When I'm An Old Gay

When I become an old gay, I plan to have married my current partner and have at least two children. One from adoption, and one from a surrogate. I want to have my own house, and would love to have designed my own house for my husband and I to retire in to, somewhere that is quiet, yet gay-friendly. I want to be surrounded by my children and their families. I grew up pretty much with just my father, my brother, and me. So I guess that is the reason I want to be surrounded by family, and let my children know they will have family around them for support. I will discipline my children, but only in a way that they will respect their elders. I will never spoil my children to the point that they think they will deserve everything under the sun. I wasn't given everything that most of my friends had, and I think that made me more respecting of the things I actually do have. I can't wait

School, Living, & Gaga

I'm taking a mini-mester at school right now, its three weeks straight of 3 hour a day classes. It gets you 3 credits, except its remedial, so I'm kind of still working towards my math credit. I really wish all my classes could be like this. I could spend three weeks with each class and only have to focus on one class, and not get things mixed in with each other, or try to cram for two tests at once. Oh boy, I can't wait to be finished with school. Just two more years. I am only able to write this right now because I actually have finished my homework and have no other classes to study for. So I thought I would update and let my followers know.

Disconnecting Myself

"Ok I'll admit!!! I am addicted to online social media. :-( It's something that is sweeping the Internet and everyone, most everyone, is apart of. It's hard to say, but I just do not want to be apart of the Facebook social media part. I have been on there for two years, possibly over 2,000 status updates, and even more likes and comments. Out of the blue, my boyfriend tells me that he is deactivating his Facebook account. He says he spends too much time on Facebook. This made me realize that I do the same, but probably worse.


Many times when I plan on studying or reading some of my books, Facebook somehow finds a way to lure me in. Whether it's just sitting there with the home screen waiting for people to update or searching through friends pictures and status updates. This is horrible. Suddenly two hours later

Texas, you bore me

I do have to admit, if it weren't for my boyfriend, I would most likely be saving up to move out of state, somewhere closer to the West Coast. Possibly somewhere in Washington or California. Even if I were never to move to either place, I would love to visit some day. Ever since learning what the Castro street was, I have always been intrigued on visiting a gay neighborhood that is as large as this area. Montrose in Houston is a gay neighborhood, but there are still a good majority of straight people, and more homeless people than you can count on all fingers and toes, times 50.

I have always wanted to play a part in the community, but living 30 minutes north of it can be a hassle. Since Annise Parker was elected in 2008 as the first gay mayor of a large city, I have wanted to play a bigger part in my community. I have gone to many gay pride parades, and have even hit up many of the gay clubs. I think my next step is to volunteer at a homeless shelter, or HATCH(Houston Area Teen Coalition of Homosexuals), or even an AIDs center. One of these things would definitely satisfy my need to contribute to the GLBT community.
