The struggles of a normal stallion

Well yesterday was... Not the best of days, I'll admit. Oh yeah, it turns out the competition was next MONTH. *Sigh* Well, I got up, went to the library to see if there were any books about gardening... And gardening tips, 'cause of the whole "No magic" Rule those dicks have, everypony thinks I'm gonna cheat there to, I've met the competition, I'm a Unicorn, my talent is gardening, and my name is Life, they probably think I'm gonna "Go zappy zappy then plants will grow" Damn racist Earth Ponies, thinkin' I'm gonna use a spell just because I'm a Unicorn.

So anyway, I walked in the library, and... Wait that's her from the bar... Before I could make a quick escape, she decided to come talk to me. Life is a cruel bitch, wait a minute, that's insulting me... You know what I mean!

"Hi, need any help finding a book?" Asked the Purple mare.

Maybe she thinks my face is normally red...

"Um... I... Uh..." As I was bumbling on, a small Dragon walked down the stairs and noticed the situation.

"Twilight, time to feed Owluicious!" Said the Dragon.

"Oh, coming Spike! Please wait right here Mister." Said the purple mare, who is apparently Twilight

"Owluicious?" I asked "Bit of an odd name, aint it?"

"It's Twilight's owl, anyway..." He looked expectantly.

"Um... What is it? Is there something on my face?" I asked, confused

"Your welcome." He said, being quite annoyed at me not thanking him apparently, "Don't worry man, I know what its like to have a crush, 'cept I'm better at talking to said person"

"..." I said nothing.

"Aaanyway, need a book or somethin'?" He asked.

"Oh, yeah, I do, for an upcoming gardening competition."

"Unicorn?"

"Yeah."

"Racist Earth Ponies?"

"Yup."

"wetting yourself?"

"Yeah- wait WHAT?!"

After a bit of laughter, he went back to looking for the book and talkin' to me.

"So, how did you know that anyway?" I asked.

"Twilight tried the same competition a while back, when she was in Canterlot. she was having some sort of midlife crisis I guess, bit stupid when you know your talent, if ya ask me. Anyway the same thing happened."

"Ok... Did she win at least?"

"Nope, the judges WERE the Earth Ponies, certain she cheated with some 'Fancy prancy magics' but she did make a few friends, pen-pals now though." He replied

"Well, lovely, just lovely" I sarcastically replied.

"Found it!" Said Spike, feeling good about himself.

Jeez you found a book, don't get to full of yourself

"Thanks man.... Dragon.... Thingy..."

A couple minutes later, I was walking around, not much to do, Punchy was working, Octavia was... Wherever the fuck she goes when she plays her cello, she never told my, and Vinyl... I don't think we would be able to hang-out alone...

I decided to visit my cousin, Applejack, well I was adopted into the family, that's how I'm a Unicorn, but still, shes kinda a cousin.

As I walked in the barn, I was met by the smile of a happy filly.

"Cousin!" Shouted a happy Applebloom.

"Hi Applebloom, been forever, hasn't it?" I said, as Applejack walked out

"Howdy Life, how's the gardenin' thingamagiger goin'?" Asked Applejack

I guess gardening is different then farming if she doesn't even know what it's called, farmers these days.

"Good, hows Big Mac?" I asked, keen to catch up with the family

"He's good, I'll go get 'im" Said Applejack as he walked back in the barn

I then noticed two other fillies run up to me.

"Hi there mister!" Said one of them

"Hi!" Shouted the other

"Hello" I said, trying to act... Less like myself, since there just fillies and all

"Hey, Life? This 'ere is Scootaloo, an' the other filly's Sweetie Belle"

"Ok." I replied.

It was then that Big Mac came in.

"Hey Macky, like the nickname yet?"

"Nope." He replied.

"Farmin' been good?"

"Eeyup" He replied again.

After about three hours of just catching up, chattin', blah blah, I had to go home, so I walked back up the street and went to my house, I had nothing to do, so I obviously took a nap instead of read the book I got, because it was the logical thing right?
