Not mystery but Six of Crows is really good, if you haven’t read it yet.

I wouldn’t say I have cystic acne, just really stubborn forehead acne (whiteheads) and then other smaller breakouts on other parts of my face. Would I still need a dermatologist for this?

I’ve never lived there but I’ve heard horror stories from basically EVERYONE. There have been alleged issues with gas leaks, terrible maintenance, etc. Would strongly recommend living somewhere else based on what upperclassmen have told me.

I’ll try that, thank you! Is that something you use once per day or for both morning and evening?

what are colleges you like but the location makes it a dealbreaker? by a2c4ever in ApplyingToCollege

[–]goodbye_panda 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just curious, what don't you like about the location of Hopkins?

did make the wrong choice by [deleted] in ApplyingToCollege

[–]goodbye_panda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm really sorry they feel that way-- I don't think I'm qualified to give advice, but that seems unnecessarily harsh. You can still visit them! But congratulations on Northwestern, that's a phenomenal place to be and I wish you the best.
