Reasons That Equestrians Are Awesome

1. First of all, we control 1,200lb animals

Do you know that equestrians actually have some of the most leg strength out of most athletes? This is mostly because of the fact that EQ students have to somehow manage a big and heavy horse in between their legs. Even the ponies can cause trouble! We pretty much can handle just about any other situation, you will never be a problem.

2. We get to wear the tight pants

Equestrians are those girls in the weird looking pants with the suspicious patch on the inside of their leg. No need to panic, these are just the part of our jodhpurs that give us some traction for riding. These pants also tend to extentuate our toned thighs and bum.

3. Think your practice is hard? Think again..

Yes, soccer and football can be hard, but imagine not being able to communicate with your teammates using words. Equestrians use the power of feel and if your fall off at the jump, you are probably doing something that you need to fix. In this way, EQ students have a unique set of skills that involve more than just talking.

4. Vast knowledge on practical jobs

Riding is more like a lifestyle, and may include “taking care of a kid”. Horses like humans need care and attention which sets us up for mom skills as I call them. We need to be there day in and day out which to some may seem bad, but I honestly think that this makes us dedicated to our hobby and in most cases, profession.

5. We are pretty kickass in everything else we do

Let’s face it, equestrians have some pretty great things going for them. We are good at almost everything we do, we are gracious but competitive people, all with some great looking bodies. We have muscles you wouldn't imagine. Next time you try to go and say that riding is easy, come find one of us and test out that theory!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
