It is something you’re born with, and it can be built or broken as you go through life learning, judging, being judged and many more aspects that can affect ones dignity.<br /><a href="http://www.globaldignity.org/">http://www.globaldignity.org/</a><br /><a href="http://dignityfoundation.com/index.html">http://dignityfoundation.com/index.html</a><br /><a href="http://www.thefreedictionary.com/dignity">http://www.thefreedictionary.com/dignity</a> urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:chicaloco:1444 2006-09-26T16:48:49Z 2006-09-26T16:48:49Z One night i went over to my friends apartment in Pine and a buncha people got together and made dinner together. We ate some really good porkchops and i brought over some corn on the cob from back home. it was really good and we had alot of fun together. Then when we were done with dinner we all took a walk in the woods by "scary mary" and the Vally of Silence. Then we walked threw the cemetery and were looking at all the headstones and stuff. When we were in there we saw Sister Agnes and we talked to her for a while and she told us a lot of really interesting things about CSS and its changes over the years. It was really interesting to know about some of the history of CSS. And now the 6 of us make dinner with each other once a week because we had such a great time that night! urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:chicaloco:1078 2006-09-19T14:42:40Z 2006-09-19T14:42:40Z Live Journal Community:<br />1. Adventures in health Care, <a href="http://community.livejournal.com/healthcare/">http://community.livejournal.com/healthcare/</a><br />This Community looks like it is a place where people who work in, are interested in, or spend much time in a health care environment can post interesting comments and even websites that may be helpful to the others in this community. Also people are free to ask the opinions of others with more experience or interest in the healthcare field. <br />I found this community interesting because I am also interested in the healthcare field: mainly Physical Therapy. I enjoyed reading the posts on this page because I found them to be entertaining, interesting, and even helpful. For example: someone posted a really interesting webpage to look up all your health questions! <br />“Today is a glorious day. I got into the office here and discovered that over the weekend, some HIMS staff had taken all the charts (20,000 or so) and put them into ~400 boxes. And now our warehouse vendor is taking all those boxes away. <br />No more paper charts. <br />Awesome.”<br /> “Dear RN I work with:<br /> I just scolded you for not answering your pager not once, but twice. Once when a patient's family member was on hold and once when a doctor was on hold. Do you realize that they hang up and call back and yell at me because you didn't answer the phone? You could at least let me know you couldn't answer the phone. How many times do I have to tell you this? You are the reason people think hospitals suck. I really kinda hate you. You walk like a duck. How did you ever graduate nursing school? You are one of the most annoying people I think I have ever met. Please stop talking to me. I hate your accent. I am not your friend. We are NOT going camping. I am glad you are quitting. August 5 can't come soon enough.”<br /><br />Blogs:<br /><br />1. Friends of Ishmael, <a href="http://www.myspace.com/spreadishmael">http://www.myspace.com/spreadishmael</a><br />This person has created a page to help spread the word of Daniel Quinn’s book: Ishmael. This blog is closely related to our class because we are studying the book Ishmael and we are studying the online world and dignity- Therefore, this page fits right in!<br />“Quinn mentions in his book that the only way to save our planet from destruction is to change the minds of everyone... to teach 100 and have them each teach 100 more. With Millions of people floating around on Myspace, how many people can you influence? Just by having us on your friends list you are helping to spread the word. My hope is to eventually have thousands of friends online all helping eachother for a common good: To stop the destruction of life on earth. IT IS POSSIBLE.”<br />"If the world is saved, it will be saved by people with changed minds, people with a new vision. It will not be saved by people with old minds and new programs."

I found this blog interesting because I am interested in the Country of Colombia and also because of a blog she wrote. If you click to read her blog: Winter Blue, you will see that this girl must be very talented with words in order to express herself that deep in such a neat way. I like reading peoples blogs when they are written in this manner. I find it so interesting! <br />“If I call... If I take the phone right now... What am I going to say? Would he listen if I can't say a word? Would he be able to listen to my soul?”<br />“Inside, the blood is warm... red is warm, but winter is not. Winter is blue. Does he know? Does he know that I'm waiting for him? Does he know that I'm dead?”<br /><br />3. Am I Insane???, <a href="http://txdevil.livejournal.com/">http://txdevil.livejournal.com/</a><br />I found this blog interesting because it is just some random person talking about everyday type things: Their birthday, their husband, employment, family time, etc… Its kind of like reading a book. <br />“my daughter is bringing home dirty socks that she finds outside.. <br />hrm.. I guess that's better then bringing home an animal..”<br />“My husband loves me enough to knee me in the head.. :P” urn:lj:livejournal.com:atom1:chicaloco:852 2006-09-12T18:40:45Z 2006-09-12T18:40:45Z Id like to write about my quote that i found interesting. <br />This quote is in responce to the tiger pacing madly behinde the bars of his cage and asking himself, "why?" on Page 11: <br />"Nevertheless the question burns like and unquenchable flame in its mind, inflicting a searing pain that does not diminish..." <br />Its a weird reason that i found this interesting, but i guess its mostly because i can almost relate to how it feels, because i often try to over analyze stuff and the questions i come up with usually burn slighly similar to how they are discribed in this quote, because i cant not come up with an answer.

Ole'.<br />I just started school agian after a pretty unevntfull summer. pretty much the main thing i did was work at my local Grocery Store as a cashier. Occasionally i went to the lake and went swimming and fishing and just relaxed and hung out with my brother and sister. I also went to two concerts this summer: Trace Atkins (Country Signer) and The BoDeans (80's Rock band) Im a Sophmore in college now and one of our assignments was to make a Live Journal account. The class is Dignatas, and its not to bad since we get to play on the computer and do this whole blogging thing.
