I used to have a full head of pink hair, but by the end of it all it faded to a lovely pink/orange combo. It was really pretty, until I had like 5 inches of brown roots.
I also had hair that was about the same colour as Twizz's, until it faded to nasty swamp green. Oh well, such is the trials and tribulations of Manic Panic hairdye.
I might try for bubblegum pink again, though. Even though people would stop me and say "OH WOW I LOVE YOUR HAIR" everytime I was late for class without fail. XD

They fade so fast it's hardly worth the price of constantly going out and getting more hairdye to fix up the roots (I always find that it fades faster at the roots/ areas surrounding the roots).
However as a pasty motherfucker I find that warm colours look so much better on me than cold ones. Swamp green/blue ended up making me look a bit like a zombie, and not in a good way.
But all that is behind me as my hair is all dried out and nasty. I'm waiting for it to be a bit healthier before killing it again. XD

I wish I could pull off a mohawk but my skull is all lumpy and shit. Instead I've got this shaggy awful haircut that always ends up looking like emo kid hair despite it not originally looking like emo kid hair. Not to mention that my gran would probably kill me for looking like a bum 90% of the time.
Long hair is fun (I used to be one of those hippies with hair down to his bum), but it takes an awful long time to clean/ comb properly. Especially if you decide to murder it with a flat iron, which I did because otherwise I looked like a hobo with curly, tangled hair.
No doubt that you would look lovely with it, though. :3

Do you know why it does?
I know my hair gets all brittle and dry because, well, my mum's hair has always been brittle and dry. (of course attacking it with hairdye and the flat iron doesn't help, but oh well.) XD
I distinctly remember people playing with my hair a lot when I had long hair. I have no idea if it's a common problem or if my hair was apparently just magical like that.

The worst thing is when you fall asleep with damp hair and wake up with five billion curly cowlicks. That's when it takes you at least an hour to comb and straighten your hair asdf. Everyone tells me how lucky I am to have curly hair and I'm all like "UH NO I'M NOT. SHUT UP."
People don't get my curly hair problems. :C
People don't get my curly hair problems. :C
I only really used to go to bed with damp hair because my colour theory and yoga classes ended at 6:00 at night so by the time I got home it would be like, 7:00. So by the time I ate, got all my homework done and ate food, it would be about 10:00, so I needed a decent amount of sleep to get up at 5:30 in the morning and go to classes at 8:00. The point is that my schedule last semester was beyond fucked urgh.
COLLEGE: IT MAKES YOU LOOK LIKE SHIT.
The point is that anyone who ever said "I'M SOOOO JEALOUS OF YOUR HAIR" needs to spend one day with fine, dry curly hair. They will immediately retract their statement.

whelp. I know the trials and tribulations of an overcrowded schedule. I know that sleep deprivition thing.
Well, not so much now as I am job hunting and waiting for my applications to a new college to go through. Gives me some extra time to deal with my hair and find ways to deal with my anxiety issues. Still pretty busy though. (It's really hard to go to the job councellor if you keep dreading it so much that you choose to avoid everything. :c)

IT'S OK, MOST OF MY PROBLEMS ARE FAIRLY INCONSEQUENTIAL.
I WAS MISSING A DOLLAR SO I HAD TO GET RED BULL INSTEAD OF MONSTER.
I HAVE A ZIT ON MY CHIN.
NEOPETS IS FUCKING UP.
I STILL HAVEN'T MET THE JOB COUNCELLOR TO HELP GET A GOOD CV BUILT AFTER I LOST MY OTHER ONE IN A HARDDRIVE CRASH.
I'M ALL OUT OF WHITE RICE.
MY BOYFRIEND IS GONE AND I FEEL LONELY.
KAYLE PROBLEMS: THEY'RE IMPORTANT.
But in all seriousness, social anxiety blows and 90% of my problems would be gone if I weren't so terrified of having to interract with people. Bah.

RED BULL TASTES LIKE FERMENTED BUTTHOLES. DON'T ASK ME HOW I KNOW WHAT FERMENTED BUTTHOLE TASTES LIKE BECAUSE I DON'T REALLY KNOW, BUT IF I DID I WOULD BET THAT IT WOULD MATCH THE FLAVOUR OF A CAN OF RED BULL.
But yes, anxiety is the worst, especially when you end up having panic attacks in public. Then people end up either being horrified and thinking you're dying or trying to avoid you at any cost... Turns out it's not at all good for your social life to collapse into a hyperventilating, shaking, sobbing mess. Whoops.

Oh god, the well intended dogooders are the worst. Namely because after you're done shouting "NO GO AWAY I JUST NEED TO BE ALONE AND PASS THIS" they get this defeated, soul crushingly sad look on their faces and you end up feeling more anxious BECAUSE THEY HATE YOU FOREVER NOW OH FUCK.
Hhhhng, I've heard the "BLAH, YOU'RE JUST A FAKEY FAKERSON BOO!" thing before. I really doubt that I would fake freaking out in public spaces there, sonny. It's not like it gains me any sympathy from anyone minus the few people who do understand what anxiety disorders can do to people. Not that I'd want it because I'd much rather people just understand and back off when I do have a panic attack (no, telling me "calm down and breathe" does not help. If it did, I'm pretty sure I would be able to deal with them a lot better than I do now).
Or you get that friend who's all like "OH YEAH ME TOO!"... only it turns out that they have no idea what the fuck you're talking about and think it's the same as getting nervous before an oral presentation or job interview. Argh.

