well i never write in this anymore. I'm totally psyched for next year. I have a house with three awesome bros, four if you include the awesome bro that I am. My schedule is going to kick ass considering I don't have class til 11 on MWF and 12:30 on TR. I think I am going to Jamaica this summer on a missions trip. It should be jammin. Bless up mi bredda. |

Alright, you know what i'm freaking tired of? Internet Jesus. I don't need anymore emails, myspace, bulletins, or groups on facebook to reaffirm my faith. Yeah, I'm all for sharing what I believe in but I am tired of people doing it the wrong way. It's so easy to display something over the internet or to be critical or judgemental of someone else. I'm not going to save myself by reading a myspace bulletin that says I need God with a little bible verse in it. Hallelujia, we have saved the world once again. Wake up everybody, people in the world are smarter than this. We have our own opinions and thoughts and beliefs. Thanks for the thoughts and good intentions but maybe the way you live and the way you talk to people will make a little more of an impact. Current Music: chili peppers |

i can eat again! (kinda)
So I got my jaw unwired yesterday. I know what a lot of people are probably thinking..."wow that was fast!" No. No it wasn't. I pretty much didnt eat for the whole month of november. I broke it on november 2 and got it off on the 29 and my diet hasn't been able to change too much since the unwiring. It was a crazy ride. For the next 10 days i can only have food that is as soft as mashed potatoes because I need to build the strength back up in my jaw and make sure the break is completely healed. I only lost 8 pounds through out the whole ordeal which i think is pretty impressive. Well i lost 15 at first but gained back 7. You try to drink through a straw for a month and not lose weigh. oh any by the way, if i have one more girl say, omg! i wish i could lost that much weight, i want my jaw wired shut. I will personally make sure that your jaw breaks in two or more places and that you are never able to reproduce. People that small minded shouldnt be allowed to have small minded children. Unfortunately the whole ordeal is not totally over. My teeth are really messed up from the fall and I will probably need a couple root canals and some more orthodontic work. Hopefully I can solve it with just like a retainer or invisalign though. I figure that I've been through the worst of it though and anything else from this point on won't be that bad. Overall I would actually say this has been a very good experience. It's been very hard and upsetting but at the same time I can feel how I've grown and how I've been humbled throughout the situation. I'd never want to do it again but I know it's changed my outlook on a lot of things, such as taking food for granted (which I've always tried not to do) and thinking that things could definitely be worse. I'm sure that next time I am sick or have a bad headache or have to go the dentist (which i hate) I'll probably think, "welp, at least my jaw isn't wired shut!" -Colt45 Post script I will be able to perform in my show tomorrow! I have missed like 6 performances so far and can't wait to get back at it. Current Mood:  relievedCurrent Music: I celebrate the day |

well i've been meaning to update for quite a while but i think this kind of sets me over the edge. for those of you who haven't heard, here's the story. I use a longboard to cruise around campus and at about 8:30 on thursday night i did a faceplant off of it andhad to go to the emergency room. They stitched me up and sent me on my way. On saturday morning i was in scottsdale and woke up with a really high fever. So I went to the emergency room where they told me i had an infection and somebody was finally smart enough to do some x-rays on me. They told me my jaw is broken in two places and i needed to have surgery immediately the next day. So on sunday morning i had surgery and my jaw is now wired shut for the next 4 weeks. I can talk through my teeth and anything i eat needs to be consumed through a straw since my teeth don't come a part anymore. I have to come back to scottsdale every weekend now to meet with my doctor and i will be here til at least this monday. life pretty much sucks right now. i'm usually the person to say, well it could be worse, and i know it could be worse but right now seems like about the worst that it's been before. |

This entry starts off with four random sentances
Let me start out by saying that chili peppers CD remains amazing. I haven't updated in a long time. The suns game is on in an hour and a half and I really hope they win. My weekend was good. Friday night was the dodgeball tournament. My team came in third out of 16. It was really awesome and just a real fun night all together. Saturday night I saw the davinci code which I thought was really good. I hadn't read the book and didnt really have too many expectations and I really enjoyed the movie. I really think people should make a point to go see it but don't walk in the theatre expecting it to be the most amazing thing ever because it's just a movie. Sunday we had a play at my church that I was a part of. I'm going to try and get thespian points for it. Holy crap I can not wait for school to be over this year. There's only 8 real days left of school. That still ammounts to about 2 and a half weeks but if I keep telling myself the number of school days left I feel a lot better. OH YEAH...and I got my course load for next year in the BFA program at U of A. I'm taking 17 credits with 6 classes and I'm supposed to be available for rehearsal from 4-10 PM mon-fri. I'm stoked! (not really, (well kind of)). From, Colter Current Mood: kinda just whateverCurrent Music: chili peppers |

updates from the library
The reason that I’m updating in here is because we’re supposed to be making photocopies of our sources for our senior research papers but I don’t have any money with me. So I’m just hanging out and can’t really find anything to do. Oh how I wish it was summer lately. It really does feel like summer too. Last night I was hanging out with some friends just over by dairy queen and it really didn’t feel like we had school the next day. Has anyone else felt that all lately? It feels like I’ve been trying to spread myself a mile wide and a mile deep which is really hard. I really do care about my friends but it seems like there’s not enough time on the weekend to see all of them. I’m tired of having so many people say, I haven’t seen you in forever. I’m not upset with them, I’m more upset with myself I guess. I’ve been trying to hang out with more of my friends by sacrificing sleep but as my eye lids keep falling right now I can conclude that that is a bad idea and isn’t working. For one of the first times this year, I actually felt like I’m going to miss people next year. I’m not sure if I should get over the fact that I’m going to miss people and just forget about it or if I should just let myself feel it and take it in. If I seem emotional lately or if I’m constantly telling you how much I love you and how glad I am that you’re my friend, the above is probably the reason.

