Today, my mom gave me this book, pen, and inkwell. She says that I'm about to go through some major changes in my life, and she wants me to keep track of all of them so she can help me though it. I didn't know what else to put for this entry so she suggested I put a little bit about myself.
My name is Ebony Crystal. My mom and I live in the north part of Phillydelphia. I like it how all the kids play games, and we all have fun all the time. Some of them make fun of me, though, because I'm full of holes, and my hair is flat, and my wings are different. But a lot of them like me because I look just like the Princess! I'm actually an alicorn just like her!
They say I should be the leader one day, so we can all get out of Phillydelphia and into the castle in Canterlot. Then we'd have big parties, lots of music, plenty of food, good water, and we wouldn't have to worry about our parents. Well, I don't mean my mom, but some of my friends have been beaten by their parents.
Sometimes, for no reason.
Adults can be so cruel. I just don't get it. I mean, most of us do well in school, and we do everything we can to stay out of trouble, but some of my friends, like Sunshine Down, gets beat by her dad whenever he came home drunk. Sunshine says she doesn't care. It happens a lot to her and she's used to hiding upstairs until he passes out.
