Itโ€™s easy for others to describe her โ€“ Winslow is incapable of creating a three-dimensional second personality, after all, so there are cracks. When others see her, they see the typical jock. Her mind seems empty to others; Winslow projects an uncaring stupidity so others donโ€™t question her or bother her with unneeded arguments or discussions. She comes off as a complete meathead with interests in nothing but boxing, wrestling, and martial arts. In order to embrace such a persona, Winslow often incorporates a seventh grade humor โ€œthatโ€™s what she saidโ€ and crude, yet misinformed, sex jokes. Winslow tends to act arrogantly and impulsively to subscribe herself to the jock stereotype. The only real trait in the faux personality is her hot-headed, temperamental nature. Winslow doesnโ€™t take well to other people wronging her and her temper has a tendency to get incredibly hot in an incredible amount of time. She is incapable of letting it simmer, but instead lashes out the moment she is angered. Winslow reacts in most situations aggressively โ€“ when sad or upset, Winslow would rather respond with heated anger and sharp words than depraved tears and desolation. Other than her love of martial arts and temperament, the rest of such a projected personality is utterly fake โ€“ almost hilariously so. If people knew, many would ask why she pretends as such. Is it to keep her heart guarded? Is it out of a pure need to manipulate others? No, itโ€™s much more simple than that. Winslow is a complete and unsalvageable nerd. While she acts like a total moron, Winslow is rather educated. Intelligent or smart is the wrong word to use in regards to her because she is not naturally so โ€“ her level of education is the fruit of labor. Winslow is a scholarly woman who likes to spend her time learning and thoroughly picking a part every bit of information she can find. If Winslow wishes to have an opinion on a certain subject, she researches that subject till her fingers are cramping and cut! In addition, she is a rather thorough person, overall. Winslow diligently and carefully sorts through all the facts, assesses all the evidence, and measures all the risks before doing anything. As a nice compliment to such a knowledge-seeking personality, Winslow often has to have a dedicated and diligent mind. Matter of fact, Winslow is one of the hardest working people her friends have ever known โ€“ she will work herself to death if she could (and many of her friends back home predicted that she will become a workaholic in the future). She will spend hours making sure she reaches her goals and often has to be dragged away from whatever she is currently working on. However, she has plenty of time to do work considering she is intensely introverted and will become emotionally distressed if around a group of people for more than a few hours at a time. Of course she is not without her bad traits. Other than being temperamental, Winslow is rather apathetic towards otherโ€™s plights when it does not directly involve her. She tends to live life with a lack of vigor, only going through the motions. She is rather bored with the modern world and spends her head tucked between the pages of a fantasy book entailing magical adventures. As it is, though she holds many opinions, she has no care of arguing for them or changing othersโ€™ minds to see it from her side. Furthermore, Winslow lives an inhibited life โ€“ tightly controlled with careful calculations and a life of no risks. Winslow is a control freak that has to have everything in between her fingers because surprises make her extremely nervous and being taken aback is unsettling for her. She enjoys knowing that everything is orderly and predictable โ€“ which, perhaps, is why her life is so boring, because she knows everything that is going to happen. Unfortunately for those who do know her, they will often have to deal with her rather morose personality. Winslow is a moody teenager who will have moments of melancholy and somedays cannot seem to get out of bed. She is rather pessimistic and has a hard time seeing the good in anything! But, what sheโ€™s really ashamed of, is her level of geekiness. Winslow embraces the life of a fangirl โ€“ she must know everything about the things she enjoys and, opposite of her personality, becomes rather passionate and excited about her literary wanderings and movie choices. She overanalyzes books and uses such forms of entertainments as an escape from her daily life. Cosplay is a natural step in life for her and she could talk hours, days, years about hobbits and house elves.

