For the first time I took a 4 hour train ride fully dressed as Sarah (Happy)... Train was delayed and I had to pee, could not plug up the courage to go to the ladies room nor did I want to go to the mens room. It became quite uncomfortable after a while...

Well, what made me unhappy was before I went to sleep this morning I was crying for about an hour because a K-Pop idol cut his gorgeous long hair AGAIN and now it looks like ramen noodles (even though I've known about this tragedy for a long time it just hit me out of nowhere), and I was so upset because he as a whole was literally goals. So in my exhausted stupor I took it upon myself to make videos detailing how I felt about the situation, and I was so upset while I made them that I was scared to watch them again when I woke up after my girlfriend told me to.

But she convinced me to watch them again... and oh my GOD, I could've cried laughing! They were so funny, I don't even know how I could've been upset while making those. My sister posted them on her Instagram and said "my brother won't stop sending me videos of Jeonghan and i can hear him crying next door" and if I had seen it before I slept I would've been so angry, but seeing it today made me laugh so hard!

Unhappy: I have a sore throat that's been here for about a week, along with SO many voice cracks. I read somewhere that sore throats never happen when your voice changes, so I thought I was just getting sick.

Happy: I found out from an old thread on here that you CAN in fact get a sore throat when your voice drops, so that made me really excited! My voice might be dropping :)

You might be fighting the pitch change when you are talking. The brain attempts to keep the voice where it was before and that can cause soreness if it reaches the point of voice abuse. The solution to this is to relax the muscles in your neck between your larynx and your jaw. This has the additional advantage that it should lower your voice even more. Let me know if you need help with this.

Another weird thing you have to look forward too is your throat almost feeling sore without actually feeling painful or you just finding it hard to swallow. It's a hard feeling to describe but you'll know when it happens  ;)
They/them pronouns preferred.

I was going through voice-changing soreness pretty bad this past winter.  I found that drinking hot tea helps. 

Fortunatly for me, it seems that things have settled down for a bit.  My voice is currently nice and deep.  [emoji1]

Happy: I finally figured out what was wrong with my song so I was able to fix it!

Unhappy: There turned out to be WAY more wrong with my song than I thought there was, so it required a LOT of fixing.

But it's okay now!

Went to the local Goodwill to buy shorts because I only have 1 pair.  Didn't find shorts but got my first ladies jeans, and a cute top.  Even better, it was the first time I was able to fit in a 2X shirt.

Sciencing!

I'm taking it easy today.  In the morning I get to be a lab rat again.  (No, silly, I don't identify as a lab rat...)   I'll be laying down and having my head stuck in the middle of a huge fMRI machine, while a research team does some deep functional brain mapping.  Contributing to research makes me happy.

Showing up at the lab at 6:45 AM, then being injected with various bizarre chemicals while I do the same thing over and over while holding my head very, very still makes me unhappy.  Especially without my morning coffee ☕️.

Earth my body, water my blood, air my breath and fire my spirit.

Wow!!! I get totally claustrophobic whenever I've had to have an MRI  :o  All that whirling and clunky noises, I usually close my eyes and pretend I'm in a spaceship on a mission to Mars

The technician always seems to get a kick out it when I start counting down when the bed begins to move towards the tube,
10 9 8 7 .... Liftoff

Hope it goes well

Well, I think they'll measure my prolactinoma while I'm in there.  Having that little monster makes me unhappy, but knowing for certain what it it doing brings certainty and that will make me happy, or at least content.

Apparently I have misplaced my current script glasses which are a bit pricey for me to replace :-\  While turning the place upside down searching for them I came across my my old snipe glasses and a night opt.s patch that never got sewn on

Not sure how I feel about that but one of my neighbors does have a serger sewing machine, maybe I should give the patch a home?

Happy- passed all my assessments for my barbering course  :)

Unhappy- won't be able to look for a barbering job until after my top surgery; so I'm stuck working at a place I don't really like working at  :P
