Friends

I'll tell you one thing, out of all the things I have learnt since accepting myself.

Close Friends are the most important things ever.
It may be initially hard to tell them, and make sure (for gods sake) you choose the right ones. Use your brain and instincts :)
When you feel down, they bring you back up.
When you're stuck, they offer a solution.
When you hope to try something... they provide it with interest :)

I'm as happy now as I have been for a very long time, all thanks to a close-knit group of friends, who I really don't know what I would do without. :)

Gabby, Thank you for everything, the make-up, the 'counselling' and just the random conversations we end up having :) Plus you saved my life :P
Alex, Thanks for being such a great help, you really helped me to accept myself- something very important to me :) I know, I'll get the walking sorted eventually :)
Alice, I know you have only recently found out but you've still been a great help, advising me on all sorts of girly things already :P Have a great 16th :D

THANK YOU!!!

Anyway, I'm off to have a another go at eye make-up, I'll get it right eventually :).

KBO

Hmmm... English Language GCSE done, and for my final piece I wrote a very angry 'inform' article on what I would like to do after GCSEs.
'After GCSEs? I would like a sex change'. Hmmm... It was really angrily written, and I was virtually crying whilst  writing it, but it's original. And truthful. Unique. In theory. Hopefully, it will be all right.

Just a few more weeks and I'm free.
Until then...
KBO



(Never underestimate the power of talking to someone about your real self. It's therapeutic, and effectively saved my life weeks back. I at last have found a direction, of sorts, to head in. Everybody needs a direction.)

Resurrection

Finally feeling human again, after God knows how long in hospital... Too long. Walsgrave is actually a very good hospital though. Excellent in fact :)

Waterloo Road featured a decent portrayal of a Transgendered young person. This is actually a breakthrough in the UK, particularly in my generation, as Waterloo Road has a relatively large following :) An advancement for the Transgender community.
Anyway....
Little things seem to help in between femme times...
For example, I signed my GCSE papers off as Billie instead of Billy.... Moving towards my eventual goal, which would be a sex change I guess.

BUT!!! The most important thing to have is understanding and close friends... I'd rather have one of these than 100 acquaintances. If you find acceptance from your friends, you will find acceptance within yourself.
Acceptance is Knowledge.
Knowledge is Confidence.
Confidence is Strength.
Strength is The Determination which drives you onwards.
