Please read this and tell me what you think.
I have always been motivated to succeed. In high school I was a member of the school's Junior ROTC Corp and was involved in many activities through that program. I was also a member of the school's Jazz Band and assissted the Drama Club by recording their productions and editing the recordings to allow them to analyze their productions.
I also studied radio and television production. During this course of study I was invited to host several cable access programs, including moderating several panel discussions on the homeless situation in southern California. This allowed me the ability to express my creative abilities while also indulging my passion for helping others. It also provided me with a learning opportunity as I had to balance opposing points of veiw to allow everyone the opportunity to present their case and inform the public of the complexity of the issue.
After I graduated high school. I chose to serve my country as a member of the United States Air Force. During my service as an Air Force Security Specialist I had the opportunity to provide support for the United Nations relief mission in Croatia and Bosnia and Herzegovina. It was a period of learning for me, both about myself and the realities of the world around me. It was this time that really crystalized within me the desire to help others.
This desire was further increased by my service as a missionary for the Church of Jeasus Christ of Latter-Day Saints. I was privileged to spend two years working among the people of the states of Alabama, Mississippi, and Tennesee. One of my major responsibilities while I was involved in this effort was community service. I worked closely with many different agencies including the Salvation Army. In 1994 I was primarily responsible for running the Christmas Kettle program for the Salvation Army in Jasper, Alabama.
After completing my term of service I was still motivated by a desire to help other people. I decided to go back to school and get a college education in preparation for become a school teacher. The work was difficult but rewarding. While attending college I also worked full time in the manufacturing sector and helped my wife raise our five children.
I have often felt that the greatest work that we can do is in providing opportunities for our fellow man. After graduating from college I put this philosophy into practice by taking a teaching position at a residential treatment facility for girls who had mental and emotional problems. Although the work was rewarding in it’s own way, I found myself with a burning desire to find other ways I could help.
This opportunity presented itself when I was downsized due to the economic difficulties of the time. I realized that I could do more by representing these girls and others like them. I could not only teach them and be a support to them but I could be an advocate for them.
It is my desire to help others and to provide a positive influnce that has brought me to this point in my life. My grandfather used to tell me that helping others and standing up for those who don’t have a voice is the greatest thing that a person can do. I have always tried to live my life by that philosophy.
I would be most pleased to attend your institution. I believe that I will bring a passion and a will to succeed that will benefit both myself and those around me. I have long looked for a way to allow me to help those who cannot help themselves. I believe that I have much to offer and can be a great asset if simply given the chance.
I appreciate your taking the time to get to know me better. I hope that I will be able to demonstrate the same drive that has pushed me forward so far to you. All of my life I have looked for opportunities to serve others and I look forward to having continued opportunities to do so. It is only by helping others that we can help ourselves and the best work that I can think of is the work where I am making the world a better place for other people. Thank you for your consideration.
yeah, but this is home grown organic. no buzzing or pockets involved.
Why. Are. People. So. Hurtful?

I believe your message is a good solid one, but other than that I am no help in this department.
Let's see, Taig translated for me: thanks.
Patrick ignored my post: rotten banana.
Cosmo appeared: yay!
Personally, I prefer the adjective phallacy.

Everyone knows that Mairk rolls the big blunts.
People with sinister facial hair are always the most dubious bastages.

I was switching back and forth between David and you. Sorry, thought it wouldn't be too oblique.
As to big blunts, Urizen, all my drugs of choice are legal. Get me to a country where it's legal: all bets are off, as long as it isn't particularly addictive or dangerous.
Women can be addictive and dangerous even when they're legal.

Depending on the college being applied, is it appropos to mention your actual religious affiliation? Just wondered.

Surely no institution devoted to education would discriminate based on someone's religious affiliation...
...No, I don't believe it either.

Ah. I was thinking "substance." Women are both of the above, in my experience. Especially #1.
Cohibas -- yes!
Urizen: the religious affiliation question for David is a good one. I'd seriously take a look at whether it would help in getting into a particular school (I'd assume, Mormon), and otherwise, I'd ditch it.

Unless it is a known positive discrimination, assume negative. Believe it!

I mean, if he was applying to BYU, then I wouldn't think twice. But I guess it all depends on the university and the region applied. *shrug*
now I want to go out and get a cigar :(

I do believe that there's negative discrimination. That was what I was trying to get at. I FAILED!

Again, I FAILED to get my point across well. I suck.

I got two here in the house and two bottles of Chimay reserve to go with them.
