Write-a-thon and memories

Hey everybody,
Today begins the write-a-thon. I will begin my writing later today after I tweak my story plan a little. Then I just have to do some revisions to the first two chapters I already written and begin the writing process. I also plan next Saturday to post the first Chapter on my blog. So read and enjoy.

Today is also fathers day and it makes me remember my dad who died last year. This is the second fathers day without him. I really do miss him but I also feel that I would have no possibilities of transitioning at home. Right now the only thing holding me back is a lack of money which I'm slowly saving up. Hopefully today goes good and I don't have a nervous breakdown or something.

Well I look forward to posting again especially when I have the novel to post.

Thoughts on one's birthday.

Today is my birthday and I turn 23. I been thinking a lot on many different things but mostly on what I have achieved so far. Fact is the last thing I did that was so great as a 22yr old is graduate from collage. My luck I graduated when the economy was the way it is. But it's not just that. I didn't apply myself as best as I could and have alot of ideas and projects left unfinished.

That's why my current goals is to strive for a better future. I think the best way to do that is go back and finish all my ideas. Be they webcomics, novels, or game projects. I feel I can't give up on my dreams just yet till I at leas finish most of the ideas I ever came up with. That doesn't mean there published and making me money or anything. But if I can have something to show, be it a manuscript, a website with my art and comics on it, or a working game mod based on my ideas I can load up and play.

I also plan to move forward with my transition by first doing the things that will make it easier. I will continue going to the and finish losing more weight so it will be easier when I do start hormones. And I will try everything in my power to get money to fund my transition. And finally I hope to help my mom understand me easier as i feel I need her emotional help when I begin.

The next time ya hear for me on hear I'll have something to show ya. That's a promise.

Trials

Today after me and my sister came back from the gym she read a passage from this small booklet the church I go to gives out every three months. It's called your daily word and each day as a passage and what this passage means. My sister read a passage that described how god some time gives us pain and troubles to make us better people. And it really touched me.

A lot of the stuff I'm going through now is in a way making me better. I feel if I graduated landed a job in the game industry would have left me very open for a big fall that would have done more damage down the line. I am not the best artist in the world and maybe even rate below average to those found in the game industry. The reason is at some point I stopped putting enough effort in my work or going the extra mile. The fact that it seem that the teachers were just passing us to get us outta the school may have helped in making me this way.

I didn't listen to some of my friends when they say that I'm all alk and don't finish many of my ideas. How I needed to sop playing games and concentrated on improving my skills so I could make them. But now after going through a lot of depression in the last months since graduating I'm starting to get back on track. Maybe not in making art for games but at least in my writing. I plan to finish my first novel this summer and hope that I can get it published.

I'm continuing on training my voice and learning other things that will be very useful in passing as a women when I begin my transition. I'm beating the lazy out of me and maturing myself. When I am in a better place financially I will progress with my transition, until then I will focus on making my self better and thanking god every day for the pain he gave me to realize my faults. And giving me the time to improve my self so when I do break in to games or become a author I will be the best that I can be and not come in giving a bad impression.

Well thanks for listening.

New Horizons

Hey everybody,
Just wanted to say hi and give a update on things in my life. Recently I went to a doctor to get antidepressants. The reason is cause for awhile now I lost the desire to do anything, almost like I didn't have enough energy or dive to do a lot in the day. I feel a little more energized but it's hard to tell since I just recently got the sims 3 game and it's hard for me not to play it non-stop.

Recently I've talked to a friend who is looking for a new job in a separate career from the one I'm trying to get into. She told me the importance of making a web presence. It would help in finding and even getting jobs in the field you desire to get into. So been thinking about my web presence and the project I want to do. I feel I now have a plan for that which may have a few kinks to work out. But I'll be glad to you more as soon as I fully figure it out.

Well for now Talk to you soon.
