Totally have a "Write Love" day like I did. [: On their website, they have some really cool 50 packs of cards that say a part of Renee's story, so I bought 3 of those [it ended up costing lest than 10 bucks, pretty cool], and so, I went to my principal and told him all about TWLOHA [it was a wee bit awkward, not going to lie there], and got the "Write Love" day approved. Thankfully, he was all for it. He sent an email out to the teachers about it and asked them to pass it along to their students [one teacher even showed videos about TWLOHA to each of his classes on the day]. Also, he read the mission statement over the announcements every morning, told people why they were being asked to write love on their arms, and told them that if they had any questions, they could ask me or my friend Molly, another huge supporter of the movement. So, we had the day on the Wednesday before exam week - it was a much needed stress reliever. I hand made about 10 signs, and printed 30-40 fliers and had a guy put them up for me whilst learning what the movement was [what a guy!]..
andddd then Tuesday night, I must've Facebook chatted 70 people with "I hope you plan on being really awesome and writing love on your arms tomorrow" -- so, I got a lot of questions about what it was then, and even more the next day -- I handed out the little cards religiously and overall, I'd say it was a huge success. I plan on having another day at the beginning of April but taking it a step further and organizing a little session about it A lunch, B lunch, C lunch, and D lunch where I would talk, I'd show a short video clip, and I'd have two very brief guest speakers to speak [one being a student at a nearby college who I've been speaking with about it, and the other being that one teacher who showed the videos - he had to resign a few weeks ago because of medical reasons, but he is very loved and he's very interested in helping this along however he can]. So, I'm hoping to do that. Then, next year, I'll leave it in the hands of Molly [who is a junior] to make it even bigger and hopefully develop some little sort of community based on TWLOHA. And of course, if I go to the local private college I'm planning on, I'll be here and there to help with that as well! =D
*breathes* Phew. That was long. xD
Also, note: This wasn't the national TWLOHA day - it was our school's own support day. =D

Penguins. Girls. Guitar Hero. My laptop. My bed. My iPod. My therapist. The color purple. Tinkerbell. Cute pillowcases. Rainbow things. Ice cream.
My name's Maria, I'm 17, live in Colorado, and am a senior in high school.
I came to Teenhelp August 2006. Mostly because I was just depressed. Since then, I've seen a number of therapists, I was diagnosed with depression, in a mental hospital for four days, diagnosed with a mood disorder (basically bipolar), diagnosed ADHD, and now I'm doing better.
I'm homoflexible to put a name to it. I usually prefer girls, but I'm totally cool with anyone of any sexuality.
I'm liberal, and theres only a few things you won't find me have a very liberal view on, and I love debating. And seeing other points of view.
Feel free to drop me a PM any time, I love talking to people. You can also ask me for my msn, I'm on it a lot. I also have a LiveJournal and Facebook If you want to add me on any of them, just ask me!
