The Biography of Jeremy White

If you were to look at Jeremy White you most likely then not see a white collar worker who seems to do everything by the book but people aren’t always as two dimensional as they may initially seem. If you looked at him you wouldn’t know that he is a self proclaimed music lover and pours his heart and soul into his drumming. You also wouldn’t know that he is a “mommas boy” or about his extremely severe fear of sharks.

Having a modest disposition, White credits his musical achievements to his best friend and neighbor. Jeremy’s best friend was a year older then him and at the age of eight he was allowed to go attend music class and play the drums which greatly influence White’s desire to play. As Whites musical talent developed he joined a band in high school and after had the opportunity to experience one of his other loves, traveiling after joining “Revolution Smile” a band that had the chance to tour in Japan. White shortly left the music industry because of the callous and uncaring people that were often hard to avoid and pursued a career a career in financial planning.

White say he chose to pursue financial planning because he found great joy in helping other thanks to his mom whom he strives to imitate. He stated “My mom is the most caring and considerate person I know. She is always more focused on other peoples needs rather then her own.”

When asked were he thinks hell be in ten years White replied r, “Hawaii maybe I’ll still live in San Diego, I don’t really know.” Theirs no way to be sure with his strong sense of adventure and love of trying new things but he knows hell be happy doing whatever it may be.


The United States Involvement In North Korea


I recently watched a documentary titled “Escaping North Korea”. This documentary is about North Korean refugees who are trying o escape the horrible conditions of North Korea and escape to South Korea or China in hopes of a better life. Even though the South Korean Government states that if any North Korean can get there they will be recognized as South Korean, North Koreans are still not fully accepted and must deal with the prejudices of the South Korean people. Only a handful of North Korean refugees live in the United States and I’m really hurt by the fact the United States has the resources to help these people but we haven’t because of previous conflicts that have nothing to do with the North Korean people themselves but t rather there mistrust in the North Korean government. If the condition of North Korea is going to change then United States involvement is undoubtedly necessary.

Barter and Rasfir



Once upon a time their was a little Indian boy named Rasfir. Rasfir would write stories about an adventurous boy and had his trusty dog sidekick Barter. This boy went to an amazing places to amazing places that Rasfir had only read about in books. The boy went to Egypt to uncover the of the missing mummy.he went to Saudi Arabia to find the 1,000 year old missing mummy, he went to New York to uncover the mystery of Lady Liberties missing torch. Barter the Wonder Dog was no ordinary dog, he had the power of flight but only if the person riding him was wearing a magical orange turban. One night Rasfir had just finished his latest story The Infamous Ghost of the Eiffel Tower. He took off his stained and tattered clothing and laid the cold wet ground with all the other children that live din the orphanage. Slowly he began to drift into a deep sleep. Shortly he felt something wet on his hand and became frightened he jumped up and as his eyes adjusted to the dark he saw a dog standing before him. Rasir started to scream but he didn't want to wake up the evil orphanage director or the other children so he just stood there and stared at the dog and the dog stared back. Rasfir thought that it couldn't be Barter because Barter was just a character in his stories:he thought that maybe he was just a stray that somehow wondered into the orphange but how could a dog get through a locked door? There was no answer but he still didn't believe that this dog cold possibly be Barter. After 10 seconds of the staring game the dog began to walk towards Rasfir. He beacme alarmed and started to move back but stopped when the dog dropped an item that he had firmly gripped in his mouth. He walked closer to the object and saw that it was orange. Rasfir thought that couldn't be the magic orange turban. Rasfir picked it up and examined it. The item was without a doubt an orange turban. Rasfir placed the turban on his head and began to stare at the dog. The dog slowly walked toward him and began to lick his hand. Rasfir began to [at him on the head and spoke his first words to the dog "Well Barter I guess it's time to go." Rasfir climbed on Barters back and Barter began to run at full speed towards the window. Rasfir began to think that maybe he made the wrong decision and started to panic. t that very moment Barter jumped out of the window. Rasfir screamed which woke the children in the orphanage. The children looked toward the window and watched as Barter and Rasfir disappeared into the starry night.

My Response to President Obama's Back to School Speech

Supporting the speech
Its a speech about education and staying in school. The speech is supposed to encourage American students not cause America's parents to become frantic. Their was nothing in it about becoming a democrat when youre older or recruiting children.

Controversial
People may feel that its not the place for a Presidential Address and in school they should be learning.
