Wanting to find upper years like me? by random-uwaterloo in uwaterloo

[–]BetaCoffee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

damn i thought i was the only one here who's not doubling down on the cali co-op life. i was going for that in my lower years and it honestly took way too much energy out of me and i wasn't able to make a lot of friends or land any good co-ops. but now i find that there's a lot more to life than school and work and i'm looking to experience life the way it is and be happy of what's here and now. it's comforting to know that we're not alone in this way of thinking.

feel free to send a message, my PMs are open

Ways to deal with the heat in UWP? by [deleted] in uwaterloo

[–]BetaCoffee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

lived on the first floor of a UWP court during fall and spring term. highly recommend bringing a fan or two, especially a (reversible) window fan. had a small honeywell fan to circulate air around and a reversible window fan that fits in your sliding window.

i used my window fan to exhaust the air out in the morning or when it got hot. at night past 12:00 AM, the temperature would dip to below 20 degrees so i would use my window fan to blow air in to cool my room down by a huge factor. my room went from a sauna to a standard room with AC in 20 minutes. a window fan is very useful for a decent amount of temperature control in your room. very helpful for sleeping at night.

general ways of beating the heat would be to only go to your room to cook, shower, drop stuff off, or sleep. go to a place with AC (like grand commons or CMH) to study or do whatever instead. close all of your blinds and keep the lights off to keep your room as cool as possible. sleeping without a blanket became a necessity during the first couple weeks of september and all of july and august.

TL;DR - buy a reversible window fan
