What indeed.
So, this blog is my third now. My first was "Queer Girl, Straight Hair." Interestingly enough, I was/had neither of those. Once I realized I was, in fact, genderfluid and really would rather be called a boy, I looked for a new name. That brought me to "Quill and Shield" on Wordpress. For its short four posts, it had a drastically different tone.
QGSH had drifted to recaps of events I went to more than what I really wanted to talk about. And while I had fun going to those events and it gave me a real excuse to do so, it wasn't extremely helpful. Quill and Shield 1.0 had all feelings posts, things about my bucket list and the goings-on of a closeted questioning high school senior. Both of those are private now, so don't bother trying to find them.
I got busy, I didn't find it a good coping mechanism anymore, and I drifted away from that blog. Fell out of a routine.
That brings us to today. It's two and a half years later, and I really want to get back into this. My last post went over a senior bucket list that I accomplished...most of, I guess, but it was disappointing. I didn't get to do one of the items (a trip to Salem) until just last year, and I still haven't been to the Garden in the Woods.
Summer is coming, and fast. Here's where I'm at with my bucket list and what's going on in my life.
Personally, I'm a 19-year old that really likes writing, cosplay, dumb jokes, and movies. I'm transmasculine and going through my second puberty, which is the worst. And totally worth it. I am also in a relationship with someone I love very much, and I'll give them the code name Atlas. It's also an open relationship, so if you see me yelling over a generic crush, don't worry.
I am an education major, staying on campus over the summer so that I don't have to stay cooped up at home all summer. I'd love to visit, but there's no way I can stand being stranded all summer without a car of my own. Plus, I have friends staying here this summer. More personally, my partner is living here this summer. I get to actually spend time with people that I love and want to see.
So, without further ado...
Summer 2019 bucket list:
