There is a massive christmas tree in the visitor center at my school that needed a holiday makeover!!!! I ordered some personalized buttons a couple of weeks ago from CafePress.com, and turned them into ornaments...so that I could hang them from the christmas tree! I did not have any condoms left but I was able to buy a wholesale amount at Sam's club with some money that I had from a car wash we had. I taped a Trojan ecstacy condom on the back of each ornament! I announced in the dorms that there were condom ornaments on the tree in the visitor center, and if you took one you had to wear the condom when needed, and you had to wear the button all of the time!...

They were gone within an hour. I saw about a hundred people with buttons on!!

So...I worked this morning. Boo-hissssss.

The governor of NH comes into the restaurant I work at and eats lunch with his family quite often. He came into today and I greeted him with my redbull wings, and giant smile!

He looked at me weird...he said "Aren't you the condom girl?"

I think I turned all shades of red, but I couldn't figure out how he knew.....how the governor of NH new I was the condom girl!

He then informed me that he watched me in front of the State House in my giant condom suit pass out condoms to senators, and politicians. He said that he liked what I was doing, and it takes a lot of gumption to be a giant condom...so I gave him a condom. Ka-ching!

I have kept a condom in my pocket to give out ever since I got the box. His wife rolled her eyes, and said you wish and then they went in to have lunch.

So...I know I didn't get down to the “nitty-gritty” with him mostly because I didn't want to ruin his family time.

BUT

Holy Henry's Overalls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Governor Lynch saw me prancing around as a condom, and he thinks it’s great what we are doing.

That alone, is priceless!

So I received my box of condoms, and I got happy feet the second I ripped it open and saw the glorious sea of gold!

I’ve had my safesite sticker up on my door, and students are actually pretty responsive to it. I knew that I didn't want to be boring with this, and I didn't want to just have condoms in my room when people needed them...I wanted to make it known that safe sex is the way to go if you are going to have sex.

Word got out that there were free condoms on campus, and I have been so busy with condom requests it is crazy! I have made these mini pamphlets about Amplify and GACC so that the word gets out there. I also have attached some basic information about safe sex, and the struggle schools are facing with the lack of sex education.

I'm really close with my mom and I said one day jokingly, "I am going to make a condom suit!!!" We laughed about for a couple minutes but then I really wanted to make one.

SO......I DID!!!!!

My goal was to be known at school as a safesite, and I have accomplished that goal. I also have talked to several high school students to see where they stand on sex education, and college and growing up in the world, but I needed to venture out more...

I found two large pieces of square cardboard and I painted them gold yellow just like the Trojan wrapper. I painted the cardboard just like the wrapper so that I was a living condom. I stood in front of the state house in Concord, NH and passed out condoms to senators, and several congress men and women. It was nice being able to talk directly to the folks who bring make things happen in our government, and I wanted to leave a lasting impression. I did get a few weird eyes. I did get several honks. Overall it was very successful! I passed out over 250 condoms in one day.

And I had fun doing it!

How many other times in my life am I going to be able to be a life size condom?

I have photos on the way!!!
