A little about me.

Fragrance: 7:17pm 5/10/14

It is one of those evenings again. The ones where the sun sits in the sky creating shadows that expand across Pones. Pones is my home town. It kind of sucks, with the population being only fifty or so. Anyway I love these kind of evenings because I can sit at my window and really think. I like to look at the shadows. When I see the shadows it reminds me of my dad. My dad is a good stallion, hard and strong. He was my best friend forever. For the reason that this town is so small there are no good ponies my age. I have spent so much time with my dad that I feel lost without him, and ever since he left for his special mission in Canterlot, I have found myself sitting at the window staring at the shadows and thinking just like I am now. If you haven't guessed it yet this is a journal entry. I'm not very good at writing diaries. But my mom told me it is a good way to get a load off of my mind. I haven't ever told anyone about my thinking window before, or of My thoughts. It kind of does feel good to write this stuff down. If you want to know a little about me my name is Fragrance and I like to spend my time listening to music and solving intense math problems. Does that make me sound like a nerd? I hope not I really am a popular pony(maybe). I really don't know that actually. I don't really have any friends. There are these two other mares my age. They are bullies though and I don't like to hang out with them. Their names are Shea Butter and Pepper. Shea Butter is the obvious leader of the group of two because Pepper is a little screwy in the mind. I've gone through 16 years of their bullying and now I'm in high school. It has been about six months since they last bothered me. They have pretty much left me alone recently. Which is good because it gives me more time to sit by my window and think. I need to go. It's getting late and the sun is about to set.

Fragrance: 5:28pm 6/10/14

I woke up this morning and put my clothes on, something blue to go with my white mane. I ate a good breakfast. It was mostly made of fruit from Farmer B's orchard. I checked my teeth and applied some mascara to my eyelashes to bring out my blue eyes. I was almost ready for the day when my favorite song came on. I danced and sang along for a while. Then feeling excited for what will become of today I rushed out the door to school. First period was Biology. Boring. Second period I fell asleep as the world history teacher droned on. Then third period I learned a little about Spanish, or French, I can't remember. Fourth period came by. Then an extremely boring Fifth. Then finally sixth period, my favorite class, AP Calculus. I'm a little ahead in math for my age, probably because of my cutie mark being a trigonometry sign. I enjoyed every moment of it as my teacher talked about the new chapter. When class was over and the homework was assigned I was almost reluctant to leave. But my teacher forced me out of the classroom about 12 minutes after everypony else left.

I was unsure about what I wanted to do so I went to the store to pick up some fruit for breakfast tomorrow. When I walked through the doors of the store I saw Shea Butter and Pepper walking out of the small make-up shop. In an attempt to avoid them I tried ducking behind some stalls full of apples. But it was too late, they saw me. It all started with Shea Butter saying "Where do you think you're going four eyes?" Oh I didn't mention I had glasses? Well I do.

"Yeah going four eyes" exclaimed Pepper questionably.

"Um... nowhere just shopping..." I said.

"Oh really? For your incapable mom? She should just realize her time is up and die already". Said Shea Butter. It was more of a rhetorical question because my mom is incapable and I WAS shopping because she couldn't. Another secret I don't like to tell. Just about 3 years ago she got a disease that makes it impossible for anypony that has it to walk. She has spent most of her time in bed ever since. But die? Never, her heart is strong and she has courage to push through and live.

"Mom incomplible.." Another stupid remark from Pepper. She just shouldn't talk at all.

"Well I have to go now you know... buy some apples" I said grabbing a bag and stuffing some apples into it. "Bye"

I dashed away threw some bits on the cashier table for the apples and rushed home as fast as I could.

Shea Butter: 5:28pm 6/10/14

Saw that disgusting pony Fragrance today she was filthy with her stained clothes and ruined mane. I am totally the sign of perfection if everypony were like me Pones would be ten times better. It has been a while since I have seen Fragrance the next time she sees me I'll have something in store for her. Something she won't be expecting.

Pepper: A time today

Today was fun. I was all like incamplible n' stuff. Cookies.

Fragrance: 9:55pm  6/10/14

Today when I was running home I think I saw a new pony moving into a house in my neighborhood. I wonder what his name was he was actually kind of cute. He had a dark green mane and a lighter aquamarine body. His face, it was all warm and open plus he was strong. I could see the muscles bulging on his legs from what might have been a lot of lifting. I wonder if he is my age? No. What am I thinking? I must be crazy thinking I have a chance with him after-all Shea Butter will probably get to him first. And then ruin his life and rip his heart. Then maybe even kick him in the face for good measure. Ouch. I can't let that happen to him I should try to warn him. Or let him know of Shea Butter's possible intentions. Yes tomorrow I will save him from a terrible fate and he will thank me for my bravery. But that is for tomorrow. Right now I need to sleep I have an important Calculus test tomorrow.
