well, what are you trying to create, a mood, a style, or omething else?

D.Schäferhund · 05-11-2006, 11:08 PM

Oh what a nice thread....
Ok Lwet me try
i was a kid that stuck to herself, beeing allover and nowhere.
loved horses all my life.
When I kow what
i want nobody can stop me. that is how i got my best buddy "Herkules" my first horse. I got him with 13. and nobody had to twll me what to do. i just did it. It was first priority.
I fought for him, he was as stubborn and independent as i was, and we had a rough start, we both weren't very accepted, young girl young horse that must go wrong, but we were doing great, and that made a lot of people jelous, and they seperated us . so we were to loners. but we proofed them wrong. we were good and could beat them all. without all the seminars and courses, i just couldn't afford them. But we learned a lot from each other, and this thought me to be happy about a new comleted task, i didn't need to win anything, but we did.
This way i learned to fight, not really for me but for the two of us.
then I fought for a Youth center, for our peergroup. that took us 8 years, and we did it. i never went there because I went of to study, but once again i prooved them wrong, i can do it.
Then i got Kessy and she was bad , when I got her, she tore up a dog, and was since then known as the killerdog. with a little help from friends we made it, but still had to fight against rumors. but we did it.
so i learned to fight for something, but never really for myself.
so I have a hard time taking compliment, or listening to poeple that say i do a great job. i just can't belive it.
That makes it so hard for me to open a business, eventhough people say i really shoul , because I got it.
i need it written down black on white to see that i have the abilities and even then it is hard for me... that's why i haven't opened my horseriding therapy and right now i can use my "dogttaining- apprenciship" to not do it ;o)
Well but I guess i have some good sides, too.
I am veeery paitent, and my best frient tell me I can meke people doing things, they really "don't want" to.
beeing because they are affrais or ashamed of something.
I can be very stubborn and i always want to do the right thing, eventhough it is different from what others do and it means to go against the grain.
sometimes i find myself in leading positions eventhough i didn't intend to be there, but appearantly i I attract that.
Never been an official class leader but foundmyself leading discussions.

That doesn't make a whole lot of friends, but that is ok.

I am very soft hearted, and that gets me in trouble often.
I love arts, pencile drawings, wich i don't get to do too often anymore, and like taking pictures, of animal of course.
Have the tendency to want to do everything perfect(or as i think it is supposed to be, in my standards).
wich makes it hard for me to aknowledge that i am good in something.
Yeah taking compliments i was never good in. and sometimes I feel bad when somebody makes acompliment and i don't know how to respond, and so hurt the other persons feelings.What makes me feel bad agijn.
My husbnd complains that i worry to much....about everything.
I think i have two sides one soft and sensitive and one ready to fight.
I have to admit now i am a litle lost have nothing to fight.
that feels wierd....
i have a problem fitting in shemes or press my animals in a pattern.
Wanted to do my ridinginsrtuktor, but refused to press my horse in a sheme just to please a judge.
Same trouble i have now with the SchH. but i think my girl deserves a title and she can do it, probaly not very much like the judges want it to see, but perfect enough for me.
I hate pressing animals in a sheme, they are individuals. and as long as they can do what i ask them, too it is fine with me, they are perfect in their way and i don't care if the nose is a centimeter mor up or down than a rulebook says.

i am more an outsider and myself then anything else.
what ever myself is...
i haven't figured that out yet....
so for all of you who know who you are, this is what i can tell about me.
pretty wied you think??? wellcome to my world!!!
I think so, too!
I guess i am still searching for myself!
Hope you all found youself allrady, i tell you that isn't fun!!!;o)

***MazieDog*** · 05-12-2006, 12:05 AM

What an interesting thread.

Probably the thing I like best about me is my ability to joke around with nearly anyone within 5 minutes of meeting them. For example: At the store or a restaurant when they tell you to "Have a nice day", I look them right in the eye and say sternly, "Don't tell me what kind of day to have!" .. That always gets a laugh.. Or when they bring the check at Dennys or something, I say, "I didn't order that; it tastes like paper!" ... A lot of this is rubbed off from my dad.. he does it a lot, too.

