Katrina You Are not Superwoman

I have a bad tendency to wander outside at night, alone, in not so safe of places. My friends are convinced I am going to get mugged or raped one day. To make sure this doesn't happen, my dad bought me some pepper spray, specifically for use when running.

But I've found that it is a bit counterproductive.

The other night I decided to go jogging for the first time in like, eons. It was night time and I didn't know where I would decide to run around campus, so I brought my handy pepper spray. And I realized, when I wear my jogging pepper spray...

I am invincible.

At least that's what I feel like and so I go down areas I would not usually travel through if I was not wearing pepper spray.

Run away from civilization? That's fine. I have pepper spray.

Veer off down this dark alley? No problem. I have pepper spray.

I realize this is a problem. The pepper spray could even be used against me under certain circumstances.

But that won't happen. Because I have pepper spray.
