How I became a Brony & why Twilight Sparkle is my guardian angel.
Adorkable posted a blog entry in The Adorkable Life
When I was just a child, I had a special skill to make friends with almost anyone I met. People enjoyed speaking with me, and getting to know me better, I was like a "friendship magnet". Upon my middle and high school years, I lost this ability. I became shy, nervous, and I easily made bad first impressions, and lost friends as the days went by. Eventually, I found myself alone, not a friend in the world to run to. I was sad, scared, and friendless. This eventually turned the shining personality I had inside out, no longer was I good at making friends, but good at losing them. Girls never really spoke with me, people would laugh and mock me, and the awkward days of the beginning of school only made this worse. Friends reuniting, and I would just stand in a corner simply twiddling my thumbs. Things got so bad, I would skip lunch and go to the library every day just to feel relaxed. When I would get kicked out of the library for going too much, I would just go and sit in the restrooms, it was a miserable time. I fell into a deep depression from all of this. Imagine the complete opposite of how I am now, that's who I was. A smile was the rarest thing to see on my face. As all students, I eventually graduated high school. Not surprising, but I had no friends to celebrate with when walking across that stage to take my diploma. At the end, the hats would fly and as they fell, I was walking across the football field, ready to go home and start the boring adult life I live in now. The internet is just about the only place I can find friends at this point. During one of my daily Yahoo! News checks, I seen something about "Bronies". To this day, the article's topic remains blurred in my mind. Whatever it was, it gained my curiosity enough to do some research on these Bronies. After I found out it was grown men liking My Little Pony, it made me curious as well as disturbed. I wondered what made these people tick? But, I had a past with watching "girly" shows like Powerpuff Girls, so I thought I would give it a shot, just to see what I could find in My Little Pony. I actually resisted watching the show a few times at first, but eventually gave in and fell in love with the Mane 6. First, it was Applejack, the southern sweetheart. Eventually, it went through them all (except Rainbow Dash). Around the time of Equestria Girls, the lack of MLP between the Season 3 finale and the movie was torturing. I actually came an inch close to losing my Brony faith. I never really considered any of who I had picked before to be my literal favorites, but a phase where I would just switch out every few days. I told myself that Equestria Girls was my last shot. If this movie didn't revive my faith in MLP, I would probably lose it for good. By the way, during this time, Twilight Sparkle was my pending favorite, as I wasn't sure if I wanted her to be my favorite yet. After Twilight becoming a princess, it only pushed me closer to discovering my guardian angel waifu. When I seen the movie, there was something about "Helping Twilight Sparkle Win the Crown" that completely woke my faded Brony side. I was filled with all the rainbows and magic my body could hold. After viewing the movie, I felt as a dead battery being completely recharged. I had never been into MLP more than that particular moment. Something inside me changed from seeing that movie, along with Magical Mystery Cure. It was the moment every Brony experiences sooner or later, the real choosing of your favorite pony. While it may not seem as big of a deal as I'm making it, this choice completely changed me inside and out. I've always said that you don't choose your favorite pony, but they choose you. And this was the feeling you get that I was referring to. With this event of Twilight Sparkle becoming such a big part of my life, my personality finally bloomed. I was happy, energetic, eager to make new friends and turn frowns upside down. Sure it sounds nothing short from Pinkie Pie, but it was the friendship inside that made these feelings possible. I could finally make friends again, make people smile, and they were rewards of their own. I've been asked from time to time if I truly believe in magic, which just happened to ironically be Twilight's Element of Harmony, while also meaning Friendship. As to magic being a real thing, I most certainly believe in it. But not from the view of making things levitate and being able to bend the will of reality itself, I truly believe that magic itself is the feeling you get inside when you make a new friend. The happy, giddy feeling you get that can't do anything but make you smile! I couldn't have learned anything about this, the true magic of friendship, without the help of Twilight Sparkle. Because of this wonderful pony, I've discovered who I am on the inside, who I really am. Not set down by the stereotypes my parents have nailed to my forehead, but who my heart wants me to be. Who am I? This is me. A year had passed, and the feeling of my Brony side had once again, begin to feel a fading feeling. I was worried about this, I loved being a Brony, I loved My Little Pony (still do!), I didn't want this magic inside to end. After a long day of stressing over such a thing, I had finally passed out from exhaustion. Something magical happened that night. A dream that had seemed half reality and half imagination, I found myself awake, on my back, in bed, staring down my chest. I seen a small light appear above my stomach. Can you guess whom it was? Twilight Sparkle, of course. At this point, I knew I was dreaming, but I decided to see what would carry out from this "dream" I was experiencing. Once Twily appeared from the center of the light (she was about the size of my fist, maybe doubled), she slowly landed on my chest and folded her wings back. I played along with this dream and asked her what she was doing here. Twilight sat down and looked me in the eyes, and told me she knew what was going on, why I was so worried and stressed. She knew what she had caused, and why I didn't want it to leave. She calmly told me that it was okay to feel this way, these kinds of things happen to everyone, let it flow naturally. Don't force myself to be something I can't have a passion for. I told her how much I didn't want it to end, I remember a tear rolling down my cheek, I loved Twilight, I told her. She told me that she felt the same, and that no matter what happens, she would always be in my heart. There with me through thick and thin, Brony or not, Twilight would always be with me, because she loved me too. I remember as she said so, she began to fly away and fade into the same light she appeared in. I remember the struggle of lifting my arm, due to being asleep and unable to move, by the time by arm was up, I was awake, and Twilight was gone. All this stress had passed, I felt relieved. I layed back down and rolled over, saying "Thank you, Twily", and dosed back off to sleep. At this moment I knew that Twilight was just more than my favorite pony. She was my teacher, my friend, my guardian angel. -

What is happening with lil' old Thunder.
