Day 10

A photo of your favorite place to eat.

I know it's somewhat cliche, but I LOVE me some Olive Garden.  :)  Soooo good!  The five cheese ziti is to die for, as is the Chicken Alfredo, and don't forget the salad and bread sticks!  

I also love me some Panda Express and P.F. Changs. :)

Day 9

Something you are proud of...

So I have a confession...I fell off the blogger band-wagon because of THIS post.  :/  It's all because the thing I'm going to write about I originally didn't want to, because I felt selfish.  So I just didn't post...and didn't post.... and didn't post.  Well, now I'm posting, so I apologize for the selfishness.  :)

Honestly, I am very proud of being the National Champion in Audio Production for the SkillsUSA organization.  I have found something that I LOVE to do, because it seems to bring all of my talents together into one.  I've changed my major because of this, seriously considered pursuing the world of being on-air talent for a career, and made two of the BEST friends I've ever had.  I love them both.  Thank you for everything.  Love you Troy and Shae!  (Or Sheraya as her birth certificate declares....lol.)

Right after we had just won.  Don't we look happy!?

Day 8

A song to match your mood... 

One might think that as into music as I am that a  post like this would be a cinch...too bad that would be an incorrect assumption.  I'm even currently sitting in the radio station at my JC doing a DJ shift, and still am not entirely sure what song...  Maybe it's because I'm unsure of what exactly my mood is today....sad?  No.  Elated?  No.  Apathetic?  No.  Meh?  Yeah, just "meh".  Haha.  I know that sounds kind of pessimistic (or very pessimistic depending on whether  you yourself are either an optimist or a pessimist, but I really don't mean it that way.  It's just that this day thus far has been neither "fabulous" nor "deplorable".  Simply, meh.  Haha.

Instead of a song that matches my mood, here a couple of songs that I haven't been able to get enough of lately:

Forever by Chris Brown

What the Hell by Avril Lavigne


Perfect by P!nk

**Warning!  The Video for Perfect is slightly gory and entirely beautiful all at the same time.  Also, it is a link to the edited version, so no worries about a slip of the word.  :)**

Okay, so if you know me, you know that I've been obsessed with Forever since it came out, but I seriously just can't get enough!  Soooo good.  Probably because the lyrics represent everything I think love should be. 

I've been meaning to post about this next thing for a bit now, and just haven't been able to find the time, so here goes.  Lol.  A while ago I applied for an Ambassador position at the University I want to go to, and am proud to announce that I'VE BEEN ACCEPTED INTO THE AMBASSADOR PROGRAM!!!!!  I'm soooooo incredibly excited!  I had been having a hard time actually deciding where to go after the JC this year, and between this amazing opportunity and a whole lot of prayer, I have made my decision.  (It also doesn't hurt that there is an INCREDIBLE scholarship tied to the ambassador position.)  I just found out today about our first gettogether/training coming up in April, and I am so excited and grateful for to start up this new phase in my life!

Oh...and I've changed my major.  Lol.  Sorta....Haha.  So, medical schools don't really care what your bachelor's degree is in necessarily.  They just care that a) you have one, b) you have completed the necessary pre-requisite courses, and c) you prove that you posses scientific knowledge through your performance on the MCAT.  I had been going to major in Biochemistry, because the Med-School pre-reqs are also required courses for that degree, so it would make things easier.  Well, I've found myself here at the JC taking quite a few Communication courses, which makes it highly plausible to finish a Journalism/Mass Communication degree in a manageable amount of time.  And besides, I really like it.  :)  Besides, med-schools get SO many applicants with a Bachelor's in some "science area" that after a while all the applicants start to blend together.  When you're an average chap like myself, you have to have something to make yourself stand out, like a Bachelor of Science Degree in Journalism/Mass Communication.  :)  Oh!  With a double minor in Music and Chemistry.  Lol.  So, yeah, there's the Kelton News of the Day!  Haha.

