green and now yellow hair haven't haul Nick le has found things that he likes and dislikes about America He likes I the “Bigness" of America "You can go from wherever and get to wherever you want to be" lie feels that people arc able to achieve their goals because they receive praise unlike when the English achieve they arc put down because of envy lie doesn't like the way America seems to narrow itself He is frustrated with the way that you can sec every possible good in America but at the same time it has every pos- sible bad" He has found a difference in dat- you ing situations "In Amcrica-Ula- h ask girls out on dates If she says yes then you go to a movie bowling or a dance In England you meet a girl hang out for a hit generally and you Thompson a child" has made him who he is today His dad instilled in him a sense of music from an early age “We listened to a lot of '60s music From Sugar Bubble Gum classics to Bob Dylan Rollin’ Stones Beatles and good old country" His family didn’t have aTV source so music was their numher-on- e of entertainment His home was full of older people which brought him up in his head The first ten years of his life were wonderful "It was the most beautiful childhood anyone could want" Full of traveling living on a farm and in an ancient cottage These years caused him to he grounded These were “Followed by ten years of chaos” He feels he came out of it strangely innocent because the way he was done While coach Harper and his squad enjoyed the sun and warm weather of the Nevada atmosphere Coach Dean Gundlach and fellow squad members at the Colorado College Tournament had no such fun weather wise “The Blizzard of 97" as many arc calling it came out of nowhere to drop not only three and half feet of snow but also extreme complications on the tournament and its competitors Due to the severity of the storm some teams could not make the trip from neighboring slates Even Air Force Academy only 30 miles away had to stay home as travel was beyond dangerous Coach Gundlach commented on the severeness of the storm and his concern for safety In all his years of coaching he stated that he had never witnessed such a disaster at a tournament due to Mother Nature lie said "It was the worst you could barely drive and then no one was allowed on the roads It was too cold to go outside My tnind was more on the safety of the squad I'm grateful we arrived home safe and that we were able to stay out ofharms way" Though the weather was not in the tournaments favor competition still went forth In parliamentary debate CEU was represented well by Breezy Perry and Kelly Ireland who advanced to the octofinal round In individual events the team of Abranda Mudd and Jonny Thompson placed third in duo Mudd was a double semifinalist in poetry and prose reading Shane Chester was also a semifinalist in poetry In Overall sweepstakes CEU brought home second place in the Community College division Next the squad travels

else would steal my idea Actually It's not about the money It's about the idea itself or it is about nothing" He just wants to go where the world takes him I Ic wants people to remember him for the size of his heart "I want to be remembered for the fact that I loved people and that I loved life and I ate life When he was with people he tried to bring them up a level I want to be remembered for not letting life drip away I want people lo not do anything by half and to choose their own path Like if you love someone love them all the way don't be putting conditions down Live your own life but be aware that we all end up in the same place the journey is everything so how are you gonna get there Forensics represented well in Colorado and Nevada This past weekend the College of Eastern Utah’sspccchand debate squad took part in two different tournaments one in the sun and the other in the snow Debate Coach Chris I larpcr along with two CEDA debate teams traveled to Nevada to take part in the University of Nevada at Las Vegas Tournament For CEDA debate this was (he most prestigious tournament of the year thus far as the tournament had representation from some of the top schools
