A kid that went to my elementary school (now in grade 12) accidentally killed his on monday. He was revving the engine in his car when his dad was behind and not knowing he was in reverse pushed the gas down. Feel super bad for this kid, schools been kinda different for the last two days. Anything like this ever happen at your school? ~vibes~

I don't think I could ever mentally recover from doing something like that.

Damn that is terrible. I could not imagine living with that. A girl I knew got shot after school hours. She wasn't the target but was in the way so she got hit 8 times in the abdomen at 10 foot distance, because some dumb ass was willing to kill someone over $40. I really don't understand how people can be more selfish. She was in two of my classes and both my teachers were really broken up by that. So were the classmates. It really opens your eyes to how fast life can be taken.

I also witnessed a guy shoot him self in the head when I was on a photography shoot for my photography class. It was the most fucked thing. Police showed up the whole 9 yards. Then they took me to counseling for a few weeks to make sure I was doing ok after seeing the incident.

My pottery teacher committed suicide last year from having really bad depression. The school hasn't been the same since. Feels like somethings missing.

damn that's horrible but why would you just sit there and rev your car? and on top of that be in reverse without knowing? its crazy how one little mistake can change your life forever. A very good friend of mine was at the beach over summer and broke his neck diving into the ocean, that was 3 months ago and he's still in the hospital and will probably never walk again. i couldn't believe it when i heard what happened. it still seems unreal, i've had dreams about him and hes absolutely fine in the dreams just to wake up and realize it was fake. it's so sad to think he'll never be able to stand up again it. it really has made me appreciate life and the people around me a lot more. this put me in a depressing mood fuckk

Worst EMS call I ever went on when I worked 911 was a little girl who had been pinned between a car and a building when the driver thought it was in reverse but it was in drive. PD had every intersection between the accident and the hospital blocked off for us. She didn't make it :/ Felt horrible for that driver.