Or they start whining about the priviledges you get because THEY don't get them. (Namely, in high school I was allowed to leave the room if I felt I was going to become overwhelmed and have a freak out and go pass my anxiety attacks in the halls or nurses office).
Then they start saying shit like "well *I* didn't freak out about [insert situation here] so you're just faking it/ trying to get attention/ taking this too seriously blah blah blah." BISH YOU DIDN'T FREAK OUT BECAUSE YOU DON'T REALLY HAVE ANXIETY ISSUES.
Not to mention that many people don't realise the unfortunate physiological response that accompany panic attacks (eg. vomiting, reduced appetite, etc.) and think I've got the plague or something. :c

I needed half a dozen evaluations from the school shrink beofre they said "WELL SHIT HE'S BEEN LIKE THAT SINCE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL, BETTER LET 'IM OR ELSE HE MIGHT DIE OR SOMETHING".
I think it helped that a lot of the teachers ended up pitying me because the other kids thought it was hillarious to pick on me until I would end up having a panic attack in public. I guess I just cry tears of pure N02 or something. I still, to this day, don't know why they did that, but whatever, I've been free from high school for a few years now.
I am with you on the WHAT'S WRONG? thing. Shut up maybe I don't need you asking 50 times my god. Then they say *I'M* the one making a scene. (I've had friends literally get offended at me for not wanting to talk because I was trying to contain myself... what the heck?)

I guess they were just mean, or I made a good scapegoat because they could find something new to come up with every few weeks. The things they said and rumours they came up with were funny in retrospect (I mean, bulimic satanist animal abuser... despite donating to animal welfare organisations and being a giant athiest.)
I tend to come off as a massive asshole irl. I think it's a defense mechanism because if I scare people off, then they won't get close to me and I won't end up hurting anyone by accident. I'm a bit... socially maladrois and tend to say/do stupid shit without realising the impact of it. whoops.
At least I can re-think what I type so I don't come off as a giant prick as much as I usually do. XD

Ok cannibal shirt what?
I don't even know if I want to know the reasoning behind that one.
Sometimes I feel like I should be more approachable... Then I realise that would mean talking to people and having to converse with them. Naturally, I return to pulling my hoodie up, blasting my loud music in my ears and reading whatever book I had in my bag at the time or playing video games.
Oddly enough, people do still feel the need to talk to me despite all this. I guess sharing english or drawing 101 is a good enough excuse for people to bother me during the interminable stretches of three hour breaks. Most of them are ok but most people are insufferable because I have nothing in common with them. Argh I try my best but sometimes I just feel too inept to follow their conversations, which makes me look and feel like a prime douchebag.

That's just odd. If people took every joke I made seriously, I don't even know what would happen. I guess I would be institutionalised because I laugh at and make jokes about horrible things. There's a reason I spend a week every year during exam session posting dead baby jokes on facebook daily.
Naturally, I would be a kitten killing, baby eating monster cannibal. Whelp.
It really sucks that they completely disregarded you like that. Do you have any idea why, or is it legitmately a case of LOL WE DON'T WANT TO *ASSOCIATE* WITH YOU.
Then again, my high school was pretty shitty when it came to that kind of shit. "SISTER THINKS SHE'S A MISTER" was clever... OH NEVER. They never knew I was trans, though. I guess they just assumed I was a weird dyke or something.
I know the pain of finding someone to discuss shit you like with you. I JUST WANNA TALK ABOUT NEOPETS AND POKEMON AND HORROR MOVIES AND STARWARS WHY DO I HAVE TO ACT INTERESTED IN SKRILLEX AND SHIT I DON'T EVEN KNOW ABOUT. Nobody ever wants to talk about things I like. :c
Then there's the people who grab my sketchbook and yell WHAT THE FUCK when they get to the ponies or furries and I'm like SHIT FUCK OFF. I DID NOT LET YOU LOOK AT THAT. Urgh.

We had a "Mr.and Mrs. Drag" day. Everyone got really pissy when it was cancelled and made a petition to bring it back and everything. The whole time I was like OH GOD WILL YOU PEOPLE PLEASE SHUT UP ABOUT IT IT WASN'T ALL THAT NICE TO BEGIN WITH BECAUSE 90% OF IT WAS THE DUMB JOCKS MAKING "TRANNY" JOKES. BLARGH.
The worst thing is when you find someone with similar interests and you end up having to transfer colleges and never seeing them in person again. I had someone who would I could talk about digimon and everything. I mean, we still skype and talk on facebook but god knows it's not the same. MOst of the people I talk to look at me weird when I bring up pokémon and stuff like that and say "I stopped playing when I was 8."
I've got one of those friends who always wants to discuss social justice shit too and I'm just like "whelp. I wanna talk about fun shit today. Can we please debate who would win in a fight against Godzilla and the Cloverfield monster?" to which she replies with one of those long suffering glances, like I'm horrible for not wanting to discuss potentially triggering shit in public.
I'm too much of a doormat to get people to stop looking at my sketchbook without my permission. They've been doing it since high school because I'm a compulsive doodler and bring one everywhere so I can have something to do during lectures and shit. I guess having a sketchbook with you is automagically grounds for someone to snatch it up so they can fawn at the pretty pictures and ask you a billion stupid questions. "YES IT'S MARKER. IT'S THESE MARKERS. NO I DID NOT PRINT OUT DIGITAL ARTWORK, IT'S MARKER HOW COULD I EVEN PRINT RIGHT ONTO A BOUND SKETCHBOOK PAGE JESUS CHRIST."
I use a lot of caps lock and rude words too. It helps me express myself. :3

