Rant about something or tell a story.

Hmmm... I have a strong opinion on people buying horses and stuff. Honestly my situation was unique to me and me only and it happened to be the right time in my life to get a horse. Just because I was 16 or in grade 10 or whatever doesn't mean any 16 year old is qualified to buy a horse. It frustrates me also when people expect their parents to bend over backwards to buy them a horse or that talking to their parents once or twice about it will make them get them a horse. I think some people took the wrong idea from my "convince your parents" to buy you a horse video, that I just said hey can I buy one instead of lease and that was that. It was much different. I had a job and was making a steady income enough to support the board and lessons on my own. I was months away from my G2 allowing me to drive myself out to the barn and I was responsible had good grades and my parents thought that it was still really REALLY unrealistic. I just explained the cost of everything and they agreed that I needed something different that would allow me to progress more and honestly the cheapest option (and my favorite) was to buy a horse. I new that this would be the ultimate challenge and allow me to learn the most. Of course I'd have to start from square one because I was intentionally looking for a greenie but that excited me and my dad really got excited with the process too. Long story short I think that people need to take a step back and think is this really realistic at this moment in time. hahaha

I just started YouTube and my video already has a thumbs down ! I have to film on my IPad , (TBH the quality isn't that bad ! ) I'm an equestrian YouTuber ( FYI ? ) and its really making me feel down. Like I know starting a YouTube you're going to get hate ! but any advice to overcome being upset?:)

There's always gonna be people that don't like you and people that do :) just gotta except it!

(Con't) And I have told her that if she doesn't want my help she need to get a trainer but she won't even do that and I'm so stuck on what to do without ruining our friendship.

If she really doesn't want your help and you tried your best just let it go and let her make her own mistakes and figure things out for herself! At least you know you tried your best but some people can't take advice from others and you can't let it get to you!
