Riding yesterday.


My lesson was awesome! I rode a horse named Red, who loves to go fast. Most horses i've ridden like to go slow. So that was a little difficult. So a lot of half-halts were used. My equitation was extremely bad. I know it. Also my muscles really aren't there haha. Also right now, i'm not that confident in the saddle, so the saying "Fearless in the irons" does not apply to me right now. But anyway, Linnea said she'll ease me back into it. It was really hot yesterday, so I hosed off Red afterward. He's sooo cute when he gets hosed off! = ) Linnea had to help me with a lot though, with my arm it's not like I can do that much for a while anyway. I have to get surgery = (

Sadly No riding today.


Well...me typing right now means I did not die today. There were really bad thunderstorms so we couldn't go out on the trail. I did meet the horse I would have ridden though. His name is Red. He doesn't like ANYONE near his stall but once he's outside of it he's fine. Linnea said that he's really fun to ride. Also my trainer brought her horse, Moonshine! I've missed him. He was one of my four-legged partners in crime. *I had many* But anyway, Linnea asked if I was free any day this week after school to come ride. SO i'm going for a lesson on Thursday. : ) It turns out I forgot to tell Linnea that I was riding bareback on my friends horse when I was bucked off... She was not happy with me at that moment. She held her arm to my forehead and i was like "This is NOT a V8 commercial!" I thought she was gonna pop me in the head. SHe was like "I was just checking to see if you were sick!" (She thinks i'm weird anyway) But yeah it was the second day Count had been in NC and Liz wouldn't let me use my saddle so I had to get on bareback. Come to find out Count is TERRIFIED of a car driving slowly by. He bucked me off as soon as i got on. The pic is of me riding Count when we went to try him out. Had to drive 3 hours to go see him. Sooooo boring. ARggg. Oh well thats all i have to say.

School Next week

Sadly, school starts next week. I won't have much time to be online or ride : / . I will try to get on as much as I can. It's junior year this year. Ahhhh! So to get the year to somewhat of a good start, i'm going trail riding with my old/new instructor. Don't ask about the old/ new part, it's a long story that is really involved, to say the least. Anyway with school, I got my schedule recently.
It is as follows.

*1st Semester*

1st Period: Physical Science
2nd Period: Animal Science 2
3rd Period: US History
4th Period: Algebra 2

*2nd Semester*

1st Period: Biotech & Agriscience Research
2nd Period: English 3
3rd Period: Spanish 2
4th Period: Film Critique

So first semester will be harder for me than 2nd semester.
Anybody notice that i'm taking 3 science courses this year?
So anyway....i might post tomorrow. Depends on my day, meaning if i don't get killed by a horse.

News!

Well here is some news for everyone. Tomorrow I go to the doctor to see about my wrist. Pray that it's not surjury! And also on Twitter you may follow me. My screenname on there is Huntrjumprgurl .
So follow me on there. Another person you may want to follow is Jessica Burkhart, the author of the Canterwood Crest series. her screenname is JessicaBurkhart.


Now I know this doesn't deal with horses at all but I can't wait for New Moon to come out! It looks awesome! I just sw a new trailer yesterday and it shows Dakota Fanning as Jane, so looks soo creepy. Almost what I imagined Jane as. But the only thing was, I thought Jane was a brunette....oh well. And they started filming Eclipse yesterday!! Yay. Although I think Summit needs to get there ego checked. Rachelle was the perfect Victoria and they fired her cause she'd miss 10 days of rehersal. All she really would do is fight. But whatever. Summit will get it one day...wait i think they already did. With putting that trailer in the Bandslam previews. That movie didn't do so well in the boxoffice. It just got leaked on the internet anyway so i don't see why they even bother. Thats pretty much all my ranthing anyway.

Sorry I haven't been updating!

I'm soo sorry guys. THings have been hectic lately. I haven't ridden since April/May and tons of doctors appointments and end of term. Now school starts in a few weeks! I'll be a junior this year :P I may or may not have to have surjury. We don't know yet. We'll hopefully know on the 19th. THats when I go to the doctor next. I got an invitation yesterday to be a student ambassador next summer and it means going to EUROPE!!!! Yay! I might be going to Italy, Sicily, and Greece! The trip is for 19 days. Also family wants my family to come visit them in Canada. So my show season next year will be scarce/if i get to show @ all! I'm actually in the process of trying to get a horse. So that will be interesting. I am interested in a 16.1hh Black QH mare named Mocha. : ) Trained both english and western I believe. I only ride english. Well... I ride both but i have the equipment to ride English. It's my preference. I do ride bareback too.
