There are many people in the world that have it worse than you, so shut it and be grateful, punk"</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Do any of you have friends or acquaintances who don't appreciate what they have?</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I was one of those people, but I had to be punched in the face to realize that I have everything.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

</div><div style="text-align: center;">I'm always grateful for having the life that I do now.</div><div style="text-align: center;">The Lord continually blesses me with so many things even though I really don't deserve it.</div><div style="text-align: center;">It breaks my heart to know that there are so many people suffering in this world, </div><div style="text-align: center;">but it motivates me to DO SOMETHING!</div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />

<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">How are ya? :D</span><br />
<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;">It feels so good to be able to blog again! I've been SUPER DUPER busy with lots of things and I was able to enjoy a week of complete laziness. I want to share lots of things but I don't even know where to start! I do want to share a tag that I recently saw in a YouTube video.</span><br />

But I'm glad to say that they're FINALLY OVER!!!<br />
I hate how they are LONG and BORING! The only reason I go is to support my fellow friends, but you have to wait for the VERY LONG AND BORING speeches in the beginning and for your friend's name to be called out, only to cheer for 10 seconds or less. Seriously..that's ridiculous.<br />
<br />
<br />
But I have to say, the best one so far was the Air Force Academy graduation.<br />
My friends and I are so blessed to have a brother in the Air Force :]<br />
He graduated as a distinguished student which is equivalent to one of the three Latin honors.<br />
Only 10% of the graduates received the awards and there were a total of 1020 something graduates.<br />

President Obama was supposed to be at his graduation, but I guess his schedule changed so the President will be coming next year, which sucks. The Secretary of the Air Force came instead and he looked so tired towards the end because he had to salute and shake hands of ALL the graduates!! I would have died after 20 haha<br />

We were all looking forward to the air show and hoping that it wouldn't rain. It's been raining like crazy here! Three days of rain than a day or two of sunshine then another three days of rain -___- Don't get me wrong, I LOVE the rain but seriously..there has to be a limit.<br />
<br />
But by God's grace, we were able to see it!! :D<br />
After the graduates said their oath, they threw their hats in the air and the planes flew above us..AWESOME!!<br />

<br />
Other than that the graduation lasted about 4 hours -___-<br />
but I guess it was worth it haha<br />
<br />
<br />
and congratulations to all the graduates this year!!<br />

