Well, I do track, and the adrenaline rush is addictive. It starts the morning of the meet, and it sucks until I get in my blocks.
When the dude says set, my fear disapears and my eyes narrow: I turn badass.
The adrenaline pumps- which is a great feeling.
In fact, after running 5 races, and then immediately having to run a 400 (in under 53 seconds to at least place) adrenaline is all I have.

Has anyone run a 400 before? If you haven't, try and feel absolute misery.

Every single muscle of your body screams for you to stop, and yet you have to run another 8th of a mile...
You can barely move your arms even...

If you think I'm just whining- go out to a track and run a 400. And try to run it in 51.6 seconds.
And since I have asthma, I stagger off the track and collapse on the grass.

Did I mention that since I have adrenaline pumping through me so much and so hard that I'm forecasted to get a stomach tumor during college?

(Adrenaline and stress releases more HCL into your stomach)


I know what you mean.

I used to be 1st in the state for swimming. (in Arizona - my name's Chris Haight - look it up if you don't believe me) Since breathing causes drag I'd sometimes go the entire 25/24 second race without breathing once.

This causes an intense pain through your entire body. Your body screams at you to stop, to breathe, but I pushed myself every time.

So, being a fellow (well, EX racer - I quit... I may have been damn good at it, but I honestly hate swimming) racer, I know what you mean when you talk about the rush you get RIGHT when you hear "Racers, take your marks."

Anyway, back on topic: I'm not completely devoid of powerful emotions. I've had them before. Nor am I totally cold – feel emotions all the time, just they’re rarely powerful.

Anyway, I have a few powerful emotions stories. Get me in a good, thoughtful mood I might tell you one. Some of them have people doubting their truth – and I can’t blame them. I have been fortunate to have a very, very interesting life.

Looks like you people are having fun. lol

  • 07.19.2004 10:09 PM PDT

I'll be on my own side.

hatred=dont like it,but have a lot of it
anger=have a lot of that too
love=for a very special person
calm=most of the time
cynicism=not really an emotion,but i have a lot of that too


i dont like emotional moments.they get stuck in my head,and i end up recounting them for ages and that usually leads to more anger and depression.

after my grandpa died,i lost almost all emotional feeling,so not much really bothers me,but the occasional emotional moment happens,and i dont like them.

Interesting life huh? I have one too. we can exchange info, oy, but that would not be that good, now would it? Giving out personal info? Well, we do it all the time.


I too belive some may be doubting their truth, but at least it's on topic.

Pretty much the same thing here, except the girlfriend changes to boyfriend.

Hehehe...this is a cool thread.

The best moment in my life was when I got into a school talent recital thingie that I really wanted to be in badly, and never got in for the first two years of Junior High (out here in Utah we have three years in Junior High, even though your last year is your Freshman year in HS). When I made it in I felt so awesome, even though the song we did was one of the most overplayed songs of all time (Time of Your Life by Green Day...it's still a great song, though).

The worst moment of my life...I dunno. I haven't really had a bunch of bad experiences yet. I'll have to say it was probably when I finally realized that the girl who I last went out with and was madly in love with wasn't the sweet and awesome girl I once thought she was, nor was she willing to be a good girlfriend anymore. That broke my heart.

Yeah, I'll admit it. I can get emotional sometimes, but I usually have the common sense not to show it in public. I usually vent them by either writing some music or talking about it with my friends.

Sorry all you cat lovers, but I don't really have much sympathy for ya. I can't say that I've ever had a pet that I really cared for, except for the dog we have right now. She's the best pet we've ever had, and I'd probably be really sad if she got run over or something. Plus, I'm more of a dog person anyways :D

Oh, yeah, I'm not one of those kids who likes to be afraid. Even though you're on the edge of your seat, I hate the moment when the fear dawns on you. I just hate the weird feeling I get in my gut. However, I love the feeling you get when you're in what you used to think was a scary situation, but you've either been through it enough or you're confident enough in yourself that you just kinda go "BRING IT ON!!!!" and generally feel tough and badass. Like when I play night games...I'm like the master of blending in with shadows and stuff. And I love being sneaky. It makes me feel like I'm Sam Fisher from Splinter Cell, weird as that sounds.

I love cats. One of 'em got ran over when it was only a few months old. I was sooo sad.
Not even Halo 2 can make up for it.

I'd be way sad if my little doggy got ran over. She's so cute and sweet! But I'd get over it and Halo 2 would just add sheer happiness and meaning into my life that would be missing from lack of my dog, so it would be cool. :P

Emotions can be very powerful, but at the same time can become very dangerous, in a sense, depending on how you look at it. I say this because the more powerful your emotiones are, generally the less control you have over yourself. Think about it. If you get mad enough at somebody, all of a sudden nothing else matters, all you see is their face and you just have to beat the living -blam!- out of them. When you are scared to the point where you couldn't BE anymore scared, a reflexive action occurs. Some people will run, others will scream and piss their pants, etc etc etc.

Now, having said that, emotions are also integral to our lives. They add flavour and personality to people and situations, and are capable of bringing out the best (and worst) in people.

I can't say as I recall a specific moment in my life which was emotionally more significant than any other number of moments. I don't really consider myself a non-emotional person, I just try to keep it on the inside. I find it a lot easier to get angry while I'm playing sports, though (I play football, hockey, wrestling and rugby), especially when the other team is playing dirty or someone on my team is playing like -blam!- when they can do better.

Oh, by the way, my sincere condolences to all of you who have lost your pets. I have not had the misfortune to lose anyone (including pets) significant in my life thus far (I'm 16), but I do have a dog, and have some semblance of the anguish such a tragic event would create.

I love the emotion of fear. Not the type of fear you get from a scary movie or game (hate that fear since it's not real) But the fear of being caught or getting hurt. (That's why I love amusement parks)

Like this one time (last month) I slept over at my friends house with a couple of my other friends. We played Ding Dong Ditch (I know it's stupid and immature, but boy did we get a rush) We got to the top of the apartment building, counted to 3, and ran down all 7 floors ringing every door bell on the way down with my friends. Then we almost got caught by security. Phew, hard work that was. But the thing is, is that I was terrified of being caught. That's the fear I like, not that fake, "O my God we are going to get eaten alive by a girl that walks out of a TV!"

I am not that emotional, but the best way I play sports or anything competitive, is to get completely pissed at the other team. Thats why in sports I get taken out alot for fouls. : )

I also like the emotion of love (No i'm not -blam!- or in any way metro-se><ual) I just like that uplifting feeling and adrenaline rush of getting kissed, or things of that nature ; )


Peace

The most scariest thing that ever happened to me was my neighbors dog bit me in the face. I needed 50 stitches, the bites were on the inside part of my nose right next to my eye, two were above my right eye parallel to each other, and another puncture on my forehead. How I never lost my eye, I will never know. When I went to school the next day the kids said that I looked like a guy from the movie The Living Dead.
