Hey again. So here I am back again with another blog post even though I should probably be studying for my Math Quiz, but there's been a lot on my mind lately and I really really need to get things off my chest so here goes. (Note: I didn't really know where this post was going when I was actually writing it so please bear with me for a moment haha)

Well firstly, as you guys may or may not know by now, I'm sort of a worry wart. Okay actually, I AM a worry wart. So yes, I've been worrying a lot recently, to be more specific, I've been worrying about my friends. Lately it seems as if many of my close friends are sinking into dark abysses of melancholiness and doom. As ridiculously exaggerated as that might sound, I can't exactly deny it either. You see, I suspect one of my friends is anorexic, and while I shall not name her or disclose much information here, I must say she's in a rather worrying state and my other friends and I are really at a loss as to what we should do. We want to help her of course, but she keeps denying the facts even when we've seen certain things with our own eyes and so we can't exactly confront her about it which is well, pretty frustrating.

It seems like the stressful education system and environment that we've been trapped in all these years is beginning to take its toll on my friends and I as we all sink deeper and deeper. I thought it was just me feeling like I was crumbling bit by bit, but I realised that many of my friends feel the same way. People our age are supposed to sleep 9-10hours, my friends and I usually sleep about 4-5 hours at best. We used to be able to survive on 2-3 hours of sleep too but now even our health is failing us and most of us feel tired by 9pm at night when in the past we could last until 1am or so. What is it with our system which condemns us to this sort of fate at age 16? Doesn't anyone see anything wrong with this?? Studies have been done and most of our school is sleep deprived. We're just teenagers we're not even legal yet WHY do we have this problem even when our education system is supposedly one of the best in the world. I'm just rambling now but I really don't see why such things are happening nowadays.

On another note, I'd like to pause for a moment and bring this post back to the subject of my friend who I mentioned in the second paragraph. What's done has been done and all we can do is try to work from here, hopefully my friends and I will be able to figure something out to help her. But I guess I just want to talk about the general topic about eating disorders, I can't say for myself what it's like to have an eating disorder because I technically, haven't ever had one, but I guess that everything you do will affect other people as well. So if you have ever called anyone fat or anything along those lines, take it back and go apologise. Yeah I don't know how to end this post. Bye.
