MLK

Martin Luther King Jr. Essay

By: Zachary D. Athans

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once gave the famous speech entitled, “I have a dream.” In this speech, he talked about his dream of racial equality. We all need to have dreams and desires to accomplish. The Lord commands us to do this by saying that we “should be anxiously engaged in a good cause.”

If posed the question if time and money were not an object to what would I do with my life, I know exactly what I would do with my life. The first thing I would do is take care of my family. I would find a place to settle and raise my family. This place would be preferably in North Carolina, but it really doesn’t matter as long as we are close to family. I want to stay in one place for the rest of my life.

I think I would want to pursue education at all times. I would get my PhD. in history. I would want to teach either part-time or full-time at a local community college. I would always pursue further my education in all aspects of knowledge. I would want many, many degrees in vary fields.

I would travel all over the world. I want to see and learn about many cultures all over the world. I would want to be heavily involved in charity work worldwide. I would meet many world leaders to understand what we could do to better their country and people.

I would do all that I could to better the world around me with unlimited resources.

Twi Freaking Light

What a blessed day...Twilight the movie came out.

I was there with all the other 3000 girls in Idaho Falls for the Midnight showing...as if ...gag me

Sorry for all those who love the books. I dont!!!! I know have not read the books but the following are my thoughts to explain why i HATE TWILIGHT

1)everyone is obessed with them. Come on...there are more imporant things to do like...watch smallville...read the scriptures...GO ON DATES...do homework...write missionaries...etc.
2)it gives females a worped idea of the "perfect man"
Women there are plenty of Edwards and Jacobs to go around...I promise...wait who needs an Edward or Jacob...they have got nothing on me

the following is a quote i get from a girls facebook status
"destined to be miserable...being that edward cullen does not actually exist"

Guys like Edward exist I promise

Look around and find them

Sorry if this is hateful

These are my feelings

Pre-Halloween Plans

So, I was kinda having a little hard time deciding on what to be for this demonic holiday known as "Halloween"

My initial ideas was to be the Joker (the 2008 verision, Christopher Nolan, The Dark Knight [Heath Ledger {R.I.P.}] not the 1989 version, Tim Burton, Batman [Jack Nicholson {still living}])
But after some thought, lack of trying to find a purple suit, and after watching the most recent episode of The Office when three people all dressed up as The Joker.

So, my next ideas were:
1) Jim from The Office
2) Dwight from the Office
3) Gollum (loin cloth and all)
______________________________

So, The final decision is/was Dwight

The picture is just a little preview of kinda what I will try to look like (if you Watch The Office you will understand this picture)

So, Ta

Look for Pics coming soon
