    Life update

    Well. I've just sent in a job application to hopefully be apart of a new company. And if I do get the job, the time will be from 4PM- 2AM Mon-Thurs so don't expect to see me on here that much during the week.

    So Long (For now)

    It's come to my recent attention that I no longer really care that much for writing pony fiction. While I still like the show and all, I've just lost the passion for writing about the ponies that we all know and love. I might be back, I might not. So this is goodbye for now FimFiction! It's been fun while it lasted!

    The Box #1

    Yes ladies and gentlemen, it's time for me to start reviewing the feature box (more specifically the first two stories)! This is an attempt to get me back into reading regularly (it's ironic that stopped when I started college, but hey, it's never too late to start back up), and for another chance to review fanfics! This segment will be simply called The Box. And what better way to start off

The Box #1 · 3:01am Dec 17th, 2014

Yes ladies and gentlemen, it's time for me to start reviewing the feature box (more specifically the first two stories)! This is an attempt to get me back into reading regularly (it's ironic that stopped when I started college, but hey, it's never too late to start back up), and for another chance to review fanfics! This segment will be simply called The Box. And what better way to start off this feature box review with Dressing Room by GaPJaxie.

The Skinny: This first story takes us to a brand new 'universe' of sorts within the realms of fimfiction. The main lead, the OC Star Power is being asked questions about her role in the very popular hit foals show: My Little Pony

Conclusion: I enjoyed this fic a lot. While it wasn't as funny as lets say, random, it still got a couple chuckles out of me. I also thought that the references were extremely clever, especially that Magic Kindergarden one, which actually made me laugh out loud a little. It's got a nice bit of charm to it that I think everyone would love. Technically it's perfect.

Score: 100%.

Story Number 2: Anarchive Reigns by Aragon

The Skinny: The Canterlot Archive decides to create a document listing the age of every pony in Equestria. It's impossible to mess this up. The Canterlot Archive messes this up.

Conclusion: Eh, it's not bad per say. I mean, I got a couple of chuckles here and there like with the Princess Luna section, but overall, it tries too hard at some points, and the further down you read, it just become too mean spirited to be funny anymore. Also, the tone switches on a dime at the end, which doesn't make a whole lot of sense to me because it's supposed to be a comedy. It's not horrendous, but I wouldn't be recommending it either.

Score: 55%

So there you have it, my first sort of feature box review! I don't know if I should expand it to the whole box, or just keep it at the top two stories.
