What a perfect ending! I finally got around to reading this, Azlin! It's a lot of fun. I think Karen's was my favorite one, until I got to this last one. It may not be many little girls' dreams, but it's Jan's dream! Love it. :)

Aww, little Jan wanted to be Pam! I did not see that coming. This is such a cute series!
Author's Response: I'm glad you didn't see it coming! I wanted it to be a surprise because as soon as I thought of it I was sure everyone else would be able to see it coming from a mile away. Anyway, I'm glad you liked them! Thanks for the reviews.

Adorable, each and every one. And Karen's was so spot-on...she isn't really the nurturing type, so she doesn't want to be a vet. But as she ends up the only "normal" one in Scranton, it had to be like observing a zoo. Heh.
Author's Response:
I'm glad you liked Karen's. That was the last one I wrote, and for some reason I wasn't really sure if it was working, so it's nice to hear that it worked for you. :)
Thanks for the review!

I've enjoyed reading your glimpses into the possible dreams of the female characters on the Office. Any chance you'll be writing a similar series for the male characters Azlin?
Author's Response:
The guys? Hum...maybe. I don't know. I should though, huh? I should write a sequel. Well, now I probably will. But no promises on a time line. ;)
I'm really glad you liked this story though! It was a lot of fun to write!

Ha! I love this take on Jan, especially contrasted with Pam. Nice job!
Author's Response: Yeah, I knew it had to be some little girl's dream to be a receptionist. Even if it wasn't Pam's. ;) Thanks for the review!

aww! i love it! it's never in a million years what you would have imagined. of course i think you did a good job of taking all of the characters out of their normal context and wondering what they wanted as little kids. and i think it's realistic to think that Jan wanted to be the receptionist because obviously there's a part of her that's always super dissatisfied with what she had become, and there's a part of her that wants simplicity (that's why she's in love with michael!) wow i will STOP psychoanalyzing these FICTIONAL characters....
Author's Response: Psychoanalyze away! That's the real joy of fanfiction for me, especially with stories like this one. You have to think about what the characters might have been thinking at a certain moment, and it's just really fun for me to try to get inside their heads and understand their motivations. I'm glad you think I pulled it off with this one. I really wanted to keep them in character, but still have them be little kids and be all hopeful and idealistic like little kids are. Anyway, thanks for the review! I'm glad you liked the story!

Aw, her motherly qualities were evident even then. Great job!
Author's Response: Yay, Phyllis has always been the maternal type I think. She's just so sweet. Thanks for reviewing!
Date: November 06, 2007 12:26 pm Title: Pam
OMG, PAMMMM!! SO CUTE!
"because they fly the highest of all the flying things" Sounds SO much like Pam. Wow.
I really am loving all of these. So cute, and so in-character.
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm so glad you liked this one. This and Kelly were the first ones I wrote and then I just sort of went with it to see if I could do all the others. Anyway, I'm really glad you liked it. :)
Date: November 05, 2007 01:52 pm Title: Karen
Okay, you're slamming these out of the park, and I kinda wish they weren't just 55 words each!
I like how Meredith and Katy are already boy-crazy, and Angela and Phyllis just make me smile. I wish Phyllis would have had some kids! Karen's was really interesting, I can completely see her wanting to be something way cooler than a vet. I'm loving what you're coming up with!
Author's Response: Aw, thanks! I'm so glad you're still enjoying them! And yeah, I kinda wish they weren't just 55 words myself, but I just don't have time to develop them into full-blown stories at the moment. Maybe someday though. Thanks again for the review! You rock my socks! :)
Date: November 04, 2007 09:22 pm Title: Kelly
now THIS is cute. I love it. Keep it coming!! (That's what she said)
Author's Response: Thanks! Apparently cute and fluffy is my specialty lately, so I'm glad you're enjoying it!
Date: November 04, 2007 05:23 pm Title: Angela
I can totally see this. What a cute idea!
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm so glad you liked this chapter. It's one of my personal faves!
Date: November 04, 2007 05:23 pm Title: Angela
I can totally see this. What a cute idea!
Date: November 02, 2007 03:47 pm Title: Angela
I loved Angela's 'No.' This story is so much fun!
Author's Response: Thanks! I think little Angela was one of my favorites to write. I can just see a fierce little Angela with a scowl on her face at the tender age of seven.
Date: November 02, 2007 03:46 pm Title: Meredith
I love how you made Meredith flirty!
Author's Response: The thing is, I think Meredith must've been one of those girls who had multiple crushes/"boyfriends" at like four years old and then she just got addicted to them. I guess that's probably why she never became president.
Date: November 02, 2007 03:45 pm Title: Kelly
A rock star on top of all of that? She certainly was ambitious. ; ) I liked it and thought it seemed like Kelly as a girl. Great job!
Author's Response: Thank you for reviewing! You totally made my day! And I'm really glad you liked little Kelly.
Date: November 02, 2007 10:28 am Title: Angela
hahaa! i espically loved that one! they are all amazing, i can't wait to see more! keep it up!
Author's Response: Thanks! I'm so glad you're enjoying these. They were a lot of fun to write. :)
Date: October 31, 2007 03:25 pm Title: Carol
Verrry interesting take on Carol (and no, I didn't mean that in Michael's 'interesting take on Dorothy' tone)! Good line about the hesitation in her posture. It's especially great because it's about being a ballerina where posture is everything.
I like that she has some unrealized dreams, too, and I wouldn't mind of you totally write her life story. Isn't fanfic great??
Author's Response: I had a lot of fun with these minor characters because I felt like I could do anything I wanted with them. Not sure if I'll take you up on that whole life story thing, but I totally agree, fanfic is the best! Thanks for the review, McGigi!
Date: October 30, 2007 06:54 pm Title: Kelly
Neat premise, Az! I'm very much looking forward to the rest! Tis is very, very Kelly, especially the 'duh!"
Author's Response: I hoped you'd appreciate this one. When I was originally thinking about it, I thought, this seems like something McGigi would do. ;) Oh, and I'm glad you liked this chapter! I hope you enjoy the rest.
Date: October 30, 2007 06:28 pm Title: Kelly
Oh my Lord, this is a brilliant idea for a story!
i love it already. i laughed when kelly said "Duh. So i'll be like, super awesome!"
best line. hilarious (:
Author's Response: Oh, thanks! I'm so glad you liked it. These have been really fun because they remind me of people I used to know in elementary school. Like Kelly reminds me of this girl in my 5th grade class who was obsessed with the color purple. Everything she owned was purple. It was awesome.
Date: October 30, 2007 06:11 pm Title: Kelly
What a clever idea for a series!! This was Kelly to a "T" - can't wait to read more!
Author's Response: Thanks. A series of 55-word chapters is about all I can handle these days, so I'm glad you think it's clever. ;)
