OK, here's what my new computer and high-speed internet connection have done to me: It's 8:38 A.M. I never went to bed. I stayed up all night listening to music on YouTube (mostly stuff from the '60s and '70s, since I'm an oldies freak.)

It was also an excuse to break in the computer speakers I bought the other day, but didn't hook up until last night. I had quickly realized that the speakers built into my monitor sounded hideous, like the crappiest transistor AM radio you can imagine. They also had a ridiculously low maximum volume level. The new speakers sound much better. I cranked them up and rocked out all night.

Now, I guess I'll go grab an unhealthy breakfast at Mc D's.

Well, it would appear I'm going to be taking a free SAT exam along with other juniors at my school next month. Already registered, and for free.

Looks I got plenty of time to prepare, so...yeah.

Oh dear God...

There are some pretty cool 3D crystal puzzles I found, assembled a blue gem from these things. I can imagine Spike getting Rarity and Twi some of these.

"Mesa called Pink Pink Binks! Mesa your humble servant!"

Ginger: That won't be necessary...

Fluttershy would make a great C3-PO.

If the snark would be toned down some...

Would R2-D2 be played by Spike or Twilight? Twilight is more brainy, but Spike is more of a multi-purpose sidekick.

I think R2-D2 is Spike. Luke is Twilight and Yoda is Celestia. I guess Anakin is Luna.

Oh, and Aurra Sing is Derpy.

Nah, Derpy is Boba Fett. They're both insanely popular despite not doing much.

Aloysius is R2-D2, obviously.

"Who?"

RD - Anakin

Twilight or AJ - Obi Wan

Scootaloo - Ahsoka

Zecora - Mace Windu

Luna could be Palpatine. She has the requisite amount of HAM to pull off the role.

Hmm, I guess that means Aurra Sing is Vinyl Scratch then. They've both appeared only once but they're insanely popular anyway.

OK, I have my unhealthy breakfast. Nom-nom. Nom-nom-nom-nom.

Which pony would be Darth Vader?

I could have lived the rest of my life without seeing Ponypede.

Twilight - Your overconfidence is your weakness.

Nightmare Moon - Your faith in your friends is yours.

(I Disqord in place of NMM is more fitting.)

RD - just watch that scene from play where Commander Hurricane and rest leaders first met, Hurricane look like force choking Puddinghead ).

Hi everyone!

I've some good news. I had the critical meeting, and they have agreed to try and help me transfer to the History Department.

Now nothing is set in concrete, and the History Department might not want to know, but I have a chance.

To all who have wished me well during this difficult time, I thank you.

Hi everyone!

Well that's a great start, Apple. In my experience transfers are rarely ever completely smooth, but a least you've got help.

Oh, we're on Star Wars/MLP. Well I don't have much to contribute

Well I read an article linked over in world building about how birds actually work. Among other things, you need to have specific wing and tail designs to specialize in high speed, maneuverability, flying silently, hovering, etc. Also birds have very sensitive respiratory systems since they have huge lungs to breath so much.

I wonder how much it applies to MLP pegasus designs. Probably not at all, since Equstria doesn't have laws of physics.

Hello, Applelight and Ginger. Glad to hear that you have a chance. Hope all goes well.

@storyyeller Of course they have laws, they're just different from ours.

@ Ginger

Thanks! I'm not entirely confident that this will go through, but it's better than nothing.

Oh my dear Jesus what was that

...ahem. So how are you doing this fine morning?

@Storyyeller: It's magic.

@Apple: Good to hear things are going well. Yeah, transfers tend to be a bit troublesome, but it's great that you're making some progress. Hope everything works out well.

Trying to avoid clicking on links to ponified you know what.

@Light Phaser Is that a Pony Centipede link?

Glad that it's not. My reaction to the commercial:
