in LiveI wanted to be held very tight so I could not break. Even now, when people lean down to touch me, or hug me, or put a hand on my shoulder, I hold my breath. I turn my face. I want to cry. Wasted : A Memoir of Anorexia and BulimiaMarya Hornbacher

What makes a day worth living?
—
in LiveI haven’t been that productive in school today. Aside from taking my long test in Western Art History, all I did was sleep, eat, chat with friends, with very minimal studying in between. I thought I’d wasted a day, but I started to realize that today was one of those days when I feel like…

Reminiscing Singapore
—
in LiveI just received from the mail a card my friend from Singapore sent over a month ago. Yes, Philippine post sucks but I’m just glad it didn’t get lost. I can’t believe it’s been a year since I arrived in Singapore, met new friends, and had one of the best experiences with so many wonderful…

—
in LiveMy problem with the library is that if I try to stay longer inside, it just gets too cold for me. So I end up leaving after around 2 hours max, then I come back again. But if I go all dressed up for the lib (with pants, jacket, and all), going to class becomes…

awkward hair-growing stage
—
in LiveOne of the things I feel the frustration in is my hair. I just don’t know what to do with it, or how to style it. All I know is I’m growing it because the longest it ever got was a few inches below my shoulders. My bangs are wavy and my hair usually is…
