***is it a dream?***

there i was, just glooming on my couch thinking about meaningless happy things that will never happen in my gereration "well one day ill meet a nice girl and live with her forever" is what i told myself, but it has been almost ten years from when i was 12 that i have been saying that. i knew it was'nt true. the only thing that makes me happy and will ever make me happy is that one TV series: My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic. i have been a closet brony for quite a long time, my sister died when i was 7 and a yer later both my parents died trying to protect me from a car that was about to hit me. the only thing they ever cared about was that i was alive and i was happy. i am sad to say that i have not done a very good job in keeping what they wanted. i didnt even WANT to be alive and i definetly wasnt happy (at least not all the time) when i  get bored i just go outside and think of and fantisise what a life i wish i had. thinking was one of the two things that made me happy. my little pony was the second. even my little pony has brought some sadness to my life. it just leads to more thinking, and that just leads to more pain and sadness. so yeah, of corse, stupid me, (i dropped out of school as a freshmen) was thinking more, laying on my sofa, watching my little pony. i go outside to think more in peace (like i dont get enough) but i trip over a gosh darn box. i get ticked off and kick the box out of my way, into the street but i THINK (theres more thought O:) i hear a noise from the box in a faint squeaky voice i hear someone utter "what in the name of celestia?" i get shocked but then move on to more thinking because i decide it was ore i go to sleepmy imagination to think those words. after hours of pain and thinking (and just a little happiness) i jump to reality and storm back inside.i make myself some burnt popcorn and watch the my little pony season 2 finale once again before i dose off to sleep. that night i have a not so awkward dream: i was dreaming about my little pony (go figure) and i was in equestria, as a stallion, with a cutie mark of a thought bubble (go figure that, too.) i am next to the many six and they were gabbering about something but when i got closer all i heard was grunts, nieghs, and snorts, unlike what they sound like in the show. was it because i havent learned thier language? oh listen to me! im talking about this like its real life and has a meaning! anyway there was a sudden thud and i wake with a start. i go outside to see what going on but am shocked by something odd. the box that i kicked yesterday was now faintly glowing in the darkness of 4:00 am. i get closer to see what in the hoof is going on. wait! Hoof? why was i spaking like this? wait! backtrack! this is what i thought: "was this really happening? all this is sounding fimilliar to when i read a story called my little dashie. box... earth... dreams... sadness... was this happening to me? i was getting a little overexited and ran strain to what i thought yesterday was litter. i open the box and his is what i find in there. an adorable... cute... just awesome... nothing. just a plain old cardbord box. but why was it glowing? now i was just getting insane. i took aout a pocket knife and tryed to poke the box lightly but i stopped dead from something invisibal force an inch from the box. i put my knife way back behind me, then stabbed it at full force against the box. right before my blade hits the cardboard, my whole world went white and i passed out. when i woke up i was in nothing like where i was. i dont feel a knife in my... hooves? i look at where my hands use to be and scream in terror. i almost immediatly put my hooves over my... snout. but i already hear hoofsteps in the not so easy to see world. when i open my eyes a little wider, there she was, standing before me, rainbow dash.(oh-my-oh-oh-my-gosh-oh-my-gosh-oh-my-gosh) i try to speak but the only thing that comes out is "raiboodah!" then she actulliany speaks to me "well hey there, fellah, need some help? i saw some giant light. thought my friend was doing some crazy magic again, but its just a teen in terror!" then i got the courage to speak back "well yeah, how did i get here? wh--" but i was cut off by rainbowdash "ohhhh so twi' IS doing magic again! her and her memory spells!" then i spoke again "well i i i i well--" but i got a great idea "say rai- i mean missy, i remember stuff now! tw- i mean your friend wasnt doing any crazy magic yet" so she responded "well okay then. say, ya wanna meet me and my friends at sugarcube corner today? well be there at noon" i wouldhave proberby poasses out there but i maintained my exitement and let out an answer: "uhhh yeeees!" i said stupidly. OH    MY    GOSH! i just got asket to go hang with the mane six! YAAAAY! when i got to sugarcube corner right after noon the six were arguing. "ra'ibow! are you serious? this was supose to be just us six! we dont need your boyfriend here!" applejack whispered tencely. "I think we should throw him a party and we can be the  seven ponies!" exclaimed pinkie pie. i think it is wonderful dear for rainbow dash to get in with a relationship. im sure he is a GEM!" fluttershy just said blankly "stop talking guys. i think thats him." that seamed to get thier attention. the six ponies there all tilted thier head twards me. Ooh! Ooh! LOOK! HE HAS A THOUGHT BUBBLE CUTIE MARK! MABEY HE MAKES COMICS!" screames pinkie pie. then i looked down at my... flank and noticed not only the exact cutie mark in my dream, but that i was a pegasus pony. "well sit down, darling!" rarity said as she offered her seat next to rainbowdash. she tryied to keep a strait face buy i could see her grinning. this is just awesome! i went from the saddest life on earth, to sitting next to rainbowdash in equestria. EQUESTRIA!the six of us chatted while pinkie went and made us cupcakes. she came back with a large tray of tastey treats. she handed me an exseptionally large one and said "to...." "thought" i made up a quick stupid name "to thought! rainbowdashes new boyfrie--- i mean, friend!" she declared as she grinned. days went on and the seven of us would meet at sugarcube corner each day. after the third day i just cracked. i HAD to tell them where i came from and who i was. i told them all and they semed to believe me. "so your an alien? COOL!" pinkie exclaimed twilight sparkle mouthed the words to the other ponies: we have to tell celestia.no! i just couldnt let them! i would be sent back to forever sadness and forever thoight and forever boredom. i had to make celestia let me stay. i had to stay here i had to  stay in equestria.
