So like I'm sitting here at 8 AM, and I really couldn't sleep anymore since I woke up at 7. Something that came out yesterday is still walking through my mind x_x
A friend of mine had a horse, but they thought it got stolen when they didnt see it walking into the grass anymore, and since there are lots of horses being stolen here lately they informed the police about it and kept on searching and spreading flyers and all.
They didnt find her anywhere and it was 5 weeks already since they saw her last time, and now yesterday her dad was cutting the grass of the pasture it was seen last time, and in the water next to it they saw a blanket floating that the horse was carrying against flies, so the guy stopped and picked it up and voila, there she was. but being it 5 weeks ago, there wasn't much left of the horse. So she wasn't stolen after all :/
Ofcourse they are happy she wasn't stolen, but still this isn't a nice ending either huh?
as for me, I am currently still assigning for Master Practitioner, thats gonna be really hard lol, but I think i can do it. I just need to start paying attention really then it should be fine. Also got a new car insurance x_X they are really expensive, but atleast the gas prizes and all don't raise here like they did in America, I heard it's really terrible there atm. Ofcourse cause of Hurricane Katrina.
getting a 200 GB HD *_* finally though i dont really need that much space, but its the only one that goes with my other hardware apparantly. My PC is still lacking stuff lately and its not reliable. Though it might take a while till it gets build in since my bro is quite busy with school and doesn't have a lot of time.
When bringing horses to the pasture today, Noa stopped on our way and got all scares of something laying in the tall grass, so i stopped and looked and it was a cute baby hedgehog ^^~ Apparantly Noa smelled it or whatever, I couldnt find the mom and didn't see other babies around but i left it behind cause when you pick it up or touch it the mom never gets back to it cause of the human smell, and next to that hedgehogs are filled with ticks and flees. I get back this afternoon to see if it's still there though, cause lots of cats and fox's are passing there and its gonna rain later on maybe
Still wondering where someone did go x_X And why not getting on once in a while, i mean I am busy too, but I can still take a little bit of time off to get online, it shouldnt be that hard :s
then again I don't live there so I don't know, but still, missing that person >.>
I hope you all have a great day
