    My day has been pretty good today, I got some good time in on some projects I've been working on. However, I can't sleep, and guess I'm going to just be waiting until the new episode comes on, then going to bed.

    Today is cool! I woke up by thinking "I'm already on holidays". So I will tidy my room up, read for a while... and then I'll go jogging until my launch.

    I'm sorry to hear that, though I do hope you get some sleep eventually. :]

    Sounds like an excellent way to spend time. :]

    My father took me over to the local shooting range so I could fire his old rifle, which I do believe was a high caliber one. If I'm correct, it was along the lines of a .65 Caliber rifle or something. When I fired it at the dummy target, sweet Celestia did that thing have quite a kick to it! It felt like my feet were lifted off the ground slightly, and I thought firing his Remmington sniper rifle had the most recoil in it... We don't hunt, but my father is fascinated by the mechanics in our everyday hunting artillery. Maybe I should record a video of us out there, and post it on YouTube. :3

    Nonetheless, I had quite a fun day, hehe.

    I know there's a .775 Caliber rifle... but the kickback on the rifle I used had to be a high caliber one. I didn't look at what it said on the label, so I'm not sure. If you've heard of FPSRussia, he showed the .775 rifle in a video of his.

    The .68 caliber was first used in black powder rifles. The lead ball used was big around as your thumb. It was very inaccurate but if you did hit what you were aiming at.... yea it was not pretty. As for the .775 cal rifle they call it the T-Rex gun. They guarantee that it will kill one. Granted you have to find one first. I want to shoot it.

    Also I want a hoof gun.

    I think I might post about my for once.

    Today could have been better, I basically lost my job due to the fact that it's winter vacation for college students and there isn't enough money to pay my salary until their vacation is over. I come home and find that they're having a giant discussion about the status of the current rep system, I do hope they take it down, just because I have a red gem doesn't mean I'm better than any of you with purple ones. I also realized today that I'm started to lose grip of who I am again, Saikyo really nailed my flaws into my head and I realized that not only do I fail at helping people, I can't form a correct opinion or statement due to my desire to strike a balance between my mind and emotion... it rarely happens. I really do wish I had empathy, they'd have to use the jaws of life to pry me from consoling all the people I wish i would've consoled at some point, or to even correct some mistakes I've made due to the constant argument going on inside of me. I do feel things, I just struggle at feeling for others and for that I feel like a failure as a brony. Completely retarded, I know, it really is, but I don't really know what to do anymore, I really don't. I use to find peace in this forum, but now it's another place where people will judge me for my mistakes that occurred due to my inability to comprehend some people's feelings.

    So why haven't I tried doing anything drastic? Simple.

    My mind and heart finally came to terms on something, something I should've done a long time ago. What does this mean? It means I'm getting better as a person.

    And sometimes a little bit of hope is all a person needs.


    I'm jelly, that TV sounds amazing! :omg:

    That's like a mini cannon in your arms right there XD Speaking of which, I actually shot my dad's gun a few times today, hard to aim with glasses though. X]

    I'm glad you resolved that into disappointment rather than anger, it'll come in handy in the long run between the two of you. :]

    Of course, of course.

    Sorry to hear about your job loss. Hopefully you find a new one.


    It's weird that you mentioned all the above stuff. Since the whole saikyo and me thing a few weeks ago. I haven't felt the same. Everything that it meant to be a brony was ripped from me. I go on the forum and I feel awkward. I used to be so excited about new episodes. I haven't even watched MLP in 3 weeks. I haven't listened to any MLP music at all really. I just all around feel different, like something changed.

    I really just want time to think. But with work, computer breaking and my sleeping issues. I just can't find the time. I want someone to talk to, but like the past I think they would just turn their back on me if I asked.

    Not really how was my day, more like how I've felt the last few weeks.

    I haven't felt like a proper brony since the fallout I had with ePONY, I hope I mended things through my recent actions though.

    Thinking is a good idea, I never really seem to sit down and give my life a proper scan anymore, I think I'll do that tomorrow... maybe now.

    My favorite way to think is to play minecraft. It just lets me be me. I have no goal and nothing to distract my thoughts. Just blocks and nice music to keep me company.

    I suppose it depends on our state of mind. We need encouragements and new experiences continuously. But sometimes we miss the things we did in the past.
    Obviously, we need time to do things that make us feel good and think about.

    Snowy Shuffles: I hope you find a new job soon. Good luck mate!

    Pixel hope: Chin Up! :D

    Thanks Rain. I'm trying I really am. I don't like being like this. I don't feel depressed. I just feel different.

    I don't think so. I'm my normal self. It's just feels different. Like a part of me was forced to leave. Hopefully it gets sorted out soon. If not I have a week vaction coming up in 2 weeks. That will give me lots of time to think.