High gloss superior shine.<br /><br />The company website also claims that the product has the following three benefits: Double UV filters shield manicure from fading and discoloration, helps resist chipping, salon and dermatologist tested.<br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Application Tips:</span> After applying your nail polish, wait two minutes, then apply one coat of top coat and will be dry to the touch within 30 seconds.<br />(source: sallyhansen.com)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">My Two Cents</span><br />I usually don’t wait ten days to take off my nail polish, but I noticed that the polish stayed on a bit longer than when I use Seche Vite. I did see the occasional cracks appearing around the 7th day instead of the usual 5th. The color didn't fade which is a definite plus. Two minutes seems to be a long time to wait to apply top coat, but it's going to be time to apply the top coat any way by the time you're done painting all of you nails. Overall, this is a great dupe to the Seche Vite Top Coat. It works the same and it's cheaper, which I really like.(<span style="font-style:italic;">NOTE: My thoughts and opinions may be different to yours</span>)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Price:</span> $5.00 at Wal-Mart (prices may vary depending on the store and location)<br /><br /><br /><br />Have any of you tried this before?<br />What do you think about this product?gracehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12025875975789307208noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148488179591339779.post-34299463320249485312011-04-16T10:35:00.018-06:002011-04-27T21:05:50.433-06:00Cooking with Grace #1(Vegetarians Beware!!)<br /><br />I made this a few weeks ago and I wanted to show you how to cook Fried Pork Cutlet aka Ton Katsu aka 돈까스 (don kka seh)<br />It’s VERY simple and easy to make.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Things you need:</span><br />Pork cutlet sliced (thin) – can get them anywhere…I usually get them at Super Wal-Mart<br />Salt and Pepper<br />Bread Crumbs…I recommend using Korean or Japanese ones, but that’s because those are the only ones I used. But bread crumbs are bread crumbs (.____.)<br />Eggs, whisked (I usually start with two eggs)<br />Flour<br />Pork Cutlet Sauce<br />Frying oil<br />Knife<br />Pounder thingy…cooking hammer? I really don’t know what it’s called hehe<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Directions:</span><br />1. Cut the side with the fat to prevent the fat to gather together and “crinkle” the meat when cooked<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9r0Bkw9R1Lo/TbjVwIrglQI/AAAAAAAAAoo/hPdnZSiZefg/s1600/003.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-9r0Bkw9R1Lo/TbjVwIrglQI/AAAAAAAAAoo/hPdnZSiZefg/s320/003.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600461159575622914" /></a><br /><br />2. Pound both sides of the cutlet with the hammer until it is thinner than what you started with<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rShJ8nrvtP8/TbjWOoQIOTI/AAAAAAAAApA/0pClZKsE6XU/s1600/002.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-rShJ8nrvtP8/TbjWOoQIOTI/AAAAAAAAApA/0pClZKsE6XU/s320/002.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600461683446790450" /></a><br /><br />3. Season salt and pepper or whatever seasoning you like. I used garlic salt.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Zyzs1GxSSVY/TbjWf_AHFQI/AAAAAAAAApI/ZaJhLMC71FI/s1600/007.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Zyzs1GxSSVY/TbjWf_AHFQI/AAAAAAAAApI/ZaJhLMC71FI/s320/007.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600461981611398402" /></a><br /><br />4. Cover both sides with flour.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uJaBHxPYj_s/TbjWrEaxWPI/AAAAAAAAApQ/1dYgcJRYM5Q/s1600/009.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-uJaBHxPYj_s/TbjWrEaxWPI/AAAAAAAAApQ/1dYgcJRYM5Q/s320/009.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600462172043958514" /></a><br /><br />5. Cover both sides of the meat with the eggs. Make sure it’s completely covered so the bread crumbs will stick to the meat.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-dMcRx03wJkQ/TbjXyPhj1NI/AAAAAAAAApo/F2CEdtQDgp0/s1600/010.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-dMcRx03wJkQ/TbjXyPhj1NI/AAAAAAAAApo/F2CEdtQDgp0/s320/010.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600463394795934930" /></a><br /><br />6. Cover both sides with the bread crumbs. I do this twice so there’s a lot of bread crumbs on it.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QbpTEmb1VlM/TbjXyceIzsI/AAAAAAAAApw/baFI-tRYQ1o/s1600/011.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-QbpTEmb1VlM/TbjXyceIzsI/AAAAAAAAApw/baFI-tRYQ1o/s320/011.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600463398271241922" /></a><br /><br />7. Fry in oil until both sides are golden brown.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EiMCKTOoVco/TbjYKiNpvyI/AAAAAAAAAp4/ZAQjvfZ9VcI/s1600/014.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-EiMCKTOoVco/TbjYKiNpvyI/AAAAAAAAAp4/ZAQjvfZ9VcI/s320/014.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600463812129570594" /></a><br /><br />8. Set it aside on a paper towel to get rid of excess oil.<br /><br />9. Slice and serve with rice, cabbage salad (thinly sliced cabbage with dressing), and pork cutlet sauce. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ed-wOnrseWM/TbjXEYvv17I/AAAAAAAAApY/_OWdWS6tcS0/s1600/017.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-ed-wOnrseWM/TbjXEYvv17I/AAAAAAAAApY/_OWdWS6tcS0/s320/017.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600462606997378994" /></a><br /><br />My favorite is called Bulldog and it looks something like this. <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5X5IIa95tfg/TbjXO4HiLPI/AAAAAAAAApg/4_ZXaRBeI5c/s1600/019.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 240px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-5X5IIa95tfg/TbjXO4HiLPI/AAAAAAAAApg/4_ZXaRBeI5c/s320/019.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5600462787217337586" /></a><br /><br /><br />Another favorite of mine is curry cutlet…Japanese style!<br /><br />I hope you guys try it and let me know how it turns out for you!<br />Don’t forget your kimchi!!

