Where exactly IS the Grebel Library?

Hey Losty,
The Grebel library is located on the fourth floor of the academic wing. Basically, walk over to the other side of Grebel, where the atrium coffee bar is. There, you’ll find a path that leads to some stairs. Go up those stairs and voila, you’re at the library. Remember that the library closes at 9:00 pm on weekdays, at 4:30 pm on Fridays, is open from 1-5pm on Saturdays and is closed on Sundays. Don’t forget about the morgue! It’s there for those times when you can’t access the library. Happy studying and here’s a joke for you: A man goes into a library and doesn't ask the librarian for a book. Instead he uses his own eyes and common sense. This places no burden on the librarian, who subsequently has no need to say anything. Abba |
Dear Lost,
This is one of the best questions that could be asked especially during exam season. I personally love working here. It’s really quite simple. Just walk through the cafeteria, through the upper atrium until you hit some doors. There will be a sign that tells you where to go from there. Things I have heard people say about being in the Grebel library include: “I think I met the love of my life there. She is beautiful and concentrates so much she doesn’t even notice me staring at her from my study carrel” or “Between the stacks of books is an excellent alternative to the prayer room”. Hard at work or hardly working? Good luck finding the library, Arnold |
I'm leaving for co-op and I'll never see some of my close friends again! I'm so sad. How do I DEAL?

Hello All cracked up,
Here are a few tips for you to DEAL: · Think of Christmas and all the fun time you will spend with loved ones. (that ought to distract you for a few hours) · Get an advent calendar, you can afford to eat some chocolate at this moment. · Remember all the money you will be making when you’ll be on co-op, while your friends are here spending exorbitant amounts of dollas (just on rent & food). · Make sure you have facebook friended all your friends so you creep and stalk on them while you’re gone (it’ll be like you never left). · But seriously, it won’t be that bad. You’ll be very busy with work, you won’t have that much time to think about it. If you work nearby, try to go visit on weekends. Love, Abbzi |

Do you know the book/movie “The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants”? They’re about a pair of pants that magically fit four best friends of all different shapes and sizes. These jeans somehow kept these girls together when they were separated for a summer. Maybe that’s just what you need. Sisterhood of the Wandering Onesie? Brotherhood of the Nomadic Nerf Gun? Be creative! Stay in touch! Another option to make the good byes more manageable is to be like Anneke and Elaina and write the Co-op kids a friendly poem. When they are gone text them a “Hey girl, hey”. That can go a long way, but don’t go overboard with the emoticons. Remember: “Friendship never ends” –Spice Girls -Arnold |
I left my pants in the prayer room and now it's all over Facebook. What do I do?

Dear I Was Honestly Just Changing,
Wow
Such bizarre
So interesting
Many awkwards
Buddy, you need to think of the kind of place you change in. Before you go all nude in the prayer room, you wanna think about whether you were the first one to have done that in there… that day. Hygiene is highly important in the Mennonite tradition and the western world. Also, I see a party horn and a wallet in there, which makes me wonder what you were celebrating in there and what you were paying for. In terms of what you should do, simply choose to change in a washroom, bedroom or morgue. Good luck in your endeavours.
Wow,
Much love,
Abbo

I'm in a Peck Poke war and I'm getting bruised! What do I do?

Hi TWTW,
Digitizing things has always worked for me.
Move the war onto facebook. Make it a facebook poke war. Talk to your poker and explain your frustration and disgust with their behaviour. Make sure you fully show them all the bruises with the variety of its colors. If they resist, it doesn’t mean that they’re not true friends, it might mean that they like you so much they like to touch you a lot.
