IT LIVESSS

potato_headI have resurrected my journal, after many long years of lack of journal. Seriously, it was like two years or something.
I've started again for a few reasons. First of all, I'm more active on LJ communities now. Secondly, I really feel like I should get back into recreational/creative writing again. It's something I used to really enjoy and I think now would be a good time to have something like that to de-stress with. Finally, I feel it's kind of important to record my progress on my journey as a transsexual, for my own sake - to have something to look back on when I'm feeling down and see how far I've come, etc.
So let's see...about me right now. I'm a freshman at Bridgewater State College, my current major is Psychology but I intend to get a business degree of some sort to go with it. I'm no longer certain I want to pursue my PhD, since I don't see myself actually going into a psychology field, but we'll see.
I'm living on-campus, rooming with two girls. One of them knows I am transgender. The other one only knows that I have a girlfriend and has convinced herself that I have a big fat lesbian crush on her and am watching her sleep. Despite that, I've found that I take much better to dorm living than I thought I would.
I recently lost my job. My manager gave me what was obviously an excuse, I think management didn't take well to her promoting several of us at once and there was no hours she could give me if she were to demote me again. So there you have it. I doubt I'll be getting another job this school year, but we'll see. Fortunately I have enough stored up that this isn't a huge problem for me right now.
These days, one of the big things at the back of my mind is names. That is to say, I'm thinking about what male name I might want. The two I'm mainly considering are Christian and Mortimer. Christian is the one everybody seems to like, but Mortimer holds some personal significance for me and I like it a bit better, I think.
It's pretty late, I suppose I should go to bed at some point...
