So, most of us have probably heard the song from Grease, Summer Lovin’, I was thinking about summer today and this song came into my mind. You are probably thinking…why is she telling me this? Well let me be frank! It is summer time for most of us and we are ready to relax and have a little fun before it all starts over next semester.

Fact: When people drink they are more likely to have unprotected sex!! And what happens when we have unprotected sex? STD’s, HIV and unplanned pregnancy! Not a fun way to spend the summer!

So what can you do to ensure a safe summer?
1) Always use a condom…even if its your first time, or you’re in a hot tub, or you/she is on the pill

2) Don’t forget that you can get STD’s from oral sex

3) Get yourself tested!!! (check with Planned Parenthood and your campus Health Center for confidential and very affordable services

4) Don’t drink/use drugs and drive

5) Wear sunscreen

6) Oh and don’t forget ALWAYS USE A CONDOM (did I say that already)

Next semester we are going to have a lot of stories to tell. Make sure that you have good stories to tell!! Be safe everyone and have a great summer!!!
