What's happening with the AIDS epidemic concerns me, I find that I talk about it a lot. Most of my friends are sexually active. For example they might tell me, "Yeah, I'm on my way to my boyfriend's house...", and I'll say "Fine", then I bring up the 'big' situation. I say to them, "AIDS is dangerous, anybody can get it - teenagers, even babies are being born with it." My friends think I'm trying to scare them, but I'm just giving them the real information. I believe in safe sex. I believe in taking care of myself, because I have a lot of plans for my future.
