Yay! Finals are over!


Wow, can I just say this semester has been pretty intense to say the least. With ACDFA, Synergy's concert and all my classes, it's been jam-packed, but I have loved all of it too! Right now, I'm just waiting to go to my last final, which is my ballet 3 class. It isn't really a final, we're just meeting and getting some evaluations back AND we'll be dancing just for FUN! Yay! Haha! I haven't had a dance class for about five days now and it's killing me! Haha. I feel so out of shape already.
Although, I have to tell you about my new love for swimming! Since I have had pateller tendonitis for way too long, due to overuse and too much running, it's not getting better at the moment, so I am trying to be nice to my body and swim instead of run! Now, swimming laps has always been pretty difficult for me so I asked my friend, Devon, to help me learn the proper technique. She came and watched me swim-haha that was a funny sight since I was making it way more difficult than necessary, and she taught me some great things that have really been helping me a lot! I love that girl. I've only been able to go to the pool about twice a week because I currently don't have a pass and it gets expensive after a while. Although, Lindon is getting a new pool that I am praying will have lap lanes for me to use. I love being outside so I would much rather have a pass there or at the scera pool. So I went swimming yesterday and it started off kind of poorly, but then when i started to feel more relaxed I did better. (I swear it is all mental!) Once I started feeling more confortable, the best thing happened to me. Normally I'm the slow one in the lap lane, shared by about 3 people at time. BUT yesterday I was doing so well that I caught up to someone and I had to slow done and let them get ahead of me! That sounds stupid, but I was rather proud of myself! :) So if anyone wants to join me, you're more than welcome! I am however, still a bit slow, meaning I take tiny breaks inbetween each lap because I'm still getting used to the breathing part (Which is kinda important, haha).
So I've set a lot of goals for this summer and am still working on setting more. Here is a list of some things that I would like to accomplish:
1. Finish all books I began reading, but have never finished.
2. Finish Book of Mormon
3. Do well in my summer classes.
4. Get my knee better
5. Get fabulous at swimming!

12. Go to 7 Peaks water park! (I have a pass if anyone wants to go with me)
13. Write in my journal more
14. Get somewhat of a tan (sometimes this is a lost cause :P haha)
15. Spend more time with my sistas!
16. Attend more social events, besides just dance social events
