We did something fun at work yesterday. Got my ears cored to a 2g and it actually didn’t hurt as much as I thought it would, like I’ve gotten my traguses pucnhed and stretched to a 10g so getting a punch isn’t new to me (my right tragus is smaller then my left so it hella migrated) but this is way bigger. Like the worst part was when the punch first starts to break the skin but it’s in the pain just kind of...it’s there but it stops like I’m pretty sure it’s got something to do with adrenaline and junk, but I’m totally stoked on them and can’t wait for them to heal.

Today is May 7th, which means it’s my 4th t-versary! This past year I’ve seen the most changes as far as my puberty 2.0 goes, I guess as well as life in general, but most importantly this has been the first year I’ve actually been able to grow facial hair that’s more then just white/blonde peach fuzz. It still grows in hella fucking blonde but it grows can colouring it isn’t that big of a deal. One thing I still have mixed feelings about is my hair falling out, like I’ve come to terms with it, I’ve accepted that it’s a thing, one the one hand it’s way less effort in the morning so that’s great but in the other hand I miss my fluffy colourful hair.

Anywho, three photos are:

-Day 1 vs now 4 years later

-Year 1, year 2, year 3, and year 4.

-And finally a comparison of my beard, a year’s worth of growth.

In my desperate need to do laundry I decided that it was apparently better to wear my super low cut shirt with only the one button from my ribs to my collarbone then it would have been to wear my ghost “I’m here for the boos” shirt...because I make great decisions while I’m a rush (Also yes I’m fully aware that I need to colour my beard...my plan is to start using henna on it and I have yet to have time to swing by a Lush...I do have tomorrow off so depending how things go at the bank I might go afterwards?)

Beard and mullet updates! Pretty much to get my beard to show up this much I coloured it black, I was worried about staining my face so it was only on for like 5-10mins but it’s still a significant improvement. My mum didn’t believe me when I told her how long it’s getting, because she’s normally only see me makeupless so it would be super blonde. Straightened the back for the first time in like over a year...actually maybe more since I would normally just blow dry it straight, also test running a free mullet at work because I’m to lazy to braid it or deal with my baby hairs when I pin it up.

Bored at work, all I want to do is head down to the post office and pick up what I’m assuming are my sweaters. He/him

Facial fuzz progress!! It’s still super blonde so I kind of still need to wear some kind of pale foundation and/or powder to make it really visible (and the right lighting). But I’m going to keep this going for a couple/few months and see what I can get...mostly because I don’t want to deal with a shaved, sensitive face in the miserable cold we’re heading into (and already have).

"I'm here for the boos" Decided to actually put makeup on, and surprisingly got referred to as "young man", at first I thought the guy (who was probably 10-15 years older then me at most I might add) was talking to my nephew who was standing next to me so I didn't register it until my sister nudged me and made a joke about how I don't talk to people. So either my face is looking more masculine (even despite the pounds of makeup and foundation) or my eyebrows are the ones masculinising my face...either way they have been granted an extension on the lease on my face.
