This is Definitely Tougher Than Being at School

Image
  This dress is actually mine.  The other one is my older sister's.  I've been staying out of my sisters' closets for the most part. It's so tough to keep the dressing hidden at home and I swear school is much easier.  I'm hoping that I've been good enough lately to keep Mia off my back, but who knows.  I'm not scared of her.  Yeah, she might tie me up, but I'm used to it. I just want to get her off my back.  Even though I didn't go out to a fancy party, I needed to get a fancy dress for New Years, this one was much cheaper than I thought it would be. Even besides the pictures, I'm constantly having to work on my voice, movement, and makeup skills when I'm home.  Let's face it, these girls are pretty tough in terms of what they accept.  I'm meeting a friend I haven't seen since summer tomorrow night just to hang out.  I'm curious to see if he notices all the little changes.

I'm In So Much Trouble

Image
 I had a bit of a crisis with my computer.  The power supply went out and of course, it picked Christmas day to do it. I am pretty sure that the girls aren't going to forgive and forget. I've been getting more and more adamant texts from Mia. I am going to go out tomorrow because I think I have a window I can get it done. I'm wearing another of my mom's dresses this time and I think it's the longest dress I've ever worn.  It does have a slit in the back.  I'm so nervous about these boudoir pictures that they want me to get. It's like "Hi, I'm a dude. I want to be photographed on a bed in lingerie looking all sexy kittenish."  This break is nice and it's been terrific spending time with my family, but I do miss the college parties. 

Halloween Slide Show

Image
Hey everybody, I am pretty sure that Kayla wouldn't want to share the amazing slideshow that our friend Paige made of Halloween pictures, so I'm taking the liberty of putting it on her blog myself.  Paige also made a rather Dashing Pugsly. If you couldn't tell, and I hope you couldn't, I'm Lurch. Becs

Walking Across Campus

Image
Beginning Friday, the girls have had me all over campus trying to prove to me that I can convince people that I'm a girl.  I'm not too sure about that, but I do think it's a lot easier to fool people when I'm not talking or interacting with them.  I went to the student union, the library, walked across campus and pretended to be going to class. Then tonight we went to a small party. It was dark and people were drunk, but it was very frightening.  People left me alone and the girls wouldn't have let anybody do anything, but I still am not used to being in public in a skirt and I'm worried people will say something and I always assume that they can tell.

The Eyebrow Thing

Image
  If you have been following Bec's blog, you know that they went to work on my eyebrows. Yeah, I fought them but they tied me to a chair. To their credit, as I was sitting in the chair I thought they were going to do me way worse then they did. It does look different. When my roommate saw me afterwards, he immediately knew that something was different, but he couldn't say what. They're not pencil thin arches as you can see, but they are definitely less masculine.  Do you think they make as big a difference as I do?

Kayla's Shopping Adventure

  For some reason, Kayla seemed shy about talking about her shopping adventures. I'm sure I can convince her to post all about them next week. In the meantime, here's a video by Paige of Kayla's big weekend. I hope this didn't confuse you too much.  After we began turning Kevin into Kayla, I was made an administrator on his blog.  I can easily see which of us made posts, but I didn't realize you couldn't.  Obviously, this post is by me -- Becs

I Dodged a Bullet

Image
  This was a tough weekend.  We went shopping the whole time and I'm currently watching the Bears get their butt kicked by the Packers while I wear my brand new cheerleading outfit, but I totally dodged a bullet.  Mia made a "bet" with me that if her Raiders beat the Cardinals, I would have to be her maid for a week.  I put "bet" in quotes because usually a bet gives both sides something if they win.  Anyway, the Cardinals had an amazing comeback and tied the game up on the last play of the game and then won it in overtime with a defensive touchdown when the Raiders were threatening to score. I got my reprieve and Mia was pissed. As I said, it was a weekend of shopping.  I wasn't happy about it.  We bought me a lot of new things and it was pretty embarrassing.  I was allowed to go in my boy clothes, but that meant trying stuff on without makeup on looking like an obvious guy.  I got a manicure complete with polish and spent about $118 of my o...

Sorry I've been Absent

Image
  I've been warned by bother Becs and Mia that I need to keep updating this blog, but I really don't have that much to say.  Wearing panties underneath my guy clothes and bras when I'm not in class means that I'm very aware of the women's underwear I'm wearing. It also makes it really hard to focus on tonight's football game.  It's really going to be difficult for me to continue this blog when there currently is a huge elephant in the room. So far my classes are going pretty well except that I was right about Professor Simon.  She's just impossible to please.

