WHAT SCARES ME!!!

Have you ever been around horses that suddenly have there natural instincts kick in? Have you been thrown off a horse by natural instinct? Have you ever been bitten from a horse that thought you were a predator??

The first thing that I m scared of is being dragged. I would hate to be dragged, because that way you can die and that would not be fun. I have never been drug from a horse and I hope I never will. I have seen people being drug not in person, but movies and book that have pictures. I have also seen the aftermath from being dragged from movies and such and that was the worse thing that I have ever seen. I hope that I will never see anther person or a relative that has been drugged.

Anther thing that scares me is being buck off from a horse. I have been bucked from a horse and that was the scariest thing ever! I went over his head and landed on my back, thankfully I automatically rolled to the fence that was near me and he missed me buy a foot or two. My trainer went and got the horse first and then came back to me. My mom came jogging into and ask me if I was okay. I got up and walk around a little and then got back on. I totally do not blame my trainer because that was a small arena at where I was at, and the horse could have easily come back and hurt me, by accident of course. That in the horse world is nothing compared to other accidents, there is either really bad or okay like me there is no in the middle. So I am ssoo thankful that I was in the okay category. I don’t blame the horse at all even if he did hurt me badly I would never blame the horse cause that was the horses natural instinct, to run and get this human off of me!

The last thing that I am scared of is a horse biting me. I have been bitten. When I was at my grandparent’s house they had foals and mares (girl horses that are over 3 yrs. Old) I wanted to pet the foal but the foal kept moving away. So the foal was lying down and so I laid down next to the foal and the mare didn’t like that so she came over and bit me. Horses have very blunt teeth for grazing on grass and so when the horse bit me that was the bluntest feel I have ever had! I cried a little and I put ice on the bruise that was from my shoulders to my elbow. In about 10min. my grandpa made me come and help build fences. I think that it was all blue there and it was black the next day, and it was numb when I was helping my grandpa with fences, so it didn’t really hurt. Later that day my grandpa explain to me that the horse saw me as a predator instead of a person, which I don’t blame the horse at all, cause coughers crawl on the ground so the horse saw me as a cougher. Once again natural instincts kick in to save her foal (1 yr. horses or younger).

All in all you have to very careful around horses. Never blame horses for your misfortunate incident, cause it is natural instincts just like when we humans flinch at a ball being thrown over our heads or running away from danger other than going in to it.

Best time essay
Have you ever had your cousin over for Christmas?? Have you ever gone shopping your aunts?? Have you ever gone sledding with your little cousin?? I have done all those things, here’s my story.
I had my best time ever when my cousins came up for Christmas. Here is one reason. I got to go sledding with my cousins. There was a huge jump at the bottom of the hill!! And well I have 3 cousins Mitch, Nick, and Madeline. Mitch is in 2ND grade and nick is in kindergarten. Well nick is about 3ft tall, and the jump is about half of him, so he goes flying off the jump and gets about 4ft of air. And there is air between the sledge and him. And then he fall down and comes up the hill and he says, “Mom I was flying!!” It was the funniest thing ever! And so cute! The other reason is that my uncle goes to workout every morning so he came to the sledding hill and bought hot coco. So when you were tired of going up and down the hill you could get a nice warm cup of hot chocolate. When the coco burns your tongue and warms up your inner body, and it feels delightful.
The second reason is that I got to go shopping with my cousin and aunts. We went to the Westfield mall, the one with all the new stores. Any way my cousin Lindsey gets whatever she wants, but she doesn’t act like a spoiled brat. So any way she and her mom is always the leader of the group when we do this, so we go where they want to go. Well I and my mom don’t do that so we went to our own stores so within 30 min. of the shopping spree we were already split up. Then next thing is lunch. We met up again at the huge food court, well sorta. My cousin got lost so we had to call and look for her. And so that was interesting so then we all meet up and me and my mom haven’t had lunch yet, and every one else has, so we go get our lunches at a pizza place, I love it there. So when we came back we were the only people who had no lunch so we ate and then they and we were off again. Then 30min later we came back to the food court and went to the movies. And we saw Twilight, and that was the 3rd time I saw it and was still good!
The last reason is that I got to have Christmas with them. My cousin sorta’s believes in Santa so she went to bed early with her little brothers. I stayed up till they put out the stockings. And mine was the best organized. On Christmas Eve we get to open all the presents from our family. I got 2 pairs of sock and lip gloss and some gift cards. And my other cousin got little nick nats. Then the next day was Christmas! I had to get up at 7:00 it isn’t that bad but still too early. And then we got to open the presents Santa got us. And I got nothing big, but my cousin got an exotic bag, it was hot pink with leopard, zebra, and cheetah skin on the pockets. And my other cousins got Guitar Hero, so we played that for a long time that morning.

All in all I got to go sledding with little cousins, went shopping and board out of my mind, and got to have Christmas with all of them.
