Hello bloggers and netsurfers! Just wanted to bring to light World AIDS Day to those who don’t know. I’m really for awareness about this issue as I think its a growing problem that needs to be addressed. Yes, I have been influenced by those sex ed classes. Also, that and as I am someone who wants to one day do something productive and raise money for Africa projects, AIDS is really high on my list to be knowledgable about.
So yes, to those who have no idea what AIDS/HIV here are some sites that you can familiarize yourself with:

So yea, if today, you’ve seen an unusual large number of people who have red ribbons pinned on their shirt, its because December 1 is World AIDS Day.
Here a good gallery of what happened around the world on this day:
