Description FIRST PLACE!!!

Hunter Remy is freaking CUTE This will be my last entry for this show, so I figured I'd go for it!

“JESUS, stop pulling so hard!” Laura fiddled with the buttons on her shirtsleeves as Ileana yanked and wrangled her hair into a hairnet, just one of the several reasons she loathed the hunter classes.

“Do you want to look like a ragamuffin, child? Because if you keep squirming, you’ll get there,” Ileana mumbled through a mouthful of hair ties. Laura rolled her eyes, for about the sixtieth time that day.

“You do know it’s a training show, right? Most of these people are showing in polo shirts and schooling breeches.”

“A training show is still a show as long as the judge has eyes, missy,” Ileana reprimanded, pressing the knot of the hairnet even harder into Laura’s forehead.

“OW! Dammit, you’re worse than my mother.”

“Well, maybe you should learn to do it yourself. You want to touch anything at this barn with hunter tack, you’d better be doing this every day.”

Laura’s eyes just about bugged out of her head, between the pulling and her hatred of hairnets at shows, let alone for everyday riding.

“You aren’t serious, Ileana.”

“I’m dead serious. You want to practice with the team, your hair is in a hairnet or no ride.”

“Where did this rule come from?”

“Common sense?”

Laura bitterly strapped on her gloves and pulled her ratty old Charles Owen helmet out of its bag with eye roll number sixty-one. “Well, this hairnet headache is about to prove that common sense shit dead wrong, buddy.”

Fair point I went to zip up my tall boots yesterday and realized I couldn't just zip them anymore without a struggle so that was a kick in the rear...

I don't drink ever, but since I turned 21, my friends took me out and tried to find me a drink I liked since I don't like the taste of alcohol. The first one was like a dead ringer of cold medicine but I had sipped on it long enough to make them happy and get like 20% through it. The 2nd really didn't taste any better and was just like sour cold medicine, so I drank even less of that one. One of the guys that tagged along basically downed anything we didn't like. Then for my 3rd drink I basically got a shot as a drink and it was perfect. It uses like 3 types of liquor soooo it wasn't like just 1 type Very fruity and I just loved it. I got a 2nd one but then everything went to hell and my stomach got upset so I stopped drinking and went to water before we left. We were gone by like 12:30 and I've only been there once a few months ago and we didn't leave until like 2am... so we left really early. I just wanted to go home though sooooo

Seriously if you ever road trip to Cali lemme know. And if I ever go back east I'll have to see where you're actually at (since you're a traveling woman ya know), that way we can hang out. BFF is supposed to take me to Tennessee and possibly do some rodeos back there and she goes up and down the coast from Canada to Georgia sooo we might pass you somewhere.

LMAO relatable oh man... alcohol is straight-up nasty until the taste is acquired and even then...

I'm just all over the place all the time ya never know where I'm gonna be next, my career literally is probs gonna require me to move like 3 or 4 times in the first 5 years SOOOOOO

I'd be a terrible alcoholic, because I just don't like the taste of it. The said guy who was downing all our drinks is basically an alcoholic. He's much, much better at controlling it since he has a baby now, but alcohol is alcohol to him, he'll down it all.


Why can't I remember what career you went into? And again, if you ever venture to like Oklahoma, Texas or California (even Vegas for that matter, since it's 3 hours from me), let me know. I'm planning a few trips to Oklahoma, soooo
