                <description><![CDATA[ so, i will be here at Nutmeg for the full year. I'll be coming home for about a week and a half to celebrate my birthday and pack all of my stuff.<br />
<br />
They aren't allowing me to perform in the summer showcase...not that i really care. it would be a waste of money for my family to pay, and I know I am too heavy and untrained to be someone that they 'showcase'.<br />
<br />
oh well.<br />
<br />
Life here is alright, i guess it goes towards my goals...<br />
<br />
its quiet and something im not used to at all. everyone is very disciplined.<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Managed to loose a bit of the weight that I had gained during the 2 week program. literally I had gained about 5 pounds in just two weeks and Im having a really hard time fixing it. Im down two pounds, so another 3 and i'll be back where I started. its interresting, but the girl who is an RA is also somewhat Ana, and the guy RA is also. they say that most of the students are, and thats just the way the dance world is.<br />
<br />
huh.<br />
<br />
anyways, had an 'exciting' visit to the ER tonight, the girl I was just talking about banged her head really hard on her bunk bed, and got a concussion, she's home now and asleep, but Im now offically in charge of her for the next day and tonight.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ So I heard on the news that several people in the US are involved in a gas boycott tomorrow. May 15th. The deal is that you agree not to go into a gas station or fill up your gas tomorrow at all. I'll be doing this also, so perhaps we can get some lower gas prices for a bit at least. If you want to join me, or perhaps even mention this to your families?? *hint hint wink wink* it would be interresting to say the least.<br />
<br />
this weekend is jam packed, visiting my friends, pointe shoe fittings, parteh! Join me as I actually get a social life!<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ So first things first....<br />
<br />
THE JOB....yeah I work at a clothing store in the outlet mall here. paid 9 bucks an hour and no commission, *shrug* thats not the big deal for me. what is...is this. The newly re-enfourced dress code. either khaki pants or jeans fom the store brand...alright if they werent around 70 dollars a pair. then the shoes...either the brand shoes...or I get myself a pair of heals or fancy ballet flats...I wont do either of the three, the store brand costs around 100-80 bucks and then the other two choices dont offer enough support. im just thinking screw it, im leaving in about 2 1/2 weeks anyways.<br />
<br />
so annoying though.<br />
<br />
<br />
THE DATE....hmm what to say about this *swt*<br />
<br />
went to have dinner with my aunt and cousin...of course I showed up late because i had to run some errands and didnt know they had left until I got home >.< and then they started telling me about how the server was really cute. yeah two older women telling me these things. hehehe so he serves me dinner...ack!! i forgot my leftovers!!! just realized...T_T well anyways, then my aunt is all, we're going to see spiderman 3 on thursday do you want to join us? she made me give him my number...and yeah, now I have a date!! really random and odd but I do. we'll see how this all plays out.<br />

<br />
I was so lonely, and I know I do this all the time....but I got myself a black bear hamster!! I named her Giselle, after a famous ballet role. She has the sweetest, big ears and little stub tail! *Cuddles*<br />
<br />
Im sorta annoyed though because I've weighed 126 for the past two weeks. what a bummer.<br />
<br />
rock on everyone<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Long time no see peoples, just a small update.<br />
<br />
Yes I'm alive.<br />
<br />
I got into Nutmeg for the summer.<br />
<br />
umm...well what is there to say? I have a sore throat but thats normal allergies.<br />
Been trying to get by on just one job, rather difficult but what can you say, yeah?<br />
<br />
Earlier today I waited in line for an oil change for my car for about 2 hours, and then the clerk didnt even give me all of my change.<br />
<br />
eating sushi tonight, where I go regularly because the Korean sushi chef is very cute and always recognizes me and actually remembers things that I talk to him about compared to  everyone else in my life,...he gave me a green tea ice cream on the house and told me i didnt need to worry about a tip.<br />
 I dont know what to think about that. he's so super cute, but I cant help but feel inadequate and very childish...I do like him a lot but how do I know if he was being just nice or is actually interrested. i'd hate to take it as more than it actually is...<br />
<br />
yea thats about it.<br />
<br />
Cheers Duckies <br />
<br />
----------------------<br />
I wanna make you happy...<br />
But I've fallen<br />
I'm sorry<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ OK so this is the skinny<br />
<br />
