Before I had gotten into MLP, I had been doing a bit of research into topics such as addiction, parenting in psychological development and human behavior. From this I was seeing how good humans can be. Some time later, I gave the show a chance and that's what got me convinced that bronies could have the potential to do some real good in the world. With Dr. Gabor Maté's scientific but valid hand to matters of addiction, of chronic illness, Dr. Gordon Neufeld's expansive knowledge on parenting and
Melanoma has to be one of my newer OCs and because of that, I don't have much on him other than appearance. As for that...
What distinguishes this Changeling is that he has dark spots scattered over his body. It's how he got the name Melanoma.
What's being worked on right now is the personality. Some traits include gentleness, optimism and melancholia.
For inspiration, I've been turning to certain experiences I've had playing the Metroid series and see what could fit him. The water l
It's simply amazing how bitter I've grown in much of this fandom over the years. I could go into detail about it but I don't believe that anyone wants to hear it. What I notice is that there is this grotesque lack of self-honesty in this fandom. Find comfort in the fact that this is something from presumably all over the world. The reason for such disappointment is that I entered into this fandom with high hopes only to see it torn to pieces over multiple events, over long stretches of time.
Erythema's personality differs depending on which part of the timeline is chosen. There is the Pre-Reunion version where her personality is very much like in her backstory, the Post-Reunion version where she's psychologically torn apart and undergoes major character development and now there's this new version "Reformed" where she's recovered from much of her psychological disturbances.

This Character is actually meant to be tailored for a fan fic I'm working on. That's how I see her at least.
Color Scheme
So I know I wanted to go with a red coat and yellow eyes but had to figure out if a blue or purple mane would be more fitting. Well, it's clear enough what that turned out to be. Another important part of the choice of colors is how they contrast one another (basically what you would see if you grayscale the image). There's a lot that I can explain about how the colors w
So I decided to watch the fight between Twilight and Tirek with battle music from Samurai X or Rurouni Kenshin and I'm quite blown away by how well the music matches. So here is what I'd like you to do...
Take this video of the battle scene and pauze it at 1:03. It should be right when Twilight stands up and getting ready to confront Tirek. Lower the volume on this one. The music is supposed to kick in when Twilight stands up and gets ready to go to battle with Tirek.

A relevant question indeed. I don't really know anymore. Without much interest in talking about the show or the fandom these days, all that's really left for me to visit here would be the General Discussion and Debate Pit sections. Because of the exposure, I'm increasingly feeling like a heretic -- although an ideological heretic. I don't know what people think of me anymore so I become detached.
But what relevance could this have to you as a brony or to bronies in general? For those of you
Okay, a new OC I'm working on. The concept of this OC is already worked out but it's the execution that needs working out. But let's get down to the basics;

This week... Feels like an eternity has passed. My log book doesn't say very much but it feels like I've been incredibly active. Like I've gone beyond what I thought I could do. Maybe it's just the coffee I've been taking... That certainly helps.
An opportunity has struck. Next tuesday I will get an oral exam. It's something I was offered and took. If passed -- and I'm sure I will -- I will not have to follow the course for the rest of the year nor will I have to take the exam at the end of
This is about university and things have gotten very precarious. As someone with epilepsy, I am prone to getting seizures. Risk factors include forgetting to take the medication, stress as well as sleep deprivation. Not surprisingly, epileptic attacks tend to occur more near the exam period because of one or more of the risk factors mentioned.
Last year, the frequency of epileptic attacks have gotten so high that it has made the school board antsy. They believe that if these attacks continue
It's a cruise ship and I won't be taking my laptop with me. What's more, I don't have a smartphone that can connect to wi-fi or whatever so I'll have zero access to the internet during the coming week. I'll be back home on August 4th. See you then, everypony.
Surely most if not all of us can agree that Season 4 was quite a season, wasn't it? How it started off with this Tree of Harmony, how it continued with the intrigue of the 5 keys and ended with the sixth alongside Discord's full reformation and Tirek's battle. Let's face it, that's going to be difficult to top, isn't it? Oh and please do note that I haven't been keeping up with any news about season 5 other than it could premier anywhere between late 2014 to early 2015.
What we don't want to
Yesterday I took a nap in the afternoon and something very strange happened.
I was in my parents' bedroom, on their bed, lying on my back, head on pillow... Seemingly suddenly, I seem to have lost control of my body. Despite wanting to get up, I couldn't. I wanted to scream but I wasn't uttering a sound. I couldn't even alter my breathing. What's more, I could feel my heartbeat and once every two heartbeats I would feel a pulse through my entire body and noticed my fingers and hands started
I'm sure you noticed that something's different. Well, that'd be correct -- I have changed and in your eyes, probably not for the better.
I'm pretty much back to how I was before I got into MLP and its fanbase. Cold and unrelenting. Depending on how long you've known me, "cold and unrelenting" really doesn't sound like me, does it? In the early days of my involvement in MLP and its fanbase, i went from being cold and cynical to being much more positive. Optimism and faith as I've described i
No, it's not because of something that happened here but actually because of my real life circumstances. I really need to pick up with my schoolwork and take things seriously and that means balancing work and rest. I've been finding that just sitting outside and watching the trees dance to the wind and listening to the birds chirp... Doing pretty much anything on the internet as "rest" ends up in me getting glued to my seat for much longer than I intend.
I'll still drop in to check for PMs o

