Personal Narrative: My Experience At 4-H.

I love my horse, so much that sometimes it seems like he may even be the center of my life. I find it hard to imagine anyone having a horse and not loving it or being scared of it. But there was once a time when my little sister, Carrie, was scared to ride her horse and would not ride any other horses either. It all started on a warm summer day, my family and I were out for a ride on our horses, we stopped at a neighbor’s house to visit, and their youngest daughter Makenna wanted to ride along. Since they did not have their own horse and she was too young to ride alone, they let her ride with me.

After buttercup went to bed her parents were coming up with ideas on how they would break the news her.

Ruth constantly demands that they play by her rules. She decides when and how Kathy should ride the horse since Ruth, according to herself, obviously has a superior knowledge when it comes down to horses.

Kathy even indicates that the old

’s words of wisdom, “If you can’t fly then run, if you can’t run then walk, if you can’t walk then crawl, but whatever you do you have to keep moving forward” (King 1). To make the transition from a big city girl with a small family to a small city girl with a big family I followed King’s advice and always kept moving forward.

That was taken to the extent that the owner’s parents let him go to war to find the horse, putting their child’s life in danger. After saying this, the eldest girl of the three in “Follow the Rabbit Proof Fence” is the one I could relate to the most. This girl took a stand to not just her freedom but also to her sister’s and her cousin’s. She is a girl who could stand up for herself and who could express her thoughts truthfully, only needing to lie, to make sure that the younger ones would feel safe and in comfort. She didn’t let someone make up the choice of the way she would be living, but chose to make up her own.

I eventually grew up and I realized why I could never get a horse, it was because my mom didn't have a lot of money and the money she did have went to the bills for our house.

I was so happy,

Likewise, my second stanza focuses on how I spent many of my initial practice on the team: too timid and reserved to engage with my teammates, instead preferring to stay to the side and observe everything,

I love meeting new people who share the same interests and passions as I do. It’s hard to explain just how much this program means to me. When I am older I hope to run for Kentucky State 4-H Teen Council President, and can contribute back to this amazing

Mann wanted to show what others did not, “she wanted to catch the tension in their bodies, eyes and gestures as they passed into the confused state when girls become women” (Richard). Some believed that she was posing her subject when in fact she was happening to catch them at the perfect times.