audition was canceled today, because of weather. when I called to ask if they were rescheduling it, the receptionist told me, in basically not so plain words, just to fuc* off. well excuse me.<br />
<br />
then I get a call for work and again, my hours have been dropped because of this snow.<br />
<br />
I call my mom, thinking to get some sympathy, but all she does is tell me to be a grown up, that this is life...and she even told me that I NEEDED the extra time to prepare for my audition.<br />
<br />
I don't understand why...i put effort in to keep my family relationship strong and they just totally blow me off....what is it? the fact that I moved away? thats some sick shit....fine then, you wanna isolate me and make me feel like the most worthless person on the planet, go right ahead. The truth of the matter is, i think my whole family is selfish, narrow minded, and wholly unseeing of who I am.<br />
<br />
...its just...god is it so bad to want attention and love from those you depend on?<br />
---------<br />
on another point...i called, I sang happy birthday, i just want to know if you got it...do I have the right number?<br />
<br />
nothing is going right.<br />
<br />
---------<br />
month long fast begins tomorrow. Im not going to let myself be weak any longer...its all people see when they look at me and im sick of it.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
1st day of work went well, but I dont have money to buy work clothes there. >.<<br />
<br />
Ballet is going so so. everyone is so much better than I am..as always. I feel like im stuck in place while everyone is speeding forward all around me. im loosing everything, and gaining nothing but pain and hunger in return<br />
<br />
the sad thing is, it feels good, since I haven't felt anything real in so long.<br />
<br />
Laxatives hurt...thats my rant of the day >.<<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ They always say they're concerned about me, about my health, when all they want to do is control me. They want to pin me down and force-feed me with lies, with what they call love. Like prisoners everywhere, all I have left is the power to refuse...<br />
<br />
<br />
-------------------------------------<br />
<br />
the move was good, and both my interviews went well, i took the job at chico's and will be making 8.50 an hour, full time. so that means I get benefits too. I feel like this is going to be a fun job, at least compared to others but i have to wear the clothing...i'll need to find something in their sizes. I'd fit into their 0, normaly a 4-6 in womens.<br />
<br />
again with the food thing...dont read if you dont wanna hear about it kk? ^^<br />
<br />
i've realized whenever i eat, that my stomach bubbles out...i cant eat before my audition then, because I want clean, pure lines. Right now, i can feel the grinding beginning in my stomach, because of laxies...>.> at least their less painful then purging, i spit up some blood the other day...but i dont care, not now. not with my life on the brink of either a future or a would be non-existance.<br />
<br />
 123...its odd now, that I look back on this, how easily I've slipped into this. they say that those that get ana are already pre-disposed, self concious, and insecure most of the time. its understandable. I can see my hip bones slightly, but all I CAN see is the fat sitting above them, making them ugly to me. Nothing is perfect to me in my eyes anymore...the only thing I can say is alright for the dance world is my hyper extension in my knees. everything else is a blight...enough of this, I want it all badly enough, i'll do what it takes, and if that means nearly passing out, then so be it. I dont care about the consequences any more, because Im tired of seeing nothing, BUT the bad.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ hate my family so much. They always have to show me how badly I screw up, and then tell me that im an adult and should be able to do things on my own...if only they'd just leave me alone for once...<br />
<br />
Im moving to leesburg hopefully on wednesday, if my cat is ok after his surgery...-_- good I hate having things that hold me back, and now my grandmother is saying that i need to wait an extra day just to make sure there are no complications...wtf, its bad enough having to wait 3 days...thats just bs....and I have no place to take him...its like she's being unhelpful on purpose because im getting the hell up away from her and her control issues...i mean the reason im moving atm is to get ready for nutmeg's audition in two weeks...and she kept on asking me when I hadnt told her that i was moving, "do you really want nutmeg?" the answer is obviously yes.. the reason im switching schools...but now that she knows...i dont think she really cares about nutmeg...w/e that bitch.<br />
<br />
so i know this music video is sasu x naru from naruto but its very cool. check it out ^^<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ so i decided to not call back later today about the job at claires...I feel as if I would be setting myself up for a pretty rough time if I took it...I mean I really do have enough on my plate as it is...maybe I mentioned this earlier but this whole weight thing is beginning to take me over...I hate to say it but its what I think about...its becoming me in a way, and I really didnt think that it would happen ever...that I would become so controlling of this.<br />
