1. Any scars? - Surprisingly few. Just a few cuts on my fingers. Nothing major. I was never the danger-seeking kid so…yeah, I'm pretty intact.
2. Relationship status? - Single but hopeful
3. Crush? - Human: A few people I know, both on here and IRL. Ponies: Vinyl Scratch, Rainbow Dash, and Soarin.
4. Kissed anyone? - Yeah.
5. Coke or Pepsi? - Ginger Ale
6. Someone you hate? - Hate is too much effort. Those I am opposed to I just scorn with disinterest.
7. Best Friends? - My buddies f
So, today is a major turning point in my life. And well, well...let me just explain it as it comes.
I've decided to no longer pursue my dream of being a pilot.
Yes, as many of you know, I am currently in school for flight training, and it has long been my singular dream to live my life as an airline pilot and an aerobatic pilot. It had been my dream since before I was in high school, but unfortunately, something else has been a part of me for nearly just as long, something not so nice...
Well, I'm officialy 20 now. In a way I'm happy and in a way I'm scared. On one hand, I'm happy because it feels like all the baggage I collected as a teenager is kinda...gone, like I can finally just leave that part of my life behind now that I'm not a teenager anymore. I feel a motivation to try new things, like work harder on my art and music, because I feel like now I have a real opportunity to redefine myself.
At the same time, as it stands, it's one more year older that I feel like I h
As many of you who know me know, I am in college studying to be a pilot. I thought it was about time you guys got to see what it is I do. Here's the flight I did today. (I have a time block in which I fly, it is Monday, Wednesday, and Friday from 1:30 to 3:30).
The lesson for the day: Landings (the last thing I need to be signed off on before I can solo, and I need a few more hours of landings to legally solo). As such I would only be staying in the traffic pattern, my maximum height being a
I'm a changing man. In the last few months I've begun a journey to become the person I've, deep down, always wanted to be. And since my brony family here gives me so much support, I thought I should fill you guys in on the journey I've been on. You've given me so much strength and support to continue on this journey, and in fact, being a brony has played a direct role in setting me on this journey.
So, if I'm going to fill you in on my journey, I might as well begin at the very start. I'll
As some might know, Scootaloo is one of my favorite ponies. Why? Because she is the pony that I relate to the most, for a couple of reasons:
Like her and the other CMC, I'm a late bloomer myself. I pretty much blew off self-discovery all through middle and high school, and now that I'm a little older and more grown up, I'm beginning to finally be proactive about discoverying myself, my talents, and my dreams. And in a lot of ways, my efforts mirror those of the CMC. I'm learning about musica
There's a thin line that runs between self-improvement and trying to make yourself someone that you are not. I often wonder which side of that line I am on. Right now is one of those times.
Since I've got insomnia at the moment, along with some...unpleasantness that I mentioned in my status, I find myself unable to sleep. Since I've had these thoughts running in my head, I thought there's no better time than now to put them out there.
As many here know, I've made some serious perceptive
I know I said I wouldn't...
I know I said I couldn't...
But I think I've finally decided to seek professional help for my depression. I tried taking Omega 3, and I tried exercising, but I am back into another episode of extreme depression, and I can't handle it anymore. I had one too many nights of insomnia, and then missing my morning class. It's getting out of control.
My epiphany still stands, but I have also come to another realization: as long as I languish like this, I won't ac
As some of you might have seen in my Life Advice thread, I've recently had an identity crisis (or finally acknowledged it) about where exactly I am in life, or where I want to be. Basically the dilemma was this: 1) My only passion in life is aviation. 2) Even then, specifics beyond flying were sparse. 3) I feared what might happen to my life if I had to give up flying for whatever reason, because I have no other skills to fall back on (I'm trying things, thanks to MLP, but it's all on a fledglin
I've made a few blog changes, and created a second blog! My other blog has been renamed to "A State of Scratch", while this blog is named "Vinyl's House."
Both blog names are fittingly inspired after electronic music, both being references to radio shows on SiriusXM's "Electric Area" EDM station.
A State of Scratch (formerly FromTheFlightDeck) - A parody of Armin Van Buuren's "A State of Trance" - This blog will continue to be focused on the more serious and philosophical issues I discus
