The past few years have been...they've been.

I am currently still trying to better myself emotionally, and I can (for the 2nd time) assure the doctor that no, doubling up the medication does not help, it only ruins my life. I love it when doctors don't trust me. It's beautiful to feel a personality-changing fight-or-flight response.

Finally discovered my ponysona, as well as a friend's. Mine is Silver Thread. Why?

Of all the poets, it is Dorothy Parker who inspires me most. Her wit, her sarcasm, all bleeds beautifully into her poetry.

And Roseluck's name happens to resemble a specific poem...

---

One Perfect Rose

A single flow'r he sent me, since we met.
All tenderly his messenger he chose;
Deep-hearted, pure, with scented dew still wet -
One perfect rose.

I knew the language of the floweret;
'My fragile leaves,' it said, 'his heart enclose.'
Love long has taken for his amulet

So...this episode had a very out-of-character Applejack.

Since it is now...semi-canon (seeing as so much this season has been SO CONFLICTING; like snowflake), we need reasons.

I say? Applejack had something happen the first time she was left alone, or left someone alone in the past.

Go with that where you want.

You may have encountered it before --- the story starts. You get curious what'll happen. But the story's quality? Painful.

I happened upon an extremely painful story. It started alright. It's just been getting worse. Every new chapter is worse. Suddenly, there's no commas. No details. Pacing is gone, characters aren't in character...

But if you stop reading, you won't find out what happened.

But it's regressing in quality, like Charlie's writing in Flowers for Algernon.

I think a good portion of why I can't tolerate the thought of writing is my lack of free time in general. Any day I work, I have none. Yes, I only work about 20 to 30 hours a week (recently only 15 to 20), but I take 2 buses to work and 2 back. In total, travel time one way is 2 hours, the way home is the same.

Here's my state of mind for inspiration right now:

--- Short Story about Derpy and Silver's participation in the Rainbow Falls episode ((written up to her arrival thus-far))
--- Trying to get inspiration for the chapter of Silver's introduction. But I finally know Silver is the missing element I needed, he is the driving force.
--- Spent 25 minutes brain-storming Apple Trees and their origins, reasonings, etc.

Pinkie Pie.
Twilight Sparkle.
Rainbow Dash.

All currently in a Rite-Aid store near you!

All come in varying qualities; I almost ended up with a dual-horned Twilight (sewn as one; it looked like a drill), my Dashie has an uneven face, and my Pinkie is a bit stockier. But I'll put it more that Dashie's Derpy's friend and Pinkie's an earth pony. In the end, I chose all three mostly on the way their hair fell/looked. They looked best from what I could choose from.

AND THEY'RE AMAZING.

Every time I open up "new chapter" in one of my stories, or my poetry collection I haven't published yet, I cringe. I'm in a rut right now, and I'm not enjoying it one bit.

- The sounds during flight (rapid ascent/difficulties/etc) were distracting. Even more-so in my second watch-through. As much as I appreciate what they're trying to do, we were all well-aware of her difficulties with flights. Some of the scenes were illogical, her flight just...not fitting her wing movements even slightly.

A lot more often now, I have troubles falling asleep. Or staying asleep. Or not staying asleep too long.
