AHHH! okay i have been riding (horses, duh) since i was in like 3rd grade. its the one thing that i am actually good at by myself. i LOVE riding!!!!!!! i would give up anything to ride!!! being that there are 4 kids in the family and we are ALWAYS on the go my parents would never get me a horse. today my mom started talking to me about my friends casey and corey from the barn. (my parents are good friends with their parents) casey got a horse about a year ago and corey is getting one. a big issue about getting one for me was the vet bills and boarding and feed etc. etc...but corey is getting one through 4-H. you "adopt" the horse through 4-H and then you have to keep it at the baptist childrens home for ONLY 50 bucks a month, convering vet bills, feed, etc. (THAT IS SO FREAKING CHEAP!!!!!!!) you get to come ride whenever, BUT you have to come work once a week with the kids that live there (they have no family or have down-syndrome) which i think would be fun. MY MOM IS VERY VERY VERY MUCH CONSIDERING GETTING ME A HORSE THROUGH 4-H! omg it would be the best thing ever. i have wanted a horse for sooo long! it sounds sorta weird, but when i ride i forget about everything and i am free from all other shit. i love it so much because i am on the horse by myself and no one is helping me, and i am truely good at it. its really the only thing that i am good at, which is sorta sad..lol. omg no one even knows how happy i am right now!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
