Changes

Long distance relationships can be troublesome, and some people would suggest that you avoid them at all costs. They generally only work when both parties are really committed to the relationship; they pretty much invariably don't work if you're more attracted to your S.O.'s hot body than to their witty banter. They also pretty much invariably don't work out if you're more attracted to your S.O.'s witty banter than to their hot body. Don't date someone at home while you're abroad; the results will be <i>disastrous</i>. Even if you're happy at school, leave it while you're away and come back when you return.

Neither girls nor boys make sense. If at all possible, avoid getting involved (whether in a relationship or simply a casual hook-up) with one of your entrymates ("entry incest") or, God forbid, someone in your a cappella group. Imagine spending two or three years having to sing cheerfully next to someone you went through a nasty breakup with, and you'll understand why. Unless you're really, really sure that that nasty breakup won't ever happen, it's probably not worth it. It is ''possible'' to date outside your a cappella group. In theory.
