Survey questions

I came up with 8 survey questions, here are my questions and the results.



                            

   My purpose of doing this survey is to know does people's social status makes them pessimistic or positive. My hypothesis is that people who are not close to their family members, and who like cold color are more likely to become pessimistic. 
  Well as you can see, my hypothesis is not quite right. I asked ten people to do my survey, all of them are college students. There are seven people who are close to their family. And there are four people who like warm color, such as link and red. There are three people like to spend time with their friends and 2 people like to spend time alone. The other five people kinda like both. It indicates that most of the people who did the survey like social life. 
   However, there are 8 people have thought about death before. They mentioned that  they would think about death when they are unhappy or being lonely. And they were scared by death. There are six people who like to die for the natural causes like oldness and others want to die in various condition, such as accident and suicide. In addition, some people want to be buried with their family members and some people want to be cremated. 
   I was kind of surprised by the result of my survey. I thought that if people have a good social status or live in a good condition, they would not ever think about death. When people are depressed or unhappy, they would think about pessimistic things, such as death. 

  This survey reminds me of my first time thinking about death. I remembered when my grand father passed away, I attended his funeral. I couldn't sleep that night. I was only six years old, and that was the first time that I saw the dead people. I started to think where would people go after dearth. I remember I thought I was going to become a red flower one the road. This is just a funny story in my childhood :).
