  1. I'm hoping for a relaxing day to get settled back in at university before classes begin.
  2. I kill it with a tissue or napkin as quickly as I can, then throw it in the trash. Spiders, and ESPECIALLY centipedes, are not welcome in my room.
  3. I'd probably say 16, since I had matured quite a bit by then and wasn't nearly as insecure or awkward as I had been during my earlier teen years. My personal life was going really smoothly at the time, and my school life was fairly relaxed too. This was also when my involvement in the online MLP community was at its peak. I'm hoping that I still have plenty of better ages ahead of me, though.
  4. Feeling rather tired for no apparent reason.
  5. Instead of the YouTube shorts, I would have made Equestria Girls into a fully fledged TV show. Ideally, FiM and EG would have had new episodes airing back-to-back in a one-hour block. As for what the TV episodes would feature, I have a few ideas. Firstly, I'd use the additional runtime to do further worldbuilding for the city of Canterlot and the surrounding areas. It would have been fascinating to learn more about the human world and how it works, beyond just the high school and a few other locations. I would also have the stories feature characters outside the main cast (Lyra, Bon Bon, Octavia, Vinyl, Wallflower, the Shadowbolts, etc.) more prominently than the shorts did, since I think it would be really neat to see what the other students at CHS and CPA get up to when there's no magic around, and a lot of these characters are fan favorites too. This is one of the reasons why I really enjoy writing slice-of-life EG fanfics, because there's just so much to the human world that was never really explored in canon.
  6. Swapsies! :D:laugh:

      Huh. Surprisingly, Rarity rocks the floof quite well. Pinkie and the wavy hair? Not so sure about that. It reminds me of when Pinkie snaps and turns into Pinkamena. :sunbutt:

  7. In case you didn't know, the woman who did "Anthropology" back in 2012 is still making music! :arethosehands: I really enjoy this most recent song of hers.

     

  8. Here's an updated version of Sky Scraper's Equestria Girls counterpart! I really enjoyed drawing her outfit. ^_^

      Well done, my friend. :)

  9. One of the cutest and most beloved dogs on the Internet has died. :( Rest in peace, Maru. I'm sure you'll get all the treats up in dog heaven, where a good boy like you belongs. :kindness:

      At least he had a good life while he was alive, right? :rarity:

      @Samurai Equine He certainly did, yes. :coco: His owner took great care of him, and he lived to be 16, which is a good long lifespan for any dog. :twi:

  10. Merry birthiversary, my friend! :blue_baloon::balloon::blue_baloon:

      Thank you so much

      Here is also some cake for you

  11. I believe that she has always existed, but doesn't live anywhere near Canterlot and has therefore never been seen in the series. I think the ideal personality for her would be a well-meaning girl with rough edges stemming from a tough upbringing.
  12. On a good night, about 30 minutes to an hour. On a bad night, it can take 2 hours or more.
  13. Friends :squee:

      I know you are, but what am I? :mlp_icwudt:

  14. A few years ago, a racially motivated hit-and-run happened a few streets away from my house.
  15. "Excuse me, darling... do you have time for snuggles?" :awed:

      Definitely one of the cutest, though I'd unsurprisingly put Coco at number one! :eager:

      I loved all those reactions, especially the Cup of Coco that was used on my birthday once. :rarity:

      I'd buy one immediately if it was real! :coco:

      @Tacodidra I remember that! What a great birthday gift that must have been for you. :eager:

      It was an amazing one, and a complete surprise. :rarity: The teacups in general were great – and I think they'd work pretty well for the G5 ponies too. :izzy-shine:

  16. Good evening, everypony! I hope you've all had a good first day of 2024! :mlp_icwudt:

      I sure did, my friend. Thanks for asking. :oneheckofahat:
      It is considered bad luck to swim on Good Friday in Belize.

      Happy New Year!
      I had. I hope you had too

  17. Well, here we are at New Year's Eve once again. As I've said before, I'll be glad to see the back of this year. Here's to a better one in 2024! :coco:

      Happy New Year, my friend! :arethosehands:

  18. Fuck 2023 with a rusty iron pipe. This has been one of the worst years of my life, and I can't wait for it to finally end in a couple of days. I hope it dies a painful death as 2024 takes over.

      I hope this next year finds you better, my friend. :raritypleadhat:

  19. I had a shouting match with my dad over something stupid, and I've given up on myself ever being a functioning adult.
  20. I'm never getting up before noon on a vacation day ever again. I hate mornings. :bea:

    1. Tacodidra

      Tacodidra

      I'm not a huge fan of mornings either. :adorkable: Somehow I find them the most boring time of day, though they can sometimes be decent.

    2. Samurai Equine

      Samurai Equine

      I don't like mornings either, but my body decides when I wake up, I don't. Once my body has decided it's time to wake up, if I don't get out of bed, I'll be in a world of pain. Headaches, muscle cramps, all-day soreness; any of those could be my punishment.

  21. If you're viewing this status update, Twilight has a present for you! ^_^

      @Tacodidra Happy Hearth's Warming! :flutterhat: Not gonna lie, it feels like the holiday season kinda snuck up on me this year. :dashcutehat:

      For me?! :kirin:

      Happy Hearths Warming, my musically inclined friend. :fluttercutehat:

  22. I think this is a cool idea! Since Equestria isn't actually located in our world, you can model its transportation systems after whatever you want.
  23. Now that I'm home for winter break, I'm going to start working on something I've had in my mind for almost two years now: my headcanon map of the Equestria Girls version of Canterlot. :arethosehands: I'll be making it in the style of a road atlas map, showing all the main streets and highways that run through the city, and where all of the important places in the Equestria Girls series are located. I'll be starting on it tomorrow - this should be fun! :sassy:

      Sounds awesome! :yay: It's not something I've thought of myself before, but I look forward to seeing it! :pinkie:

      Good luck, my friend. :flutterhat:

  24. I'm home for winter break now, and feeling a lot better than I was a few days ago. :twilighthat:
