With housing and midterm seasons both in full swing at the same time, it may seem as if Boston College knows exactly how to send their students over the edge. Lucky for us, BC has provided some great places on campus for students to cry when it all gets to be too much. Here are some of the best places to shed a tear when you don't get a pick time, get kicked out of your 8-man, or fail a midterm:
The million dollar stairs
Hey, nobody can blame you, right? For all they know, you are crying over the 128 stairs that separate you and your class that starts in three minutes.
On the Bapst lawn
If you throw some sunglasses on and lay your head on your backpack you'll fit right in. But whatever you do, do not go inside.
The single bathrooms in Gasson
Privacy is almost impossible to come by at BC, which is probably why the lines for these luxurious single bathrooms can be several people deep.
The line at Eagles
If you're not already crying, the sight of the 20 minute line after a full morning of classes might just push you over the edge.
St. Mary's Chapel
Or St. Ignatius. Or St. Joe's. Boston College is, in fact, a Jesuit institution.
The Shower
If all else fails, the shower is always a great place to cry. Unless you live on Kostka 3, where the water may or may not turn ice cold each time somebody flushes the toilet. In which case, you might be better off just crying in the lounge -- or maybe not.
Boston College will always be one of my favorite places, and I am beyond blessed to be able to attend such an incredible school. It doesn't matter if you're in the best place in the world, sometimes you just need a good cry.
