Today was relationship day on Tumblr. I swear, almost everyone that I follow posted something about relationships. I was bored at work and I decided that I needed to write down a list of qualities that I look for in a girl that I’m dating. My dating life has been a disappointment, although I have [...]

A couple of months back, my sister, Andrea, decided that she wanted our family to host an exchange student. There are reasons why I wasn’t exactly fond of this idea, and there still are, but I have to admit that I’m a bit excited for the change.
The Meeting
Our family was interviewed, to see if we [...]

I think it’s mandatory to have students in elementary school answer the question “What do you want to be when you grow up?” I changed my answer a few times throughout the course of my young life; I’m still changing my answers. The one thing that has stuck since birth is that I want to [...]

The following is somewhat of a joke, somewhat true. I don’t plan on putting out an online dating ad; I’ve been having some luck, both bad and sort of good, in person and haven’t found the need to put up an ad online. However, I was flirting with the idea of doing so. This is [...]

Erin, awesome as she is, left a comment on a previous post and I decided to answer with another post; it would’ve been too long for a comment. Here is what she said:
I feel like I know you — through IRC, 9rule, your blog, take your pick — but I’m so curious about how your [...]

The Weepies - Happiness
Let me preface this by saying that this is not being written because there’s someone that I want to date. A lot of people will read this and assume that it’s about someone, but it’s not, I assure you. Actually this is based on conversations I’ve been having with some friends.
I enjoy [...]

I’m usually on the ball with these, but this one is late, really late. Yay for working too much and hanging out with friends. It’s summer…so what do you expect? Also, July’s will be posted within the week too. Because that one is late as well, albeit, not as late.
Instead of doing the downloads by [...]

I’ve been staying away from Trans topics for the most part mainly because I’m not sure who reads my blog anymore: I no longer really care about my stats so I don’t obsessively check them. I’m definitely not worried about random people reading my blog; I’m more worried that one of my family members will [...]

I’m not really one for inspirational messages or that sort of thing but the other day, while at work, my boss just sent out an e-mail while we are waiting for some systems to come back online. It seems to fit where I’m at in my life, almost completely.
Here’s the quote:
A small effort now can [...]

I heart lists. I mean, I heart lists. Mandy recently posted her top 5 (10 really) favorite shows as a kid. I have been meaning to post a lot of lists, but haven’t really been able to fit any of them into one post, so I’m making a post just for lists. Lucky you, I [...]

Yes, you read that correctly.
Andrea is 16 years old. She’s only been kissed on the cheek, she’s never had a boyfriend, and up till Friday, she had never been asked out on a date. My other sister, Nicole, is 13 and has had more boyfriends in the past two years than anyone I’ve ever known. [...]

I’m a fairly intelligent person; alright, I think I’m damn intelligent, but that’s just my ego talking here. I’ll pretend I’m modest and say that I’m fairly intelligent, leaving room for error. I understand a lot of things, things come easily to me, I read or hear something and I remember it; I read physics [...]

Yay a meme..! I’ve been tagged by Arthus to do the 7 random things meme. I’m horrible at random things. This may sound kind of weird coming from me, considering most of what I say to my friends is completely random, but I can’t just come up with seven random things about me. I mean, [...]

Note: I originally started writing this post awhile ago, possibly a couple of years. It’s been in my drafts list for a really long time. I’ve updated the post a bit.
Note #2: I am NOT, repeat NOT, posting an online personal ad for dating. I’ve posted online ads for friends, but not dating. I do [...]

Craiglist has a great transgender forum that I ocassionally like to browse. One recent forum post mentioned that the Human Rights Campaign’s position on the Employment Non-Discrimination Act (ENDA) currently doesn’t support transgender inclusion, like it did when it first pushed for ENDA to be passed. The author of the post went on to say [...]

Scrivs recently posted a note on a Chawlk network site, Chixe, and asked what your favorite cereal is. I’ve never been able to just come right out and say this is my favorite thing. There are so many variables involved in most things that I can’t really say, for certain, which thing is my favorite. [...]

I recently started a new job, last Thursday to be precise. I really love my job and the people that I work with. It’s very laid-back and the people there are easy to get along with. It’s great because I work with so many people that I get to cover all my conversational topics; computers, [...]

Well, hopefully, but it’s looking pretty good right now. As of a few days ago, I’m looking to move out of my parents house and getting an apartment. Not by myself, I’m moving in with my friend, Ricardo. He’s returning to Olean to finish up school and asked me if I wanted to get a [...]

This month’s mixtape came about without a theme. This one was a lot harder to put together than April’s. Lisa suggested that we do a theme for May, which was all set to be “Shake Up, The Break Up”, however, it didn’t seem right to do that once I started dating again. Also, who really [...]

���Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth.” - Alan Watts
I’ve been thinking a lot about what I want in life: what do I want to do; what kind of person do I want to be. That sort of thing. It’s really not as interesting as it sounds, I promise [...]
