All photos taken at Bronycon 2017 “Polaroid” is really a song about the friendships I’ve gained and lost during my time in the fandom. There’s a lot of things from my early MLP days that seem quite forgotten; things that a lot of people probably don’t know. After getting into the fandom, a lot of my exposure to it came from the Instagram MLP community. At one point I was a relatively big Vinyl Scratch roleplaying account with almost 2000 followers. It’s funny to think about it now. During that period of my life, I made a lot of friends. Most of those people I’d lost contact with, a choice few I’m close friends with even now. I know for a fact I was a lot more intense about music back then, more judgmental and cynical about everything and everyone. We’ve come so far, all of us. We lose friends. It’s a part of life at this stage; sometimes it’s hard to accept it, sometimes it’s easy to let negativity out of your life. But friends who remain through the hardest times, the cruelest fights; those are the friends that make friendship worth it. There’s a magic in that, I suppose.

Where did we regret We’re so attached to a picture But we’re not aware of the past A polaroid hangs in the window But the memory would last
