Me in 3 Objects

Describing me in three objects. Well anybody who knows me would know that I am completely obsessed with horse riding, horses and everything else to do with horses. You would know that I can keep a secret forever, I don’t tell anybody else’s secrets and I usually don’t tell anybody my secrets. And most people who know me know that it would be very rare to see me go anywhere without lip gloss. I think that these three things could say almost everything there is to know about me.

Black Beauty, National Velvet, Seabiscuit and International Velvet are all classic stories about horses and people’s relation with horses. I think that these movies say a lot about me because I absolutely love horses, horse riding and everything else to do with horse riding. The story International Velvet is a story about a young girl named Sarah who began riding after she moved in with her aunt in England. She became such a good rider that when she was only seventeen she was selected to ride for the British Olympic team. A year later she rode in the Olympics and she became the youngest person to win the Olympics. My goal in life is to do exactly what Sarah did in this story. If the story International Velvet became the story of my life then my dreams would have come true.

I know that diaries are meant to be icky things that girls in fluffy pink dresses with poodles write in but I almost NEED to write in my diary. I write down everything excited that has happened and how I feel and all the other icky mushy lovey-dovey stuff that girls write in their diaries. I feel like my diary is huge part of my life and also represents me. If I were to write something in my diary and then lock the diary shut, nobody would know unless I gave them the key. If somebody told me a secret, I wouldn’t ever tell anyone no matter what unless the person who’s secret I know tell me I can. My diary is my best non-living friend, I tell my diary everything and the diary just sucks it all up like a sponge without saying anything that might embarrass me or make me even more uncomfortable with that secret. If a friend told me a secret that was really personal I wouldn’t EVER make them feel bad about that. Another thing about this diary is that I have written mainly in a top secret code. I discovered this code while reading a book called Solving Zoe that my mom ordered from America. I remember being so excited about getting this book because we had been looking for it for quite a long time. I had been so excited that day that I read the whole thing and memorized the code in just a day, and from that day onwards I started using that code in my diary. Every secret I know is written in that diary, so if there was anything you needed to know about me it would be in that special book. My diary is like the key to my life, it has everything that matters or ever did matter to me written in it’s pages.

Fantastic Mr. Fox is a story that my dad used to read me when I was younger. It is one of the only stories my daddy has read me because like most dads, he goes to work everyday. Fantastic Mr. Fox is a story that I still find interesting. I love the way that Mr. Fox can sneak all over the place getting food and water without getting caught. My dad got this book for me which is why I think its really special. I don’t get to spend too much time with my father so every moment with him is special. Something else that I find equally special is the bracelet that I got with my dad in China. We went to a bargaining tourist store and w had lots of fun testing to see the best price we would get. Almost everyday last year I wore my charm bracelet. A few of the charms are the dolphin, I am a Pisces and one of my favourite animals are dolphins. I chose a horseshoe, because like I have mentioned several times, I am crazy about anything and to do with horses. I put a laptop on my bracelet because when I’m not riding, reading or doing homework I am usually on my laptop talking to friends, which is also why I have a cell phone on my bracelet. I feel like every charm that I chose on this bracelet says something about me.
