"Ok, everybody I want to see those horses working. I want consistency and a connection between horse and rider and stay focused. The only time you are ever allowed to loose focus is if you see 6 pink hippos juggling fire sticks on a bus, and that's very unlikely so STAY FOCUSED!"
I could feel the sweat dripping off my forehead and my ankles were going to snap in 10 different pieces.
First lesson of advanced team and I was already about to drop dead. Mr. Connolly is our show jumping coach and he's pretty strict. He likes things done his way and his way only. He only wants the best on his team, first place winners. He was a perfectionist. I was beginning to like him though despite his mini class anger issues. What the team needed was someone to push us to our limits and bring out the best in us.
We had received our proper time table for class and riding since everybody had now joined one of the many equestrian teams.

Monday to Thursday we have normal classes plus a riding time. Every day after school and on weekends we have a team lesson as well as whatever we have during school hours. Friday there is no lessons at all. We can ride whenever we like but just no coaching. On Thursday we have last class called Mystery. This class is basically a bonding class with our horses and getting used to them and trust them more such as we might have a bareback class, or jump a course blindfolded or ride a whole lesson with no reins. This is not a hard tough lesson it's just a bit of fun. This is what I'm really excited for!
Today was Monday and we just had lunch and 3 more classes to go. God, it's killing me!
"I. am. already. sick. and. tired. of. school"Emily slumped down on the couch moaning and groaning. "Oh come on it's that not bad" I said looking on the bright side of things "we had to run 3 miles in the park today for stupid p.e. 3 miles!" Emily was nearly shouting now. "Ok, ok calm down" I laughed, "let's relax a bit we can go out for pizza and have a relaxing night" I said grabbing my jacket. "Alrighty then, let's do it" Emily said rushing out the door. Grabbing my phone, purse and keys we headed out the door.
"Can I please order the medium sized margarita pizza and a small water" I smiled sweetly at the waiter. "And I'll have the extra large pizza with chicken, bacon, chorizo sausage, sweet corn and red onions and could I have the other half with just plain pepperoni that would be great thanks, oh and a large Coke please" Emily said reading off the menus.
