Project: Timeline

Project: Timeline is a new creation of mine, where I will be creating a possible future for our society, leading up to the events of the 41st century and the Millenium War. So far, possible events have included the Solar Wars (6-way war between Mercurians, Venerians, Humans, Martians, Jovians, & Cassinians), the Great War (a.k.a. The Big One, huge war between Communism and democracy that rages indefinitely), & multiple other overused scenarios. It will borrow events from the Taethosian Idea Workshops and my private universe, even using some of my roleplaying characters in the process. So far, The Big One is more likely to take the place of the Solar Wars, due to the ease of moving the Solar Wars-style combatants to a different time & place.

If anyone knows of a site/application that allows you to edit the world map, please tell me because I will need to change country boundaries and make new ones etc.

School

Me and my dad are planning on sending me back to regular school. The reason for this is that my dad is now having problems staying ontop of me and doing his work at the same time. If he gets a good situation at school, I will still have a good education, he won't be driven nuts by me (that'll be the teachers' job) and he will be able to do his work without distraction. It's a win-win situation, especially since my social skills have been greatly improved since my last encounter with public school. That means that I won't get into trouble as much (yay). In conclusion, sending me to school will be a giant step forward in our family.

Bendarian Brain Borer

The Bendarian Brain Borer is a small, leech-like creature found in the fungal forests of Bendaria, the planet nearest to the star Idris. Bendaria is shielded from the intense radiation of its star by a thick, reflective atmosphere prone to powerful electrical storms. The Brain Borer lives in hives mostly in the gills of the smaller carnivorous mushrooms. It is a small creature, six inches in length with a slimy, lumpy body that tapers off at the rear. It has a "mouth" which is a ring of teeth surrounding a long, sinuous "tongue". They also have stubby feet in 4-5 sets of two. They hunt by hiding in the undergrowth not far from their home, usually a small mushroom 5 feet in diameter just visible above the grass-like molds. These mushrooms have a spongy substance growing on their cap, which the Borers use as hives. They will leap out from their hive by quickly flicking their bodies rather like a spring. After latching on with the teeth, they inject a powerful paralizing agent, then crawl up to the head and latch on again. Their "tongues" will then burrow into the victim's brain using a sharp pincer at the end. They then suck out the gray matter after "chewing" it with the pincers. Then the fungi they use as a home (Lethifold mushroom, Necros vegitans narcus) will uproot its root net and envelope the corpse and devour it. These fungi are often found near campsites, as they will not hesitate to smother and ingest a sleeping person.

Good School Thingy

Recently, for an English assignment, I have done good work. I didn't do this awesome work the first time, but I did this eventually. Assignment: Write a short, imaginative story about a pet that finds its way home. The Result:



Bob was a cat who lived with a loving family in Ohio. One fine summer morning the family took him to Florida with them. They stayed in a cozy hotel, where Bob was often content to lie upon the bed while the family was out at Seaworld, Six Flags, Disneyworld, and Adrenaland. However, he soon discovered a way to sneak into the kitchen and raid the pantry. It was on one of these trips to the kitchen that the family left. Their heads being filled with tales of wonder & delight from their vacation, they noticed Bob's absence not. Soon, they realised with a start they had left Bob! Meanwhile, having taken notice of his pets' departure, Bob took it upon himself to return to his house and see they were appropriately scolded for roaming. The family returned to their hotel, but learned of Bob's yet preserved absence. These tidings lay heavy on their hearts, and so the return trip home was a sorrowful ordeal often split by the shrill weeping of the younger children. When they arrived they discovered with joyous reception, Bob waiting for them with an extremely pompous expression on his feline facade. He then took great care thereafter to ensure his pets never left his home unsurveilled.

The Megamind Academy

Megamind Academy. Probably you've never heard of it. That's because the Megamind Academy is my homeschool. I'm the only student. That has its benefits, but it also has its fair share of downsides (i.e. when the techer aka my dad yells it's always at me.) Sometimes school can really suck but most of the time it's fairly average. It's considerably easier since my new philosophy, which is to do my work first, no matter if even I've got the perfect chance to play a video game or watch TV while my dad is gone on an errand or something. I always put my work first because if I slack off all the time during school I will have an extremely hard time finding a job and holding it because I likely won't be qualified and my work ethic will suck. If I spend all my time goofing off in school, chances are I'll probably do it at work too. Then my boss will come in and fire me. All my time will be spent searching for a job and wishing that I paid attention in school. Wishing can't change the past, but I can change the future if I take the time and effort to focus on my schoolwork and stop playing video games.

Basset

We also have a basset hound named Daisy. She is the nicest dog you'll ever meet, and never bites anyone. She is a basset, and is lazy most of the time. Sometimes she'll leave out her food, and Gretchen will eat it. She can be stupid that way. Funny. She always barks at people out the window but only because Gretchen does it. Recently, she has been getting into trouble. She has gone through a whole brand new loaf of bread in about a half hour, and also tore up a roll of paper towels. Dad says she does this while looking for food. One funny thing about Daisy is she will sleep for an hour or so, then will wake up and bark for no apparent reason whatsoever. This sets Gretchen off, to which Daisy responds by barking some more until we have a regular little barkfest going on. She has developed her timing with this to the point where she almost always does this while my dad is on the phone, which drives him absolutely nuts. We rescued her, from a shelter, where g uy hadlet her leg heal from a fracture without setting it. He was MEAN.