<br />
Im tired of people telling me what to do and feeling so huge...yet so insignificant. I dont want to let go of it tho. its like the only comfort I have.<br />
<br />
fasted today, I can tell tomorrow will be painful, because already I feel weak and light headed...but that lets me know that its working, that Im succeeding and the scale says so too...this morning I was 127 and now Im 124.6...its amazing how just flushing your body of all those toxins and left overs lightens you...normally on a fast your supposed to loose around 1 pound a day if your metabolism can handle it...I think that the reason I lost that much so quickly is because I really had eaten a lot the day before...<br />
<br />
popcorn n yogurt n cereal n not half enough water....<br />
<br />
so just having fluids really did clean my system...lol you know whats funny, i just realized that some people think that anorexics never eat..that they starve themselves all the time...I do eat tho, suki can attest to that lol...sometimes I can forget, and its warm and filling as I eat it...but then once im finished the guilt sets in...and everything inside me is like a lead weight holding me down, suffocating me i guess thats how i would describe it...<br />
<br />
anyways...im quite proud of my loss today. i also just noticed that when I press my knees together I have a small sliver of air between my thighs...now that makes me super proud!! i checked online yesterday, and the average weight of someone who is 5'4" is like 115-120...so im still not even anywhere near unhealthy in that sense...but still its horrifying to look in the mirror and see myself...i hate that in ballet class now.<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=P" title="=P (Razz)" /> came back to my home today after my week visiting my family. Its nice to be home, but I had an interview at claires....bleh, im such a looser, I was so tired and starting my period and all that 'great stuff' that I actually started crying!!! OMG<br />
<br />
....it was horrifying. the manager rescheduled me for wed...which is nice of her, i felt absolutly lame and worthless still do actually.<br />
<br />
I think I should just go look for a job waiting tables. better money anyways.<br />
<br />
tomorrow I start a fruit juice detox. its only supposed to last two days, and since its my first one i'll stick with that. Its also a really good opportunity because I have the house to myself for those two days.<br />
<br />
tomorrow is also casting for our spring ballet performance. *sigh*<br />
<br />
..............................<br />
<br />
EDIT--<br />
<br />
Yes...I have been tagged....-_- lol by suki-nee-chan <a href="http://x8sukichan8x.deviantart.com/"><img class="avatar" src="http://a.deviantart.com/avatars/x/8/x8sukichan8x.jpg" width="50" height="50" alt="" title="x8sukichan8x" /></a><br />
<br />
problem is there arent that many things about me that people like to here ^-^; of course...oh and I dont even have 6 people that read my journals so yeah....*cough cough* i'll go make tea after this.<br />
<br />
Game Rules:<br />
<br />
<br />
[1]: The tagger says 6 habits/things about themself.<br />
[2]: The tagger tags 6 other people and lists them in their journal.<br />
[3]: Those 6 tagged people need to do a journal entry explaining the rules clearly and do 6 habits/things about themselves too.<br />
[4]: No tagbacks!<br />
<br />
<br />
1. Um..i have a very naughty kitten who jumps on my comp table and chases my mouse icon on the LCD screen. XD....he's biting my foot right now<br />
<br />
2. I live with my grandmother who thinks she is my mother and gives me nasty looks while saying that she's watching her weight and then gives my a disgusted look and says that I need to eat...what an oxymoron<br />
<br />
3.I think im some kinda crazy because I have problems looking at peoples faces when I talk to them.<br />
<br />
4. Bad habit. all my thoughts center around food. its all i think about...actually that really is the truth so much that its starting to be even more important than dance. T_T<br />
<br />
5. I have artists block ALL the time, and when I say ALL i mean ALL.<br />
<br />
6. I hate onions.<br />
<br />
lol and now...um lol i dont know who to tag...lemme see some random people that I watch that dont even pay attention to me...except for Mr. Trin....^_~<br />
<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ everything and nothing seems to be happening. Ballet classes have resumed as normal, and of course my entire body is aching and pulling in add ways. What else should I expect?<br />
<br />
this whole week has been one huge binge after another, finally I went to the store and got some diet drinks, for tomorrow because Im going to be doing a 2 day liquid fast. hopefully this will get me back down to 120.<br />
