This Is Who I am

This is my first blog post so I'll start by introducing myself and telling you a bit about who I am.
My full name is Dakota Jayde Mitchener, 17 years old, 5'5, Blonde hair, blue eyes. I was born in San Bernadino, California and moved to Canada with my mom when I was only 3 months old. I have lived in Osoyoos off and on throughout my life. I have been to 10 different schools, elementary and high schools included. I started off here in Otown in Kindergarten, kinda funny how I ended up here for my grad year.
My biggest passion are animals. Horses in particular, I got my first horse for my third birthday. His name was Choco, he was as old as time, dark brown with a big heart and had nothing but love for a tiny little blonde girl. Even as a little girl, I didn't like riding with a saddle, I preferred to ride Choco bareback, with only a bridle. I used to barrel race, but had to stop because my horse had to be retired. Though I was a complete rookie, my mare was not and took me all the way to the top on many occasions.Apart from the big horses, I have two miniature horses with a little one on the way; three fat goats; 3 orphan cats and finally 5 dogs (4 at my moms, 1 at my grandparents).
I also love photography, taking pictures of animals and landscapes are my favorite. I also really enjoy reading, I love murder/horror genre books, but I will read literally anything. My favorite movies are horror flicks, I crave the adrenaline rush, being scared is definitely a thrill.

After I graduate, I am planning on taking next year to work full time and get my feet on the ground and hopefully find out what I want to pursue as a career.
