00:00It took me a really long time to understand what actually had happened to me. I physically
00:06couldn't move my body at times. I returned back home to my parents' house and they had noticed a
00:14change in me and didn't seem like the old me, the old happy high school smiley Celine. It was then
00:21that I finally verbalized to them that the reason being is because I was in fact. Because I didn't
00:28take it. There was a lot of doubt happening, but there was a lot of victim blaming and shaming.
00:35They also mentioned the steps that I could take to potentially press charges against him. However,
00:41I was very encouraged not to because this individual had just served our country. I was
00:48left without any type of support. When I realized I was in fact, that came much later. I started
00:58identifying and recognizing that when you can't consent to something. And so really the leading
01:06moment that I was like, okay, this wasn't my decision. How do I help others? But that also
01:12came to be after I broke my silence against the University of Utah. They also mentioned the steps
01:18that I could take to potentially press charges against him. However, I was very encouraged not to
01:25because this individual had just served our country.
01:28So
