Entry 13, July 15, 1001

I tried Celestia.

No, I tried sister.

I had been progressing well under the guidance of Merlin. I even learned how to teleport accidentally. Though I did end up inside of my sister's wall.

So after another eventful study session, Merlin decided it was high time to raise the moon. To say that I was nervous would be a understatement. Though with Celestia, Merlin, and Cadence present, I felt as though I should try.

My horn lit up, my aura capturing the moon, and nothing else happened. As much as I tugged, it wouldn't budge. I tried again and again, eventually tears began to flow. For some reason, it felt as if the moon was repelling me.

Merlin apologized many times afterward. As horrible and angry as I felt, I didn't have the heart to lash out at him.

For the second time this month, I slept in my sisters bed.
