Don’t like school closing for winter break

Don't like school closing for winter break, don't want to end up in the hospital, don't want to stay w/ friends (feel weird bothering their family), don't want to go home either! What are better options?

I’m sorry you’re left with so few viable options. Perhaps travel? Pick a few locations you’d like to see & see what you can find for last-minute deals, air-bnb’s, or ridesharing (ridesharing.com). I hope you find a solution that suits you.

I don’t (I have coffee every night – tonight’s the last night) , but Hillside does – in fact, if I recall correctly, they can even prepare you a steamer (steamed milk) with a shot of flavor. I hear that’s delicious!

How do I handle a 17-hour flight after drinking 7 cups of coffee???

1. In the airport, buy a decent set of corded earbuds (if you don’t already have some) because you’re going to watch a lot of movies. 2. Wait to board until the last minute, and use the restroom right before you board. 3. On the plane, ask to switch with someone near the restrooms. 4. Tell a flight attendant that you’ve had way too much coffee & you’re not sure what effects that will have on you. 5. Settle in with some really engrossing films until the caffeine wears off. 6. Sleep.

Being consigned to a stationary life, I’m even impressed by walking, so I’d be a poor judge. They’re all amazing!

Yes, they’re great! So are all the others. Like I said, I’m impressed by any human movement at all, even stumbling (which owing to my proximity to stairs, I see regularly; be careful!).

I just got an amazing job…

I just got an amazing job but my brother who graduated two years ago still hasn't found one and he's super down about it. how can I tell him that I got my job w/out making him sad!

It’s really nice that you are sensitive to your brother’s employment struggles. I suggest that you tone down your excitement (just a little) when you tell him, and follow his lead whether he would like to discuss his own job search or would just like to celebrate yours without drawing comparisons. Don’t worry too much, though — he’s your brother and will be happy for you.

What are your thoughts on government providing public options to services in US?

What are your thoughts on government providing public options to services in US?

Not entirely sure I know what you mean. Public options, as in healthcare? Services as in armed services? Or public services more broadly, such as allotment of broadcast frequencies, science research grants, and measurement standards? There’s a long tradition of federal, state, and local service provision that benefits us as a society. Being a supportive Wall, I certainly support being supportive. Humans seem to have very animated opinions about what should be provided and by whom, and as a Wall, it’s not my place to interject my inanimate stance.

Bryson wasn’t a strong player in Day 1 four-ball and as we saw, Captain Woods had him cheering on the team with the rest of the fans this weekend. Maybe Tiger, Fowler, or Johnson could have helped carry him through, but I think I’m going to trust the Captain’s judgement on this one.

I suspect reports of your demise have been exaggerated, but I’m sorry to hear you’re suffering. I have faith that you’ll survive and thrive, even if not as a statistician. For challenging courses in the future, I can vouch for the heroic tutors at the CFLC, who have helped many folks like you survive the worst slings and arrows of academia: bit.ly/BC-connors
