"You used to shine so bright, but I watched all of it fade"

holaaaa! :1 <<<(really interesting smiley thing? idk. i like it.)

Lesson today on Gino! He was okay...but kind of interesting. He just wasn't really "himself". He's changed A LOT since when I started riding him....and not all in a good way.

You knowww...sometimes I just pick a random song quote. This one actually means something.

He used to be sooo great. He acted up sometimes, but he was really willing and a really fun ride. Now...he's not. He has his ears pinned the whole time and just...i don't know. He's just not the same anymore.

Yeah, he's gotten a lot quieter and does little kid lessons now. But I liked him because he was exciting! And fun! And now he's like...blah. He just kinda plops around the ring. And then once you get him moving he takes off. I just don't really like him that much anymore.

So show Friday. Hopefully convincing mi padre to take me to the barn on Tuesday? uhmyeah I kinda forgot to sign up. So I have to go do that. Murphy/Splash/(Gino/Hank?) Not sure which one for my 3rd choice.

IF I DO WELL IN THIS I COULD POSSIBLY BE CHAMPION FOR THE SERIESSSS XD

"Heaven can wait up high in the sky, it's you and I"

SOOOO!

I rode tuesday night! My original plan was to ride Hank because I really wanted to just ride bareback...but he's being leased. so I couldn't ride him.So I rode Aragon! He was realllllyyy good. We worked on our dressage test and some transitions and stuff. Then I got on him bareback :P He's SUPERR bony. It was....painful. haha

Friday I rode Aragon. We got 4th out of 9. Blah. I rode really crappily. And we had a really messed up warm-up. So yeah :(

SATURDAY! really interesting lesson with Murphy. He was AWESOME. We jumped really wide oxers and then at the end we jumped bareback. SO MUCH FUN XD

I'm probably not riding at all this week besides saturday. possibly tuesday/thursday/friday? ONE of those. There's a ton of people coming to my house for Thanksgiving. They'll probably want to go to the barn...so maybe I'll end up riding?

"But what do you say to taking chances, what do you say to jumping off the edge"

Hola chicos :)

Jumping show two fridays ago? I rode Aragon. I've never actually jumped a course on him...? And since he's really leggy and thin it's really..."different" to jump him. We managed 5th out of 11.He was really good...but just "different".

Lesson saturday on Tex :) I convinced my instructor to take us on a trail ride. BEST. LESSON. EVER. We had sooooo much fun XD

Then yesterday lessons were cancelled in the afternoon but my friends and I were out there and wanted to ride at 11:30 anyway. I wanted to ride Aragon but he had a lesson at 11:00 so I couldn't....I asked the lady who was filling in who I should ride and she said that Hank was being a brat for his 10:00 and I should get on him and beat him up :P

I warmed him up and then my friend got on him and did a bunch on transitions and changes and stuff. Then I got back on him and did some more transitions and changes and stuff :P Then bareback. Just to walk out.

Tuesday I'm riding, hopefully Aragon but if not then either Splash or Hank.

So I really haven't posted in a while.

The weekend after my last post I was sick. I basially begged my parents to let me show....and it payed off :) Aragon and I won by 1/2 of a point :) I love love love himm!!

Then Saturday and Sunday I slept. And watched Project Runway re-runs. And episodes of Glee online. I was reallllyyy sad I couldn't ride :( My lesson jumped bareback and played games bareback and such. AND I MISSED IT. I've been wanting to have a bareback lesson FOREVER. :(

Then lesson on Murphy last weekend. UGH. My normal trainer was gone, so the person who teaches on Sundays taught....and she's really...interesting? Yeah. We jumped. No hands and no sturrups stuff. Then a fun course :P

Show Friday with either Splash Murph or Aragon. Probably Murphy.

Aragonnn!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBsp9Jc4bVo
