I studied the first year of an Electrical and Electronic Engineering degree but it wasn't for me so I switched to Architecture instead.

Oh thats super cool to hear. I built my first basic circuit with lanps in series when ! was 4. The teacher didn't understand lol. Its always stuck with me. I think thats definitely a Cambridge thing. I really struggled at my local trans social as had nothing in common and already very shy.

Engineering must be like being trans. It was always there. I started at 6.

Im no engineer I end being the guy that makes work what the engineer asks for. I've been playing with electricity since I was 8. Now I play with as low as 12vdc to 3phase 480vac.

I wanted to be an architect, but my dad (an electronics engineer) convinced me to get into electronics. I'm glad I did. He wasn't wrong.

How did you go from electronic engineering to tank driving then Lori?

Well I'm back where I belong. It's been a while but this felt good. I've managed to get an idea down, at least enough to expand and make a basic backing track for next saturday to practice rap vocals against. I'll probably need to do a slow version and speed vocals later for the real thing!

Glad to see that Charlotte! That's some kit you've got there!

Would be better with your winning smile though!

Unfortunately I cant force my genuine smile. That only comes if I'm being silly with my bf and we bounce off each other. My energy in real life is so different to on here. When i had my music lesson Erin said she could see so much passion in my eyes and face as I explained it. If I could get that passion across online then I think people would finally see me.

May the force be with you.

Relax, take a load off your feet.


Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

You don't need to, Charlotte. It's obvious. You are the same when you show pics of Serana, and the furry art you do. That aspect of your life. There are things that just... they are islands in an ocean for you. I get it. More than you probably know. The light is blindingly bright because the dark is crushingly dark. When you are in that zone, you are brighter than the sun. That's kind of how it is sometimes.

I'm getting such a strong urge to get married these days and hyper excitement at the idea of my wedding dress. The idea of getting married never excited me in boy mode yet now its immense. I think after I've paid my surgery I'm going to marry my fiancé and find the cutest wedding dress. I can't yet imagine how good I will feel for that day. I think I want a floral dress.

Wow! That's big news Charlotte! Does your partner know about this? ha ha!

Why not consider getting engaged now? I would like to see an engagement ring on your finger!

I know what you mean about the wedding thing. I hate wedding receptions but I do like the ceremony. I would love to be a bride one day. It's probably all about the dress though!

I have a very long way to go before I could get there but I would love it to happen for you.

Elegant and unique, Charlotte! And so beautiful! Congratulations! (I know, September was a minute ago but I'm seeing the ring for the first time)

Oooooh, you're a dark horse, I didn't have a clue! He knows you well judging by the amount of colour on that ring!

Floral dress as in not white?