<br />
Suki-nee-chan I want your evanescence music!! especially lithium! I've been reduced to using youtube to listen to it! lol<br />
<br />
and I just realized that I left my sketch book at the dance studio....not cool. my camera batteries died and now I cant take any pictures either.<br />
<br />
This evening my grandmother made steak and cauliflower...the cauliflower was good, negative calories and all that, and if I admit it, it was yummy to have steak after so long...but just the thought of it all settling even more in my thighs and butt made me sick. I dont know really what to do, she watches everything.<br />
<br />
suki, it was fun being with you this past weekend ^^ we should do it again alright? you come to my house this time, across the bay...well unless your too nervous with my driving.<br />
<br />
*sigh* some one said I was fat today at the studio too. I really need to get in shape, and yesterday my grandma had the nerve to give me one of those looks while I was eating a popcicle and told me that SHE was watching her weight...yeah right. she ate three servings of chinese food the night before, you've got to be kidding me. and then she has the nerve to say that to ME? she has no idea what it really means...<br /><br /> ]]></description>

<br />
in celebration of the feasts we partake of every single freakin day. fat fat fat fat fat. *sigh* there is way too much they keep making me eat, and my mom today was telling me that I needed to eat because I wasnt fat. yeah, like she would know what its like anymore...she passed that battle in her life already.<br />
<br />
but im tired of this. I havent weighed myseflf in over two weeks, I feel disgusting, I eat so much! and I cant get on to my normal ana homepage to update there, because its got crazy thinspo pics up all over and it also has my intake logs for the past year. people will see it. plus its bad enough hiding not eatting. I'll be happy when all the people are at their respective homes and I can actually do this all in peace.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ So my family and I left for NC this morning, after 12+ hours of work on my part. Im pretty tired now, but I just wanted to update. My grandmother got me a scanner for christmas and I now have internet and a bigger table so everything is all set up at my house in salisbury. Yay.<br />
<br />
What isnt yay is that during the car ride my mom got a ton of junky snacks, and I havent been able to fast for around a week, or to purge because there are so many people around. I havent weighed myself either. I feel somewhat like I am swimming in the dark. I can feel all this disgusting food in my, wieghing me down almost literally. And then add to it the fact that I can see the fat forming again on my body. Like a week ago or two I was 122...Im not sure now. My goal for the 7th of next month was 110. I dont thisk that I will even be able to get down to 120 anymore. anyways g2g.<br />
<br />
~hannah<br />
<br />
ouch my stomach just clenched...too much food in it<br /><br /> ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ ********WARNING.....Um what can I say... a letter from me to GOD...If there is one....kinda graphic in an emo sense...um...yeah*********<br />
<br />
please let me pass on to another place. I dont like being here. why have you placed me here, when all I succeed at is lying and being greedy? I am such a terrible person and the shame of being me is almost too much to bear.<br />
<br />
what is my living worth? other then harming others and being decietful? I harm my family. They must be ashamed to have me as part of them...I lie...<br />
<br />
I lie all the time...about things I own...about the feelings I have...about what I like and dislike...my happiness...my scarred body...the hunger that naws continuously in my gut like a monster..."no, I already ate thanks! <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/s/smile.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=)" title="=) (Smile)" />"....and money....oh god, I lie about money all the time...I spend and spend until there is nothing else...and then I spend my families money...its like I want more and more...<br />
<br />
Why? what happened to make me become this wasteful thing?<br />
<br />
The thing that happened...just one of the many lies...I didnt pay for my ballet classes...even though my parents gave me money for it, I spent that money on other things...disgusting food on a binge, a new shirt because I fit into nothing and I have nothing nice to were, and then make up, and lotion, and candy, and scarves...its like a binge on material goods...<br />
<br />
perhaps your saying something to me god? do I do this, to fill something thats missing inside me? do I buy things that I dont need because I lacked what I wanted as a child?<br />
<br />
They say I am an adult now...I couldn't be further from that...not even a child would be able to lie so completely and destroy everything around them in this way.<br />
<br />
