A Fresh Start

I guess with summer over, and school starting, I wanted to change this blog a little, too. It's no longer just for school, it's more of a personal thing now. I guess I really missed ranting on and on about nothing really, and just admiring the pretty horses on my blog. I'm sorry if I haven't posted over the summer. (I promise I'll post more often, too!) My main summer highlights are: a cruise to Alaska (built up a BIG appetite on the cruise, and got to see some awesome wildlife!), a 6-day tour of Yellowstone (I felt like I was fried from the heat), lots of volunteering at a vet clinic as well as a rabbit rescue shelter (fluffy animals to spend time with!), and horse-back riding camp! It felt really weird getting back on a horse after two years, but I really, REALLY enjoyed it. I'm going back for lessons in the fall, and hopefully I will finally learn how to jump a horse, and post pictures on it! Oh yeah, I've also taken up ballet for the first time during the summer, and I've got to admit, it felt pretty awkward in the beginning, but by the end of the lessons, I really started to like it! I've been saying constantly that I'm dreading the start of school, but today, I actually felt really happy to be back with my friends, and met a whole bunch of new ones as well!

Here are some pictures of my adventures!

We saw a pod of humpback whales on a whale sighting tour in Alaska...

Watched Old Faithful erupt in Yellowstone...

This is Stuart, from the vet clinic where I volunteer...

 
This is Zoe, from the rabbit rescue shelter that I volunteered at, but I won't have time to come back to, now that school has started....

And this is Sprite, one of the ponies I rode at the riding camp!

So I hope this Super blog made up for all the times I forgot to post, or was at least a summary of my summer! And I always end this blog with...
