Again it's been too long since I've updated this blog and I'm very sorry.  I should be able to update more often from here on out because the most strenuous part of this semester is over.  Next week is final exam-based so I will have no other things to worry about ( Read more... )

I know it's been an excruciatingly long time since my last update; for that I am profusely sorry.  A lot has been happening and I'll do my best to fill you all in ( Read more... )

November has come to a close.  I can say with all certainty that it has been one of the worst months of my life.  In the course of a month I have finally admitted to the fact that I have nothing going for me in the area in which I live. Having lost my best friend of 22 years along with no longer feeling comfortable with the local community has ( Read more... )

I've come to a very important decision that is a major shifting point in my transition.  I have decided to take an indefinite leave of absence from the local trans support group.  At this point, I believe that the group and I have come to a point where we need a good, solid break from each other for a while.  I will continue to attend gender ( Read more... )

As some of you may know, this is my last year of college and I am currently in the nursing program here at St. Cloud Technical and Community College (SCTCC).  It's a very competitive program; it's hard to get into and is considered to be one of the best LPN programs in the area.  The program actually only lasts two semesters and I'm nearly done ( Read more... )

I'll just say it outright:  I'm transsexual.  I'm male-to-female and am currently ( Read more... )

Wow, it's been a long time, hasn't it?  Now that I have some people who are dedicated to reading what I have to say, I figure now is as good a time as any to overhaul the theme and style of this LiveJournal and start thinking about content I can post here.

I've been to Hell and back more times than I can count in the past many months and I can ( Read more... )

Well, here's the first part:

I'm actually going to attempt it...again!

I'm going to attempt to answer the "5000 Question Survey" once again.  The version I am using is linked to above.  This time, a bit of positive news:  I learned how to do LiveJournal Cuts, so I won't be bogging down the pages of my friends with all sorts of content; you can choose to click it or not.

I was speaking with someone on instant messenger today, and I had to leave the computer for a while.  I told them I’d be right back, and then I came back later, telling them I was back.  I got absolutely no response, and then, without warning, they logged out.  Now, one might think that this was an error in their internet, but it’s not.  As much as ( Read more... )
