Brea "Jumping," I said quickly. That was my strongest subject, even though it wasn't my favorite. Dressage atleast kept me entertained.

ooc: UGh. Fine! lol jk jk! sure Brea I nodded and circled Diablo a few times. He had onyl jumped on really small jumps before since he went blind, but now was the time to take a chance. I collected him into a trot, and then a slow canter, and we sailed over the first to jumps. The next set of jumps had flowers on them. He got distracted by the first one, but he trusted me. He hit the rail three out of twelve times, and the rail only came down once. I knew my hands had been fidgity durring the ride, but I thought overall we were pretty good. "Now, just imagine me on a horse thats not blind," I thought in my head.

Mr.Conner I smiled. "Over all a good ride, you made sure diablo trusted you" i said. "You need to keep your hand still and after you come off a jump theres a split second where you could look of balance, just watch that" i smiled. "But very strong ride" i said. "Crosscountry?" i asked

Brea I pretended to groan. Both Diablo and I were raised to be I guess you could say "Classy" and we hated cross country trails with dirt and mud. "Unfourtanetly,"

Brea I led Diablo into a full pledge canter and we soared over the jumps, trying to get it over with quickly, without rushing. He knocked the second jump down, but cleared the rest. On two of the jumps, my hands fidgeted. He eyed the water jump but cleared it with ease.
