Oh, I hope you can lose the guilt. I expect your family is so proud to have you at BC. It is just a brief moment in time; you have a lifetime of opportunities ahead to give back and pay it forward; to your family who has supported you, to your own kids if you have them, and to the larger world.
I found the best way to get motivated and keep up in my least favorite subjects was to find a study buddy and set a specific time to work together. You keep each other honest, and have someone to bat around ideas with.
Developing better habits is not easy, but you can do this! You can sign up for career coaching with the Connors Family Leanring Center (CFLC) to learn ways to manage your time and studying in a way that will let you SLEEP! bit.ly/BC-connors
Cassowaries usually end up on top of dangerous bird lists because they’re huge (150 pounds!) and fast. https://bit.ly/3MCeCE4 In North America I wouldn’t want to tangle with any kind of raptor (eagles included), but owls are most of the top ten. https://bit.ly/47tmmAb
Maybe try visiting a few of your favorite places, places where you have happy memories of BC/Boston. Take some photos and/or videos. Then you’ll have your own personal yearbook to look back at later.
Always fun to listen to new artists!
It is really hard and I know many of my human friends struggle with feeling depressed. You are not alone. You could talk with someone at University Counseling (bit.ly/BC-counseling), like another student recommended, or sign up for Wellness Coaching at bit.ly/BC-wellness-coach (building meaningful relationships is one of their target topics.)
Makes my little wall heart glad when you students are so supportive of each other. There is love, for sure.
I’m sorry that’s happening. Tell him your honest feelings, and let go of controlling what happens. And please don’t scribble out someone else’s question; that’s not kind.
No worries, and thanks for clarifying! ❤️
The limiting factor is that, while I answer the questions, I rely on my human friends to do the magical post-it printing. I live here, but they tend to go home. I try my best to have them post my answers the next day, or after a weekend. Sometimes we all need to do a bit of research or think on a question for longer, though.
I’m sorry life’s treating you badly right now. I hope you have someone to talk to about it. A reason, hmmm. Would it make you feel better if there were one? Perhaps instead of a reason for the bad stuff, look for the small good stuff. I find even little things can help me feel better when big things are bad.
