You know, something I can't stand about stables is the use of muck buckets instead of wheelbarrows. My new barn is infamous for this. I fully understand and value the use of one or two muck buckets, in the aisle, so that you don't have to carry the manure out to the pile every time your horse poops; however, I do NOT see why muck buckets would be ( Read more... )

Today was so relaxing and unhurried. This is what I did ( Read more... )

Out of curiosity, I decided to Mapquest the distance between home and my dorm next year, and it amounts to 1185.58 miles.

I am fairly certain I am going as far West as anyone-- because I haven't yet talked to anyone who is going to California, Colorado, or other exciting western states. There probably is someone from BHS going though.

Today I had a ( Read more... )

Wisconsin is on Central Time, and I will therefore be far, far from home.

I am quite upset right now, about many things.

So, instead of finishing my English project-- essentially my last assignment for English for the year, and worth quite a few points, and I am still procrastinating-- you'd think I could hold out just a teeny bit longer before succumbing to the enticing grip of senior year-- I am bumming around and listening to the rain. I haven't heard it rain in a ( Read more... )

Greetings! I returned from the Boston area today, and had a wonderful and fun weekend.

Today I got up at 6:13 to go feed squirrels, and then went to two different banks to deposit and withdraw money, and THEN bought a cute ( Read more... )

I just finished the construction of my prom necklace, and I am quite pleased. The dress is a sort of indigo with metallic-ish beads, and I made a corresponding frazzly wire necklace. It's kind of purple, metallic, sparkly and pearlish. I am satisfied, but I fear it might conflict with the halter top on the dress. Fortunately, I thought of this, and ( Read more... )

I was just looking through Wisconsin's Animal Science courses, and I must say that I am very much excited. I would love to take things like Animal Nutrition, Veterinary Genetics, and especially Reproductive Physiology. Nothing gets me going like artificial insemination. As well, this class might prompt the use of those shoulder-high gloves, which, ( Read more... )
