an evaporate back into the parking spot from whence it came, me and my brother could hit level fifty in Call of
Duty. Anyways, my point is that three to five business days is a pretty long period of time, especially when the countdown
starts on New Year's Eve, and New Year's Eve falls on a Thursday. While at this point actually testing positive for the chlamydia virus is much more
of a symbolic q tip up the dick hole than physical, and while understanding that I did not spread the virus to anyone,
there is still a feeling of anxiety pushing forward with regards to the wait for the test results. Now, why would I be
anxious? Is it because of the stigma that comes with actually contracting the clap? Is it the fact that I can't have
sex for a month, which isn't nearly as far of a stretch from the standard as it sounds? Is it
the fact I would tell my parents, and have to deal with awkward lectures that would
put the typical anti-alcohol lecture to shame? There really isn't a good enough reason for
me to be this anxious about the results of the test; normally I'm the type of person who can block anything out
if I try to.

What comes to mind as a
conclusion for this anxiousne
ss is the lack of a precedent set before me. None of my friends in either the 201 or
the 215 have ever had a scare of this magnitude- a scare
that's more than a hunch. Can't ask the family either- I'd probably end up on the front page of the Bayonne Times if
I started asking family members under the headline "Once-Promising Teenager
Contracts Chlamydiafrom Cum-Dumpster at Pennsylvania College." The only sources of
true knowledge I have are the Internet and Mr. Waktola at
Planned Parenthood. I guess the deeper lesson that I've
learned from this besides the obvious "make sure you wear
a bathing suit with mesh if you're swimming in nuclear acid" is that I, by being incredibly forward with my
issue, might be able to help a friend or family member who is unsure about testing. So, in conclusion, if you're scared
about something that could be sexually transmitted, come talk to me.