I know right? It's like, SHUT UP YOU PRICKS, YOU DON'T NEED TO MAKE THAT SHIT *NORMAL*. URGH.
I get you on the friends leaving because you don't agree with them. It's not my fault I grew up and don't think laughing at people is cool anymore my goodness. (The worst thing is if they then start hating you and analysing your every move to get under your skin. Urgh.)
I must admit that I never did grow up and am stupidly attached to things from my childhood. I go out and buy copies of the Great Mouse Detective and A Goofy Movie and all the films I used to watch when I was little and re-watch them over and over and over again. I play pokemon and kirby and animal crossing because they were my favourite when I was younger. I think I went out and partied with friends a grand total of once because I realised that I don't like drinking, loud music and shit like that.
I mean, I don't mind if you DO like it good for you, just shut up because I don't want to get stoned and get shitfaced.
As for the social justice thing, I mean, I don't mind it. It's a good thing for the most part but I don't need it everywhere in my life. Most of the time I just want to look at cute animals or play video games or read comic books.
the OH MY GOD YOU SHOULD BE AN ARTIST thing is fucking horrible. No, I TRIED fine arts for two years, I don't like it. It takes away my will to do anything after all my schoolwork. If anyone loves art, I tell them NOT to go into visual arts. It's fucking awful.

The only time people dying is funny is when it's in dark comedies. I can't make light of tragedies like the death of an actual person, no matter who they were. I mean, I can feel relieved when horrible people are gone for good, but I can never cheer or laugh or make tasteless jokes.
I do actually collect toys and things. Little figurines, collectable tins, plushies. My brother did spill kool aid on a part of our collection, but most of them aren't worth anything because I actually played with them and shit when I was younger. I don't want a prestine, perfect mint condition collection, I just wanna pet some plastic ponies and pose them in silly ways.
As for Social activism, I tried being really involved and it turned me into a neurotic, depressive mess. I can still discuss things and pass my commentary on politics, but trying to get involved outside fundraisers for Mira and Autism Quebec really drains me physically and mentally.
I'm still trying to toughen myself up mentally and emotionally so I can go into psychology next semester without being too... me.
As for the art thing... I've been through it. I've spent two years in a Visual arts program. Most of the classes were kind of fun (I did love our sculpture and woodwork class, as well as my cross-curricular in Cinema) most of the classes were really pressing on my creativity. After drawing your hands in pen for a few hours, you do NOT want to draw anything else for the rest of the week. Any of the flakey OOOOOH I WANNA WORK FOR DISNEY OR DRAW MANGAS~ types were weeded out within two weeks because the program required a lot of work and a lot of money. (Acrylic paints for colour theory class don't come cheap, nor does everything you require for your final thesis in digital art, which was a physical copy art book of some sort.)
Those who could do all that and sill maintain the will to art were really fucking badass. I, and dozens of others, did not. Pity because most of the people in the art program were incredibly sweet, incredibly talented and incredibly friendly.

I love stuffed animals. I still have a ton of them from when I was small and my big brother always gets me more when he can afford them. I still give all of them names and hug them and stuff. X3
But that feeling that you're utterly powerless against things is totally crushing. That and the hypocrisy in some of those circles just really gets to me (I mean, really? We're going to campaign for gay rights and you're going to say that pansexuals don't exist? That's going to help?). I mean, I still donate to charities and raise awareness and help where I can, but It's a lot healthier for me to step back.
I need to squirrel up my funds so I can afford the hundreds of textbooks I need for my psychology courses asdf. I'm super pumped for them, though because I get to study one of the things that interests me the most (that being how the human mind works) as well as it helping me in my future uni classes (childcare and child development. AKA Teaching at the elementary school level).
It sucks that you ended up saddled with that transphobic person though. I know that feeling. I've had to tell people that Tranny and Shemale weren't cool words to use. It's not fun.
We mostly got to do abstract stuff in high school art, which was fun, I suppose. Didn't at all get me ready for college level art classes though, as I walked in with only a bit of self taught knowledge on proportions, colour theory and compostion. I never got to portrait work, and still life was more of a light study, but life drawing was amazingly helpful once I got over the fact that OMG THERE ARE NAKED PEOPLE IN MY CLASSROOM. After a while, you don't even notice that they're naked because you're too busy trying to get the lines of the pose down before they change angles.
It's funny that you mention copying photos because that's the first thing my Drawing teacher told us NOT to do. XD
But yeah, I prefer art as a hobby. It's good knowing that I can draw from life somewhat, but I prefer drawing cartoons for the hell of it. I DO occasionally do "serious" work, but for the most part it's something I like to do for myself. I dunno, it just makes me feel a lot better to be able to control my art than to have to do something someone else wants me to do.