I kinda already gave an inkling of it in the previous entry in this same blog. What I do is just sorta think about an alternate pony universe that's different from any of the established ones and even has its own lore, backstory, characters, etc. Maybe I'll make a separate blog for this in the future if this becomes a regular thing. Do note that this is more of a pastime instead of a project so I just go along as I please without any promises made to anyone. Not even myself
The setting is th
Since I only used generalzoi's pony creator, I think it'd be more appropriate to make a blog about it instead of a thread in Octavia's hall.
So yeah, I've been having other OCs in my head for some time now but never really got around to really bring them to life. I don't have names for any of the others nor do I ave their designs really figured out. Though today I have the design of one of them more or less figured out. Still need to think of a name for her though. This is still a prototype.
But you know, I realized something as I stopped just to look at the questions, I came to a rather stunning realization that changes everything.
But before I get to that, let me tell you what the exam is. The subject in question is "Project & Consultancy". Now let me tell you what my curriculum is; Electrical Engineering. See, in high school, physics and chemistry is where I felt at home and here in college, I've now successfully gotten math on the brain too. Now let me tell you something
Alright, this covers how and why I am permabanned from Everypony.com. All I did was make a confession in a blog entry. Aside from getting perma'd, all posts, blogs and started threads have been removed. Because of one blog post. Yeah. About a month or two before I submit the blog that removed my head, I made a farewell thread and in between the time, I did seem to disappear but I actually stuck around; I just never posted, only sent PMs. It wasn't joy that was bringing me back there but resentme
Alright, so I'm finally continuing from where I left off. Much of what I'm going to say has already been written by my at one place or another. So here I will show you one of my old blog entries I had over there.
Long title is long.
Anypony noticed I kinda disappeared the past few days? No?
Hm, I just remembered that I wanted to go about this in reverse order so I'll start with this rather frantic exploration that I've been on. Well, I've been wondering how is it humanity could survive on a planet where you can expect extreme weather. Where temperatures the likes of 50 degrees Celsius (122 in Fahrenheit) is to be expected. I remembered there being several concepts for survival on the moon, Mars and
New abbreviation: Just Getting Something Out Of My System.
I'm probably going to be doing more of these in the future. Just like other entries in this blog (Lying In The Shade) and unlike my other blog (Under The Rays), I'm not totally keen on what I'm going to write.
Alright, this kinda began at the rant or... whatever that can even be classified as in this post I made. So yeah, I've really been getting serious about accepting change. What may get in the way of things is that I'm less t
I think a few of you could recall me using the phrase in the title before and not in a pretty light.
You know, I explained things very concisely in this thread up to the point I'm going to talk about in this entry. This place is everypony.com. If it weren't for the friends I did make there, I would have nothing but regret for ever joining that place. A more comprehensive and detailed account of how miserable I was over there will be be given in later entries. For now, I'll link you to a sequenc
