Falling

What To Do

I rushed home right after school. The pony next to me seemed like she wanted to talk with me, but I was to busy! There was no time for making friends; I had to keep working on my Pony Copter! Thoughts were running through my head. "I wish I could talk to Rainbow Dash about the Tank Copter, but she would never notice me. I have to find another way! Princess Twilight's in Canterlot so that isn't an option; come on Platinum, think! I pulled out my journal and turned to my most recent idea, The Pony Copter 6.0. It's supposed to work like the Tank Copter, but I can't figure out how to make it work.

I kept trying to work it out until Dad came out and called me in for dinner. After, I wanted to continue working, but Mom said we were having a bowling night. We bowled until dark, then we headed back home. And I got ready for bed. It had started to rain lightly as I showered. As I slipped my journal into my backpack I thought "I'll have to work on it during school, I guess... Recess would be the perfect time!" And with that, I hopped into bed and fell asleep with the rain pounding against my window.
