Writing Thinks Hears Says

The Grant family is a handful in itself. There was Curtis, who was the fatherly figure that the kids grew up with knowing, until he died in the 62nd Hunger games. There was Cassidy, the brother who is a bully. Cecil, the brother that has the most book smarts. Cindy, the sister who partied hard. Then, the oldest brother now, Colin. This is the story of a Grant boy who had to step up for the sake of the family.

Colin looks like a 16 year old boy who is a natural with lumber and wood. He has the big biceps, big chest, and big legs. A pretty muscular guy for his age. The brown hair that hangs messily down or up. Colin doesn't care much about his hair and tends to not do much except water it down when he has the time. Colin has a very distinctive look. The masculine face that has sharp features, such as his cheek bones and his chin. Colin has rough hands from making his wood art animals almost all day. People say he is quite handsome, but there is others who don't like how he looks.

Colin's closet isn't full at all there was barely anything in it. His normal outfit was around the front, a gray shirt or white shirt depending on what color he wanted, a pair of jeans, and then his shoes which stood together neatly in the corner of the closet. His warm clothes hang next to the other outfit. A sweatshirt, a t-shirt, jeans, and a beanie. On the floor were two pairs of shoes, his fancy pair and his every day pair. Colin has a necklace of a wooden bear that he keeps around his neck almost everyday. It's not very big, the bear that is.

The way that Colin thinks is a bit slower than most people. Even though Colin has a slow way of thinking, he isn't stupid. Colin is actually pretty smart, but most people don't see this because Colin is socially awkward. Colin is one of the nicest boys anybody will ever meet. The boy tends to look past people's faults and see just the good in them. Colin tends to be caring and listens to people talk about their issues or problems. He tries being a leader in situations, but usually ends up not leading because his social awkwardness gets in the way at those times. Colin used to be a go with the flow kind of guy, but now is trying to get stuff done for his siblings.

Colin has many personality flaws that are easy to spot, but some are rather hard to spot. His first big flaw is his social awkwardness, Colin doesn't really talk much and when he does it usually is stopped really short. Colin's next flaw is that he has panic attacks in big crowds cause he is claustrophobic. These panic attacks don't last long and most of the time, Colin only has to relax outside of the crowd. Colin will look past people's faults, but sometimes that ends up with Colin in bad situations. Colin isn't the best of leaders and tends to follow others, even though he wants to lead, which can end up with him in trouble a lot. Colin is fairly clumsy and always ends up with injuries from random things. The only thing he isn't clumsy at is when he makes his wooden animals.

Colin has a few goals in his life that he would want to complete. The first one is that he wants to get a job to help keep the family alive and not let them all down. The next one is to get over his claustrophobia and his panic attacks cause he hates the feeling of them. The next one is that Colin wants to not be as socially awkward and actually make friends for once in his life. Colin has a few fears that are pretty normal. He is claustrophobic and doesn't like small spaces or being lost in a giant crowd of people. Colin doesn't like arguing and violence, he would rather use his words than injure someone else.

Colin was born with his twin sister, Cynthia Grant. They are both the second oldest after Curtis. Colin at a young age was very dissociative and didn't talk to anyone, not even his mom, his sister and brother always knew what he wanted though normally, they still did to the present day. Colin wouldn't do much except sit in the yard or in his room. One day his brother decided that Colin should play with him and Cynthia. Colin was a bit shy at first throughout the games, but he did play and became a little more social toward his family members.

Colin was a shy kid in school and didn't talk to people, unless he had to talk. The worst thing for Colin to do was read in front of the whole class. They always had to read a passage from the story out loud. This was when Colin's panic attacks first started appearing. Colin once had to read out loud and ended up having a panic attack and passed out from the stress. After that incident, Colin was bullied for being awkward compared to the rest of the students at school. Colin was shoved into a locker and trapped there for a few hours before the person opened their locker. Colin began developing a fear of small spaces and crowds after being pushed around and shoved in lockers on a daily basis.

The early teenager years were the worst times for him. The bullying got worse and worse. It got so bad that Colin would pass out every time he saw one of the kids who picked on him. Colin never had the guts to face his bullies and his family was too busy to help him out with any of his problems. This was around the time that Colin began to do his wooden animals to keep calm and not panic. Then his other hobby came around when he was watching the guys from school playing some sort of game with a ball that he never understood. People watching became fun for Colin after seeing some of the funny people in the area.

Curtis was reaped soon after, and died in the games making Colin the oldest brother. Colin took the death the hardest since Curtis taught Colin how to be social to others. Colin has given up his hobbies and has been trying to find a perfect job for him. Colin has been keeping a watchful eye on Cecil and Cassidy to make sure there is no fighting. Colin has had to grow up a bit fast and be the adult of the family since their mother doesn't really care for them. Colin has had troubles in the past with bullies and phobias, but this was going to be his ultimate challenge for him. Colin Grant would have to become social.
