Does anyone keep a Brony journal?

[DoctorWhovian1902 596]

This is just a question off the top of my head, but does anyone keep a journal of their events as a Brony?

 

Take a wild guess why I'm asking...yes I do keep a separate journal for my events in the fandom (I have a regular journal as well).

 

So what about you guys? Do any of you have journals about being a Brony? (Bonus question: Would anyone actually read the journal if I edited it a bit (mainly the names being removed amongst other things) and put it somewhere? I think it's at least fairly interesting.)

[Betez 1,734]

I'm afraid not. I prefer to talk about my Brony experiences on here. I'm not very good about keeping journals anyway. And I don't have many Brony-ish things happen to me that often.

[Rainbow Dash 1,471]

I tried doing that so i can have a record for when im an old man. Then i remembered that i have bad handwriting. so i gave up on it.

[Zygen 6,065]

Well the only problem I have is that I don't keep a actual journel in the first place really, and even if I did i'd get sore and tired fast, and my handwriting sucks.

 

Of course I actually thought about it at times, especially considering how few people I talk to IRL . But yeah my handwritings so bad and writing makes my arm sore pretty fast, so I tend not to like it as much.

 

Now typing I can do much much better , definitely preferred.

No, not exactly the closest thing I have to that is when I use the blog feature on this site though that only represents a portion of my blog posts as most of them are rants about my crappy dead end job and how they keep screwing me over.

[Emerald Heart 24,597]

No, I have 6 different diaries and I all gave up on those.

 

 

 

I would probably give up on the journal, to. 

 

 

 

I am not so committed to the whole diary/journal thing.

[Fluttermoon 192]

Nope. I don't use the blog I created here at all. There are some entries in it but.. I'm so lazy about making more. I may or may not add another entry sometime but it's certainly not a brony journal/blog.

[Mutemutt 772]

Afraid not. I have tried the whole journal thing before but I can't really stick to it. I do have freewrites sorta haphazardly though, so I do write about various topics. Of course since I write everything that pops into my head none of the brony subjects get filtered out.

 

 

Would anyone actually read the journal if I edited it a bit (mainly the names being removed amongst other things) and put it somewhere?

 

I'm not sure if I would. I probably would just because I read all that stuff out curiosity I guess. But for now that's a "definitely maybe" from me.

[DoctorWhovian1902 596]

I can't really complain with that.

 

Thanks for being the first person to leave some feedback on that, by the way. It's much appreciated.

My memory is all the journal I really need. My journaling skills are...well, non existent. I have two blogs here, but one I use to mainly muse about the fandom, the other is a general personal blog. I haven't really blogged much about my personal experiences with the fandom yet, though (with the exception to my reaction to BronyDoc).

[Kokoripony 90]

I don't really have a journal/diary to record any pegasister/brony events mostly because almost every brony experience has been either: 

A: posted here on the forums both good and bad (take your pick lol)

                    or

B: Drawn on one of my drawing pads (i'm too creative for my own good, lol)

 

I wouldn't object to getting one but then again, I wouldn't want to waste a perfectly good journal that could be used for some writing and/or drawing in

I'd take a look at your journal, it sounds pretty interesting.

 

I currently don't keep any journals myself. When something happens to me I usually just tell friends about it. If it's MLP related, it's either to one of my best IRL friends, or to one of my best online friends who is also a brony. 

 

Keeping a journal is a good idea, though. It's a good way to express and organize your thoughts on a regular basis.

[Beta 42]

I don't keep any sort of specific brony journal...the posts that I make on the forums are probably the closet thing I have to that.

 

Sometimes I mention the adventures of being a brony in my regular journal that I keep and I think that's enough. I don't honestly believe I would have enough daily content to keep up a brony one anyway.

There is really no way to know how many chameleons are in this room right now.

Neither do I, but I write in it whenever something interesting/noteworthy occurs, which ranges from weekly to every few days.

Your post...it makes no sense! Even if it is true that we can't tell how many chameleons, what does that have to do with anything?

 

Actually, I think we might have found Pinkie Pie on the forums...

Well, I have a fandom journal where I record any big reactions to new episodes/movies I see, things I read or fanwork, or conventions or anything. During season 3, I wrote every of couple about the new episodes and my thoughts on them.

 

I like journals. And just books in general. I have specific books for everything - fandom, normal journal, 4 different drawing books, song writing, story planning, character designs... yeah.

[Fluttershyfan94 5,738]

A brony journal, actually yes.. Well it's technically not a journal, it's more like writing down the dates. I put up most of them here, in the "about me" page. I took down when I first watched the show, when I did my first drawings.. I put up information like when i did the drawing. I put up when i bought my first pony t-shirt and when i ordered it. I'm not really that interesting, so keeping a journal of everything wouldn't be doing anything for me, it's more just writing down numbers and dates.

 

Bonus question answer: I would actually read it, one of the main reason I kept track of all these dates was to be able to share them with other bronies. I would at least read some of it.

Personally I would rather be in the moment instead of documenting my experience. And if was so significant to me I would remember it anyway

[Unique Pinkie Pie 173]

 

i don't feel the need to have a journal to tell things about the brony community

and also i don't want it to be like the butterfly affect 

[Harmonic Revelations 8,833]

I don't keep a journal about the entire fandom, but I keep one about this forum specifically.

 

I even have a section where I write down as much info as I know about each user so I can compile it and know everything about you guys.

 

I write down things like your full names, favorite colors, locations, languages you speak, hair colors, and I put a picture if one is available, etc...

I always wanted to keep a journal but I've never been good at keeping up with it. So I don't think I would keep up with one for the fandom any better haha. As far as you posting yours on here, you could set it up as a blog? I think a lot more ponies than you think would read it. But who knows.

[Thunderchild 875]

Keep a journal? Nope. Pretty much everything I've experienced about the show is on here in one form or another.

As far as reading someone else's experiences though, isn't that why we're all here anyway? 

Of course i'd be interested-whip 'em out!

[FoxyCryptid 4,327]

I have a few a journals of "what brought us here" navel gazing on my DA, and my fanfic is mirrored in several places, but that's about it. 

[Paleopony 690]

I don't have a brony specific journal. The forums are the closest thing to that.

[EpicEnergy 22,105]

I don't keep journals, used to but not anymore.
