They always say I look like --Mandy is a pretty girl. Her hair, fine and in thick sheets, arranged expertly and attractively about her head, is well cared for, that she either wears up in a bun or just down.
She has a cute heart shaped face with sweet girly cheekbones that really come out when she smiles. She has, according to some people, the prettiest smile- a really girly smile. Sharp, brown
eyes, a forgettable nose, and a strong jaw make up for an unmistakably beautiful and intelligent face that anybody could stare at all day, they can usually stop any boy dead when she flutters her long dark brown eyelashes.
Mandy only stands at 5ft 4" and weighs around 118 pounds which gives her a slim physique although she does have muscle People think she is a lot younger than she is due to her small height but she doesn't mind and she doesn't mind much that she's quite small, although she hates it when people think they can ruffle her hair because they are a lot taller than her, mostly the boys think she's cute because she's small.Most of the time she wears black eyeliner and a little eye shadow. She loves her makeup and makes sure she gets it perfect before going out anywhere; she always likes to look her best.

Mandy can’t stand to see her friends or anyone for that matter being bullied around. Mandy believes in giving everyone a second chance

I Came From Hunter Caliva/45/lawyer
Marie Caliva/deceased
I Share My Dna With None
I Come From Calgary
But I Live Here Now Pinewood
This Is Who I was --Mandy was born on January 14th 1990. Mandy’s parents lived in Calgary, Alberta, Canada on a small farm where her mother trained for the Calgary Stampede every year and her father was a big time lawyer that owned his own firm and had never lost a case. When Mandy’s mother gave birth to her she died. The doctors did everything they could to save her but she had just lost so much blood. Mandy’s father didn’t know what to do with Mandy.
He didn’t want to give her up for adoption. So he took a year off work to take care of her on his own. After the first year her father was ready to go back to work so he took Mandy with him to the office so he could work. The year before Mandy turned two her father sold their small farm and bought a very nice house in a small neighborhood in Calgary so that he was closer to work and could take Mandy to Daycare.
2 years later, when Mandy was 4 she started to ask about getting riding lesson. Her father wasn’t sure at first, but eventually he said yes and Mandy was so happy. Mandy wanted to be just like her mother even if she didn’t get to know her mother. So Mandy’s father took her to an old friend of her mother’s that had a boarding/riding school for both English and western riding. The first time she rode she was hooked on it she didn’t want to just ride western she wanted to try English too.
Her father wasn’t very sure about this because it would cost him more money but Mandy begged her father so that she could have an extra lesson a week and he said yes. It went on like this for 7 years and Mandy competed at small shows on the schooling ponies. She did good the first couple years of coming in 3rd, 4th and 5th but three years after she started coming in 1st, and 2nd.
On Mandy’s 12th birthday she asked if she could get a horse. It was always her dream to own a horse of her own. Mandy’s father now knew horses were a big thing in Mandy’s life and he said they would start looking for a horse in a bit. Her father went to talk with her riding instructor to see if she was ready for a horse. Mandy’s instructor thought she was and offered to go with them to look for a horse.
They had looked everywhere for a horse but they couldn’t seem to find one. Mandy said she wanted to connect with them but she just couldn’t find the right one, until they went to a barn that was full of race breed quarter horses, hunter jumpers and barrel horses. Mandy started looking around; she rode a lot of horses that day.
But it wasn’t until she went to a stall near the back end of the barn that wasn’t very well lit, but she looked in the stall to see what kind of horse it was. He was a palomino quarter horse from what she could see. She studied him for a minute, he had his head turned to the back and wasn’t paying attention to anything. Mandy looked down at the nameplate on the door. It read Let's Get Crazy. Mandy called out to the horse lightly calling his name. He turned his head towards her and she could see that the light in his eyes wear gone.
Mandy went to the adults and asked if she could try the horse named Let's Get Crazy. The man looked at her and said that he was a 2 year old and only trained in the basic like walk jog lope. Mandy said it didn’t matter she wanted to try him. The man went to grab Let's Get Crazy. The moment the man took Let's Get Crazy out of the stall, Mandy’s riding instructor and father could both tell that this man had beaten the horse because the horse looked afraid of the man.
Mandy asked where the tack was because she wanted to tack him up herself. It took Mandy a few minutes to tack up as soon as the saddle was on Let's Get Crazy or Playboy as Mandy was starting to call him, he started to tense up. Mandy didn’t know why but she just started to pet him and talk to him it seem to calm him down a bit.
When they where in the arena Mandy tightened the saddle a little bit and went to get on her riding instructor helped her get on with him being 16.0hh and Mandy being 5’0” after she adjusted herself in the saddle she could feel that he was tensing up again but she thought it was just that he wasn’t warmed up so Mandy took him though his paces she walked, jogged, and loped him and he was still tense.
Mandy looked at her father and asked if he and the man would leave for a minute and talk. After the two left Mandy started to take Playboy though the paces again and this time he started to relax now that the man was gone. When she asked him to lope, he went on to his wrong lead Mandy had stopped him and when she did, he tensed up again knowing he did something wrong but Mandy just started to pet him until he relaxed.
When he relaxed Mandy asked him to lope and he had gotten the right lead this time. Thou all this Mandy’s instructor had watch and seen that there was something special between his horse and rider. When Mandy was done, the man and her father come back and Mandy said she liked him very much. After a lot of bargaining the man final sold the horse for $3000. Mandy got all of the stuff that came with Playboy and they loaded him up into the trailer and took him home to Mandy’s riding instructor’s Boarding Stable.
the first year that Mandy owned Playboy was that she worked on gaining his trust and she even worked him to do both Western and English. When Mandy did finally get Playboy to trust her they forged an unbreakable friendship. Playboy was still afraid of men but Mandy was getting her father to help out more with getting Playboy used to men not beating him, but it would take Playboy along time to trust her father.
Over the next 4 years Mandy trained Playboy in Dressage, Show jumping, Eventing. Mandy worked hard riding Playboy everyday and never missing a riding lesson that was once a week. Over the years Mandy made friends with a couple of girls from school.
When Mandy turned 16 they started going to parties and that’s where Mandy met her first boyfriend, Ken Anderson. He was nice to her at first but then he started to beat her and eventually he wanted something and he raped her. Mandy didn’t know what to do, she didn’t want to tell her father what happened, but when she did, her father was very upset so he took her ex. boyfriend to court and had him sent to jail for abuse and rape.
Mandy didn’t date again for a long time she was concentrating on her riding. Until one day at a Fall Show when Mandy was still 16, she met another boy by the name of Matt Hardland. He was 17 and a Show Jumper. Matt showed Mandy that not all guys are bad. They started dating 3 weeks after the Fall Show. She knew her father would be upset but anyways. during the first 3 months that Mandy and Matt where dating, Matt had given her a promise ring. Mandy's life then took a turning point on one dark stormy night Mandy and Matt were coming home from watching a show jumping clinic being done by a famous show jumper. They were hit by a transport truck that was driving on the wrong side of the road. Matt was killed and Mandy survived with a broking nose, both calf bones in her right leg broking in 4 spots and a fractured knee and a few torn ligaments. The doctor told Mandy she wouldn’t be able to ride for a long time, but Mandy proved the doctors wrong and started riding 3 ½ months later. Mandy worked playboy hard when she got back because she want to get him back into shape. Now that it's 6 months later, Mandy is moving to Pinewood