I also like the fact that I don't have a short temper, but when I do get mad, you'll know it.. I'm not afraid to tell someone off, even if they're bigger than me. :P Waking me up from a deep sleep will almost put me in a crabby mood, but bribery will quickly fix that.. (bribery contains: coffee, chocolate, food... or, the best one of all, cheesecake... cheesecake will put me in a good mood instantly. LOL)

Some learn by reading. Some learn by observation...Others have to pee on the electric fence themselves...yes, I'm one of those... LOL.. I'm accident prone; I can find a way to fall flat on my face even when I'm laying down... I fell down the stairs one day when I was about 7, head first, backwards.. When I got to the bottom, I stood up and shook it off... My mom thought I had broke my neck, so she calls 911.. They looked at me, said I was fine, and left. A couple hours later, I went for a bike ride up a hill.. I came zooming down doing about 30mph, hit a pot hole and went flying off the bike. I walked away from that, amazingly. I like my ability with withstand pain.. I've never had a broken bone nor surgery for anything... which really surprises me.. With all the accidents and screw-ups I've had, it's no wonder I'm not dead yet.. LOL

Hmm.. What else... Oh! I like my way with animals... It really annoys a friend of mine, which makes it even better.. His uncle's cat, Onyx, is the meanest cat he's ever seen. I saw him on the couch one day, went over and scratched him on the head.. he gets up and starts meowing at me, so I picked him up and he couldn't purr loud enough.. My friend saw that and called me names.. LOL.. Then my friend's mom has a parrot who he wants nothing to do with because it always bites him.. He says to me, "Yeah, Juanita will bite you and draw blood if she doesn't know you!" I was standing in their living room, Juanita was sitting on his mom's shoulder.. We were chatting and all of a sudden, the parrot goes, "Hiii!", looks at me, and sticks her foot out.. My friend goes, "Don't do it! She'll bite you!" Even his mom said it.. I figured why not, I've been bitten before... so I stuck my arm out.. Juanita jumped on and went right up to my shoulder and sat there happily.. She even showed some colors and gave me kisses.. LOL.. My friend called me more dirty names and gave me the finger.. hahahaha.. That bird has a sense of humor too... like she understands and comprehends everything you say to anyone... I cracked a joke about my friend and before anyone could laugh, the bird started to laugh! She knew it was funny!

Okay, I think that about covers it.. hehe

My turn:

I am definetly not a shy person. I can walk up to anyone and intruduce myself. I am not scared of anything. I will try anything once. This has gotten me into some tight squeezes and a tiny bit of trouble growing up.

I am an outgoing person and I enjoy company but I really like my alone time too. I grew up in a family of 9 kids so I REALLY enjoy and crave my alone time. I love to read and I can go through a 700 page book in a day. I like to learn about the world I live in. My husband says I am curious to a fault. I always want to know how things work and I always ask WHY? I used to take everything apart when I was a kid, to see how things worked. My dad had to hide the screwdrivers from me. I love to put things together without reading directions and this drives my husband crazy. I just want to see if I can do it....I hate following directions, I want to do it and figure it out for myself. I am told I have a stubborn streak a mile wide but I dont!

shandoggy1 · 05-12-2006, 04:41 AM

I am very caring and compassionate
I am very stubborn and strong willed
I love to joke and make people laugh and usually succeed at doing so
I am also the type that when I set my mind to something I do it!
I have a big mouth and know how to use it

I refuse to let anyone walk all over me

I am very athletic and walk 3 to 4 miles a day and love to hike in the woods.
I never thought to think of myself as a people person because I have worked with animals for so long but I really have become a person who loves everyone I meet and I am very out going and friendly.

linnie · 05-12-2006, 05:38 AM

well all of the posts so far have shown us to have something in common.
I hope many more will join in.
I feel a lot closer just reading the persons you see yourself as.
I do believe that many of us spend a lot of time trying to find out who we are. I didnt truly find out my strengths till I was 50 Zoe I hope you dont wait as long honey, you sound like a sweetie to me,just remember that it takes time to find that special something and dont forget to keep hunting for your niche in life

seems to me the great thing dog lovers have in common is loyalty and compassion.
I am proud to have you all as my friends

Pugdawg1 · 05-12-2006, 10:20 AM

Words for me....

mellow
shy
reserved
loner
detests complications
active... have become slightly addicted to mtn biking, and the pugs and I walk miles and miles.
I tend to observe. Not much for jumping in the middle of things. Though lately.. that's been changing.
I have a small fear of commitment (i.e. relationships.. I stay away from them)
