Suicide Net

In the Mental Health Year Article there was a story about the Golden Gate bridge which is located in San Francisco, California. In the article it stated that numerous people, 38 last year to be exact, jumped off the bridge and killed themselves. This has caused the bridge to be named one of the most famous suicide landmarks in America.

To prevent more suicides San Francisco has finally passed an idea to put a net on the bridge. With this net it will catch anyone who tries to kill themselves. Though the idea has been passed, they still need to fund the bridge's customization which will take possibly another year and more people to die.

The smart people of California should have thought of this problem, and even if they did think of it, they should've taken measures to make sure no one tries again. With suicide rates rising, many people should take into account how much it affects other people. Though im saddened that many peoples lives were taken, atleast they have finally thought of ideas to prevent this.

3. Big Five Personality Test:

For the Big Five Personality Test my highest scores were under Intellectual style and Intelligent style. Supposedly im really good at maintaing relatioships (which is a lie), and they say that i get frustrated by slow changes (which is true).

Personality Disorders

Dear Mom,

College life has been very bland. Many people here are so loud and hectic. When in class my classmates have been coming up to me just to chat. They say that i look so lonely and need to smile more. I easily shrug them off and walk away. They usually take it as a bad thing, but they shouldn't take it so personally. Art is the only class i actually enjoy. The only annoying thing is that my teacher has been complimenting me since day one. I really dont care about her words of praise. Once i get out of classes i head to my dorm, which is the place i spend the most of my day in. My dorm partner wants me to go out with her to parties. I chose not to, because i would rather spend the night drawing. Out of everyone else in this stupid college, she's quite alright. Except for her, I dont have any friends here, and most people think im dull. Some people are strange enough to want to get to know me. Its depressing how much they try. Other than that, everything else is the same since i last wrote. I'll write to you soon.

Sincerely Yours, Jean
