So I've pretty much been blissed out in pony land for the last 3 days. Svenna has been great, I've ridden twice, despite horrific weather (including a tornado! In the PNW???). The person who delivered her on Friday forgot a halter, so loaded and unloaded her with just a rope around her neck...she is that good natured. She is super super sweet and snuggly, to the point that I occasionally have to tell her to back off. I have always coddled my horses a little bit too much and allowed them to be in my space, and I'm going to try really hard not to let that happen this time.
She is quite a bit more green than I was expecting, and a little more wiggly in the crossties, but she doesn't make me nervous at all, even when she's being kind of a butthead pony. She is not at all spooky, I rode her all over the farm today in a rare spot of sun and she was very good.
Also, cutest thing ever today, I went to get Svenna out of her field and called her, and she lifted her head and nickered to me! As if that is not enough, she came galloping over to the fence. Seriously. It was the most adorable thing I've ever seen.
Anyway, tomorrow is the first day of school (latest start ever I know) and I have organic chemistry on the brain! I've done like 60 pages of reading and taken about a bajillion notes so I'm all ready, but still very nervous.
No news on Sid from the trainer...I'm assuming that's good!
Gah so cute!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness, she is adorable!! I love fjords so much, but I think I am too tall for them. Have fun in Ochem. I took one semester of it and that was more than enough for me!
