Horse Memo Diary Part 3

Intro:

 The story restarts on March 17, 1877.


Chapter 4:


 Anne and Beauty have been getting along quite well for the past month. They have been so well, we would let them free for 2 hours each day. They would trot over to our field full of blue bonnets. There, they would run around run around. They would then go over to the stables, get some water, eat, then get into their stables. Over the month, they had become smart enough to open the hatch to their stables. But today, something weird, something unusual happened.

 They got on their hind legs and would try to bite us when we tried to separate them. They had opened the hatch to the "Mating Stable". We call it that because when two horses are mating, we put them in there since it is the biggest stall we have. When my dad and I had come to the stables to see how everything was going, we noticed this. We casually pulled Beauty and Anne into their stalls. Halfway there, they would go crazy and would run back into the "Mating Stall".

 After 1 hour of trying, we gave up. We decided to let them be together in the Mating Stall for that day. But when it happened again the next day, we called the vet. The veterinarian came took them to his office which was uneasy at first, but got them to calm down by talking to them and giving them an apple, he managed to get them inside his stables. They were HUGE compared to the ones we had. My dad and I were impressed. Even though the horses had calmed down, they started to get uneasy when the veterinarian tried to separate them. He had to put it in HIS Mating room which was as big as 2 of OUR rooms. Beauty and Anne seemed to like it. After putting the horses down, he started to do the Xray Exam. After 10 minutes after starting the exam, I called John to come at once. John must've had about 10 horses because he arrived at the vet on a horse. I was confused at first since I HAD HIS HORSE but he was on another.

 Then he explained that his father was a farmer and had 40 horses!!!!! FOURTY!!!!!!! I stared in shock. Then I looked at the horse John had been riding. How could this horse run so fast? John explained again, "I was on a carriage pulled by 18 of the fastest horses. But when he had only one mile to go, had let them head toward his home leaving just his most fastest horse. He told me his name was Black Smith which made since sense Black Smith was a black horse.



AUTHORS NOTE:

BTW, beauty is a white horse and Anne the horse is brown!!!! Keep reading!!!!!!!



Back to Story:

 I take Black Smith into a stall and feed it some water. Then, I leave it and go to Beauty and Anne. I see the veterinarian talking to John and my dad, who is btw, Jack. As the veterinarian finishes his sentence, my dad's worried face turns into a smile. So does Johns. OMG. I KNOW what is happening!!!!! BEAUTY AND ANNE ARE MATING!!!!!!!!!!! OMG OMG!!!! I am so happy that I jump up and down. I had never seen this happen before and I am now about to experience it!!!!!!!

 The story restarts on March 17, 1877.


Chapter 4:


 A week has passed since I've written in this Horse Memo Diary. And you have no idea what happened throughout this week. :( I am sorry. I was busy with a ...a...CUB!!!!!!! Yup! Beauty and Anne had gotten a cub. I had decided to name the cub.........................................John! I had decided that since John had named one after me, I had decided to name one after him. John is the cub's first name but I decided to give it a middle name too: Moonlight. Why did I decide to give it a middle name? This is why:

1. I had named the cub John as a thank you to John (person) for naming one after me.

2. I also named it John because a special guest, John had been a part of it.

3. I named its middle name Moonlight because he has a white mark on its forehead just like its dad, Anne. But not in a diamond shape like Anne but in a Crescent Moon shape!!!! Isn''t that adorable??? (As you can see in the picture of Anne and John Moonlight bonding). "Isn't it ADORABLE????????"

 Those are the reasons why...

AUTHORS NOTE:

See Moonlight in the next chapter which will come up next week. BYE!!!!!! or NEIGHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! (In horse). Sorry this chapter is so short!!!!!

Horse Memo Diary Part 2

  Intro:

 This chapter begins in the early 1877.

Chapter 2:


 I open my eyes to the sound of Rooster Col calling to wake me up. I am not sure if I have overslept or not. You see, Rooster Col crows at 5:00, when I normally have to wake up and 7:00. I hope that I have woken up at 5:00 so that I can take care of my routine and then leave for Berkley at 7:00. I will be studying food, for that is all I know about. I love growing food and school so I'm sure I'll love studying about food too.

