I'm a junior in college, I go to school 3 hours away from home. I haven't made hardly any friends here, I've made alot of "acquaintances" you could say, but no true friends. I'm ok with that because I have an amazing boyfriend of 1.5 years, and I do everything with him. He's my best friend here. I work here and I'm involved in a few clubs, but I don't have "friends" in those. I still just feel like something is missing. I pictured college to be so different then what it actually is. I'm pretty shy around people. I can be outgoing when I have to be, but I have hard time just flat out being myself around certain people. It's hard to make alot of "close friends" at college. I'm trying to make the most of it, I'm involved on campus, and I'm going to study abroad winter semester. I just feel like something is missing, and I don't know what, any suggestions? How do you make the most of your college experience?

If you found a fur coat on a fountain, would you fight with the owner if you though you deserved it? (After all, finders keepers)

PS- a friend at school showed me this trick, and it took me a couple of tries to count all the F's (do not include the F's in the question or the PS, only in the additional details)

I'm going to be a senior this year, so I will be asking teachers and coaches for letters of recommendation. Will I be able to see the recommendation they write before I send it to college, or does it go to my guidance conselour and she sends it? For example, my english teacher as of last year went to another school this year. If I write a letter to him at his new school requesting a letter of recommendation, should I include a post stamped envelope to my house or to the school's guidance department?

I've heard this expression a lot, not exactly sure what it means although I (think!) I get the main idea. It's clearly a mathematical reference, although, again, I'm not sure what it means there either. Zero sum: a math problem in which the answer is 0? For example, 2 minus 2? So then the expression 'it's not a zero sum problem' would mean that if I have two apples, and then give you two of them, I would not really have zero, because I would have your goodwill? Am I even close?

Does anyone know what exactly happens when you take your child in for his/her preschool screening. My son who is 2 1/2 is going in September to his preschool screening. Do they take them aside? What exactly do they go over? Just curious?

I currently am en route to become a Mathematics teacher, but I'm starting to maybe want to combine mathematics with physics certification (Any state, would like to move to midwest or NY (Not NYC)).

I've been reading theorems of Physics lately and would like to teach classes on the applications. Mathematics is a love of mine, but physics is right behind it.

Is it feasible for a school to hire someone to do, say, both?