She was born in a small town near Mobile, Alabama to parents that have never left the state, let alone the country. They grew up small town, and lived small town. Winslowโ€™s parents were high school sweethearts that made the mistake of marrying too soon and grew up hating each other. Around nineteen years old, Winslowโ€™s mother gave birth to her which ruined her dreams of going to college and obtaining a career ([s]or maybe it was her lack of motivation and a ready excuse that allowed Winslowโ€™s mother to settle[/s]). Winslowโ€™s mother settled as a waitress while Winslowโ€™s father made money through his mechanic career. As the marriage went on, Winslowโ€™s mother and father realized they hated each other and divorced like most high school sweethearts. After the divorce, Winslowโ€™s mother picked up other recreational activities to fill the time that, before, had been used to argue with her husband. Such activities being alcohol, sex, and drugs. Though Winslow knew her mother loved her, her mother slowly was engulfed by addiction and soon loss functionality in regular day life. She was fired from her job after coming blackout drunk and she could no longer support her daughter. They lived day to day on the small amount of child support that Winslowโ€™s father sent in. When Winslow was twelve, she got a job at a restaurant where she was paid under the table (tax free, thankfully) because she was too young. However, when Winslowโ€™s mother attempted to pick up Winslow from school while intoxicated, the schoolโ€™s administration called child services. In court, Winslowโ€™s mother was seen as unfit as Winslowโ€™s guardian and her daughter was put into the foster system. For a couple of months, Winslow bounced around in the foster system โ€“ house to house. However, when Winslowโ€™s mother did not clean up her act, months turned to years and Winslow became a teenager. Of course, the two kept in touch as much as they could and had supervised visits; but it wasnโ€™t enough for the lonely Winslow. She grew up roughly, always feeling unwanted by her mother, father, and all the foster families that took her in and turned her back over. Eventually, Winslow came to the Smith family. They were a generic, suburban family that was taking in a foster child for the first time. However, Winslow grew on them and they on her, so they stayed together for quite a while (they would have adopted her, but Winslow didnโ€™t want that because of her hope of her mother coming back for her). They bought her a computer, gave her the nicest clothes they could, and even sent her to Camp Liberty over the summer. Maybe it's because they are so good to her that Winslow hasn't come out of the closet yet; she's afraid that the extremely conservative family will send her back like everyone else has.

Itโ€™s easy for others to describe her โ€“ Winslow is incapable of creating a three-dimensional second personality, after all, so there are cracks. When others see her, they see the typical jock. Her mind seems empty to others; Winslow projects an uncaring stupidity so others donโ€™t question her or bother her with unneeded arguments or discussions. She comes off as a complete meathead with interests in nothing but boxing, wrestling, and martial arts. In order to embrace such a persona, Winslow often incorporates a seventh grade humor โ€œthatโ€™s what she saidโ€ and crude, yet misinformed, sex jokes. Winslow tends to act arrogantly and impulsively to subscribe herself to the jock stereotype. The only real trait in the faux personality is her hot-headed, temperamental nature. Winslow doesnโ€™t take well to other people wronging her and her temper has a tendency to get incredibly hot in an incredible amount of time. She is incapable of letting it simmer, but instead lashes out the moment she is angered. Winslow reacts in most situations aggressively โ€“ when sad or upset, Winslow would rather respond with heated anger and sharp words than depraved tears and desolation. Other than her love of martial arts and temperament, the rest of such a projected personality is utterly fake โ€“ almost hilariously so. If people knew, many would ask why she pretends as such. Is it to keep her heart guarded? Is it out of a pure need to manipulate others? No, itโ€™s much more simple than that. Winslow is a complete and unsalvageable nerd. While she acts like a total moron, Winslow is rather educated. Intelligent or smart is the wrong word to use in regards to her because she is not naturally so โ€“ her level of education is the fruit of labor. Winslow is a scholarly woman who likes to spend her time learning and thoroughly picking a part every bit of information she can find. If Winslow wishes to have an opinion on a certain subject, she researches that subject till her fingers are cramping and cut! In addition, she is a rather thorough person, overall. Winslow diligently and carefully sorts through all the facts, assesses all the evidence, and measures all the risks before doing anything. As a nice compliment to such a knowledge-seeking personality, Winslow often has to have a dedicated