I really like being "big sister" to students and this morning, I got to compile a list of queer reading for one of my favorite student couples (they are adorable; I hope they make it). Yay, useful me and my driving desire to make everyone read Radclyffe Hall and Ed Wood novels!

Oh, wow. These look gorgeous.

I decided I was finally going to learn how to do my brows today, so I watched youtube makeup videos till I felt I had the general concept down, plopped myself in front of a mirror...and my brows have never looked so good!! My mom doesn't wear make-up at all (she's all about the inner beauty) and I never had anyone I was close to to help, so I pretty much have had to learn everything step by step on my own with only the internet as my guide lol.

Also I bought a bunch of beauty products today so wooooo!

I still lurk this site every day, and I can certainly smile for that.

Since 2008, and even when I don't post, I lurk here and check around pretty much daily.

ten year anniversary!

Yay! Is it on October 12th?

One of the best friends I've ever had have just contacted me after many years' break - we had split up with some bad blood between us - to invite me for her wedding. I'm both excited and really, really anxious. I hope we can make up.

Tomorrow I'll take the last med prescribed by my psychiatrist. If everything will be fine, I'll be meds free.

Things are getting calmer now. I had my struggles and felt shitty and maybe I'll have shitty days - or even weeks - but I strongly believe I'll eventually be fine. My boyfriend learns how to be supportive, he's very sweet, caring and we care a lot about each other. I have friends and I feel surrounded by people who accept me and I feel safe.

Life isn't perfect, sometimes memories strike back or I feel a bitter sting when I think about the trauma I've been through but I recover every time and the sting fades away more quickly every time. Breaking the silence was the best thing I did for my interactions with the world. I have amazing people in my life and I feel grateful everytime I spend time with my friends. I feel less scared about my future than I used to me. Things do get better!

Reading above your reasons for being happy just put a smile on my face.
Also, it's a lovely day outside and the beginning week is shaping to be not terrible, so there's that.

Saw students perform, in full costume, musical versions of scenes from Pulp Fiction, The Pearl Princess, and Snow White (with music lifted from various anime, including Utena and Ouran Academy). I feel like just by being in the audience, I have accomplished something with my life.

Finally getting some thing done to personal paperwork! Thanks for the reminder about apartment hunting and congrats on the money and new place!

My coloring books are selling well. C:

Minutes away from catching a cab to the airport so I can fly halfway around the world and see my family!
