The seventh night of the 2015 Dubai World Cup Carnival is led by the Balanchine for fillies and mares of 1,800 meters and the Dubai Millennium over 2,000 meters, both on the grass. Add in a pair of wildly competitive dirt handicaps plus a wild crapshoot over the straight 1,000 meters and it makes for a solid day of racing.

I feel that I don't share enough with you guys about my every day life. I feel that I only tell you about the major things that mean a lot to me. But there are small things that mean a lot as well. Today, I shared this story with my entire composition class. I didn't think that I felt as strongly about it as I did when I wrote it. But as I was standing at the front of the class with my zebra print shirt, my black skinnies, and my black flats on, I started to realize how nervous I actually was about it. In the middle of the story, I began to feel the familiar tingling of tears behind my eyes and nose and I began to cry. I was still frightened, still shaken, and felt as if I was still in that same place at that same time. After I'd finished the story, I realized that I just bared my soul to a whole bunch of strangers. I felt nervous about the feedback that I was about to receive from my peers. I wondered what they were going to say about me and where I even got the courage to share this with people that I am going to see every other day until the end of the semester. Then I realized that it was you. I share each and every story in my life that is hard for me to talk about with no one, but you. I may not have many followers, but that doesn't account for the amount of people who read my stories. I thank every one of you for giving me the courage to read my pieces in public and I thank every one of you for support. I began to receive my feedback and was handed this paper.

Asha,

     Wow! I have no words. That was gutsy and emotional and so powerful. You used the perfect reading voice - so much emotion and passion. You make good eye contact with the audience. I felt your story. Love it - do the same thing on presentation day. You're awesome - and this is a beautiful piece of writing.
