I always try and approach the day with the attitude: 'Start the day the way you wish to end it'. If I get up make my bed, shower, get changed into different clothes and start planning any projects or tasks I am more likely to continue doing that throughout the day, especially if you remain semi productive until lunchtime. If you stay in your pajamas and lay in bed for ages you're in that lazy mindset for the rest of the day. I am still in education so most weekdays of the year I have the incentive to go to school. However, it is also nearly impossible to be productive every single day of your life and you can't assume that you will be. So I always have lazy days actually scheduled in, mostly Saturdays, where I won't go outside, I won't meet friends, I will do nothing except watch TV, Youtube or netflix for the entire day. I don't feel bad or guilty because this is one of the most important days of the fortnight a full day to regenerate (They can be more or less frequent depending on stresses and work load). These two 'habits' are there to prevent getting into a rut (I also constantly list everything I think I should do so that I never forget something, I organise the next day the night before and tell myself I am going to complete these tasks) If I am in a rut it means that I have neglected the above two things. To get myself back in the rhythm I call on a friend or organize something I want to do in the morning, this way I start that day doing something. That night I will be able to go off of that semi productive mindset and restart the cycle. The amount of days you need to relax and recuperate depends of the person, the weather, their health. Luckily for me my parents where pretty good at judging when my siblings and I needed a blob day, so I have kept up the pattern. However, until recently I always neglected these relax days worth and would shout at myself for being lazy and not achieving my potential, I am slowly starting to change my mindset to a healthier one. The important thing is to understand yourself, especially mentally, as only you can know everything about you, it's something I am starting to do now and I am feeling much better for it.

Right. So I've introduced myself in the plaza now I'm ready to get involved. haven't started brainstorming yet but that's what today is for. I have the rough idea of the story just need some actual content and details. Looks like I'll be doing the conversation one because I am nowhere the final season let alone the final episode.

The foundation license is pretty quick, but I guess you do have to be part of a club or attend an amateur radio event

Hello everypony (First time I've said that, feels good) this is probably going to be a long one..so yea, sorry in advance. I'm a 17 year old male who lives in England in my final year of study (A levels) looking to study computer science at university. This venture is all part of me getting back to the person I used to be, or rather the person I truly am, beneath all my lies and half truths. For this reason, my explanation as to how I became a fan is IMMENSE, it is basically a life story with less details (It's more of my mental life story, how my mental attitude has changed and what shaped it). I'd like to take a break here and talk about my OC, as you can see from my profile picture I chickened out. I haven't honed onto exactly what I want him to look like so he is a dirt caked, mysterious traveler who is unsure of how this world works. He's basically me (cop out again) but as I get into it more he will end up being more of the person who I want to be with the obvious difference that occur between Equestria and Earth. He is an engineer, he builds robots (or at least he will when he settles down, he has no tools) his goal is to create robots that can do what other ponies do. He is an earth pony (not enough of them on this forum and I am more of an earth pony: I make and do stuff. I do still do a lot of academics, which I associate with unicorns, but I am primarily a doing person, or at least that's who I am going back to) so he is eager to get stuck in with pony life and help the populous. I am deeply sorry about the mess on the mat and the floor but this dirt is deep set. I'll need a few baths before I'm clean. Don't worry about the mess I'll get started right away on the design of cleaning robot, actually while I'm on that I'll built a cleaning station, much better than this measly mat. Come to think of the mat I can't see it under all this mud, so sorry. I have quite a few hobbies and interests: I play guitar (classical and electric), double bass and percussion in county orchestras and I am learning harmonica; I am bell ringer (look that up before you jump to conclusions); I am a qualified scuba diver; I am a qualified amateur radio operator; I love programming and making robots (hence my character and his name ENIAC); I have a small interest in art which is starting to grow due to this fandom, same with creative writing. Now onto favourite pony: I rule out pinkie pie and rarity, though I think they are amazing characters they in no way relate to who I am or who I want to be, I am close friends with a real life pinkie pie and he's fantastic but it's not me and she's a bit OTT for my taste. Rarity is too fashion central for me, tbh she would probably scare me in real life because I won't know how to approach her, she's too stunning. Fluttershy is a great character but again I don't relate to her. I know a fluttershy who I am very fond of but I am not a fluttershy If I were to get a plush it would be of AJ, for the simple reason that I would feel safest around her. She is someone I would love to have as a best friend. Her honesty and hard work is something that I would love to have but stoic nature is not something that I can relate to . In real life I would say that I am a mixture between Twilight and AJ leaning more towards Twilight. I am fascinated by the world around me and love to read. I naturally find myself in leading positions and atm I do get over stressed over small things and big things, actually just most things.As a character I relate to her the most, however having recently discovered Dr. Whooves I think I relate to him a bit more. But in terms of how I feel when watching the show and the part of me that I have been hiding for too long I must say that my favorite character is Rainbow Dash. There are times I do not relate or like her but overall her look, her mannerism and overall character wins it. But out of AJ, Twilight and RD it's close. Having a look from it as a post it is insanely large. But anyway, what is done is done.
