Silly me, forgot why we don't really trust mental health workers,and confessed a lot of stuff to our schools mental health specialist.
Only helpful things that came out of it were:
-Paperwork
-New anxiety calming technique?

The paperwork is a therapy thing. Apparently the school offers 5-6 sessions of free therapy for students, which you have to be eligible for, but still. She did this mostly in an attempt to make us get diagnosed with things.

However, she wasn't very pleasant talking about these things, especially OSDD. She also called our self-diagnosis of autism "inappropriate". After we explained why we've done that.
-autism in the family
-years of research
-we have a LOTTTTT of the symptoms and they SHOW
-we've done the RAADS-R(?) test like 3 times and every time its been just 20-30 points away from the highest possible scoring. I know the RAADS-R test isn't the most insanely credible diagnosis type thing, but we feel that its a good step in getting the whole "okay I do/don't need to care about this" sense around autism, y'know?

We explained/debunked a lot of the common misconceptions around OSDD/DID and she still persisted with them. She also asked what we've gotten our information and research from, which is fine, but when we tried explaining that they're from credible sources and NOT Google, she told me all about how "there's a difference between research from Google and research from real scientific texts".

Oh well. Sorry for the rant, its midterms time and Im just having a not so fun day I guess.

So, today we're doing our 2nd and 3rd period finals. Starting the 3rd period one soon, just did 2nd period. Got an 80! Not bad.

Had to go to the nurse after the first one though. We woke up with a sore throat, but it's gotten worse. We have chills, a headache, motion sickness, and I can't move my head without it throbbing and my vision getting blurry. The nurse gave me some salt water to gargle and a mint. She said once I get home I should go to the doctor to get checked for step throat. (It's a half day today.) Only problem is, can't do that. max's mom is extremely busy at work all day and wont be home until around 4:30. And we're home alone until then. And we can't drive (nor do we have the money to see a doctor)
So we're kind of fucked.
Oh well. I get out of here at about 11:25. It's about 9:40 over here. I'll get through it.

Hi, Zeta here!!! SO...

We got our 504 meeting stuff sorted out yesterday. Only thing that changed was that we're allowed to wear headphones (for noise cancelling) while we work, as long as the teacher isn't, you know, teaching. Other than that honestly our 504 is useless. It's mostly just stuff they do anyway, except we also get extra time on assignments and tests. We never got a say in what accommodations we got last year, which we think is extremely unfair (cause it is. They're OUR accommodations, why shouldn't WE get to have a say in what they are??)

Also, urgrgrhrhh.... Grades... We have like a 54 in English right now because we keep forgetting to turn shit in. Hopefully that'll change because we're finishing up our major grade project today.
The project is an informational thing, the prompt being "the history of ____". We did the history of gay cowboys, and we titled it "The Queer History of the Wild, Wild West"
It's a very interesting topic!! She was worried we wouldn't be able to do everything required in the rubric, but we've figured it out. :)

I think that's it for now. Yay!

School KILLS artists. We haven't drawn very much since it started and anything we have drawn, we've hated. But I've been on a bit of a drawing kick recently!!!!
Figured out a new art style like yesterday. It's so silly and fun and I love it!!!! Maybe I'll post a couple drawings on here :)
I've mostly been drawing myself and my siblings though. But it'll be nice to know kinda what we look like, right?

I'm not doing great. But that's not really what I wanna talk about right now.

Working on our stop-motion project for our animation class at the moment. We're going to have to hand-make THREE semi-complicated sets, as well as a (probably clay or something) character model. The sets are different sections of an abandoned hospital; a hallway, and two different rooms. I don't know how we're going to make all of the little extra things like bottles and syringes and old beds and everyything. But we'll figure it out. We also have to buy all this shit. Right before christmas. Isn't that just great? Unfortunately going to have to ask Max's mother to take us to Hobby Lobby or something for our supplies.
I really don't know how we're going to do this. We're kinda in over our heads but it was our idea, mostly mine, and this group isn't really helping or contributing at all aside from when we share our ideas and they said something like "yeah. I like that. That's a good idea."
Oh well. We'll figure it out. We'll get it done, because we kind of have to. This just isn't going to turn out exactly how we'd like it to.

Current Mood: lethargic

So, Monday was ehhh. Good but bad. Luis and I got into a fight, we've been on bad terms since he got here. He's just been too touchy and uncomfortable. He wouldn't fuck off, and as a reflex, I hit him. Not that hard, just.. Hard enough for him to hit back. Dottore had to break it up. A little later, Ashley formed. Then around like 1:30 Luis was being petty while I was having an anxiety attack, I almost hit him again. But ashley stopped me and told Luis to just fuck off.

