Life Sucks, Then You Die


Today sucked. There is no other way around it. School actually wasn't too bad; I enjoy being anywhere as long as it's not my house. Why, you ask? Well, my mom is a nutcase. Her hobby is criticizing me (and my dad, but I don't know his feelings about this). She is absolutely neurotic about my weight. I have a BMI of 19.5 and my body fat percentage is 17.5%. In my mom's eyes I am chubby, if not overweight. She prefers I don't eat dinner; if I do (school lunch is at 12, I might get hungry by the time I go to bed) it's always accompanied by dirty looks. In her mind, if I'm out with friends she would rather I smoke pot ("Everyone tries it sometime!") than eat 2 slices of pizza("You ate TWO?! That probably has 1000 calories in it!!!"). Food always has a negative connontation. I envy my friends' moms who are always so relaxed. Like I was hanging out with a friend last weekend and her mom took us to Starbucks where I got a light small frapuccino. My mom would rather die than buy me such a "fattening" drink. She also refuses to listen to my say about this. She enjoys telling me how I'm the fattest of all my friends. I point out that if I'm a size 2, I can't possibly be fatter than someone who wears a 6 or an 8. She doesn't care. So as you can imagine my life is pretty fun.


And That's Just Peachy.

(By the way, the picture of the peaches represents my life-today they are rotten)

A Bit About Me


So maybe I should say a little to get started eh?
Well I'm just an ordinary girl next door...or maybe not? Everyone seems to think I'm some sort of extaordinary person. That I'm supermodel gorgeous. That I'm a genius. That I'm an amazing dancer/pianist/tennis player/member of the million clubs I'm in at school. Well, sometimes all I want to do is be normal. After all, I'm just a girl with soft spots, insecurities and weaknesses (I just can't resist some good 'ol chocolate and a nice shopping spree!) I guess the reason I decided to start writing a blog is so I can reveal the real me. A diary of sorts.


And That's Just Peachy.
