 My friend Scarlet who had the most adorable British accent and became obsessed with talking to me and being my friend. We got off the old-fashioned way, with the staircase leading down to the open runway, instead of straight into the terminal. At the end of the staircase Scarlet was looking up at me laughing. WELCOME TO LONDON!
 I fell in love with these Love Bars while in Hong Kong
 The buses are just like HK! Amy and I lived in West Point together on our missions






 The Elgin Marbles! My humanities professor had me take a picture of them. So many of the things I saw are things I've studied in class! In person > Powerpoint

 Asian stuff!!!!!!!!!!
 Listening to the song of angry men....
 Made us so happy.
 Reunion with Victor!!



 Kensington Palace. I think. Despite Amy being Welsh and Victor LIVING in London, we were quite lost. hahahaha
 Harrod's. *cue Angelic aah-ing
 I also fell in love with Five Guys. So many in Utah, yet I had to go to London to try it





























































Lots of plane time on this trip. All alone. I bought some original poems from a man selling them near Shakespeare's Globe and it was exciting and somehow sentimental in a cinematic way. It's the little things that make the traveling cozy, feel safe, and fulfill that huge wanderlust hole in your heart. My first time traveling alone overseas made me feel like that hole was being filled and overflowed. So much joy, exhaustion, surprise, being humbled, talking to strangers, organizing, and love. Sometimes I was overwhelmed with how big the planet is and how many people live on it and yet Christ and Heavenly Father love them ALL perfectly.

So my parents are off to Paris with Freestone and Tizzy. Lucky ducks! My grandparents are staying with us some of the time, but a lot of babysitting and homework is in-store for me this next week and a quarter so I was kinda stressed out. I spaced all my homework and remembered at 11 pm last night that I had a 100 question biology test, 2 Honors English assignments (That included reading) and 6 pages of math. So I woke up at 6, did it, planned to do the math during lunch and got ready in about 2.7 minutes. Luckily, I had tutorial so I went to get Algebra 2 help and finished that. Yay! And my science test turned out to be good, I could use notes and a textbook. I am so relieved right now and I think Heavenly Father helped a lot today. The Epic of Gilgamesh has nothin' on me today! :) PS Have fun in Paris guys! We'll miss you but not too much, I mean You're In Paris! :)

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 ...

Happy New Year!

2014 will be a great year! It's 1:46 am right now so I will blog more tomorrow but I just can't believe it's January and the start of another brand new year! Yay for 2k14!!! On New Years Eve I went to a friends house to party! We watched Back to the Future and had treats, played games, and talked. We counted down, watched the ball drop, made fun of Miley Cyrus. There were a lot of people so it was really fun. On New Years Day we visited Nana, saw Frozen, went to Coco's and dad, mom and Ruby and I went to dinner. I'd been wanting to go to Rio Grande for awhile so we drove up to SLC. When we got there it was closed! So, change of plans, we went to Royal India in Bountiful instead. I'm so glad we did!! I love Indian food and it was delicious!! We got garlic, regular and a sweet naan and lamb sagg, coconut chicken and butter chicken and a mango lasse! Heaven. It was fun to just spend time with my parents and Ruby. They are really good about taking time to give u...
