HONOURABLE
MENTION
I
Love Horses
By Yannie Yu, of Kelowna, BC
“She’s about horses, horses, horses!” That is always how my sister
describes me. Well, I love horses so I guess she’s right. Horses are my
favourite animals because they are affectionate, graceful animals with
flowing manes and tails. But that’s not all why I chose
them as my favourite animal. Some horses are spirited but boy, are they
proudly magnificent! I think that really inside, they’re gentle. It’s
too bad I simply cannot have a horse. My mom says they stink and my dad
says we have no room and time (that’s true, we don’t). Horses are fun
to ride on with any sport in my hands. Right now I’m most interested in
racing but I’d like to do a bit of eventing. I would also like to have
my share of taking care of one. The thing I want to be when I grow up
is a jockey and vet. My family goes for the vet
but not the jockey (boo). If I had a horse, he or she would forever
make my day and I would be happy all my life until we died. Wait,
there’s a problem with that, my pony will be dead before me!! It would
sure be a teary moment. If I buy some more, I will promise my first
horse that I will never, ever, forget him.
