Hello. I’m a student at BU.

Hello. I’m a student at BU. This summer, before I went to Middlebury College for a 7 week Portuguese program, I stayed near BC for a month. I ❤️ the environment here as there are so many greens and ❤️ running around the reservoir. BC is a kind place that calms me down, which is an especially important thing to me when I am experiencing emotional fluctuation. For example, now I’m overloading (5 classes instead of 4) at BU, a couple are intensive classes and I am studying Stats at college. I know everything will figure out just need some time to adjust ?. Coming here is emotional as it reminds me the days I went through many things and managed to be more relaxed and passionate. I also know that we are never alone and that emotional and sleep fluctuations are normal. And resilience and concentration helps us through the obstacles!!! Just want to jut down the thoughts at head, and tell that I rly appreciate the environment here! My thought is a bit long, thanks for reading!!!! Can’t wait to see your response! Have a great day! Always a pleasure, E.

It can be peaceful and relaxing on the BC campus, and we love visitors. I hope you can find places at BU that calm you as well. If you are struggling, know that there are services available at BU you can contact (like SHS: bu.edu/SHS) for help!

How do I talk to her?

What is love? I really love a white fox, could that be called as love? He always tempts me to carress his white and hairy tail and licks me after I do that. Is this love? Wishes, White Fox Lover.

Like you would talk to anyone else – except it is difficult, isn’t it, when the outcome matters to you so much!

Play different games? No, but seriously, if the tears and anger are getting to you, consider opting out. Nothing says you have to play all the way to the final boss. At least take some lengthy breaks – a week or more. Life itself is hard enough!

I have been asked this several times, and the best answer I have is that there is surprisingly little data on this. There are some surveys, but the sample sizes are small enough to make the conclusions meaningless. Wherever you are on the political spectrum, you will be able to find those who share your convictions, as well as those who oppose them here.

I’m so glad you like the student experience at Boston College! I’m sorry to report I haven’t eaten sand cake because I only eat post-its. My mother, a seawall on the north shore, enjoys an occasional sand snack, but I’m guessing a sand-cake is something else.

As a wall, I don’t eat or drink, but my helper recommends The Chocolate Bar in Stokes S. I think they have switched to Starbucks from Peets, so that might be a negative, but she tells me the sweet treats there make the coffee taste better!

I’m not Yelp, but at least one of my helpers really likes the burritos at El Pelon, all the veg dishes at Ethiopian Cafe in JP, and the empanadas at Tara Pizza in Waltham. If you want elegant eats, (date night?) Elephant Walk (Cambodian) in the South End. It all depends on what you’re looking for; there’s such a variety around Boston!
