What have I gotten myself into?! lol

[zippy-kat]

I'm bwerry, bwerry, nervous!

This Wednesday/Thursday I will be trying out for the university equstrain team!

I will be trying out for hunt seat as well as western. It's been FOREVER since I've done hunt seat!

AHHHH! Very nervous! lol

[Gio]

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed!

[TheAntiPam]

Good luck with the tryouts! How great to have a chance to work with animals during such an important period of your life!

The closest to an equestrian team that my college had was a bunch of fraternity boys on snomobiles... just not the same!

[zippy-kat]

LOL

Thanks for the well-wishes guys! I appreciate it!

Pet Talk will be one of the first to know what happens!

[Daisy's Mom]

I think that's awesome! I hope you make it in. Good luck! Daisy has her paws crossed and my fingers are crossed also. You can do it!

[zippy-kat]

Wellllll...

I tried out today. I have a feeling I didn't do so great.

I'll know on Friday whether or not I made the team.

[Daisy's Mom]

Aw, I bet you did great! I hope you get in! Let us know right away.

[zippy-kat]

Well, I didn't make it.

However, congrats to those who did and I wish you the best of luck!

Dear Zippy, just by competing you are a true winner! It's only those who don't give a try who are the losers!! I say congratulations to you! And I'm sure there are many more competitions and successes in your future! Love, Sandra

[zippy-kat]

Thank you Sandra! You've brightened my day!

I figured if I didn't make it, I'd be really bummed, but I'm ok with it. (Ok, so I did hit the Ben & Jerry's when I got home--but after that I was fine! lol )

Anyways, thank you very very much for your compliment!!

[Daisy's Mom]

LOL you took the news like every real woman should: with a smile and a gallon of ice cream! Haha, you go girl And even if you didn't make it, I respect you for having the guts to try out! When I was a freshman I auditioned for a very hard-to-get-into chorus and I didn't make it in... so I grabbed some ice cream!!! I vowed to never audition again... but the next year I did, and I made it in! So maybe next year? Anyway, it was a great try! And we love ya anyway

[zippy-kat]

No...no next yr for me. I'm in my sr yr of college!!

(and it was only a pint..."A waist is a terrible thing to mind!" )
