March 28th (2nd Entry)
Ok, so after nearly missing my train, and pleading with the train attendant to let me on board. I was able to get the 6:45 express to Los Pegasus. Talk about way to close, even if I missed it, it would have been totally worth it. Considering, I hopefully made some progress with Ember Sky. Even then, it seems like pipe dream, but damn it, I can hope right?!
The train ride seems smooth enough honestly. A lot better than when I originally took the train ride to Canterlot from Tall Tale that's for sure. Granted this train ride was going to be at least two hours long, which is significantly shorter than the 7 from when I originally arrived. So hopefully I should arrive in Los Pegasus roughly around 9:00 at night if things go as planned. Considering I'd still be there early enough, and my first day at the station is tomorrow morning at 8:00. Maybe I could go out and see the sights or perhaps get a little of the night life that I've been reading up on that Los Pegasus is famous for. But should I really go out and party when my first day is tomorrow? Meh, I'd really like to... but I'm sure my first weekend off in town! Definitely!
I still know little to nothing on the station I'm going to be assigned to though. I didn't get any info on the ponies that are currently working their and what their staffing structure is like. For all I know, I might be in a big firehouse with up to 20 ponies, or even down to the single fire wagon groups. Who knows. I'd personally rather work with a smaller team, maybe get to know a couple of them better, and maybe you know. Make some friends out of the whole ordeal. I mean I've heard stories of comaraderie, and firefighters out on assignment treat their fellow firefighters as a second family. It'd be nice and all, but I doubt that would happen, especially with all the stuck up jerks I came across during the Academy.
But no matter, I'm finally doing what a lot of ponies in my family said I'd never be able to do! Take that extended family! You all said I was stupid for joining Canterlot's Fire Academy and that I was throwing my life away! Next time remind me to ruin your Hearth's Warming Eve, when you decide to do something life changing happens to you! Uh oh... I better scratch that out in case any one of my nosy family member's ever finds this when I go home later on in the year.
