Recent events and important discussions · 11:53am Mar 25th, 2015
Hello followers and friends
Here we are again, me posting after a period of silence making promises of all sort, well, this time we have a few things to discuss. 
First off, I'll be posting a blog tomorrow about some stuff and it's important so if you get chance give it a look and leave a comment, I would be very appreciative.
Next big thing, certainly something big for all bronies, Season 5! I only just recently found out it's air date (April 4th, incase you didn't know), so what's everyone's predictions for it? I probably won't see it 'til the next day for a few reasons: In another country, can never get the online stuff to work properly and I'll be at a music concert that night (Ed Sheeran 
) but I for am getting very excited for the upcoming season, I'm especially looking forward to the 100th episode, it apparently involves background characters (I believe I stated that in a blog once).
Also, I was thinking of posting another review blog, but first I wanted to know if there were any suggestions, requests or preferences. I might do something on an episode of the show, a recent game or movie, or a story on this site, see how things go.
So one more thing to discuss, and this one's a biggie........... How's it going? 
Seriously though, things been going good? My ears are always open if you want to talk.
ta ta and love ya 
I'm still here.
2908847 glad to see someone, it sucks posting a blog with little reception, especially since I have something important to talk about tomorrow yet it almost seems like there's no point
2909292 Awwwww *hugs*, I still love you.
What's your big news. I'll still read and comment on the blog tomorrow but I was just curious.
2909298 thanks mate *hugs* you too
I'll be going to bed now, hopefully some more people will have checked it out by the time I'm up, if not, I may need to think about things... but I'll still be posting a blog tomorrow whatever happens, hopefully people will check that one out.
2909324 Ok do you like my new OC?
2909314 It's not so much news as it is something I need peoples attention for, a friend needs my help, helping raise another friends self-esteem.
2909336 Which friend?
2909327 Is your new OC your profile picture? If so I thick she looks very cool, if not, I'll have to check her out tomorrow (as I said I'm going to bed now)
2909347 Her name is SonicMlpGamerandArtist (I call her SMGA for short) here's her profile, I'll be posting a picture of her friend and explaining the situation tomorrow
2909375 Yeah my new OC is called Emerald Desires she's my profile picture and ok goodnight, talk to you tomorrow.
Hey, you're alive. Good.
Not that I ever doubted you would be. It's not like the skysharks are a treat to the world yet. Well, not until the next experiment.
It's worth noting that people can read the entire blog from their feedpage, but it won't display as a 'read' unless they click the actual link. Which I for one didn't do since I was waiting for the important announcement. (I did however click to see what the nine comments were on, which I couldn't see from the feed.
)

This wouldn't happen to be related to This blog, would it?
I'm not quite sure that appealing to a bunch of internet strangers is the most healthy of things to attach ones self-esteem to.
2912023 Ah Hello Crow!
Well, I tried to get people she knew to assure her, but of course, she said it was because we were her friends and we pitied her. So I got some people who aren't particularly strangers, but we didn't talk to them or anything very often. She would shake her head, frown, and stay silent. So after so many efforts, I decided that maybe this way would do the trick. Now, the main reason I came to Fimfic was because most of the time, his Blogs receive comments unlike my blogs, which only gets a couple people's input. I showed her the one I posted (Which only got about 4 people to comment) and when she saw the nice comments, she covered her face, blushed and cried happy tears with a big smile on her face. I think she needed to know that some random people on the internet, who weren't going to pity her or lie because they were her friends, thought she was beautiful. I made her day, and she's starting to accept and embrace the fact that she is. in fact, beautiful.
It helped her. And to see more would probably help her too. That's why I'm glad Fimfic is helping me out.

Hey Sonic.
I'm glad she is feeling better, and I hope it stays that way.
I just really want to avoid a situation where she starts to feel like she needs the approval of strangers to feel beautiful.
2916977 Well her friends are there to make sure that doesn't happen. After all, Frendship is Magic!
Hey man, long time no speak
I'm just getting back into the site after a long period of inactivity (again! I am rubbish!) and saw your post so I thought I'm come catch up. I've been very up and down, but mostly on the up lately
Just today got a new chapter published for one of my smaller stories, which is exciting considering that I haven't been doing a lot of writing until recently! I might be getting back into it for real soon 
How about you, man? How are things going for you?
