First few days of Uni and my Bronze Award Exam

Yesterday was my first proper day at University, everything seems so dream like at the minute! When we first got there we got told more information about the course that we are doing for me it's a foundation year in Art and Design followed by three years of Commercial photography. The great thing is there are also two other girls on my course that are doing the same as me, and the three of us are all getting along really well! Then we had a tour around the two parts of the campus that we are going to be using followed by a talk on what to do if you are poorly and can't' come in.

That evening I also had my Pony Club Bronze Award one and two test. I was nervous to start with but I knew that they were all things that I knew, or things that I do on a regular basis so I can do them without thinking about it. Then I got to put Gatsby to bed and rug him up for the night as the weather is turning cold and rainier. I passed both my one and two Bronze award. So Monday was a really good day for me.

Today was my second day at University all this week we are going to be doing induction type things so we don't actually get started on the course until next Monday. This morning we had a tour around the library that was supposed to take an hour but only took 15 minutes so instead for the other 45 minutes we sat chatting. Then I drove home and then went back in at 4 o'clock for a talk and opportunity to be able to meet all the people that we will be working with. It finished earlier but I did find it helpful and all the people seemed really approachable. Tomorrow I officially enrol on my course in the morning and then in the afternoon I do some more workshops and getting used to using the computer university system!

Tonight I went to my brothers friends house for his older sister to cut my hair. She's the same age as me but has been training to be a hair dresser. She does a really good job of cutting peoples hair and I'm really happy with how it looks. I've got a thicker/fuller fringe and longer layers this time. I'm not dying it until at least my birthday next year as it just needs some time off from having dye put in it.

Until Next Time

CON ARTIST - NICKI WILLIAMS - BEWARE

Okay so this post has taken me a while to post for several reasons but the main one being just how angry this woman has made me. For those of you that have been following my blog for a long while you will know that back around October of 2016, I was introduced to a woman called Nicki Williams, she was a friend of a friend that was supposed to be opening a centre for rehoming and rescuing animals, but also for horses working with soldiers that has PTSD. We hit it off straight away and came what I thought to be good friends. However warning bells should have probably rang sooner. By January or February of last year the horses that I had agreed to look after (that she had got on loan) Bella and Arthur, she was being threatened that she would have them taken off her by the control of horses act, because she hadn't been paying the rent for the field. Although Nicki reassured me that she had done, she even showed my 'payments' that had been made to Angie. I ended up getti...

Magic's 2nd day in his new home

It has been a while since I have posted on here but I thought it was the perfect time to restart the blog. So to start with I'll give you all an update on what's been going on over the years since I've posted and then I will be back to regularly posting and keeping you all updated on the world of magic. The first big change who I need to introduce is Jaxon, Jaxon is mine and Jack's 7 month old baby, he was born on the 7th July 2020. Part of this blog will be dedicated to overcoming the challenges of having a small child and owning a horse, even when everyone told me it was impossible to do. Jax has a best friend Bailey who is mums new 1 year old puppy and he has the best time trying to play with her. Of course Magic is one of Jaxon's best friends. Now for an update on Magic, he is doing really well, I can't remember if I ever told you, but he moved yards last year when I was pregnant with little man. Unfortunately this yard just didn't quite ...

Olympics - good bad or both?

In the Beijing Olympics in 2008 the horses used in the pentathlon were said to cause farcical scenes with fall after fall after fall. This was said to be the fault of the horses that were either hired or loaned to the competitors. It was not blamed to be rider error or a combination of both rider error and horse error, it was labelled as being the horses fault or this is what it said in ' Horse and Hound Magazine'. This horse was said to have been to spooky and sharp, but is it not a combination of rider's aids and rider error AS WELL as the horse being spooky. Can we really just blame it on the horse, when we are the ones that tell the horse what to do, by no means am i saying it was 'just the riders fault' couldn't it have been a combination of both?. For the London 2012 Olympics it was said that a total of two years if no longer was spent attempting to find the right horse for the right competitor. They made sure that the horse was at the right l...
