How can you stand the wait?

[hawkflame 3,310]

For me it's not that hard.  I watch Everfree Radio on youtube, maybe rewatch older episodes (especially now since I got the first season on DVD) and partake in the fandom, so to speak.

[Night Shine 767]

Weeeeeeeelp...

 

I go on online forums (such as this one :3) and talk to all my friends in the brony community about all sorts of shtuff! (Whilst listening to a bunch of playlists full of amazing poni music, of course    )

 

Oh, also I write fanfics, although i'd probably be doing that anywai, because i am cursed with an insatiable drive to create. :3

[SunnyAmbience 7]

I can stand the wait, mainly for the simple fact it's going to be epic, and the wait is not that long. Plus with all the fan stuff in the community, we have enough to continue the legacy. So i just do other things, until the new episode comes out including responsibilities.

[Rainbow Dash 1,472]

I'm trying to start a rp thread game but with no replies. i was hoping that would pass the time. Instead i do all the manly things i can: Punch random things, eat pounds of meat(get your mind out of the gutters),work on my truck. I also get in touch with my creative side: Drawing(or try to at least),writing novellas,and try to make some music.

[Tempest Chaser 45]

Me I play the tablet game, rewatch old episodes, and talk to other fans, and am working on coming up with a fanfic. It's all about keeping involved for me. 

[Wingnut 6,994]

What did I do during the time a new episode normally comes on? I spent the entire 10:00 to 11:00 am Eastern MLP time slot yesterday having fun here. 

 

Come on people, it's not that hard. Look at it this way: Season 3 has only 13 episodes. Would you rather have them shown in succession with a painfully long gap until the start of season 4, or spread season 3 out a little bit?

[Shanks 10,816]

MLP is a part of my life but not my whole life so I usually find something else to do. But with how active this fandom really is if I need my fix of ponies I usually read some fanfics or look at fanart.

[Modphase 1,271]

.....I'm planning on freezing myself. The wait is so unbearable, I can't sleep at night, every single day I spend hours in my chair just thinking about the new episodes. I've wasted countless hours of my life just doing nothing. I cannot take it anymore. I'm going to freeze myself, then have my brother unfreeze me when the new episode comes out. I paid him to do it, so hopefully he will. If not, I'm afraid I will not see any of you again. I'll be in the far future, thawed out by natural causes. It would be scary, but hopefully it will never happen. Wish me luck.

 

 

 

Just kidding.

 

For me the wait isn't excruciating, so I usually do what I always do. Which is, browsing the internet, reading, playing video games, and doing various things outside.

 

 

 

[Snowfeathers 43]

Really, I'll just do what I always do. Hang out on all my usual sites, watch Let's Plays, play games.

Even though I didn't exactly come into the fandom 'early'- that is, S2 was already finished- there was still a pretty good gap until S3. Breezed past it like nobody's business.

I'm patient, you see. I find it helps out with quite a few things. 

[Flicker 141]

Compared with the between seasons wait it's nothing! But I do a lot of drawing and practicing using Gimp so I can make a good cover art for a fanfic that I'm writing, chill with my brother, catch up on homework, fix the manes on my pony collection, chill with friends, and make HTML tables for people in a RP I love.

[mycarhasaMoustache 449]

Well I go to work for most of the week and the rest of the time I post ponys. That's pretty much all I do really since the government are slowly but surely making it too expensive to do anything fun :/

[Dashiefan7213 8]

Usually Minecraft or some other stuff when I get bored

I go back to school tomorrow so yeah.

Play with my pony stuff or just chill on YouTube and here

[SuperUltimateBrony 351]

I spend my time making music. I wish there was a song in the last episode because I would have loved to make a remix of it. And no, "The dragon is the finest creature ever, there's more to him than just guarding treasure" doesn't count. xD

[Radiance64 7,053]

You kidding? Compared to the wait for season 3, this is nothing.

Anyway, I live life. What else? Ponies aren't everything. Besides, there's enough fanon out there to keep most bronies occupied(wanna be occupied for a month or so? Read Fallout: Equestria), and you can always make your own stuff. Plus, the existing episodes are already out there for your re-viewing pleasure, you can always memorize the songs and lines or something. It's not hard really.

[Galex Dj 173]

MLP Forums actually keeps me usually entertained enough for me to make it though the week or two. Also school as well actually keeps me busy enough for the week to just fly by in no time at all. And last but not least, dance keeps me busy as well. I have so many practices and national competitions to go to that sometimes I have to miss an episode or two.

 

There are a lot of things that keep me entertained throughout the week days. Enough to get me through the week for the new MLP episode that week.

[GoneForeverBye 184]

I simply...wait...? : p

 

I must be more patient than some of you.

 

Anyhow, I can say that I sometimes perceive "now" differently than usual; on concious behalf, of course. I try not to think of the episode as in "then", but more as an eventual "now", and see the real "now" as eventual "past"...

 

... ... ...

 

... ... ...

 

...it makes more sense in my head, so I won't mind if you don't understand...

 

Anyhow, live in the present instead of bickering about the future. Do something productive...or... have some fun, I don't know. :v

I breezed by every episode in less than a week and waiting for the new one is taking forever!! I mean, how can you guys stand this. What do you guys do to keep you occupied.

 

I practice drawing most of my day and would like to be professional. So tell me, what do you guys do for entertainment!

 

I can't wait, College just started up again so I am biding my time with that and developing Age of Equestria, but my heartstrings and dying to see the new episode!

[Discordian 6,015]

Since I am mainly a gamer I play games all week long and then pony it up for a few hours on Saturday. If there was a MLP game on consoles I'd play that a lot though. (I kinda wish Fighting is Magic would come to consoles as an indy game or something but they could never get money off of it. They are already struggling as it is to get it done)

[TailsIsNotAlone 3,695]

I can deal with it. I spread all the episodes of Seasons 1 and 2 over two months before 3 started, so I'm used to waiting. In the meantime I'll just play games, watch old episodes, look for funny pictures and do my MLP radio show.
