Holidays!

June school holidays start today!


Well, officially tomorrow, but that's just a technicality. 


I actually do have a bit of sneaky schoolwork left to do- which no one else knows about, hehe- but it's still holidays! And that's always exciting.


Four weeks left until I'm eighteen, two terms left of school, it's all very exciting.


Something else I decided the other day is that I may just abandon startline stays. I don't know if I can be bothered putting in so much work to try and totally retrain them, and then be disappointed when he breaks at a comp and all that work goes out the window. 


Soooo, because we're awesome, I'm going to be trying out a modified slingshot. If I can set myself up off from the first jump, push Charlie around and behind me, then out to the first obstacle while I sprint like a mad thing forward, I should hopefully, all things going to plan, get where I need to be. 


It's just a matter of whether or not he has the focus enough to do it at a comp.


Aaaaaaaah, the moose: he's such a frustrating dog.


Yesterday he had a "princess day" where everything made him worried and he was acting all precious. It's so annoying when he gets like that, because you can't do anything with him- you can't even look at him without his eyes going all big and him starting to slink around. So he got ignored yesterday, because it's easier for everyone. He's in a slightly better mood this morning, but there's still the essence of princess so we won't be attempting much.
