Rarity's Diary

My dearest diary;

I was walking outside a store after buying some new paper for future designs, when suddenly, on my way inside Carousel Boutique, Sweetie Belle, Apple Bloom, and Scootaloo accidentaly crashed into me with their scooter. Sweetie Belle was openly apologetic, asking if there was anything they could do for me to forgive them, despite no kind of grudge being held. I asked that they let me try the paper on them, and I giggled to myself as I planned this funny joke. They were so focused on searching for Rainbow Dash that they weren't even listening to me, so they went through with anything.

Once paper touched Scootaloo the slightest bit, she realized where she was, and I discovered that my sister and her friends were still obsessing over their cutie marks. With them calmed down for once, I explained to them the story of how I earned my cutie mark. I already said all about it in my first entry, but if I ever had the opportunity to tell Sweetie Belle how I earned my cutie mark, I was planning to make an entry about my mark longer.

Unlike other cutie marks, I earned mine through two talents: Gem finding and fashion designing. I mentioned that the outfits I designed for my classmates in the school play were just so bland, and I felt as though my teacher simply forced herself to tell me how nice they were. When my work was in jeopardy, my horn traced me to a remote location. I eventually came face to face with a giant boulder after being missing for days on end. In fact, my father told me that while searching for me, he looked in a desert, and found an abandoned hay hat that he now casualy wears.

As unimpressed as I was with this rock, a sudden blast exploded and I was alerted to the boulder opening up with jewels inside. The sparkling gems were perfect to help my outfits shine.

My sister and her friends weren't impressed though. Scootaloo didn't like the fact that finding your cutie mark is to do with finding out who you really are. I raised a suspicious eyebrow when I was interrupted, and then raised both eyebrows when I noticed the very suspicious way Scootaloo was pushing her friends out the door.

With barley any business booming, I decided to spread the word about my cutie mark story to all of my friends. I wanted to start with Pinkie Pie, since I know the least about her, yet when I reached there, all of my other friends were there.

Twilight, to get her mind off an awkward situation she didn't want to talk about, wanted to drown her sorrows with cupcakes, Fluttershy and Applejack had no work to do, and the two of them even invited Rainbow Dash to Sugarcube Corner since Sweetie Belle and the others were looking for her.

I wanted to announce my story to the others and to get my message across, I stood behind the counter. However, before I could even begin, Sweetie Belle and her friends reached Sugarcube Corner with Pinkie Pie, looking for Rainbow Dash. Rainbow recalled her story to myself and my friends. I wanted to go first, but I'd do anything to make Rainbow Dash happy.

While defending Fluttershy against those brutish bullies that I met at the Best Young Fliers competition, Rainbow Dash had challenged them to a race, and not only did she win, but she caused the sonic rainboom that Pinkie Pie had talked about not too long ago. It turns out that that blast though is what caused the rest of us to all earn our cutie marks.

Fluttershy got her's from comforting frightended animals after hearing the explosion. When she talked about her cutie mark story to me at the spa, she never mentioned the sonic rainboom. All that she mentioned was an uncanny explosion.

Pinkie Pie was only taught to smile from the sonic rainboom's colorful patterns. Before that, she was miserable.

Applejack believed that the rainbow that pointed her home was Rainbow Dash's sonic rainboom.

My recall of my connection to the sonic rainboom was shorter than my friends. I was just so enthralled that I spoke small talk, wanting to save my spectacular story for later.

Twilight said that if it wasn't for the sonic rainboom, she wouldn't have passed her entrance exam.

We all learned that we were all best friends before we even met. We group hugged each other, and then sang a song. All we really sang was words to do with cutie marks and our destinies, but Scootaloo was covering her ears with cupcakes she stole from Twilight. I feel obliged to thank how my cutie mark turned out. And I also can forgive Rainbow Dash for what she did with Philomena to me a couple of days ago for causing this special connection. But I swear, if I ever lay an eye on that bird again, I'll sneeze on it. See how cool it is then!
