A Day in the Life

....of Golda Cristine Dopp
After waking up at about 7:30 or 8:00, reading The Book of Mormon and having breakfast (and getting ready) I walk to school. It takes 10 minutes to get from my apartment to the LA building. I usually take a picture of the mountains because they are beautiful. I feel so blessed to be surrounded by such beauty and going to school amongst the majestic mountains.




Sometimes after Modern and Pointe and Technique and Orientation to Dance (from 9:30-1:00 or 2:15) Sierra and I go to the library for some soup, or if we're feeling splurgy, a cinnamon role

Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays are my long days-school until 5 pm. Wednesday I usually volunteer at Timpanogos Elementary and I LOVE it! I go to the after school program that focuses on math and science, and the kids are all kindergarten to second grade. Today one of the little boys asked me if I was married. ha! They are seriously hilarious
When I get back to the apartment I eat dinner, do homework and maybe relax by reading blogs, planning out my life or watching Friends. I usually have a grilled cheese or cereal for dinner. If I'm lucky, Gentry will suggest going to get ice cream and we'll go to In N Out where I will indulge in a cheeseburger (Jennie-I don't even split it with her!)
I have Biology from 7-8:15 on Tues and Thurs, which isn't my favorite class or subject. We'll leave it at that.
Then I finish up homework, write a To Do list, talk to my roommates until late into the night
In my old room, I always decorated the dresser and my desk and nightstands in accordance to the holiday or my mood. I still do it, but on a minimalist scale :)




Randomly starting a Pinterest project at 11 pm is not a rare occurrence either

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 ...

Senior Flute Recital

*(I'm catching up)* November 21st Another rite of passage as my mom would say! Senior Flute recital! I had probably been practicing and preparing the repertoire for almost two years, not to mention the 8 years before that which allowed me to get to the level required to play the pieces. Cindy told me a Senior Recital wasn't required, but encouraged. It was good practice for auditions, stress and pressure management :) ;) and it was a good motivator to practice. I'm so glad I did it, even if it did seem overwhelming at times. I really started to love the flute during the months leading up to the recital. It was exciting to have something to work for and know that soon I could show what I'd been doing for so many years. I worked hard, but wasn't always the most dedicated student. Priorities often put flute behind school and ballet. Dance is my true passion and has been for so many years, but music has helped with dance and I'm thankful for the balance fl...

Italia

Ciao! We are in Italy! We woke up at four and went to the airport. We cut it close, which means we just didn't have two hours to waste in the terminal;) the flight was so short! Luckily everything with our bags worked out which had been a little worrying since we took EasyJet. We arrived at the Argenti's and almost immediately left to take a train to Venice. Another American family is here staying nearby who are friends so they also came to Venice. It was weird to speak English to someone besides Ruby! Venice was amazing! It's so pretty and colorful. It was very hot and kind of crowded so we didn't stay in touristy parts the whole time. The water is turquoise and the buildings are intricate and charming. It's kind of like Paris but sassy. If that makes sense. We got yummy pizza and gelato. I told the dad my and Ruby 's order for gelato and he thought it was just mine. So I got two scoops! So much ice cream! Italian is so beautiful and basically a combination of...