and diligent mind. Matter of fact, Winslow is one of the hardest working people her friends have ever known โ€“ she will work herself to death if she could (and many of her friends back home predicted that she will become a workaholic in the future). She will spend hours making sure she reaches her goals and often has to be dragged away from whatever she is currently working on. However, she has plenty of time to do work considering she is intensely introverted and will become emotionally distressed if around a group of people for more than a few hours at a time. Of course she is not without her bad traits. Other than being temperamental, Winslow is rather apathetic towards otherโ€™s plights when it does not directly involve her. She tends to live life with a lack of vigor, only going through the motions. She is rather bored with the modern world and spends her head tucked between the pages of a fantasy book entailing magical adventures. As it is, though she holds many opinions, she has no care of arguing for them or changing othersโ€™ minds to see it from her side. Furthermore, Winslow lives an inhibited life โ€“ tightly controlled with careful calculations and a life of no risks. Winslow is a control freak that has to have everything in between her fingers because surprises make her extremely nervous and being taken aback is unsettling for her. She enjoys knowing that everything is orderly and predictable โ€“ which, perhaps, is why her life is so boring, because she knows everything that is going to happen. Unfortunately for those who do know her, they will often have to deal with her rather morose personality. Winslow is a moody teenager who will have moments of melancholy and somedays cannot seem to get out of bed. She is rather pessimistic and has a hard time seeing the good in anything! But, what sheโ€™s really ashamed of, is her level of geekiness. Winslow embraces the life of a fangirl โ€“ she must know everything about the things she enjoys and, opposite of her personality, becomes rather passionate and excited about her literary wanderings and movie choices. She overanalyzes books and uses such forms of entertainments as an escape from her daily life. Cosplay is a natural step in life for her and she could talk hours, days, years about hobbits and house elves.

She was born in a small town near Mobile, Alabama to parents that have never left the state, let alone the country. They grew up small town, and lived small town. Winslowโ€™s parents were high school sweethearts that made the mistake of marrying too soon and grew up hating each other. Around nineteen years old, Winslowโ€™s mother gave birth to her which ruined her dreams of going to college and obtaining a career ([s]or maybe it was her lack of motivation and a ready excuse that allowed Winslowโ€™s mother to settle[/s]). Winslowโ€™s mother settled as a waitress while Winslowโ€™s father made money through his mechanic career. As the marriage went on, Winslowโ€™s mother and father realized they hated each other and divorced like most high school sweethearts. After the divorce, Winslowโ€™s mother picked up other recreational activities to fill the time that, before, had been used to argue with her husband. Such activities being alcohol, sex, and drugs. Though Winslow knew her mother loved her, her mother slowly was engulfed by addiction and soon loss functionality in regular day life. She was fired from her job after coming blackout drunk and she could no longer support her daughter. They lived day to day on the small amount of child support that Winslowโ€™s father sent in. When Winslow was twelve, she got a job at a restaurant where she was paid under the table (tax free, thankfully) because she was too young. However, when Winslowโ€™s mother attempted to pick up Winslow from school while intoxicated, the schoolโ€™s administration called child services. In court, Winslowโ€™s mother was seen as unfit as Winslowโ€™s guardian and her daughter was put into the foster system. For a couple of months, Winslow bounced around in the foster system โ€“ house to house. However, when Winslowโ€™s mother did not clean up her act, months turned to years and Winslow became a teenager. Of course, the two kept in touch as much as they could and had supervised visits; but it wasnโ€™t enough for the lonely Winslow. She grew up roughly, always feeling unwanted by her mother, father, and all the foster families that took her in and turned her back over. Eventually, Winslow came to the Smith family. They were a generic, suburban family that was taking in a foster child for the first time. However, Winslow grew on them and they on her, so they stayed together for quite a while (they would have adopted her, but Winslow didnโ€™t want that because of her hope of her mother coming back for her). They bought her a computer, gave her the nicest clothes they could, and even sent her to Camp Liberty over the summer. Maybe it's because they are so good to her that Winslow hasn't come out of the closet yet; she's afraid that the extremely conservative family will send her back like everyone else has.
