sondheim

Right now I'm finishing up reading The Danish Girl by David Ebershoff. It's based off the first person to undergo a sex change, Lili Elbe, and the woman she married before her reassignment.

 

It's really well written and good and aaaah it was the perfect book to get me back into reading ;v;

 

You had me at hello. This sounds pretty great, I'ma goodreads it now.

 

Why yes I did just verb that noun.

Question! If we ponify (or write) a song for this contest, can we also post it in Octavia's hall, or do we have to wait until the contest is over so as to keep it seeeeecret and all that?

Thanks for the welcome, everypony - and for the welcome song, which I just know is gonna be in my head all day now!

 

Looking forward to getting to know all of you and adding to my tiny collection of brony friends... but first I have to go watch the new episode! Curse these timezones that make me sleep through it!!

The Hunger Games! Great movie. I prefer the book, but then again I always do. The movie was amazing nonetheless.

I got a couple of close friends into MLP and figured, well, that's all I need really.

 

Then my seven-year-old brother heard me talking about it and decided to watch it when he caught it on TV. Now he's the youngest brony I know, talks about the show all the time, and his favourite pony is Fluttershy. I've never been more proud!

At the moment I'm reading 1984 (almost finished!), Jurassic Park and a neat little book of assorted sonnets I found at a second-hand shop for $2. Then it's on to A Dance With Dragons. At last!

 

I hoard books like crazy. Even the gaps above the books on my bookshelf are full of books. But you can never have too many books. NEVER!

 

Soon they will collapse onto my floor and fill my room, like that xkcd comic about playpen balls.

 

I am okay with this.

Hi, everypony!

 

You call can call me sondheim (big or little S, I'll leave that up to you), I'm a 21 year old filly from Down Under, long-time brony, first-time forum poster, and a little bit (flutter)shy, so don't mind me if I'm kind of quiet around these parts.

 

There's not a lot to be said about me, but for your reading pleasure anyway here is a list of things I love:

• ponies
• books
• writing
• singing
• theatre
• BROADWAY
• rainbow-coloured items of clothing
• Pikachu
• dinosaurs
• funny hats
• my iPod (his name is Nathan Lane)
• quality TV
• Audrey Hepburn
• pop culture earrings
• hazelnuts
• coffee
• more ponies

My big dream is to become a Broadway star, a bestselling novelist, or hey, both! Shoot for the moon. Just like our dear overlord Celestia. I love to sing, and I'm told that I'm not terrible at it, so expect some ponified versions of my favourite showtunes when I get around to it (I can't write music myself!).

 

My personal best ponies are Rainbow Dash, Pinkie and Derpy.

 

Crackle is best dragon. FOREVER.

 

Thank you!

I joined the forum just to join this contest - although I like it here, so I'll stick around!

 

Showtunes (and ponies) are pretty much my life, so I'm thinking that I'll choose a showtune to ponify. Who knows, I might start a trend!
