:D ok I told you my music what's yours?

#3 Nov 04th 2007, 12:49pm

TrueThinker

I already told you. XD

I'm reading a really good book right now.

Twilight Rose2

what is it!?

#5 Nov 18th 2007, 1:27pm

'Specials' by Scott Westerfeld.

It's the third book in the 'Uglies' series. ('Series' was supposed to be a trilogy then he randomly came out with 'Extras', a fourth book.)

Sounds cool, what's it about?

#7 Nov 18th 2007, 1:35pm

Okay, so in the book there are these people who work for an organization called Special Circumstances. These people are called 'Specials'. In the world they exist on (still Earth, just thousands of years from now, future), you are organized into groups by age:

1-11: Littlie

12-16: Ugly

16-?: New Pretty

?-?: Middle Pretty

?-?: Late Pretty

Littlies are just toddlers and young children. Cute, innocent, and sweet. Then, after being a littlie for 11 years, you become a rebbelious and repellent ugly. Uglies love to break rules. Nearly every ugly wants to become a pretty. When an Ugly turns 16, they get to become a 'Pretty'. At age 16, a surgical operation makes you the gorgeous creature called a pretty, who's only job is to have a really great time. The only problem is, being Pretty makes you . . . naive. You are easily distacted, and hate conflict. You are personally programmed to never fight or even ever get angry. The world is fuzzy to a pretty.

Specials are there to make sure the Uglies stay under control and the Pretties stay stupid.

It's a harder job than it sounds.

Specials are pretty too, but cruelly so. They have heightened senses, super-strength, and are extremely fast.

It's an interesting book ;)

#19 Nov 18th 2007, 4:47pm

Good! You'll regret it if you don't; having never taken in the beautiful literary art of 'Uglies'.

Twilight Rose2

Man it's been a while since, I've read or written anything...

#38 Nov 22nd 2007, 7:57pm

TrueThinker

I can understand you not reading anything for a while, but not writing anything? You update nearly every week.

#39 Nov 22nd 2007, 8:00pm

Twilight Rose2

not lately...the block is in full force

Did you see the new chapter of "The Meaning of Life"?

#40 Nov 22nd 2007, 8:02pm

TrueThinker

Uhh . . . I would have gotten the alert but ya know 'not home right now'. And no, I didn't. Or is it the first Tokka kiss chapter?

#41 Nov 22nd 2007, 8:06pm

Twilight Rose2

Nah, I'm just having a big writers block and was wondering what concert Sokka should take Toph to.

Any ideas??

#42 Nov 22nd 2007, 8:09pm

TrueThinker

'Projekt Revolution' already happened in the real world, but that doesn't mean it's over in the Avatar world.

Here are some of the more memorable bands from the Projekt Revolution tour:

Linkin Park

My Chemical Romance

Mindless Self Indulgence

Madina Lake

Taking Back Sunday

HIM

Placebo

... and others. Pretty much your standard punk-rock line-up.

#43 Nov 22nd 2007, 8:14pm

Twilight Rose2

Linkin Park *slaps self on forehead* I forgot, thanks!

#44 Nov 22nd 2007, 8:38pm

TrueThinker

You're welcome. I aim to please.

#45 Nov 22nd 2007, 8:39pm

Twilight Rose2

#46 Nov 22nd 2007, 8:43pm

TrueThinker

Oh goodie.

#47 Nov 22nd 2007, 8:45pm

Twilight Rose2

#48 Nov 22nd 2007, 8:46pm

TrueThinker
