I thought today's class was really interesting. The speaker was really fun and energetic. The stuff he talked about was really intense but I'm glad he came to talk to our class about it. I didn't know half of the things that he talked about. I always knew that there were homeless people around but I had no idea to the extent that there are so many in Lincoln. It's really sad looking at all of the pictures of where they live all year round. It was sad hearing about the stories about the troubled kids or runaways. I had no idea that some kids were that badly involved with drugs and sex. I feel like I'm oblivious to a lot of things that go on in my everyday life. It was kind of nice to have a reality check about what's really going on.
