Who you calling a proselyte?

Word: Proselytize
Source: "The Slow Life Picks Up Speed"- article from the new york times.
How it is used: "But it does have an increasing number of proselytizers, like John Brown, an architect in Calgary, Alberta, whose year-old Web site, theslowhome.com, urges consumers to say no to “fast-food architecture,” and Geir Berthelsen, a Norwegian motivational speaker whose Web site slowplanet.com, which is to go online in mid-March, has as its goal to be a hub for all things slow, from slow travel to slow shopping to slow design, he said. Ms. Chanin, meanwhile, has a book, “Alabama Stitch Book: Projects and Stories Celebrating Hand-Sewing, Quilting, and Embroidery for Contemporary Sustainable Design” (Stewart, Tabori & Chang) due out in March."

My sentence: My friend Chris is in a frat. he is always proselytizing trying to get me to join the frat. also. It gets old real quick.

You know it is funny, when I found my word of choice I also found a typo. The wrighter of the article uses the word "proselytizers" which is not a proper ending to the word proselytise.

"A bit you didn't know about me"

Hello my name is Alan potter, I am curently an advertising studend at San Jose State. In my spair time I enjoy: surfing, frisbee, hiking, camping, watching movies, thrift store shopping, running, taking my dog for a walk/ letting my dog take me on a walk on my skateboard, skateboarding, goiung to the beach, skimboarding, snowboarding, sandboarding, playing chess, playing on the computer, swimming, hanging out with friends, cooking, building skateboards, the great outdoors, and anything new. This is my first blog for my 100 W class. I have already created a blog for another class but it is now time to start a new blog for a new class. So, here we are.

I would assume that I'll be writing quite a bit on here since by the end of the semester we are to have written 8,000 words. I am sure this won't be last time you hear from me.
