lol i logged in today and...omg 1000 pageveiws! well, this weekend was a big show, and WE WENT CLEAR CROSS COUNTRY!!!!!!!!! which is a BIG deal, seeing as the last couple of times out cross country, we have had problems at the drop into water, but we didnt this time!!!!! we had some time faults, cuz control has also been an issue, so i wanted to keep him slow the first part of the course, and it worked! We were 3rd after dressage with a score of 30.0 (pretty good, for those of you who dont know the scoring system of eventing, its lowest score wins) but dropped to tenth after x-country because of the time faults...and then in stadium, the two people ahead of us dropped rails so.... WE ENDED UP IN 8th!!!! maybe after the next couple of shows we will be back to our usual streak of placing in the top 3. the water problem isnt totally out of our way, but it's certainly getting better! cant wait for the next show in two weeks!!!!

OMFG!! IM GETTING A TABLET!!! WEEE YAYNESS!!!!!!! im getting it in 2 1/2 weeks for like a $150 mark off and its 9x12 and (again) OHMIGOD!!!! i TOTALLY cant wait! and, whats more, is the first big show of the eventing season starts friday!!!!! and oh, joy, i ride dressage at 8:00 in the morning X.X also, yayy done with the project from hell aka the 8th grade project. that thing was basically a state test to see who got to go on to highschool.... needless to say i freaked and went overboard on it and got like 100% full credit on everything lol and and and....TABLET OMG!!!!

Last week was the first big show of the season...and...IT WAS SO INCREDIBLY AND AMAZINGLY FUN IN EVERY SENSE OF THE WORD!!! i cant belive i have to wait another FOUR WEEKS until the next show...i wanna go back! and do everything again!...only maybe next time, i'll lounge Undie (my horse) a bit before crosscountry, he was a bit of a "im gonna run like a dork and there's nothing you can do about it!" spazz xD and...im getting ym tablet in 8 days!!!!!!

The other night, i was out to dinner with my parents, and i looked around the resturaunt, finding that the walls were covered with paintings of horses! that was wen my mom called me over, and revealed the artist, hard at work on another piece in full view of everyone. so, of course, i stood and watched her until she finished, and then showed her my sketch book (because, of course, what els eam i supossed to do at a resturaunt? eat?) so anyway, we started talking, and she gave me her email adress and her site name. so, being me, i was on her page the same night and writing an email at midnight. the next day i got her response, questions about her site, encouragment....and an art movement. WHAT!? HERE??? so now we are planning it, thinking upi location, recruiting members, even planning the days! I'm SO excited! Plus, on top of it all, I can finally get some painting help! this is going to by amazing! and i cant wait.

one word to explain my title: school! it is soo boring right now!! like seriously all we are doing is sitting there listening to the teachers explain everything at least three times leaving no time to get a head start on hw! so ya, bored and busy out of my mind. Two symphony concerts and a retreat soming up soon, hope i have enough reeds! (i play the oboe for those of you that didnt know) and virtually nothing exciting is going on in my horse world right now. show season is over and we have about 6 months till it starts up again, behold the problem with washington! we have like no show season!

Clubs i have joined: (there is only one)