Maybe it is these things about me...my decietfulness and insicurities, my self-loathing, that make me want to starve...it hurts....nothing anyone says could change the truth. I am hungry constantly, but just the idea of keeping myself from those things...it makes me feel stronger.<br />
<br />
I dont know...please, I hate being me...I hate hurting other people...God...please let me die...I dont care if I can never dance again....even now...my whole life is filled with starving and food...what next, how can I control myself....I've lost intrest...and that makes me so sad....but for the past three months I havent even gone to a full month of ballet classes at that studio where I now owe....I'm ashamed....there is nothing here that is worth while to me....nothing but my body, my self image....thin, beautiful, perfect....I want to be air God...maybe then I can actually walk with you...<br />
<br />
Please....Let me die....Im so ashamed...Im so done with living this lie....I'm done being me....<br />
<br />

<br />
Anyways, have been on a somewhat productive writing and Intake kick. *bleh* still, this week has been annoying me weight wise. rofl well every week is like that for me, hopefully i wont start repeating myself about that sort of thing.<br />
<br />
I've been cut from work 2 days in a row now, and i really dont have much money. My last pay check was around 17 dollars, so Im sort of annoyed. I have a whole slew of hours to work this next week tho, so Im glad to be kept busy then.<br />
<br />
Painted my nails blue today as a trigger...hopefully I'll be able to purchase a red bracelet soon. Thats my big wish for x-mas from myself.<br />
<br />
hmm, not much else to update on...well i've started again with updating my xanga site since i was away for thanksgiving, if you wanna check it out...basicly it has my online calorie tracker lol.<br />
<br />
Not much fun for everyone else I think.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Thanksgiving was not too bad. I got sick on the day after our big meal...now you may be wondering why I think thats not so bad. well it was pretty awful considering I dry heaved until I threw up blood and was in the hospital...but the real reason it wasnt that bad was that in the beginning I brought up anything that I hadn't yet digested...gross I know. But hey I was 125lbs when I got home, which is awsome.<br />
<br />
The nutcracker performances went alright. My family brought flowers for me and bought the DVD of that evenings performance.<br />
<br />
My grandmother is really starting to suspect that I dont eat enough and that I may have an Eating Disorder. Lol no duh. The thing is, the more food she tries to force me to eat, and the greasier and fatter the food is, the less I want to eat. It never was like this before where I actually was afraid of the food that I had to eat, and how much I would put on from it...<br />
<br />
but my mom and dad, well I suppose that If they cant see it...or if they choose to ignore it because they dont wish to see that I have a problem, then I really dont have a problem...confusing I guess but thats what I think.<br />
<br />
I really love T.A.T.u  Awsome music you all should check out if you haven't already. <img src="http://e.deviantart.com/emoticons/r/razz.gif" width="15" height="15" alt="=P" title="=P (Razz)" /><br />

                <description><![CDATA[ I leave on Sunday for my trip to Colorado, Thanksgiving. Just another chance for me to stuff my face *sigh* This holiday gives me the chills just thinking about that. And to have to eat it all, because family is there and it would be strange and suspicious if I ate nothing or too little. I suppose its going to be purging for all of next week, though I hate doing that. It burns and my gag reflex is soo strong that I can barely breathe and end up dry heaving until I bleed sometimes. urgh. Purging is not something that I normally do, its painful, gross, and pro-mias idolize it far too much. Whats elegant about sitting infront of a toilet with your head in the bowl puking every single day? I have no clue.<br />
<br />
anyways asaide from that, we're going to have to give up my puppy. Not that I am very suprised. But the trainer said that he is most likely not wired right, that his reactions just are not normal for a dog. oh well I spose. i feel somewhat badly for him, but what else is there, he's unhappy too.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ Intake was alright today, but Nonna bringing home dinner screwed it all over. geeze!! and she even brought home candy!!<br />
<br />
gah!!!<br />
<br />
anyways, Im having an angsty day today.<br />
<br />
I got the job at Bath and Body Works yesterday, go me. But I still feel like a total looser. *sigh* anyways. cheking out all those awsome pro-ana sites out there and trying to get inspired. I've lost 3 pounds due to those silly green tea pills. don't know If i've talked about those or not.<br />
......<br />
......*Warning I am about to seriously talk about eating disorders here, so unless your not going to totally fry my brains out with how its bad for me (I know this) the read with caution.*..............<br />
