It was the first day of school. Thanks to Pinkie Pie, my stepbrother Sam and I had partied too hard the night before. So, we were late to school. The night before, my mentor, DJ PON-3, had taught me some new mixing lessons as a "Back To School Present." Her and Pinkie Pie were two of the only three reasons I'd gone. (The third was the mare of my dreams, Ariana! Sadly, she hadn't been there.) Rainbow Dash had been, there, too. She'd spent the entire night pulling pranks. Thanks to this, I managed to get my head soaked in punch about twelve times.

Well, Sam and I woke up two hours late. Our parents expected us to wake up and go to school ourselves, so they didn't bother checking if we had woken up. Sam was still asleep, mumbling something about Sara. (I forgot to mention, Sam like a mare named Sara.) I pushed Sam out of his bed. He hit the ground with a thud, then started to yell at me. I pressed my hoof against his face. "Shh!" I whispered. "If Mom and Dad know we're not at school, we're dead!" Sam nodded. We quietly got dressed, then flew out of the window.

I suppose I should explain Sara and Ariana. Sara is Sam's crush. She's a mare with a personality that's really wild and out there. She can do parkour like nopony I've ever seen before. Sam, however, is really sophisticated and down to earth. He's had to purposefully drop his grades and become wild all the time to get on Sara's good side. Ariana is my crush. She's a very sophisticated and smart mare, so I've had to change from being wild and out there like Sara, to being a very smart, down to earth colt.

Now I should explain our cutie marks. We'd lived in Canterlot for the first half of our lives, until our parents met. After we finished elementary school, we moved to Ponyville. We were extremely late getting our cutie marks. I got mine when I met my mentor, DJ PON-3. I got a vinyl scratch record. Sam got a -----. I'm not sure how he got it, though. Being that our cutie marks were of our actual personalities, and no the fake ones we'd adopted to get the mares to like us, we had to wear clothes to cover them up.

Regardless, we were now racing to school. We'd decided to have a race, because we were late anyway. I was flying as fast as Sam, when I remembered Ariana. If she saw me looking all windblown with my mane messed up, she'd see me as wild and not like me. I slowed down, straightened my mane, and walked to school. I walked into the middle of second period, and had to explain that we'd overslept and whatnot. Being that my last name comes right after Ariana's, I get to sit behind her in every class. Well, that's really all that happened that day. Ariana said hi, but that was all that happened there. So, I suppose that's it for this entry.
