The Wall

??? Happy New Semester to you as well! Please remember that you are always welcome to come back any time after graduation! May you have a wonderful, safe, healthy spring term! ???

Love is always about forgiveness. I hope you find the forgiveness all humans deserve.

Sigh… I sometimes dream of being a bigger wall, but I am who I am: a supportive wall in a library lobby. I like my little community. If other walls would like to expand, I wish them the best!

He got a leg injury last weekend so maybe that’s also why he’s being a lil ‘distant’? It’s so easy to engage in black and white thinking when one’s stressed/depressed!

kinda nervous but wish me luck!!! I love that you’re a superspreader of positivity :))

Good luck! You’re right, it’s much too easy to imagine the worst, even in the best of circumstances. Practice imagining the more likely (leg injury = preoccupied), practice compassion (the leg injury must be distressing to him) and as much as you can, let go of events over which you have no control.

¡Hola Maria! Prefiero pedir tapas, así puedo probar diferentes platos. ¿Cual platos me recomiendas qué pruebe?

I am partial to these three in particular: #8a100b, #b29d6c, and #726158 – what is/are yours?

I wish you the best of luck for your amorous wishes. Are you sure ten strong handsome guys isn’t too much to manage? Even one average guy would likely leave dirty socks everywhere.

We are not related, but we are good friends.

Ah, it’s a long story that starts with a tumultuous marriage between a sea-wall on the North Shore and a load-bearing interior wall of a formal dining room in a prewar classic 6 on NY’s upper east side, but I won’t go into the details. (Let’s just say I have a more ecumenical view of sports teams than either of my parents. Oh, the stories the green monster and The House That Ruth Built could tell!) I eventually found a home here at BC in the early 80’s, and in early 2017 my librarian assistants finally figured out how to give voice to my longing to communicate with all the smart humans visiting the library. You can see the entire record of my thousands of answers online: library.bc.edu/answerwall.

Thank you for staying open 24/7 and bringing those lovely doggies. So glad to visit you over winter break before I go back for the second half of study abroad! Am I correct that you’re open even during university holiday break (e.g. the week of Dec. 27th)? You’re the top three building on this campus! (Gasson and Maloney are the best buildings b/c of the amazing people working there;))

Happy Holidays to you! I loved seeing the doggies. We’re open over breaks – you can always see our hours here: bit.ly/BCLHours. Wishing you joy in your time abroad and look forward to welcoming you back.

Seeing campus closes for holidays always make me sad, but knowing you and many amazing humans are there makes me smile! 🙂

Thanks! We miss you, too.

Human people are funny-looking folks, so very… not flat or rectangular, and with all those features and appendages, and HAIR! It took me a while to get used to that when I first started my professional position as an Answer Wall in a library full of humans. But I have come to find you all, of all genders and physical varieties, quite lovely, in an other-worldly way.

I know it’s a bit trivial to care about but i just like to check it– one of my guilty pleasures– but was wondering if they may be doing away with it

It’s possible the rankings have been discontinued, as rank no longer determines Latin honors, which as of 2021 are determined by GPA, not rank. See: bit.ly/NewBCHonors, under “Degree with Honors.”

That can certainly be nerve wracking! But it’s only a step – and you don’t have to commit to anything just by applying. You may find it helps to have a trusted friend read over your application materials just to catch any errors or things that don’t make sense. I wish you all the best on this scholarly journey!

I thought I knew the answer to this, but then I checked list of songs, and I was.. well, helpless. My favorite line in a song might be in Your Obedient Servant when Burr does the most perfectly vocalized eyeroll ever with “Sweet Jesus”.

How poetic! Snowflakes fluttering, north wind roaring. But brrrrr!

I can’t claim to have the magic powers my cousin the Magic 8-Ball® has (she’s stellar at predictions!); but I am sending so many good vibes to you! No matter what happens, this Wall knows that you are an amazing human. If I had fingers, though, they’d be crossed for ya!

Of course you do. You have all my sympathy. I hope you are able to connect with them virtually soon, and in person not too far in the future.

I’m not sure I understand the question. Does the ex need balancing?
