Thoughts.com Blogs - Introduction and goings on.

Dear all..

I think this is a fantastic site you've got going on and couldn't wait to join. I had an account a while ago but it got old and I didn't bother with it, but this is my new start and I will be reguluarly updating my goings-on.

Ok, so my name is Grace* and I am 19. I live in the UK. I go to University in the South and have a good unit of friends. I have a boyfriend of 3 months who I absolutly adore...at home I have my parents, a sister and a brother and various different K9's and felines! When I was 16 my best friend in the world died from heart failure. I was obviously crushed but I feel that I have learnt a lot from her and that she watches over me. I am not religeious but I know that if there is anything out there for me it is her.
Infact I have had several friends die in the past, 4. I was closer to some than others but they were all my friends, the same.
I have an eating disorder, although I DO NOT like to call it that, I dunno why! I have been this way for about a year and a half on-and-off. Specific type? Sometimes I think I am bulimic but other times I think I'm just anorexic, I guess I'm both. I haven;t been officially diagnosed but I'm not at the stage of going to a doctor yet...I don't think I'm ready. Only my boyfriend and my best friend know.
I am not looking for a sympathy vote, by the way, but I just want whoever reads this (you) to understand me properly.

So, why am I here?
I guess I'm here because I needed to start an archive of my life. It's all very well to think thoughts and feel emotions, but I wanted to join a community where is it okay to discuss it and maybe even talk to people like myself.

So you noticed MKA?
Yep...the Olsen twins..ha ha...okay I'm not obsessed AT ALL...but I do admire them for their style and determination, especially Mary-Kate (no offence to Ashley fans)!!! I guess it's cause they are around the same age as me and that they are young women trying to find themselves...like me.

What do I want from thoughts.com?
I just want to be in the community, I want to tell you guys how I feel and maybe learn some little (or big) things about myself and my life and how I am actually getting on, without the front.
I think its easier for me to talk to people I don't know about what's up than people I do...less judgemental.

So...
Add me if you like, I'm still getting used to the forum but I will make an effort to contact you and keep updated not only with my stuff but with yours...

I wish you happiness
