Five years ago (2003) - Falun, Sweden. Long-distance relationship with Boyfriend. Dreamt about finishing my teaching degree so I could get out of hell-hole no.1. Realised that the promises of endless job-opportunities was just a load of crap as all counties had to save money and not employ any new teachers. Luckily I had another year to do and then I got the best job E V E R!
Ten years ago (1998) - Philadelphia, PA, USA. Working as an au-pair. Huge responsibility and made me grow up and also decide on being a teacher. I also realised that I really wouldn't mind twins as the ones I cared for were lovely and their older brother and sister were awesome too. Was proposed to twice but only really touched by the proposal from the 3-year old.
Fifteen years ago (1993) - Home, Sweden. I only thought about horses, horses and horses. 9th grade and had probably just applied to Major in Civics (social studies) in High School. Don't remember much apart from spending all my time riding and mucking out stalls.
Twenty years ago (1988) - Home, Sweden. Mom was expecting my little brother. I got my second pony. My grandmother (mormor) died of cancer which kinda sucked. I remember that summer as being really nice and sunny and therefore spent a lot of time at the pool centre and going for long rides (hacking) in the forest where it was nicely shaded. Started nagging my parents for a dog of my own - it only took another 3 years and then I had one!
Summary: I think I can safely say that horses have been a major part of my life. I've had a really nice/good life so far and I hope it continues that way! The nagging about a dog (and later horses) have already started but this time it won't take me 3 years!
