Forst Elves-A Pair of Beautiful Youtube Musicians

       I recently came across a YouTube Channel by the name of Forest Elves. I listened to one song (Cry of the Forest) and immediately subscribed. Their music is enchanting, and the vocals are just perfect. Jordi's (the male singer's) voice in particularly really resonates with me as elven. I'm not sure why. I've read some elven otherkin say they heard or watched something and it just felt right. I guess this is like that.
       Other than that, I don't have a lot to share right now. I have other stuff I should be doing. I have a post or two planned soon.

I've been tagged!

       I am a bad blogger. I announce that I am back and then...do nothing. Absolutely nothing.

5 Things You Need Everyday

1. Time and stuff to read. It's one of my favorite things to do.
2. In a related note, my library card. Yes, I go to the library enough for this to be an everyday need.
3. Sunblock. I love being outside and gardening, but I don't really want to burn or tan. Speaking of gardening...
4. A shovel. I may or may not be responsible for certain incedinces of guerrilla gardening in my area. Everyone needs some flowers in their life.
5. My yoga ball. It's the most comfortable place to sit that has ever existed.

5 Books You Would Recommend

1. Everyday by David Levithan. This mirrors some of my own thoughts about sexuality. It follows the life of a character who wakes up in a different body everyday.
2. A Field Guide to Otherkin by Lupa. If you are curious about otherkin at all, you really need to read this.
3. Anything and everything by the Silver Elves. The Silver Elves are some of the first people to publicly call themselves elves and their books are wonderful.
4. The Woman in the Wall by Patrice Kindl. A young girl constructs secret passages in her house and lives there. I just really like the idea of it.
5. The Tree Shepherd's Daughter series. Of course I had to mention a series with elves. What did you expect?

5 Materialistic Wishes For Christmas Presents

1. An elven star pendant.
2. Dark green nail polish, because I go through it so quickly.
3. Black shoe polish. Boots are good for climbing, but it scuffs them up.
4. Elf ear cuffs, possibly like these.
5. Vegetables or herbs to plant in my garden.

5 Places You Wish To Visit

1. Stonehenge
2. The pyramids
3. Paris
4. Any place with a goth festival or otherkin gathering
5. Ireland

5 Adjectives That Describe You

1. unusual
2. quiet
3. mischevious
4. crafty
5. adventurous

 5 Things You'd Say to People About Life

1. Be who you actually are. You are who you are and you like what you like for a reason. Embrace it.
2. Even if you can't publicly talk about your quirks, find a way to express them, be it through writing, drawing, or whatever you like. That's kind of what this blog is supposed to be if I ever actually post regularly.
3. On the other side of that, recognize and accept that not everyone is going to be like you.
4. Do something just because it's awesome, nice, and amazing. (glamour bombs anyone?)
5. We only have one Earth. Seriously. Take care of it. Go plant something or...something.

 Tag, you're it!
Hmm...I don't know many blogs. I would if I actually spent more time online, but technology sometimes makes me a bit uncomfortable. I'd love to link to other elven bloggers, but as it is I haven't found any active ones. Here's some other people though:

1.  Solomon Terra (I don't know if this is the kind of thing they'd be interested in, but I picked them because I want to spread awareness of their blog.)
2. Yeshe Rabbit
3. Fire Lyte
4. Maiingan
5. Neferet

The goth blogging community seemed pretty well covered, so I branched out. The first one is about, well, aliens, and the others are pagan blogs.

I'm back, I Hope : )

       I am so sorry I have been away so long. This past year has been a confusing one for me. I started high school and I've been questioning...well, everything really. Religion, sexuality, gender identity, my being an elfkin, pretty much everything that constitutes my view of self was called into question.
        As a result I completely forgot I had a blog. Literally. It took my about an hour to be able to sign back in because I had to find my password and whatnot.
       I'm still not sure what I'm going to post here, and it's not going to be pictures for my own privacy's sake. Perhaps I'll just talk about myself, in which case are you ready for the adventures of a teenage, biologically female, eclectic pagan, post modern sexual, goth, elf who doesn't identify with either the male or female gender? I hope you are, because I don't think I am. I don't have much of a choice though, truthfully.
***A note on the term "post modern sexual": I don't actually particularly like or commonly use this term but it can be useful in situations like this. I prefer not to label my sexuality as desire is desire and love is love. That's pretty much what post modern sexuality is. However, I have at times also gone by the term pansexual meaning someone who can be attracted to or in love with someone who is male, female, androgynous, or transgendered.

Elfkin: I am Vs. I Think I am

       I have said I am an elfkin. I'm not sure if I actually am, but in feels right to me. If any elfkin see this and think I am wrong, I am deeply sorry. It is fully possible it's just wishful thinking on my part. I think I am elfkin, and really that's all I know. I've done some research, but not as much as I probably should before claiming anything for sure. I will continue to research and be fascinated by elfkin and otherkin in general. Maybe I'll find out I was wrong. Maybe I'll prove I was right. There's no way for me to know yet.
       I'll do a post actually explaining elfkin and otherking at some point, but I just had to get these thoughts out of my head.
