 <title>Issues Remembering</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2013/03/issues-remembering</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;So I need to vent and I&#039;m back.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;For  a while, my OasisJournals wouldn&#039;t work for me.  Then it began working but I forgot to sign in.  I&#039;d remember to do so and then sit down to do it and forget.  Which brings me to one of the main things I need to vent about.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I am having a ton of trouble with my memory.  I&#039;m not sure if its partially a social phobia/anxiety -related issue or what.  But I forget what I&#039;m saying in the middle of a sentence.  And I&#039;ve been very forgetful.  I feel like I&#039;m making less sense when I talk but I don&#039;t know if that&#039;s just a misperception I have.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Update</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2013/01/update</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;Hello.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;This past week, I started back at Uni.  In all 4 classes, I am going as Eli and with male pronouns.  I&#039;m so worried people will slip up because, let&#039;s face it, I almost never ever ever pass. :(&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>So then there&#039;s this</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2012/12/so-then-theres-this</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;So what have I been up to?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m not sure how many of you here &quot;know&quot; me or how many of you I&#039;ve actually had contact with.  I can sense, however, that many of the regulars that used to be here probably aren&#039;t here so much anymore...maybe they grew out of it or some such thing.  I dunno.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>So I&#039;m back....Again....</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2012/09/so-im-back-again</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;So I&#039;ve been gone forever and I&#039;m sorry.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There;s so much to update on, I don&#039;t know where to begin.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Let&#039;s see....&lt;br /&gt;
well, in Uni I&#039;m taking 4 classes this semester (the minimum to still be considered a full-time student) and two of them I absolutely LOVE, one is pretty good, and the other doesn&#039;t seem so promising but I&#039;m trying to force myself to open my eyes to the possibility that it can/will/maybe improve.&lt;/p&gt;

 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;i feel like such a monster and such a screw-up.&lt;br /&gt;
i want to write and i feel jittery but calm but i dont know what to write.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i dont feel like talking about any of the shit going on now. but no, i&#039;m not &quot;ok&quot; or &quot;fine&quot; or whatever other word you think i should use to make others happy.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;it doesnt even really matter anyway, now does it?&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>headspinning headache</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2012/07/headspinning-headache</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;headspinning headache.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;i really just want to go to class and use male pronouns and be eli. i just cant fucking stand being a girl.&lt;br /&gt;
i talked to my prof today and was going to ask if she could use male pronouns for me but i didnt sound so sure when i said it so i think it didnt realy get my point across.&lt;br /&gt;
and then at one point i asked if hypothetically, if i wanted to and was ready for an informal name and pronoun change for class, if that&#039;d be ok.  i think she said yes. at least im pretty sure of that.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>So yeah...hell, please read this</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2012/07/so-yeah-hell-please-read-this</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;So I hope you dont mind  me mentioning your name, hell (hellonwheels), but i feel like you can related? or could relate at one point, in one way?&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So internalized phobias...homophobia, biphobia, transphobia, whatever...it all sucks.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I remember you were having a hard (to say the least) time with internalized homophobia, hell.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And i feel terrible about this but I need to admit this.  I&#039;m really internally transphobic, and tonight was worse than ever.  I did some pretty shitty things and I regret  it.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Am I the only one out there?&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>I&#039;m in my 20s but teen angst.</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2012/06/im-in-my-20s-but-teen-angst</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I kknow I always say this after being gone for a lengthy period of time, but I want to say it anyway....I&#039;m sorry.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I want to get back to writing, legit, on here every day if possible.  Why&#039;s that always fall through the cracks? :(&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I hope to get back to writing things not so dismal.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;But first, I need to get something off my chest.&lt;br /&gt;
WARNING: mental health, depression, bpd, etc....&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I&#039;m so depressed.  As always, I know.&lt;br /&gt;
But I want to just sleep.  And I don&#039;t feel like eating because I&#039;m not hungry and I have no energy.&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Being Trans*gender</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2012/05/being-trans-gender</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;So, I know I promised two entries yesterday and only wrote one, which was off the radar in terms of subjects I said I would be focusing on.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;So here&#039;s a post that I don&#039;t know how well it will turn out because I&#039;m still processing the ideas in my own head.  But It&#039;s actually going to be about trans*genderism in general.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Being trans*gender does NOT mean:&lt;br /&gt;
-you need to go to (gender) therapy&lt;br /&gt;
-you are sick/ill/have a disease/are possessed&lt;br /&gt;
-you need to take hormones&lt;br /&gt;
-you need to have surgery&lt;br /&gt;
-you need to hate your body&lt;br /&gt;
-you need to hate yourself&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;(etc.)&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>(Two Main Subjects)</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2012/05/two-main-subjects</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;I will be writing two journal entries today.  This is my first and it will not be on the subjects of gender/sexuality as I had been posting.  My second post today, however, WILL follow the subjects of gender/sexuality as I have previously mentioned I would do.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;TRIGGER WARNING: Depression, Insomnia / Hypersomnia, Eating Disorders, EDNOS (eating disorder not yet specified), Anorexia, Issues of Self-Perception, Gaining/Losing Weight&lt;/p&gt;

 <title>Gender and Sexual Orientation</title>
 <link>http://www.oasisjournals.com/2012/05/gender-and-sexual-orientation</link>
 <description>&lt;!--paging_filter--&gt;&lt;p&gt;So it&#039;s been more than 12 hours...I&#039;m aware of that.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I would apologize, say I&#039;m sorry, and guilt myself into feeling terribly for my failures.  But I am not going to.  There&#039;s nothing that I should feel sorry for, in relation to journaling/not-journaling on here.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;There are two unrelated topics about which I&#039;d like to write.  But they don&#039;t really fit nicely together, so I&#039;ll pick one and then do another one as a separate journal entry.&lt;/p&gt;
