Bout of Books and Back to School Challenge Start

           

The name is Ashley, I`m 19 and have grown up reading since the age of 3.5. I have been blogging going on 3years now and plan to continue doing it for a long time.
       The best thing about reading is that each book places me into a new world. I can be anywhere/ anytime I want without leaving the comforts of my bed or car.



         



 Besides reading I am an avid horseback rider. I ride Western but have ridden English. I am the 2012 California State Horse Mastership Barrel Racing Champion. In the riding world this sounds like a way cooler title than a mouthful of jumbled words. I own 6 lovely horses that mean the world to me.
         






 I am a full time college student and this will be my 3rd year. I am studying animal science and linguistics. I have a wonderful penpal from France that I get to skype with to help me study.


I`m super excited to be participating in several challenges/readathons this week.
Bout of Books 11 is happening from 8/18/14-8/24/14 (hosted by Bout of Books)
Back to School Book Blogger Challenge (hosted by Parajunkee)

Enjoy and join in the fun.


TTFN,
Ashley

  1. Wow! That is so cool. I love horses:) I had one when I was a little girl. It's been a lot of fun hopping to each blog and reading what each person has to share. I'm excited to read what your answers to other challenge questions will be:)

    1. I have 6 horses total
      1 Quarter Horse (mare)
      3 Mustangs (geldings)
      1 Quarter Horse/Mustang (gelding)
      1 Arabian (mare)
      I love them all but my baby will always be my favorite.

      The one pictured above was actually my senior project for highs school. He was a friends horse with an injured back.

      thanks for stopping by,

  3. Aw, I love horses! But I've only ever been riding properly once when I was about 12. I'd definitely do it again though :)

  4. It's nice to meet you Ashley! And congrats on winning the championship! I've always wanted to learn how to ride a horse. I love watching tons of horse shows, and reading about them in books. :)

    1. Riding is a blast. I`m lucky to live in a place where I can ride and enjoy nature from the back of such a magical animal.

      Thanks for visiting.
