The journal

Day 11.

Once again I am getting Spike the dragon to write this. Some ponies can use their magic, others their wings if need be, but most seem to do it with their mouths. No, just no way.

So in effort to never having to use my mouth for such things I have decided to kidnap Spike as my wri---

Apparently Spike does not want to be my assistant, so this arrangement will have to do until I have figured something else out. I've been working on my walking, I thought it would be easy at first, but your balance is off, and without feet and toes your brain is sort of freaking out.

Rainbow kept laughing as I moved into walls, but when I finally got a hang of it she stopped and started to suggest I start flying.

That sounds awesome! Who hasn't at one point or another dreamed of flying?

Sunbutt won't let me though, so me and Rainbow are trying to figure out a way we can practice. At first Rainbow suggested I jump from a window, but she was clearly joking. I think she really does want to teach me in a safe way, the others just seem to judge her without really hearing her out. I don't know what they expect us to do, do they expect her to kick me off a cloud and just see what happens?

Not sure, but in any case I'm not allowed to fly before I have a handle on my new body. I suppose I can see the purpose of that, so for now I shall remain a good boy and do as I'm told, which is to stay on the ground and read books...

I don't know if Celestia ordered that or if it was Twilight. Spike is groaning so I assume it's Twilight.

I'm supposed to study up on basic knowledge of Equestria, I don't know why, they say they would try and send me home.

You can't see it, but I'm sighing. Better get back to work.

An extremely bored Robin.