I DO occasionally do "serious" work, but for the most part it's something I like to do for myself. I dunno, it just makes me feel a lot better to be able to control my art than to have to do something someone else wants me to do.
My stuffed animals have really silly names on account of me naming them when I was eight, ha ha. My favourite is this old stuffed tiger I got at age six called Mr.Stripes, so yeah.
URGH that crowd really was annoying. It's like when I associated with them, it seemed like they only cared about the first three letters of LGBT. Like EH, BUT YOU'RE ICKY AND YOUR SEXUALITY DOESN'T EXIST. These were the people who still said "transexual" even if I told them it made me feel awkward. (Idk, it makes the whole thing feel like a psychiatric condition instead of a legit identity.)
I do! I really like kids and they like me. I like feeling like I could help those kids and give them everything I never got when I was in elementary school. (Eg. actually caring and not yelling at them for shit they clearly can't control. I swear I had a teacher who was AFRAID of me for some reason. Idk.)
Everyone's said and did shit they regret. I remember saying the words "faggot" and "retard" constantly during my EDGY AND REBELLIOUS DON'T GIVE TWO FUCKS ABOUT YOU phase. I've made some remarks I would kick myself over if I could. Eventually we grow out of that shit. (Or we don't and become human slime molds. I don't really hang out with those, though).
I could see how she could become a pain. The guys at my school were. Urgh.
The first time, I could hardly concentrate because I was freaking out really bad like "OH MAN THIS LADY IS MY MOM'S AGE WHAT IF SHE HAS KIDS OH GOD HOW WOULD THEY FEEL ABOUT THIS WHY AM I LOOKING AT THIS NAKED LADY WHY DOES MY TEACHER INSIST ON US DRAWING GENITALIA OH GOD."
Our teacher kept telling us it would make our art less organic and flatter. I figure that they would end up needing to solve this in MORTAL KOMBAAAAAAAT!
I figure art just needs to make people happy, or let them pass any negative emotions. :3

Ah, most of the names my plushies have a really doofy. Case and point in Mr.Stripes the tiger and Mr.Squeaky VonBlueturtle the blue turtle. I need to grow some creativity.
My issue with transexual is that it just makes everything sound like a condition, as opposed to an identity. Then again, I don't speak for everyone and if anyone's comfortable with it, it's cool. It's just that the word really squicks me out, urgh.
Awww, don't worry. I'm sure you've got something that you can do too. I just happen to be good with kids due to my seemingly infinate patience. (Well, that patience runs out when people do and say really ignorant shit or act like assholes, but even then little kids don't really get to that point).
Don't worry too much about it. I've still got some ancient posts on my old livejournal and deviantart accounts where I say incredibly stupid shit. The point is that some people judge, but the ones that are worth having around will see that you've grown since then. Personally, I don't really mind since you seem like a very mature and good person now. :3
Everyone was staring at each oter like "OH FUCK WE REALLY HAVE TO DRAW NAKED LADY BOOBIES". After the first class, we ended up being ok. The only awkward thing was that we got only male models for the rest of the year, but the same woman as on our first class during our exam. HEY I WANTED THE GUY WHO SAID MY PICTURE OF HIM LOOKED OK I LIKED HIM.

Awwww, thank you. To be fair, I must have been like 8 when I came up with most of them, which explains the pink poodle named Pinky-Poo and so on. XD
Once again, I figure that people should be free to label themselves as they please, but it was really awkward to have people impose this label on me when I told them not to. I agree with the lumping that in thing. I recently became a member of the NDP and the entry form had "I IDENTIFY AS GAY, BISEXUAL,LESBIAN OR TRANSGENDER" on it. Uh, one of these things is NOT like the others. one of these things just does not belong.
I'm sure you'll find something. I think it's more important to concentrate on the small things until you find your true calling. Take things step by step. You're smart enough that you'll find something you passionate about and can do well~!
I understand. I was pretty awful during my Angsty-Hardcore-FUCKEVERYONE I'M GOING TO ANNOY EVERYONE SO OFFENSIVE DGAF phase. My friends will sometimes bring up things that happened then and I just feel like crawling into a hole in the ground. Urgh. I want to move on, you know? I'm not an asshole anymore.
I imagine it must be. To be honest, it was pretty awkward to have the guy looking at the artworks during our break, but he gave me this big cheesy grin and said something along the lines of "LOOKIN' GOOD, HANDSOME" and it became magically unawkward for some reason. XD

It's a political party here in Canada. They're pretty much the left here (Basically, the Liberals are in the centre, the Bloc Quebecois is the FAR FAR left, the Green Party is completely irrelevant and the Conservatives are the right). Since the Conservatives cut that law that gives the parties funding on a per vote basis, they've been offering membership for a five dollar fee to make up for it. You basically get to vote for the leaders and representatives amongst other things. It's pretty neat, but I do wish they didn't lump those things together on their sign up sheet.
Man, I would love to have a shirt that expresses that sentiment minus the whole "lumping gender in with sexuality" thing. Urgh. It bugs me.
I get you on that HEY REMEMBER [insert inside joke based on something horribly ~edgy~ and not at all cool] THAT WAS A GOOD TIME type things. UH NO. IT WASN'T. I WAS A NASTY FUCKER BACK THEN I DON'T EVEN... HOW CAN YOU SAY THAT WITH A SMILE?
I figure that if it ain't relevant now, there's no real reason to bring it up. It's beyond me how people don't realise that sometimes people grow up, urgh.
It's still a pretty funny story. I liked that guy a hell of a lot better than the guy who frowned the entire time. He was kinda scary. D:

Ah, it's fine. I figure foreign politics (especially american ones) are more confusing than here. X3
COMIC SANS? ARE YOU SHITTING ME? wow, that's just... wow. Does no one know how to use proper typography anymore? I mean, there are thousands of good, free fonts out there and comic sans is not one of them. ASDSF.
The point is that you've changed though. If people choose to disregard that, I figure it's best to just safely cut ties with them. Make your life a No Assholes Allowed zone.
I've got friends who choose to ignore the fact that a lot of the stuff I did and said in the past was wrong and dumb (I suppose because I was so damn "cool" or something). That's what frustrates me the most. It's like, hhhhhng people did not like me when I acted like a jerk. Now I am nice and suddenly people can tollerate my existance. How is this hard to understand?
I have no idea why he did so. Maybe he was achey or was having a bad day? I dunno, but it was fairly intimidating, whelp.