(03/31/11-04/03/11)Hi friends! <br /><br />Six of my fellow friends went on a road trip to Texas.<br />We left last Thursday at 11PM so that we could get there around noon, so we left after this service/rally at a church. <br />Our first stop was Colorado Springs because one of our friends goes to school there. We had my mom's GPS and put in the destination, but for some reason it gave us the longer route to Texas. It took us 2-3 hours longer to get there! -___-<br />One of our drivers drove 9 HOURS!! That's ridiculous! But luckily the car that we rented had cruise control haha.<br /><br />Luckily, we left at night so we didn't have to look at NOTHING.<br />The only things you see are <br />grass<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kFxdO2qthNA/TZ6Lt7vK0SI/AAAAAAAAAlI/JIEY4SawSXc/s1600/039.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-kFxdO2qthNA/TZ6Lt7vK0SI/AAAAAAAAAlI/JIEY4SawSXc/s320/039.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593061408486641954" /></a><br /><br />cows<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-96p-7yvrr3M/TZ6L6NwSScI/AAAAAAAAAlQ/AeKelT-V0es/s1600/040.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-96p-7yvrr3M/TZ6L6NwSScI/AAAAAAAAAlQ/AeKelT-V0es/s320/040.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593061619481594306" /></a><br /><br />and clouds<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xm6sAPIh7Zw/TZ6MEjOEojI/AAAAAAAAAlY/_wIZeQ7lbAk/s1600/034.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-xm6sAPIh7Zw/TZ6MEjOEojI/AAAAAAAAAlY/_wIZeQ7lbAk/s320/034.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593061797042364978" /></a><br /><br />and trees<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CTS1RqHZzxY/TZ6MMg7My0I/AAAAAAAAAlg/60IpN94NuKw/s1600/025.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-CTS1RqHZzxY/TZ6MMg7My0I/AAAAAAAAAlg/60IpN94NuKw/s320/025.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593061933865290562" /></a><br /><br />Once you hit Dallas, you see lots of highways<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7nH-Q3e0b80/TZ6OcmeWAUI/AAAAAAAAAmo/DElmiuzyW7I/s1600/052.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-7nH-Q3e0b80/TZ6OcmeWAUI/AAAAAAAAAmo/DElmiuzyW7I/s320/052.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593064409256034626" /></a><br /><br />and traffic lights that are sideways!! wwhhhaaattt???? <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SSMigtUytYo/TZ6OS6KsCTI/AAAAAAAAAmg/2Z47T4NJwXA/s1600/062.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-SSMigtUytYo/TZ6OS6KsCTI/AAAAAAAAAmg/2Z47T4NJwXA/s320/062.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593064242743609650" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3uwqJydZeJU/TZ6OSk1EJnI/AAAAAAAAAmY/JVTBu7ecO5M/s1600/061.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-3uwqJydZeJU/TZ6OSk1EJnI/AAAAAAAAAmY/JVTBu7ecO5M/s320/061.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593064237015770738" /></a><br /><br />I've seen them in Korea and Japan before but not in the states..<br /><br />We arrived around 2 in Dallas and went to a Korea Town but it was so ghetto haha Right when I got out of the car it was HOT AND HUMID! <br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-20CuerqaIBU/TZ6MdXBEN6I/AAAAAAAAAlw/cm133xGx_uE/s1600/056.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-20CuerqaIBU/TZ6MdXBEN6I/AAAAAAAAAlw/cm133xGx_uE/s320/056.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593062223263315874" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KKjacAgkMBw/TZ6McG9FM2I/AAAAAAAAAlo/oPstaXII4ZM/s1600/055.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-KKjacAgkMBw/TZ6McG9FM2I/AAAAAAAAAlo/oPstaXII4ZM/s320/055.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593062201771766626" /></a><br /><br /><br />We met Boss' (5 of us are teachers/leaders at church and one is our church EM director so we call her Boss haha) friend that she met at GLDI (Global Leadership Development Institute).

