Orientation will close at 6:30 PM and riders will head to their assigned dorming cabins where they will meet their roomies and head to sleep on a full stomach. . Note: You will need to PM me about your riders scheduals before posting! Please use the format below for replies/posts on this forum. .

Crew Tatem 19 | 2nd Year | Horse: Lord Leatherfair aka. Valegro | Show Jumping, Eventing, & Hunter Showing
・❥・ . The morning had started out... chaotic, to say the very least. It didn't help that last nights sleep wasn't the smoothest either. Crew had never been the best sleeper, always waking up in the middle of the night - whether that be due to dreams or the faintest sound of his apartment. He'd always been a light sleeper. So when his roommate, a young man not a year older than Crew himself had been heard banging pots in pans at three in the morning... you could geuss Crew's reaction. Yes, he may have been a bit harsh with his words while storming his way to the kitchen in little more than his socks and boxers - but his roommate had gotten used to it. Crew was offered some breakfast quickly after the roomate had noticed his mistake and the 19 year old boy settled down. The anxious jitters of the day to come had also been plaguing his sleep the previous night, so that was yet another reason the snippy side of him likely revealed itself. Skip a few hours, and Crew had gathered up the belongings he'd packed the previous night in preperation for today. He was now on his way to the place he'd be calling home for the next year... the same place he'd been the previous. Valegro had been picked up from the boarding barn he'd been held at while Crew tried figuring out his life, and was in the sheening silver training trailing the boys truck. It wasn't long until the welcoming sign of IEEC Riding Hall came into view. Tucked in a foresty area with dirt roads, it was a bit of a squeeze but Crew eventually made it. His eyes widened slightly at the new barn modelling and surrounding areas as he parked, hopping out. Damn. Wasn't it impressive. |

Choi Marquise 16 | 1st Year | Horse: Gargoyle's Landmark aka. Garg | Show Jumping, Eventing, & Dressage. _ The morning did not start well, you could say. Marquise couldn't sleep the whole night, after her stables caught fire at 2AM. It wouldnt be a worry after it, if only Gargoyle wouldn't break down his stall's door, and try to run away. At 7AM straight, when Mar's roomates alarm went on, everything was ready - my luggage and well.. herself! Going down to the kitchen with a luggage that felt like weighted 3 tons, tripping and almost killing herself, getting a jump scare from a parrot - was nice... §§ A few hours later, she is putting a nice pair of burguny riding pants, and dark boots with CM engraveyed on them. She quickly searches through her closet - looking for that black knitted sweater with a long neck to wear. She pulls it from the shelf and pulls it on herself, struggling with the neck. She walks out of her house, thinking of the fun she's gonna have with her new roomate, Miran, or Miren.. She couldnt remember clearly. She gets into her car, yawning and scratching her head thinkin if she forgot anything. After being frozen for about 5 minutes, she finally decided to move towards the new riding academy. After about 57 minutes of being in the car, the IEEC Riding Hall was finally beggining to show. Looking around at the coral roofs and sand colored dorms, she pauses her car infront of the gates - show her invitation letter and driving in. Parking and almost squashing a dog, because she was sleepy, was. uhm- terrifying. She gets out of the car and slam the door behind herself. She goes to her trailer, looking at the trailer door. She thinks to herself: Nice to finnaly be back at a GOOD school! |

