This year was a really great year, guys! So I thought I'd do a little blog post to review everything that's happened this year. :)

Spring semester of my freshman year was not super eventful but was pretty cool! I got to deepen my friendships with people at college and even start a K-pop club! I was busy but had a really good time. I had some crushes on guys and almost got the courage to ask one out, though those didn't end up going anywhere---and honestly, I'm glad! Everything that was meant to happen happened in time.

And then after the semester ended, I got to go to FREAKING KOREA!! I'm still so happy I got the chance to go there. I hadn't been on an actual vacation since I was probably six or seven, and even then that was nowhere near as cool as Korea! I won't go into too much detail, since my posts are up here for y'all to go read, but it was so cool and a life-changing experience that really made me want to travel and see the world! It was INSANELY cool and I really hope I get to go again!

Then I had an amazing summer. I hung out with Blue and Green a ton and we had a lot of amazing fun antics! I went back to work at a local grocery store, like I had the previous summer, and met Red, my work bestie, and some other work friends! My work life was a lot more fun than before. And, one particularly amazing thing came from that job... a really cute, really sweet guy asked me out one night! He had come through my lane before and developed a little crush on me so when he saw me a couple weeks later he asked me out. :) He became my first date and my first kiss! And that guy is now my wonderful, amazing, unbeatable boyfriend Grey!

I also had some romantic false leads---my love life was surprisingly active all of a sudden this summer! It's funny now to look back at my thoughts on those other guys at the time. It took me a bit to be sure about Grey, but now I've never been surer about anything. I am so in love with him and just want to always be by his side. <3 Grey, if you're reading this, I love you so much! I can't understate it. Grey's so accepting, understanding, mature and loving. I didn't even know if I could ever find a guy who'd be okay with me being trans! But he's so insanely supportive about everything, and he's also a major goofball and a fellow gamer. :)

Granted, the summer wasn't perfect, even love life-wise---I did have a big heartbreak---but I wouldn't trade any of it for anything. And at least that heartbreak helped me to know that Grey was for real, and trustworthy, when we started dating. :)

This semester was realllllly busy (never taking that many credits again!) but I got to develop my club and my friendships even more. I think I'm finally beginning to see who my best friends at college are! :)

Over Thanksgiving break, after talking with Blue inspired me to seize the day---or, I suppose, the guy---Grey and I became official! And shortly afterward, we said our first I love yous. <3 It was all so exciting and still is!

I also got a hyperfixation on Legally Blonde: The Musical this semester! And I got to go visit Blue out west at his college! And finally, Verivery FINALLY had a comeback this December AND got a win for it!!!

And I got to meet Grey's family and friends recently and everything seems to be going well. :) I'm so in love with him and I'm so happy to have him. I'm also so happy to have all my amazing friends, to go to a nice school, and everything else---and to have this blog! I love blogging here and I hope you guys like reading it. :)

This has been a great year and 2026 has so much in store! If you had a good year, I'm thankful for you, and if not, I hope and pray 2026 has unexpected blessings for you. <3 I'm so looking forward to it! Happy new year, everyone! I'm off to go have lunch with some old friends and then celebrate with Grey tonight!

Yesterday seemed to span the whole emotional range for me. When I first woke up, I was really nervous because I went over to Grey's apartment for the first time! He lives with his brother and sister-in-law, and I was terrified to meet his family for the first time! But they were both really nice, and according to Grey had good first impressions of me. Phew!

After that, I was just happy. I love spending time with Grey, and I'm basically addicted at this point. He has a calming presence, and he says I do, too. We watched some TV in his living room (Supernanny and Dance Moms, as expected from my highly sophisticated palate) and then we snuggled up under some blankets in his room and watched Wendigoon until we had lunch---which my highly skilled boyfriend made! I swear, he knows how to do everything. He can also play instruments, and draw, and edit videos and animate and probably like twenty other things!! Anyways, he made us some yummy fettucine alfredo and then we played some Minecraft for a few short minutes until we worked on a project for my creative writing class that he's helping with---we have to do something artistic that's outside the realm of creative writing, so I got him with his artistic multi-hyphenated-ness to help me! We worked on that for a while and then I had to go home. :( But I get to see him again tomorrow! :)

Then I kind of did nothing for a few hours---it was very relaxing. In the evening, however, I went out with my parents to their traditional Tuesday night dinner, and that's where it got more stressful. Firstly, my highly sensitive dad (/s) misgendered me and honestly, it feels like he isn't even trying to accept me as trans. It feels like a little thing to be so upset about but it was the cherry on top of my annoyances. My mum was asking what all stuff I had left to do for my study abroad semester and she meant well by it, but it stressed me out because there's a lot of stuff to do and I don't fully understand a lot of it. And I'm tired because I haven't been able to get to sleep at a decent/early time since coming back for Thanksgiving---not that I was getting enough sleep beforehand, but it's worse. So all this amounted to me being crabby. Thankfully, I had driven separately from my parents, so I left early (they're friends with one of the owners of their favourite restaurant and their chats tend to go till very late) and drove around town with my iPod on the car stereo to blow off some steam before going home.

And then I rewatched some clips of Crash Landing On You, one of my favourite K-dramas, and sobbed.

So yeah, yesterday took me through probably each one of the major emotions. Today I actually got a lot of stuff done for once, so I've been pretty happy today, and I think I'm going to have a good day tomorrow! As long as my Mean Aunt doesn't start anything at Thanksgiving---although it would be a shame not to be able to use the speech I developed in my head in case that happens, as I'm kind of proud at some of the stuff in there. If it went well, that is, and didn't end in me being disowned by the entire family. But in any case, I get to hang out with Grey tomorrow morning! So I'll at least have a highlight of my day. Toodles!
