MIA?

No, no ... I'm not missing-in-action. I apologize for the hiatus. Things have been a little, uh, crazy ... to say the least.

I have a lot to tell you about, a lot to fill you in on, but for now I'm trying to focus on wrapping up my junior year of college. Summer can't come soon enough.

I'll be doing something exciting this Wednesday, something I've never done before nor ever imagined I would do. It will take place at my high school and it will involve me speaking to students about having an eating disorder.

High school is arguably where a lot of this started for me, so I'm pretty nervous. I haven't really been back in three years.

I have no idea what I'm going to say, but I do know that I will be videotaping the "talk" and posting it on this blog.

Until then, I highly encourage you to read this article. A lot of times when I don't know what to say or how to make someone understand what having an eating disorder is like, I find that other people have already succeeded in doing so. This article blew me away and was hands down one of the best accounts of having an eating disorder I've ever seen.

If you've ever been unsure of what I'm trying to get across via this blog - hopefully the article will help.