No kidding. I mean, I've been following the adventures of misters Romney, Gingrich and Santorum and losing faith in our neighbouring country.
I mean, to give you an example of hour or politics work, when the head of the Conservative party tried to open Gay Marriage again a few years back (in an attempt to repeal it), even the other members of the conservative party we're like "THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING, HARPER. WE'RE PRETTY SURE THIS IS A DEAD ISSUE. THE GAYS'LL MARRY AND THAT'S THAT." I have no idea how people like Santorum can still have a following and not be laughed right the fuck out of politics.
Mind you, we get a lot of shit slinging, but it's less LOOK HE'S A SECRET MUSLIM and more LOOK AT ALL THE TAXES THOSE GUYS WILL MAKE US PAY.
COMIC SANS IS THE WORST FONT. THE WORST WORST FONT. I fully support launching Comic Sans users into space. No, using it "ironically" will not save you.
It's really weird how resistant people are to the fact that CHANGE HAPPENS. I'm pretty sure I've grown since age 14, omg. It's what happens when you grow brain cells and shit. People just need to deal.
I hate being naked, oh my god. It just feels so weird and I hate the way my body looks, hhhhng. (Then again, I have a host of issues because of being trans and body issues and shit). I honestly think nude models are extremely brave for doing what they do, because the idea of being scrutinised by a class full of art students, some of whom are still in their "high school" mentality... IT'S HORRIFYING. D:

Rick really is the scum of the earth. I feel ready to officially want to punch an eagle in the face if he ever gets elected anything other than Official Head Human Plunger or Official Punching Bag. I mean, jesus fuck I thought our conservatives were bad, but he takes the proverbial cake. D:
I KNOW I MEAN, WHY *DO* PEOPLE CARE ANYWAY? IT JUST CONFUSES ME.
I mean it, there are so many acceptible comic fonts out there THERE ARE GOOD ALTERNATIVES, PEOPLE. I'm partial to Action Man myself.
I mean, am really glad that some of my friends have joined me in becoming better people, but for the most part I've lost hope in my pals. If I have to shout about being trans in a crowded mall, I don't think it's a good idea to keep hanging with 'em. Urgh.
I could never do it either. NOPE NOT GONNA HAPPEN. I mean, I can't even hang out naked on my own or with my Boyfriend. I am that messed up. X3

WHY WOULD THEY SUPPORT THE MAN WHO ALMOST SAID THE N-WORD ON TELEVISION HOLY SHIT? My mum said the only up side to having that man there is that "he makes the democrats look even better." I would agree, but I still want to take a power sander to his face every time he opens his mouth to say another stupid thing.
Action Man is a comic font. It's slightly similar to the one used in american superhero comics and is a good alternative to Comic Sans if you need a comics font. :3
Urgh, it was the worst. I think I shouted a bit louder than intended, but no one said "she" after my "BECAUSE I'M A MAN WITHOUT A Y CHROMOSOME" rant. Whoopsie-doodle. I do wish I didn't have to rant about it, though. Hhhhng.
AH GOOD I AM NOT ALONE IN MY "OH MAN I CAN'T BE NAKED" SITUATION. WE'D BEST FORM A CLUB. WE WOULD WEAR T-SHIRTS AT ALL TIMES. IT WOULD BE NEATO AND SUPER TERRIFIC.

Unfortunately, though, I've seen so many people that are just as stupid as he is and shit. It's just discouraging and makes me want to punch things. At least there are sane people who realise that he is literally a human slug.
I KNOW. WHY HASN'T ANYONE DISCONTINUED THE FUCK OUT OF IT. IT'S REALLY GOT NO POINT IN EXISTING!
I swear, I shouldn't have to put up with this crap. It just annoys the living heck out of me when I have to justify my identity to people. Yes, I am still trans today. I was trans yesterday. I'm pretty sure I'll be trans tomorrow. It's not like saying "BUT YOU WERE BORN WITH A BAJINA BLUH BLUH BLUH" a billion times is going to change that. I don't get why people think I'm going to change. It's not like I have a history of changing these things. I just wish people would take me a bit more seriously sometimes...
THAT IS THE REQUIREMENT FOR ALL THE THINGS I DO.
"DO YOU WANT TO GO TO THE WATER PARK?"
"WILL I BE ALLOWED TO BE THAT GUY WHO WEARS A T-SHIRT AT ALL TIMES?"
I SWEAR REVEALLING KAYLE-FLESH IS SOMETHING I JUST CAN'T DO. OH MY GOD.

OH MY GOD YOU'RE RIGHT. I AM SO SORRY, I HOPE I DIDN'T COME OFF AS A GIANT SLUGGIST. SOME OF MY BEST FRIENDS ARE SLUGS.
Asdf I swear, I am ready to punch the next fucker who tries to pull that "BUT YOU'RE JUST CONFUUUUUUSED YOU POOR CONFUSED BABBY" thing on me. I've heard it too often now and it just makes my blood boil. Why can't people ever consider that what's in your pants does not make a man/woman. God I feel like I'm on crazy pills everytime I have to explain that sex =/= gender. I DON'T WANT TO PLAY SCHOOL TEACHER I JUST WANT TO PLAY VIDEO GAMES.
THE POOL IS THE WORST.
"HEY, YOU! YOU CAN'T WEAR A SHIRT IN THE POOL!"
"WATCH ME MOTHERFUCKER."
I mean it, I don't care if I end up with a sopping wet t-shirt for the rest of the day, I just can not go swimming without one. I pretty much am only naked when it is am absolute necessity, and even then I don't like it.

