Jeez, that time already?
Before I move on to the main part of this blog, I just want to thank you all for the continued support of The Morning After. The warm reception it recieved is amazing. I mean, it broke 1,000 views the day after I posted it. That is... what? It's just mind-blowing for me.
But, back on topic, tomorrow Season 4 comes to an end. It's the second series to come out during my time as a brony, seeing as my 'coming out' (though I really hate referring to it as that) was about halfway between the end of Season 2 and the start of Season 3, nearly two years ago. And I can honestly say that these two years have been among the best of my life. I've met so many amazing people that I would never have met if I hadn't joined the fandom, and can honestly say that being a brony is a fact I can say with my head held high in pride.
Granted, it was a bit awkward explaining the fandom to my parents, and while they don't fully understand the appeal, I was overjoyed when they seemed to accept my love for the show.
So, Season 4 finale tomorrow, and I have big plans. I'll be travelling to London, where a huuuuge meetup is occurring in a pub we've rented out for the day. Last time I checked the list of registered guests, there'll be about 170 of us there. The list of activities includes, but is not limited to: a pub quiz, karaoke, group photos, drunken hilarity, and the screening of both parts of the finale on a big mofo of a projector screen. So overall, fun times planned.
Though, given my distance from the capital city, and travelling times, etc, it will mean waking up around 5am. But a full day of ponies? Worth it. But I will most likely be broken on Sunday. And I'm working Sunday evening, so that'll be... yeah...
So that's my plan for tomorrow, but I'm curious: what are you up to? Watching it with friends during the Live Broadcast? Gonna catch an online stream? Watch it on Youtube later that night? Or are you not fussed, and you'll just watch it whenever you get round to it? Post below, let's see what everyone else is up to.
Enjoy the finale guys!

Edit: Just noticed this. Two stories in the Popular sections at the same time? That's gotta be an achievement of some sort...
Dude, if you even THINK about stopping the awesomeness that is your writing, I will break down the Wall and throw you into Cupcakes.
On a side note, will you do more OctaScratch stories?

Umm... where did you get the impression that I was going to stop writing?
And in answer to your question... yes. There's part three of the Scotch-verse trilogy to come, but beyond that, I've considered doing side stories of the OctaScratch relationship, set in the same universe but not actually part of the main series of events.

Cool stuff ^^ Normally I would find anywhere I could watch the finale with some other bronies, but an older group of friends is already doing something this weekend. So yeah, I'm probably going to end up watching it on my lonesome tomorrow night, or the day after. Bit of a bummer, but older bro's before pony bro's. Or something. :P
