Hey everyone — I’m a high school junior really interested in Boston College. I’m trying to get a clear picture of what the actual costs look like for families with low income.

My family situation in a nutshell: • family of 5, 2 adults w/o work (dad lost job, grandmas retired)+ dad is kinda in/out of our life. Brother in college (scholarship), and mum - 46k in 2025. 1 house, got in 2019- about 365k value, mortgage about $1000-1700 a month (I believe) No businesses or other homes.

Edit: house is under grandmothers name.

Very nervous if I get in and for aid.

(I can’t apply for the scholarship my brother has- it was based on his highschool)

Hey

Does anyone know any soup kitchens that accept teen volunteers alone (16) and have shifts after school?

Preferably in the northeast Philly to lower bucks area

Hey-

Trying to volunteer in highschool for the next year but it seems every place that I want to work with is 18+ or needs an adult with me.

Any places for highschoolers to volunteer at for junior/senior year in the northeast Philly/ lower bucks area?

(Possibly stem / accounting related but can be anything)

Tutoring would also be a great option-

Hi, I’m an upcoming junior with a unweighted current gpa of 3.83, weighted current of 4.33 and cumulative of 4.28. I’m vp of finance for DECA, and in future engineers. This year I plan to volunteer a lot and join community service corp (and possibly robotics club) + get a job.

I want to apply either engineering or accounting.

I know my ec’s are lowkey bad, I’m trying to better them.

Crazy dream school would be Boston college but let’s be real

I’m planning to apply to Lehigh next year and I know they like demonstrated interest, how do I show that. I want to apply engineering or accounting, but I’m stuck between doing ed for Lehigh or Boston college

When the day you’re supposed to pick up your passport is the same day as your flight and the consulate closes because a building nearby might collapse..

Edit: not to mention I was supposed to get it yesterday but their internet just so happened to go down

Hey- I got prescribed a sodium sulfacetamide cleanser for every morning and clindamycin lotion every morning, and 0.025 tretinoin every 3rd night.

But I know clindamycin can cause anti biotic resistance so how do I add benzoyl peroxide to this routine to prevent that?

My next derm appointment isn’t for months and they’re always full

I started using the clindamycin lotion at like the beginning of June and I’m half way full of the bottle

Hey

I sprayed about 4 days ago with 2 packets in 1 gallon of water and used about 1/4, I sprayed a little more like 2 days ago and again today but tonight I saw 3 active and alive roaches going over the area I sprayed and having no reaction. Yesterday I saw 1 dead one and 1 slow one but that’s it.

I also saw them going into an outlet to hide which I’m nervous is them making another nest since their nest is behind the stove

Did I mess up? Why isn’t it working

Hi
So I was spraying an alpine wsg water mixture to kill roaches behind my stove and I accidentally sprayed in the outlet and didn’t realize till a couple minutes after. It was pretty wet so I would say maybe a teaspoon amount

The stove turned itself off even while it was still plugged in.

I took out the plug from the outlet. There’s no cover on the outlet

What should I do?? Panicking

Hey-

I sprayed gentrol a couple times behind my stoves and surrounding areas and resprayed today and before, I’m seeing a lot of oval speck sized roaches on the counter at night, no adults. I haven’t seen any adults since before the gentrol. I know they live behind the stove because I’ve seen them go back into the crack between the counter and stove.

What does it mean if I’m only seeing the babies?

I’ve really only been seeing them on the counter not on the stove now so I’m scared they found a new nest

( don’t judge I’m trying my best but when you live in a house of slobs it’s hard)

Hey guys - my derm prescribed a sodium sulfacetamide cleanser, clindamycin lotion, and 0.025% tretinoin. She didn’t tell me she was prescribing clindamycin.

What’s the best way to use these products together? And what are good moisturizers and sunscreens for normal to combination skin ?- but I feel like the oil is from the cera vê sunscreen moisturizer I use in the morning. I use the la Roche posay purifying foaming cleanser for normal to oily skin rn with the cerva ve pm moisturizer.

I heard using clindamycin should only be temporary because of the antibiotic resistance.

Hey guys!

I did the bra calculator a couple weeks back and bought a 32C bra off my calculations

(Loose UB- 31 , Snug UB- 29 , Tight UB- 28, Standing bust- 33 , Leaning bust- 34, Lying bust- 32)

But the 32C cups seem to be a little loose when standing with good posture, and a gaping at the top when with regular/ bad posture, and the straps are loose too, especially when sitting down and relaxing, almost falling off my shoulders.

And my boobs aren’t super small either, like hand cupped size, I guess??

I’m also not super super skinny like average and these seem small when I look them up. I don’t know what size now.

Help?

Hey guys!

I’m trying to do my CPF application online but I’m a dual citizen so my mom has an American number and it won’t accept it.

Help?

I put Brazil as nationality and location as USA. I’ve been to Brazil multiple times, what do I put as my date of leaving

Hey Guys!

I’m supposed to be going to Brazil in June and I need a passport still. I’m a dual citizen but my old one expired and now I’m over 16 so I need an adult one. I still haven’t gotten my cpf and kinda need to get both in the same day since that’s all I have left for my absences at work.

what do I do?

Hey guys! I need a passport by June

Am I able to use 1-2 day shipping for going to the passport agency and coming back to me? Bc on the website it only has a coming back to me option. Would that still only be $22.05 for both ways? Also

If I apply by the end of April and use expedited for my passport and 1-2 day shipping do you think I will get it in time?

Or if I apply the 7th of may, do you think I will make it in time?