I really do wish there were more positive media portrayals of trans people. Maybe the I wouldn't have to educate people and shit. :|
I HATE GOING TO PUBLIC POOLS, ARGH. I HAVE THESE AWFUL GIRLY LEGS AND SKINNY ARMS AND I DON'T WANT TO SHOW ALL THAT OFF, HHHHHNG.
Hence why I sit in a bathtub full of cold water with a bowl of neopolitan icecream and a diet coke instead. Kayle likes to live dangerously in the summer, clearly.

Oh my god, I think I tried to watch Degrassi like, once. I am not good with teen dramas. They make me yell at the morons on the screen. Then again, I tend to yell at the television a lot.
I hate going to pools because HHHHHNG I FEEL LIKE EVERYONE IS WAAAATCHING ME. NOT TO MENTION LITTLE KIDS AND GROWN-ASS ADULTS PISSING IN THE WATER LIKE IT'S NO BIG DEAL. NO I DO NOT WANT TO SWIM IN PEE WATER.
but yes, I live my summers as a pasty kid indoors. It saves me from having to buy litres of aloe vera after the smathering of sunscreen inevitably fails to keep this flesh from burning. D:

I can't yell at cartoons except if it's to yelp "HEY IT'S ADVENTURE TIME! COOL!" whenever I flip the channel and land on that show. I always keep forgetting they made a series based of that short.
OH MY GOD I CAN'T EVEN IMAGINE HOW AWKWARD THAT WOULD FEEL. I mean, I do admire folks with nice mods because man they're soooo cool, but I don't think I ever actively stare. I don't get how someone could feel ok glaring at people because they wanna wade. I monopolise the shallow end with my mum when we go swimming because she can't swim and I have joint problems and don't like cramping up in the deep end.
We don't have any beaches around here, though, minus the edge of the St.Lawrence River but no one swims there because it's so polluted. X3
I burn within like, 10 minutes. I need a tonne of sunblock just so that I don't get covered in sunburn, so I end up at the end of summer looking like a ghost. oops.

I LOVE ADVENTURE TIME TOO! OH MY GOSH AAAAAAAAH.
I swear I would die if people stared at me all the bloody time. People can be really fucking rude sometimes, oh my god.
The shallow end in pools is the best because I can bug everyone by trying to do handstands underwater. (As in HEY HEY LOOK AT THIS LOOK I CAN DO A HANDSTAND LOOOOOOK ARE YOU LOOKING!?!). Also it's more fun to play with pool toys and stuff in the shallow end. I think I might have the mental maturity of an eight year old.
Oh my god, it's horrifying that you ended up almost drowning! Thank goodness you managed to make it put of there okay.
One of my ex-friends pushed me fully clothed into the deep end once and my brother had to rescue me with one of the emergency buoys. That was not a good day.
Thanks! It's a bit reassuring that it's apparently hip to look like a ghost nowadays. Kids used to call me Dracula in elementary school because I was such a pale little shit. :CCC

Why would anyone stare just because you're wearing a dress? D:
I'm pretty sure it's not weird or illegal for people to be wearing dresses, oh my god. Urgh. Good on y'all for getting REVEEEEENGE though because that is just incredibly rude. Yuck.
It's okay if you can't swim. I'll bet that you can flail/ do tricks like a champ. Plus you get to relax in the stairs/ on the ladder which is pretty fucking awesome.
Little kids can swim better than me, ha ha. I can dog paddle and do a move I call "the awkward breaststroke but not really kind of swimmy thing". In short, I move very awkwardly even in the water. I pretty much just grab a pool noodle and go "THIS IS MY NOBLE STEED."
It's okay I'm sure you'll be able to go back there in like, 5 years. By then all those little kids will be sullen, angst teenagers and spend too much time twittering their facebooks or whatever to pay attention to you.
Wait, this means I can actually be something before it was trendy. BRB BEING A *PALENESS* HIPSTER.

I wouldn't know what dresses feel like because I haven't worn them in years. Either way, not a big deal, I figure I would be more inclined to double take if someone walked around completely stark naked. X3
Oh my god I can't deal with people trying to pull me into the pool when I'm chillin' on the edge. Most of the time people don't, but my boyfriend will drip cold water onto my thighs, aaaaargh that is the worst.
Awwww, I always ride my pool noodles Pony style. My brother and I used to have jousting matches on our pool noodles but he's apparently too old for that. :CCC
UH OH. I GUESS YOU'D BETTER FIND ANOTHER POOL. I KNOW I CAN'T GO BACK TO STORES WHERE I FORGOT MY WALET ONCE OR FELL ON MY ASS OR SOMETHING. D:

OH GOD I CAN IMAGINE. Water in the nose is the worst fucking thing, asdf. I tend to punch people who pull/ push me in the water without my consent, so I guess that's why people stopped doing it. XD
Aww. I'm usually horribly clumsy but magically get better balance in the water? On land I trip/ fall/ break things constantly though. :c
Oh man why would I store my wallet in my back pocket? Oh no, that goes in my giant messenger bag because I'm scared that I'll drop it if I keep it in my pockets. X3

I DON'T THINK PEOPLE UNDERSTAND JUST HOW MUCH ROOM I REQUIRE IN A BED. I MAY ALLOW SOMEONE TO SHARE WITH ME ONCE IN A WHILE, BUT THEY SHOULD PROBABLYEXPECT TO EITHER GET PUSHED OFF THE BED AT SOME POINT OR WAKE UP WITH ME MOOSHED INTO THEM BECAUSE I WAS ROLLING OVER AND THEN GOT IN THE WAY.
TURNS OUT I MOVE A LOT WHEN I SLEEP, AND I REALLY LOVE MY SLEEP. THINGS THAT INTERFERE WITH MY SLEEP GET DIRE PUNISHMENTS, UNLESS THEY ARE CATS (BECAUSE CATS ARE OUR FLUFFY OVERLORDS).

