My mind has been in boy mode for like a week now. No shaving arms, no dress up, no necklaces, no nail painting or such girl things and it was like Larisa died in me. Someone accused me of being transgender and I actually got offended. Today Larisa was me again inside and I could relate again to "I like girls so much that I want to be a girl." Usually I don't feel full guy usually. Is this odd? Usually I feel partly like a girl.

Not odd at all.
If you notice most girls don't dress up all girly all the time or even most of the time.
They are just themselves.
Don't worry.
My GD feelings also come and go. Sometimes it is very strong, others almost not at all.
Just make sure you are you.

I've been in boy mode during 1.5 yrs of hormones. Not mentally, but physically. Today a friend said I look like a butch lesbian. Sometimes I feel like a guy, sometimes I feel like a girl. Normal for a lot of people. (genderqueer, genderfluid).
Sometimes I bind my breasts, sometimes I don't. Am I less trans because I feel more masculine some days? Nope.
I think the fact that I like girls more than guys (sexually) makes me more of a lesbian (genderfluid but generally female). And as a lesbian I can be as butch, fem, whatever I want.
My therapist told me to start dressing as female. In my head, the thought "what is dressing as female, many cis women dress in men's clothes, many mix men's and women's clothes". So I said I would. But in all honesty me getting all "girl'd up" isn't me. So I won't do it. If I feel like it, I will.
So if you feel like being in guy mode, don't let anyone stop you. Don't question yourself too much.
