Zadik had this teenager attitude. He didn't like work, but he was excited by the thought of being a scaler. Being a scaler is a serious job, requiring skillful thinking, physical strength, and a keen eye. He's more or less an adult with teenaged impulses. (not like peter pan... =( lol)
Nadin is exactly like an annoying little brother. He too is a scaler in training, but he's less serious about it. He's more interested in playing with Zim, his cousin. He's a little on the shy side, and tends to slink away. Nadin is a hyper little guy, but he's quiet when it comes to dealing with his society.

Tiny People
I have had a series of reoccuring dreams of a race of people who are 3 to 5 inches tall. I ask myself, I said, "Self, why do you continue having these dreams?", so I started thinking. The storyline is already set. The characters all have names and jobs. And I have my bad guy, or, rather bad guys.
I was an important little guy named Zadik, and I had a very important job. Zadik was a scaler. His job was to climb up the walls of houses and buildings to look out for the rest of the group. Now, Zadik wasn't alone. His younger brother, Nadin, and his Uncle Bezzle were scalers too. They lived in the same hut, which was a "borrowed" baseball cap, with their Aunt Kaz and cousin Zim.
The area in which his clan lived was a mattress depot. There was plenty of surface area to roam, and the area didn't contain a cat, which would have devistated Uncle Bezzle's rat ranch. Uncle Bezzle was known as the clan's breeder. (They used rats as we use horse and cattle.) The only normal human they had in contact with was the son of the depot's owner. 19-year-old Brad Lemons was a quiet individual. He had no friends, so when this social outcast discovered these tiny people, he was eager to befriend them. Brad supplies Uncle Bezzle's rats with food, and when he can, Brad likes to watch Uncle Bezzle and Zim break the new rats in.
However, there are some men out in this world who see these little people as a threat to government balance. The Externments, a group of government agents, hunt down the clans and destroy them. It's a government district that, for most, "never exsists".
So, now that you know the basics of my first dream, I think I'm going to write this down. Enjoy it next time!

How to say something nice...
There is something to be said about a compliment. Not everyone will like your work, but I think there is a kind way to say so. I hate rude people who clump together, because they love to bust people up with no regard to personal feelings. I'd like to take this time to explain what's wrong with our class, and how we as a group can fix it...
First off, we need to realize that when we have a problem with something in a piece, we need to know why. If you make a comment about something without cause then you're not doing the class or the writer any good. Reasons build our knowledge. To fix this, try writing your reason next to the section of the piece. And if you just don't know why, wait it out. Someone might say something about it to jog a thought. Then you can just repeat what someone says, just to reinforce the point. Which brings me to the next point...
When someone repeats the same damn thing, don't get mad. We aren't a bunch of assholes. So, when it comes down to it, take notes to better your writings. However, the flipside to this is that if it's obviously been repeated over and over, don't be a jerk. Unless you have something new to bring to the table, you don't to the one millionth winner of "You did this wrong". If the point was made, then that should be it and we move on. I feel like we waste most of our time repeating each other way too much. So take notes on what people say, and try to be respectful...
My third point is sometimes we write from the heart, and sometimes we get hurt. I'm in no way singling anyone out, because he without sin may cast the first stone. But I feel like a lesson in respect could do us all some good. I don't like some styles of writing, but I still try to find the good in things, and I think we all should try to do that together. We are together in this, whether we like it or not...
My final word on this is that I try to respect everyone, and I know I fail at that at times. But I try, and I feel that many grow because of that. So, when it comes down to it, try to be sly by making your point without making someone made. In the end, I think we'll all be better off...

Magik Food
Have you ever eaten something that was so good you couldn't stop eating it? Food is evil, it makes you want more... I honestly think food manufaturers put heroine inside those Mint Oreo Cookies. I can't have them, because I finish off the whole damn pack in one sitting. And what about Ramon? It's like the new mac n cheese. It's easy to make, tastes great, and fun to eat. Now some of you are going to bring up the fact of weight, but I beat you to it. I submit to you that it is not fatty tissue, but just your soul is swelling from joy of eating what you love! =) Tonight I'm having tacos. Tacos are my absolute favorite, and you can bet your ass that I'm going to stuff my arteries with that disgusting taco sauce! I love food, and I know food loves me back. I submit a challenge to Bobby Pearson; I bet I can eat more tacos than you can tonight. If you win, I'll take my WoW account and turn it into a money making business for you. You can have all my money. But if you lose, I get to kill you in Halo 50 times! Take it or leave it big guy, your going down!