I'M THE SAME WAY. I NEED ROOM FOR MYSELF, MR.STRIPES, OSHAWOTT AND WOOGLE (MY STUFFED ANIMALS) AND THEN THE REMAINING ROOM BELONGS TO WHOEVER WANTS IT.
ALSO I WAKE UP WITH MY STUFFED ANIMALS ON THE FLOOR ALL THE TIME AND I ALWAYS PICK THEM UP AND SAY SORRY TO THEM BECAUSE OMG MY POOR BABBUS.
ALSO I THINK YOU WERE SUPPOSED TO DRAW SCOOTER OR SOMETHING. I FIGURE I'VE GOT LIKE, A TON OF REFS OF HIM SO YOU CAN DRAW HIM DOING WHATEVER. THANK YOU SO MUCH, AH! <3
ALSO I'M GLAD YOU BEAT YOUR ART BLOCK. I'M STILL WRESTLING WITH MINE. :C

OH MAN, I'VE GOT A JAGUAR PLUSH THAT'S ABOUT THAT SIZE BUT I THINK I LEFT IT AT MY DAD'S PLACE BECAUSE I HAD NO ROOM FOR IT HERE. IT WAS ONE OF THE BEST GIFTS EVER AND IT CAME WITH A BABY JAGUAR TOO. IT WAS PRETTY INTENSE.
I'M A LAZY BUTTHOLE TOO, URGH. SOMETIMES I WISH I WAS LESS LAZY BUT MEH, THAT WOULD REQUIRE EFFORT...
I'M A LAZY BUTTHOLE TOO, URGH. SOMETIMES I WISH I WAS LESS LAZY BUT MEH, THAT WOULD REQUIRE EFFORT...
I NEED TO. I'M PRETTY SURE THEY'RE IN MY DAD'S STORAGE LOCKER WHICH SUCKS SINCE IT WAS BROKEN INTO. STILL, HE HASN'T REPORTED ANY GIANT STUFFED ANIMALS BEING STOLEN BECAUSE THAT'S NOT EXACTLY SOMETHING A THIEF COULD RESELL.
BUT SERIOUSLY IF SOMEONE TOOK MOMMA JAGUAR AND BABBY JAGUAR I WILL SCREAM AND BECOME A VIGILANTE SUPERHERO TO TRACK THEM DOWN AND RECLAIM MY PRIZE. >:C

I WOULD PROBABLY SNAG STUFFED ANIMALS BUT MY FATHER CONFIRMED THAT MOMMA JAGUAR WAS STILL SAFE AND SOUND ALONG WITH BABBY JAGUAR. HE DID FIND MY CONCERN A BIT WEIRD BUT WHATEVER MAN, THIS WAS AN IMPORTANT THING.
I WOULD PROBABLY END UP IN A BATMAN COSTUME AND EVERYTHING, THOUGH. I *AM* THE NIGHT.

PRETTY MUCH. I'VE HAD MOST OF THESE GUYS SINCE I WAS A KID. THEY ARE MY FWIENDS!
OH GOD I DON'T THINK MY BOYFRIEND WOULD LIKE IT IF I GOT HOMESTUCK HORNS. ALREADY HE DEALS WITH ME BRINGING "HoNk HoNk >:o)!" INTO OUR CONVERSATIONS. MY GOD. I THINK I MIGHT BE ANNOYING HIM WITH THAT AND I DON'T THINK HE WOULD DEAL WITH ME BEING A HOMESTUCK FOR SERIOUS.

BEST FWIENDS FOREVER!
I DON'T EVEN KNOW HOW. HE'S JUST LAZY ABOUT READING THINGS OR SOMETHING BUT I'M LIKE "YOU SHOULD READ IT SO YOU CAN HELP ME CHOOSE WHETHER I LIKE TAVROS OR GAMZEE BEST GODDAMN YOU TRENT! >:C".
I DON'T THINK THAT CONVINCED HIM THOUGH. I WILL WEAR HIM DOWN EVENTUALLY, THOUGH! C:<

TAVROS AND GAMZEE ARE MY FAVOURITE TROLLS FOR SERIOUS. OH MY GOSH WORDS CAN NOT EXPLAIN HOW AWESOME AND AMAZING THEY ARE. I KINDA LIKE VRISKA TOO BECAUSE SHE IS SO TOTALLY MANICAL AND IT'S ALMOST HILLARIOUS JUST HOW VILLANOUS SHE CAN BE.
I SWEAR HE KEEPS SAYING HE'LL TRY TO READ IT BUT THEN HE DOESN'T BECAUSE HE IS A LAZY BUTTHOLE URGH. GODDAMN IT. SOMEHOW I STILL MANAGE TO LOVE HIM ANYWAY.
I LOVE HOMESTUCK TOO, HA HA. IT'S ALMOST EMBARRASSING HOW MUCH I LOVE IT DESPITE THE FACT THAT I AM LIKE, THE WORLD'S SLOWEST READER AND I HAVEN'T GOTTEN ALL THAT FAR IN IT AT ALL. XD

