About Me

So you want to know more about me? Well for one thing my names Lene. I'm a thirteen year old girl living in the United States of America. My favorite animals are horses, cats, dogs, and humans. My favourite colours are blue, green, and brown.
My goals for next year are as followed:

1.) Qualify for Indoors
2.) Qualify for Capital Challenge
3.) Qualify for Devon
4.) Win a total of ten blue ribbons in the Younger Children's
5.) Improve my ridding skills

I have been ponies since I was nine years old. Sadly I outgrew ponies in May of 2007. I started to ride horses in August of 2007 and it was a challenge for me. The first several horses I rode either threw me off or ran away with me. I've been "desensitized" to that now as my trainer puts it. I started jumping horses two months ago and have showed in the Limit division on both Shania (Strictly Business) and Rose (Autumn Rose). I qualified for Limit Finals this year and went to it yesterday. I was very upset with how I rode, but in perspective it could have been worse. I ended up placing third on Autumn Rose, this was our second time showing together and I had never been in a work off before so I guess I did fairly well in perspective. One thing you should know about me is I have very high expectations for myself and when I let myself down I get very upset. Well as of January 1st, 2007 I will start blogging my lessons. Hopefully I'll get some feedback from you all. Thanks for reading my blog! Please leave comments!
