Hm..what to post about now..? idk, i'm just really bored haha!

Oh, so my sister is going to QUIT RIDING??? Whaat?? She's an awesome rider, one of the best at the barn and she wants to QUIT?? Well, she says its because she just got her license and her social life has faltered.

But the crazy thing is that when I went back to riding, I was soo excited that I would get to ride charmer even more. BUT..but then my sister told me if it would be ok if I ride him once every other weekend because she wanted to show him! I reluctently said oohhkay and barely got to ride him. THEN my grades started to slip and my mom grounded me from riding and my sister came to me complaining about riding saying ehhh its too much work and too draining blah blah blah..go complain to some one who cares, right? And i'm like, well you WANTED me to ride him LESS because you wanted to SHOW him! And now you want to QUIT?!?

ARE YOU FLIPPING KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW?!?!
MAKE UP YOUR MIND!

Phew, ok, i'm done

I had an awesome day at the barn today!!

I rode a barn horse named Dutch(guess what breed he is..dont know? He's a dutch warmblood haha!) who's got a HUGE stride and a lot of people say he's uncomfortable when cantering, but I got on him and my trainer said our conformation go great together! And I cantered him and he was the most comfortable horse everr so idk what the other people were talking about..he's also got a tendency of going around with his head high up in the air but I got him to frame and look pretty
And then, I got him to do flying lead changes(which is a huge deal for me cause I barely know how to get those lol!)

And then my mom was riding charmer but he started to get a little wild so she wanted me to get on him. So I worked with him and yes, he was being a little brat but I fixed him. And I did flying lead changes on him too!! Which is also a big deal because he barely knows them!

Good day today..
