Replying to Crazy/scary weekend

im a freshman in college, and i had to move out of my room after first semester (for my job, not b/c i dont get along with my roomates- in fact im good friends with one and ski a lot with both of them!). anyways, they got a new roomate who seemed like a good kid. always was nice, seemed happy about life, etc...

well last weekend he went missing and the cops were around campus asking people if they have seen him and stuff. i later found out that he rented a hotel in town and tried to commit suicide. if he hadnt told his gf what he was doing, he would have died. there were lethal amounts of something in his body (they wont tell us what). the scary part is he didnt tell his gf where he was, only what he was doing.  she called security, they called the cops and they all started calling to every hotel around. luckily they found him. he was released from the hospital and moved out. donno if he will come back or not.

its scary as shit because i knew him, had lunch with him the day before, and honestly i never thought that this was something that would happen so close to me. its really made me start thinking about a ton of stuff recently... about life in general and how different people have such different experiances.

anyways, take it as you will, but no matter what realize that if somebody says they will kill themselves, it doesnt mean that they are not going to do it (a lot of people think this, but its really not true all the time). oh yea, and dont kill yo' self!
