I’m sorry, but I never divulge names or personal information, and when you do, I have my assistants black it out. That’s one of my few rules. Look above my dry-erase board at the sign.
Answering questions at Boston College O’Neill Library
Great question! I suggest you contact the Office of Student Involvement (bc.edu/osi) or the Campus Activities Board
(https://bc.campuslabs.com/engage/organization/cab) and ask if a rapper could be booked to come perform at BC.
My guess is stress. But, if you’re experiecing sadness every night, you deserve some support. BC Counseling Services (https://bit.ly/BCUCSOptions) is a great resource– start with telling them this question and go from there. I for one want you to be happy and thriving.
Just be yourself and have patience. If love is meant to work out, it will! As singer Doris Day said, “Que Sera Sera” (Whatever will be, will be).
Looks like other friends got to this first and said the same thing: being yourself is always a wonderful starting place.
I don’t really eat or play games, so I think maybe I’d go with bacon so I could have little snacks available for visitors. But I encourage you to embrace moderation. Endless amounts of either of those can be unhealthy, but a bit of each sounds pretty awesome.
If you’re a BC student you might start by reaching out to the Muslim Student Association. The Yusuf Mosque in Brighton might also be a good place to reach out to for advice. And because I’m a library Wall I can also recommend something to read. Maybe try this introduction to Islam for a little context and history: bit.ly/bcl-intro-islam
I don’t have the experience (or money) to gamble with you but go ahead! Just remember that you need to be at least 18 years old to gamble in the State of Massachusetts (bit.ly/mass-gamble-age).
If you’re looking for a book, I’d recommend Our Wives Under the Sea by Julia Armfield. It’s a visceral depiction of how sometimes it doesn’t matter how much you love someone, sometimes you’ll still lose them. If you want something to watch, I’d say The Haunting of Bly Manor on Netflix. It’s a ghost story, but it’s also a story about love and sacrifice.
âVanity of vanities,â says the Preacher, “All is vanity.” (Ecclesiastes 12:8) On that note, the voice in the Cake tune is from a 1950’s recording of Christian comedian Don Lonie. The tune itself is a remake of Belgian Latin band Chakachas’ “Stories.” In case you were wondering.