Yesterday we got a little break from school (election day and such, our school is used as a polling location) and I had a pretty good day. Did some laundry, washed our chest binder; it lost a little bit of its stretch though so it's been a teensy bit tight. I think we need a new one; ours is GC2B and we got it in like, mid 2022 I think. Maybe april/may? Apparently around early 2022 people were starting to say that GC2B binders aren't safe anymore. People have been getting real bad muscle/back pain, stiff shoulders, ribs breaking and warping. I don't think it's safe for us to keep wearing this; we just can't get a new one. Our old friend got it for us because we didn't (and still don't) have the money for one, and even then our parents would've been pissed off at us if they knew we bought one.
Anyway sorry about the binder rant; I was really productive yesterday though. Showered, skincare, all of it. Almost went for a little walk around the retention ponds in our neighborhood, but I was home alone and our mom wouldn't have let me go out alone, since the body is a minor and AFAB. Talked with Ada (girlfriend, sourcemate, partner sys) and Alistair (my son, singlet) on the phone for a while last night, that was nice. Ada fell asleep on the phone but me and Alistair kept talking; surprised we didn't wake her up.
At some point she suddenly said "I'm going to bed." and sounded wide awake, and I was confused and called for her a couple times. She said "huh?" then stopped answering. So I think she was sleep talking? This morning we told her and she said she doesn't remember waking up. But, after that, me and Alistair went and private called, stayed up until almost 1:00. But then he fell asleep, then I also fell asleep, we stayed on call though. It was nice. I love my son so much.

I think that's it. Sorry for the whole rant.

So. Random shit again, but heres our plans for the future. (not set in stone but still)

Keep studying anthropology. Get a part-time/weekend/after-school job. Graduate from highschool, hopefully with a good GPA. Go to the university downtown, about 45 mins away. Get a degree in anthropology. Become a museum curator (or something else but museum curator is the current plan).

Somewhere in that plan we're probably going to move in with our partner system. Also this plan is flexible because our partner system may be going to a college in another state, as that's what they've looked into so far. Which means either we'll go with them and study at either a different college, or maybe somehow the same one, or we'll do long distance and keep our current plan.

Also we'll probably get an associates or bachelors degree. Bachelors at most, unless we want to stick it out longer and get a masters degree, but I doubt that. We're already so done with school shit.

Current Mood: hungry

Just took our tests. Urghgfdbv. Okay honestly, they were really easy. The only thing was I started getting impatient on the math parts, and the wording was very strange for a lot of the questions. I swear reading it I registered some questions as like.. "If you put the 3x and 7y and the y-833x=600 of the y of the x-intercept what does x represent?"

Just very unclear wording. And so many numbers that I just caved and gave up and guessed. Somehow kept myself together during this test; surviving off of 14 wontons, off-brand Coke, and half a bottle of water.

We started our period yesterday and when we're on our period we get emotional. It seems to affect me the worst, especially when I'm unmedicated, which I kind of am today? With my medication, I take 2 pills every morning, 7:00 AM. I only took one. I don't know why; I just did. Our bus was late this morning too, and the substitute bus driver wasn't the best driver, and I got car-sick (or, bus-sick?)

Also, guess who's in our testing room! You guys have never heard about this before but I'll explain now.
This kid I'm going to call "9" for privacy purposes. Basically, over the summer our friend at the time who goes to a different school gave his friend (9) our phone number- without our permission, might i add- and 9 texted us. Long story short, this kid kind of creeps us out. They've sent us furry BDSM Tumblr memes/drawings without any warning or even asking if that's okay. They tried to debate with us on how inflation and vore are "better" than BDSM; both in a sexual context and in the sense that they're more normal and safe.
To be fair, we don't agree. I don't say that in reference to me nor my headmates' sex lives, but in the sense that these fetishes are more normal and safe. I'm not kinkshaming, if thats what you're into then so be it. Not my business. But hey, they aren't more normal- they don't actually exist and can't exist if you take actual logic into account. And they aren't exactly more safe either? Especially vore? But that doesn't matter. Back on topic.
9 also kinkshamed people who are interested in BDSM. And I will say, I am one of those people. And I think BDSM is a very okay thing as long as everything is consensual and agreed upon. Even then, why is it 9's business what people do/like? Why is it anyones business?
To sum up this dragged-on story; they made us so uncomfortable that we ghosted them, and then ended up blocking them because they wouldn't stop sending us weird things.
I don't know if they remember what we look like though, so maybe it'll be okay. Plus we have a different haircut, hair color, and we're wearing our bluelight glasses today which make our face look a bit different. I really hope they don't recognize us and even if they do I hope they don't acknowledge our existence.

