 Joe Flood/ Project Safegaurd For two weeks Joe Flood came to talk to us about drugs and alcohol and what they do to your body and how they're bad for you. But the interesting thing about him was that he used to be an alcoholic and a drug addict, so he was really experienced in why not to do it. He taught us about our brain he used a medafore, it was that we had six lights on in our brain and when we start drinking or doing drugs a lot if we do a lot at one time the first light turns off and that's thinking, and then the second light turns off, and then the third, and so on. He said it was dangerous for the lights to go off. He asked me what I thought was the light that turned off and that's when it started getting dangerous, I said the second or third, but I was wrong, I should have said the first. He told us a story about how a girl was drunk, she was about 16-17, and she was drunk and she woke up in her bed with no clothes on, and she couldn't remember much, her friends told her she went to her house with a guy. So it can get really bad, because she was drunk her first light turned off, her thinking light, and normally she wouldn't do that kind of thing, but her thinking light was off and she thought it was a good idea, but it was more like the alcohol thought it was a good idea. He told us many more stories, we saw him for 4 classes and I learned a lot of stuff.

You did a great job explaining what Project Safeguard was like and also the things you learned from Joe Flood. Maybe next time you could focus a little more on punctuation, but your details were great!
