#435 I am HIV positive passed down from my mother who used needles before she got saved (ive long since forgiven her). I went to ORU a few years ago, and I'm sure a couple people may know who this is. I'm not open about it, but a lot of people get angry I never told them until years after I knew them. Unless I either impale you with a hypodermic needle, give birth to you, or have sex with you, you can't get it. And if I wanted to kill you, I would have chosen an easier way, especially considering its not a death sentence anymore (and no, I wouldn't kill anyone). I know no one wants this, I have a compromised immune system and have to take a lot of pills. Its pretty similar to my friend who has lupus. But I'm realizing the lack of sex ed in the Midwest has made people think they could get it by me sneezing around them, us holding hands, or (and I've gotten this before) "accidentally using my toothbrush." Hepatitis would be a much bigger issue. HIV, no. And you wouldn't believe the amount of people I get who actually have the nerve to mention my so-called lifestyle, as if heterosexuals aren't actually the biggest group with HIV (im straight anyways), and as if I did anything to get this. It's really pathetic to get verbally attacked and judged by holier than thous for inheriting a virus.

#434 I graduated BMC four years ago and found gonorrhea in the microbiology lab freezer. I knew my boyfriend was cheating on me, so I took a hypodermic needle and inserted some of the bacteria into his condom (with the wrapper on) having no idea if it was still active or not. I broke up with him, and was told by my friend that he had a huge fight with some nursing major involving sentences such as "I didn't cheat I swear, so I don't know how you gave it to me." I'm still laughing. thank you, whoever worked with gonorrhea for senior research.

#433 I had an abortion once, and made the mistake of sharing my "testimony" with a classroom (common ORU freshman year mistake lol). A lot of people say that only 1% of women who have abortions are raped, but it doesn't take into account the amount of women who are in abusive relationships. I'm not saying it's right, but it's definitely not okay to be perfectly fine with people who destroyed their lives with drugs and then get all quiet when I share my testimony and call me a whore to other girls, especially considering they didn't even care about the scars on my body from where he hit me. You'd think I said I was Hitler. I wasn't even remotely slutty or a whore. We spend a lot of time fighting about abortion, but very little time helping women who are suffering with depression after having one (and I don't want to make pro-choicers angry here, as someone who has personally had one it's very rare to not have a lot of mixed feelings afterwards). It's not just "some atheist agenda so women can be whores." MOST women who have abortions are Christians, and even 20 percent are married. I know a married women myself who had an abortion. I never wanted to have one. I think coming to the school helped me realize the amount of women who need comfort, and I really want to start an organization that doesn't cause self-hatred or just throw assumptions about why they did it. God forgave me a long time ago, so I wish his followers would too.

#433 I live in Gabby specifically so I can hide alcohol easier and sleep over at my boyfriend's house without anyone caring. When I lived in Claudius, I found a lot of girls that began drinking after freshman year, but a lot of them were turning each other in and getting in trouble. It wasn't fun and was like being in high school for many different reasons. When I'd sign out to my "friends house," they all knew where I was going and would gossip about how slutty that was (even though it was a closed relationship). I even had to meet with the dean because of it, which meant so many girls were bitching about a grown adult spending the night at her boyfriend's, that my RA found out and was "concerned" about it. At least my hallways were like that, upper claudius is probably better. I'm a senior this year, and have to say I'm one of those weirdos that enjoy living in gabby. It's like having my own tiny apartment, aside from stupid hall meeting. You can really get away with almost anything there.
