“Your friends, they are jewels,/Twice as beautiful and few.” -Iron & Wine, ‘Friends They Are Jewels’
After being enrolled at the School of Friendship, Ocellus took it upon herself to record her numerous findings about friendship and other aspects of life at the school.
This was so awesome in a way I struggle to describe. I honestly think a story in this format would work for Ocellus, or a character like her at least. It just seems like a perfect fit for her. Also, the notes themselves act lole writing prompts for the readers imagination. And you made so many! I hope this helps you write more in the future.

Thank you for the kinds words! I had a lot of fun of writing a fic like this with Twilight, I thought Ocellus would be perfect for this style as well!
And yes, feel adding the notes to add a little fun to each incident. Honestly, these six are way to fun to write for.
*is looking at the cover art*
Huh, I didn't know Ocellus had made the acquaintance of Closer-To-The-Sun...wonder how they met.
I've long been looking for a good term to describe those frills a lot of (but oddly not all) dragons are shown to have, and "ear fronds" seems like an excellent one. I just might have to
stealborrow that for myself in the future...Liiiiiike as shown here?

Considering the often pictographical nature of many of the math equations shown on the show, I like to think this wasn't actually not nonsense, just an attempt at a serious math equation, and it's only unsolvable because it's the equivalent of dividing by zero or something.
If anything, Ocellus, your choice to disguise it as a diary probably only made it more likely for creatures to try and steal peeks of it.
So I know "Draft Punk," but I don't know the other two.
Darn you, Starlight, I was enjoying these, and I hate that there's some I'm now missing out on!

Feel free to use the ‘ear fronds’ term! I discovered it when exploring the MLP Wikia.
Yup, that’s the one! I loved the idea that I couldn’t help but add it in.
Plot twist: it was a history question.
The Runaways, De La Soul, and Daft Punk. I love ponifying music.
