It was cathartic, to be completely honest.

Every ounce of my being was awoken at once, and I felt like I came back to reality.

For the first time since that had happened to me, I was like, somebody sees me, somebody hears me, somebody understands that I didn't want that, and I'm not this person who

was asking for it or this person who should drop the case and who should just leave it alone and be small and be quiet.

I'm allowed to take up space and share that what happened to me is not okay.

She advocated for me because she believed me.

It was just extremely emotional.

And then I called my parents.

I couldn't even wait until I got home and I was like, you guys have to see this.

So I shared the email and I sent it to everybody in my circle.

Again, my friends and my roommate.

I was like, I could not have done this without you guys and all of your support.

It felt almost as good as it did when he got arrested.

That same overwhelming emotion.

We got the results and it was just starting to turn into like spring and it was the last couple weeks of my freshman year.

I got through it.

My lawyer called me.

She said, I'm really not happy with the way that the school handled everything.

I did find out somebody did go ahead before me actually and report him too.
