IEND EAN GIRL F FRIENDS W MEAN GIRL THE MEAN HE 98 <strong>Alice</strong> Spring 2019
ien ITH THE FRIENDS W GIRL FRIEN MEAN GIRL he n By Bailey Williams “Perfectionism” is really not all that perfect. It took me a few years and some heavy tears to figure this one out. “Perfectionism” is really not as great as she says she is. In a matter of seconds, we can all probably name off the girls in middle school who sent us home crying to our mother’s arms because we didn’t put on our mascara right. We weren’t invited to the sleepover. We chose Bath and Body Works over Juicy Couture body spray. I became friends with someone like this after middle school. We stayed together through high school. We became even closer in college. They say college is when you learn who you really are and how much your friends shape you. In truth, I was thriving with her. Early into my freshman year, I discovered a lot about myself; my individualism, my determination, my organization, and my driven spark to do everything well to prove I could make it on my own. The friend of mine began to rub off on my behaviors, even on my thoughts. She introduced herself politely and as a natural social butterfly. We were inseparable. We were so close, we even spent the mundane details of the day together. This was my college best friend, Perfectionism. Like our friends in middle school, the story goes a bit the same way. Multiple times Perfectionism sent me crying to my mother’s arms. She told me my makeup wasn’t good enough. Then, nothing became good enough for her. She convinced me I wasn’t desirable enough to hang out with and could never obtain nice things, no matter how hard I tried. My friend Perfectionism convinced me that my eating habits were the next problem to fix. My ultimate guide to happiness, success and control were in Perfectionism’s hands. I was no longer in charge of my decisions. “Good foods only” was my mantra of grace. Meticulous meals planned weeks in advance were all that mattered. Skinny, slim and skeletal was my vision of success. I used to strive to strictly eat only real and quality ingredients. Somewhere along my genuine journey for being green, my path turned from walking down a road to wellness to walking on a tightrope of perfection. Any little movement swaying me off my thin rope of rules and regulations was enough to blow me down <strong>Alice</strong> Spring 2019 99