Date Night

Image
  I missed blogging yesterday.  I feel pretty bad about it because I know that when I start missing it can be a habit.  It's no different in blogging than in basketball. Anyway, I talked more with Ashleigh and we agreed to hangout at her place tonight. I'm nervous just because I'm totally new to college dating. I'm actually kind of new to dating period. In high school, we'd all just kind of hang out. Anyway, she seems really easy to talk to and I think we'll have a good time if I just calm myself down a bit.  Even Dave is impressed that I'm going out with a sophomore.

Finally Good News on the Girl Front

Image
  I zoomed with a girl today.  She read my information in the student directory. It was kind of strange, but we had a great call and we agreed to hang out this weekend. I know this isn't a great picture, but nobody ever looks good on Zoom.  We wound up talking about an hour and despite Dave thinking I was weird for talking to a girl on the computer who was on the same campus I was, it kind of worked for us. I think it'll make meeting her face to face a lot more laid back. Her name is Ashleigh and she's actually a sophomore who lives off campus, but she's only 18 so it's cool.

Saturday at College

Image
That's Paige, one of the girls who is determined to do my hair.  She's insane just like the others are, but she knows football and I had hoped to watch the Nebraska-Northwestern game with her today.  Unfortunately, those girls have a one track mind so I had to avoid her and watched with Dave in our room instead. He thinks that those girls are going to cause me all sorts of problems if I don't give them what I want, but there's just no way that's happening. One problem with drinking heavily during the week is it was hard to find too much to do tonight.  I'm actually thinking I'll be in bed tonight before midnight.  

Crazy Girls

Image
  One thing about having long hair is that girls are always wanting to play with it.  It can be really cool if they just want to run their fingers through it, but a lot of girls for some reason want to curl it and try to give me a girl's hairstyle. Every Halloween, I'd always have a bunch of girls trying to convince me to go as a girl for college just so they can do my hair.   Unfortunately, girls don't outgrow this by high school it seems. Last night, Rebecca and a several of her friends wanted to do my hair and I wouldn't let them no matter how much I drank or how much they begged. I just don't want to do that kind of stuff. I'm a guy dammit.  Anyway, they talked me into a bet and I agreed just to shut them up.  It doesn't matter what the bet is, but they cheated so I refused.  In fact, I ran to my room and locked them out because these girls were determined.  Fun is fun, but they try and get all scary like if I don't pay up, they'll do more tha...

My Nemesis

Image
  This is Professor Sheila. I won't give her last name because I don't want her finding this blog, but I think she's my newest nemesis.  I've recently heard her referred to as a ball buster and heard a student tell me that her class is where GPAs go to die. She's actually a DuPont alum and a former Kappa, but wow is she tough. I made the mistake of thinking England and Britain were synonyms and in her British Lit class, that's not good. It's not really fault. Nobody told me that England was just a part of Britain and college is supposed to be where you learn things.  Anyway, she didn't let it pass and instead chose to mock me for my screw up. It's probably not a good idea to get on the professor's shit list on the first day of class, but I'm assuming she has a very big list.  It sure seems that way. Looking at the syllabus, this is way too much work for just an English class.

Dave the Roommate

Image
  My new roommate and I got to spend a lot of time together today. I think Dave and I are going to get along great. He's good looking, loves beer, and has already promised me that he won't be spending all his time in the dorm room leaving me plenty of time to entertain. The two of us got very wasted last night and I'm feeling it a bit. I think even though he's bigger than me, he's even worse off than I am. His taste in music kind of sucks, but we can't all be perfect. His taste in women is better, but he is warning me off of my current crush. I don't know if I trust my instincts or his.

First College Party

Image
  Wow! I went to my first frat party and it was everything I could have hoped for. I got so wasted for $10 playing beer pong, which I saw in high school, but never played myself. The girls there were amazing and so aggressive if that's the way to put it. Girls were hitting on me instead of me having to do the pursuing and I just wasn't used to it. I got the impression this might have had something to do with rush because the fraternity's big sisters were kind of laying it on a bit thick. I don't know if it was just the fraternity or what, but it seemed like a lot more girls were wearing dresses and heels than at a high school party. I got pretty shit-faced and slept it off for most of the morning.  

Finding Friends Fast

Image
  Even though classes haven't started yet, I've learned a few things about college life. It happens real fast. The girl you think is hot one day, turns out to be a real bitch the next. Friendships are being made and lost by the hour and that's way faster than I'm used to.  Found some great guys to hang out with today playing pool and video games. I want to go to some college parties though and tonight seems to be a good night for them as classes start for real on Thursday. I have met the roommate and he is alright. I think we'll get a long fine.
