Sometimes when I make a new friend I tend to look back at things I write. I try to see me as they would see me just from what they can read here. Does anyone else do that? Am I the only weirdo out there? I mean in this area?
Anyway, looking at my tags list, I started picking out random ones that I knew would make me feel better. I got a not-so-great rejection letter tonight and needed a pick-me-up. So I clicked on
this tag and read the first entry and it immediately helped. It also served as a good reminder of the way I am. Things I need to keep working on.
There isn't much to say tonight. I got my webcam in so I can start my vlogs but it SUCKS so that's not going to be a thing that happens any time soon. Not happy about that.
Tomorrow I will post my opening scene for Faymore, as I do with every new project. It's something I feel a lot more confident about that the thing that got rejected and shall never be spoken about again. And as always, I'm looking for feedback. Be it "you suck!" or, "ZOMG that's the best thing I've ever read EVAR!!!!111" as long as there's something letting me know it was actually read, that'd be sweet.
In conclusion, pony meme!
My friend
mippa mentioned something about it on a few occasions in her journal. She's much more into cartoons and anime than I am so I never really gave it much thought. I keep trying to remember what it was that made me go to YouTube and watch the first episode but I cannot remember for the life of me. And honestly? I don't know what made me go past the first part of episode one. Twilight bugged the crap out of me. I thought she was really snotty and self-inflated and just did not like her.
I know I didn't go on to the second half right then. It took me another month to realize how big and how loyal the fanbase had gotten. And if that many adult people thought a cartoon was amazing there had to be a reason for it. So I gave it another chance and by episode three I was entertained. By episode seven I was hooked. By episode eleven I was positively in love.
