Health Class

When i first started taking health i really didn't like it, but now that we are learning interesting things i actually enjoy it. The things that we are learning now i can relate to because they target teens like me. At first i didn't understand the purpose of a health class but now i do. Health class informs you about your health and body, and how things around you in society can affect your life. In class we are currently learning about STI's. A STI is a sexual transmitted infection. We learned about bacterial STIs and viral STIs. Bacterial STIs are vaginitis, chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphillis and pelvic inflammatory. Viral STIs are genital herpes, human papilomavirus/ genital warts, hepatitis and HIV/AIDS. The most common STI out of all these listed is Chlamydia. Chlamydia is caused by a bacterium. Chlamydia can effect both men and women. It can cause serious , permanent damage to a womans reproductive system.

Dedication To TMA

6 Years strong and I dont regret any of it. Being in TMA I learned a life lesson I will never forget. Which is “ If you want something don't let anything or anybody stop you from succeeding. TMA gave me so much confidence and strength to work toward my future. Im so glad I grew up and remained focused. In TMA I've truly met some wonderful people who have impacted my life in many ways. During this journey I lost good friends and gained better ones. I made sure that I stayed with those who encouraged and believed in me. My close friends turned into my family and I couldn't have done it without them. Although It wasn't easy I succeed because god wouldnt put me through anything I cant handle. My journey at TMA has come to an end but my life journey has yet to begin.
