Peer Health Advocates decided to host a workshop about the drugs and alcohols. The workers, dressed in red polo shirts, set up the projector in the Benson Hall lobby along with many brochures about health tips such as pregnancy, safe sex, and alcohol consumption. I planned to ignore the workshop but one of the workers added that it is a FYS credit, so I stayed throughout the workshop. Since there were only ten students who showed up, so the workers decided to go with the different plan with the idea of playing games to make whole thing exciting for all of us. Ten of us were split into three different groups and for each question that comes up on the slide, we choose our representation to answer the question. Whoever gets the most right wins the prize. The questions were basically about the symptoms for alcohol poisoning, what to do when a friend is drunk, or how to resist a peer pressure.
The game was actually fun because of the competition and the intensity among the students I really know. The questions were pretty easy, but some of them were obscure and nobody would know the answer. But that’s what it makes the presentation more fun for all of us. At the end, my group didn’t win, but a second place winner. Yay. The prizes were creative, and we, second place winners, received a free shirt, free cup, free magnet, and limitless number of free condoms. I love when PHA gives out free condoms in every workshop. Excluding the freebies, the questions and workshop PHA workers presented were resourceful. I admit that there were several things I never heard of it before, which it would be an aid for a problem in the future. Overall, I enjoyed whole thing and I will continue to attend more workshops that PHA provide. And the next one I heard will be about condoms and sex items. It should be interesting, and of course I will laugh it all the way.
