i think about horses a lot

almost as much as i think about love and romance and dating boys

so when i needed to come up with an opinion poll for a school assignment, what better topic than horses, right, and then i saw this



so here's my opinion poll, should horses wear pants??? or are they beautiful enough just the way they are?

that seems so unfair!

maybe that will work. or i could just work on my natural charm and "talk" to them that way :)

[flightforfreedom]

couldn't hurt :)

[Stop being fucking adorable, Tina.]

i do plan on going to horse camp this summer, so I do need to brush up on horse body language

don't want a repeat of the first time I went back home

[flightforfreedom]

what happened the first time?

[continuousgroaning]

my frenemies showed up, which was bad enough

but the horse I got paired with hated me and we never really got to bond

which was disappointing because I guess i just expected that my love of horses would make me a natural horse whisperer or something

[flightforfreedom]

okay you might need to explain what frenemies are

and that's a shame. maybe you just didn't meet the right one?

[continuousgroaning]

friend-enemies. their names are tammy and jocelyn, they're two girls in my grade and sometimes we get along but sometimes not. we work together well but then we'll get into fights over something stupid. also, tammy likes to try getting me in trouble

i'm hoping that's all it was. I haven't tried to ride since then

[flightforfreedom]

frenemies, huh. i get the concept, i think. though they don't sound a lot like friends.

well then you definitely can't know yet. gonna have to just keep trying.

[continuousgroaning]

nah, not really. I never needed them as long as I had my siblings, anyway :)

at least this time i'll quit if it doesn't work out. I was too stubborn to do that last time

[flightforfreedom]

[Hrn. He's not sure he likes the sound of that.]

don't quit.

just keep trying until something clicks.

i have a feeling that working with horses is a little like working with droids - just gotta find the one that meshes with you, then you have a best friend for life.

[Even if he's the only one in the galaxy that would refer to his droid as his best friend.]

[continuousgroaning]

yeah, I guess i will have to do that

i wasn't allowed to pick another horse to try since this camp was a little small and didn't have many to begin with, so maybe next time will be different and i can ride another one

i know the right horse for me is out there somewhere!!!