So yeah. Sorry for ranting, but there's my morning so far. Also this is our page so if you don't like what we post fuck off /hj

Co-Fronting with Marshall Lee right now. Going to just let him write this

Marshall: Today sucksssss. Major bummer. Our partner system is gone ALL DAY doing flyrail shit cus today's the previews for the school play. We wanna be supportive n shi and we're being as supportive as possible but GODDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD we miss em. Esp cause my boyfriend, Gary, is over there n he's fronting today n I miss him. They don't even get to have their phone ALL DAY. And afterward he has rehearsal like usual until 7:00, so he might not have his phone until 7:00 but I'm not sure. Point is, this sucks ass. We don't actually have anyone else to talk to, either. Our only other friends go to a diff school w a diff schedule so we don't get to talk to them till the get out of school, which is at like.. 4:00. We get out at 2:35.
Oh well. I'll survive (barely). I really wanna see him soon though.

So, homecoming was on Saturday. I attended with my fiance and sourcemate, Betty, who's in our partner system. It was alright. I mean, half amazing, half... Meh. Betty dragged me through a crowd and almost did that again a couple other times but it's okay. Just overstimulating. But for most of the time, we just stood by the pillars because there were hardly any people over there, and kissed. That kind of sounds like we made out in public. We didn't. We just kissed a lot. It was nice though. It felt nice to be affectionate with her after such a long time. If you know what happened in my source, you get why I say that. If you don't.. I don't know. I don't want to explain it on here.

Oh well. Long story short, I had fun. More importantly, Betty did too.

Today's carnival during lunches at our school. During our lunch (C Lunch) we're going to help out the GSA booth with selling pride bracelets and stickers, since we're apart of the club but didn't get to sign up for working through all three lunch periods. My wife is going to be stopping by and buying a bracelet from us! Thank you Baizhu. <3

Anyway, Tighnari decided yesterday that it's time we get our shit together. She's planned and scheduled her school things for the littles, as well as all future meetings (going into beginning of january) with me and other parents to discuss curriculum.

She also mapped out our new government system. We're going to have a group of people; Childe, Capitano, Morax/Zhongli, Kusanali, Venti, and me. But the thing is, I can only work if I'm medicated. Like.. If I show up unmedicated and not in a decent mental state, I'm out.

This'll be a good opportunity for a lot of us.

Current Mood: exhausted

So, Mirak mentioned the whole school thing idea we have for the headspace. For anyone who may not see that post here's a recap; in our system, we have a lot of littles. Almost all of them are Dottore's kids. She homeschools them, but she won't be able to continue that for a while due to some new things going on in her life. So, we've had the idea to start up a school, right across the yard from the house!

I've volunteered to be their teacher; initially I was anxious about that because, surprise! I have a baby! I won't be talking about her much because me and Cyno don't want to be those kinds of parents. But, anyway, yeah. She can be left with Cyno for a few hours every day but initially I was really anxious about leaving her, and didn't want to leave her for just about another month. But my buddy in our partner system talked me through my anxiety about it, and i'm starting sooner than that.

I think this'll be good for me. I feel like I've been cooped up inside forever. i like to work, and teach, and have things to do, so I think it'll be a great opportunity. And since they're neurodivergent, and I'm neurodivergent, I think i'll be able to properly accommodate to their needs. Plus I plan on having meetings with the parents (Every two weeks maybe?) to go over the cirriculum and lesson plans. I think that'll work out well.

I'm very excited!

In biology (im literally writing this at the end of bio) I had to watch some video about what we're going over next week. I took two pages of notes just because I felt like it. Also, because biology is kinda hard and I don't wanna flunk the next test. We were exempt from the first test, the second one (took yesterday) we barely passed. We got a 77%. Not that bad; especially considering that one of the littles managed to slip through into front and take the test. So, good job, buddy! We're impressed!

But yay! I took notes! Our teacher even walked past and said "you're already taking notes? Dang girl!" Did he misgender us? Yes, but it's academic praise so I'll take it anyway.
