September 30, 2011 - First Day

Sam already knew back in freshman year. I decided to come out about being bisexual to a select few people today in Concert Choir. Balding was first. He had a very positive response and said we were still best friends and he'd support me. It was a very encouraging way to start a nerve-wrecking day. At lunch, I told Lexy, Gabby, and Tyler. All three totally backed me up and Lexy gave me the biggest hug I've had in a long time. =) The most challenging person to tell was Ryan. I was leary because of his strong religious views. I was pleasantly suprised to hear him say it was fine and he'd "look past it". Although he may look at it as a fault, I can live with it. It was off my chest and we are still best friends. I'm doing this mostly for myself, but also to show other people what it's like to live this life. No negative reactions happened today, but I know they're coming. It'll spread like wildfire and by the time I get to school, school could be hell. Thanks for keeping it a secret for so long, Sam! You have NO IDEA how much it means to me. LOVE YOU! <3
