Me in Liverpool.

So, basically I had a great time in Liverpool, though my uncle wanted to eat all the time and I didn't want to do that, because I don't like to eat and find it a little annoying when food is talked about all day long.

Anyway, we were lucky and had fantastic weather, blue sky and warm air, almost no wind. Couldn't have been better in that department. Obviously Liverpool lost 1-2 to Wigan, which was disappointing and frustrating to say the least, but just being at Anfield was fucking awesome. I mean, asdfghjkl. Really.

Saturday we came across Alan Kennedy and Jimmy Case outside Anfield, here's me and the two of them:

I look drugged, but I wasn't.

Sunday I saw Martin Skrtel near the Liverpool ONE, but didn't want to interrupt his day which he was spending with his girlfriend. I'm not so much for walking up to footballers and wanting an autograph anyway, 'cause I don't like to be just another fan, y'know? No? Ok.

(I saw Norway NT's coach, Drillo, at the airport in Oslo yesterday but didn't get his autograph either.)

I feel like I've seen everything that's important to see in Liverpool, but still, it was far from the last time going there. Next time I'll bring a friend or two, and we can check out the city at night. ;)

Yeah well. Back home in chilly, rainy, windy Norway now.

To get an opportunity you don't want to miss.

As I've mentioned earlier, I ride the gorgeous Cash on Mondays.
Yesterday my teacher told me and my class that they are going to sell him, because he doesn't fit in as a riding school horse, which is no surprise, but nevertheless something snapped right off inside of me; I felt a physical stab in my chest somewhere.
Then, when I came home, the trainee at my school, asked me if I want to buy him - 'course I do. What's even better is that he's cheap, really cheap. I can buy him for my own money! But, the amount on money spent on just the horse itself is sadly only half of the price - during one year it's likely I'll have to pay much more than what I'd pay for him to keep him.

Mum is not going to pay anything, she said so the last time I bought a horse - that that time was the last time she sponsored me. Fair enough, she's probably paid over 200 000 NOK for my hobby through the last few years.

I'll call dad later today and ask him about his opinion - Cash is not advertised yet, so I have a few days to decide what to do. I feel privileged to be able to decide before they put him up for sale.

This is a damn hard decision, because I don't know if it could be possible to take him with me to England when I go to study.
Now I'm going to try to get a job, and if I can, maybe I can buy him and pay for everything myself...?

Here's Cash last winter (I think), not my picture:

No Cash, but King.

Today was time for PFO again, and I was looking forward to it because I haven't ridden with my group for several weeks! Besides, I was excited to ride Cash again, he's such a sweetheart even though he's a terror to ride sometimes, lol...

However, he was limping when I went and fetched him from the paddock, so I just had to let him outside again and go and get King (hence the horribly bad headline).

Guess the 45 minutes could've gone better, but we rode a little outside afterwards, which was great because of the beautiful weather! Spring is really coming to Norway.

I also got the Spring Collection by LaRedoute in the mail today, going to look it through later today and see if there's anything in there I'm going to buy.

Next Tuesday me and my best friend Eline are going for shopping!

It would have been an acceptable defeat if Arsenal had deserved the win - even RvP admitted that they didn't deserve it.

Week-end.

Match-day tomorrow; Liverpool meets Arsenal at home. Agger is definitely out, and Gerrard probably too, as well as Johnson. Fucking shit, you know?

Haven't had the best week to be honest, tired and irritable. Now I want to buy a new horse! No! I can't! Whyyyy? I really want to try distance riding (or whatever it's called in English), so maybe I should ask Electra's owner if I can borrow her lipizzaner mare next year or something, haha... So I'm looking around at arabians for sale, saving them who seem nice. But I'm not buying or having a horse, so, this is purely for the fun of it, lol. ü