 When I go outside, I notice that it's still pretty dark. YES. I have woken up at the right time. I hurry into the candle room. We don't have any lightbulbs yet and it's quite dark. I grab one that is about to run out and put it into my parents' room. I grab a feel their rag. My mom's is dry. THE FEVER IS HIGH. I feel my dad's. STILL A BIT WET. That's good. I kiss them goodbye and their eyes open up a bit and say, "Goodbye my Princess" with the last of their strength. I am worried. I stare at them as they fall back asleep. Princess. Princess. Princess. I am their Princess. I take the candle as it turns off.

 I hop onto my horse, Beauty as I repeat. Princess. Princess. Princess. Beauty rushes in the dark while I hold a lamp.

Chapter 3:


 Beauty stops in front of a palace. Come on beauty!!!! No time for breaks!!! But Beauty doesn't budge. Instead, she points her head to the palace. And starts to try to get me off. As I get off, she pushes me with her beautiful face towards the palace. OMG. This can't be Berkley. This is HUGE!!!

I go inside after sending Beauty back home. I am not worried that Beauty won't make it home because I have done this before and I know that she has good sense of getting home. After 10 weeks of collage, I get a letter from my dad. It says:

Hi my Princess, Anne,

 Beauty arrived a 9 weeks and 6 days ago. Your mother died of a heart attack after knowing that you were gone. She had spent her last 10 minutes looking around the farm for you. She was really worried and when she remembered that she had said goodbye, she started crying and then, she...she... (you know what). I am sorry. I will try and get more money for you to stay in college. Oh, and the doctor came and told me that I am deaf but I will fight it for your own good.

Your Dad.

 Anne dropped her textbook with a THUNK.  She screamed. Everyone in her class stared at me. I ignored them and grabbed her stuff and rushed outside. Just then, a boy who had been staring at me for the last 10 years chased after me and sat next to the crying lump, me on the stairs to the main entrance into Berkley. He grabbed my hand and led me into the yard of Berkley and beneath a large apple tree. There. A horse as beautiful as Beauty was grazing. Not on grass, but on the trees.

 The boy, who I soon learned was John, tells me that the horse's name is Anne, although the horse is a boy. When I ask why, John's face turns red, as red as the apples on the tree. Then he whispers, "Because I named him after a girl I like." I look up at John. I then noticed for the first time, that he is quite handsome. Then, slowly, John wipes my tears with his fingers and picks me up, and onto Anne the Horse.

 Without a split second passing, I told the horse, "To Forest Farm". Then with a neigh, Anne and I were off. As soon as I arrive, I see Beauty. She runs over to meet me. But as soon as she comes over, instead of pushing her head towards me, she starts licking Anne the Horse. I am quite surprised for Beauty gets vicious with other horses. Just then, I see a man. My...my...dad. I haven't seen him up and out of bed for years now and I am so glad he's alright. My dad comes over, holds my hand and takes me to a lump. There is a cross that says. Jessie. My mom's grave. I started to cry and my dad, who had been trying to fight tears, let the tears fall onto his face too.

Author's Note:

 I'm sorry Ch. 3 is so sad. I almost started crying while writing this. Anyway, please comment about how much you like it so far! 1 star, all the way up to 5 stars!!!!! Thx!!!

Horse Memo Diary Part 1

Intro:


 In this short story, you will be experiencing a 10 year old farmer girl, Annie's life. In this story, she will be meeting a new friend named Bella. Annie and Bella will soon learn they had known each other for their whole life. This story's setting takes place in the early 1867.

Chapter 1:


 I open my eyes from the sound of Rooster Col's sweet sound. I need to wake up. I step into my shoes and look at the sundial on the dry soil. 7:00! I had overslept! The pigs woke up earlier than me! They are looking under piles of leaves trying to see if there's any food to eat. The pigs are now looking up to me as if calling my name,"Anne! Anne! Do you have any food?" My parents have been sick for weeks and I am their only hope. I take off like a rocket into the shed where we store our food and supplies.

 I come back and shove apples into the begging pigs' mouths. They ask for more but that's all they get for breakfast. Next, I go to my parents' room. This is the Morning Song. All of this. From the rooster, the sundial, the pigs, to my parents. All of it. The song continues as I change the wet cloth on parents'               foreheads. They groan as I do this. They have had a fever for a couple weeks now and I am worried. The Morning Song fades away as the sun goes down. This is now the start of night's work. Since I didn't finish my morning work, I need to finish all of it at night. I am under lots of pressure but I know it's my fault for oversleeping.