I Am Awesome The only sound that could be heard in the early morning fog, was the sound of Mandy’s spurs clicking as she walked to the pasture to get her two horses, Gambler and Aces so that they could train for a bit. Mandy scanned the pasture to see where they would be, sure enough she could see that they where in the far side of the pasture. So before calling for them she looked around to make sure no one was there. Mandy yelled out “Gambler, Aces, come on boys!” Both heads of a chestnut Quarter Horse and a black and white Paint shot up and looked in the direction of Mandy.
Mandy called out again “Come on boys” and like a bullet, both geldings took off towards Mandy and as they reached the gate. They both come to a sliding stop, they both stood still as Mandy opened the gate and clipped the lead ropes to their halters. When they where out of the pasture Mandy grabbed a handful of Aces mane and swung herself on to his back. Mandy adjusted herself on him before nudging him gently with her spurs. She turned him onto the path that led to the barn, as she pulled on Gambler’s lead saying “come on, lazy bones” on the way to the barn, Mandy looked at her watch it was only 6:30.
She would maybe have time to herself in the Barrel arena. Barrel Racing was Mandy’s best event. So she wanted to practice more on it today. When she reached the barn, Mandy asked Aces and Gambler to stop. Mandy swung her leg over Aces head and dismounted. She took them to their stalls so she could feed them their grain. Mandy started mixing their grain.
After Mandy fed the boys she went to the take room grab Aces barrel bridle and not the saddle. She wanted to practice without the saddle today. She opened his stall door and walked in with the grooming kit. Mandy just quickly run a brush over him and picked his hooves out and checked his shoes before grabbing his bridle. She slid his halter off his head held his bridle out so he could put it on himself.
Aces dropped his head into the bridle and Mandy slipped it on over his ears and adjusted it so it would be comfortable. She opened the stall door and led Aces towards the Arenas. All that could be heard in the barn was the sound of metal shoes hitting the floor in a rhythm of clip-clop, clip-clop. As they went by the rows of stall some horses would stick their heads out and watch them go by. Mandy stopped Aces outside the barn, and swung onto his back.
She then nudged him into a walk towards the arenas. When Mandy got there, she opened the gate and asked Aces to walk though. She closed it after Aces was though. Mandy looked around the arena to see that the barrels where still setup. She smiled as she could feel Aces shifting under her; she knew he had spotted the barrels.
She held him still for a minute; he was getting impatient, so he started pawing the ground. “Alright, alright, baby we’ll start in a minute” Mandy said as she patted his neck. She nudged he her spurs and asked for him to walk. He started to calm down after a few circles, she asked for a jog and she shifted her weight on her seat bone and Aces did a small circle and she shifted her weight to the other and he did the same thing again. Mandy smiled and patted his neck. She then pushed him into a lope.
They did a couple figure eights, and circles before Mandy asked Aces to whoa. She then turned Aces to the barrel pattern. She nudged him with her spurs and lightly pulled the reins so that they could circle before heading for the first barrel. As soon as Aces came out of the circle, he took off for the first barrel running full tilt. When they came up to the barrel Mandy grabbed onto his mane, shifting her weight to the right, and pulling lightly on the reins causing Aces to swing his body tightly around the barrel.
As Aces came out of the first barrel, he headed for the second and he over turned it a bit. But kept going. Mandy nudged him more to go faster; he dug into the ground with his powerful hindquarters as Mandy guided him the third barrel, as Aces came around the barrel, he ran straight to the end of the arena and came to a sliding stop when Mandy said whoa. Mandy smiled as she looked down at Aces and patted his neck, telling him he was a good boy. She slide off his back to check his shoes, she had forgotten to put his bell boots on so she was just checking to make sure that he didn’t hurt himself when he was running.
Thanks Isa for helping =]
