Today

I find this whole situation strange. When I wake up, I realize that I am not in my dorm and I think I have all the time in the world. This fuels my procrastination. When I'm at home, I am not motivated to do work and when I am at school I find it easier to say focused. I love my family but they can be distracting at some points. My twin sister usually asks me to check her essays Art History or help her take pictures of her art projects. Sometimes, I'll be studying or trying to do homework and my Dad will turn on the news or watch a movie at full volume, and then I can't focus. I have also started to notice that I have easily irritable. I get annoyed or small things like when my mom touches my hair or when I have to get groceries from the supermarket. When I watch Netflix,  I think "oh my gosh they are not social distancing" but then I realize that there was a time in which this pandemic didn't exist.

Racing Towards Cleaner Waters

Introduction

The Brightline is a railway system that takes its passengers to and from metropolitan areas of Florida such as West Palm Beach, Ft.Lauderdale, and Miami. The Brightline is the nation's deadliest railway, with more than one death per month. This is more than all of the 821 railways in the US. Many of these deaths are a result of suicide or reckless behavior (ie. trying to beat the train or playing drinking games too close to the tracks, etc.). Railway suicide does not only impact the families of the deceased but the passengers and staff on the train and the communities around the area of the incident. Brightline as a company has an inadequate way of addressing suicide prevention and preventing reckless behavior. Despite the clear need for effective change, Brightline has not yet found an efficient way to address this issue. Brightline has partnered with Operation Lifesaver non-profit focused on creating railway safety education. Operation Lifesaver has an abundance of resou...