Crash Into Me
I've had a really great break so far. Seen a lot of my friends from church and then a lot of my friends from theatre. Wolfstock is on friday and my band is playing and i'm super excited. I've had a pretty lazy day so far. I woke up pretty late, showered, and then fell asleep on the couch for like 2 hours. Once I woke up at like 1:30 I finally ate something, but it's probably good i've had this kind of day. Everyone needs one every now and then and I havent slept in late much of break at all. People have kind of been irritating me lately with all the negativity and the hating of everything. That is the result of finally having the mind set of how incredible lucky we are. I mean I know that not every teenager in Arizona has it that great but compared to the rest of the world they really do. My youth pastor told a really youching story that has changed a lot of my views but it's kind of long to write in here, I'll write it out another time because I really do think it's worth knowing. I need to get my hair cut today...FS Lounge here I come! Current Mood: goodCurrent Music: Crash |

updating time
Some people say really unintelligent things on this website. I'm not as much talking about the incorrect spelling and the bad grammar because we all know that years of being online has pretty much destroyed all will to do something correctly anymore. But seriously, the content of what some people write on here...It's like you have to try to sound that stupid. Maybe I should start posting really stupid things and then I'll get a ton of comments.

It is so fitting
Today I rolled over and my window has water pouring down it. Of course it's raining today is what I was thinking. I mean it hasn't rained in like forever and today it did. Today was my Papa's funeral. (Papa is my grandpa and i'm sick of calling him Grandpa to people who ask because that's not what he is to me or any of my cousins.) Anyway, me and all my cousins carried the casket out to the grave and everyone had black small umbrellas. It reminded me of the My Chemical Romance video for "Helena" where they carry the casket out while it's pouring. I've always loved that video for some reason. I spoke at the funeral today. It felt realy good to get a lot of what i've been feeling off of my chest. He was a really funny man. I think my favorite thing that he said was, well if you asked him anything about shoes he would say this: "Well I wear a size 9 but a 10 always feels so good I usually just by an 11." That's not even that funny. For some reason every time he delivered it, it was hilarious. For all of you who are upset that it rained today, be glad for my family. Because my grandma and him loved the rain. I am so glad it rained today. Current Music: Shy That Way - Jason Mraz |

Apathetic is the way to be
It sucks sometimes that I have to go off to college and will not get to see people as often as I see them now. School has been so pointless lately. I'm getting so tired or listening to IB kids do their presentations in TOK. My Senior paper in English is going to be really easy and that is like all we're doing for the rest of the year. I'm tired of listening to IB kids do their commentaries while I TA for Parker for her English class. Calculus is productive, no complaints. I hate Ms. Wise so much. Today while she's entering grades she says, "I want all of you to come up here and try to enter grades while other people talk and see how hard it is." I was so tempted to go up there and be like, "I'll do it you stupid bitch." Seriously, how hard can it be to enter in numbers while there is noise in the background. And then theatre is pretty boring because I don't think we can really do that much for our monodrama's while we're in class. Sorry, I guess I felt like complaining. But isn't that what livejournal is for? Current Mood: apatheticCurrent Music: Relient K- Apathetic |

I just got done clipping my finger nails for the first time in a little too long. I clipped one of them too short and now it hurts but there's nothing I can do about it. Don't you just hate that some things can't be undone? Current Mood: contemplativeCurrent Music: Jason Mraz |

in a blogging mood
I've been wanting to update for a long time but haven't really had anything to say. I've had a lot going on but at the same time I haven't had much going on. With not being in Shakespeare abridged my schedule has opened up so much but it still feels like i'm doing the same ammount of outside activity I would be doing if I were to be in a show right now. Five Minutes Fast is recording on thursdays at SCC. It's been so much fun, even thought I haven't personally recorded too much yet, just hanging out in the studio has been a blast. It sucks that graduation isn't too far away and it's going to end eventually. But I guess all things eventually come to an end. OH!!! If you want a heart breaking (but still really happy) story read this... The other night my mom, my brother, and I were sitting on the couch watching American Idol and my brother Brant (he's 6) got up and says..."umm...colter....are you going to take a picture of me with you to college?" My Mom started crying and I was sort of laughing but felt like I could cry too and I said, "Of course I will Brant." So he went and got one for me right then and there. It was really sweet.  This isn't that picture...but I still like it Current Mood: happyCurrent Music: The Rocket Summer |

Wednesday, January 5th, 2005 4:18 pm So I haven't updated in a really long time. After this update I probably won't update for a long time. I made a couple new years resolutions. Here they are: -Turn 18 -Finish Junior Year -Start some type of real band -Go to a Boston Red Sox Game I will probably do all four of those things except for maybe the third one. If anyone else made any new years resolutions let me know. Sweet... Current Mood: accomplishedCurrent Music: Five Minutes Fast |
