remember to eat

I’m not anorexic or whatever (too boring), I’m just really intense. If I’m really into this book, or artist, or band, or game, or craft project (God help me when I do my crafts), I forget everything else, leaving my homework at home, forgetting to clean my room, whatever you know? But sometimes, I get really focused on a school project so… yay! I get my work done quick… And I’m kinda forgetful too, so unless I’m physically holding the sandwich in my hand, and I hear some cool music, I’ll forget I was eating and walk off… I was tested for ADD/ ADHD and I’m not… And I don’t think it’s a subconcious thing anyway…. Today I was rushing out the door to catch the bus (I go to a magnet school an hour away, if I miss my bus, then I miss school that day) and I remembered to snag a banana and a waffle… So hurrah!

eating makes me feel sick, so maybe there’s a reason i keep not doing it three times a day :(

all sorts of bad things start happening when i go without food for too long. crying jags, snapping at people, jitters, you name it! it seems like even a tiny bit of food is enough to improve things in these cases, so i think this is a sign that i should remember to have a snack before it’s an emergency.

...set my alarm clock (again) as reminders to eat….
