Hi there, I'm new to this site. I'm a 20 year old international student studying engineering in Australia and work part-time. So far, I've been living in this country for 4 years, and I really love it. Since I was little, I always feel I'm a girl. I remember the first time I cross-dress, I cut a pair of shorts i to a mini skirt, at that time I was only 7 years old. As I grow up, my desire of becoming a girl gets stronger. Recently, I got really depressed and I cried a lot by myself, I feel like I can't hide this anymore, so I told my best friend about my problem. She is going to take me to the university's counselling service to make me feel better, so I can still get started on study when the new semester begins.

I don't have many friends around me that I can share my heart with, so I hope I can make some friends here who have/had the same problem as I do.

Thank you
