Bye Ballet

It's 11:20am and I'm sitting on my couch watching reruns of Jimmy Neutron, never too old for this show or Spongebob. xD
This morning, my dad woke me up at 9:30 instead of 11 like he said he would. I needed stuff from my mom's because my ballet recitals are Friday and Saturday, and rehearsal is today at 4pm-9pm.
My dad got called to go trucking earlier because the load was ready sooner, so he had to wake me up earlier to get the stuff.
I'm so tired. I went to bed at around 2:30-45. 11am was pushing it for me..and then 9:30? wtf.
Whatever. I now have a coffee sitting next to me. 12oz. I used to drink 24oz but then my gastroenterologist told me it "dries you out," plus I started to feel like I didn't need it after school ended.
I just need it today because I'm going to be moving tonight. I don't want to move.
I'm saying goodbye to ballet after this recital. It's because my Ed's and depression. I still love it, I just don't have the will.
I've been taking it since I was 4 and I'm now 16. I'm going to miss it but the pleasure of not having to move will probably overcome it...
This may be my only time to blog, unless I have the energy or time when I get home after 9 tonight.
It's not much but it's an update.


I went back to my mom's and after grabbing the hair gel, bobby pins, etc that I need for rehearsal, I grabbed shirts and nailpolish and earrings and a bunch of stuff I felt take. There's not all that much here at my dads. It felt weird being in my old room. It's all decorated and really shows my personality. Here's an older picture, it still looks like this but things are moved around on the surfaces of cabinets.
 I kind of miss it, but then again I don't. Cause when I start to miss my mom's house, I just remember of how alone I felt all the time and how annoying the birds and dogs were and how dirty most of the house is because my mom puts things off. My room was my sanctuary, the only neat, good smelling part of the house. It lost it's comfort. Now at my dads, I'm sitting on the couch in the living room. It's comfortable everywhere, even when I'm alone. Well it is an apartment, but it's neat everywhere. He picks up after everything. He keeps everything in check. Shops for stuff when we need it, not a week after. Never out of toilet paper, napkins or food.
I love it here, I'm happier here.
And I feel better after typing that all out and seeing the truth in it.
Now, it's time to go sew my ballet costume straps, and start my makeup and hair around 12:30. Then go to rehearsal and sit there as they run through the whole show in which I'm only in one dance and the finale, because I quit the other 5 dances. I'll probably read. I'm reading a book called "Life Without Ed," it's really good. Every word she says I can relate too. My therapist lent it to me to read. I'm going to put one of those removable covers from another book over top of it though so no one sees...

  1. Your room was awesome cool! But, you can personalise your room at your dads, rope your boyf into help! It will be good for you..

    I know how you feel about things being neat and stuff being there when you need it, or not being, as the case may be. My house was like that, always unclean and always low or out of *something* it wasn't comfortable either. But, after years of keeping my room clean, I began to neglect it, because I would clean up after everyone else and not have time for my own space.

    I'm glad you're happier and comfortable at your Dad's. My Dad is like that too, he keeps everything tidy, he likes things neat. I liked staying there too.. Just, I had a younger brother, with a different dad and I had to stay home for him, to look after him, bc my brothers were so mean to him. I love him and miss him and can't wait to see him when I visit England in a week!

    I'm like that when I read ED books too! It's almost embarrassing to be reading them :s in case someone looks at me and thinks I'm some wanna, or that 'she's too fat to have an ED', although most people would just probably think, 'oh, she probably knows someone with an ED', or rather... they wouldn't think anything at all, bc the world doesn't revolve around me and they probably don't give a sh*t about what I'm reading! Lmao

    Dance sounds like a lot! Sad that you're stopping after so long though, as long as you're happy x

    1. Thanks! I'm going to personalize it. My dad started his job recently, I just have to wait until he gets more regular paychecks, then he said he's going to help me. :D

      I was the same way with my room. But when I'd clean up everyone elses messes..they would always end up messing it up right away.

      Wow we have so much in common, I'm happy you get to see him soon. :]

      Yeah exactly, I just have a fear they'd think I had an ED. I don't want anyone knowing that doesn't have to..you know?

    2. Oh I totally know.. SO frustrating! That's why I'm a little worried about this trip, bc after living normally for so long, I got SO overwhelmed by all the mess and noise, when I went to visit a few yrs back, I literally broke down hysterical.. but luckily we can stay at my dads for half the time, at least.

      Funny that! I was going to add that I eventually stopped because between the 5 of them, I'd come back to the first room I'd started and finished and it would look like I'd never started it! In fact, it often looked worse!

      Brothers, eh!?
