It LOOKED sunny, so i was tricked haha. I should have stepped outside. It's really that time of year where you have to do that, with the weather changing so easily.

Yeah, it's a rather particular shade.

Rambling is fine, I promise! I lived in Pittsburgh for about half a year. I really liked it there! I'd move back, if I had the opportunity somehow Do you not talk anymore at all to her, then?

I haven't seen it in a long time. I remember enjoying it, but I've also heard a lot of criticism now so I'd like to watch it again sometime now that I'm older. I keep trying to get Amber to watch Eternal Sunshine, but it's a movie you really need to have time to sit and watch, I think.

I'll definitely share spoken word with you, then! Amber's into it and shares stuff sometimes, so I can pass that on as well. She writes poetry and is really good at it.

We do still talk, but we just started up again recently. It ended kind of badly so we didn't talk for a few months. He also came out as transgender recently, so I'm glad I can be there for him now as a friend. ^_^

Oh that's awesome! I'd love to read some of her poetry sometime if she's alright with sharing it. I used to write a lot. I really wish I could get myself back into it.

Mh, that is a bummer :/ Well hopefully it doesn't come back.

I did XD Have a lovely time <3

I was just wondering. I use the site. I have a book challenge for how many books to read this year and it keeps me motivated for reading when I watch too much TV XD

I see :o I was wondering if it was at the point when you realised you were bisexual. But if you were growing away from it beforehand anyways, it seems more like a decision for your wellfare. I've always thought that the only good part about it is is pushes people to do good things. But then when they're like: I'm doing it for the church god etc I just want to tell them no you're doing it because you're a good person, and you should have some credit for that. I went to a youth group for a bit XD They were great people but I got a bit frustrated XD Anyways.

They are :D Especially when you don't have to do all the inconvenient baby changing etc lol.

I have to go down three flights of stairs and not forget my keys if I want to test the weather out XD So I never do LOL Having a good week end?

I'm glad you're talking again! And that you can support him :) It can be hard, coming out. It makes me sad that some people don't have supportive family and can't be out to their families : (

I'll try to convince her! Last year, she got to be part of an award ceremony and read some of her poetry, but that was the first time she shared it like that. It's usually kind of dark and heavy about stuff she's gone through, but I really think she should start sharing it and maybe try to publish it.

Oof, that's no fun D: I'm just lazy in the mornings, haha. It's decent! I went and saw my family today since they made Easter dinner. It was nice to see everyone, but they weren't in the best of moods today. How's your weekend?

Yesss I agree! I could ramble on about my feelings towards religion (mostly Christianity) but I'd probably sound too bitter and ramble too long loool xD

Haha how has your day been?

Oh I know. I just wish everyone had the love and support they need and deserve. I will never understand how some people can be so heartless and cruel.

An award ceremony is so exciting! That's really great for her.

How has your day been?

I have a friend who isn't out to his mom at all. And he's going to be moving to a new country and getting married to his partner, and it makes me sad to think he doesn't feel safe enough with her to be out : ( She knows about his partner and the move, but not the fact that he's trans. Like, I think the mom still calls him their daughter and stuff... And thinks they're in a straight relationship when they're both trans men.

Yeah! :) I'm trying to help support her in doing more stuff for her resume since she'll graduate in about a year. It's hard to get a job and going things like that might help?

It's been OK. Slept in late and then went to my grandma's for dinner. Everyone but my grandma was in a weird mood so it was ... a little awkward? And Amber's not good at dealing with my family when they're being dumb, especially when my sister's around. My sister is an asshole, to be honest. :P How's your day?

Aww, that makes my heart so sad. I hope he's able to come out to her someday and receive love and acceptance.

I'm sure things like that would definitely be good for a resume! Build that portfolio up, girl! haha

Ohhh man, that sounds like me with Josh's family sooo much! His family is... aggressive? His younger sister is like his best friend, but I honestly don't like anyone in his family. His younger sister keeps telling me how much she doesn't like my hair short; first thing she says the past few times she's been here. It's uncomfortable and annoying. Like girl, I don't like you period so Idc how you feel about my hair? Damn. I always wonder how Josh became the gentle, loving person he is because it makes literally no sense lol

My day has been alright. I worked 8-4:30, then went to dinner with my dad and grandma. I'm honestly just happy to be home alone for a bit to relax.

I hope so, too : (

Haha, that's what I've been telling her! Or even like freelance editing or having a blog, since she's going for English/Creative Writing and possible Electronic Communications.

