There will forever be a debate as to whether i should cut my hair or grow it out.

This little 'saga' if can call it that, began in March when i first attempted to grow my hair. The prototype was JC from Nsync...aka the other dude that usually sings. The long hair lasted until late May...and was the beginning of my bandana wearing, as it is a whole lot easier to wear a bandana then to maintain all that hair. [does anyone remember Millicent's gathering in the park? oh yeah...if anyone has a pic of me there..send it via email]

Skip ahead a few months. As i began to grow it out again...i was forced to cut it by my mom who wanted me to look 'presentable' at our family reunion...so the hair was cut before the experiment could begin.

So anyhow...after that...i decided i'm gonna grow my hair out as i go back to high school for grade 13.5...yeah 13 point 5...in Canada we have up to grade 13 and well its a point 5 because i had to go back for a semester...[long story which could be posted later]

Well, here it all is. The HAIR SAGA. Posted in it's entirety. From first entry to the last. [don't mind the odd screen names...]

Enjoy :)

00.11.01 - DARE! dare to believe u can survive. u hold the future in ur hand.

Hmm maybe u`ve been noticing how i incorperate song titles for use as a heading...or maybe not. Not everyone can combine skool boy good looks and brains like i can. I love the power of genetics.

Or...maybe it`s b/c "i`ve got the touch! i`ve got the power!" hahaha i don`t know why but that song has been in my head ever since my outsider buddy vitaminJay started singing it while we were walking to the mall...hahaha...and now it frequently appears in our icq convos.

Wrestlemania X8 tickets go on sale tommorow...and i have no moolah...so no go. Unless i go to plan B thn I will try to get tickets w/my trusty dusty credit card...but if not...thn i will throw a MIKE AWESOME sized Wrestlemania party at my house come march 18. So all my buds are invited...for now i`ll keep my hopes at minimum and be content watching survior series on PPV.

I am still in need of a haircut...and well not that many ppl have supportedmy idea of growing my hair...

I had one supporter, last months page person of the month, fliramor...while therehave been a few who give the thumbs down to the long JC fr. nsync type hair...

- 03QueenPuta30: "CUT IT!!!" she always says that...haha

- vi3tsweet3e said, "cut it"...whn asked for a reason...thu replied "i like short hair i guess"...hmm good enough reason i guess...

- vitaminJay - "Geez man get a haircut already, do u want me to give u some money?"...and thats fr. my fellow outsider. haha

- mon ami dans Macmaster university ang_stratus said, "i think u should cut it." and she hasn`t seen me in a while...

- my `ate` the former aNgeLjen said "so cutit!!! personally i like guys w/a clean cut, but ragggggggidy is cool too..so half and half", i`m content w/this one as well...but her other reason could be a good one too: "...clean cut...u[me] look really good everytime u[me] come to skool w/a clean cut. soooOooo pogi." hahaha that could be a good reason...so we`ll see this weekend.

hmm but there are reasons to keep my hair long...

- fliramor said, "dont cut it"..."i like it" whn prompted for a reason she states, "i think it suits u, makes u look older." okay that was only one reason...but whatever. Just keep checkin back to see the status of my hair saga.

Anyhow, I`m at home today, b/c it was raining outside, i was gonna be late for skool and i didnt want to spill my coffee i made while running to skool. Good plan eh?

That`s all for now. The countdown is on. 3 more months of skool and i`m done.

11.07.01 - We built this city...we built this city on rock n rooooooooll

Goodness.

A lot happening.

Firstly.

I lost my biology binder. Its been missing for 4 days. However it has been found. Right at the foot of my bed. Hahaha

and just in time too. I have a test tommorow.

Secondly.

I really fuckin want Joker the Last Laugh #3...

Thirdly.

ICQ is addictive...as is MSN.

Fourthly.

Old videogames are addictive. Just ask my singing buddy Fliramor.

Fifthly.

Yes...fifthly.

Sixthly.

I`ve been sporting late 70s/early 80s style this past week...guess its b/c of my long shaggy hair. Lets take a look at the gear now shall we???

[styling and profiling like only i can. haha]

and what started the whole trend off...well it was a factor...my hair was the catalyst.

[my dad`s old adidas i found in the garage.]

I was feelin so cool and old skool...that i wore them to the mall.

Bad Idea.

