About Me
I'm a dancer, and am extremely athletic. If I'm not dancing then I'm running 5-6km each night. I also love lifting weights and cross training/conditioning. I don't eat properly, and I know that. I don't usually eat anything through out the day, then binge when I'm home alone...then go for my 'over-endused' run after dark. On the days I have dance, I just try to eat as little as possible because I don't have time for a run. I havent seen my period in a very long time, and my weight fluctuates between 120-128lbs, sometimes daily because of binges. The only thing thats amazing that I can say, is that I've quit making myself vomit in an attempt to purge - basicly I just run 6k now...haha w.e, It's better than the other I suppose. I love Psychology, Writing, and Art. I used to hate anything to do with numbers or mathematics, but have now developed a love for both in the past year or so, simply because it's a more rational side of thinking...something I need a lot more of in my life. I am a very passionate person, with lots of understanding and life experience. People say I have an old soul inside a young body - and I couldn't agree more.
