transportation to the shrink you mean?
Among other things (mainly (hopefully) a job so I can afford it myself), yes.

Did you ever tell/hint your parents anything about being trans?
Accidentally came out to my mom last November, officially came out to my folks in March, and I borderline flaunt it at this point. They apparently just want me to actually talk to them about things, which again, I chicken out of. I was supposed to see a shrink about the fact and other things, but evidently, that hasn't materialized into much. Maybe I should go to driver's ed and take matters into my own hands. I mean, I'm 16, so what do I have to lose?

Yeah, it's totally understandable. Was their reaction alright, all things considered?

They've warmed up to the idea. Was decidedly mixed in November and March, but leaned positive in July (which is where I left off).

This is very good news, you're lucky to have parents who are open to the idea Smiley
My mother once took me aside and had a very strict, worried talk about the fact that I had a customized gender on Facebook. The customization was just some in-joke meme that I did with my friends and forgot to change back, but even seemed to cause her a lot of worry. It was really depressing to see her reacting that way, so I'm happy your parents are warming up to it.

I have deleted all of the information on my phone. I am currently in the process of downloading it again, so I can delete it again, and then download it a second time.

So, how are your Saturday nights going?

I bought my plane ticket to Green Bay (2-hour layover at O'Hare) for after Thanksgiving to visit with my girlfriend in Door County. Her mom has a friend who can get us discounted Packers' tickets, and they'll be playing at home when I'm there, so I want to take her to see her favorite team as well. I'm very excited for the trip!

Florida Bar Exam results tomorrow. The stress for the results has honestly been as bad as the pre-test stress was; I haven't slept well in days. If I don't pass I MAY be fired? It's not quite clear and I don't think my office is even quite sure...

PASSED the Bar Exam the ugly way, by an average of all the parts, but still...a pass. I won't be fired, I'll get to put a pretentious esq. after my name, and I'll be able to sleep again. Its been a good morning.

In other news, I'm proud of myself for embracing the chaos of my life. It's better than worrying or panicking about everything.

Hopefully I'll get things back on track soon.

I was officially accepted to the special army program called Atuda today. Basically, I get to study for a BA, the degree mostly funded by the army (but I'll still have to pay for the dormitories and living), and then serve for 6 years, but as an officer working in something related to whatever I studied. Specifically, I'm going to study International Relations and Economy in Jerusalem, but my job in the army will be in the Budgeting Division because they need those more. It kind of sucks because I wanted something related to international relations, which is much rarer but much more interesting to me- analyzing threats, information etc. Oh, well, it's still 6 years of experience helping to manage the defence budget and I'll be able to do a Master's Degree while in the army.

Darn, you guys are doing a lot of moving. What's the reason? And Sunrise, are you staying in Virginia or moving out of state?

The girl at the Publix Liquor store seems to like me, so I literally smoked my last five cigarettes in a row as a means to have an excuse to walk down there faster Tongue
