Josh going back to college 23/7/2012

Josh after a month back home with us is leaving tonite for the college in Melbourne. How time flies,the next holidays will be in November and that break will be longer. A new student will be accompanying him back to college LOL my wifey with all the excuses to go with Josh...have to unpack,decorate his room,cook rendang and freeze it for Hari Raya,YES talking about Raya this be 1 st time Josh be away from us after 19 years.Sedih jugak ingat2 tapi its for his career so redha aje lah insyaallah there be more Raya together.We spend quality time this holiday with him and he had all his favourite food even went to Ipoh for the assam fish head for the 1st day of buka puasa.I take this opportunity to wish all my muslim friends Selamat Berpuasa.

Josh back for a holiday/Sukma 2012

The Penang Equestrian team in SUKMA Melaka.

Joshua is back from the College for the semester break from 20/6/2012 to 23/7/2012 he will also be trying out to qualify for the Sukma 2012 Penang Equestrian team just like the last Sukma in Malacca insyaAllah.

Joshua's 1st stint at weanling sales Oakland Junction Melbourne

Joshua had his 1st experience at a Weanling sales at Oakland Junction horse sales complex by Inglis Bloodstock. Horses are referred to as weanling between the time they are weaned from their mothers and turn one year old. After they have turned one, they are referred to as yearlings.Joshua's journey starts on Saturday 19th May 2012 to a farm in Winchelsea Victoria and then onwards to Melbourne with the horses.The sale starts on Tuesday 22nd May 2012 and they returned to College in the evening.It was an experience second to none for 4 days grooming and getting the weanling ready for the sale. He also met Gaye Gaucci at the sales and had a long chat with her.I spoke to Peter Heagney an old friend with the Inglis group about the possibility of Joshua going to see him and say hello and Peter was delighted of the possibility of seeing Joshua, but as in any sales everyone was busy and so Joshua missed seeing Peter Heagney. There will be other opportunities i am sure in the not too distant future.In Melbourne Joshua stayed at F1 hotel near Tullamarine Airport.Joshua went with a college mate also name Joshua who hails from Melbourne now studying the same course at SWTAFE Glenormiston.I am sure its an experience money cannot buy.Well done son we are proud of you.Alhamdullilah all went well,Insyaallah.

Josh horse "STEALTH KNIGHT" at college

Josh was given a horse by leading Warrnambool Trainer Jarrod McLean to look after and ride at his college. The horse name is Stealth Knight.After the 2 weeks semester break in April2012, where he joined the Mclean team which gave him a first hand look at a racing stables and a wealth of experience,he was offered the horse to look after,when he is away from the college,he will sent the horse back to the Mclean stables.As long as he is in college the horse can be his to look after.It was surely a kind gesture by Mr McLean.
Josh is all excited and will be kept busy with doing his assignments and looking after the horse.Knowing Josh he is able to cope and happy he has a horse to ride and care for, afterall as he is going for his Advance Diploma in Horse Management and a horse to care for and ride is good for him.Good riding son and insyaallah all will be good.
