Today after ballet Sierra and I went to Provo to get some pizza and see what Downtown Provo was like. We got an XL because it was half off and we were starving. Plus, when you're a college student, leftovers are amazing. Downtown Provo is so cute and fun! We went into the Covey Center where we'll be performing in a few weeks (first Nutcracker rehearsal is tomorrow!!!!) Aah I'm so excited! I loved Arabian when I did it at Clytie's and now I get to do it on pointe!
After looking in an adorable bookshop and super duper adorable boho chic, modern floral and gift shop, we got an old-fashioned Coke and sipped it at an outside table. It's feeling like fall and I can't get enough of it! Autumn is my favorite time of year, but it seems to slip by so fast! The leaves change and fall so quickly, and Halloween comes right after school starts I swear! I'm just trying to bask in the pumpkin spiced sunshine for as long as possible! My daily walks to school are some of my favorite minutes of the day. The mountains down here are seriously beautiful and majestic. And I love going to campus, I get to dance for hours, see friends and think to myself This is it. I made it! I'm in college and I'm so lucky to be here!
Of course it isn't all sunshine and rainbows and lollipops. Biology is kicking my rear, Ancient Legacies doesn't really interest me and I am extremly poor. However, I have so much to be thankful for, and way more good things! Plus, I have my amazing roommates who I can talk to and an amazing Biology TA who gives me one-on-one study sessions and Honors advisors who truly care about me. 
The hardest thing right now is honestly going to bed! I firmly believe our apartment is a time continuum, it goes from 8 pm to 12 pm. I love talking to my roommates and all of a sudden it's 1 am. 
Sierraaaaaaa!

The Help by Kathryn Stockett The Help is a great book for young adults and mature teenagers. It is education, funny and insightful. It is 444 pages, but a definite page turner. I rated it 5-stars because it is such a great book. It is basically about how unfairly African-Americans were treated in the 1950s and 60s. It changes perspective about every chapter, but it's fairly easy to follow along. It is from the point of view of 3 women from Jackson, Mississippi in the 1960's. Aibileen, Minny and Miss Skeeter are the narrators. I thought it was unique that it had more than one narrator and it allowed you to understand the story much better. Aibileen (my favorite character) is a black women who is "the Help" to Miss Leefolt. She is kind, wise and smart. Throughout the story she develops a strong bond between Miss Leefolt's little girl, Mae Mobley. Miss Leefolt is very strict and rather  oblivious to Mae Mobley. She doesn't really know how to raise her, so Aibil...

On the seventh day of Christmas

December gave to me....early out from school! Davis made their goal of getting $6,500 in 5 minutes during our "Dash for Cash" and earned a 'Christmas Officer Talent Show Assembly'. Otherwise known as 'Go Home After Four Shortened Class Periods.' So we got out at about 11:45 and Emily, Amy, Ruby, Emily M and I went to Fiiz and Bowman's to get stuff for friend gifts. I got some Lindt truffles. We went to Emily's for lunch, then Emily and I went to Farmington Station for a successful holiday shopping trip. Then we went and got her little sisters; Christina and Ellie, and I got Ptolemy and we went to Alexander's Bad Day at Kaysville Theatre. My mom ended up going too and taking Xanthe and Tizzy, who we hadn't had room for in Emily's car. It was such a cute movie! Then I took Ari and her best friend Ellison to Yogotogo. They're such cute girls. It's funny to hear their Junior High stories/experiences/slang. Oh those good ole' awkw...
