Day 4 daily requirement: Link an image of an in-hand draft horseI assume this is what it meansOptional: write a short story on your raj's point of viewThe light shining in blinded my sleepy eyes, and i leapt up. The sky was still slightly dark, but some others were already awake. How could anyone sleep soundly today? Today was the first day the new foals, including me, would be competing in the horse contests! We would be judged on a lot of things and if we won, we could get pretty ribbons. The stable door opened, and our owner walked in, carrying a brush and some soap so she could clean us up one last time before the competition. I'm so excited! I hope I win something!
(its supposed to sound childish i guess, since he was a foal back then?)
Optional: coloured full bodythe unicornOptional: write a taleDerp tale for acorn meets unicorn:
Acorn wants to be a unicorn. Not because they rhyme, but because Acorn believes unicorns are magical, legendary creatures that can do anything. However, he was disappointed by his mother's’ reaction when he told her his dream, who snapped irritably, “No, Acorn. Don’t be dumb, you are not a unicorn and you will not be one.” Acorn, despite his mom’s remark, was determined to find a unicorn and turn into one.
And so he set off. It was a bright day, and there was a rainbow. Pawing his “How to find a unicorn for dummies” book, he flipped clumsily (for his hooves were not made for this task) through until he reached page 236. Squinting, he read, “At the end of the rainbow is a pot of gold and a unicorn. The unicorn will guard the pot of gold. DUH.” Acorn pondered for a second, considering what he had just read. That seemed very sensible, much more sensible than what he could think of at the moment, at least. He peered at the end of the rainbow, and felt a sudden excitement. Finally, he was going to be a unicorn! Excitement overwhelmed him, and he packed his things into his small waist pouch he stole from the barn, turned and galloped towards the rainbow.
The road was long and tiring, no doubt, but he persevered, driven by the thought of the unicorn. He galloped through forests, deserts, and paddled through lakes and ponds. He never stopped chasing, until he saw a gleaming light at the end. Excitement overwhelmed him as he dived for it, eager to catch a glimpse of the mythical unicorn. However, when the light finally cleared, he felt confused. There was nothing there! No pot of gold, no unicorn. Acorn cocked his head to the side, puzzling over this fact, and quickly opened his book for dummies. Rereading the page carefully, it said, “You actually went for the rainbow? Interesting. Now try to find a gleaming pool somewhere near to the end of the rainbow. The unicorn might be swimming.” Acorn thought for a second, before placing the book back in his bag. Looking around, he caught sight of a water source and hurried towards it. Yes, there was a pool with water that seemed to have an unearthly glow. Looking around, he saw no unicorn, until…
A strange figure rose to the top of the pool. It was the unicorn! Or at least, it looked like one. It had a corn tied to the top of its head, and fake wings strapped on its back. Acorn winced at the unicorn, for even he could feel its embarrassment. The unicorn quickly shook its mane and raised one eyebrow at Acorn, as if challenging him for the stalk of corn. Acorn, feeling both awkward and disappointed at the same time, back away quickly, not wanting to be involved in a fight with the ‘unicorn’. Now, he finally understood why his mother didn't want want him to be a unicorn.
(another derp fact is that its exactly 501 words, or almost the minimum count)
