Not an important journal with no updates or anything... Just boring old life updates and stuff. Ignore if you want! 

Hi everyone! Long time no talk!

First off, I want to thank my few watchers that stuck with me for sticking around even though I haven't done anything in almost a year! I hope everyone is doing well, and is having a good holiday season! 

At any rate, I've been reminiscing recently about the short five years I have been an adult, and also about my time working in my career as an Auto Technician.

Ah, I remember when this song; "Trixie's Good Side" came out... I couldn't stop playing it! It was and still is my favorite song to come out of this community!

The song came out about the time my life started looking down; from late June - November 2011... I got laid off. I was upset and didn't know what else I could do in my life even though I was becoming more and more unhappy with my career choice anyway (who isn't), but it was a steady living that was paying the bills. 

It turned out to be a blessing in disguise; I was in the dumps at first, but I knew that it couldn't be all that bad forever! (Thanks, Pinkie Pie!) Turns out I had an absolute blast for those few months, I was out of the industry I grew to hate, (auto mechanics) and I started working with my uncle in construction and maintenance. I had an absolute blast, I loaded up a whole bunch of pony music up into my phone, and listened away while busy at work! It was those months I was the most active in the community doing some vectors and such. I gotta say, being a Brony back in the early days where awesome! There was so much good music coming out, fan fictions and such, with little expectations from the show and the community besides the small stuff here and there. It wasn't as big as it is now, it really felt more intimate back then. As I somewhat bragged before, I was one of the 300 people at the first BroNYCons to ever occur in Chinatown NYC in September 2011.

At any rate, November came around that year and I got re-activated at work. I was honestly upset about it... I knew in my mind I wouldn't be happy going back into it, but I had to take it due to the other job being seasonal. Due to the nature of how the auto industry is, it was busy for a while but business fell off again. I didn't get laid off this time... Instead they took me off salary and put me on what is called "flat rate". I had to work two jobs to get by. I lost all my free time and my activities in the community dissolved rapidly. 

Fast forward a year or so and I got promoted in my company. Normally one would be ecstatic; I was moving up to work on exotic cars for a living... Nope; No matter how cool it may be to get a raise, only work one job, to have an opportunity to drive brand new Porsches around, get to say I got to drive a Carrera GT, or be able to meet some a few celebrities and sports stars, I still look back on the time when I was the most happy back in the "rough times" when I got laid off! Ironic, eh? 

There is no happy ending to this story as of yet, but here I am, still working in a career I absolutely hate, with my ticket to finally get out of it getting closer and closer! Hopefully in a few months Ill be outta the dump that many call the auto industry and into a new career that makes me happy to go to work every morning! At any rate, this will be the first song I play if/when that finally happens!

TLDR: This song will always remind me of the best few months I've had as an adult so far. It will be the first song I play when I celebrate when I start my new career, whenever that may happen! 

Thank you for putting up with my rambling. Hopefully I didn't bring you down or put you to sleep! You guys are the best! :D

It was friggen awesome!!!!!! I'll get into it with a small review later on. Just got out of the theater....


OK it's later!!! haha


The entire Brony community should apologize for all the negativity they produced around this movie. It was, in essence, just an extended episode that took Twilight on a really big, and somewhat strange journey to not our world, per say, but to a world with creatures that somewhat resemble humans. I don't think that they said that they were human once throughout the entire movie. 

Without spoiling the thing, There was a few worries going in, and to stop that, listen to me; there is no SAPPY love story Twilight falling "in love" with a boy she bumps into, there is no high school girl drama, and there is no pre-teen gossip. It was genuinely good! :)

I trusted Megan McCarthy from the beginning, she really did a great job writing this. There is no major plot holes, and the story seemed to flow very well. It was cool to have what felt like an episode not feel rushed like episodes did at times did towards the end of season two. 

The ending happens kind of fast though, kinda in the same style of the episode Canterlot Wedding Part 2. 

That is all. I suck at reviews, but I don't care. I am a mechanic, not a movie reviewer. 

SEE IT! SEE IT! SEE IT!!!
