Not with that attitude. You have to be positive. You are perfectly capable of accomplishing your goals. If it doesn't turn out the way you expect, it should never be because you didn't believe in yourself.
I wish you the best and the happiest year of your life.
Try to get my financial house in order.
Finish laser
Get recommendations for SRS
Possibly get an Orchie.

I kick a bunch of bad habits, and pick up a bunch of good ones.
Ok for real...
1) Go to the gym regularly, again. At least I already got a jump start a little over a week ago, and I'm still at it!
2) Stop eating junk, again.
3) Come out to my dad and my guy friends.
4) Start HRT.
5) Try to double up my hours per month of electrolysis so my face isn't so disgusting for a whole extra year.
And the one that's going to feel the best of all:
6) Bury my boy-mode persona for good.
Tonight I went to a friend's new years party, and I let the real me come out, not physically but socially. It was great! I've never felt like I could actually talk to other people and relate in any kind of normal way, but tonight I wasn't the quiet one in the corner for a change. It's going to take a lot of work to fully come out of my shell. But every time I do peek out from behind that shell, I end up feeling more and more like a real person.
Start Laser beard remove ( is this the best way)
Go out as Cindy more
Take care of people more
Respect and Love those I dislike
Laugh
----I explore who I really am. ???
----I find a support group. :D
----I introduce Mia to the world (Hi!) :icon_wave:
Happy New Year everyone!
I ask her to marry me :laugh: ;) ;)

Me too. Don't sell yourself short. You can accomplish anything.

I get healthier; need to get more exercise, drink more water and lose a little weight.
I spend less unproductive time online, and spend more time writing my book, blog, and playing/composing more music.
I continue on the journey of being more outwardly myself, whatever gender that might (or might not) be.
Z
I find a new job I like.
I continue to stand by my SO in his fight with cancer.
Karen
I will:
- finish classes,
- start hrt+electro/laser,
- make progress on research,
- figure out plans for going full time,
- get my finances together -- stop blowing $25 for no good reason on bar food (which will be esaier after #1 is done),
- get that tick of the north face of, you know, that one, in all the postcards, and the other one on all those other post cards ... yeah, that one ... and also, that sweet line I saw last June,
- and not be stupid and die while I pursue the previous goal.
2008 was great -- I'm expecting 2009 to be better. :)

Well, I post on this forum for the first time ;) Hi everyone! I'll go find an introductions thread in a mo, if you have one...?
And tomorrow, I'm coming out to my dad. In the manliest of places, a pub. Ironic :)
I don't plan ahead too much, but I hope to set the whole thing in motion this year and be myself :)
Hon
That sounds awesome. Good luck and let us know how it went
Love

Taking applications for that Novus Ordo Seclorum of yours, Mina dear? :P

Start HRT
Transfer Colleges
Tell my family
Be rid of my male disguise, and be me all the time.

There's one thing you can do now though, which is to change that silly boy sign you have on your profile. Embrace the truth! ;D
Selene, if that picture is you and you haven't started HRT, i am super jealous, i doubt i'd ever look anywhere near as good even with HRT.
Done! soldierjane I wasn't sure if it was appropriate since I am not technically female yet since I haven't had SRS
I must admit the male/female signs on profiles, I have been wondering whether they are for sex or gender...
oh wow Selene, I saw you before with the male marker, I assumed you were a female to male who hadn't started trying to look more masculine yet. You're gorgeous hun ;D

Yeah I thought that was your intent, but don't worry: there's a lot of us preops here and we're not less who we are for that pesky fact ;)
Welcome to the forum by the way, and congratulations on finding yourself :)
Really!? I'm flattered...I dunno I always think my nose, and chin are a dead give away. Thanks soldierjane I'm enjoying the forum and its info.
Really, you look pretty much perfect to me, i know for a fact that i will probably need to have a rhinoplasty if i transition, my nose is just to big and ugly to be feminine, even then it probably wouldn't help, and i just have too many things i dislike about myself to care to list. :'(

We
all feel that way hon, even those we deem "perfect" have hangups about their appearance
Selene,
Personally I think you, Gracie, and Starbuck are all spies for the Bios. You 'girls' can't be TS. All of you are simple just too pretty to be any thing but GG. And I mean that is the nicest way. 8)

Don't worry about your nose. I was extremely surprised to see the mentioning of the boy disguise in your post. Your pic made me think you were already post-op.
My nose is so big, that I can apply just about all of the 101 Big D__k jokes from Drew Carrey's book
Dirty Jokes and Beer and they're still funny (and nearly true).
Hey everyone. I'm later than I intended to be because I made the mistake of trying to circumvent Shade's nose while driving to my computer.
2009 will be the year I excel.
Sorry about that Rebis. I'll tuck the thing.
It's okay. I got to see some country side that I haven't seen in a while.
Well thank you all...I guess I just need to convince myself that I'm attractive as a girl. I've always been told by girls that I was cute, and had a lot of openly gay guys hit on me but that was as a boy. Thats was what I always got ridiculed for the most in high school was how me the "Weird Kid" was always getting asked out and was friends with all the girls.
Why can't I be weird like you instead of weird the way I am?
I want to finish my second book and get one of them published, I want this to be the year I do something.

It might help to remember that what's attractive in men's and women's faces is often the same.
Quote from: Alyssa M. on January 02, 2009, 11:17:44 AMIt might help to remember that what's attractive in men's and women's faces is often the same.
Yeah. Attractiveness carries a certain level of androgyny along with it.
Mina.
I will...
1. Get my finances in order.
2. Start an actual career instead of having just another job.
3. Relocate somewhere where I have more opportunities.
4. Feel more comfortable with and accept my body the way it is, now that I've done all I can in my physical transition (although I might start laser if I can afford it somehow).
5. Hopefully find a partner (who is also ok with me the way I am), I know she's out there...
6. Get out and enjoy nature more.
7. Be more sociable.
8. Continue working with my therapist on #4, #5, and #7.
Have my name changed next month
Start RLE
Come out at work finally
Start looking seriouly at the SRS surgeons
And just plain be myself :)
Happy New Year to you all and hope all your wishes come true. ((((HUGS))))

Your chin is more feminine than mine, and I am completely female in the biological sense. You look a lot like my best friend (note: girl), especially the hair.

OK, update: so, I basically was a little tipsy, but I told him that I needed to tell him something, but not in the way I was. And I told him not to worry too mucha bout it, but I'd say later. Eep?
I remember one of the the australian Les Girls, girls going for her op, and the nurses asking her. " Why do want an operation to be a boy?"
Selene I would love to hear that first therapists report. " Know dear why do you want to transition to a boy? Testosterone will have all sorts of effects on you,you know"
DUHH
Love it

I made my last year's resolution. I had GRS. This year I resolve never to make an income off other people's misery and waste people's time by putting garbage on television and calling it "entertainment". ;)
Start T
Start studying for my degree in history
Get a flat in London and move out of these crappy rooms I'm living in!
Take up running
Lose weight
Congratulations on the GRS and I don't watch TV to hard on the stomach with all that garbage.
My new years resolution is to bug people more.
Cindy
