Something fascinating and greatly enjoyable to know a single forum thread I read when I was 14 nearly daily is still around

I submitted 3 poems to my uni's lit mag, and a lit mag I got a submission accepted to is being posted at the end of November! Here's the website if you want to check it out, my great poetry friends Florence and Daulton run it

Puts a grin on my face that this page doesn't print a 404, I can recognise some names, and the comment tag left by chabib at the bottom is still there.

I sold my house.

this could be good... moving away at last?

damn right! I was 20 when I first joined. Now I'm 42.

do you also have a new house, or you're just staying homeless?
I'm considering to sell my house(apartment actually) and get a "new" one. I'm sick and tired having to explain my neighbours that I don't want them to start a party at 5AM and party on until the early morning. They get pissed off and violent at me while all I want to do is sleep.
But mortgage is such a hell over here, I'm not sure what I can buy instead if I can buy at all. Should do a checkup haven't done it yet. Renting a place is even worse btw, not that I necessarily want to do that.

ever thought of adding a sleeping pod to your apartment?

odd i know, and semi-pricey, but cheap as hell vs buying a new place

and don't worry, you neighbors (they're the assholes)will get old eventually hahahha

but anyway...

I moved a while back, and have been fixing the place up a bit on weekends.
So I’m not unhinged, no.

Made some dough, which was nice.

use it to fleeeeee! XD

Im failing my psych class and first year seminar class but I cant drop any because then I wouldn't be a full time student FUCK MY LIFE :fuckyou: :fuckyou: :fuckyou:

Three months on estradiol has softened up my skin and started to shuffle the fat around (a little less blocky, a little thicker); five weeks on cyproterone has nearly killed off my libido (not that I could do anything with it anyway now).

the important question though: you happy? how are you feeling?

The thing is that you don't feel emotions in a vacuum, so even while I've had a few more stresses going on in my life lately (and I've been responding to them more intensely, either due to the magnitude of the stress or changing hormones) I still think that this is a good move. It's making me feel better about at least one aspect of this, looking in the mirror and realising I'm closer to something I want.
