Decisions, Decisions...

I've made some decisions *dun dun duuuuuun*

Recently, after realising that I only have one more year of college left, I re-evaluated my plan.
I have decided that after college, I would like to take a break from education and get a full-time job for one or two years, before hopefully going to university, ideally abroad.


When it comes to transitioning, I have changed my mind a little. In January, I should be placed on the NHS top surgery waiting list *little dance of joy*. I was told by one of the doctors that what transmen usually do is get their top surgery done, then go off for about five or six years before coming back for bottom surgery (if they so wish).
However, I would quite like to move country as soon as possible. I would also like to get over as much struggle of being trans as quickly as possible and knowing that in a few years time I'd have to return for major surgery would always loom over me. THEREFORE, I have come to the conclusion (will probably change) that I would like to have lower surgery and get it out the way asap.
It's a very terrifying thought but it would mean that I could move on and live as much of my life as how I would like to be as possible. I like to think it will be done by my mid-twenties.
I know I will have a lot of support to get me through, so fingers crossed and I will keep you updated.
