How’s My Novel So Far?


So I’m writing a book called Samantha’s Asylum. Tell me what you think.
I was walking home from school with the hot sun beating down on my neck. Thank God there was only one more day of school until summer vacation. Then Diana and I could go to the creek and swim together. “Samantha!” Momma called from the front porch. I picked up my speed along the beautiful path in the woods and came upon our home. It was wooden with a porch that held three rocking chairs.
I ran up to the porch, all smiles. “Momma, Diana wasn’t in school today.” I said after hugging her. Momma nodded and gazed at the horizon.
“You knew?”
“Yes.”
“How?”
“Mrs. Land, Diana’s mother, talked to me at the market today.” Momma was frowning and her blue eyes were sad. She put a hand on my shoulder and squeezed warmly.
“She had some very unfortunate news for me.”
‘What? Is Diana sick?”
“I’m afraid this morning she was.”
“This morning? What do you mean?”
“Diana went down by the creek for some fresh air. She waded through the water until her foot got caught in a root. She fell and she couldn’t get back up. Don’t worry, she’s safe in the Lord’s arms.” Momma said. I stared at her, not wanting to believe what I had just heard. But the sadness in her eyes was too real. I ran inside and pounded up the stairs.
“Samantha!” Momma called, hurrying up the steps. I opened my door and dropped my things on the ground. Momma came in and pulled me close. I started to cry. She put her arms around me and stroked my hair. I started to scream then. When we heard Papa’s wagon approaching the house, Momma ran down the stairs crying “Eric, Eric!”
OK So I know it’s not much, but alot more happens. she tries to kill herelf and her parents send her to an asylum. there she finds out secrets and stuff.

Who Is Wolverine Trading?


I recently applied for an internship with TransMarket Group. They referred me to their subsidiary Aardvark Trading for an interview. It has been about three weeks since the interview and today I received an email from Wolverine Trading saying that I had been rejected.
Who is Wolverine Trading? I don’t have any recollection of hearing that name, are they affiliated with either TMG or Aardvark Trading?
Thanks for your help.

What Do You Think Of The “tea Party” And “progressives” Agreeing On Getting Rid Of The Patriot Act?


This is fascinating to me.
I also read a poll on Politico today (obviously not scientific) where 56% of respondents supported repealing the Patriot Act by not reauthorizing it.http://www.csmonitor.com/USA/Elections/T…
Many liberals tag the tea party movement as nativist, potentially racist, and out of step with progressive ideals. But some found themselves giving a nod of approval to tea-party-affiliated members of Congress who voted Tuesday to nix parts of the Patriot Act on grounds that they let the government intrude too much on individual privacy in the name of national security.
“House blocks renewal of Patriot Act. Some of these tea party guys aren’t insane after all,” tweeted Armon Dadgar, a resident of Kirkland, Wash.
Rep. Ron Paul of Texas and newcomer Rep. Raúl Labrador of Idaho were among eight in the Tea Party Caucus to vote against extending certain surveillance measures contained in the Patriot Act, joining with 18 other Republicans and most House Democrats to prevent their reauthorization – at least for now. Liberal Democratic lawmakers, in particular, have long derided parts of the Patriot Act as sacrificing civil liberties.

Will I Be Punished For Lying To Get A Temple Recommend?


So i went to get my temple recommend today. and he asked me a couple questions. As he went over them i started to realize that i dont believe in most of the things he said.
Im the laurels president so i need to go to the temple….
i said yes or no at the right times to all of them except for paying tithing because in my opinion… paying tithing isnt something that i agree withn ( i feel that all the money just goes to making more temples) (i live in utah)
The questions i lied about
Do you have a testimony of the Atonement of Christ and of His role as Savior and Redeemer?
Do you sustain the President of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints as the Prophet, Seer, and Revelator and as the only person on the earth who possesses and is authorized to exercise all priesthood keys? Do you sustain members of the First Presidency and the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles as prophets, seers, and revelators? Do you sustain the other General Authorities and local authorities of the Church?
Are you a full-tithe payer? (i almost didnt get in for that question) ( only because i have no money or dont earn money at all)
Have there been any sins or misdeeds in your life that should have been resolved with priesthood authorities but have not been?
Do you have a testimony of the restoration of the gospel in these the latter days?
Do you have faith in and a testimony of God the Eternal Father, His Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Ghost?
Do you support, affiliate with, or agree with any group or individual whose teachings or practices are contrary to or oppose those accepted by the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints?
So am i going to… mormon hell for this?
is this something terrible?

If One Major Problem In The World Was Just Totally Eliminated, Would You Still Be Happy If At The Same (contd)?


If one major problem in the world was just totally eliminated, would you still be happy if at the same time you lost your job…because it was no longer needed?
Yesterday in class one of my teachers (a nurse) commented that she likes the cardiovascular system because in today’s world it gives nurses a lot of work–a lot of nurses are employed due to heart problems. This got me thinking…
What if a miracle happened over night where human beings could cure themselves and this meant all of the doctors, nurses, hospital staff, everyone working in the health care setting became unemployed? Would you still want that ability in human beings? Wouldn’t it be being selfish to want humans to still be sick just so people in the health care sector of the economy had jobs? I appreciate the thought and what she meant, but it got me curious and I just want to hear some personal views and opinions from you guys.
What about police, FBI, and all law enforcement workers…would you guys like it or dislike it if tomorrow morning we all miraculously started obeying the law? Please imagine the scenario and state if you would be for or against it?
Take whatever job you have…grocery store/food industry/food safety, etc. (pretend we can get our energy from the sun…just pretend if you will), transportation (lol pretend we can teleport), ETC etc.
Now ask yourself if you truly want that problem/need/niche your job fills….ask yourself if you want that problem solved if it means you have to give up the piece of safety (income) it offers you. Be creative and use your imagination.
Bonus Q: what would you decide to do all day with your time if you weren’t spending it at work all day? If the world had none of those problems…how would you fill your day if you were free to do anything you pleased (because by this time in the imagined scenario there are no problems and no needs to be fulfilled…just pretend! lol) ? Wouldn’t it kind of be like heaven? lol at least what I imagine heaven to be like.
My main question is if you would want the need for your job eliminated even if it meant you would have to be unemployed and uncertain of what your future holds…but you and all of humanity could enjoy and share the benefit of not having that problem in the world today. Oh and please state what line of work you do.
Thanks 🙂
