Back and Stronger

I haven't posted for ages, but that's mainly due to other things in my life.
I have entered numerous free OTB tournaments, and I am now considered one of the strongest players in the city after finishing 1st in all of them. I need improvement, though. I have noticed I am seemingly weak in endgames and have actually won my tournaments through quick attacking play, which usually results in middlegame mates.
I know I can't play like this all the time, so I have studied a lot on defensive and strategic play. I am now fluent in 1.e4 and 1.d4 openings and have pretty much memorised the plan behind each opening. I have studied a lot of the Sicilian Defence, while Kings Indian and The Sniper have also appealed to me.
To sum up my time off here:
Winning Trophies
Studying
Practising