Jessica Dakota Foster ⚕︎ 2nd Year | 17 Years Old | F | A ce Sior la Rose | Showjumping, Dressage & Cross Country ⚕︎ Jessica flipped the light shift, her dark eyes taking a moment to adjust to the light change. Her alarm had just gone off at the ripe time of 05:00. She rolled out of the bed, dragging her blanket down with her. For such an early morning the air was cold but almost humid, atleast in Worthing it was. She trudged over to the kitchen, putting the kettle on. There was truly no better way to start off the morning than with some coffee, especially with the drive ahead. Jess had been living in the small cabin just left to the stables, but all that was about to change today as she was on her way to IEEC! She went through her morning routine, having her coffee and old pasta leftovers from last night. Pulling on a dark purple jumper and her worn stable boots Jess stepped out of her cabin. It was a bit of a trek down to the lot where she had prepped the trailer the previous night. The shape of the horses where finally visible. Her family boarded about 13 horses currently, including her two: Rose and Killian. Rose was Jess' most experianced mount and they had been partnered the longest. She went about giving her two their breakfast and packing the final of Rose's tack into the trailer. ⚕︎ They had been on the road for about 2 hours now and were finally reaching their destination. Jess had gone through 3 playlists and was starting to get impatient. She had never liked being in the car, let alone driving one. The road ahead passed a lush pasture filled with gorgeous, pristine looking horses. They were here! She turned off onto the thin path, struggling to fit through the undergrowth. The parking lot was large and had enough space for atleast 20 lorries at a time, which was far more than her own at home. turning off the car and hopping down from the car she trailed her way to the main building, unsure if she was meant to speak to them before unloading. |

Dallas Winnow
19 || 2nd Year || SS Romping With The Hills aka Pops || Equitation, Eventing & Polo
Dallas was not in a very good mood, to say the least. Flying to the UK, with a horse who hates tight spaces, was not the most pleasant experience. She'd had to drive an hour and a half from Jordan Valley to Boise to even get to the airport, after packing all her things. Really though, the hard part was getting Pops in the shipping stall. The mare had NOT been happy at all. Dallas looked out the window as captain annouced they'd be landing soon, letting out a sigh. Only took like, 10 hours. When the plane finally landed and they were allowed to get off the plane, one of the crew members came to get her to get Pops out of the stall. She followed them out, finding her mare with her head sticking out of the shipping stall, ears pricking as she saw Dallas.
Dallas backed the mare out of the stall, looking over to see that the acadamy had sent a... something? To pick Pops up. It wasn't a trailer, it was like a van with a trailer combined. She shrugged, leading the mare into it. The driver offered to help her with her tack and suitcases, and Dallas accepted. Once that was all done, she hopped into the cab of the van-trailer, and they were off. Once they got there and Dallas looked up, her eyes widened. The place was huge. They must have expanded since the last year. Surronded by forests, multiple arenas, a huge barn, large pastures, the works. When the van-trailer was stopped, Dallas hopped out. The driver showed her how to open the trailer part. Some grooms came out to get her tack, and they offered to take Pops in too, but Dallas told them she'd prefer to keep the mare with her. |

Miren | 19 | 2nd year | Midnight | Dressage & Show jumping ----------------------------------------------------------- Miren woke up to the sound of birds chirping and a car door shutting, it was her older brother, well, her 4 older brothers.. yeah, she has a big family. She got up and went to her dresser, picking out a outfit to put on. It was the first day back to school, a school she actually enjoyed going to since she could bring Midnight. She got dressed then went downstairs as she saw Kai load up Midnight onto the trailer. She was being a bit stubborn but Kai got her loaded up. She went to the kitchen and grabbed a quick breakfast before heading outside to greet her brothers. After they got everything loaded up and ready to go, she got into the truck and they were off. It was a 2 hour drive which wasn't actually that bad but could get boring. Miren looked up from her phone and saw a large golden gate, they were here.. Once they parked, Miren got out and helped unload Midnight from the trailer, she was being a bit stubborn this morning but she finally settled down. Miren led her into the barn then locked her into her stall, Miren leaned against the stall door as she watched Midnight. This year was going to be fun, especially since her best friend, Choi, would be starting her first year... and they were roomates! This will definitely be an exciting year, hopefully more fun than her first year. |

