Style<\/h3>

\u201cI put on these trousers because they go with my shirt, which I\u2019ve just bought. Sometimes I dress girly, and sometimes I\u2019ll be more laddish, like now. I don\u2019t really care what\u2019s on the shirt, as long as it matches the rest. I mainly get my inspiration from Instagram and from videos that I see. I\u2019m wearing these sunglasses because they just happened to be in my bag when the sun came out.\u201d<\/p>\n

Disorder<\/h3>

\u201cLast year, I did Social Work, a higher professional education (hbo) course, which also included some psychology. I found it so interesting, that I decided I wanted to study it. I find it really interesting to study how the brain works and why people behave as they do. If someone has a disorder, I want to know whether it\u2019s related to brain functions or whether it\u2019s learned behaviour, or a combination of the two. I myself had an eating disorder, which I luckily recovered from with the help of my mother who\u2019d experienced it herself when she was young. Having lost control over myself in another area \u2013 I like to be in control \u2013 I started to control my eating behaviour. I began to eat less and less. But, fortunately, that\u2019s behind me, although it will certainly have contributed to my interest in psychology.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tattoos<\/h3>

\u201cI\u2019ve got two tattoos, one portraying the bond with my brother and sister and the other my relief at overcoming my disorder \u2013 with the word Bellissima<\/em>. I\u2019ve got a new, better view of life. And I\u2019m really looking forward to starting my new studies.\u201d<\/p>\n
