So I was kinda rattled all week, what with this eating disorder thing and all. Also it didn't help that right before the assembly, I had Jewish History, and that was the first time we met with the AIPAC people (see DAMN YOU AIPAC!!!!). And AIPAC always knows exactly what buttons to push to get you to support them, and you get angry even though you know you're being manipulated.
So I was not in a good mood when I entered the auditorium, but I gotta say, that was one hell of an assembly. These two girls, one junior, one senior, stood up there on stage and told about their struggles with anorexia. It was an awesome (I mean in the old sense) thing to see--and chilling, too. I cannot help but admire their courage in their willingness to stand up and talk about this, especially seeing how I always have had a hard time discussing my old disorder. That takes guts. I wish them luck on their road to recovery.
