The Blog Of Quynn

Hello, bloggers.
I hope you all are not apart of this sad statistic-3 people every day die of an eating disorder, that adds up to 10 million kids, women, and men every year, that is 1/6 of our entire world . That does not include people who die of hunger and starvation in Africa, and places like that.
"Jealously kills not only its prey, but also it's raging heart" -Anonymous

"Jealous, that's what you are" Said Ashley to me,
"I know, I know, I just really wanted that part in the play, it's perfect for me!" I replied, the breeze blowing in my hair.
After a few days my view point on jealousy turned, dramatically, now jealousy is not just a part in a play I didn't get. But something more, something more complicated, something that kills...
A read something in the news a couple days ago... It was about this..

A young woman, Samantha Brooks, was popular, and all that everybody wanted to be her...Everyone wanted to be popular...Everybody wanted to be thin...Samantha had all of that-But, she didn't think that she was thin. She thought she was fat, and she soon became so jealous of her friend... Even though Samantha thought she was fat, she didn't really care what anyone else thought of her, and she never complained..Until her friend Crystal, who weighed, like, 60 pounds started complaining, saying that she was fat, ugly... She wasn't.. Samantha soon got more jealous and angry at her friend...Crystal was not ugly or fat, so why did she say that? It made her sooo angry! So angry and jealous until Samantha soon began to grow an eating disorder.. Samantha only ate 900 calories every day, and would barely live. Samantha was soon hospitalized, and was fed by a tube. She was a living vegetable, and soon died a couple months into being hospitalized....
We've all heard those quotes: "Jealousy kills" well, today, we're living proof of it.

  1. Yeah, I heard from my friend that there was a girl who was her friend and she was very skinny, 11 or 12 and under 70 pounds and told her mom that she was too fat and needs to lose more weight. I hate anerexicism (NO CLUE HOW TO SPELL THAT WORD RIGHT THERE...)
