Tourny

Well, The Tournament was beyond awesome ^^ There were about a 100 competitors. Sadly there was only one other girl in my division. I got to the tourny at about 10am, and I wasn't on until 5:30pm >.>
So we went shopping at Gas Town in Vancouver until about 1pm. I bought a sweet ass new cowboy hat, it�s chocolate brown and leather. It�s the nicest hat I�ve ever had and it was only 60$ CND ^^ I�ll probably post pictures of it at some point. :)
Anyway, I kicked ass, I had the girl on the run almost the whole time. For every kick she threw, I threw three(Which is what my master told me to do). Sadly, two out of three of the judges were from her school, and one was only 13 years old. Both of them favored her, so I only got silver. >.>
The third judge came up to my master twice after the match and told him that I had been robbed, and that I should have gotten gold. The referee in the ring with us for the match also said that I had been robbed. And everyone that watched said the same thing. So even though I got silver I'm still pretty happy. ^^ I can't wait for the next tourny.
Oh, for some other interesting news. I spent a good 40 minutes trying to get my horse over a log on the trail today. I finally got him over it (I would have stayed there all night if I had to) but he broke my foot in the process by stepping on it then throwing all his weight on it and trying to take off. This isn't the first time he's done this, last year he broke my right (It was my left this time).
My left foot is the dominant foot I kick with, so I'm happy he broke it today, and not before the tourny.
By break I mean probably cracked/fractured/broke a bone in my foot. I won't get it checked out, most of the time little breaks like that heal on their own. the bones in your feet are small and fragile, and often get broken.
Oh, and I bought a (PRODUCT) RED iPod nano today. I ordered it online, so I should see it within the week. I'm so excited ^^
And finally for art, I haven't been doing too much, as you can see I've been pretty busy, but I'm hoping this week to get some stuff done :)

*worries for you*
Yer new cowboy hat sounds nice, i dont see many leather ones around, just the traditional style stetsons ( straw with a epoxy or hardener coating ) or the ever resiliant crushable felt hats LOL. Congrats on the silver too n.n Also congrats on getting yer horse over the log too. I had a little workings with that, the mare Filly, i used to work with she was a really intetative listener. LOL Scary huh :D It was to the point where i walked and she followed . . . .almost head placed directly on my back. . . pushing as to say Hey yer too slow speed up. LOL I had it easy with her i walked over the log . . . and she did the same . . . with some hesitation . . but it was more about the obstical blocking her from following me not the fact it was a log and she never did it before. She first tried to find a way around it but the brush was too thick. . . then she just stuck her head over it ( the log was about knee high to her ) as if to say come back over her. Lets just say after a while she jumped it and just about bowled me over in the process. She nipped me as to try and tell me she didnt like that i left her . . . . Filly was real clingy to me, little more than her own owner LOL She was sad to watch as i had to leave the farm on the days i wasnt working with her. anywho
Congrats on yer silver, and yer overcome feat with yer equine friend. Hope yer nano works good fer ya n.n sorry to badmouth them but i had bad luck with ipods.
P.S. one of the best books i have read. I was very impresed with the par discribing using his system on the dear.
No need to be sorry about the tourny and my foot, The foot doesn't bug me much, and the tourny was soo much fun ^^
