Thomas Winterton post 8

Fears: My life ending with regrets, I know all too well that any moment could be your last, and so a constant fear of mine is that if I do bite the dust early (God forbid) that I will feel that there are things in my life I could've done better and so on.

Annoyances: I'm a pretty mellow guy, not a lot bothers me except for moral/ social injustice, it bothers me so bad that if in about eight years or so you hear about some vigilante doing vigilante stuff, probably me.

Accomplishments: Don't really like to toot my own horn, fervent  believer that people should lay low and stick with the crowd until the moment best suites them to reveal their true aptitude for what ever skill is at question. Life is a competition, and the essence of surprise is a great tool.

Confusions: Why Hillary Clinton is not in jail.

Sorrows: My body failing me, I've had two knee surgeries in the past year and I will attempt to come back to sports this spring, with the amount of damage that has been wrought on my leg, I have a great insecurity about whether or not I will ever reach my potential.

Dreams: Get married, start a family, ACQUIRE VAST AMOUNTS OF CURRENCY.

Idiosyncrasies: YouTube, Halo, leaving the gym feeling like I need an ambulance.

Risks: Risks are a part of life. I accept that fact with open arms, they give us great experiences, they also give us bad ones... But how do we have great experiences with out having the bad ones first.

Beloved possessions, now and then: Batman related comics, wallet, cell phone, car keys.

(99) Problems: I want money, too busy to have a job, parents are tightwads. Physical therapy sucks like you wouldn't believe, A female ain't one

Sorrows: I was tired, sweat on my brow, muscles aching, vision blurry, heart pounding, breathe short, my legs screaming in protest as a scarlet pain shoots through my hamstrings and quadriceps, launching myself from a side-ways run into a forward sprint , I feel the cool wind caress my hot skin as I continued to accelerate towards my target. My body dumps adrenaline into my system for the coming contact, it felt as if I was going to explode from the energy that was manifesting it self in my limbs. The aches and pains were gone now, replaced by pure exhilaration. I feel invincible. Every muscle in my body tenses for the incoming collision. No collision came. The routine conflict was derailed by the most excruciating pain I've ever felt in my life. A nightmarish crunch rattles my being as an inferno of pain erupts from my knee, I tried to scream at first, all I heard was an extinguished breath from my mouth before my exhausted body was slammed into the ground by the enormous momentum generated from my sprint. Little did I know this was the beginning of a tribulation I still battle to this day.