Thundershield posted a blog entry in Thundershield's Journal Thing
So, exams are finally over. I wouldn't be lying when I say that I did not get ANY serious sleep, but I guess I should have expected that when I found out I would have five exams, one for each week day. So blah blah blah math, science and english blah blah history and stuff. Canterlot is pretty much the only MLP community I've joined ever if you leave out Tumblr and fanfiction. I do feel bad though, I joined this community to get myself involved and meet new people but high school dragged me away and family problems kept me in place. School and family are two whole other stories. On top of that, I fractured some bones in my ankle and I was stabbed in my left arm, so that's always a thing. Now that I'm on summer break, I'll hopefully be able to at least get more involved into the forums and maybe even RP a little. For now, I'm working on a fanfic! *cue audience applause* And it's my first one! *audience goes wild* I'm having trouble trying to figure out what comes next *Audience disappointment* I called it Willing to Give, I have no idea where I'm going with it but I'm having fun writing it at least. Something about it just makes me smile whenever I think of the characters and the storyline. But I dunno, I'll see how it goes. At this point, it'll either crash and burn or have some people liking it. Anywho, you can look at my terrible Tumblr blog here: http://seriouspikachu.tumblr.com/ I also have a profile on FanFiction: http://www.fanfiction.net/~awritingpikachu Stay Electric My Friends - Thundershield -
Wubs up, everypony? This is my very first blog post [colour=#ff0000]EVER [/colour][colour=#000000]so I don't really expect too much out of this. For starters, I noticed that my friend was going darklordfoxhousenuts whenever he got a reply to his blog, so I figured that maybe there was something about it. So vroom goes the Skarmory; let's talk! [/colour] [colour=#000000] [/colour][colour=#000000]I'd like to point out that the new spoiler for the end of season three doesn't phase me in the least (Don't go screaming what it is in a comment; others might not want to know). I just figure that every single time they break the story they end up fixing it eventually. That's my only onion on the matter.[/colour] [colour=#000000] [/colour][colour=#000000] [/colour] Anyone else love the game Castlevania Curse of Darkness? WusSAT? On the original XBox! You know? I didn't think so. If you're one of them who does know what I'm talking about, then do this If not, then HOW DARE YOU!? The music is effervescent and fits perfectly to every single setting. Except Cordova Town. What's with that place? Whatever. Also, you know that weapon system? The one where you can make your own weapons (and armor) with stuff you get from the enemies that you have slew throughout your journey? I that! So many awesome weapons that you can create and so many rare ones, too. You have to play the game a certain way to get those. It's great! Okay to wrap this up, I want to make a request to any awesome artists out there willing and wanting to showcase their talents and want to get it out there! I would love to receive [colour=#0000cd]ANY [/colour][colour=#000000]drawings, colourings, paintings, stencils, to show to my friends on the everywhere. I'm all over the place and if I get a drawing nearly everyone ends up seeing it. Also, if anyone draws a Saint Germain pony then they get [/colour][colour=#008080]S[/colour][colour=#008080]P[/colour][colour=#008080]EC[/colour][colour=#008080]IAL S[/colour][colour=#008080]T[/colour][colour=#008080]UFF [/colour][colour=#000000]from me personally. (I make music, I draw, and a whole bunch of other ehgencengsn sgdhs, but my real passion lies in poetry, if you can see that being remotely associated with a big manly man of manliness like me [/colour][colour=#000000] = [/colour] [colour=#000000].[/colour]

Hey Everypony! Midnight here with yet another crossover. So, does anypony play Garry's Mod? And those who do, anypony ever play on a HLRP Server? This will be like that. For those of you thinking "What is this crazy colt talking about?" Well, I'll tell you. BACKSTORY TIME! It is in the future of Equestria. The Princesses have been overthrown by an unworldly alien race named "The Combine". Most ponies claim they came from the sky in giant machines, spreading destruction and fire throughout Equestria. Princesses Celestia and Luna attempted to defend their land, but were quickly defeated and taken captive, becoming slaves of the Combine. Now Equestria is ruled by a solitary being, known only as The Overlord. The Overlord has twisted and changed Equestria into a tyrannical dictatorship, which has destroyed all standing cities and villiges and formed new ones, named by number. You are a refugee from a destroyed former city, moved to one of the Combine Establishments known as City 18. As you get off the train, and walk onto the platform, you see giant screens with a pony's face on it. The pony on the screen says many boring things you don't pay attention to, and the only part of it you hear is: Welcome, to City 18. It's safer here. Awesome, right? Anyways, basicaly it's simaller to the HL2 universe: You are in a city ruled by an earth pony named "Dr. Breen" and suposedly he is the "Governer" of City 18. Now, not all of you will be citizens; you will also have the chance to be a Rebel or a Civil Protection Unit (sort of like the Red Police for Half Life) If this might appeal to you, then fill out the application below EDIT: If you have any questions reguarding lore for the RP, PM them to me. You will get a response Much faster that way.
