It is late at night in early May. My eyes are trying to stay shut, but I force them open, not wanting to miss a single thing. I sit on a chair in front of the window, waiting for Dad to come back from Earth after a month long of a trip. This has been his third trip so far. From his previous trips, he's brought us pictures of the magnificent planet, and souvenirs as well. I sit still anxiously, wondering what kinds of gifts he will bring me this time. Ships come and go, and I hope Dad will step off one of them. I don't keep my eyes off the ship stop area.
I keep as still as a rock for about three minutes. Eventually I see Dad. He carries two brown paper bags, one in each arm. They look heavy and filled with stuff. I hop off the chair and run up to Dad when he reaches the doorway. My arms wrap around him, and I try not to cry. "Dad, I missed you so much." I'm crying.
"I missed you too, Tanja." Dad says. He sounds different. Maybe it is because I haven't heard his voice in nearly a month. "I brought souvenirs!"
"Yay!" I watch him dig through the bags, pulling out several different items. I see a notebook, something that looks to me like a bag of potato chips, and some other things I don't quite recognize. I smile and look up. "Anything else?"
Dad laughs. "The rest is my clothes and things from home. Now you go to sleep, Tanja. We can talk about Earth in the morning."
"Okay, good night." I move myself up the stairs, to my room.
I guess now would be an okay time to introduce myself. I am Tanay Jacey Quimzo. Everyone in school calls me Tanja for short. I am not sure why they wouldn't just call me Tanay instead. It's only a few letters difference. It's not like it matters, does it?
I live on the planet Eporter. It is located very far from Earth, the most populated planet out of all the other planets. After all, it is where humans started.
Eporter is not as amazing as an Earthling (That's what the boys at school call them) would think it is. It is dull, with no creativity whatsoever. The sky is always dark, we don't have unlimited boundaries, and the ground is rocky and covered with volcanos that always erupt. It's like I'm trapped in a prison, except it's not a prison. Eporter was discovered when my grandparents were about teenagers. Eyden Porter, the man's name was. He named the planet after himself. The bad thing was, when my grandparents were married, they became close friends with Mr. Porter, so they volunteered to help him make Eporter into more of a success. They moved here, and have been living here ever since. So, my parents, as well as me, have been living on Eporter our entire lives. Because of this, nothing but jealously is what I have always felt. I always dreamed about Earth, wondering what it would be like to live there. Grass, trees, animals, a blue sky. Who could ever had thought up of something as amazing as a blue sky? Someone amazing, I hope. Blue is my favorite color. I have always wished to look up into the sky and see my favorite color shining down on me. But when I look up while on Eporter, all I see is total darkness. Black resembles nothing but sadness and lack of creativity.
I wouldn't ever invite anyone to Eporter. The laws are crazy and just plain horrid. Mirrors are illegal. Any form of reflection is illegal. I have never seen what I look like. No, not once. The only thing I am aware of is my hair. It's very dark brown, almost black, wavy, and to my shoulders. I wish I could see my eyes. My parents always tell me it is forbidden to speak of appearances. That always made me want to cry.

why are the paragraphs so huge

i hate it when it's like that

seriously

btw, the emotion sounds cheap

you must be like 35 before you can write emotion that sounds "real" and not fabricated emotion by a young author

This thread is supposed to be a jerk.


Obviously a 47-yr-old wouldn't write about an emo teenage girl living on another planet in the far future.
