How I Became A Brony

My Little Pony : Friendship Is Magic

Bronyhood.

What is a Brony ? If you do not know, this video will probably explain in general what you need to know about this fandom.

I remember being a toddler, watching the very 1st MLP, where there was actually humans in it. I loved it when I was a child, the songs was appealing to me and there wasn't much cartoons that are with such interesting story-lines back then. Tom and Jerry , Roadrunner etc are all silly short stories where one smack the other running around on a wild goose chase. MLP was one of the few ones out there at that time, with more interesting story-lines, moral values and I enjoyed it. 

I don't remember watching anymore MLP after that, as cartoons evolved, I soon too, watching more of Animes and other random cartoons aired in Disney Channel or Cartoon Network and even Nickelodeon which was much later. 

As those who know me I was a World of Warcraft player for 8 years in Hardcore raiding guilds. When WoW's launched expansion Cataclysm. It was good at the start but slowly it begin to go into a downfall as the game was going towards more to attracting newer players / casual players then keeping the old ones. 

Needless to say, I was in a guild that was about to break apart and during our last month together only they discovered there were "bronies" in the guild because no one actually talked bout the fandom. It all started when someone said to me "You really , really remind me of Fluttershy..." and at that time, I did not know what it was.

That nonetheless sparked a discussion and ended up discovering there's a few bronies in the guild. Then they proceed to get me to watch the show but I was really reluctant at 1st, because I love my animes alot at this point and I think I was midway watching an anime at the midst of this and I certainly din't want to have to watch some kids show !

Boy was I wrong bout it being a kids show. After I finished my anime I remember sitting around in game, running in circles where my friend bugged me again asking me to watch MLP. And at this point I was bored enough to say why not, he linked me a play list to the whole Season 1 on Youtube and it was a playlist that changed my life.

I instantly was captivated by the story-line, the animation and everything about it. It wasn't something I expected that's for sure. Not your usual kids show playing dress-up and make up that I was expecting but something more remarkable. 

I was immediately captivated by Pinkie Pie's personality, her energy and joy just makes her irresistible not to love. Like seriously, how can anyone not love Pinkie Pie ?! I start to also see some resemblance of myself in Fluttershy but she seems to be an extreme version of me. Oh and apparently I can sound like her if I wanted to LOL ! 

Well this is how I became a Brony :3 And call it fate and destiny , this is how I met my wonderful boyfriend ! Also one of the main reason I quit WoW, sorry old WoW buddies if any of you ever bump into my blog !! xD