Like I've said before, life's a complete journey, you might as well have fun!

Day 7

Your dream wedding...

So, this post is one of those things that I'm not really sure I'll really have any control over, so should I even bother coming up with a post?  Who knows...lol.  I don't really know if I'd prefer a springtime wedding, summer wedding, or a winter wedding.  Or maybe even a fall wedding...  I do know this.  If I had a say in the matter, a winter wedding would have a deep plum and matte silver color scheme (not shiny silver...yuck!), and a summer/spring wedding would have a deep brown and deep turquoise/ocean blue color scheme.  Fall wedding?  Meh.  Haha.  Beyond the colors, I don't really care.  Haha.







Oh, except I desperately want a Mandarin cut tuxedo...

And if I can look that debonair and sexy, I'd take that too.  ;)

Day 6

A photo of an animal you’d love to keep as a pet...

Umm, so here's the deal...I don't really have a desire for a pet...of the indoor variety.  I don't want a dog, because they get into everything and they get hair everywhere.  I don't want a cat, because I'm deathly allergic (and again with the hair thing...).  And I don't want anything else because then you just start to get into the realm of "weirdo-pet's-in-the-hours-dude", and that's just not me.  Haha. (Oh, and I HATE rodents, so the rat/gerbil/hamster thing is definitely out.)  I really like horses, and would love to have one someday, but it's not on my list of must haves when I'm older...I don't mind lizards, so I think I could possibly deal with a chameleon or something...I did have a pet goldfish once....

Basically this post is turning out really lame.  So, scroll down to see the pet that I'm picking for this post.

Is picking a significant other as a "pet" against the rules?  Bahaha.

Day 5

A photo of yourself two years ago...

This picture was taken almost two years ago exactly.  It was taken on St. Patrick's Day in the "Town-Square" of Fort Collins, Colorado during a spring-break road trip.  My two friends, Davey and Mike, and I thought we were hilarious.  Okay, well, we were pretty funny.  ;)  It's amazing to think how drastically life can change in just a short period of time.  When this photo was taken, I was literally the happiest I have ever been in my life.  I had been working really hard at watching what I was eating and was down 20 lbs.  I was living life exactly as the teachings of Jesus Christ tell me I should.  I had just turned in my mission papers.  Little did I know that not far off in the distant future the darkest time of my life was waiting for me...

I wish I could say that I'm completely over it, but I'm not.  I wish I could say I'm just as happy now as I was in this picture, but I'm not.  I wish I knew exactly how to make that happen, but I don't.  I guess that's just part of life, you appreciate the happy moments because of the sad ones; you're made stronger by the challenges that are inflicted upon you.  However, here's what I do know: without friends and family I am nothing, but even more than that without God I am nothing.  He has a plan for me, and I need to be humble enough to let it happen.  I wasn't supposed to go on a mission two years ago.  For everything there is a season. 

I'm just hoping that this season is mine, and I've got a pretty good feeling about it.  :)

Bored Out of My Mind...

What am I doing you might ask?  Sitting at the end of a long hallway in the Athletic Center of my JC.  Why am I doing this you might ask?  Because the campus radio station, for which I am Content Manager, is sponsoring a Battle of the Bands tonight, and someone has to sit down here and make sure no one gets into the classrooms, weight training areas, locker rooms, etc. (basically anywhere besides the main arena).  Why did I pick this job?  Because it would allow me to watch the BYU vs Gonzaga game uninterrupted. Perfect plan?  I thought so, until the NCAA's "March Madness on Demand" application decided to be a little b***ch.  (Am I allowed to use that word in reference to a basketball game of two Christian universities??  Lol.)  In short, now I'm super bored, and I keep updating the score of the game every few seconds, and it's no bueno.  At least I have my iPod to keep me company (but no Facebook!).  So to all my friends enjoying watching basketball right now:  I ENVY YOU...
