trip to emergency room · 9:53pm Mar 20th, 2017

pretty much what the title says. was taken to the ER by ambulance last night, got the problem looked at and fixed after several painful hours and was discharged. still have a major surgery scheduled for wednesday which will suck. sorry for slow and nonexistent updates. will be celebrating my birthday in the hospital which is a thing. and will probably be offline for quite a while.

update schedule · 9:06am Nov 11th, 2016

my current plan is to update every other week. this is not a quick thing i decided but put thought into. if its every week i feel rushed to just write which adds pressure which makes it boring and more likely to burn out. it is also still frequent enough for people to remember what they have read. gives me wiggle room for when crap or things pop up in life.

to gauge interest · 8:34am Nov 6th, 2016

sorry i have been away. Finally graduated, applying for jobs overseas and have a surgery coming up. So actually have some spare time on my hands (hooves?).

So the question is this. Are people still interested in my stories? if so which ones?

hiatus/dead · 3:04am Jul 25th, 2016

Yeah...

I have been taking max loads, have 2 surgeries coming up and then comes job hunting as i graduate in 7 weeks

Not to mention as my health improves I write less and less as the motivation was mostly the depression and I need to find a motivation that works better

I don't even read lately, no time and no interest and I am a bibliophile. But when you have to read 300+ pages a week for years because of school. That's the last thing you want to do in your free time

the hell of school · 3:35am Apr 13th, 2016

Was going to have some stuff up but well....

Health is going well but kinda maxed out my unit load and feel like I'm drowning. 4 classes with a ton of reading. Have 2 papers and 2 midterms next week. This will go on for the next 8 weeks or so? If I get something up, that will be a minor shock. In the next chapter for school days i will be adding in my actual thoughts on UCLA both as a place of learning and an institution.

Fuck it, change of plans · 3:49am Feb 7th, 2016

okay. I was trying to be subtle and twisting things and the hiding things so time for a change. As it was just causing conflict with readers and certain facts. I still maintain some aspects but may rework them to be more believable to some (but not to all, sorry but yeah) I will reveal what is actually going on behind the scenes either soon or soonish, as in the next 3 chapters. Whether it will be as a full chapter or an add on or an A/N will be decided later.

The local pony club I attend started a pathfinder game with ponies. This is a small segment the DM sent around as a reminder to people what happened and is a "prologue" to the main game. So I don't have a character yet, but in this one every character was ran by two people working in union. Was thinking of playing a lawful good changeling paladin that worships Celestia. Just want to pick something interesting.

Recently recovered from surgery and haven't felt much like writing. But how many people are still following and wanting this story to continue? Not sure I will continue any written work but may decide to if it is as popular as it seems.

School has started. Debating how much writing I will get done or if I want to release what I do have as it takes time. Studying Chinese Lit, Japanese language and World Politics. Last week was a policy brief on Ukraine and one reading was a pro-Russian perspective which was actually fascinating, this week is ISIS and how they started.

Lots of annoying medical tests. Have some great ideas but no time. Freshmen are annoying as always. Tired.
