Who here likes rap music? I for one hate it, but while riding in the car with my bro one time I found one song I fell in love with. It is actually intelegent, well written, and it isnt just throwing words around. It dousnt have a single cuss word or anything in it, and after waching their music video, I finally understood what it ment. It was about two boys who played together as children, and their paths spit. One follows the path of a man enjoying life and helping others, the other follows the ambition path of a businessman who gloated in his brilliance. Finally the second boy rose to become present of the nation, and america became corrupt, and the first boy had to stand up and defend his nation and his fellow citizens. In the end he died, and there is a brief memory of when they were kids. I think it was a very brilliant song, and its music is not loud and crude. I listened to some of the bands other sings and none of them were half as good, but anyways here is the video.

So anyays, I am in my online class, doing Geometry, and its break time. I am super excited for Indy because he decided that his New Years present to me was to start jumping again for me. (yes my horse gave me a present ) so ya, I'm hoping and praying that I can do Hunters with Indy next year instead of Jumpers with Zack...suddenly doing jumpers isnt quite so important anymore. If he still wont jump jumps with boxes and gates in front of them, than I guess I will have to ride zack, but on Saturday he jumped 2' 9" so I am VERY proud of him! I rode him 3 times last week (every time I rode I had a choice between him and zack and I think I surprised my trainers by choosing Indy every time ) Indy is coming back and I just cant beleive it! as you can tell I am pretty much freakin out right now because I honestly thought he would have an add in the sale papers this spring. What I love the most tho is that he is doing it for me! not other students or trainers, but I am the one that helped gain his trust. I am the one that he can trust to take him from one end of the arena to the other safely. Im sure he would do it with James or Lisi (they are my trainers) but he is doing it for ME! and that makes me love him all the more. I have always been selfish with my horses (it almost lost me a friend once) because I never have wanted to share a horse. Thats why a few years ago I always had an ache in my heart that I didnt have a horse of my own. Indy has actually given me that feeling of selectivness. Its like he knows who I am, and he would do things for me that he wouldnt for other people. When I ride him, he puts his heart into what he is doing, and he tries his hardest. But, that bond did not happen overnight. I spent months with him, trying to get him used to certain things before he started responding. And now look at the product! He is finally getting over his fear of jumping! He doesnt even hesitate anymore over even simple jumps, much less high jumps like he used to! Well, I must go, lol, I think I have written to much! Now you all know how I truley feel about my little boy (or Hellboy as his nickname at the barn is )