3034570 Hey mate, good to hear from ya, sorry for the late reply, on here fairly infrequently nowadays, but it's still nice to get a chance to talk to a friend, good to hear things have been going well for you too
I myself have been pretty down overall for a while, really trying to get my passion for writing back, but I can't seem to get into the groove of it, occasionally I get a story idea and jot it down, but nothing more than that. Plus the days seem to fly past really quickly so it feels like I have no time to do things, even though I've got plenty.
I also haven't seen any friends for a while (and even more so for offline/non brony friends, which I guess makes it all the better to hear from you again
3043906 Ah man, believe me when I say I know exactly how you feel - that sounds exactly like me after I left college. I felt absolutely awful for ages - having so much free time, but it somehow seems like you don't have any time at all! It's frustrating to no end. Though I hate to admit it, it was actually getting myself a steady job that seemed to sort me out. Helped me out with managing my time, gave me more energy and suddenly I could fit so much more into my day. Weird how that works. But I think when we have too much time to think, we end up getting not a lot done.
Speaking of having too much time to think, I think I've just proved that I do, haha! Ah, I'm out of work again at the moment so things are not easy (though like I said, I'm reasonably on the up now). Never thought I'd say this, but I really want to be working again. I don't think I could stand another hospitality job though... I want to find something interesting and new and challenging. I'm actually trying to get into some kind of writing career, but getting started is difficult.
....and you didn't ask about any of that
Haha, sorry. Guess I needed a vent. What about you? Are you working?
And how come you haven't been seeing your friends?
3044525 Yeah I been looking for a job for a while but I haven't been able to got one so far. I figured getting a job would not only get me some money but would help me have an overall boost to do things through out the week, but it seems like everywhere wants you to have more experience but you can't get any because you can't get a job, continuous cycle.
I know what ya mean about wanting to do something different, I think it would be amazing to have a writing career, but like you said it's really difficult to get going. Last year I was actually doing a photography course cause I wanted it to lead to journalism, but later on I started to feel like it wasn't for me, I'm still interested in writing stories and such, but I don't think I'll be doing journalism or photography.
No need to apologize, I'm always here if ya need someone to vent to
At first the reason I wasn't really seeing my friends was because we were all busy, plus some had gone overseas for a few months, even then we made sure to meet up at least every couple of weeks, even if it was just to see a movie or play some video games. A while later we just seemed to stop hanging out as much, there were months where I would call or text to try and arrange something but we could never get anything going. They never tried to get to me and I started trying less and less, now I start to question if they really cared. The last time I can recall seeing a friend in person was my birthday last year (July)
still have my friends on here, make sure to chat with them every now and then, but with no friends here and no girlfriend anywhere, it can get lonely.
3051604 Yeah it was really difficult for me to land my first job - just like you say, everywhere prefers to employ those with experience. Eventually I found a job though (it was just before the Summer period, I think lots of people open up positions around then), and the boost I got from it was seriously helpful. The only thing you can do is keep applying, which I know gets disheartening very quickly
Ah I've thought about going into Journalism too! But I've never really been able to get into that kind of writing. I think I'm like you - it doesn't feel very me. My creative writing - especially fanfiction - is the closest I've come to feeling like I'm doing what I'm meant to be
Hmm, I know how you feel with losing touch with your friends. I used to meet up for Dungeons & Dragons (or at least to hang out every fortnight) with a group of friends I met through the local comic shop, but lately no-one's putting the effort in (and they're all busy when I try to sort something out). I hardly see any of those guys anymore, and it's pretty gutting since we all got along so well - what with all being interested in the same geeky kind of stuff.
Fortunately I've got my brother, and a few friends that are usually eager to hang out when I call on them, so it's not so bad for me. Thinking about it, most of the guys I regularly hang out with now are friends I've made through brony meetups
I don't suppose there are any of those near where you are? Brony meetups I mean. They're an excellent way to meet new people.
When it comes to not having a girlfriend though, I would count my blessings. All I'm sayin'
Well, I know where you're at man, because I've been there (seriously, the more you say, the more it sounds exactly like me between leaving college and getting my first job). Sorry you have to go through it too
If it's any consolation though, it does get better. And you've made friends here that'll be sticking around in the meantime