 I cut some wood and put the chunks into the fire. Next, I boil some water and put some rice in it. I am making some jook for my parents. You see, my grandparents are Korean and before they passed away, had made this for my parents. They had said jook was the best doctor for someone with fever. All it is "rice soup". Because it is soup, it is easy to eat...even for the sick. I grab 3 bowls and give one to each of my parents and one for myself.

 My parents take the jook and finish almost automatically while I take a while thinking about how these tired and worn-out parents used to be such jolly ones. As I think, I look up at the sky and see a shooting star. I pray that my parents will get better soon.

*Author's Note*
Do you like it so far? I'll write chapter 2 as soon as I can,  so hang tight!

Around the World Trip 38

                                     July 19, 2015

Diary #38

 Sorry I haven't been writing AGAIN. SORRY! SORRY! SORRY! I've been falling asleep like I said last time. I'm at home shouting, "HOME SWEET HOME!""

 I have been on the plane for 4 hours and another 2 hours in a car of one of my dad's employees. In the car, we looked out the window and slept.

 As soon as we arrived at my house, I took a shower and called my BFF who's moving to California. And after having dinner, I thought about our Around The World Trip. I asked myself questions and answered them. Here are SOME:

Q: Where did you enjoy the most?
A: Vienna. I liked it because we were never busy or tired there and was a clean place.

Q: What was the best part about Hawaii and the worst part?
A: I liked how we went swimming everyday and would always find something useful. One thing I didn't like was how my cousins would NEVER listen! The stress from them would give me a headache. Oh yah, another thing I enjoyed was the horse back riding tour. It was AWESOME! Except when my horse almost kicked another horse. Sorry, that occurred on a day I forgot to write.

Yah, today was basically a day of memories.

Diary #35

 Sorry I haven't written again for a long time but I kept drifting off to sleep every time I would get ready to write. Who knew being a big sis is hard? I didn't. Till NOW!!

 This morning, I woke up EARLY. When we got in the car, my cousins were asleep. I would've thought it was cute if they're breath didn't smell like ROTTEN CHEEZE! BLAH!!

 Anyway, we went to a beach and swam there for one hour with wild fish. Even if you took three steps from shore into the water, fish would swim right beside you! I loved it!




            CANNOT FIND THE REST TO THE STORY

                  WE ARE DEEPLY SORRY

Around The World Trip 32

Diary #32

 Sorry I haven't been writing for a long time. I will just tell you what I've done so far: After meeting my cousins, aunt, and uncle, we rested swam, watched movies, played with dolls, walked on hikes, and more.

 This morning, we woke up at 3:30AM. AM! AM! Yes, AM! We were all tired. We went to Haleakala National Park to see the sunrise. But we were too late and people that had been there when it happened, said that they didn't even notice because of the fog (clouds).

 After some pictures, we went to eat breakfast at a Hawaiian Restaurant. It was really good but one of my cousins slept for 35/36 of the time, so she only got to eat fried rice. Ok, I was over exaggerating, 7/8 of the time.

 Then, we came to our hotel to rest (watch movies) FUN!! - kind of.

Around The World Trip 26

                                      July 7, 2015

Diary #26

 This morning, I woke up and left the hotel. My parents and I went on a walk through the palace park. I learned about the the two statues which were of people that saved Australia from becoming part of France. I also learned that France had fought Australia at one point!

 After that, we went shopping. We went to Paul again. to buy my dad a tuxedo but we came out with empty hands. Then, we went ti Swatch. There, we bought a watch that represents Vienna. It has pictures of all the famous things in Vienna. It looked really cool and I have it on my wrist as I write this now.

 Once we put my watch at our hotel room, we were starving. So we went to the Korean Restaurant we normally always went to. We had the three things that they made the best. The food was AWESOME.

 On the way to our hotel, I got impatient so I told then I would meet them at the hotel after once they bought their groceries. After having a brief lunch, we went shopping again to buy me a traditional jacket. We went to 4 stores to find my size but we couldn't!

 After that disappointing moment, we went to to a museum. The Albertina. It was Maria Terrisa's favorite daughter, Christine's building. It was Christine's art gallery. When we were buying tickets, a woman gave me a scavenger hunt sheet. I had to walk around looking for the painting that matched and wrote the title and artist on the back. Once I finished, I got a badge. Yay?!

After having a great dinner, we came back to our hotel where I am now.
