Day 07- Your favorite ribbon won at a show and why

Day 04- A ride that impacted your life
i would say my final exam on tucker last year at the end of fall semester. i had so much trouble with him and that ride i was finally in sync with him completely. ironically, it was the last ride i had on him before he wasn’t mine anymore. he taught me so much, he was the best thing that school could’ve done for me. in riding him i learned that horses like him are what i love riding...

because i know you all care..
alfie might not be staying at school, someone else has been riding him which fucking sucks and i wanna cry about it like a 12 year old little girl who’s experiencing her first break up and thinks the whole world is ending.
