You should read this post because it has pictures

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...

Good bye Nutcracker

Nutcracker is over and I'm sad! It was so much fun and I made great memories. I fell on the last night during the Maid dance which was a bummer. My tray flew off my hand when I fell even with the strap on the bottom. I just pretended it was on purpose and made some hand gestures like I gasped and then walked off. Luckily it was at the end of the dance. I still had Waltz and finale and I wasn't going to let one fall make me sad or not do my best the rest of the time. Strangely afterwords I felt really calm and didn't really care until after party scene. It was kind of funny and I didn't hurt myself. The weird thing was that right before the performance I felt like I was going to trip or fall....and I did. Hahaha, well I'm just the really clumsy maid now :)  Maddie is a pro photo bomber. I just wish she'd bombed one of the bad pictures instead!  My favors for the Waltz gals  Emma being me...haha she'd be a great Maid! :) Love her  Cutie...

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...
