I am so sorry to hear you hate your major. “Success” can mean a lot of things, but there is a lot of space between not going to class at all and getting 100% on everything. If you have talked to advising and made sure there wasn’t time to upgrade a minor to a major or go all in on spring semester to get enough classes to pivot majors…I highly recommend talking to someone in Counseling to unpack where you are and make a plan for what’s next. bit.ly/BC-counseling

Was just reading someone describe turtles as shy rocks that can swim, so I’m going to say turtles today. https://bit.ly/4eS9urd

I have alerted our colleagues, thank you!

Thanks! I’ll notify the folks who make not-working computers work.

As a longtime resident of Boston College, I am afraid I am too biased to answer this the way you want me to. 

de nada

I’m not going to give advice on a candidate, but one of my helpers has created a guide page for voting: bit.ly/bcl-voting-info. See also the elections tab on that guide for misinformation fact-checking, which is very important in this election. Misinformation runs rampant on social media! A rumour gets halfway around the world before truth even gets its boots on.

Everyone is to the right people.

Practice makes perfect! I believe the 10,000 hour rule would apply here. Outliers by Malcolm Gladwell has some good ideas on this.

Would you fight with a three year old?  This person is acting like a toddler.  Think of yourself as a preschool teacher, and ignore this behavior.

There is a lost and found at the desk directly across from me called User Services.

You tell me! We Don’t Trust You, and We Still Don’t Trust You, and then the tour is We Trust You. Is it a change of heart or a change of “you?” Seeing as the tour raised money for his organization Single Moms Are Superheroes, named after his mother (RIP), it sounds like he trusts moms.

IDK, but maybe these two do? bit.ly/snl-what-is-that

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I don’t think there can be an objective answer to this. My own opinion varies week to week. 

I’d like to think so. For his sake at least!

Love is a reciprocal verb as much as a feeling. If people share a love that manifests as trusting, respecting, being vulnerable, and experiencing intimacy and joy together, then yes.

No, that’s not how works of literature are arranged here. But you can do an advanced search to find what you’re looking for. On line one, in subject: fiction. On line two, in subject: mystery. Or if you have a favorite author, just search by the author’s name. We don’t have a huge selection of mysteries. I recommend getting a BPL e-card (bit.ly/BPL-ecard), downloading the Libby app, and signing up with your BPL account, to read ebooks or listen to audiobooks.

Not being human, I’m already at a loss to know what it would be like being one, let alone being one who’s trying out life as a different species of mammal. I’m intrigued. I like your drawing.

We’re very pro-Muppet around here. His management style is also seriously underrated and should get more attention.
