two dudes commited suicides @ UCSD this month. One guy dropped himself from the Gilman Parking Structure (a 5, 6 story parking structure). Another person fell off the cliffs of La Jolla, a 50-70 foot drop, but did not die immediately. He was found the next morning, but died a week later due to his injuries.

Man, both had family, and those two just really phokked up their families 🙁. the cliff guy had a sister. I have a sibling, and i don't even want to think about what's it like.....phok!!!!!! :|

Is that really Jacko's house?
 
it's a surreal experience, my freshmen year in college some guy across the hall from us commited suicide, but he jumped off a 4 story parking garage. the guy was so happy all the time, was drunk alot also.

well a week before it happened i am walking into my room and i see a noose tied into his doorknob. i was like weird, and walked into my room. 5 min later he knocks on my door and asked if i did it. i said no, and that's kinda a sick joke (whoever did this to him) he laughs and says prolly just a prank. fast forward 1 week, i am coming in after an early class 9am and he is doing a bunch of laundry i said HI, he smiles and says Howdy. i go about my day. 4pm rolls around he is ontop of the parking garage, the campus police try to stop him. they talk to him for like 15 min and he jumps. apparently he had a 0.0gpa and could not face his parents :-( man he should of talked to anybody and they would of told him a college degree is not the end all solution to life, and if he did not get it it was the end of the world. and grades are not the measure of a man. but well such is life. it was a very weird month after that. police all over the hall asking a bunch of questions.

cliffs:

1. same situation few years back
2. guy across the hall jumped off 4 story parking garage
3. grades where the issue
4. wish he would of asked somebody for help
5. suck at story telling today so better to read cliffs than my post.

edit:::

small world my friend calls me at 4:30pm that day saying she saw him jump and land, and is crying hysterically. she added to the weirdness.
 
Back when I was an RA it happened the night I was on duty. It was unfortunate because it was either right before or right after he was to be commissioned (he was NROTC, I was AFROTC.) Not a clue in the world that he was going to do it.

Edit: What's was really sad was that it wasn't a closet really so much as a wardrobe. He could have stood back up at any point once he realized what he was doing. Not sure if that's the same case in the OPs story.
