etc. My dancers were so awesome to try whatever I threw at them and always dance to their fullest and work hard.
Dancing with Ruby was so fun, even though we weren't in any of the same dancers except the entire group dances! We got to choreograph for Winter Concert together and spend 4th (Art History) and 8th period together every day. Ruby is so incredibly kind and patient. She was always willing to help everyone on DC; lending money when they forgot, going to get a prop they needed, lending hairspray, helping tie ribbons or fix costumes, never gossiping, etc. She's a gem!!!!
Thank you to everyone that came and supported Ruby and I! It meant so much to us!

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! :)

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...
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 ...