It was very tender and expensive haha..I thought meat would be cheap in Texas...<br /><br />I had a blushing moment at the restaurant. <br />I was walking up the stairs to the doors and I held the door open for the other people to get out and one of the guys said "Thanks sweetheart" in a southern accent..EEEEKKKKK!!!! :D LOL It was SO nice of him to say that! I think the only place where you'll hear that is in the south. Seriously, southern hospitality is GREAT! It would be nice to have some of that everywhere else, but I guess that's what makes them special hehe<br /><br />We left at 9PM on Saturday to get to church on time for service at 9:30AM on Sunday.<br />Surprisingly, we arrived an hour early than expected..but we took the shorter way that we were supposed to take and Boss drove like 100 mph the second half of the way haha<br /><br />Our last picture together in Texas<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-llWhjLn5QgI/TZ6RUVBXDVI/AAAAAAAAAnA/U594l-4hpMo/s1600/110.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 240px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-llWhjLn5QgI/TZ6RUVBXDVI/AAAAAAAAAnA/U594l-4hpMo/s320/110.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5593067565666995538" /></a><br /><br /><br />Sorry for the LOOOONNNNGGG post...I think this is the longest yet! hehe ^^;;<br />I hoped you guys liked <br />and I'll see you in my next post!<br /><br /><br />God Bless! <3gracehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12025875975789307208noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148488179591339779.post-90972721167414101582011-03-30T18:54:00.005-06:002011-03-30T19:19:19.525-06:00what would you do?Just a while ago, I was driving home from the light rail (our version of the subway) station. I wanted to get onto the left lane so I had my blinker on for a good amount of time. I looked and saw that I had room left for my car to get in through and I thought that the guy behind me was going to let me in..but guess what?<br /><br />The effin DOUCHE BAG started to speed up and tailed me until he realized what was going on so he pushed on his brakes, honks at me, and gives me the finger. ARE YOU SERIOUS YOU BIG BLIND DUMB***?!??!?! I had my blinker on long enough for him and all the other cars to see!! And he has the guts to honk at me and give me the dang finger..I bet you anything that he thinks Asians are bad drivers and shouldn't be on the streets. I mean, I won't lie...we're not the best, but NO ONE IS GOOD AT DRIVING!!!. Maybe pros but that's about it...Why can't things be closer together so people can walk and get some exercise?!?!?! -___-<br /><br />Oh how I wish I could have gotten out of the car and broken his little finger..not only that but he pulled up to me and gave it to me AGAIN and mouthed the words! As if once isn't enough. VERY MATURE YOU NASTY WITH AN UGLY FACE!! <br />You know what would have been even better?<br />If I had a bat in my car. Seriously..a very nice baseball bat. <br /><br />I was and still am pissed off to the MAX! I have his license plate number, but I don't think anyone can do anything about it anyways..and I HATE letting things go, even though I have to...eff! I seriously hate people like that..I mean what's the point of driving fast? Are you that INSECURE that you MUST show off to other people? Maybe he was rushing, but no one told him to do things late. <br /><br /><br />I have so many bad things to happen to him in my mind right now..but it's not going to do me any good. But I really do want to crush him mentally...<br />but why does my name have to be Grace at times like this?! haha I guess I'm being told to practice the meaning of grace...dang haha<br /><br /><br /><br />What would you have done?<br />Has anything like this happen to you before?<br /><br />I'm sorry for the rant and the language.<br />and this really feels like dejavu...woah<br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Peace, Love, Asia<br />God Bless! <3gracehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12025875975789307208noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1148488179591339779.post-7255858593044341122011-03-16T23:31:00.012-06:002011-03-17T00:01:07.701-06:00Upcoming OPI CollectionsFirst Shrek, then Burlesque, and now <span style="font-weight: bold;">Pirates of the Caribbean</span>!<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rDrcuUes78w/TYGd1NkPZ1I/AAAAAAAAAjo/PXFdB55AnRE/s1600/OPI-Pirates1.png"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 265px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-rDrcuUes78w/TYGd1NkPZ1I/AAAAAAAAAjo/PXFdB55AnRE/s320/OPI-Pirates1.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5584918550416418642" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Company’s Description<br /><br /><span style="font-style:italic;">“OPI is thrilled to celebrate the latest film in this beloved series. ‘The Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides’ lacquers were inspired by a world filled with mythical mermaids, gleaming treasure and high-seas adventure.

Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">3) Nothing</span><br />This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing end in fine.<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">4)Go Ahead</span><br />This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">5)Loud Sigh</span><br />This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing (refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing)<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">6)That's Okay</span><br />This is on of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. That's okay means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">7)Thanks</span><br />A woman is thanking you, do not question or faint. Just say you're welcome (I want to add in a clause here - this is true unless she says 'Thanks a lot' - that is PURE sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'you're welcome'. That will bring on a 'whatever')<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">8)Whatever</span><br />Is a woman's way of saying 'F- YOU'<br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">9)Don't worry about it, I got it</span><br />Another dangerous statment meaning that this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is not doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?". For the woman's response refer to #3<br /><br />(source: I don't remember where I got this..)<br /><br /><br />So what do you guys think?<br />True?

