Welcome to the totally terrific planet Totata-Limmigama. Totata is not only a mere planet but a home. The home to the very, shall we say, sweet, Candy Survivors. The Candy Survivors are a different kind of race. They live with different history, beliefs, culture, and most of all... a different look. They all have heads, but not just any normal head, their heads are made out of any type of singly wrapped, circle candy pieces. It can be anywhere from peppermint disks to butterscotch disks. With the wrapper edges being their ears, they are able to hear up to thirty or fifty, if they are lucky, miles away. Their wrapper ears even allow them to fly their way to any crazy place they can imagine. Four eyes you may think is crazy but it …show more content…
On the back of their body right where the legs pop out from there is one piece of licorice which is their tail. This is where they pee out of chocolate nesquick milk. In the inside and right smack dab in the middle of their head is the candy hearts used to tell if other Candy Survivors are lying to them or not. The only vital body part the Candy Survivors need is their eyeball on the back of their head. Without this one eyeball the Candy Survivors could not survive. This one eyeball is the only way to pump Oreo stuffing through their stuffing stream. A stuffing stream is just as it sounds like, a stream of stuffing that runs through the top of their head all the way to the end of their legs keeping them alive all day long. With all this super special sweetness in one planet there has to be a story to how this lovely planet was created. That is exactly what there is. One day on Earth, the government decided obesity was running everybody's lives and they needed to do something about it. They gathered up all the candy and sweets taking it all to the edge of Earth. Then as a group effort they threw all the things off the edge of the earth. The candy and sweets floated off into space but caught some of the human cells and took them with them. After a few days of floating five of the lollipops started to grow bigger and bigger. When they became ginormous they grew eyes and mouths and everything else.
There are survivors all around us, and they all could have faced grave challenges to be standing where they are today. Rainsford, in the "Most Dangerous Game" by Richard Connell, faced intense challenges in a "fight to the death" conflict against one of his most successful supporters, General Zaroff. Lee, from "My escape from North Korea" by Hyeonseo Lee, faced tough challenges while trying to escape the depths of a country that treated her horrendously. Aron Ralston, from "Trapped", a story explaining that Aron himself was hiking alone when the unthinkable happened: Two large, heavy boulders fell on his arm and he had to endure over a hundred painful hours of being trapped in between the two rocks until he did a self-amputation on the arm

At the beginning of the story Candy has little left in his life, and by the plot’s end even that is taken away from him. He has next to no material objects, though he had his dog until it was shot by Carlson.

Of Mice and Men The motif of loneliness hits hard at home as the most prominent motif in the novella Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck. While George and Lennie have strong feelings of loneliness as the main characters, Candy, Curley’s wife and Crooks receive the strike of some of the utmost level of loneliness even as secondary characters in the novella. Missing an arm, coming in at an age higher than everyone else, and not having any relatives to fall back on separates Candy from the rest of the bunch.

Candy, an old man, faces many disheartening moments throughout the novella, including the death of his loved pet dog. Another suffering character is Crooks, a man who receives racial abuse and hatred, in the form of beating and not having the equal rights of sleeping in the bunk house.

As there are multiple cases of loneliness and sadness, each character struggles to talk to each other. Leading them to feel if they are allowed to talk to one-another, if not "why can't I talk to you?" Each character feels that "I never talk to nobody. I get awfully lonely." This gives the sense that they are all in the same
In particular, Candy illustrates the repercussions experienced by an emotionally alone character; one who has no bond of friendship created with any person in the novel. Candy is an older man who has been working on the ranch for an extensive period of time and has always had his old farm dog to keep him company, “the old man squirmed uncomfortably” when asked about keeping the old dog for longer than necessary. He insisted that “[he] had him so long. Had him since he was a pup. [He] herded sheep with him”, that it was inessential for his old farm dog to be put out of his misery.
