Hmmm. Well. Today we have the funny, the freaked out and the wonderful. Where to begin....
Freaked out: Really bad, completely unwarranted panic attacks tonight. I bit myself, didn't think about it, just happened. It made it so that my math homework is probably incorrect and incomplete, I just can't think around attacks like that. I need to fix this before something REALLY bad occurs.
Funny: So for the play I'm in I have to wear a spaghetti strap dress, which means I need a strapless bra, which I don't own. (the dress makes me feel so out-of-place it's a bit sickening, but it's better than the last one, which actually made me nauseous.) I tell this to my mom and she runs upstairs dragging me with her, pulls out her wedding dress box and gives me the white, lacey, strapless corset she wore on her wedding so that's what I'll be wearing. AHHH. My friend told me (she was fitting the costume) that if it makes me feel better I look good in the corset. I don't believe her.
Wonderful: every day there are so many little things Wren does that make my heart jump to my throat with the wonder of how I could possibly have this great of a date-that-doesn't-go-on-dates-but-there-isn't-a-gender-nuetral-term-for-girlfriend. I seriously had to restrain myself from skipping today, I am that happy sometimes.

genderfriend? significant
genderfriend? significant other? lover (but that implies lots of sex >.<)? hm... *tries to think of more*
I'm sure there's more.
Good luck with the dress-wearing- just remember that a costume is a costume, not who you are, and try to have fun with it?
Yeah, it's getting better.
Yeah, it's getting better. The character is wearing the costume and the makeup and I am not as much; it's easier to be in character. However sometimes I have to put it on really early when I'm not in character and it's ridiculously weird cause I'm still me but there's this extreme disconnect between me and how I look that normally doesn't occur.
Significant other implies more commitment (i'm only nearly fifteen) and lover implies sex (which we're not having)...I'll think about genderfriend, though, thanks!
i'm having a similar
i'm having a similar experience with a dress/costume i have to wear, but it's less about gender and more about ugliness. xDD tho it might end up being a lot about gender when i have to wear it in front of people, so that'll be fun.
my big sister introduced me to genderfriend. it's a little silly, but sometimes silliness is fun. she always says, "so, do you have a... geeeenderfriend?" because she doesn't want to assume sexuality. it's great.
