Either you’ll just know (for some people and relationships it works that way), or you’ll make a choice to be with them until you can no longer picture your life without them. Love is a choice.
How do you confirm that you’ve found the one?
What are your thoughts on Ice Age baby?
Ice Age baby is a character in an enjoyable animated film. In order to attract attention to themselves, some social media accounts decided to express violent remarks about the character, and as these things go, the tweets captured some attention for a while. That’s the full extent of my thoughts.
Will BC cancel classes because of coronavirus?
It’s too early to say. I’m sure you can trust BC to make decisions informed by the most current advisories by the CDC & for the health of the whole community. For updates, monitor the BC Coronavirus page: bit.ly/bc-corona.
HELP.
You can do this life direction thing! It doesn’t always happen right after college, and that’s not necessarily bad. And good news: the Career Center (bit.ly/BC-career) offers free career coaching appointments to graduates of degree-granting programs who graduated within the past five class years. Talking with them is a great first step.
how do you get over someone? :(
While not super helpful in the short term, time will do the trick. For now try exploring the neighborhoods of Brighton, Newton, and Brookline by foot with Neko Case, Florence + the Machine, and Gloria Gaynor on repeat. Sending hugs.
Why the fuck does this college bother employing someone to put useless leaflets on your desk but not with basic fucking sexual health?
Your frustration is evident and shared by others (although always not with such strong language). BC has determined that some aspects of sexual health conflict with its Jesuit Catholic mission (see Health Services policy at: bit.ly/UHSservices). Over-the-counter products are available in nearby stores, and there are physicians and clinics in the area that can provide reproductive health counseling and services.
Which religious order do you think St. Theresa of Avila saw in her vision from God…
One of my helpers is working on this and says a) great question and b) it might be a bit. Watch this space for a follow-up.
Could you give me a reference to the specific vision you have in mind? Poitrey’s Vocabulario de Santa Teresa lists at least thirty references to orders in her work and I’d like to make sure I’m responding to the one you have in mind. In the meantime, we have a pretty extensive book collection on her life and works: http://bit.ly/bc-sta
“His Dark Materials” and “The KingKiller Chronicles” are my Favorite books! What should I read next?
Goodreads is a useful place to look for similar books; try some of these suggestions: bit.ly/Similar2Pullman and bit.ly/similar2kingkiller.
WHY
Why not?
what is your favorite snack?
1) Post-its 2) Post-its. But that’s just me. Humans might prefer snacks with a little less wood-based cellulose. Thanks for the tip! I’m sure humans who love snacks appreciate it!
I hear those are really good. Sorry, I don’t eat anything but Post-Its.
Are the post its purple for lent?
Providentially, I was recently gifted a variety of new colors. One of my assistants chose purple. They claim it was not intentional, but it seems clear to me that something guided their hand.
Is Bernie Sanders too radical to win the nomination + then the presidency?
Who can tell these days? There seem to be historic shifts in voter preference underway.
There are rats in O’Neill library.
My helpers and I have only seen mice, not rats – are you sure they’re rats? In any case, Facillities is aware of the problem and taking what measures they can.
No worries, they assure me they were not offended.
Is having a crush on your cousin considered incest?
If it’s only a crush, it would not be incest. Acting on that crush could be incest, but opinions on cousin-to-cousin relations vary by culture. In most jurisdictions it is not illegal for cousins to have sexual relations, although societal mores may not permit it.
Can you put more tissues in O’Neill?
I’ll make sure those in the library who control these things will hear your request.
I study so much & work so hard for my classes but still not getting the grade I want :(
It sounds like you should be proud of your persistence and hard work, not disappointed! One of my assistants notes that they saw a Twitter thread the other day of dozens of current practicing STEM PhD’s (many with jobs at prestigious universities), who shared how poorly they did at various stages of their education, some even flunking out. Persistence wins! You can do this!
Ice Age is debateably the best movie of the 2000’s.. do you agree?
Yes.
Best book you’ve ever read?
The wall has always been interested in self discovery and I have found this title invaluable over the years – An introduction to melamine, by Ashley Harris – bit.ly/bc-melamine. Caution: perhaps a little obscure and hard to acquire.
Who even is CY?
I doubt Cyrus the Great was ever addressed as “Cy,” so you probably don’t mean him. Likewise, I’d guess Cyrus Vance, Jr., the DA of NY County, is probably not “Cy” to all but his closest friends. As a matter of fact, no matter who Cy is, if you don’t know him, maybe he’s not “Cy” to you. Call him Cyrus to begin with, and if he invites you to call him Cy, then you can. Whoever he is.
I cut off all communications w/ a girl I got friend-zoned hard by …
The Wall is not sure what you mean by friend-zoning. Usually it means a guy wants a romantic relationship and the girl he’s interested in doesn’t. You can have any reaction you want to being rejected, but if you haven’t said out loud “I’m not really interested in being just friends with you”, how would she figure that out?
