Week 6, Blog 1 (TA)

audience: BYU FEMALE STUDENTS

some become anorexic to feel more in control.

BYU students in general often tend to feel guilty because of the high expectations that are always around

very smart

often overachievers and perfectionists. they expect a lot from themselves and in some instances even believe they are sinning if they aren’t reaching their expectations

many are trying to apply to good grad schools, which means they need to have exceptionally good grades

all want a balanced life—not just because balance is good but also because they are told to have one

very religious and have high morals

have been known to overload/stress themselves out and then become depressed or suffer from other mental illnesses.

always pressed for time

believe the whole purpose of life is to be happy, and see happiness beyond the pleasures and gratifications that the world offers
