First XC School

Learning how to be an eventer in 6 days is tough work. My trainer and I went down to Galway Downs to school Ed. Man, was he good.

Yay... I'm done with finals. So incredibly relieved. Yesterday hurt. I had 3 different finals in 6 hours.

It started off with swine. The first portion was identifying diseases, their type, and the infectious agent that causes them. Can you say isospora suis or actinobaccillus pleuropneumoniae? It's okay, I can't either. It was then followed up by 3 essay questions. Each of them were beefy. The topics I had to write on were biosecurity and All-In-All-Out, protein quality in...
