SydneyWriterHi all, I'm Sydney! I'm 18 years old and heading into my first year of university in Oregon, USA. As of right now, the plan is to study International Affairs and History, before heading off to law school. In my free time, I like to read and I'm currently trying to teach myself Spanish and German. I've been a part of TWE for almost a year now, and I hope to stay a part of it for a long time! I hope you all enjoy my articles as well as the amazing pieces my fellow teammates put out!

My Top 3 Articles
1) "Dealing with Depression and Joining TWE" by Cody- I really liked this article because I relate strongly to Cody. We have had very similar experiences with depression, from forgetting medication to figuring out what helps us best. I hope that like Cody I can also make new friends within TWE.
2)"How the Pro-ED Community Affected me and my Self Esteem" by Alex- This is one of my favorite articles because I do not really know much about eating disorders. I have never had one myself or, to my knowledge, known anyone who has. But I am an overweight girl and societal pressures have made me wonder "would it help to eat less?". Reading through this article reinforced the idea that there are healthier ways to become confident with my body that don't involve reinforcing harmful behaviors.
3)"My Pride Experience" by Joshua- I liked this article because it gave me insight on what Pride is like in other countries. Pride in my town takes place in April because it is too hot to host it in June. Every year we get protestors and every year my friends and I watch as the community comes together to block out the hate. I find it really interesting to hear what other countries do for Pride first hand instead of hearing about them on the news.
