Droplets from the voyage of a trans-woman

I finally got the medical record of my visit. It is written in finnish, so translation is mine with the help of Google translate, so it might not be as accurate it could be as the language is very complicated (lots of passive forms and so). I have added some notes or omitted parts of text in between, which are marked [like this]. The diagnose was also added to national health database system finally. Note: Third person (he/she/it) in finnish is gender neutral (hän) so I have translated those as "he" as it is most accurate in this point still. 30.11.2017 TRANS-clinic (YSPT), initial estimate Reason of entry Reference has been received about patient from psychiatrist [name censored].

This week has been interesting. I have drank alcohol in three days, walked home on every of those days and wore bit more... "revealing" shirt. Let's start with shirt.

I have used it whole week now, so every day in work and so one. The interesting fact is that no-one did comment it at work in any way. Maybe they are getting used to it little by little, which is good thing. And I have enjoyed so much every moment I have used this shirt. I just love it 💓 On Tuesday, one of my friends posted to facebook that she will go to pub and people may join her if anyone wants. I thought that is this a threat or a possibility, and decided that as I might have been bit lonely lately, this is definitely a possibility. And went there. Had great time, had opportunity to meet couple new friends as well. Alth

Today was new Tracon organizing crew kick-off and advent party. The kick-off was hosted at my workplace as our cafeteria was big enough for 60 people. After the kick-off was official advent party and some after-parties. So, another year starting for Tracon. Today was the kick-off of the new organizing crew, called conitea, so everyone has seen each other hopefully at least once, as there was introduction of all the teams and I said "learn to know me as Siika as my first name is going to change in about half a year" as I didn't want to make too much of a point about my process but make it obvious anyway. There was also some informational presentations from how things should be done and about privacy and security (GDPR is closing in anyway) as well as way of working. I made small presentation about confluence and jira, without preparing and thinking what I should talk about. And I was last one before parties and we was behind of schedule so I tried to shrink it down. So
