Is it Really Over?

First and foremost, I would like to thank Lily for giving us the opportunity to come together in a non-threatening environment to talk about issues that are not usually discussed in an open atmosphere. I'm happy that we were not afraid to speak our minds, and I felt like I could throw out any topic and there would be a meaningful response. It was evident that every girl was interested in the topics at hand, and I've actually never seen a more talkative class in my life! I think this class also gave us an opportunity to think about why these issues aren't discussed, and that we can help with the cause. There was always something interesting to be learned, and in every class, many girls would end up telling funny stories or experiences (I especially enjoyed period day). I think this gave us the opportunity to get to know each other on a more personal level as well, and that really made the atmosphere so much more enjoyable. I would have to say that this is one of my favorite classes that I have taken at Saint Mary's and I'm going to miss being excited for Tuesdays and Thursdays just because I knew something amusing was going to happen. Last, I would have to admit that at first, I was not very happy with having to post to a blog or comment on others. However, I have fully changed my opinion and I am a supporter of keeping the blog open even though the class is over. It has become a place that I can visit and speak my mind on whatever issue I feel I need to talk about. This class should be required for the entire school. And that is all.
