hi

I've been holding on to this for a few days now.  This is the first time my mom's fam acknowledged I was gay.  


we were on the topic of marriage and that i was next on the list out of my moms' friends kids to get married

and my aunt said you have to have a boy to do that

and i said i can get married in iowa

and then they said

it's not acknowledged here and we aren't acknowledging it either

my aunt said all the above

but my mom didn't say anything

A much needed update

I don't know if anyone reads this b/c i haven't gotten anyone asking where I've been.  But I'm going to tell you what i've been up to anyway.  Lets see:

I switched classes.  Switched from a photography class to a math class.

Trying to balance a social life with my school life is turning out to be quite difficult.

I guess the true reason I haven't written is b/c This blog was for my coming out story.  And I have came out and am okay with it now.  I no longer think 'I wonder how many other gay people are here'.  Now it's more of 'I wonder who else didn't do their homework'.  When I first started coming out people told other people by just mentioning certain things. I didn't know how i was ever going to do that.  Now I do, if something comes up and reminds me of ami, or if i get a text from people who I am talking to while I'm around someone who doesn't know, I'll mention it.  Everyone I've told actually is okay with it.

So leaving things on a good note, I think this is a good-bye for now.  I'll try and check in once a month or so.  But I may start a new blog and next month I'll link it.

Thanks for listening and when I tell my coming story I'll link people to this blog.
