Ugh I hate voice training so much but after yesterday's breakdown while trying and getting two "voice analysis" results showing "0% female, 92% male" I decided to watch some videos I've seen recommended, and honestly YuukoEX was the one that helped me the most because I feel like I can try to emulate her voice better than others I've heard.

After spending yesterday on exercises and trying to figure out various muscles around my throat, I managed this:

It's not much, but it's an improvement!

Also, I'm trying eye liner today! It's a little smudged in one or two spots, but it makes a HUGE difference in my own perception! I even took a face selfie! On purpose!! (for myself I am not nearly confident enough to post lol)

So if you need the reminder, I guess here it is!

Yeah I hate voice training. I'm getting surgery finally in August. I just lose my voice too often from straining to raise pitch, so hopefully that will help me.

And yeah, eyeliner is awesome, but a pain to apply. I've found I prefer the liquid instead of the pencils because it can be applied with very little pressure and goes exactly where you touch. Just took some practice to stabilize my arm while doing it and doing very short strokes which takes longer, but is less likely to require using remover and starting again.

    Who are you having your surgery done with? I'm hopeful to get gendered correctly on the phone at least once in my life time lmao

    The medical center of the university in my city had availability and is attached to the vocal therapist I use. Actually, this surgery is the only GAS surgery I've looked at that didn't have a waiting list, so it only is taking a while due to the insurance requiring various support letters to be written and the rest of the authorization process. Other care has taken years to get consultations, much less actual care.
