Apple Bloom goes back to her diary.

August 4-Review 3

Apple Bloom lays down on her bed happily. No trouble from bullies from Canterlot. So, she's very happy on this Sunday morning. Looking out the window, she sees the sun shining. That can put a smile on anybody's face. Afterwards, she takes out her diary and began to write down her experiences from the past 10 days.

July 25

I was invited by Dean Cadence of Crystal Prep to join her in the old section. She is involved in a game of "You Don't Know Jack 2015". So are Principal Celestia, Vice Principal Luna, and Abacus Cinch. Cinch said that she's a trivia queen of sorts. But, Luna sure put her in her place. Sorry, Miss Cinch. There's always next time.

July 26

I was asked to be a gopher in the Bomb Corp. It wasn't that bad, if it weren't for all of those frequent bombs that had to be disarmed. I even helped an alien deliver a baby. This alien, Jade, and her baby are doing fine. We still keep in contact. I sure hope there won't be anymore robots from the future coming to hurt those two.

July 27

I was invited by Trixie to join her on a little voyage to T Shirt Island. Not only was the atmosphere relaxing, but we also battled each other in a T shirt competition. I won that garment gauntlet. But, Trixie had the most victories. So, she won the streak. We were allowed to keep the shirts we made. Each of our shirts had each other's designs. Talk about a nice souvenir.

July 28

Me and my friends arrived at Doodle Valley. Me, Sweetie Belle, and Scootaloo were joined by Diamond Tiara, Silver Spoon, and that young maiden, Cozy Glow, were asked by the mayor to help with a project. Each of us tried our best. I even came up with a title. Cozy Glow was impressed with the title. Her addition of the crown and cape was an inspiration.

July 29

I went to a strange antique store. Greeted by Zecora, I was lead to the basement where the Rainbooms were. As well as their friend, Starlight Glimmer. Suddenly, we were all thrown into another dimension. Seems like the girls were invited to play a game of Split the Room. And, I get to watch the action. All of these hypotheticals really baffled the mind. Eventually, Rainbow Dash won the whole thing. When I went to bed, I had dreams about that experience. Wow!

July 30

Me and my cousin, along with four friends of mine were given a free night at a lovely hotel. We soon realized that it's a trap from our old 'friend', the Trivia Psycho. Seems like he wants to play another game of Trivia Murder Party. Those new mini games gave us a lot of trouble. But, I got lucky and won the game. The staff apologized for that shadowy character's antics. So, we stayed for the night.

July 31

After leaving the Murder Hotel, I was greeted by Miss Opaline Arcana from Maretime Bay. She gave me a lift to Mrs. Krink's house, where I helped with the birthday party weeks ago. A group of young people from Maretime Bay are gathered for a game of Blather Round. For some reason, one of the people, Hitch Trailblazer, got angry when mentioning me. After the game, he apologized to me. Seems like Garble approached him and his friends and told them about me. Guess Garble and his pals ain't done with me yet. What a way to end July.

August 1

I found myself in the art studio of Pamela Palette. I remember being with her sister, Penelope, for a game of Drawful. Now, I get to play Drawful Animate. My drawing and animation really wowed the crowd. It was of a woman in love with jigsaw puzzles. That helped me win the game. This is a good way to start for August.

August 2

I went with Twilight Sparkle to the laboratory of Professor Nanners. An intelligent chimp who wears a headpiece that transmits her voice. The two of us and a few others played a game of Nonsensory. These writing and drawing tests weren't easy. But, I'm happy people understood my contribution. After everything was done, Professor Nanners complimented me for my participation. I guess she was impressed with my work.

August 3

Me and the folks I stayed with went to the Jackbox Theater for some kind of show. I noticed that Fluttershy was there too. She had her brother, Zephyr Breeze, volunteer for a challenge. A master hypnotist put a spell on Zephyr and seven others. Looks to me like a game of Hypnotorious. Zephyr really thought he was Dick Tracy. When the show was over, we got together outside the theater. Zephyr was still getting over this feeling.

After closing the diary and putting it away, Apple Bloom wondered what she can do today. Suddenly, she gets a knock on her door. When she opened it, she was greeted by Sunny Starscout.

"Hello, Apple Bloom." Sunny said happily.

"Oh. Howdy, Sunny." Apple Bloom replied. "What brings ya here?"

"Me and my friends are heading for the local swimming pool to cool off from the heat of the summer. Would you like to join us?"

"Sounds like a good idea. I'll have to ask my guardians first."

Fortunately, Kevin and Amy agreed to this idea. They figured that Apple Bloom can use some time to relax. Later, at the pool, people are enjoying themselves. Folks are swimming, diving off the boards, and just hanging out. Even Apple Bloom and her friends from Maretime Bay.

"Enjoying yourself?" Opaline Arcana asked

"I sure am, Miss Arcana." Apple Bloom answered. "Thank you for letting me join you guys."

"You're welcome, my dear. I always thought you were a good soul."

Apple Bloom watched Zipped and Pipp racing each other in the pool. This is the type of day to let loose in a good way.

"You're okay with me, Apple Bloom." Sprout said to himself. "I'm glad you're joining us."
