Mathias found this mug for me, which is kind of perfect because I’m generally known to be pretty enthusiastic and it’s been feeling like a pretty successful year for me. I’ve done a lot of being excited about new ideas and agreeing to them this year, and while I’m a little worn out right now, it’s worked out pretty well! I just found out this weekend that I was accepted to present at the National Sex Ed Conference in 2019. I’ll be part of a symposium for 2018 authors of the American Journal of Sexuality Education and also having a round table about the YPAR project. I’m looking forward to presenting on the sexual difficulties work and to discussing what young people in Minnesota think needs to change about sex ed. I haven’t gone to this conference before, so it will also be fun seeing what it’s all about and meeting new people!
