A number of
the female students from PVHS recently attended the Pima County Women's
Conference. These are some of the things we learned at the
Conference.
We had a self-defense class and it taught us to always be alert, don't
turn your back and trust it will be ok, because you never know
when or where you will find danger.
We also had a stress management class it taught us how to deal with
tough subjects. Like for example, my friend just passed away and I
thought I wouldn't be able to cope with it. But now I just think of the
happy person he was and I don't let all the bad things the media is
saying he did get in the way of me thinking good things of him. I now
know he is in a better place. and that's basically how I am coping with
it. I'm just repeating to myself that he is in a much better place now.
This class was a great help.
Going to this Conference taught us a lot about ourselves and that we are
strong, Independent Young Women.
