Today I had my Basic Riding Instruction final where I taught one of my peers (she was role-playing as a timid rider), and then she taught me. I was pretty anxious about it, but all went well and I had some really good feedback from my teacher and she told me that being a riding instructor would be a good career path for me if that's what I wanted.

I presented my research project on Glanders in Horse Science tonight, and I think I did pretty well. My presentation skills need work, but who doesn't need to work on those? The weeks are going by faster and fall semester is almost finished, and it feels good. I just love this time of year, and its hard to feel anything but happiness when I've got ( Read more... )

If I'm going to go home this weekend, there's a lot of work to do ( Read more... )

Last weekend and this weekend was incredibly busy and played with my nerves. I lost my zip drive on Wednesday and lost all my work along with it, so yesterday and today were devoted to me re-doing a lot of assignments that are due tomorrow. I finished them, but it was incredibly infuriating and tedious. I went to a horse show that was a memorial ( Read more... )

The show last night went well, I got a fourth out of ten people. I was pretty excited because I didn't think I would place at all. Naxis, the horse I was riding didn't pick up the right lead on the flat, but I guess we made it up over the jumps. I'm incredibly happy about the Alex Hartner show this weekend, Megan and I are sharing Glenn. Her mom is ( Read more... )

So I just spent five days at home with my mother for Fall Break. If you know my mom, you would know that being home can either be really good, or really not.well I thought the weekend was going okay, although incredibly boring. I helped her clean the house for a showing, I bathed the dogs, and I made sure the dishes were done and that the horse's ( Read more... )

So I'm pretty overwhelmed with my classes right now. It seems that I am always in class or in the computer lab. Lately I have gotten more work done in the last few weeks than in any other whole semester. I welcome my lessons as a break from business, and wish that I had the opportunity (or time) to ride more often. Even working at the barn twice a ( Read more... )

So I'm officially moved in, and I'm very excited about the way my room looks. I wish I had someone to visit me so I could so people. At the same time, I wouldn't want anyone to visit me because there is NOTHING for them to do. If they came during a school week I'd be going off to work and lessons and classes and leaving them alone in the room. If ( Read more... )

Okay, so I'm hanging out with a friend tonight and we're trying to decide where to go out to eat. I have no idea and I'm not really hungry. I'm supposed to call her back in ten minutes and tell her where we are going.

Decisions. Decisions.

And I still don't know.
