How I did it: I wrote each character at least 50 times. The first five times I wrote a new character I would make it as perfect as possible in order to develop good habits with stroke orders and all. Read how I did it…
How I did it: Except from when I was sick I have been reading several books a month for a while now. It's been easy because I'm an indoor person and I love to read:) Also, when you borrow a book from the library, I think it's a bit reckless coming back with it after a month having not read it; you keep others from reading it, and you wear it out.

How I did it: Read read read!I'm very happy to have read this book, but at the same time it's sad to leave Don Quijote and Sancho when I've spend so much time with them. In the second part their adventures just became better, and my very favourite part; when Sancho lost his governorship of Barataria, I will never forget. I think everyone should give Don Quixote a try, it's very giving and made me laugh a lot:) Read how I did it…

I’m not doing as well as I’m supposed to do. I’m struggling to find reasons to keep fighting. I’ve realized that I’ve stopped eating many foods and only eat the few that are “safe” over and over again, plus a lot of other distorted behaviours have come back. The fear of gaining and staying at a healthy weight stops all my attempts at trying to get better. I feel like I’ll go in circles like this forever. I have very little faith in myself that I’m strong enough to fight this eating disorder. It seems like I use up all my energy to be a likeable person and do well in school, and then let the eating disorder live its own life.
