oh man i had such a great day.....
went horse riding with some college peeps... its awesome! love it tonnes.... im loving horses now...they are such beautiful creatures although they stink.... haha and oh man when they pissed and shit...oh man....its bad...but they are still gorgeous....
i found my prince charming(bai2 ma3 wang2 zi3---get it get it?) its name is Larry...and its literally a white horse... so proud of myself...i got the only white horse they have...after fighting with Estelle over it....haha....
so anyway my horsey's name is Larry...its an old horse but its a damn smart horse...and its a poor little darling....... the other horses were racist i tell u! cos Larry's the only white one ard..they keep trying to bite it and stuff and once one of the other horses bit me by accident...i still have the mark on my pants...and boy it hurts like mad
anyway it was so awesome...i was a lil scared at first cos it was so high and everything but boy after u get the hang of it it wonderful...and we get to gallop up the hills.... which is so nice...its beautiful....and then when we were heading back....the sun was sitting behind the mountains and we were facing it...so we get to like gallop towards it...it was beautiful....man....
but its painful afterwards..i have a bruise on my calf now due to friction against the straddle.... and yeah when its galloping...its not a very comfortable ride...so u kinda get a sore on ur ass... u'll have to do a stand...sorta to deduce the bounce which wasnt as easy it sounds...and u have to hold on to the saddle tight!!! real tight..... but it was worth it.... amazing...i wanna go again soon! im in love with larry!
thanks to alister for driving us up there and chelsea for organizing it......
i'll have the bruise on my calf, the bite mark on my thigh and a sore ass to remember this for at least a week......

"One Art"
The art of losing isn't hard to master;
So many things seem filled with the intent
To be lost that their loss is no disaster.
Lose something every day. Accept the fluster
of lost keys, the hour badlly spent
The art of losing isn't hard to master.
Then practice losing farther, losing faster:
places, and names, and where it was you meant
to travel. None of these will bring disaster.
I lost my mother's watch. And look! my last, or
next-to-last, of three loved houses went.
The art of losing isn't hard to master.
I lost two cities, lovely ones. And, vaster,
some realms I owne, two rivers, a continent.
I miss them, but it wasn't a disaster.
-Even losing you (the joking voice, a gesture
I love) I shan't have lied. It's evident
the art of losing's not too hard to master
though it may look like (Write it!) like disaster.
-Elizabeth Bishop
