Brain Activities
In class a group of us did some activities. We did Wheel of Fortune, Sudok, Trivia, and a rubic cube. These activities focus on how we problem solve and how our minds perfrom under various tasks. In all honestly all of the activities we did were hard for me. I was not good at any of them. I personality think it is because I don't have enough paitence to sit there and try to figure out the puzzles of each activity. The hardest one for me was sudok. I don't really understand how to play and trying to learn and figure out the puzzles and numbers was very frusterating to me.
After a Suicide quote
"I've learned to accept the fact that there is not any one reason for suicide".(Kuklin 22)
I want to believe that some people who has comitted sucided had a reason, whether they left it in a note or something where people would know why. I know that kind of situation does not always happen, although it sometimes does. I believe people committe sucide to get away from their problems. The people that do that think things are never going to get better, but in the end they will. Sometimes it's the heat of the moment kind of situation. People who comitte sucide probably put grief on their families. Families probably think that it is their fault, that why didnt they know something was going on, and why couldn't they help or be there for their loved one. In the end families just have to accept the fact that their loved one is gone no matter how hard it is and remeber the good times they had with that person. I do know someone who has comittee sucide and I know how hard it is for his family to deal with everything and trying to get back into the routine of things. It's hard for parents to tell younger siblings about what happened. In the end you probably never really know why a person comitte sucides.

The pictures on my glogster represent psychology. Most of my pictures are of brains. Pschology has a lot to deal with the brain. The way an individual acts and things like that. The one picture with all the words inside the brain shows basically everthing that has to do with you, with learning and developing. I also put another picture of the brain that shows the different parts and what each part does. The other picture with the wheels almost shows that the brain is always moving. The other picture i put up is of puzzles and a flower in someones brain. I put it up because there is so many things that go into peoples brain, whether you have to memorize something or just seeing simple things.

After A Suicide, young people speak up.
The title of my book is After a suicide-young people speak up
The thing I would like to get out of the book is knowing when to speak up when you see or know someone who is depressed. I would like to know how to tell when people are depressed or are going through problems. I also want to read the reactions of the family members who had to go through losing a loved one due to sucicide. I can make some what of a connection with this book because I know someone who has commited suicide, and no one would have ever thought something like that would have happened. I also hear about people being depressed or stressed and I would just want to know how to help.
