Headlights pointed at the dawn.

I'm a 24 25 year old student and this blog is about my adventures as I go back to college and do my best to love each day.

She rides the shit

i rode Ludwig in my lesson this morning, he's a good boy- and VERY adjustable- I think Heather must like me, because I always have a really good horse for whatever we're working on that day. Today we were working on stride length and distances... Luddy was good at it, he's such a good boy. And he lives near Griffin so I gave him some treats :D But yeah, it was a fun lesson... lots of work but enjoyable :)

Anyway, after the lesson, Eddie came out of his office- he had been watching from in there. And I was off of Ludwig filling out some form for Heather, and Eddie came up and started patting Ludwig, and Heather came over, and it went like this...
Eddie: I told ibby (he calls me "ibby", he has nicknames for everyone, but anyway)... I told ibby that Alph was her new best friend... she rode the shit out of him the other week.
Heather: She rides the shit out of every horse!

Which, okay. Weird conversation to take as a compliment- but it WAS positive even though my riding and shit were used in the same sentence... haha... but it made me feel a lot better about my lessons two weeks ago. And it was nice of Heather to say that I can ride every horse.

I don't know, it just kind of made my morning :)

Nutrition is hardcore shit, man. I'm struggling. I've got like two hours of homework for that class, i'm not lying.
Aaaaand I've got two tests back-to-back tomorrow that I will be crucially studying for tonight, and a paper due thursday in English. Only 5 pages, but still more shit that I don't have time to do.

Ugggggh. I've got stress coming out of my ears and all I want to do is listen to Fall Out Boy all day long and NOT do work. I keep telling myself that its only three weeks left... two weeks of class, and then a week of finals. But really, the horse show management final is going to be next wednesday, and the conformation final is my project, and heather's final is next thursday.
so that's really just nutrition, english and math that i have to worry about. aaaand i'm really not concerned with english and math. so basically, its just this week and next that are going to stress the fuck out of me- the weeks actually leading up to exams- then i'll be dooooooone.
