Like the title said, today I had my last riding lesson. Well, there is a teeny tiny chance that I might continue with riding, but I really doubt it. Anyways, the last lesson is always the most fun. So we did some cantering, and almost galloping, but I couldn't get my horse to go fast enough....Mostly it was my fault because I was so tensed up, thinking I would fall off. Now I kinda regret it, it would be so fun to try galloping. Anyways, I cantered over poles, which almost has the same feeling as jumping. It was so...thrilling! As I expected, I didn't past Green yet, but I'm close. This is due to the fact that I ride, then stop. Then I randomnly start again. But I need to to get used to it again. Sigh. If only I could just keep riding forever. My instructor said I just needed one more round of lessons, then I'll pass! Just one more!!!!
Okee, enough with the riding. Today was the District Testing for the grade 7s, so my sister was pretty stressed about it. She was so nervous, she couldn't even sit still. Well, good luck to her. Another thing is, we finally finished Gladiator. It was so sad. So very, very sad at the end. But Mr. Sale lightened the moment by telling everyon (haha, especially the boys) that it was okay to shed some tears, and not be ashamed by it. It was really funny at the moment, because a lot of people were crying. Okay, last of all, Mr. Hurst gave us some new songs for band. (oh noes, sight reading!) But the songs were really cool, like we get to play the Simpsons! The first time we listened to it on the tape player, I was so scared becuase it sounded really fast. Of course we played it at a waaay slower speed, but it's still hard. It's really fun to try the new pieces though.
This is the longest blog post I've had in a while. Hurrah!
