I was *very* careful ..when I was sober.
Unfortunately, alcohol always transformed me into crazy nymphomanic
b****, reckless. No, was still very careful about 'pregnancy aspects',
but not HIV. That's why I stopped drinkin'.
All ppl should remember - it's much easier to get infected than pregnant!
So please stop using silly methods of contraception with new partners..
At least use good condom! And use it right

Today I had my second ever HIV test - surprisingly..'negative' again.
First one was about 7 years ago. Too bad interval was so long
cause i was crying all day yesterday and today i was going to DIE from fear.
Reckless again. I'm going to have another test next year.. just because.
To be sure. To be safe..
I really want to be careful, and i am actually,
last 3-4 years - a *very* good gal.
And please guys, be careful - I've met real ppl
with HIV, they were younger than me! Such a tragedy.. And even
if it was "their fault" - gosh, they were just kids! it's ignorance again..
and darned hypocritical society, obsessed with ostentatious morality &
banning free condoms& lectures for kids, while kids are having unsafe sex
&using drugs all the way.

Well HIV/AIDS is a very dangerous diseases that one need to be very careful ti does not go only to having faith full sex partner there are many other things to put in to consideration as far as AIDS is concern.

Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) is a lentivirus (a member of the retrovirus family) that can lead to "Acquired Immuno Deficiency Syndrome" (AIDS). Guys, this is the word we always fear about it. It is a condition in humans in which the immune system begins to fail, leading to life-threatening opportunistic infections. Previously this virus known by the names which include human T-lymphotropic virus-III (HTLV-III), lymphadenopathy-associated virus (LAV), and AIDS-associated retrovirus (ARV).Just assume that, you are in a movie theatre and you felt something poking from seat. When you got up to see what it was, you found a needle sticking out of the seat with a note attached saying"You have just been infected by HIV".The Disease Control Center (in Paris ) reports many similar events in many other cities recently. All tested needles were HIV Positive.The Center also reports that needles have been found in cash dispensers at public banking machines. We ask everyone to use extreme caution when faced with this kind of situation. All public chairs / seats should be inspected with vigilance and caution before use.Here is one question for you. Is it helpful to pass this message along to all members of your family and your friends of the potential danger.This is the case at Delhi. One doctor has narrated a somewhat similar instance that happened to one of his patients at the Priya Cinema in Delhi. A young girl, engaged and about to be married in a couple of months, was pricked while the movie was going on. The tag with the needle had the message."Welcome to the World of HIV family".Though the doctors told her family that it takes about 6 months before the virus grows strong enough to start damaging the system and a healthy victim could survive about 5-6 years,the girl died in 4 months, perhaps more because of the "Shock thought".That is why we all have to be careful at public places. At last all we are matured personalities to know what is good and bad. So, just think over it and if possible save a someone's life. ...

A friend forwarded this important message in my mailbox today and I feel it is a must read for all:

A few weeks ago, in a cinema, a person felt something poking from her seat. When she got up to see what it was, she found a needle sticking out of the seat with a note attached saying "You have just been infected by HIV (AIDS)".

The Disease Control Center (in Paris ) reports many similar events in many other cities recently. All tested needles were HIV Positive. The Center also reports that needles have been found in cash dispensers (ATM) at public banking machines. We ask everyone to use extreme caution when faced with this kind of situation. All public chairs/seats should be inspected with vigilance and caution before use. A careful visual inspection should be enough. In addition, they ask that each of you pass this message along to all members of your family and your friends of the potential danger.

Recently, one doctor has narrated a somewhat similar instance that happened to one of his patients at the Praia Cinema in Delhi . A young girl engaged and about to be married in a couple of months, was pricked while the movie was going on. The tag with the needle had the message: "Welcome to the World of HIV family". Though the doctors told her family that it takes about 6 months before the virus grows strong enough to start damaging the system and a healthy victim could survive about 5-6 years, the girl died in 4 months, perhaps more because of the "Shock thought". We all have to be careful at public places, rest God help! Just think about saving a life by forwarding this message. Please, take a few seconds of your time to pass along.

Remember ... to pass this on to everyone you know... Probably your mail can help save a life.
