Wow, So...
Yes, it's been a while. I haven't really had time to sit down and write anything, I've been so busy! But that's good! First off, to make Shannon (and possible others) happy, here's my address (it's the same as last year, and it won't change ever unless I move off-campus)
Box 2601, Vassar College
124 Raymond Avenue
Poughkeepsie, NY 12604
So, yes. Well, I've had an exciting week! I finally found a place to take dressage lessons, and it's only 26 minutes away from Vassar, so that's AWESOME! YAY! I have my first one Wednesday morning, whee! Then, yesterday, I had my first day of field work. It's SO wonderful! The animals are all amazing and the people are great and I'm really excited! I got to just dive right in helping them with a brand new draft horse they just got who is really nervous and skittish and stuff. They found I had horse experience and were like "Okay, you take care of him!" Haha...it was awesome. He's super sweet and has a bunch of problems, but he's great. There are pigs and sheep and goats and chickens and roosters and ducks and horses and cows and it's fantastic! WAHOO! Hehehe...
Today Katherine, Sarah, and I went to Mother Earth's 28th anniversary sale (everything was 20% off, woot!) and we entered raffles to win stuff, and I won a gift basket! YES! I never win anything, so that was super cool! The only problem is that I won it just as we were checking out, so I had already bought a bunch of stuff, and now I have more food than I know what to do with! Ah well, we'll probably have a movie night tonight and end up eating a bunch of it.
I'd love to say more, but I've got work to do and I've been procrastinating for a while...so...until next time!
