Post Rebel Retreat






So we had a great time at the rebel retreat! Tons of student there from all over the place. We ended up going to this little improv group,"Mission Improvable", and then we had Durango Grill for dinner, and then it was off to a huge bon fire at the Arizona Strip. SO FUN!! There were a TON of people there, and even though it was chilly, we had a giant bonfire to heat it up. I still can't get over how many people were there at the fire. We did get slightly lost trying to find exactly which bonfire, luckily the girls that were with me were patient while we looked for it! But yeah! Hope everyone else had fun!! Here are some pics from it. More later!

Rebel Retreat..before.

So we are all so psyched because tonight Ambassadors are putting on the rebel retreat!! It is going to be so fun, and it is for all high school students to baisically come and live the life of a college student and get some more information on what Dixie has to offer. We are planning a lot of fun things....like i.e. going to a bon fire...we hope it doesn't rain, also to Entertainment Dixie which tonight is going to be an improv group which should be fab, and then also just playing games and having a sleep over. It is going to be so fun!! Hopefully one of you reading this will be coming down. Next blog I will have to post some pictures and tell you how it went!! Love to all! Have an A-mazing weekend.

Ahhh...the narrows...and sugarloaf!



Hey Everyone!

This week was so fun because a group of us went hiking up to the mini narrows and to the sugarloaf. I had never been up there even being down here so long in St. George, so I figured it was time to get up there and see it. One of my friends Patrick who has lived here his whole life showed me around up there...so here are some of the pictures from it. I am not gonna lie...I was slightly claustrophobic though and wasn't sure I was gonna make it outta there...but I did and am here to be alive and tell about it!! More later.

Back again!!

Well bloggers...it has been a long time since I have been able to post on here.. Unfortunately I got really sick last semester and to do a complete withdraw. I am happy to be back though now!! Dixie was seriously so awesome to help me out in so many areas and I am glad to be a full time student back in St. George. A lot of my classes I am having to take over, but I am excited for my new scuba diving class I am taking, and also I am taking a few really awesome choirs. One in the Rebel Chorus, and one is The Vocal Jazz Project. Peter Briggs is an AMAZING choir director who really knows his stuff. If you wanna get the fundamentals of singing down....he is your guy. He has done a lot of awesome stuff, including directing "The Messiah" which I went and saw here at Dixie and it was breath taking! More later!

Homecoming!

This week was homecoming and complete blast. A guy in my apartment complex Quinn took me and I had such a great time...I would recommend it to anyone. Even though a lot of people did not want to go because it was what they called kind of reliving "high school", it was so fun! Also, there was fun homecoming parade, game, rock the mall, painting of the "D" road, and also a homecoming pageant. It was so fun...like I said. I thought I would just update all on what went on with that! I will update more later! :)

Classes.....

Well, this week has been an extremely stressful one. Whoever said college was just a "party" was so wrong. I have studied my brains out to the point where I feel like everything is just mush in there and I can't tell what is what anymore. I had 5 tests in two days, and I thought I was going to die. But, I guess we buck up and make it, because now it is such a relief to be done....at least until next week when I gotta do it all over again. College is definitely not even what I expected...still fun, but A LOT more studying then I ever thought I would have to do especially my freshman year. Also I am going to homecoming this week! Saturday....that should be fun. Anyway, that's all for now!

More traveling!






Well, to finish off the post high school tour I thought I would add some pictures of the different schools. I ended up going to my very own Orem, Pleasant Grove, and Timpanogos. It was really fun to go around talking to the different schools and letting everyone know about the opportunities at Dixie. For those of you who got my number, or who are coming down anytime soon, make sure you take a tour, or call me and I will take you wherever. You have to! It will help you decide whether Dixie is right for you or not. But you have just gotta do it. Posted are some pictures of me and my friends from orem, the tour, and me and my sister....oh and my new puppy! So cute. More soon!
