The One with the Tag

I was tagged by TimeLordFangirl to do 13 things about me, so...here we go ^.^ Afterward there will be a few updates. Sorry I haven't updated in a while. This week has been ridiculously busy.

1. I have two rings that I wear every day for luck; my black one and my snake one.
2. I've never owned a pair of Vans.
3. I still have a stuffed dog I got for my first birthday. His name is Scooter.
4. I am a theatre student, and will be a musical theatre student next year.
5. I don't quite fit in with any clique at school -- emos, theatre kids, nerds...
6. I'm okay with that. Caring what people think wouldn't be very punk rock of me.
7. My guitar is named Christina. My phone is named Richard Jr., after my last phone, Richard.
8. I still don't have my driving permit.
9. My earbuds have tape on them with little music notes so I can tell them apart from my sister's earbuds.
10. I was supposed to get braces three years ago but I didn't want to, so I didn't. I give zer0 fucks about what my teeth look like.
11. The first album I ever bought myself was The Black Parade by MCR. The most recent album I bought myself is Life Starts Now by 3DG.
12. I prefer the bottom bunk.
13. Thirteen is my favorite number, and my lucky number.

Now I have to tag 15 people. This is the hard part. I'm probably not going to get to 15 tbh. You don't have to do it if you don't want to :p

There, I did ten. That should be enough. If I didn't tag you, feel free to do the challenge anyway! Thanks again to TimeLordFangirl for tagging me! Time for updates.

Updates:

•I've lost a few pounds of fat, gained a few of muscle, and my waist is noticeably smaller (to me, anyway). I'll keep at it until I am strong as I can be.

•I referred to myself as a "they" in my mind without thinking about it FOR THE FIRST TIME this morning! I just kind of froze after I realized what I'd done. It was a great feeling.

•My mom is trying and trying so hard, and I'm grateful. She corrects herself if she says "daughter" or "girl", and just yesterday she asked what I'd wear swimming if I wanted to swim. We had a short discussion and decided on a rash guard and swim trunks. Although I'd probably have to wear something under the top. Any tips on how to control the calamity that is the mammaries? (How to bind while swimming without expensive stuff?)

I think I'm gonna do a Question of the Day from now on. You can answer them in the comments if you want!

QOTD: What do you wear swimming? What would you rather wear?
