So yesterday I fell of my horse. It majorly sucked. Like, usually I'm pretty graceful with my falls, but this one just SUCKED.

Mostly because my girth ((y'know, the strap holding the saddle on)) came undone. Like POP.

We were cantering circles in the ring and the horse was being a bitch, making me seriously steer with my legs and shit. And I'm stepping on my outside stirrup, trying to balance my weight, and my saddle started slipping. I thought the girth was just loose, and you hear these horror stories about being stuck under the running horse when your saddle slips under. Way to go me, I freeze up.

And then the horse ducks in and... my saddle doesn't.

Like, inertia.

So I'm still sitting on the saddle, going in one direction, and off the horse goes in the other. Thank GOD the girth came completely undone. Anyway, I slam to the ground, my whole right side simultaneously. Terribly ungraceful.

And now my whole right side aches. Right hip, right shoulder, right arm... a little scrape on my hand, and, randomly, the left side of my neck hurts.

I'm also a little nervous for school tomorrow. I just want things to go right. Because if stuff goes wrong, that's a great friendship, down the drain. I know, though, that I'm willing to work my ass off to keep the friendship, no matter what else happens.
