Starlight glimmer tries eating bacon

"Are you sure this thing works, Twilight?"

"It does? Okay good."

"Oh, crap. It's already going. Hello everypony, Starlight glimmer here. I've been hearing that both my mentor, Twilight, and Applejack's younger sister, Apple bloom, had both started vlogs where they try something that they haven't tried before."

"I've been wanting to start one for quite some time, but haven't had any ideas about new things I could try until a few days ago."

"I bet that you're wondering, "What is this thing that you wanted to try?" Well, a few days ago, I went to go visit my friend, Sunset shimmer, in the human world."

"Listen Twilight, I did tell you. But you were reading at the time and probably weren't paying attention."

"Whatever. Anyway, I went to visit Sunset. While I was there, Sunset asked me if I wanted to try a piece of bacon from that world, which is apparently not plant-based bacon. It's meat-based."

"Yeah, I know that it's disgusting. But the whole point of this is to try things that I've never tried before."

"Well, I'm going to do it anyway, Twilight."

"Sorry about that. Anyway, I'm going to ask Sunset to come over with some bacon from her world."

"Hey, Sunset. Thanks for coming, did you remember to bring the bacon?"

"You did, great."

"But you've got to cook it first? Okay."

"Well, this will take a while."

"Why do I have a camera set up? Well, I just started a vlog similar to Twilight's."

"You want to know how many episodes I've done so far? This is actually my first one."

"Each episode will have me be trying something that I've never done before."

"Sure, you can say hi to the ponies that will be viewing this."

"Well, the bacon isn't even close to being done. I'll be back in a bit."

"I'm back, and the bacon is done."

"Of course I'm sure, Sunset. Now hand me a piece."

"Well, here goes nothing."

"Wow, that is terrible. Please give me some water, Sunset. I want the taste out of my mouth."

"Thank you."

"I am never trying real bacon again. I'm sticking to haybacon from now on."

"Of course not, Sunset. I'm sure that you're cooking is great, it's the bacon that I despise."

"Well, thanks for coming Sunset. Say goodbye to the viewers."

"See you either when I come visit, or you visit us."

"Well, goodbye everypony. Until next time."

Starlight tries babysitting Flurry Heart.

"Hello everypony, Starlight glimmer here. Apparently I was asked to babysit Flurry heart while Shining and Cadence are in Canterlot for an important meeting with Princess Celestia, and Twilight is there too."

"So I've asked my friend, Sunburst to help me, as he knows how to take care of Flurry."

"So, Sunburst. What's the first thing on the list?"

"Giving Flurry a bath? Shouldn't be too hard, right."

"Okay, you go get Flurry and I'll prepare her bath."

"Phew, that was harder than I thought. Apparently Flurry doesn't like baths, so we had to chase her all over the castle before we were able to get her in the bathtub."

"What's next on the list?"

"Feeding her!? Oh, crap. I've heard Twilight say that she likes to use her spoon to catapult mashed peas everywhere."

"You've had that happen to you too, huh."

"Well, let's get this over with. This time, I'll get Flurry heart."

"That was a horrible experience. This will take forever to clean up."

"Well, what's next on the list?"

"The next two things are burping her and then changing her diaper. That will hopefully be a lot easier."

"Wait, where's Flurry?"

"Ugh, you look that way and I'll look this way."

"I hope that we find Flurry heart soon."

"Woah, what's wrong Sunburst?"

"WHAT!? She destroyed the Crystal Heart again?"

"Why are you laughing? This is serious."

"Oh, haha. Very funny Sunburst. Let's just finish this list."

"Well, we've finally finished everything on the list."

"Oh, thank Celestia that they're home."

"No, Flurry was very good. Though Sunburst joked that she destroyed the Crystal Heart again."

"It was a lot less funny at the time."

"I don't think that I'm busy next week."

"Sure, I'll watch Flurry again."

"Okay, bye."

"Well, that was a little fun, to be honest. Though I'm not sure if I'll want to babysit Flurry every time they ask."

"Anyway, goodbye everypony, until next time."

Starlight tries not using magic for a full day

"Hello everypony, Starlight glimmer here. Today, I'd like to try not using my magic for a full day."

"Yeah, I know that I use magic most of the time. But most of the time is not today."

"Oh, hey Trixie."

"I'm sorry, but I can't help you with magic today. I'm trying to go a full day without using any magic."

"Sure, I'll do it tomorrow."

"Perfect, see you then."

"Well, I promised to help Pinkie bake a cake today. So I'm heading over to Sugarcube Corner now."

"I'm here, Pinkie."

"So, what's the first step in baking a cake?"

"Beating eggs? Okay, done."

"Why am I not using my magic? Well, I'm trying not to use magic for a full day. So, what next?"

"Mixing in flour, sugar, and milk? I'll let you handle that."

"You want me to put it in the oven in a large circular pan? Okay."

"I think that I'll be continuing this when the three layers of the cake are done."

"Okay, I'm back."

"So, Pinkie, what do we do now?"

"Put the frosting on? Okay."

"Great, that's done. What did you say that you needed this cake for, Pinkie?"

"M-my birthday? Ugh, I completely forgot about that. Well, what time will it be at?"

"7:15? What time is it right now?"

"4:30? Okay."

"I'll see you then."

"Okay, it's 7:15 now and I just got back to the castle, and I still have not used any magic today."

"Now, I should sign off now before I walk in. I know that there's a bunch of ponies in there."

"Until next time, farewell."
