Hey! I'm back! Since I've got my computer I've kinda been making a day log on it, I think I'll just copy and paste it here so everyone can catch up on what I've been doing and then start with my regular entries. Enjoy!
Day 1
This year I am living with my Grandparents in Ottawa. To be honest...I'm scared. I guess thats the price I have to pay to follow my dreams, right? I mean this is what I want. I feel so alone, I don't think that it will last though, when school starts and all. I have another horse show that is on the 26th of September. It seems so far away. Maybe when I get to the barn I will feel better and be more at home here without my parents. I have a meeting tomorrow at the school with the Vice Principal. I wish that I could go the barn today, I guess that won't happen though. I couldn't get ahold of Anne Benoit today. She is the girl that will drive me some of the time. I think what I need right now is a friend that lives around where I do, Jill is moving back from her summer home soon, so that will be cool. Chris lives down the road but he is gone to Saskatchewan, so that doesn't really work for me. Oh well, I'll make more new friends. On the other hand this is what I wanted. I'm going to have a productive year and make the most of everything that challenges me.
Elle...!
Day 2
Feeling much better today! I went to the school! It was really cool! I can't wait to start classes their seems to be so much more opurtunity in this new world I've entered! I think I am going to wear my new pink cord skirt and my brown and pink top on the first day of school, but if its cold I'm going to wear my Ralph Lauren jeans and the same top. I only have to go for a half day on the first day which is nice because I will get to meet everyone. The courses I choose to take part in are Spanish, Gym, and Wood Working. It should be interesting. I am only taking Spanish, English, Math and Canadian History in my first symester though. I don't really want to rely on Chris too much cause I don't know how reliable he is. I'll be ok on my own though. I've started writing my speech on heroism for Anne Delbrooke already. The first place prize is something like $1500 US! I just have to win, well I'm going to try at least. I think my speech is pretty good so far. Well I'll just go continue it now!
Day 3
Well, I'm back again! Today I went to the farm. I was a little dissapointed because Steele has been put out into the back 40 acres. I guess its ok, but it just means that he will get fat...and that I have to walk quite a ways to get him :(..oh well I know it won't be for long amd then he'll be indoors! :) I washed Gramma's car today. It was fun. I'm a bit bored though as you can see..why else would I be writing this if I wasn't. Tommorow I go to the farm again at 2:00. I talked to Fran the other night. She wants me to take my little Kilamanjaro horse right away. I don't know if Mom and Dad are up to that..I don't know if I am either. We'll see..anyways I think I'll go for a bike ride.
Day 4
I'm Going to the Farm soon. I got my fish today..I think I'm going to call him Moby? Hmm, maybe. Anyways Anne is coming soon so I'll finish later. Ok, so I'm back from the farm. I'm pretty beat out. It ended up taking from 2:30 - 4:00 to get my horse. Well anyways I caught him and then I had a really long hard flat lesson with Mrs.Laf. The lesson was good, it was afterwards that she was mean to me though, I think she likes to embarass me in front of people..:S its not fun, I actually almost cried..oh well.
Anyways I should go. ( Only 1 day til the internet!! )
Day 5
I don't have much to say about today other then the fact that I got locked out of the house! Grandma didn't seem to think it was that big of a deal even if I was hot, tired, hungry, and out there for 3 and a half hours. Its alright though, they shouldn't really have to worry about me. Tonight Aiako? is coming for dinner. I have nothing else to say..except Internet tomorrow!!! :D
And so that brings us to today where I have the Internet and am updating my online Diary! Steele is now officially Indoors and I have 2 shows left in this season, which are NCHTA points qualifiers so I will keep my Rank. I am second overall in Ontario! Its sweet stuff! Money Money! haha!
Anyways I should go!
Chill!
