Answering questions at Boston College O’Neill Library
Maybe time to get outside and enjoy some fresh air. Tomorrow you could even play in the snow; that should cheer you up. After that, maybe get some recommendations from friends for a new game.
I appreciate your encouragement!
Good heavens, I’m only 40 years old, let’s not rush these things!
I’m all for embracing life. But also know that sometimes saying no to give yourself time to rest is good too.
Savor it. Take time to enjoy the moments and not just think about the future.
Visit as many museums as you can- almost all of them are free! Also, take strolls around Kew Gardens and have picnics on Primrose Hill. And please say hi to the London Wall for me. Or say “Salve”–I hear the London Wall still speaks Latin…
I don’t do much in the way of RPGs, but glancing at synopses of their characters, I’d probably go with Misha…
There are so many wonderful places to see in Boston! The MFA and the Isabella Steward Gardner are great for museums, the Freedom trail will give you a good historical walk, and the Common and Esplanade are beautiful. My library friends have recommended restaurants like Barcelona, Brighton Bodega, Hokkaido Ramen Santouka, Blue Ribbon BBQ, and Asmara.
Ask open-ended questions and listen!
“I don’t have a tv either.” The human I know who used this has been with their human since 1977.
I have heard my library friends mention a few they admire: Jamie Vardy, T. J. Oshie, and Felix Batista.
I bet you do have untapped potential! Yay for wanting to develop more productive habits and better focus. Why not set up a wellness coaching session with the Center for Student Wellness (bit.ly/BC-wellness-coach)?
84 Charing Cross Road by Helene Hanff. There is no action in this book, at all, although history passes by in the background. Just friendship and discussion of books and life in a charming epistolary novel.
I had my esteemed BC Libraries colleagues answer this for me, as my diet consists entirely of post-it notes. Here are their gustatory responses.
If only I had the powers of cupid! Hm, then again, I’m kind of glad I don’t; that’s a lot of responsibility, finding matches between people I hardly know. I’m sorry to disappoint. I recommend looking for friends first and foremost, and being your authentic self with them and everyone. Something will arise, have patience.
Why not contact the BC Alumni Association (alumni.comments@bc.edu or 617-552-4700/ 800-669-8430) and ask them what the best way to do this would be?
Most of campus is done in a style called “collegiate Gothic”, but O’Neill was designed by The Architects’ Collaborative, which tended toward a more modernist style. They also did the John F. Kennedy federal building next to City Hall in Boston, and you can kinda see a resemblance. Not everyone likes big slabs of concrete, but I think they’re great. https://answers.bc.edu/faq/170899
I hear ya. Seemingly every major has at least one course that feels a bit crushing. Is this the one for CS… ? I strongly recommend checking in with your professor and also taking advantage of peer tutoring at the Connors Family Learning Center bit.ly/BC-connors. Best wishes for success!

Well, hello there! ❤️
It maybe more difficult, but it can certainly work. A Pew Research Center study (bit.ly/PewInterfaith) showed that 39% of couples married in 2010 were in interfaith relationships (and there was an even higher percentage of non-married couples in an interfaith relationship.)
