So, this is my first semester as a SafeSite! I'm so glad that I got to be picked. I started writing emails to staff members about setting up a table on my campus and posting posters on the bulletin boards. I didn't think that this was going to go so well. On the first day that I took part of the box to school, I had taken 84 condoms to distribute. I ran out before my second class of the day. Then on the second day, I had taken another stack and I had ran out again. I only had 70 in my bag and distributed them all! I've already got another bag ready to go and I'm hoping to hand all of them out.

What was REALLY cool was that one day I was sitting in the game room with some students and a member of the SGA came in looking for me because he had gotten a call from our college's president and she wanted to hang up posters in some of the offices. Everyone I was with thought I was in trouble, so they started to cheer when they heard what she wanted to do.
