I want to stop eating again. I want to stick my fingers down my throat and throw up every time I've eaten, so I don't get any of the calories. I want to lose weight. I want to be thin. But I don't do it. I'm too old for this stuff, I'm 20 years old. I'm supposed to take myself and my life seriously now, and stop thinking things I know will make

Okay, this is going to sound stupid and ummm...I can't think of the other word (you'd be at a loss for words too if you just spent the last couple of hours reading really awful papers that say the same thing over and over again). But being really thin is not all it's cracked up to be. You're cold all the time. You can't sit on anyone's lap because you have a boney butt. You get mocked because people think it's okay to mock someone's weight as long as they aren't overweight. And it's uncomfortable to have no padding. Not to mention all the other health issues that I'm sure Jen could attest to. As for why people want what is bad for them...I just don't know! It's a bit like my rant about why people smoke, isn't it? I guess that is a question you'll have to ask yourself, Ms. Psychology Major. :)

Good luck with your party tonight. And with the upcoming party. I loved Stu's assessment of that outfit. That was classic Stu. I'm not sure that is what was meant by 'someone you admire'...but I'm ssuming it is a Halloween thing, so it'll work.

Sorry, I've never heard of your singer.

Hang tight, Kat. Keep your stick on the ice.

See, that's it, I KNOW how cold and painful being too thin is. I know what it does to your health. And part of me wants to be fit and healthy, but definitely not skin and bones, but I can't get rid of the voice telling me I really shouldn't eat. Even though I know how bad it is for me, even though I know losing weight could never make me happier. It's so stupid. And it's driving me insane.

It's a kind-of-Halloween thing, and I'm sure it'll work. Actually the important thing is that you dress up, do something funny, not exactly how well it fits the theme. And I'm not exactly sure what is meant by "Someone you admire", either. But I'm actually quite confident that it'll be alright.

I really considered being a strawberry tart. I found a really cute costume. But how can you possibly admire strawberry tarts? You can like them, but admire them?

You know what'd be funny? Dressing up as Freud and pretending to psychoanalyse people. I don't think any of us admire Freud, quite on the contrary most people think he was a male chauvinist pig, who was really full of it, but that'd just make it even more funny.