......<br />
<br />
CW-127.9lbs<br />
GW-110lbs by x-mas<br />
<br />
<br />
general calorie count for today.<br />
Breakfast- cheerio's and soy milk--115 cal.<br />
Lunch-nothing<br />
Dinner-cranberries -65 cal.<br />
          chicken- 80 cal.<br />
          lima beans- 65 cal.<br />
<br />
excersize--  3 hours ballet -minus 690 cal.<br />
<br />
total negative 380<br />
<br />
Ah, I'm in love with the concept of being thin...maybe there is something wrong with me?...no one is noticing anyways. But I feel kind of weird...I mean how normal can it be to feel pround to get hunger pains?<br />
<br />
I can't stop though, cus I need to be perfect....hmmm perfect...<br />
<br />
Am I a sick person?...they say that unless your pre-disposed you won't get an ED...maybe I was? I mean heck my mother had an ED, anorexia. Man if I could be thin and beautiful like she is than I would be really happy.<br />
<br />
then I would get in at ballet auditions, and I wouldn't look at even just my face and see all the fat, and people may actually see me instead of my image...<br />
<br />
its a very scary thrill to have this sort of control....they say that those with ED's control this one aspect of their lives because they feel that they have no control over anything else. Is that true for me? I didn't think so...maybe its because every one makes all the decisions for me in my life. really, I think that I grew so dependant on my parents telling me what to do that I literally screwed myself over and now I can't and fear making them for myself.<br />
<br />
so my take on this is that, to be perfect, to be strong, I starve myself to overcome my humanity. it is empowering to be able to cheat my own body...to trick it. The number one drive and urge for a human is to #1 eat. and #2 procreate.<br />
<br />
To be able to resist that urge is extreemly powerful, i think and really shows true strength.<br />
<br />
now don't get me wrong here, these are my beliefs, but that doesn't mean that Anorexia of Bulima are safe and nice things to play with, they are diseases, pure and simple, they screw you over, royaly.<br />
<br />
I would not suggest them because I know now, its hard to turn away.<br />
<br />
lyrics from Bleed Like Me---<br />
she starves herself to rid herself of sin<br />
and the kick is so divine when she see's bones beneath the skin, and she says hey baby can you bleed like me?<br />
<br />
<br />
*note*--please no hater comments if anyone actually reads this shit. pardon my language.<br />
<br />
*new drawing-- Drive<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ long title I know...hehe. Anyways got half my b-day thankyou notes done and sent off in the mail. Now I have to finish organizing my room and then pay my ballet tuition. Bleh that stinks. <br />
<br />
Yesterday I went to a dance store and got a pair of legwarmers..lady fricken lied to me and said they were full length but they only went up to my knee. Stupid...grr so know I have to beg some legwarmers out of my dad...he'll probably cave under my awsome puppy whine. *shrug*<br />
<br />
Stupid lady...ugh...the lag warmers are useless...I need them for my hamstring not my calf...I didn't pull my calf muscle I pulled MY HAMSTRING!!!!!! how does that work then if they don't go all the way up? I have no idea...gah sorry now i'm in a ranting mode.<br />
<br />
It doesn't help that I have the worst writers block on the face of the planet right now....<br />

Well the thing is that I'm the one that takes the most care of him, oddly enough, and so now he follows me around every where, sleeps in my bed and is having testing-the-limits-of-den-mother complex quite badly...only with me of course. *sigh* He's been trying to bite me constantly....rough too cus he was a shelter dog and doesn't quite know his own strength yet.<br />
<br />
Thats it for now.<br />

                <description><![CDATA[ well this totally rots. anypoo i was in class and we have this ballet instructor from russia doing some master classes for us this week. so we were doing these stretches and he would go to every one and push them down into their stretch farther. well the very first one he came around to me and pushed and i felt my hip pop. Gah! now it really hurts and Im like dying. I think I pulled the muscle along the back of my thigh. grrr so now I dont know what to do really. I wont be able to go to class tomarrow if it hurts still. I was sitting around and drew piccies though so at least I did something... ]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[ bleh bleh bleh...seems to be a new word for me... anypoo found out that oekaki actually works on my grandmothers comupter so hopefully I can get some new drawings out when I get my tablet from my mom. dance is giving me some killer cramps in my upper thighs and calves. awell. its what I get I suppose. This school that Im trying out doesnt have central air and only one AC and in this 110 degree heat we're all about to die. But really the instructors are well worht it. Im actually learning for the first time in ages! yipee! ]]></description>