I THINK I LIKE VRISKA BECAUSE SHE'S SUCH AN UNREPENTANT ASSHOLE. SHE LITERALLY DOES ALL SHE WANTS BECAUSE SHE WANTS TO WITHOUT GIVING ONE MISERABLE LITTLE FUCK ABOUT THE LIVES OF OTHERS. IN A WAY, I THINK IT JUST MAKES HER UNBELIEVABLY FUN.
I'M STILL NOWHERE NEAR DONE. I FINALLY GOT PASSED THE SCRATCH AND SHIT, BUT I STILL CAN ONLY READ IT WHEN I'M AT HOME WHICH MEANS I AM THE WORLD'S SLOWEST READER ASDF. IT'S REALLY SAD TOO BECAUSE MY PAL WANTS TO TALK ABOUT IT BUT I KEEP SAYING "OH, I'M NOT LANDED THERE YET. OH, I HAVEN'T GOTTEN THAT FAR YET. OH, I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT YOU'RE TALKING ABOUT..." :c

MY BOYFRIEND KEEPS TELLING ME THAT I'M LIKE TAVROS BECAUSE I KEEP GOING ON ABOUT HOW NON-CONFRONTATIONAL AND POOR SELF-ESTEEM STRUCKEN HE IS. I GUESS THAT'S PROBABLY RIGHT ALTHOUGH I CAN IMAGINE BEING LIKE VRISKA WOULD BE PRETTY AWESOME. JUST BEING A TOTAL JERK BECAUSE IT'S FUN AND YOU CAN AND ALL. X3
URGH SAME HERE. I DUNNO, THEY JUST DON'T SEEM AS LIKEABLE AS THE OTHER KIDS. I MEAN, I REALLY LIKED THE OTHERS, AND THESE GUYS ARE JUST A BIT BLAND IN COMPARISON. KIND OF LIKE HOW I ENDED UP MESSING UP MY USUALLY DELICIOUS MARINATED TOFU RECIPE THE OTHER DAY. :CCC
ANYTHING THAT REMINDS ME OF BLAND TOFU IS NO GOOD AT ALL. HHHHHNG.

I FEEL PRETTY MUCH THE SAME WAY. HE REALLY IS JUST ADORABLY PRECIOUS, HA HA!
AND PRETTY MUCH THE SAME ABOUT THE ALPHA KIDS. I JUST CAN'T CONNECT TO THEM RIGHT NOW. I FIGURE THAT MAYBE THEY'LL GET BETTER AS I GO ALONG, BUT I REALLY CAN'T COMMIT TO READING RIGHT NOW BECAUSE EVERYTIME I TRY I JUST GET COMPLETELY DISTRACTED.
IT REALLY IS! I USE LEMON JUICE, LEMON ZEST, PEPPER, BALSAMIC VINEGAR AND SOY SAUCE! I THINK I DIDN'T LEAVE IT TO MARINATE LONG ENOUGH THIS TIME THOUGH. :C

I'VE DELVED A BIT FURTHER SINCE I MANAGED TO GET ON THE GOOD COMPUTER A BIT MORE AND SO FAR IT'S JUST... REALLY HARD TO KEEP READING? I'M HOPING THEY GET A BIT BETTER, BUT I'M STILL FINDING IT HARD TO CONNECT WITH THEM. I DO LIKE JANE AND ROXY A BIT THOUGH, SO HOPEFULLY THEY'LL CONTINUE TO REDEEM THIS BIT FOR ME. I DON'T EVEN WANT TO GET STARTED ON THE SHIPPING STUFF THOUGH. ASDF.
I FUCKING LOVE BALSAMIC VINEGAR OMG. IT'S COOL THAT YOU DON'T THOUGH, IT'S NOT A REQUIREMENT TO BE A COOL BRO. :3
I FUCKING LOVE BALSAMIC VINEGAR OMG. IT'S COOL THAT YOU DON'T THOUGH, IT'S NOT A REQUIREMENT TO BE A COOL BRO. :3
I CAN'T EVEN WITH ALL THE SHIPPING. I'VE NEVER REALLY BEEN ONE FOR SHIPPING CHARACTERS TOGETHER THOUGH SO MAYBE I SIMPLY WILL NEVER COMPREHEND THAT SIDE OF FANDOM? I'M GLAD TO HEAR THAT JOHN AND JADE COME BACK SOON BECAUSE I REALLY LIKE THEM! JOHN'S STILL MY FAVOURITE CHARACTER. SO I REALLY WANT TO SEE HIM AGAIN. :3
EVERYBODY'S JUST SO MUCH COOLER THAN ME, AH HA HA.
EVERYBODY'S JUST SO MUCH COOLER THAN ME, AH HA HA.
WOW OKAY I THINK I MISSED A LOT OF STUFF OR SOMETHING BECAUSE I ONLY SEE VERY LITTLE OF THE SHIPPING STUFF IN THE COMIC. THEN AGAIN I AM LITERAL-MINDED AS HECK SO MAYBE I'M JUST PISS POOR AT READING BETWEEN THE LINES AND SEEING THE HINTS AND SHIT.
IF YOU SAY SO, BRO. I DON'T REALLY FEEL LIKE ONE OF THE COOL KIDS.
