Here's a bit of a time line in pictures of how I've changed in the past couple of years. Or as I like to call it, The Evolution of Mighty Max. The title given to me by Raelyn.
End of 8th grade, long hair, first started looking for a name.
Started cutting my hair- mid July. Started going by M publicly, towards the end of camp.
Mid-late August found a name that suited me. Started going by Max online and in The Fellowship
First day of school- Started going by Max publicly
A month into the school year- came out to mother
Cut my hair again- Mental health was in a pretty good place
Outed by Brother- Develops Adjustment Disorder, Diagnosed with Mild Naroclepsy
Sunday- Finally cut my hair very short, continues to go by Max publicly, still continues a rocky home life.
And so the continuing evolution of Might Max.
I like your current hair.
ReplyDeleteThank you :) I do too. Oh and I'm almost finished with another story! Valan, Sammie, and Yuuri go see Steve to find out what's going on with MindCrack
DeleteSneak Peak: . “Yes you heard me correctly, the state and situation of this school is illegal. And the terminology for the current situation is in fact, an Epidemic. The definition of the word epidemic is a widespread occurrence of an infectious disease or other event, habit, or behavior in a community at a particular time. In this case it is Suicide, Overdose, and Major Depressive Disorder.”
The Evolution of Mighty Max.... Love it!! That's right, I did give you that title, huh? ;)
ReplyDeleteI love your current hairdo!! ;-D
'Still continues a rocky home life.' How are you doing, Friend? I am sending hugs through the computer screen!! Can you feel them? I am also sending prayers your way!! For you.... Dad.... Mum.... Winston.... Even Sarah!! ;)

PS. Did you know that today is #WorldBookDay? It was trending on Twitter last time I checked!! ;-D
You did indeed! Thank you, I love it too! I'm doing alright, ups and downs, it all depends on the day and everyone else's mood. I spend most of my days either out of the house or shut in my room to be honest. I send hugs back, thanks for that. Sarah says she appreciates it, with everything that's been going on with politics and everything, and the JCC threats. That's also partly why my writing has been taking some rather dark turns lately, that or it's a crossover with Ender Chan who currently is writing the middle of a suicide epidemic! My writing tends to draw on my emotions and put them into different situations. Sometimes I'm happy so I write funny,cute, happy stuff. Sometimes I'm sad so my writing is a bit to very dark. Sometimes I'm just mad so it can be a variety of things.
ReplyDeleteIt is?! Cool I'll have to check that out!!!
Mighty Max....
DeleteI am breaking this very LONG reply into twain parts!! I so cannot do Twitter!! Ha!! ;-D
'I'm doing alright, ups and downs, it all depends on the day and everyone else's mood. I spend most of my days either out of the house or shut in my room to be honest.' I understand, Friend.... Spending every day shut in your room--writing, mostly--I have been there.... Different circumstances.... But I have definitely been there. Maybe you should try and get out a little more? Hugs.... Prayers.... ;)
'I send hugs back, thanks for that. Sarah says she appreciates it, with everything that's been going on with politics and everything, and the JCC threats.' Anytime, Sarah!! I did not know anything about the JCC threats.... Until I Google-searched it. That is frightening beyond frightening.... Especially if you are Jewish.... Hopefully--without getting political--somebody will be able to solve that issue. Hugs.... Prayers.... ;)
A 'suicide epidemic'? Oooohhh.... That sounds interesting!! What, exactly, is a 'suicide epidemic'? Do tell!! I want to know!! ;)

Mighty Max....
Delete'My writing tends to draw on my emotions and put them into different situations. Sometimes I'm happy so I write funny, cute, happy stuff. Sometimes I'm sad so my writing is a bit to very dark. Sometimes I'm just mad so it can be a variety of things.' I absolutely, wholeheartedly, one-hundred percent understand, Friend!! From an artist--a writer--to another!! I have been approaching my fictional stories lately in the same exact fashion!! Yes, yes.... They draw on my emotions and put them into different situations. Yes, yes.... Sometimes I'm happy so I write funny, cute, happy stuff. Yes, yes.... Sometimes I'm sad so my writing is a bit dark. Either that, or {as a tragedian}, I am simply in the mood to write something dark and kill off a character!! Yes, yes.... Sometimes I am just mad so it can be a variety of things. Just like with you, Friend!! This is how I approach my fictional story writing as an artist, this quote....
I'm sort of in the process of just working on what is speaking to me at a particular moment. That's very common for me right now. --Bruce Springsteen, January 9th, 2014

I try to get out a bit more but the problem is my friends live on the other side of town, a 15-30 minute walk! And my parents can be controlling and over protective with not letting me go places alone though they let Winston walk alone to his friends house in the middle of the night, and Andrew lives farther away than even Greyson! We've talked about it at Fellowship Friday and at temple and Hebrew School. It's terrifying. Hopefully so, and soon. A suicide epidemic? Well it's a normal definition of an epidemic though the disease/behavior is suicide. Read the post after this titled Epidemic to find out. It's riddled with various little bits of humor and a particular constantly sleepy Elf who doesn't speak English very well but he tries named Yuuri. My writing lately has been either dark and gritty or funny and happy. Or a bit of both, though I am working on a really dark story (alcoholism and sexual assult are mentioned as a prior warning) the thing with me is I don't kill off characters I more take characters and develop tragedies to out them through. As I call Character Torture. Though I must say Maisie has finished a quick cute thing I just have to post it now. Though she is still working on another much larger thing but it's been interrupted because of filming.
DeleteI'll give you a sneak peak of what I'm working on now :)
I can't tell. He won't let me tell. If I do I wonder what would happen? No, don't do it. Close your eyes, forget it. Go away, go away, go away!
“Ali? Why are you on the floor?” Dalish nudges me with her boot. I blink and shake my head waiting for my vision to focus. “Huh?” I look at her. “You were standing really still then you just kinda fell over and hit the ground.” She replies extending her staff, or excuse me, her bow with one hand and the other gripping skinner's hand tightly. She pulls me up and I brush the dust off my clothes. “You okay kid?” Bull asks from his seat at the bar. I shrug “I guess, probably just tired.” I say and walk out the door back towards Skyhold."
It gets darker later on.