Crew Tatem 19 | 2nd Year | Horse: Lord Leatherfair aka. Valegro | Show Jumping, Eventing, & Hunter Showing
・❥・ . After stepping out of the truck, Crew stopped to take everything in. The center itself was much, much larger than it had been the previous year - and oh, look, it looked like they added a horse walker next to the vets office. A light breeze feathered its way through the boys auburn-brown hair, his hand lifted to run through it as well. His attention then turned to the other students and their horses unloading from their trailers to check in. He smiled softly to himself, eyes downcast as he recalled the year previous' similar experience. He had been so anxious then... so different from who he was now. He'd gone through a lot in the final year of high school. Trouble. Out of trouble. Fallen in love... fallen out of love. He sighed, shaking his head and pulled his shoulders back as he turned to the silver trailer door that carried the dear stallion he'd be working with in his time here. Valegro. Crew's fingers pulled up the different hatches of the seperate door, pulling the first open and huffing out a deep laugh as the grey horses head immediatly found its way to his hand. "I know, I know." Crew's hand stroked the magestic creatures head gently before he pulled out the phone that lay in his pocket. Swiping up, the page he had pulled up before shown on his face. Valegro's stall number and the instructions for what to do as soon as they got there, great. Crew wasn't sure how they'd changed up the schedual hand out or stalling arrangment from the previous year, but he'd be finding out soon enough. Unclipping the rope restraining the stallion inside the trailer, Crew clipped on the horse's lead rope and slowly walked him down the ramp. It proved a bit of a struggle, a lot of coaxing and patience. The new scents, sounds, and sights had the stallion alert - head upright, ears perked and swiveling. But the two eventually made it off the trailer and to the cobblestone path leading up to the different barns. After a while of waiting in line for the papers that were being handed out, Crew recieved permission to head on in the Barn 2. There weren't too many horses to be worried that Valegro would become too ansty - and thankfully there werent any mares or other stallions meant to be assigned near the green male. Crew slid off his horse's halter swiftly, moving him into the stall with quiet ease. Crew leaned on the wood of the stalling. Now... just to go over the schedual. |

Jessica Dakota Foster ⚕︎ 2nd Year | 19 | F | A ce Sior la Rose | Show Jumping, Dressage & Cross Country ⚕︎ Jess had recieved her paper which listed where Rose was to be stalled, her dorm room and schedual. Rose was in Barn 1 alongside two horses, Pops and Diana. She pulled her jumper tighter, bringing the hood over her head as a gust of wind passed. The sound of Rose shifting impatiently in her trailer reminded Jess on what she had too do. Crumpling the paper in her pocket she unlatched the trailer door and stepped inside. Rose had her navy bamboo rug on, accompanied by her leather halter and blue floating boots. The mare snorted, her nostrils flaring and her eye whites showing from the corners. Rose stared out across the lot and let out a large, shrill whinny. Jess smiled and gave her a firm pat on the neck. More and moretrailers and trucks were arriving now and the lot was starting to fill up. Giving the mare a gentle tug on the leadrope they started making their way to the barn. The barn itself was incredibly impressive, with a large, polished open entrance that led to the aisle of stalls. Rose nickered softly in greeting to the horses that had been set up in their stalls. Her stall had been set up with a hay net, water and recently cleaned out bedding which meant that all Jess had to do was settle down her mare. The stall alongside Rose's apeared to be recently occupied, and glancing down to her paper, Jess noted the stall belonged to a 'Pops' and Dallas Winnow. Jess latched the stable door closed and slid Rose's halter off over her pink nose. Her mare lowered her head to the water bucket and began nosing around in it. "Try not to make a mess." She chuckled while undoing the straps on the cooler. Rose's coat rippled as she slpped off the cooler, revealing her coppery well-muscled coat. Rose seemed to have grown bored with the water and trudged over to the hay-net. Jess hung her blanket up on the copper rack and the halter on the hook that was stuck to the stall front. Finally she took off Rose's travel boots and hung them over the blanket, for now. Rose pawed at her bedding and lowered down to her knees. Great, now she would be filthy. The mare kicked up the bedding, rolling over onto her other side. "Seriously?" She huffed at the mare. Jess decided to leave her mare be and headed back to the trailer to unpack all the tack. |
