"Success is not final; failure is not fatal: It is the courage to continue that counts." 

— Winston S. Churchill

On/off activity depending on my motivation and university semesters. 

Final year units are so much extra work rip. 

Here are the basics:

• My EC is private.
• If the horse isn't in sales, it's not for sale.
• Will accept any friend requests.
• Always open to a conversation, just know I can be slow to respond.
• My main breeding focus is my Welsh with my team Awakening. 
• Second focus is breeding Marwari unicorns in my solo project Masquerade
• I have a habit of starting other projects and then losing motivation rip my ambition is stronger than my motivation
• Always happy to answer and share information about my knowledge of the game. 

My username was created a decade ago, and ironically still relevant. As it suggests, I am an avid collector of model horses. I never had much access to real horses as a child so to fill the void I found myself a herd of plastic ones. In 2023 I re-found my love (and addiction) to collecting again, and my collection of Schleich is now over 400 different horses. I also love some of the CollectA and WIA models, but Schleich is definitely my main collection. I also have a growing shelf of Breyers, I have finally joined the dark side and become a fan of the traditionals.

As for me personally, I’m a female adult currently attending university. My studies lie in criminology and political science so that is an interest of mine - I find the topics fascinating to understand.

While I love horses, birds are my number one. Got a flock of 'tiels that rule my life and I adore them madly. Any kind of bird, especially parrots, absolutely love. Made my avatar one of the baby cockatoos that I photographed a while ago. He was very cute.

Fun Howrse info:

To calculate IBS of foals, assuming both parents are 100BLUP: Add parent GP together, divide by 10. Times by 1.5. IBS can vary between .96 (min) and 1.04(max) of this result. Closer to the 1.04 is most desirable.

Most competitions are broken down into 45/30/20, being percentages of the three skills required in each discipline. The last 5% is age. Show Jumping is the only exception to this as it's broken down into 45/25/25 meaning both it's second and third skill (dressage and speed) are weighted the same.
