Why Do Girls Have Sex???
I read the chapter why do girls have sex? In the book titled virgin sex for girls. My favorite story is "In Love" by Kayla. She's a 17 year old girl that was a virgin. She fell in love with a boy named Tom. They both worked at a park. This is my favorite story because Tom and Kayla got to know each other before they started their relationship. tom didn't pressure her about having sex, and he respected her. He made sure that having sex and her losing her virginity with him is what she really wanted. They became more close and after they had sex. Even thou they broke up because they were going to different schools she didn't regret loosing her virginity to him because he was always a good guy.

Assignment #5
I revised the Websites IEmily for Girls and Teens Health. On these website i learn all about Asthma, Diabetes and Marijuana. Asthma is a lung condition that causes a person to have difficulty breathing : more than 6 million kids and teens have it. The way people take care of it is by using inhalers and peak flow meters. Diabetes is a condition that occurs when the body cant glucose normally. The way people manage diabetes is by taking insulin or pills. They can also Exercise, Play Sports and Eat Healthy Foods. Marijuana is the most used illegal Drug used in the United States. Its a dry , Shredded Brown/Green mixed flowers, stems, seeds, and leaves of the plant Cannabis Sativa. When a young adult is making a choice they should always thing about what's best for them. Being a teen can be hard because your in the borderline of a kid and an adult but just think what's best for you. On one of the websites i took a quiz on relationships. It had questions on proper ways speak to your partner and i got all the answers correct. I found that interesting because i know the right way to address a situation but sometimes i just choose not to do it the right way. I also did a cross word puzzle on puberty and i didn't do so well, i guess i just forgot what i went threw in puberty.

Assignment #2
The Book i read is called Girl Source. I read page 56 and 57. The section i read about was "How do i know if I'm ready for sex?'' I predicted that this book would be about teenage sex, relationships, and health. My predictions were correct because the book explains about all of these topics.
Interesting information that i learned was that one group of young woman (ages 15 to 18) said the only reason they'd have sex was ''to express feelings or love'' especially after going out with somebody for a long time. I think thats important because most people i know lost their virginity out of curiosity, not because they felt they loved their partner. I chose to share this because its interesting and very important , a lot of teens can relate to this too. I learned that girls loose their virginity for many different reasons but my question is did they think it was worth it? Another topic I'm interested in learning about Relationships. I feel its important to know how to manage a relationship and how to get out of a bad one too.
