Okay now my least favorite lesson

This is going to be a tie because i don't like centered riding or the one were i was riding Millie and i was cantering and she turned into the center and i fell off of her well lets just say both i absolutly hate riding with out stirrups and reins and well i love millie just not her attitude so i dont know what else to say about this so so long fair well and good night

MY BEST LESSON EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!<3

Okay
my best
lesson ever has
to be the one
in the winter when
we rode bareback and
i got to trot and go over a very small
jump i was so proud of myself because
i had not ridden bareback in forever and when i use to i was always
scared that i was going to fall off but when i rode Jefferson i knew that i would not fall
because i trusted myself and Jefferson because i new that he would get me trough it
well i actually have another favorite lesson it is when Sara Josie and i went on the trail down to the lake and i got my baby Jefferson and we cantered and hand galloped some of the hills and that is when i learned to keep my heels down so i would not fall off well long story short i lost one of my stirrups at a had gallop up a hill and i did not fall off so that is ny other favorite lesson

Hey guys

First thing i want to say is that i am sorry that i have not posted in a while i just got home from a long night at dance and i just got to eat so i cant wait i only have two more days untill i can ride so happy still have so much to do in so little time like tomorrow i will be leaving to go
to my dads house well that and school in the morning i hate the Amazing
Indigo she is on fall break and she got to ride today i was txting her earlier and i was kinda mad but i am over that because saturday will be here very soon
so i still sont know what we will be doing and that is killing me because i want to know like so bad
i wish we would do jumping but i dont think that is going to happen but if it does i will be so
very excited and happy because then maybe i could ride Jefferson and get some much needed
time in the saddle with my favorite horse thats all for now i will post more later

You Belong With Me

OK well You Belong With Me is like one of my favorite songs every time i hear it i want to sing and when i am in the car i will sing out loud well that's how i feel about Jefferson and Gus that the rider doesn't pick the horse the horse will pick its rider an i feel that Gus and Jefferson have picked me as one of their riders i can trust that when i am one them that i know they will get me through the obstacles that are put in front of us when i ride them it feels as if i am flying and all my troubles just kinda fall right off of my body like when we are jumping it feels as if i am soaring over the the clouds and there is no pressure on my shoulders so when ever i here you Belong with me i just think about how riding Jefferson and Gus and how it is like we are alike and act like one when really i am the rider and they are the horses but when i ride it doesn't feel like that at all its more like having trust between the horse and rider the song for me represents passion and love so people may think of there boyfriends or girlfriends i think of that to but i mostly think of the horses i ride and the funny thing is that i it comes on at the barn we all start to sing so i think we all feel the same way This is me on the Amazing Indigo and i also think that we have a special bond that also belongs with me

i am having that that same feeling again

OK guys it only Monday and i am dieing to ride and lesson are still not for another five days
and i think we are going to do something that i absolutely hate and that is centered riding which means riding with out sturrips and reins so ya thats if one of the students shows up so if he doesnt that means no centered riding yay but i dont know what we will do then because we still have a new student so i dont know and i wish it was friday like so bad so thats all for now will post mire later

my friends


these are two of my best friends in the whole wide world sara is on the left and josie is on the right i dont know what i would do with out them they are my shoulder to cry on and they will always have my back in the toughest situations that may occur

weekly lesson

Yesterday i had my weekly lesson and i was kinda mad through out the week because we were getting a new student she came and turns out that she had never riden before i was like great but it was not to bad and guys this does not leave this blog. i ended uo starting on gus and then later switched to jefferson i just now relized that i dont have any pictures of gus or jefferson really on here well here you go for all of you have been wondering who gus and jefferson are these are pictures from this weeks lesson jefferson is the grey and gus is the chestnut. i am so sore but that is probably because my instructer bumped up the amount of cantering we had to do well after that we rode back through the woods to get back to the barn as my friend called it in her blog the begining lessons well in the second lesson my friends went on a ttrail ride to the lake well it turns out that one of the girls wnded up riding jefferson and she fell and then was drug off and now she is scared of him whish is sad because he is a very good horse its just that you hold him back he will fight for his head and just want to trie to get you off of him so he can go i guess thats it for now because i am having writters block i will hopefully post more tomorrow

