Well, I am a Super Senior in College... yep, it's my fifth year. Don't change your major your senior year... I'm studying Youth Ministry. I'm passionately pursuing the Kingdom of God. I love people. I hate death. I think true justice is repentance, not punishment. I believe love is a choice you make more than it`s an emotion you feel. Furthermore, I believe the oppostive of love is not hate, but selfishness. I believe in social justice and I try hard to create it where I am. I`m both a thinker and a feeler. I love to laugh. I believe God`s Kingdom is available here and now for ALL people. No exceptions.
My interest vary a lot, but I love going to Life Bridge and hanging out with the teens at Amped. I hope I can be a positive influence in their lives. I'm also artistic. Art is my passion. I enjoy crocheting and knitting, but I prefer crocheting over knitting. My favorite thing to do in this entire world is to laugh!

I finally got back to your answer to my question about eating disorders and the bible. We should chat some time. I just got out of IP a little over 2 weeks ago. I know that somewhere there's actually the first recorded case of anorexia in the bible, I think it's in Samuel somewhere. I think her name was Hannah. I haven't done much research on the topic though, but I do know that she suffered from an eating disorder. Yeah you're right, the bible doesn't specifically address eating disorders. Thanks for your help, Amanda! Oh and my name's Darla!
:D HUGS :D

In 9th grade I started going to a public school after 2 years of homeschooling and I was about 80 pounds overweight. I didn't look super huge but the students in my school did a lot to mess with me. I noticed that I was starting to gain weight and I didn't want to. This is when it started. Whenever I over-ate, or if my stomach was too full I got scared and, well, you know. In 11th grade I just sort of stopped (it wasn't really strong to begin with)but ever since I still have moment of weakness
I'm a senior in college studying Youth Ministry. I will be a 5th year next Fall. I'm ready to be done and move on to my next phase of life, but I'm going to be here again. My friends and class are all graduating. I don't look forward to next year because I fear being alone. It's like having senioritis all over again.
Technicially I'm morbidly obese, and I hate it. I hate the people respond to me. I hate the way I look. And I hate that everyday I am reminded of my weight. I am having such a hard time losing the weight. I'm worried for my own health. I'm feeling the physical and emotions barriers from being obese.
