18 - western and english - senior
Alright. So here's the catch. I'm Dakota Cheyanne Renwood. I'm eighteen year's old, and only a few weeks away from graduating. I'm the daughter of Tyler James Renwood and Margurite Elizabeth Renwood. They own Cherokee Rose Academy. They've owned the academy ever since I was a small child. As far as I know, they purchased it when I was about a year old, and, with my father's passion of horse competeing, introduced me to the wonderful sports of the equine world, in which I now compete in both western and english. I'm a fierce competitor, and have won many blue ribbons in each sport. Pole-Bending, Barrel Racing, Cutting, Reining, Show-Jumping, Cross-Country, Dressage, etc. You name is, I've done it.
I have a huge fascination for horses. However, most poeople that join riding academies as high ranked as Cherokee Rose only get there because they love their horses so much that they provide only the best for them, which allows them to compete to their best, and then they get that acceptance letter. My father watches all the competitions and studies each rider, from novice to advanced. After all, he and my mother have this huge, buring passion for competeing. My mother was a world famous competitor. Of course this seemed to have passed down to me, which I am very thankful for. It's even better since I have no siblings to compete with. What can I say? I enjoy the spotlight. The only downside to not having siblings is the pure fact that I am now stuck with all the barn chores.
Of course, there is also an up to that. Thanks to constant excerise, I am extremely skinny. I only weight about one hundred pounds and fit easily into a double zero. Many would think that doing stable chores would be messy, but it's really not. As a matter of fact, my black hair is always clean, and I hardly ever get anything in it. I've never even had a problem with acne! The only reason for that is, I take very good care of my skin, and hey. Doing chores and studing? No biggie. You get use to it after a few years. As a matter of fact, I seemed to learn better when I related everything to horses, and so that's what I did. I've never made below a 'B' in my life. Of course, this has it's downs. During school, I was the weird, horse-riding, emo chick, that was book smart. So, I never really had friends. Except for two.
Aira and Jamie would often times say that my personality was one of persistance, while also being fun, and outgoing. I never really understood, but when they explained, I was amazed at how much that did sound like me. Apperantly, I was always optimistic and happy when I was around them or my horses, and when I was down, my mood seemed to affect the ones around me. Even the people that hated me. When Aira and Jamie met my parents, they had their doubts about how I was acting around them. Aria claimed that I was 'putting on a show.' Until my father told her differently, however. Accoding to him, I'm very respectful and always do what is asked of me with a hugh smile, and my mother says that I've always been helpful, dispite never really having a break, and she often has to make me go away before I decide to have some 'me' time.
To myself, I see myself as exactly what they described me as. I guess it's not really that deep of an explination, but hey! I'm not a very... deep person. I tend to be quite simple to figure out! It's amazing really. I've never been easily irritated for as long as I can remember. I don't even remember getting punished. I guess that's because my parents aren't strict at all. If anything, they're super amazing, no matter how regal they make their apperance seem.
So, my optimistic personality plays a big role in things I enjoy and don't. Obviously horses, and friends. I love all animals really. It's just.. A me thing. I also enjoy the rain, the moon, music, riding, the woods, swimming, playing guitar, singing, writing music, poems, and stories, and taking relaxing walks with one of my favorite horses, Washi, following at me heels. He's very well trained. Of course, I didn't train him. My father did that. But anyway, some things I really don't like really depends on my mood. Sometimes I hate the rain, and sometimes I hate being in the woods or swimming, so really, my mood plays a big role.
I guess that's all I'm willing to share, so anything else can be brought to my attentions personally. Adieu!
