I've always held my pencil weird. I once had a first grade teacher try and "correct it" for me. Thats when I knew I didn't like the way I held my pencil anymore. That was an example of how when someone is trying to fix something, It can make you hate that thing. When I was little, I really liked food. Every woman that I grew up around talked about calories and dieting, flat stomachs and thigh gaps. So when I was a teenager I tried to correct myself. Thats when I knew I didn't like food anymore. That was yet another example of how when everyone is trying so hard to fix something, It can really make you hate that thing. I still hate how I hold a pencil and I think about it every time I sit down for a meal.
