Day One
Dear Diary,

Today was hard... I was banished to the moon for trying to cause everlasting night... I spent the rest of the day smashing boulders with my magic. Of course, Celestia left me a damn diary. Now she'll know everything I did up here. It's not like I have anything better to do. I guess that means I have no excuse not to write in it. Enjoy reading all about my banishment Celestia!

Day Two
Dear Diary,

I smashed more rocks. I paced. I tried to sleep. I couldn't. Celestia sent me a telescope today. I think she meant for me to do some moon stargazing. I used it to spy on Equestria instead. Those ponies continue to hate the night. It's hard to handle the thought that it wasn't just because it was my night that they hated it...

Day Three
Dear Diary,

I decided to try moving around more today. I found that the gravity is way lighter here. I bound around, which lightened my spirits some. I can't fly though, as there is no air to push against. I'm now trying to figure out how it is that I can breathe. It's quite curious, but my current best guess is that being immortal lets me live without actual oxygen. Also, it's REALLY cold here.

Day Four
Dear Diary,

I was wrong. I held my breathe to the point of my face turning purple and it had a definitive effect on my perception of the world, indicating an effect of lack of oxygen. This gives me more to consider... My revised hypothesis is that my advanced respiratory system is able to filter the trace amounts of material into a breathable mix. It seems unlikely.

Day Five
Dear Diary,

This issue continues to frustrate me. I can't seem to discover what it is that allows me to breath here. My respiratory system, under closer examination (Celestia sent me a mirror with the journal) is just as basic as a normal pony's and thus my previous hypothesis was disproven. I examined for magical interference but nothing turned up. I'm going to take a break tomorrow and explore some more.

Day Six
Dear Diary,

I explored some today. I found a mountain that looked kind of like a pony face so I began shaping it. I soon realized I was forming a likeness of Celestia, so I blasted it with magic. Another observation of the environment here, my magic doesn't seem to be replenishing. I have begun writing by hoof. Earth ponies make it look so easy... The pencil just seems to make its own shapes. I tried using my mouth, but I'm so used to using magic that even that is extremely dificult for me.

~NM

Day Seven
Dear Diary,

It's been a week without a single actual communication from my sister. I'm disappointed that she hasn't checked on me yet, though she might be mourning my banishment. I feel Nightmare Moon's influence waning. It seems I was using up her magic and so I have begun using magic again.

Author's Note:

Please. Give me all of your criticism. Please. Also, is 3 in the morning a good time to write stories? It seems to be working for me.
