Ever since I was a child I wanted a cat but was never allowed one and now I have one!!! I'm soooo happy here's a pic to show him off!!

Strength

I ment to post this along with my last post.. its a song that gives me strength (there are more honestly).
Music feeds the soul... and this song sums up how i feel at the moment

Honesty really is the best policy

So ive recently been concered with my severe lack of a social group since moving to the city but things changed this weekend.
For those that dont know , i usually have to live in guy mode during the week as i have to goto work and make the pennies. I dont usually make friends easily but this weekend things changed. I was called by one of the girls i work with who as it turns out is a neighbour of mine. She invited me over for some drinks.

Now at this point i still had my nails done, a full face on and i decided to throw caution into the wind and just go as i was.. And she couldn't of been cooler with it all. I stuck by my guns of being as open an honest as i can be with new people i meet. I feel that the more open i am at the start the easier things will be when i go 100% full time. Less people to 'come out' too.

So we went over and i had one of the best nights of my life.. we chatted till the small hours about life the universe and everything inbetween. She even suggested a girls night out ^_^ EEEK :)

I've found with the exception of a few that most people have been cool with everything..this helps my confidence to no end.

Same with Sunday,  i met an old 'friend' who i haven't really seen in years, and we went round the park and had a natter and ice cream. Safe to say this weekend was definently a good one.. minus a fashion disaster that still makes me cringe soo much i dont think i can even type it. One to class as a learning curve for myself i think :/

So thats all for today really, got some more pics (love how confident i feel now to pictures online) will do this later this week i thinks

I made a video

So i've started working on making some videos to document my transition, a multimedia album for myself to look back on in years to come ... feel free to have a look here

The Past , Present and Future (and finally some pics)

Ok, so its been a while since i actually had the chance to sit down and work out what on earth im doing with this blog..

In the past I was guilty of not updating, not interacting or being true to myself, and if you cant be true to yourself then how is anyone else going to take what you say seriously.
So i have made a promise to myself, to update this blog as often as i can.. even if its just a random musing and this promise i will keep to myself.

I think things will be easier with this now as i have moved house! Its gorgeous ^_^ I love my room and could spend all my days in here.. but that would be boring. Advantages of this room is i now have a desk that i can sit at and type/work on blog and just be more productive :)

Also i have a little dressing table area now where i can practice makeup and hair, which i didn't really have in my old house, this new house has a vibe about it that just makes you feel at ease.
Heres a couple of snaps:-

At the moment though life is mostly good. I recently sat down with my flatmates and told them the story, who i was and what i intend on doing with regards to transitioning and the future. One of the girls asked my loads of questions to which i duefully answered  (oh in case you were unaware, i live with 2 girls). The other girl was ok, didn't really have much to say which i suppose is fair enough.

I also came out to an old friend of mine, who is dating my best friend now. He was a completely different kettle of fish. We were at a festival for my friends birthday and i had to tell him as he was going to wonder why i was wearing a dress and calling myself Katie..
He took it well at first, but as he got more drunk, he just got quite offensive with what he was saying.. i think his heart was in the right place .. just not his mouth tho lol :)

But coming out to these people and standing up for myself has helped me gain more strength.. Not only in who i am, but standing up to other people and not worrying as much about what other people think just focusing on myself and my own happieness.


Now this brings us to the future... The most exciting part.

I NOW HAVE AN APPOINTMENT DATE WITH THE LOCAL GENDER THERAPIST!!!!

Im over the moon, soo excited. Its been a year of waiting, but finally i will be on the yellow brick road to the oz of finally being in my true gender.. Its been many years coming, but im more at peace now i know its happening, im still nervous yeah, and i dont handle excitement or anticipation well (i still dont sleep properly on christmas eve)

So thats where im at, this is what the future now holds...

Stay tuned kids, cause this is where it gets exciting!!!
