I like tea. Also I am the only one here from the Bahamas as far as I know.
But you're moving to Texas. For the internet.

Only enlightened space adventurers can enjoy the true joy of tea (I actually dont drink tea or coffee or anything all too much)
I just drink water and milk. And eggnog.

I just drink water, TEA WHICH IS THE BEST THING EVER and orange juice
On topic... I can't wait to finally be able to correct people on Twitter and the rest of GAF on using the correct gender pronouns >_>
I'm definitely being too paranoid about this, but I'm also doing it to make a clean break.

I - I wasn't under the impression you weren't out on twitter o_., well its a good thing gender hardly ever really comes up there in talking to you.
As long as we can all agree that green tea mochi ice cream is one of the most delicious things ever, then we're fine.
Indeed.
*Rubs her cast iron teapot and all of her various teas*
I mostly drink water, tea, and juice. But I still have soda here and there. Not really a fan of milk (aside from chocolate milk) or eggnog.

I Love eggnog. Also i like orange juice. Not together before anyone asks.
WRONG:
That's the true nectar of life, or vodka/tequila. Even if i drink at least 3lt of water a day.
BTW, never knew/taste that what you call eggnog, although i'm very fond for rompope

I'm actually genderless on Twitter, I said that I won't reveal my gender because of privacy concerns and that people can refer to me however they want and I won't correct them, so you're welcome to do as you want
Things will change later this month, I believe I already mentioned it earlier here but I have a real life friend that I haven't told about it yet following me, and I'd prefer to tell her in person rather than her learning it from Twitter.
We've been living in differnet countries for the last few years so meeting has been kinda difficult. We should finally be able to meet during winter vacation so after that I'll make things clear on Twitter too, look forward to the fireworks!
I'm a bit worried about the possible reaction from a couple of followers but if they bother me about it I'll just block them mercilessly and stop thinking about it.
I'm sorry I haven't been very supportive in there, I promise things will change as soon as I'm able to talk more freely about it!
Also I hate coffee
Clearly you have not experienced the fine nuances of space tea.
Mochi ice cream
It looks weird, but trust me when I say that it's super yummy.

Hey shin. I don't really have a reason to post in here but I saw your screenname on the "last post" column by random chance. I hope natalie and billie and all the others here give you the type of support and such if you need, being in a situation I can't really understand to the same degree.
I don't have much to say other than you have my support, if it means anything. Obviously I won't bring anything up over twitter. I look forward to the day when the situation allows you to come out without unneeded scrutiny or hate. Good luck!
I had the perfect GIF as well. That mocha ice cream is the weirdest flavor I've heard of.
Is eggnog an non England thing I've never seen it over here.

but isn't tea supposed to be bitter???
I hate that so much aslo coupled with people who kinda botch it up and end up giving me practically warm milk because the took they teabag to quickly.
That picture is just great Butterfly.
It depends on the kind of tea, and your personal preference. I don't like it when my tea is bitter so I steep it for less time; I prefer a lighter flavor.

Mochi ice cream

All mochi ice cream is weird and delicious. Then again, mochi is weird and...okay, it's mostly just weird.
If I could give advice to any young person, it would be to find another vice.
Didn't one women drink so much her children where born without tooth enamel?
I think I was confused with something else http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/2671931/ a lady died due to her coke cola habit.
A friend of mine ended in ER for his coca-cola habit. I have to help him to get to his house so his family can take him to the nearest emergency unit because he can't even walk or move. His kidneys are messed up for life now.
Hey look !
Two and a Half Man had an episode with a trans woman !
And it is getting praise ... because it didn't used the word man or tranny to refer to the character !
...but almost everything else is there =|

Fuckin' CBS.
If you're close and/or she supports you then hopefully. Only you're going to know. I was lucky in a way. My immediate family were supportive, and the ones that weren't or didn't get it, I barely see anyway. When I get crap off random people out and about it's something I remind myself of.
I think having someone on your side who can articulate what it's like to not be of the cisgendered mainstream will help. Particularly if your cousin has been accepted by your family. They need to know they're not losing you, that you're just changing. In many ways you'll still be the you that they know.
I'd probably advise avoiding loading them with all the terminology that comes with being trans at first (such as the variety of differences under the transgender umbrella and terms like cis), and see if they can get their heads around the basics.
