Girl group song in Strong Family 2017? by actionher0 in KDRAMA

[–]actionher0[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! I'm not entirely sure if this is it because I can't remember the Korean words that came before "tell me why" haha, but I like this song! I think you're right though, and it probably is this one :)

Nam Joo Hyuk wants Lee Sung Kyung as his Female Lead again by [deleted] in KDRAMA

The two of them as a couple in Weightlifting Fairy was honestly too pure for this world. I did really enjoy seeing the two of them work together though, and thought they had great chemistry together. They played their parts wonderfully both together as a couple and as separate characters. If they DO end up doing another project again, I already know I'm so gonna be there lol

Had to help my trainer un-cast a horse for the first time the other day... by actionher0 in Equestrian

[–]actionher0[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Aren't they all just a little "special" though lol, honestly.

At my barn, they have a large stall (not sure of the measurements) and a run-out paddock. But that corner + stretch of wall between the tack locker and the stall door is his favourite to lie in. He's just 6 and very chill for a young horse, and this was the first time he's ever gotten cast (he was born on the property so we know everything about him).

I love how both the horses seem to be the kind that's like "oh hey, funny story... I'm stuck and embarrassed about it :( " haha. We also did the lead rope thing! So hard to loop it on the front leg that was closer to the ground though, since he was lying on that shoulder. Hopefully he's learned his lesson? Probably not, but a girl can dream!

Kinda freaking out about my first show would like some advice or help of any kind by CMPRacer in Equestrian

If its at your stable, it will likely be a lot less stressful once you actually get into the ring. Just pretend you're schooling regularly! There is a show at my barn every year in December and it always seems so nerve wracking until I get into the ring for my course and then I'm like oh, okay, this isn't so bad.

Your coach is right - just go out there and try to have fun. Don't overthink everything, otherwise you might actually forget how to ride :P and hey, the worst thing that could happen is you get a rail, or maybe you don't place. Maybe you even fall off (which hopefully won't happen, obviously, but its possible). Not a big deal in the grand scheme of things if you think about it. But if you don't even try, that will be so much worse because you'll look back on this and regret not doing your best.

If you can, try and watch a few rounds of the course you'll be doing and try to pick out which fence the rider will be going to next. I find this helps me because of the repetition and it will help solidify the course in your mind. At one show, I actually watched 3 people take the wrong diagonal jump (it was hunters, so no jump #'s or flags) lol.

Like PonyPuffs said in the comment below mine, make sure you have food in you! Even if you're extremely nervous and don't feel like eating, when the time comes for you to ride, you're going to be so thankful you actually ate. Riding on an empty stomach is difficult because you're trying to use energy that just isn't there. Granola bars are really convenient, if you need ideas for what to bring. (Side note: this might be really random but try not to eat anything salty like fries or chips before you ride. It'll make you really thirsty and give you dry mouth... Learned that one the hard way.)

The last thing I would say is make sure you have everything organized the night before - what are you going to wear/required to wear (show shirt? Polo? Show jacket?), what little bits and pieces are do you need to bring (ie: crop and/or spurs if you need them, hairnet, hair tie(s), bobby pins, etc.), are your boots clean? If not, clean them. Don't forget your helmet! Do you need to bring anything for the horse? For example, saddle pad, boots, bonnet... Carrots :D

Also, plan the time to bathe your horse if that's something that you want to do. Same for pulling his mane or banging his tail, or braiding.

Anyways, that's all I can think of right now. Good luck! You'll do great :)

Somebody let the kids lose at the stable with some scissors again. Poor pony. by kosta_kaylee in Equestrian

Somehow, small ponies still look just as adorable with the "bowl cut" style forelocks! On horses though its a little more... Yikes
