About Me
I'm 23 years old and lived in California. I moved there a few years ago from Florida. My family still lives there. Originally I'm from Canada though. I've realized that the grass isn't always greener on the other side (literally on the other side of the country). I'm trying hard (or was trying hard) to get myself through school while working on the side as well, but at the moment it's not working well for me. I'm currently not working and taking the semester off. Right now I don't know where my life is headed. I struggle with an eating disorder (anorexia and bulimia), major depression/bipolar II, anxiety, trichotillomania, and other OCD behaviors. Now I'm in Alberta working on recovery because I am so sick of this eating disorder of living a miserable life.

Interests
I'm still trying to figure out what I like to do. I have a small dog who I absolutely love. He has helped me through so many hard times just by him being him. Animals are awesome! I'm so sad though because when my father came in town recently he took my pup back with him to FL because the person I was staying with didn't want a dog around:( Once I find a permanent place to live I will get my doggie back. And yes, I love to read! Recently I got back into it. I love sitting at Starbucks with my cup of coffee, reading a good book.
