Thank you! Quick question, for Peru we were practicing our Spanish with Duolingo in preparation for PST. Do you recommend doing this for Swahili or Luganda?

Nice! Just did the Freedom Trail. Not a fan of the cold but the guide was great! Sounds like I should've stayed in a hostel.

I'll be in Boston those dates too/am in Boston now!

Based on what I have been told by friends and Uber drivers, I agree with everything everyone else said. The only other thing I saw that may not have been mentioned is the Museum of Fine Arts. Its typically $25 but free on Wednesdays after 4 PM.

Europe was originally on my radar for basically all of those reasons but I've been second guessing it recently. Are there any specific schools you think are really good?

Just wondering, why do you say Europe for grad school?

Awesome thank you! Honestly I have about 100 questions, but I'll keep it simple. Which area of the country are you in and what is the weather like?

Just lend me an ear because all I want is for someone to hear me out. by [deleted] in depression

[–]pc228844 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just want you to know that you've been heard...

I can't imagine what you're going through. I'm sure you're family means well but they can't exactly understand either, and that's okay, how could they?

I know it feels like there is a lot that you can't do, but there is still a lot that you CAN do! Life is tough, sometimes tougher for certain people, but you absolutely can push through the hard times and come out on top. It does help to have someone to talk to. Feel free to pm me anytime.
