Anyone who’s talked to me for about 40 minutes will know that there are two things I love and some would say obsessed with. The first being horses, at the age of 6 I had my first riding lesson at a barn that would become a bigger part of my life than I ever imagined. At the age of 13 I began volunteering as part of the Challenge Unlimited program at the farm to help riders of disabilities ride and take care of their lesson ponies for the day, after 2 months of volunteering I was asked to join the Working student program as well as the Challenge Unlimited one where I stayed for the 5 years until leaving for college. Never would I have imagined at age 6 that I would spend the next almost 13 years there but I wouldn’t trade the days and memories for the world. The second thing I enjoy is music, ever since I was a young girl (though I never had any musical talent) I’ve always loved listening to music at all hours of the day but recently I discovered my love for Queen and Elton John and now almost all conversations will mention them at one point or another (which my family loves). But I don’t just enjoy listening to them, at times listening to both their music helps calm me down when stressed or upset or just when you need a picker-uper their music has been able to do that for me. Though I just started getting into Elton’s music Queen has been part of my life for sometime so when I was finally able to find a friend to drag to one of their concerts it was a dream come true.
