FMF 22: 9 June 2017

Hey guys. I know it's been a while since I've done one of these things, and well, I guess that's partially what I'm here to talk about. So let's get started...

I don't see my Fandom Music Friday blog ending anytime soon, at least I hope not, but I'm seeing a disturbing pattern that's inhibiting both my fanfic and blog-writing progress. It starts with a deadline. If I miss the deadline, Fridays as the case is for my blog, I feel I need to hold myself to Fridays, which means waiting a week until the next Friday. February had 4 FMFs. March had 5. April had 4. May? May had 1. I'm not writing; I'm not blogging; I'm not journaling; I'm not expressing! I'm just sitting, waiting for another chance. Then when it comes by, I all but step aside and let it pass.

The beauty of MLP is its relatable characters. I relate a LOT to Fluttershy. That's both a good thing, and a bad thing. Even as I relate to her apparent growth across the seasons, I also relate to her regressions and introvertedness. Not that being introverted is a bad thing, but everything should be in moderation. My introvertedness most certainly is not. For that reason, Ponyphonic's "Shy Heart" speaks to me.

I know I'm not the best at communicating, and I promise I'll try and get some new content up soon. I've gotten a summer job, and my weekends have been busy with open houses and a wedding lately. This hasn't exactly helped my schedule. I'm still not convinced I've recovered from my emotional/psychological nosedive I took at the end of the semester either, but at least I'm getting counselling now. Maybe, just maybe, things will start looking up soon.
