The princesses may have gotten me to write in this stupid thing but they will not make me print a date, or time. Hi, my name is Loser, no, just kidding, my name is Electro Shock, I am a unicorn with a spikey mane and a jagged tail, the mane's color is blue but my coat is an electric yellow, as well my eyes match the color of my mane. It isn't the most discreet color scheme but it works. On my flank sits a cutie mark of multiple lightning bolts surrounding a pony. Yeah, I use electricity magic, deal with it. I am currently writing in a stupid magic journal that will instantly send what I write to the one who raises the sun, yep, princess Celestia herself will read every last word I write in here so I guess I have to watch my language. Anyways I am not like any other pony out there, and no, none of that everypony is special crap, my mind works at a mile-a-minute, but it goes in the wrong direction. I will look at a test in school and I will think of two plus two as some kind of trick question, I will over think it until I run out of time for the test. That does NOT mean I am stupid, I know that two plus two is four and that the square root of sixty four is eight and all that junk, I just can't answer questions right. I tend to look for pieces when the puzzle is already solved, I look for answers to rhetorical questions. So that is why I have this journal, that is why I have the princess' attention, and that is also why they shipped me over to happy happy friendship land, also known as Ponyville. So yeah, I am now on a train bound for Ponyville, writing in a magic journal, with about fifty other ponies thinking this is a diary, thanks a ton Trollestia. I am so getting my ass kicked for that one, but it is still gonna be worth it. Until next time, if there is a next time.
- Electro Shock.
I sighed and stuffed the journal back into my bag along with the quill and ink, I looked out the window to see that Ponyville was only a mile away, lucky me. I get to hang around with the elements of harmony for the next year. I swear that this is gonna screw my mind up even more than it already is. I lid down on my bed and tried to get some sleep. Three seconds later a deafening screech is heard and the train abruptly stops. "Welcome to Ponyville!" a voice said over the intercom.
"No shit." I said, throwing my pillow at it. I grunted and got up from where I was lying, opened up my door and walked to the nearest set of doors. I stepped out into the fresh air of Ponyville, it smelled terrible. I was used to the urban smells of Manehatten, you know, the smell of vegeburgers and vomit.
"There he is girls!" I heard a voice say to my left, I turned around to see six mares walking towards me.
"Hello darling!" Rarity said to me as they approached.
"Sup?" I said, trying not to talk. Rarity raised an eyebrow but never said anything.
"Hello, my name is Twilight Sparkle, you must be Electro Shock." Twilight said, extending her hoof. I knew it was for a shake but I just gave her a hoof bump. "I trust princess Celestia has already told you about us?"
"Yeah." I said, there is one thing about me that I forgot to write in my journal, I am not good around other ponies, I talk a lot less and I try to make myself unnoticeable, which always fails because of my bright colors. I shuffled back and forth awkwardly.
"We'll show you around town!" Twilight said happily, breaking the awkward silence that had fallen over us. I simply nodded and followed them as they led me into town.

I thought I could actually get through this tour without any social interaction, silly me. After Twilight showed me where her house was she started to inquire where I was going to stay. "Do you have anywhere to stay Electro?" She asked me.
"I'll find a place." I said back to her, trying to end the conversation quickly. I failed.
"I think there are some places in the west of town for sale." Rainbow said.
"I'll check it out." I replied, trying to sound friendly.
"Ya'll don't talk much do ya?" Applejack half asked, half stated.
"Bingo." I said, then immediately regretted it as Pinkie took in a deep breath, she was famous for her speed talking and I knew this was how it started.I braced myself for the verbal beating that would ensue.
"Bingo! That is my favorite game, next to hungry, hungry hydras of course. Do you like bingo? Well of course you do, who doesn't like bingo? Isn't bingo such a fun word? Bingobingobingobingo! Come on say it with me! Bingobingobingobingo-" She just kept blabbing on and on until Twilight put a hoof in her mouth to stop her from talking.
"Pinkie, I think you are giving Electro a headache." Twilight said to the pink mare.
"Oh, sorry." Pinkie said to me.
"Its alright." I lied.
"Oh yeah, if ya can't find yerself lodgings you are perfectly welcome to stay at ma family's farm, Sweet Apple Acres!" Applejack told me.
"Thanks." I said back.

The tour went on for another ten minutes, and then we parted ways so that I could find a house. It wasn't long until I found a nice place, so I paid for it using some of the bits Celestia gave me. It was already furnished so I walked in, locked the door, and jumped onto the couch to sleep. I couldn't find dreamland yet though, so I decided to write in the journal.

I finally got off of the train and was immediately greeted by the elements of harmony, they then took me for a tour around town. When the tour was over we parted ways and I found a house, and bought it. I put the quill down, there had to be more to write about right? The town is nice and all, but I feel a little homesick, either that or its all the social interaction making me queasy. I am socially awkward, there, I said it. When I am around other ponies I feel like they are all watching me, waiting to see my every move, it makes me uncomfortable and I always am worried that I am doing something wrong or embarrassing myself. They said to me that they would start trying to help me tomorrow, so I have until then to crash at my new place. Much better. I pulled a blanket over myself and finally was able to get to sleep.
