    Today I finally came out to the last of my friends. It was probably the laziest coming out I have ever done and I will probably have to explain some things, but as far as I am concerned it counts. It went down something like this.

    I decided that I wasn't going to hide anymore so I just threw on the rainbow bracelet I bought a few days ago and hung out with my friends. We hung out for hours and none of them noticed it. but finally one of my friends started talking to me about how hot our waiter at Hooters was (long story) and instead of just ignoring him or agreeing with him as I usually would. When he asked me what I thought I looked at him raised my hand and pointed at my bracelet.

    He stared at it for a second and then finally oh ya that's right. Another friend who I didn't tell gave a confused look and after a about a minute finally said "wait are you saying what I think your saying" I simply replied "yep I'm gay now". He asked a few questions. nothing much just why and since when? Now I doubt he will honestly believe me or really remember the next time we hang out. But now I finally feel like I have the confidence to finally completely and truly come out.

    wow, adorable story! I have been planning to get a rainbow bracelet for a while, but I never considered that it could actually be a coming out tool! (of course it is less out of the ordinary if a straight girl is wearing a rainbow bracelet... damn) anyway, congrats!