Did u know that old shoes fr. the late 70s/early 80s contain a hard sharp plastic in the heel? Well i`m telling u that they do.

[my bad cut (i have one on both heels) and really ghetto CK pants...they talk]

These cuts sting pretty bad. I should know. IT HURTS TO WALK TO SKOOL! *side note...wearing pants that are tight...hurt ur nuts beyond belief when sitting* .my sacradilliac is in pain.

Anyhow...gotta go figure out whats happening this weekend...either my bowling plan...or my `ate` jenn`s karaoke idea fr. last week...or maybe both.

Anyhow...doc`s out like a sucka hit by the ball in a game of dodgeball.

11.11.01 - I Rock the Party That Rocks the Body

Hair still long.

Last night was rather fun. Got to see the ppl i hardly get to see. Since it was Kiss-Angel`s and Sweet_Babycakes bday gathering at Kelsey`s Restarunt. We [bLiNeGuY and Bang_Bang_Chua] arrived later...and thn the rest of the guys followed.

Drank last night for the first time since Aug 24th.

Got to see and converse w/ppl i havent seen in a bit, like Lilstar who has an expensive phone, my fellow nursing Dudley Boy, Sweet_Grapes aka Tubba J Dudley [i`m C-Von Dudley] and 1 half of my fave twins TWINkle_Starr who whn i see her online is always busy doing skool work and should have worn a thicker jacket b/c it was cold out.

After all consumption of food was done...we tried to figure out where to go. I wanted to go bowling...as did the guys...and the girls wanted to go to Karaoke. The girls won out. However, before all this, we went to my ate Mau-star`s house.

Where we all either talked, watched the raptors game, or watched as vitaminJay oogled an FHM magazine.

Oy. *Colin shakes his head in disapproval*

Anyhow. Sooner or later our two teams of dudes and gals .SP/L\IT. Gals ended up going to karaoke...well not really. They went to go play pool. Dudes on the other hand stayed in mississauga, went to second cup for coffee [i never had an expresso b4...and well i wont ever again...whatta fuckin rip off...]and then off to Sweet_Grapes` place to watch E`s travel show "Wild On"!!! Featuring our favourite girl: Brooke Burke Yeah!!! She`s the bamboyaka shot and she`s smart too [UCLA]. [goodness]

Hmm well on ur way outta here...d/l Rob Zombie - "Never Gonna Stop" and Ghostface Killah - "Flowers" and the ROM of the month is "River City Ranson" for ur trusty Nintendo Emulator.

Well...All is good in the hood that is the don_juan_doc.

16.11.01 - Round & Round

Guess what?

Yup u guessed it.

COLIN GOT A HAIR CUT.

word.

Well i wasnt gonna get one...but i needed to.

Lets call it a case of divine intervention.

U see, my dad told me whn i came home that the priest fr. our church called and told my dad that they`re offering free family pictures...and well my dad cant lie or say no to a priest or free pictures. So tommorow we`re due for a family picture.

and well a fam picture calls for a haircut.

So it took not a peer or family member...but GOD to make me get a haircut. Well i guess GOD likes my hair short. So for now. Who`s to question Him?

Not I. That`s for sure.

Today went to vitaminJays house to see if i could fix his comp. No luck. So we end up going out to go get his mom some lottery tickets and a pack of bottled water, today at the local supermarket...or as i called it..."Colin & Jay`s Excellent Food Emporium Adventure!" Also saw my fave kambal Mel and Mich there as well. i couldnt wave b/c Massa Jay `made ` me carry his fam`s bottled water j/k [time to breathe]

[Ms. Natalie: Colin shouldn`t go to skool, he should be w/me.] I think i should too.

did i tell u ppl that i love natalie portman???

Well i did now.

Thats enough for today.

whoa...so that was it.

In various surveys i sent...occasionally a question asked was...[for the girls] 'guys with short/long hair' and the answer was always SHORT. hmm not that answer played any role in my decision to get a hair cut. It's just something to take into future consideration.

Here's an ode to my long hair...c/o Creed and their song...My Sacrifice.

...and that it was.

"When you are with me...I'm FREE. I'm CARELESS. I BELIEVE..."

geez.

I was a ROCK STAR!!! w/the hair i could 'rock gotta rock rock on' like nobody's business.

I had the touch.

I had the power.

When all hell broke loose i was right in the eye of the storm. When things got too tough. I had the touch.

hahaha. The touch.
