Homelessness

The speaker we had on Tuesday was a little bit intimidating at first. He was so loud and kept yelling profanities it was slightly uncomfortable. He was interesting to listen to though because he had a lot of good stories and information that was different misconceptions most people have of troubled teens and homeless people. When he was showing us pictures of the people on meth and talking about it, it made me slightly nauseous because the pictures were gross and the things that people put into their bodies was disturbing. I never really thought that meth was as common as it was, but it makes sense that people who use it become addicted and start losing everything, ending up on the streets. By the end of the lecture he didn't seem as intimidating, and I actually learned a lot from his speech.
