Kulingalira Kupambana
Zamkati
Monga wopikisana nawo pampikisano wokongola ndili wachinyamata komanso wokondwerera sukulu yasekondale, sindinaganize kuti ndidzakhala ndi vuto lolemera. Pofika zaka zapakati pa 20s, ndidasiya koleji, ndinali ndi ana awiri ndipo ndinali wolemera kwambiri mapaundi 225. Achibale ndi abwenzi ananena kuti, "Ngati mutachepetsa thupi, mungakhale wokongola" kapena "Muli ndi nkhope yokongola." Mawu awa adandipangitsa kukhumudwa, choncho ndidadya kwambiri. Ndinayesera kuonda podzisala ndi njala kapena kulowa nawo magulu ochepetsa kunenepa, koma sindinachite bwino ndikumitsa zowawa zanga m'mabokosi amakeke achokoleti. Pambuyo pake ndinavomereza kuti ndiyenera kukhala ndi thupi langa lonenepa kwambiri kwa moyo wanga wonse.
Chakumapeto kwa chaka chimenecho, ndinabwerera ku koleji kukapeza digiri ya unamwino. Kupita kusukulu, komanso kulera ana awiri osakwana zaka 3, zinali zopanikiza kwambiri, motero ndidayamba kudya kwambiri. Ndinkadya chakudya chosachedwa msanga chifukwa chinali chosavuta kukhala mmoyo wopanikiza. Ndinalowa m’gulu la zachipatala kwa miyezi itatu, koma ndinasiya chifukwa ndinali wotanganidwa kwambiri. Ndidamaliza sukulu ya unamwino patatha zaka zitatu ndikulemera 225. Kenako ndidakhala ngati namwino wamtima pachipatala, ndidakwaniritsa maloto anga, koma ndimadana ndi mawonekedwe anga pakalilole. Ndinkavutika maganizo ndipo nthawi zambiri sindinkapita kokayenda limodzi ndi banja langa kumene ndinkayenera kuvala kabudula kapena kusambira. Nditakwanitsa zaka 30, ndidadziyang'ana pagalasi ndikudziwona ndekha wonenepa kwambiri komanso wopanda mphamvu. Ndinazindikira kuti ndiyenera kusintha momwe ndimadyera komanso kuchita masewera olimbitsa thupi.
Ndidayamba kuyenda mtunda woyenda mozungulira dera langa madzulo pomwe amuna anga amawawona ana. (Ngati sanapezeke, anawo anagwirizana nane pa ma skate awo apamzere.) Posakhalitsa ndinawonjezera mtunda wanga kufika makilomita aŵiri patsiku. Ndidachepetsa mafuta pachakudya changa m'malo mwa mpiru m'malo mwa mayonesi, yogurt wachisanu wa ayisikilimu, ndi salsa wothira. Ndinakonza zakudya zabwino zomwe ndimakonda. Ndikamadya ku lesitilanti, ndimapanga zakudya zopatsa thanzi monga mbatata zophika zopanda mafuta m'malo mwa "ntchito," komanso nkhuku yokazinga m'malo mwa steak. Ndataya mapaundi 10 m'miyezi isanu ndi umodzi. Ndinapitiliza kuchita masewera olimbitsa thupi pafupipafupi ndipo ndinayamba kukula kuyambira 18 mpaka 8, cholinga changa, chaka chotsatira.
Poyamba, zinali zovuta kuti mwamuna wanga azolowere kusintha kwa kadyedwe kathu, koma atandiona ndikuchepera thupi, adayamba kundithandizira. Wataya mapaundi 50 ndipo akuwoneka bwino.
Chaka chatha ndinachita nawo mpikisano wa kukongola koyamba kuyambira ndili wachinyamata. Ndinazichita mwachisangalalo ndipo sindimayembekezera kuti ndipambana wachiwiri. Kuyambira pamenepo, ndakhala ndikuchita nawo ziwonetsero zina ziwiri, kuphatikiza Mayi Tennessee USA, ndikupambana wachiwiri nthawi iliyonse.
Kuonda kwanga kwandipangitsa kudzimva bwino. Nthawi yochepa yomwe ndimakhala mu masewera olimbitsa thupi mlungu uliwonse ndi yabwino mphindi iliyonse ndikawona kuti imandipangitsa kukhala mayi wabwino komanso munthu wabwino.
