Man, how time flies. So I've changed my name on all various important things except for my passport, which I plan to work on in the next week.
Also tried to grow my "beard," if you can even call it that, and mustache out at long as it can go. Not the best in the world, but it makes me happy, and it helps to disperse any confusion, since I'm also too lazy to get my hair cut so it's goin' long again.
It's a bit weird now, though, since estrogen has now taken over again, so I get to enjoy a certain monthly thing while still lookin' male. Also kinda sucks that so many students I subbed for still remember that I went by Ms. B last year, so they have fun tryin' to make fun of me, since apparently they think adults give a crap what kids say about them.
I've had some rather odd experiences, though. For instance, in one of my college classes, everyone else is not only an undergraduate, but also female, and they're always in there gossipin' on how they hate guys. The teacher always pokes fun at how quiet I am, since I'm the only guy in there. xd
Anyhoo, that's how things are now. No one really questions it, which is such an amazin' feelin', and my family is finally gettin' used to callin' me "he" and their son/nephew/etc. I was very lucky to have such a supportive family, since I know many don't get that luxury.
But yeah, thanks for the congratulations!

Might as well do another quick update of a weird moment I had. I was applying for FAFSA as I do every year for student loans. This year, I got a letter in the mail, sayin' that my application could not be processed because I wasn't registered for Selective Service, a thing that all males must register for when they turn 18 and before they reach the age of 26. Thing is, I was not classified as male until I was 26, so now it was in my records that I was male and never registered. If a male fails to register for Selective Service before they turn 26, they are denied all federal loans, among other things.
So yeah, that caused a bit of a hiccup. However, I was incredibly lucky. In most cases, resolving this would have resulted in a lot of exchanges of documents over the mail and various forms to fill out. When I called the agency, however, I ended up gettin' on the phone with someone who had a friend who was goin' through the exact same situation, so the person told me to email them my information, and told me to write a specific subject line in the email so they could find me quickly among all the other emails sent to this agency, and they ended up gettin' my exempt letter to me the very next day, where as it usually takes 4-6 weeks.
With my continued positive experiences with various agencies, everything was resolved painlessly and quickly. In fact, it was resolved faster than most, thanks to my situation.
The only current situation that makes me nervous is a class that I have substitute taught for on multiple occasions, includin' the year before, when I had to go as Ms. Because of this, a lot of the students have becomes curious, and keep askin' me how I went from Ms. B to Mr. B. In this situation, which has happened before, I can usually brush it off quickly, but in this class, the students keep demandin' that I explain my "secret" into how I changed from a girl to a boy. I'm terrified that they'll go to their parents and the parents will complain and it'll cause problem, but nothin' has happened so far. This is also my favorite school to sub for, and I'm doin' my field experience for my degree here, so I'd hate for any problems to arise.
Oof, that was a long post.
