It’s been awhile…

Another long period of time going by without blogging… I don’t know why it is so difficult to keep up with… This semester was incredibly busy though! I’ll have to post pictures of all my projects :) And got a new haircut!

I’m taking this summer a little bit slow- working on campus and taking a summer class. I’d like to work on my art more as well… I’m still a little bit amazed that I’m not a college senior. It’s crazy!

In any case, I’d really like to work on my blog more this summer and start writing again.

For now, I will leave with a quote:

“It is none of my goddamned business if a random 400-pound (or 150-pound, or 90-pound) woman is healthy or not. Just as it’s none of my business how much money she makes or how her sex life is going. Health is private. Period.

What I do believe – and what I feel perfectly qualified to proclaim from the rooftops – is that every woman at every weight, shape, and size deserves to be treated with respect, deserves to feel loved, deserves to make her own decisions about her own body. Every woman at every weight, shape, and size deserves to have a fabulous time exploring her personal style and honing her unique look. Every woman at every weight, shape, and size can define health for herself. And, above all, every woman at every weight, shape, and size deserves to be happy. Every woman at every weight, shape, and size CAN be happy. And anyone who claims that happiness is contingent on weight is foolish and misguided, prejudiced and small-minded.

I’m not interested in quantifying the health of other women. I’m not qualified to make decrees about the health of other women. But I’m making it my life’s work to make sure that other women are happy. Happy with their lives, their bodies, their very existences.

Because happiness trumps everything, and we all deserve a piece of it. ALL of us. Including you.”

- The Question of Health

:) Here’s a good summer.
