HORSE BALL!!!!




horseball is the greatest game ever. the end.
At the end of every semester all the horse instructors have a big pot luck and play horseball. horse ball is basically basketball on horseback. Five players per team, and you have to ride bareback and in halters. Each team can pick a theme, my team's theme was clowns. I went to the DI and bought a huge plus size pink with pocka dot shirt. this thing is massive. you could have fit two of me in it.
my team kicked trash! first game was 4-2 and the second 6-1. but now im soo sore. the horse i rode was really bony, his lope was smooth, but ohh if i didnt sit back far enough when he stopped.....OUCH!! im still suffering from that mistake.
My friend emily was on my team and was going to ride a pony...luckily  she switched to a horse at the last minute because none of the horses liked that pony. mine tried to bite him or kick him any chance he could. Once when my team played randy's, he pulled me off my horse....cheater.... haha that was the only time i came off.

brave night

Tonight I terrified. Tonight I thought I might pass out. Tonight I sang.
and had sooo much fun!!!! I love to sing, and I wish I could just remember that and not get so nervous. I sang with Emily Bigler and Donal played the guitar for us. Emily's ward had a ward talent night and asked me to sing with her. I said yes a while ago, but I never thought it would ever happen. I ate my words tonight. I loved it, once I got up there. It helped that all of my roommates and some of my FHE brothers came. There really is nothing like being in front of people and knowing there are at least a few friendly faces out there. We sang "Leave the Pieces" by the Wreckers

Ummm okay...lets see how long this lasts


So Brittany says that blogging is easiest way to keep up with a journal and later I print it out. Sounds good to me, the only thing is I don't know if I will remember to keep up with it.
I love BYU-I!!!!! This truly is one of the greatest places on earth, and better yet I know I am supposed to be here. I live with 3 of my very best friends, and I get to ride horses twice a week, there is a temple right up the hill, I have a supportive family, the Spirit of the Lord is easily felt here, and I am dating the most amazing guy. Can I ask for anything else? The Lord has truly blessed me. :)
