From the Diary of Cheerilee
Friday, October 4
Dear Diary,
I can’t describe to you the rough day I had today. We had presentations in class today where each student was supposed to do some sort of performance in front of the class either alone or in a group. Sunny-Daze and Peachy-Pie did a skit similar to what they did for the talent show just over a year ago (without the roller-skates this time), so adorable really. Twist showed the class how to make peppermint candy canes, go figure. Diamond Tiara and Silver Spoon did a presentation on why they were better than everypony else and I promptly failed them both. Then at the end we had the Cutie Mark Crusaders, I should have known better than to allow them to team up for this. This was where my day really went to the dogs. They decided to do a science project with unstable chemicals. Where in Equestria did those three even get unstable chemicals? Needless to say, their experiment caused a reaction that forced us to evacuate. It was a good thing we got out when we did because just as I had gotten out, the chemicals exploded. Now the classroom is now in disarray and I am in need of a new roof.
I escorted each of the crusaders home and explained the situation to their guardians. I saved Applebloom for last so I could talk to Big Mac about the roof, but found out from Applejack that he had gone into town.
I made my way into town and found him without too much trouble. I explained that I needed a new roof, leaving out Applebloom’s part in it knowing he would hear about it later. I asked him if he would help me tomorrow and he said “Eyup”. Maybe this day wasn’t a total waste, I mean, it did earn me a whole day with Big Mac.
I have been having feelings for him ever since the Love Poison incident with the Cutie Mark Crusaders. I can’t tell if my feelings are genuine or if I’m just a silly mare with a crush resulting from extreme circumstances. I’m hoping that tomorrow will clear that up. My inability to understand what is going on is the reason I haven’t flat out asked him out yet. I just don’t know what will happen. Maybe I’ll ask him out tomorrow while we’re working on the roof, wish me luck.
