It has been a while since I last posted anything. I have been busy. FFS and AM with Dr. Suporn in Thailand for three weeks then I moved directly to Shenzhen, China. So I had my hands full. The good news is, is that you can get this website and post almost anything from here. That doesn't sound like a bid deal, but you got to remember that you can't get facebook and Google is blocked. Thankfully I live close to Hong Kong so we still get google through Google/HK. I can use proxy servers to do a few things on facebook but I can do almost anything here that I used to do in the states, so far.
I was real scared about coming to China and starting my full time TS lifestyle in communist country that didn't allow gay folks be themselves intill 1979. I almost backed out at the last minute but I pulled it together in Thailand and moved. I was loving Thailand so much that I wanted to live there. The people are so friendly and very open minded about our kind. If you are decent looking and can speak thai you can make friends real fast. I didn't speak the language, but still made a few friends. I couldn't stay there cause there really wasn't any employment options even for a person with an Architectural license. I could have tought English for about 20k a year American, but that sucks even though 20k goes a long way there. But I have kids to support and alimony to pay so I had to stick to my guns and go for the Job that offered me that chance to A) make money, B) Be a woman full time and C) continue a career that I love and didn't want to throw in the toilet cause I want to have boobies.
My boss is wonderful and my fellow employees have accepted me very well. We had a full office outing last the weekend before last. It was an overnight trip to Zhou Hi, a resort area on the other side of the bay from Shenzhen. My bossed paid for everything and I got to know my fellow employees better. It is tough with the language barrier, but if I talk slowly enough we can communicate. Work is going well, and I love the job so far. China is building like crazy here, I mean crazy. Every square meter of this town is under construction so how or another. So this could be good for my career.
I am making friends and I don't even go to Gay bars. I haven't found them yet. Chinese woman have accepted me for the most part. I haven't figured out the guys yet. There are plenty of Europeans in my end of town and I hang out with some of them on a regular basis. And I am the only TS I have seen since leaving Thailand. I think there here just undercover. I haven't been to the gay bars since they are on the other side of town, and it
is an hour by metro can bus to get there. I am happy with my straight friends so far. I have only had one bad interaction with a Neanderthal from Germany. I think he was a hold out of the Hitler youth that got cloned or something. He ripped of my wig while I was dancing with my friends and gave me a "I am going to Kill you" look. I was about to go at it with him when my friends pulled me back and his friend pulled him back. Luckily everyone in the bar loves me and not him so they kicked his ass out. I know the owners now so I have pull. The Chinese girls love to dance with me. I have found a new pass time. Dancing. I love to dance now. I guess years of studying American woman dance has payed off here. As soon as I step on the dance floor several Chinese woman make it obvioius that they want to dance with me for some reason or another. I don't know if it is because I am some kind of freak, a really good dance, the only American TS they have every seen or a combination of all those but it works and I am gaining friends like I never imagined.
I think it really comes down to one thing, "I AM HAPPY." Yes I am happy with myself. I look at the mirror in the morning and night and I see me for the first time in 39 years. When your happy people want to be with you. It is that simple. I was a good looking man but I never had that many friends. I was always a debbie downer and no one wants to be around that, now people do. And I don't even speak their language. I am working on that though. Dancing is a universal language, and if you can speak it you can make friends.
Well that is it from me from China. I have a million stories I could tell but only so much time in the day to type.
Take Care everyone, and thanks for all the warm wishes when I was just about to go to Thailand and during my surgery.
