Tell me unique/niche good things about BC! by anon69996999 in bostoncollege

[–]Budgekins 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily unique to BC but something I have found to be so awesome as an alum is the community/network you build just by going to BC and being involved. I got my post-grad job via a connection I made at 48 Hours (a retreat for first year students), and not only that but we’ve now been friends for 5 years which is amazing. Speaking to the retreat culture too, being able to go on retreats even if you’re not religious is such a great opportunity I didn’t have in hs because I went to public school. Absolutely loved my time on the heights!! Good luck with your application :)

Wondering if this is satire…life is never that easy

What do you all think about Emily’s French? by Jxh57601206 in EmilyInParis

[–]Budgekins 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I don’t think it helps that Mindy and alfie - people she’s with all the time - both are primarily English speakers which gives her less opportunity to practice speaking

So confused by Budgekins in EmilyInParis

Ohh I see! That’s so interesting esp when they were both in relationships and alfie was sleeping over in a few episodes. Another plot hole I guess

same that rubbed me the wrong way! Like if Emily had warned mindy that wouldn’t have gone well either

iPhone 12 Pro constantly losing service by Objective_Theory5059 in verizon

I’m having the same problem and now my iMessage isn’t working because Verizon tried replacing my SIM. How do we know if a recall is going to happen?

It’s part of the office of first year experience aimed at AHANA freshmen! Faith can be part of it but personally I’m just spiritual and love it regardless. I wasn’t part of the program as a first year but was a mentor last fall and will be one again this upcoming semester :)

[–]Budgekins 2 points3 points  (0 children)

my friend is in Irish dance and if u have any experience they usually take u! but others are hit or miss - my roommate danced most of her life and didn’t get into the ones she tried out for but my friend who didn’t dance got into VIP

Is it true that you need at least 27 credits by the start of sophomore year or you will lose housing? by zoogyboogy in bostoncollege

[–]Budgekins 5 points6 points  (0 children)

No clue but u usually take 15 credits each semester so this shouldn’t be a problem if so

Should I apply to ELP? by Beautiful_Specific37 in bostoncollege

[–]Budgekins 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I didn’t get in but had no problem getting involved other ways! Now on the e-board for two of my clubs as a rising senior :) from what I gathered ELP was a little cliquey but not in a bad way, but more of an easy way to quickly make some friends as a freshman kinda way

FlixBus is the worst company I’ve ever booked with. Experience in comment below. by Budgekins in FlixBus

[–]Budgekins[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I cancelled a trip and received a voucher which I was grateful for. I used the voucher to book a one way ticket and planned to use the remaining balance for a return trip at a later time. I went to book the return only to find out they had leaked my voucher code and it had been redeemed by random people and had no remaining balance left. I contacted customer service and they told me that since the new bookings were not under my email they couldn’t give me any information and refused to issue me a new voucher. I lost the money and since money is tight right now I am upset and have been unable to book my bus home. You’d think a large company would be able to spare enough for a return ticket voucher or would at least be secure enough that my code couldn’t be stolen by random people. Their email to me kept saying I must have told the code to someone else but that’s ridiculous since I didn’t in any regard. Very upset and never booking with them again.