Reptilian Humanoids and Such Cont.
So I really like this idea of dino-people, but I thought up a new twist. It parallels "Planet of the Apes" in the way that humans (us) are captured and used as slaves for the domanint race. It's been done before, but I think I may have a way to make it differ from the others. Perhaps if I make it about a slave-gang gone bad or something like that. Like the humans grow smarter and revolt against the dino-people. I'm not sure why, but it still has that "Planet of the Apes" feel about it. Ugh, this is going to annoy me... >=(
Well maybe i could make the story about Earth's twin sister, which orbits just as fast as us on the other side of the sun. That way it wouldn't have been seen with the other 7 planets... =) Hey, this is good! I could roll with that! Okay, but that still comes back to "Planet of the Apes". I can't seem to escape that, can I?
Let's see, what else can be thought of? Ummm, oh, characters! =) Let's see, well, we need a hero. Someone who's going to make the journey to this new world... Let's call this new world Elista! =) That's a good name! So, our hero must make the perilous space journey to Elista, fight those foul lizard freaks, and save the day! Hmmm, he'd need a heroic name. Carol! No... Chi Chi! No... I've got it! Chuck Norris... ... ... Nah, too robust. Hmmm, how about spaceman Sam? Nah, how about Lucas? Yea, Lucas! Lucas the spaceman, from planet Earth! Works for me...
So Lucas's ship is going to orbit the sun, and his crew finds a planet! "Oh hey! Look, a planet!" And his crew talk him into landing on it, because it's got oxygen on it. "Let's go!" "Kk." So as they land they take a wrong turn and crash land and everyone basically dies but him, so Lucas has to learn to live in this modern jurassic park. And he comes across dinos. "Oh hey! Dinos!" "RAWR!!! Num num num!" "Ahhh!" So then he's captured and forced to work in a mine to mine iron for their war ships. But he finds some other humans and they fight and most of them die, but he gets away and steals a ship and takes home to planet Earth... But they follow him, and then he finds out they were planing to enslave all of planet Earth, and that's what the war ships are for! God I'm good! =)
Tell me what you think!

Reptilian Humanoids And Such
We all know dinosaurs onces existed. And if you really think about it, without that awesome asteriod, we humans probably wouldn't be this smart and evolved for that exact asteroid. Thanks mass extinction... But what would it be like if that asteroid missed earth so long ago? What if the dinosaurs had become like we are? What if dinosaurs still ruled the world?
Imagine, if you will, a human. Now imagine this human with tough, scaly hide. Oh god, I just had a horrible realization! What about the sex organs?!? Sex is kind of a mammal thing, and reptiles lay eggs. Ok, so imagine this reptile humanoid, with tough hide, no outer sex organs, probably cold blooded, and lays eggs. Wow, these guys don't seem to know how to have fun. Pregnancy would be weird. She'd lay her eggs, then he'd say, "Hey, I'm hungry! Honey, where'd you put the eggs, I'm gonna make an omlete, you want one?" Okay, so that might not be too funny if it were real, but damn it, we survived that asteroid! I think we deserve to laugh at the dinosaurs.
Anyways, so now you're thinking like me. You realize what I'm getting at. And now, I submit to you this question; When the "2012" event comes, who will replace us? Will it be the birds? Will they grow larger, and learn? Or will it be the fishes of this world? Will they create "Atlantian" cities under the waves while the land wastes away at the surface? If you ask me, my theory is this; we evolved out from under the reptiles' feet, so in equal contrast, the next kind of animal that'll inherit the earth will come from the same place. I believe insects will be the next humoids!
So now I've ripped your brain apart. Well, I'd say I'm sorry, but I'm not. So, my next step is to do research on mammals, reptiles, and insects. So, if you have any websites, or random pieces of information about it, please give it to me...

NEW STORY IDEA
I've decided to write a story about a magic printer in a boring library, where whatever you print out would come to life. If an avid writer were to write masterpieces of dragons and warriors, it would wreak havoc on any unsuspecting librarians within the library! I should probably start with a story plot...
Who --> (main character) teenager; avid writer; social outcast; creative/resourceful
What --> (printer) magic; brings literature to life
Where --> (place) a nowhere town; boring; "gray" and dull; library
When --> (time) the present time
Why --> BECAUSE I CAN!!!
I could do with some advice. =)
