My dearest diary;

Twilight invited all of us to an upcoming meteor shower. I didn't pack any kind of outfit. My planned lunar sparkled outfit was unfortunately destroyed by Sweetie Belle. I held in my grudge towards her, but after she stole some of my belongings and now doing this, I wonder if revenge will even be necessary enough. I don't want to sink down to my sister's level. Maybe she doesn't mean what she's doing, but she needs to be taught some manners.

Even on our way, Sweetie Belle wouldn't stop obsessing over the fact that I'm connected to my friends thanks to cutie marks. It's all she talked about on our way to the park that night.

On the day that I found out that my cutie mark destiny was connected to my friends, beforehand, business was very slow at Carousel Boutique. I was so bored that I made two bowties. I wanted to give the two that night to the two most impressive of my lovely friends. After viewing Spike's usefullness, I came to a conclusion to give Spike the bowtie. Nopony else that night got even close to the accolades of Spike.

All of us fawned over Spike's sweet talking charm. Pinkie even called him Spikey-wikey. That pink pony is a genius with nicknames!

Adorable little Spikey-wikey worked himself to the bone and slept in a punch bowl. Pinkie remarked at how the punch had been "spiked," a clever inside joke about how Spike can sometimes be so juvenile that he acts like he's had too much apple cider compared to, say, Cheerilee.

The next day, Twilight asked Rainbow Dash to fetch all over us to come over to the library to marvel at Twilight's new pet owl, Owlowiscious. When I saw his feather pattern, and his vacant yet welcome expression, I gave the second bow tie to him, mostly because I worry that Sweetie Belle could destroy or steal another one of my items, not because I was impressed in anyway.

I had to leave quickly though. I had an arrangement to babysit Sweetie Belle and her friends again. I most likely would've asked Fluttershy for assistance, but she discovered that she accidentaly took all of my gala dresses, and wanted to stop by her cottage to bring the dresses back to me. I invited her over to assist me in taking care of those troublesome fillies.

But even with Fluttershy's help, the day was hectic. Sweetie Belle and her friends were really tempted to try on those dresses and play with them, and even as we restrained them, they were still curious. Curiosity killed the cat, I always say. In fact, they nearly killed Opalescence by accidentaly bumbing against a pin. Opal just hasn't been her chirpier self since then. Fluttershy volunteered to keep the crusaders in safe hooves. I still can't quite figure out how she pulled off taking care of them in the first place.

I'm glad I get to vent my frustrations out at Gummy's upcoming birthday party at Sugarcube Corner. Maybe I should drown my sorrows with the same kind of colorful cupcakes Twilight had a few days ago.
