Live Forever I wanna live forever--are you ready to die? Living like you're dying, let me ask you why? If you were given the chance at eternal breath would you accept life or slide towards death? I wanna live forever--at least a thousand years so I could watch the world grow and die between tears my crying turns to gold and I look on in awe heart full of diamonds from what I felt and saw cold as a diamond? Hard as a diamond? That's a tough riddle, what saith simon? Simon says live your life right now, it's your chance [View Full Entry]

Pictures from the Jungle... I wrote this poem the day I was hiking all through the jungle. I stopped at an overlook and pondered the hills. Hope you enjoy. The Jungle Within Sitting top a mountain overlooking the jungle I have just enough food and water, living humble soon Iīm off again to bushwack thru the brush seeing all the lush plants gives me such a rush we all cultivate a garden within ourselves and my walk through the rainforest is like venturing thru myself Itīs wild inside me, overgrown, chaotic holding species rare, varied, exotic with the disorganization comes so [View Full Entry]

Our hands got black from the charcol. The students learn to fight fires in these mountains. Last year a girl died in a fire!
From Zamorano, a university that is a country within a country... I donīt have homework so my mind is free to think about whatever it is I need or please I donīt have people telling me how to act, no rules no one saying No No NO! Iīm not in school Itīs been so much better for me to grow to learn, my soil is fertile so I sow the seeds of what I want to be, first they flower then when theyīre ripe I eat the fruits for power constant crop rotation keeps my soil from wearing out and the [View Full Entry]

Jonas with the bush. IT just grew right in our yard in utila! No one smoked it though.
Well, it's pretty wild to start a new year. It's funny to think that it's 2007, sometimes we wonder where all the time went. I had a great new year, but here I am still on utila. I haven't moved in 2 and a half weeks. As you can imagine, it can get a little boring after a while, being in one place that long. You start eating at the same place and doing the same thing over and over, and all that. No, just kidding. It's been great! I was thinking back to last new years, and how I went [View Full Entry]

Yup, so I had a wonderful tropical x mas on utila. I'm still here, just chilling out because it is time for that. There are lots of good people, and I was fortunate enough to have good friends all around me for x mas. On xmas eve, the europeans celebrate, so we were planning on going out. I had another gig up at the fairy tale bar, for it was sunday again! I was suppossed to go in the afternoon, but I had my advanced diving course. That day we were to go down to 100 feet! We got up early [View Full Entry]

you feel good leaving the mainland for a tropical island. Maybe weīll never know why.
Here i am, made it to utila. It's a really cool little island with lots of tourists, parties, and diving. When I got here, I came with a few people I met on the boat, and we all went to this dive shop. The guy was cool, and he told us about what he offerred. We all signed up with him. It was the biggest class he'd ever had, with 19! We spent late nights studying diving, long times under the water, but now I'm a certified open water diver! I can scuba dive--self-contained underwater breathing device is what it stands [View Full Entry]

A fine suset on Utila

Well, lately I have been getting quite off the beaten path. After spending three weeks in belize I finally made it to Honduras. My final adventures in Belize: I went to another caye, san pedro, which I didnīt like much at all. It was way too touristy. Plus a little more dear than my budget was liking! So I got out of there quick, and went to dangriga. I had to walk through the ghettoes of belize city--itīs mostly pretty ghetto, at least what I saw, sorry to say...anyway, dangriga was more relaxed. But not many tourists there at all. I [View Full Entry]

To my friends and family in the states, and the world over, a very merry xmas from abroad. Harry Zithmoose is the festival celebrated by my family. Itīs a pagan festival, where the famliy and friends get together and eat good food, enjoy good company, etc. I will be celebrating from Utila, a tropical island. This is not the usual way...but I hope it proves agreable. So...my best holiday wishes to all. With Love, From Colin [View Full Entry]
