Lagoon Day

I went on this and LIVEDDDDD












This Lagoon Day was a little different......I went on the rollercoasters!! I am usually a huge scaredy-cat, but I decided it was kind of now or never, and I had a lot of positive encouragement. Like my six-year-old brother going on the rides haha-good motivation!
 I went on the White Rollercoaster, Colossus, Wicked, and the new one Cannibal! I still can't believe I did. I told myself when it was being built that I'd NEVER go on it, EVER. But there was a cute, tiny little girl in line that said it was her favorite ride, and her dad also was very convincing in the ride's fun-factor and smoothness. Plus he was wearing a Superman shirt, so I had to trust him right? I'm so glad I took the kid's advice and went-it was so much fun!! Afterward she gave me a high five :)

Jeremy will be working in Arizona during my farewell, so this was the last time seeing him before I leave for a year and a half! My first goodbye! I got a little teary-eyed
Grandma being escorted out ;) We were the last ones to leave!




With my new found bravery, I wanted to go on Wicked again (this time opening my eyes) and so Jeff came with me. It's not often I get one-on-one uncle time so it was fun to talk in line together and hear all of Jeff's mission stories in Mexico. (Plus a few business India trips)  I HAVE THE BEST UNCLES!
Lex, Jackson and Juvol. Juvol was quite the support on Cannibal. His sarcastic comments definitely made me less nervous ;)

I'm in front of a Chinese ride and going to live in China soon, so the pose was necessary
This peacock had us all in awe!
A few years ago, seven to be exact, all the grandkids took a Wild West picture. At the time, these six cuties weren't born, so they finally got their big chance. It turned out deadly in its adorableness!

First day of college

Man, the first day was amazing! I don't have class until 9:30, then I walked over (super easy, short walk) and found my modern class easily. We went over questions and syllabus today so no dancing. I really love the faculty and I'm so glad I got to go to workshops here in high school so I'm a little familiar with the program. Then I had technique 2, and we did one across the floor. The two teachers said "okay, we have some people we want to move up to Tech 3 right now...Golda..." I was so happy! Placement happens throughout the week, but I was so happy to get moved up right away! So now I'm in pointe 3 too. I feel so grateful to be able to dance 9:30 to 2:30 every.day. !!!! I didn't get into my first institute class, so I read all the emails from my missionary friends. Mondays are a whole lot better with those! :) My colloquium class was good, then I met up with my roommate who was hanging out with 2 RMs. We went to play ping pong before another Freshman...

A brief testimony

Excerpt from an email to a missionary friend:  I went to Young Women in Excellence last night and Ruby and Ari spoke. It was super neat because I was in charge of New Beginnings back in March and the themes of both nights were the same: Embark. Back in March I still didn't know what school I was going to, whether I'd serve a mission at 19, etc etc. And now, I kind of have embarked. I'm living on my own, I went to Europe for 6 weeks since then, I'm no longer in Young Womens, I'm at college and getting ready for a mission! It was a really good thing to think about, remember and analyze whether or not I'm letting Heavenly Father steer the course of my life. There are some stormy seas in life, but I am so thankful that I have a testimony that I know I can rely on and that Heavenly Father will work with and strengthen. Even if strengthening my testimony means more trials, I feel more peace and comfort than I ever have because I have come to see that God really...
