I am a perfectionist and have always had an utter disdain for failure. This has kept me from trying a lot of things in my life. Having finally accepted that failure is a requirement for a fulfilling and diversified life experience, I have created this year long project in an attempt to become comfortable with the idea of failing. This blog chronicles my journey with failure.

Day 145: Bad Habits
Sigh. This isn't an easy post for me to make, but I figure if I REALLY want to change my bad habit, I shouldn't be so "hush hush" about it all of the time.
I'm a chronic scab picker. I have been since the 4th grade. I've never cared much about this habit until recently. My boyfriend wishes that I would stop because it's really not a good thing to do. And I know this. But I enjoy it.
Anyways, I was doing really well with it for about a week, but I gave up (for now) after that. I have really sensitive skin, and for the past several months, my legs have REALLY been getting itchy rashes; obviously, I haven't figured out why yet. So it's just really discouraging to cut down on my bad habit when it's impossible for me not to scratch my skin.
Some day I will *maybe* conquer this bad habit. But not today.