I like my family on their good days, haha. They're a rowdy bunch, but they're accepting and fun to be around on good days. And I love my grandma the most out of anybody in the world. But, I think being where we are with a lack of diversity, they can be a little ... oblivious? Unintentionally offensive? They usually respond well to being corrected (like, my grandma gets confused about masculine women sometimes but is super chill when I'm like 'Nah, she's still a lady. She just likes suits and short hair.') My sister is just dumb and says racist things fairly often but thinks she's being cool or something? I dunno. That's really frustrating! She sounds dumb - commentary like that is always asshole-y and sexist. :/ I remember you mentioning not want to spend the day with them a bit ago, but hoping they'd come see Josh since he hadn't seen them lately.

I bet! That's a long day. Was it busy? Did you have a good dinner?

Hey! I'm sorry I stopped replying last night, I was exhausted and kind of just needed to enjoy the little alone time I got before my mom got home haha. But I'm off today and tomorrow, so yaaay. But I also have no idea what I want to do.

It's totally OK! I understand that : ) Oh, nice! :0 Have you had many days off (without it being when you were sick/recovering from your teeth)? It's weird to know what to do other than relax sometimes.

Our store is currently down to only 6 employees, so I've been getting 30-some hours each week. It's nice because of the money, but also exhausting because they keep scheduling me closing shifts, then opening the next morning, and it takes a lot out of me. Plus our AC is still broken, so it's grossly hot lol When we move, I reeeeally just want to be done working retail. I might try to find a preschool position. I'm not sure what career I want for the rest of my life, let alone now, and it's really been eating at me lately.

Aw, that's a bummer : ( It'd be nice if they were more conscious of when they're scheduling you. It's thankfully been warm but not hot here. I'm not good with the heat. Figuring out what to do with your life is rough. It's a lot of pressure, and I think it's kind of silly we're expected to know and invest a bunch of money in school and then do that forever. I'm not even always sure what I'm doing... Like, I have some ideas of what I'd really like to do one day, but I don't know how attainable they are. I hope you can move and get a preschool position! It's such a fun age, too.

Life is just...hard. Blehhh haha. But on the bright side, one of my friends just stopped by and gave me a goodie bag of Bridesmaid stuff. She asked me to be one of her bridesmaids in her wedding next April. I've never been one, so it's pretty exciting. ^_^

Yeah, life sure can be hard. Oh that's exciting!! Its a lot of work but can also be a lot of fun!

Hey! How is everyone? My friend who was going to get an apartment with Josh and I when we move, canceled on us last night. It's a bummer, but it's okay. We've been trying to sort out what we'll do now. On the bright side, the weather has gotten nice here!

I think whenever you have a big family reunion you're bound to have someone in a bad mood XD I'm glad it went well overall though :*

My week end was good :D Finished my book, had a nice brunch, watched some movies, made brownies for easter monday... Very relaxing!

Aw no D: When were you thinking of moving out?

Doing well :D Work, excercise, reading etc. Fun stuff ^^

We were hoping to move in the next few months. We're still hoping to, now we're just trying to decide whether to try to do it alone or seek out another friend to be a roommate to save money.

That does sound fun! I need to make myself exercise more for sure. I'm hoping to find some fun classes to join when we move. Maybe dance aerobics or yoga or Zumba. ^_^

Ah, cute HA! So many neat items. That Cute Little Black Bow is sort of like what I want that one Lillace bow to be, haha.

That's very true! My family is a rowdy lot, too.

That does sound like a good week :) What book were you reading? Or were you writing a book?

Thank you!! I've been saving this outfit in the wardrobe since around the middle of Masq haha. I really like the shades in your new HA! The cloud goes really well with it.

Wish me luck, today is my 6am-5pm shift. DUN DUN DUNNNNN xD

Hey! I forgot to tell you that I'm trying to trade my peachy pullover for the starry one. Other than that I probably won't trade it to someone else unless I really like something. But if I ever decide to sell it, I'll still definitely tell you. ❤️

You could always get a smaller place :o At least to start off with! Are you changing cities or staying where you are? I guess staying since you just got your job?

Fun! One of my friends does zumba. He's been trying to get me to go XD I might give it a try!

I saw, and no worries dear :* Thanks for thinking of me ^^

Aha, no I don't really write. During the week end I was finishing of the shadow of the wind by carlos ruis zafron, an excellent book. Now I'm trying to finish off a book called the last summer of the century by fabio geda. Also very good ^^

Do you do any reading? Or writing? :o
