I'm an emotional WRECK

A tragedy happened at my high school on Tuesday and one of the kids died. It's made me really sad since then. I don't know why really. I didn't even know either of the kids that were involved but it just hits close to home I guess. I think that since being in college I've become more emotional as a whole because even the smallest thing like too much homework can have me lying in bed crying all day. I hate it sometimes. It can really slow me down but I know I'll feel better eventually. I'm just really sad.....
