Author's Note

Tis time for another review.

August 17-Review 4

The next morning, Apple Bloom exited Tippet Manor with a suitcase provided by her guardians. She then said good bye to Lord Tippet.

"Thank you for letting me stay the night, sir." Apple Bloom said politely.

"You're welcome, my dear." Lord Tippet replied. "And, thank you for helping me solve last night's mystery."

"I did have help from Rarity and Hoity Toity, you know."

"And, I'm grateful to all three of you. Farewell, my young friend."

The farm girl shook Lord Tippet's hand in friendship, and went home. After returning home from spending the night at Tippet Manor, Apple Bloom felt very relaxed. She put away her nightgown, given to her by Lord Tippet, then started to write stuff down in her diary.

August 5

I was invited by Pinkie Pie and her family to help take care of the home of the Devil Family for three days. Those folks are away on a beach vacation. We did all the stuff they would do. This includes setting up for a Tiki Party. Some of us tried to do some selfish acts. But, all got foiled. Those devil folks were proud of us. Especially that fella from the Devil/Human Relations Group. I still have that picture of both families together.

August 8

Principal Celestia asked me to join her in a launch bay. It seems that Sunset Shimmer and Wallflower Blush were recruited to sort out some aliens who infiltrated the crew. Our friends were observing the crew carefully. They figured out who the imposters were and ejected them. The astronauts who were left behind were grateful for this mission being a success. I wonder if those aliens are still upset about their plans being ruined.

August 9

I felt as sick as a dog. Hi temperature, coughing, sneezing, I didn't feel good at all. Luckily, Olga is there to help me. And, she had help from the Mother from Monster Seeking Monster. The way this woman was taking care of me, she kind of reminds me of MY mom. I felt very relaxed knowing these women helped me through my sick day. Kevin and Amy were grateful for Olga and the Mother helping me get better.

August 10

After my day of rest, I went over to the old section. I decided to visit this mom and pop store. After finding a cute coloring book, I was invited to play a game of Word Spud. The other kids who were playing were very impressed with my word skills. One of those kids won the game. But, that game was fun. Granny Smith would like that store.

August 11

Twilight Sparkle asked me to accompany her to the home of Jerri Rig. I have a feeling that means I'm in for a game of Time Jinx. Time traveling was quite the head rush. So was attending parties in different decades, exposing imposters, and going to the future. It was quite the experience. Learning about history was never like this.

August 12

I was doing some shopping to find a new movie for my collection when I ran into Vinyl Scratch. She and I were brought into a game of Earwax. We were trying to put sounds into prompts. The pairings of sounds were quite hysterical. Vinyl won that challenge. Having a good ear for music sure came in handy. I'll bet her roommate, Octavia Melody, is proud of her.

August 13

Me and my fellow Cutie Mark Crusaders, Sweetie Belle and Scootaloo, found ourselves in the Zeeple Dome. Them astronauts who exposed aliens days ago were thrusted into this outer space game show. It was a lot of excitement. Seeing them de-engergizing aliens before defeating them. After the fun and games were over, my friends went back to Canterlot. We'll get together again. I'm sure of it.

August 14

Back at Sweet Apple Acres, I often wondered about what frogs go through. We'll, that's what happened to me. I was changed into a frog in the realm of Junktopia. To my surprise, so we're Applejack and Rarity. The Junktopia wizard had us do some shopping. We renamed the items we bought and gave crazy back stories about them. Rarity won this game. We're glad we're changed back to normal. Even I won't like eating flies. Yuck!

August 15

I was at Mrs. Krink's house where I reunited with the folks of Maretime Bay. Sprout and I watched the crew play a game of Fakin' It. It was hysterical. Those guys were doing tasks while the Faker tried his or her best to blend in. Everybody had fun though. Even miss Opaline Arcana was enjoying herself.

August 16

I received an invitation to attend a gathering at Tippet Manor. I ran into Rarity and Hoity Toity, who were invited too. A lot of surprises at this gathering. The biggest surprise was that somebody got murdered. . Working together, Rarity, Hoity Toity, and I discovered that former Wonderbolts, Wind Runner, was the killer. Rarity said that he's a male chauvinist pig who probably thinks women can't do anything. He'll think about his actions from jail. I even got to spend the night there.

Extra entry

For six nights, from August 10 to August 15, I went to the haunted house to watch Trixie Lulamoon take part in Monster Seeking Monster. Every night, I watch all of these characters date each other. The monsters they embraced were affected. Werewolf, Body Swapper, Mummy, Mother, Monster Hunter, Ventriloquist Puppet, Invisible Person, and Trixie's monster identity, the Witch. The power of the Witch helped Trixie win that challenge.

After closing the diary, Apple Bloom laid down on her bed, and she took a nap. Back at Canterlot, the Rainbooms gathered at Sweet Apple Acres, thinking about how this summer was going.

"Apple Bloom was very helpful to me and my family." Pinkie Pie said happily.

"I'm sure she is." Rarity added. "Just like she helped me at Tippet Manor."

"Tippet Manor?" Fluttershy gasped. "Is that the setting for Weapons Drawn?"

"Indeed it is, darling."

"I think that Time Jinx experience she and I went through was fun." Twilight cheered.

"I'm sure it is." Rainbow Dash said. "You probably liked hanging out with Jerri Rig."

Twilight blushed as Sunset Shimmer added her own comment. "She got you there, Twi."

Applejack was having thought about her sister. With two and a half weeks left until school starts, I wonder what other surprises Apple Bloom will be in store for.
