New Year, New Experiences, and New Expectations!
Year 2008 started with brilliance! Snow! It snowed beautifully on New Year's Eve, so Asta and I were out playing in the snow. We brought one of the puppies with us and Asta and her had a great time. I took some pictures on Asta and Ginza...
It snowed a lot. It snowed so much that I could build a snow dog, a snow bull terrier! I call it, or her, Olga, and she was my lovely white princess! My chance to get a white bull terrier...
...but the "snow-happiness" did not last for a long time. The snow melted quickly and a brown, muddy law entered and knocked on our door. *sigh* Not a beautiful sight. Well, that simply leads me to switch subject!
This new year, this new year of expectations has begun! Asta and I have started to train better and more often, than last year. It is far from enough, but it sure is a start! We have made some progress when it comes to the obedience, but sometimes she is far from listening to me...
We have also started a little to practice "searching". I do not know what you call it in English, but I can tell you what it is all about; The dog should search in the forest after people who are "lost" (really, they are hiding, but we pretend that they are lost!) and then show these people to the owner. Well, it is a bad explanation, but I hope you get a grip of it at least!
It is not only Asta who has tried something new this year. I have also done something I have never done before! I tried out for a theatre education ("BA Programme in Theatre") in Gothenburg. I passed the first test, the first audition, and I was very happy and extremely pleased with myself! I am also very pleased with my second audition, but I will not know if I did pass until 25th of February!! Or, at latest I will know then, but it is truly painful to wait. Well... fingers crossed!!
