I have been taking horse riding lessons in Huntington Beach since October of 2011. I absolutely love riding and grooming the horses. On weekends if it was raining or if it was a holiday and we did not have any lessons that Saturday, the whole weekend is just not the same. I often lay in bed tired and depressed on Saturdays if we don't have a horse riding lesson. I feel like I have learned a lot about horses and riding horses since I have started!!!
I still have trouble remembering how to girth the saddle or tie the horse to the post the correct way, but eventually I will have it all down in the near future! Horses are like hip hop dancing where it became a passion for me in my life later on in my adulthood stage. Before I stated riding horses I had read 60 books from start to finish about riding, owning, grooming, and the various breeds of horses in the world. I read all these books from August 2010 to september 2011. I have seen 5 or so horse grooming, boarding, and riding how to videos in that same time period. It was helpful for me, but a lot like learning to swim on land.
I entered my horse crazy kick when I saw a picture of the miniature horses in the DK publishing book about horses and the various horse breeds back in 2004 or 2005. I have scared a lot of sexy woman who are models off by mentioning to them the fact that I think miniature horses are so cool and that I want to one day own one! It is not the first thing I mention them, but it is something on my mind and a dream of mine, so eventually I might bring it up somehow to their attention. I know it might be poor social skills, but my dream of owning miniature horses is a major factor in my life and my personal pursuits. We all have our dreams, and I embrace my dreams rather than act ashamed of who I really am inside and what things in life that I am about. If beautiful sexy girls who are models think a miniature horse or a Savannah cat or pixie bob cat are stupid ideas for a pet, then they are not going to ever end up with me, even if I think they are the cutest and sexiest strong woman I have ever seen or met before. I only have one life here on earth and I am going to be pursing my passions and my dreams and trying to make life happen for the best in a good way for me. People might hurt me or let me down or even put me down, but I own my dreams and no one can take that away from me unless I let them! I guess that we are all supposed to fit into regular society and care about things like being a rich millionaire who is having sex affairs with simple minded trophy wives or mistresses, owning tons of expensive cars and other trivial things normal people aspire to brag about to prove to others around them how cool they are....I am not that guy! I like things that amuse me and things that love me back, I am looking for things in my life that comfort me and make me feel healthy inside. I really like beautiful women, so I want to marry a model who I like as a strong unique person and whose looks amaze me every time I look at her. I want a woman that I can't stop thinking about. If she awes me and totally amazes me, then I know that I like her...If I am not smitten or captivated by the woman, then I am not sure if I really like her, or should pursue after her. Pets are like my fantasy dream girls, I love and cherish the bond and love and companionship I have to my pets. I do love awesome rare hard to find art books but living breathing things that can truly love me and be my friend are more important to me in life than an original work of art or a cool bad ass art book! This might sound pretty random, but I was always funky or an unusual person, even as a little kid, when I was in love with magic, toys, and puppets/puppetry. I might not be as wild about puppetry like I used to be all about at a younger age many years ago, but the theme of the hopeless romantic dreamer in love with someone or something has remained the same throughout my life. If someone was shallow, vain, self centered, or mean, they would not like me as their company, we would not hit it off together very well. Love intreiges me and is often what drives me throughout my life. I love being in love and falling in love be it a model I met at comic con, or horse riding, studying art history by buying and collecting used art books, sculpting and expressing myself with ceramics clay, or hip hop dancing classes and events. Passion and not only facing my dreams and embracing them, but trying to make all or most of my big dreams come true is the most important thing in my life after my pride and me being a mench and the best possible person and friend that I can be to myself and those around me in my life!
