I found Flash's stall, and saw that he still had his halter on. I remembered last times, he practiclly bucked me off. I carefully put the saddle and bridle on him, which he seemed to not worrry about. I led him out to the arena and did all those things before I hopped on. Immidiatly, Flash was hopping around like crazy! I wouldn't call it bucking though. He pranced around like some inlaw was on his back. I lightened up on the reigns and I didn't squeze quite so tight. Flash calmed down a little, but still pranced around like an energetics pony. The little colt wasn't even going around the arena right! So, I headed him around with the reigns, but he never listened to me. So, i decided that this could just be a time when he got used to the saddle and me on top of him. After about half an hour or so, I dismounted Flashdance, and led him back to his stall. After I untacked him, I brushed him down well, and gave him a sugar cube and a small carrot. I left his stall, closing the door gently
~Good-bye Flashdance~
