1. "So... Do you like, race?"

No. No we do not. We are not jockeys.

2. "Riding a horse isn't a sport!"

DO YOU EVEN WATCH THE OLYMPICS? OH YEAH. ITS THERE.

3. "The horse does all the work."

Have you ever tried to exercise a lazy or stubborn horse?

4. Don't you just sit there?


Does it look like that person is just "sitting" there?

5. Why do you need to lift and workout?

You need padding for whenever you get thrown off. That's the only logical reason.

6. "Oh, I bet you all love camo and country music."

Hey y'all, more like five layers of show clothes. #Dip

7. "Do you have a meet? Or a competition..?"

More like 4 a.m. horse shows, my friend.

8. "How do you guys like practice and stuff?"

This. Exactly like this.

9. "What do you guys do at workouts?

Lots and lots of cardio.

10. "Oh you ride horses. I bet you're pretty good at riding other things."

Yeah. Those exercise bikes for when we have cardio.

11. "It looks so easy, I can definitely do that!"

If we are making it look easy, we are definitely doing our job correctly. Let me tell you, it is NOT easy.

12. "Wait. Seton Hill has an equestrian team?"

Would you like to ask that question again?

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
