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!

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...
