  This one is going to be embarrassing.  I'm not only waitressing, but I'm doing it at Mom's, which means I'm at Mia's favorite place and I guarantee she'll come in a lot when I'm working and she will always sit in my section.  Very few places make their waitresses wear uniforms anymore and I know it could be worse.  One of you suggested I get a job at Hooters, but it still means wearing a short dress everyday and the girls aren't letting me wear the most comfortable shoes either. This means I can stay down at school for summer because I can support myself, but this is just so embarrassing.  I've never been a server before and I'm still learning how to do the job.

  So, we did Rocky Horror and I was Dr. Frank N Furter.  I definitely didn't look like I do as Kayla thanks to dark makeup and a wig, but it was a little weird because I was out in women's clothing, but I was out as Kevin not as Kayla. I had to remind myself that if anybody I knew saw me, I was Kevin.  Mia actually borrowed one of my maid outfits for her costume. I guess things have come full circle. She made me get the maid outfit to clean her room and here she was having to borrow it herself even if there was no way in Hell she was cleaning anything herself.  I have a job now and it's the one I wanted the least. Today was training and I'll start for real tomorrow.  The thing that sucks is that I've been hired as Kayla rather than Kevin.  I'm working under the table and I'm pretty sure they wouldn't care anyway. I really wanted a desk job, but I am now waitressing at Mia's favorite restaurant--Mom's. The uniforms are horrible and I am pretty sur

  I stopped on the way home yesterday to get my hair and nails done.  Mia demanded I do it after Christmas break and decided I should do it again after spring break. The pink nails are really not useful for me because they are about to be disassembled before class tomorrow.  The hair however will stay.  It's starting to get more body and the girls were thrilled with how well it turned out. I have to admit that I am starting to look more and more like a girl.  Even I can see it.  I had a few interviews today as the job search continues. I hope to hear back by tomorrow.  Wish me luck.

I tried on some spring outfits as Mia had told me to do over break.  Having two sisters who are on the fashionable side, I have plenty of outfits to pick from and even better--it's not that hard to access their out of season clothes and it's still cold for spring clothing.  I got several outfits, just like I did at Christmas and began posing in them just when my 18-year-old sister Holly arrives by surprise.  I'm wearing a pink dress and have my phone on a stand for pictures.  I quickly, grabbed the phone and ran to hide because she was coming downstairs.  As you can see, we have hard wood floors and I'm wearing heels. I ran into the bathroom and quickly locked the door. I don't know if Holly heard the heels, but she did see the folded up dresses on the couch and of course my other sister is away at college still. She called into me through the bathroom door and I told her that I don't know where the dresses came from. She wants to talk to me, but I faked a stoma

  If you can't read my shirt, it says Kiss Me, I'm Irish. I wore it around with a black miniskirt and yes I did get kissed several times much to the delight of several of the girls who were with me. I'm home now, but I did drop off a bunch of resumes before I left and I actually got a few calls. They said I could interview when I got back from break.  It's tough being back here even though I don't have to do as much as I had to over Christmas, I still have a sister to avoid. I've definitely come to the realization that it takes me more work to look like a guy than a woman without makeup.  I'm actually starting to have to put more work into having people think I'm a man than think I'm a woman.

  I'm not heartbroken, but it would have been nice.  They told me I'd know by Monday, but I didn't find out until today. I'm wondering if the person they picked found out yesterday.  I haven't told Mia yet, but Becs didn't seem too upset and told me that I'd find something. That was appreciated. I kind of feel like this is a bad job to look for a job because all the good ones have already been filled.  We're not going to be here much longer before summer so people probably aren't looking at students as employee solutions.

  I meant to publish this yesterday and forgot to hit publish after writing it.  I had a job interview at the library yesterday and it went okay.  Believe it or not, I've never had a job interview before.  It's not like i haven't had a job, I just never had to interview as my parents' friends were willing to hire me and they already knew me better than they would from an interview.   I don't mind getting a job, but having a job as a woman has all sorts of other issues. For one, if the purpose is to get me money to pay for clothes, having to get more work-suitable clothes will be an issue.  This outfit was loaned to me by Ashleigh, but I generally have no sensible shoes or professional looking outfits. I have very few pairs of women's pants. Social security is going to be a big hang up.  At the college, they're very open to non-binary and transgender students, but a private employer might have a bigger problem with discovering Kayla isn't actually a woman

  So, the girls decided that today should be roommate makeover day today.  It's already pretty embarrassing that we have to do things like paint each other's toes, but I think I did pretty good on Fiona's makeup.  I don't think she's ever looked this good, which I take some pride in.  I think the bangs in her wig help and I think she kind of looks like Ellie Kemper. She's been working very hard and spent Saturday trying to learn to do her own makeup and walk in heels.  Saturday, Mia and I went out for dinner and massages.  It still freaks me out the way she can be so sweet and funny and just a good friend.  Then the next moment, she's making me do something really humiliating for her amusement the next moment. Yesterday was one of the best days since all of this started. I wish I had known about the free massages earlier. Friday, I went out with Ashleigh and Allison. That wasn't horrible, but naturally we wound up at a club and that meant dancing with gu