a little more about me



i think i waited a little too long to do this but oh well this is me and Jefferson at a summer show at my old barn well i realized that i am fourteen and i started riding when i was six so that nine years an i still cant believe that my name is Megan now that riding is part of my life again i don't now what i would do if i lost that because the friends i have at the barn i only get to see the days that we have lessons i dont
i dont know what to say about me i mean that there is so much and so little to say i am one of those girls that if you say me at school and then at the barn you would not believe its the same person at school most people would think i am a dacer or cheerleader and many people when they meet me thought the same thing but thats at school at the barn i am different i guess at school i might be faking a little and at the barn i am just myself and there is nothing to hide well more now with a younger kids there so some of the girl talk is put of then afterwards we txt and then thats when every thought we have said come out so no matter with that as my best friend sara said with the picture titled my dorks its true we all are dorks no matter what

its only wednesday

God its only Wednesday but i guess why i am hating it is because i was out of school monday and tuesday so this is the begining of the week for me and to day was hell but that was my opinion i am still dieing to ride and i still have like three days well really two because i ride on saturday i am so board i am sitting in my room after a long well an hour of dance and then eating no homework thats a good thing well not really am hate the novel i am reading in english its lord of the flies and i want to fall asleep or have some one kill me just kidding i dont knoe if i can stand another day at school the only class i like is art sorry i am babbling if i get inspired later i will poset more thats it for now

have you ever had this feeling

have you ever like ridden and as soon as you leave you want to go back and ride again well thats the feeling i am having right now and that is mostly because af that three day clinic and i dont get to ride untill this saturday i am still on fall break well not really i go back to school tomorrow and well it seems like the shortest week can seem like the longest i still dont know what we are doing saturday and i am dieing to know what we might be doing i want it to be crosscountry but i dont think we will because we where jumping at the clinic and so i dont think that will happen but i would mind if she would let us condition.
so i am dieing to get back in the saddle and to just ride and have some more fun if i had the chance and my instructor would let me i think i would be at the barn every day but i guess when you love to ride that would be all you would want to do

a bond to beat all others and you always have a shoulder to cry on

Even though jefferson is not my horse we have this bond that is strong. well how many of you have cryed your eyes out well i know i have and like what if your friends are gone and they wont answer their phone and you dont want to talk to your parents well the horses are always there for you and they can be your shoulder to cry on they may not know what you are talking about but they will still listen and not just act like it cause there or day when i have had makeup running doen my face and i have had no one to turn to well there is always the horses they dont judge you and they wont laugh at you no matter how silly or serious the situation is so what i am saying is that it does not have to be a human shoulder to cry on it can be one of your best friends and no i dont mean people i mean the horses i know that jefferson has been with me through some situations that may not seem very big to you but can be life changing either for the good or the bad well just loving a horse is one thing but haveinga bond with that horse is something completely differenti know that the horses at the barn that i have a bond with all of them and they are someone that i can tell my secrets to and that wont give up on me no matter what they will always be by your side and they will help you get through anything when you are stuck between a rock and a hard place they can help you make a decision. they can also since when you are happy or sad or depressed well they can pull you out of that sadness or depression so a bond with a horse is not just loving them and taking care of them its a very special relationship that you have with the horses all riders should have a special bond with their horses almoxt as if the horse and rider where one

3rd and finally day :(

it is so sad today was the last day of the clinic and we did crosscountry and jefferson and i rocked it after ridding we did a scavenger hunt and i was with my two best friends josie(the amazing indigo and sara the eventing belle )i love cross country because you are out in the woods and when you jump it almost feels as if you are flying above everything the scavenger hunt was fun untill we had to climb up this hugemungous hill and this is all on foot:( and since we were the last group to go that ment we had to pick up all the markers and which carrying all that stuff back was not much fun but just hanging out with my friends was great i cant wait for next saturday because that means more riding i am glad that i am still on fall break and i dont have to go back to school till wednesday and then i only have to wait for three days to ride i will write more tomorrow but till then enjoy
