Please cross your fingers for me -- I applied for adult-beginners' riding lessons at a local riding school, and I really hope I'll be placed in a group this fall! I used to practically live in the stables a few years ago, and I miss it.~ I'm still just a beginner when it comes to riding (I know the basics, not much else), but I love it!
Speaking of horse riding, I come to think of a really good and old friend of mine, who's awesome on the horseback. I guess it's natural, since she's been doing it since she was just a small kid, but nevertheless... Seriously, she looks as though she was born on the horseback; like the horse is just an extension of herself or something! But she's not the least haughty or snooty about it! I'm just so impressed, she's so much better than me at everything she does... had it been anyone else, I'd probably be jealous, but I've never really been envious of her. My own self-loathing migh go up a notch (I seriouslu have no talents at all, depressingly enough), but I could never NOT like her. On the contrary, I love her more than anyone else! XD I'm just glad such an awesome person is my friend. xxx
