Dreams Gleams of peach and lilac streak the sky, as a Friday night sunset intensifies in Downtown Boston. Pages flip one after the other in Elizabeth’s textbook, as she frustratingly cannot find the answers to her Economics worksheet. The home telephone rings as Liz’s mom scurries to answer it. “Hello?” “Liz it’s for you honey.” Liz gets up off the old chocolate brown leather couch, rolling her eyes as to who could be calling to talk now. To her relief, it was just her best friend Carrie. “Hey Liz I’m about to leave to pick you up for the play, are you ready?” Liz exhaled forgetting she had made early plans with her friend “Oh yeah I’m ready, see you soon!” She hung up the phone and quickly hustled to go get ready. Levi’s, and a sweater it is for this late autumn evening in the fine year of 1982. An all too familiar blue Sedan pulls up to Liz’s driveway, as she walks out into the brisk breezy weather. The sounds of crisp leaves underneath her dirty sneakers, as she hops into the vehicle enclosed with a bubblegum perfume smell of nostalgia. This was a tradition for the two best friends. Even though they couldn’t care less, they always went to school plays to show support for their other friend in the group Rebecca, who almost always acquired the lead role. Carrie turns on the car stereo, and they soon start chanting out to Eye of The Tiger. As they pull up to the crimson red school, and are about to enter the doors, Liz notices a flyer that makes her mind wander. “Boys

The best part of a long, hard-working day is when you finally get to lay in your bed, close your eyes and let your imagination run free. As you sleep your mind takes you to another place far away from the real world. You begin to dream. Over the night, you may have several dreams. In the morning, you may wake up and wonder what your dreams were suppose to mean for you and your life. By analyzing your dream, it "gives a true picture of the 'subjective state'-how we really feel about ourselves-which the conscious mind cannot or will not give" (Wietz 289). In order to find the meaning of a dream, you have to pick out the most important symbols and define them. But you may be wondering what exactly is a symbol?
To many people, dreams are the thoughts that occur while sleeping, having almost mystic qualities. For millennia the significance of dreams has escaped even the brightest of philosophers and intellectuals. Many people have speculated about why people dream and what meanings the dreams have but in recent times two theories have gained credibility in answering those questions. The first theory is Sigmund Freuds and the other is known as the cognitive theory of dreams also known as biological determinism.
There once was a young girl named Annamarie Weathers. She was one of the strongest kids on the block. She would play rugby with the boys and sometimes beat them.

But, when her mother had finally stepped off the stage, there was a

Within the town of woodsberry there was a little girl named Emily who was 9 years old, but she always felt like she was all grown up.

There are many facts that are unknown about the mind. For centuries, philosophers and scientists have tried to understand how it works. We have learned that the mind has a number of different levels of processing. Before Sigmund Freud “nearly all the previous research and theorizing of psychologists had dealt with conscious, such as perception, memory, judgment, and learning“ (Hunt185). Freud brought forth a number of theories that dealt with “the unconscious and its crucial role in human behavior”(Hunt 185). The unconscious is a storage area for information that is not being used. It is also the home of “powerful primitive drives and forbidden wishes that constantly generated pressure on the conscious mind”(Hunt
Everywhere I looked, I saw people applauding. The bright stage lights beamed on my face and I could hardly see the gigantic audience. When I heard my name, my heart began racing as if I had just jumped off of the world’s largest tower. I pushed myself up as quickly as I could and began strolling towards the announcer. I felt the cold winds rustle through the makeup on the pores of my tan, soft skin, making me simmer down. I smelt the freshness of the plastic, silver trophy that was delicately placed in my rounded, sweaty hand. My heart was still darting beneath my skin as I walked back to my spot with the award, tightly in my arms. I could taste victory.
As she parks her car and approaches the crime scene, she is greeted with Lizzy. ”Hey, there you are…how was the weekend? Never

Robbie spins her and said softly into her ear, “Give me an hour after I drop Rachel off -- I’ll come over.”
Since I was little my dreams have always been very vivid. I could always wake up change what I wanted to dream about, go back to sleep and have the dream I thought up. People like my Mom, Dad, and boyfriend are in my dreams the most of the time.In the past year my dreams have changed to be more dark and I can't always change them. Most of the time these dreams end up with me being all alone somewhere, and I can't seem to find anyone. I have had that one dream I will never forget about two years ago, it still haunts me today. Yet, 99% of the time my dreams are bright and happy.
“Don’t worry, Angie. Dawn will be fine.” With that, and some goodbye’s, the two hung up, just as Angela was walking in the doorway.
“You’re right Angela, of course I know where you are all the time. I knew that you would come back for these two and you did come at such a wonderful time. You really should join us, it’s rude to keep company waiting.”
This critical evaluation essay will be on Martin Luther King’s speech “I Have a Dream”. This speech was delivered during the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom on 28 August 1963. This march was initially organized to focus on the economy, but as the date grew near, the focus shifted to social issues in the country.
