There was this girl I got to know –
– where I kept my first horse .
She was really, really sweet.
We always had such a great time together.
Then her horse was sold.
And she became quite sick.
She ended up killing herself.
5, 4, 3, 2, 1 … go!
It feels like she’s smiling at me from her cloud.
I’ve realized that you only live once.
I stopped taking life for granted.
I attend the Sundsgymnasiet College in Vellinge –
– and am part of the Equestrian Program.
We attend regular school 3,5 days a week.
The rest of the time, we’re at the stables with the horses,
where we practice and have lectures.
The best thing is when you’re cross-country jumping.
And you’re riding really fast.
When you feel like you’re one with the horse.
and it obeys your slightest command.
All you have to do is think what the horse should do next,
and it does.
The best feeling I’ve had in my whole life
was last fall, with my horse .
You could hardly steer him at the beginning.
But we still won the Swedish championship.
It was so awesome! All the work,
the endless hours of practice finally paid off.
Everybody will die one day.
When I’m old, I want to look back and feel proud.
And not feel like life has passed me by.
