Fear

I guess it just hit me what "transitioning" really means...

Okay so I have a sneezing fit, the teacher sends me to the restroom to get something because she doesn't have any tissues.

On my way out of the (mens) restroom I make eye contact with some kid that was in my German class LAST year. when I was a "girl" And ugh....

I want to change my name and school. I don't even hate my school. Yeah it's a mess but I love my teachers. (Except for the favorites-playing, annoying, sexist one. DX; ) But I don't know if I can deal with this.

I can't even talk to my consoler about it for a wile because the school screwed up EVERYONE'S schedules. DX; Although she's probably just going to tell me that I shouldn't go through with the transition until after High School.

I don't want to have to live in fear of being found out for what I am. I wish I could just be me and people could just accept or at least tolerate it.

I'm tired of being scared.

look it right in the eye.

look it right in the eye. having faced homophobia ((Which is obviously not as bad as transaphobia or whatever they're calling it these days)), the best thing you can do is look them straight in the eye and, if you're really brave, throw out a friendly smile. It's more powerful than the ((also powerful)) death glare.

Oh, and I've been gone a while, so... congrats on starting the transition!

Be yourself. 'Cause if you're busy being somebody else, who's gonna be you?
