Sometimes even our favorite foods don’t agree with us. Well that’s what my friends with stomachs tell me. It might be time to appreciate the pumpkin spice gnocchi from afar.

If you mean songs with lyrics that hold up on the page without the melodies, possibly Patti Smith, Bob Dylan (can’t argue with a Nobel for literature!), or Lou Reed, or just about any rap or hip hop artist for sheer virtuosity (Check out Doechii!) If you mean an imaginative or sensitively emotional style of expression that blends with the music, a lot of people are saying Taylor Swift. I’d go with a much older classic: Robert Burns.

Anything from manage the life of a fictional wealthy layabout (Jeeves, for Bertram Wooster in many P.G. Wodehouse novels) to manage the staff of a fictional great house (Mr. Carson in the British tv serial Downton Abbey). Household staff were so frequently the culprit of murder in mystery fiction that people were warned away from the cliche as early as the 1920s. (bit.ly/butler-did-it)

Dropping out of a program is always a big decision. But you’re already doing one of the best things when deciding something: looking into options and spending time with the decision. Some other job possibilities for neuro majors include teaching, nurse practioners, and researchers. You might also talk to someone in the program or one of your professors to learn more about options.

PLEASE don’t try this. Not really sure how you’re envisioning this working, as helium is only solid at a temperature around absolute zero. But in gaseous form, the answer is an amount of helium that would cause death by hypoxia a long time before any floating happened.

So many of them are good, it’s a tough call. Here’s one ranking that you might productively disagree with: bit.ly/metal-gear-ranked.

Being honest tactfully can be hard for some, but I’d say it’s worth it to foster this skill.

I suspect they just have bad manners. I’m sorry 🙁

Best bets are just to the right of the main stairs on floors 2, 4, and 5. There are also single stall restrooms on level 1 and 3.

He is not. Even one of my go-to sources The New Catholic Encyclopedia acknowledges that his level of commitment to Christianity is debatable. And a professor of one of my helpers once commented about him that kings and emperors don’t tend to get the name “Great” because they are humanitarians.

1. You each find a location with interesting things to look at without telling the other what it is, and video call, simultaneously giving each other tours. 2. If you’re up for travel, agree on a specific random destination and time, and meet each other there as if you’re spies for warring countries destined to fall in love; you must stay undercover and not be discovered by your spy masters. Disguises optional. 3. A recurring book date: on alternate nights, read each other chapters from a book as bedtime stories. 19th C. novels work well because the chapters are short. I recommend anything by Dumas, esp. the D’artagnan Romances.

Names, characters, business, events and incidents are the products of the creator’s imagination. Any resemblance to actual persons, living or dead, or actual events is purely coincidental. (If you want a fun history, check out bit.ly/work-of-fiction.)

Life has a lot of ups and downs, regardless of age. It sounds like your feeling down about the future, which can be really draining. I recommend seeking some extra support to navigate these existential feelings. BC Counseling Services (https://bit.ly/BCUCSOptions) is a great resource. I highly recommend checking them out.