This momentous decree came as a great beacon light of hope to millions of Negro slaves, who had been seared in the flames of withering injustice. It came as a joyous daybreak to end the long night of captivity. But one hundred years later, we must face the tragic fact that the Negro is still not free. One hundred years later, the life of the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination.<br /><br />One hundred years later, the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. One hundred years later, the Negro is still languishing in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land. So we have come here today to dramatize an appalling condition.<br /><br />In a sense we have come to our nation's Capital to cash a check. When the architects of our republic wrote the magnificent words of the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence, they were signing a promissory note to which every American was to fall heir.<br /><br />This note was a promise that all men would be guaranteed the inalienable rights of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.<br /><br />It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro a bad check, a check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."<br /><br />But we refuse to believe that the bank of justice is bankrupt. We refuse to believe that there are insufficient funds in the great vaults of opportunity of this nation. So we have come to cash this check, a check that will give us upon demand the riches of freedom and the security of justice.<br /><br />We have also come to this hallowed spot to remind America of the fierce urgency of Now. This is no time to engage in the luxury of cooling off or to take the tranquilizing drug of gradualism.<br /><br />Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy.<br /><br />Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice.<br /><br />Now is the time to open the doors of opportunity to all God's children.<br /><br />Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood.<br /><br />It would be fatal for the nation to overlook the urgency of the moment and to underestimate the determination of the Negro. This sweltering summer of the Negro's legitimate discontent will not pass until there is an invigorating autumn of freedom and equality. Nineteen sixty-three is not an end but a beginning. Those who hope that the Negro needed to blow off steam and will now be content will have a rude awakening if the nation returns to business as usual.<br /><br />There will be neither rest nor tranquility in America until the Negro is granted his citizenship rights. The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges.<br /><br />But there is something that I must say to my people who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice. In the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrong deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred. We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force. The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom. We cannot walk alone.<br /><br />And as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall march ahead. We cannot turn back. There are those who are asking the devotees of civil rights, "When will you be satisfied?" We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the victim of the unspeakable horrors of police brutality. We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy with the fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels of the highways and the hotels of the cities.<br /><br />We cannot be satisfied as long as the Negro's basic mobility is from a smaller ghetto to a larger one.<br /><br />We cannot be satisfied as long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote, and a Negro in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote.<br /><br />No, no we are not satisfied and we will not be satisfied until justice rolls down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.<br /><br />I am not unmindful that some of you have come here out of great trials and tribulations. Some of you have come fresh from narrow jail cells. Some of you have come from areas where your quest for freedom left you battered by storms of persecutions and staggered by the winds of police brutality. You have been the veterans of creative suffering. Continue to work with the faith that unearned suffering is redemptive.<br /><br />Go back to Mississippi, go back to Alabama, go back to South Carolina, go back to Georgia, go back to Louisiana, go back to the slums and ghettos of our modern cities, knowing that somehow this situation can and will be changed.<br /><br />Let us not wallow in the valley of despair. I say to you today, my friends, that in spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still have a dream.<br /><br />It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream.<br /><br />I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed. "We hold these truths to be self-evident that all men are created equal."<br /><br />I have a dream that one day out on the red hills of Georgia the sons of former slaves and the sons of former slaveowners will be able to sit down together at the table of brotherhood.<br /><br />I have a dream that one day even the state of Mississippi, a desert state sweltering with the heat and injustice of oppression, will be transformed into an oasis of freedom and justice.<br /><br />I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.<br /><br />I have a dream today.<br /><br />I have a dream that one day the state of Alabama, whose governor's lips are presently dripping with the words of interposition and nullification, will be transformed into a situation where little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls and walk together as sisters and brothers.<br /><br />I have a dream today.<br /><br />I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plains and the crooked places will be made straight and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed and all flesh shall see it together.<br /><br />This is our hope. This is the faith with which I return to the South. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope.<br /><br />With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood.<br /><br />With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.<br /><br />This will be the day when all of God's children will be able to sing with new meaning "My country 'tis of thee, sweet land of liberty, of thee I sing. Land where my fathers died, land of the Pilgrim's pride, from every mountainside, let freedom ring!"<br /><br />And if America is to be a great nation, this must become true. So let freedom ring from the prodigious hilltops of New Hampshire. Let freedom ring from the mighty mountains of New York.<br /><br />Let freedom ring from the heightening Alleghenies of Pennsylvania.<br /><br />Let freedom ring from the snow-capped Rockies of Colorado.<br /><br />Let freedom ring from the curvaceous peaks of California.<br /><br />But not only that, let freedom, ring from Stone Mountain of Georgia.<br /><br />Let freedom ring from Lookout Mountain of Tennessee.<br /><br />Let freedom ring from every hill and molehill of Mississippi. From every mountainside, let freedom ring.<br /><br />When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, "Free at last, free at last. Thank God Almighty, we are free at last." <br /><br />(source: http://teachingamericanhistory.org/library/index.asp?document=40)<br /><br />-----------------------------------------------------------------<br /><br />It's very sad how discrimination is still present in this world today because of ignorance. The world needs great leaders like Martin Luther King Jr...great change can come from anyone. Even doing the smallest thing for someone can make a HUGE difference.<br /><br />What do you think?<br /><br />Happy belated MLK day! <br />God Bless :]gracehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12025875975789307208noreply@blogger.com2
