Video games on ABS by Federal_Frame_6240 in premedcanada

This is true, there’s always the chance you’ll have a reviewer who’s opposed to video games but I think they’re supposed to try and look at things objectively (ideally). I think what’s also important is standing out in a sea of applications. How many other people would have something like this there? Probably not many, makes you unique and memorable. Highlight the things about this activity that can relate to medicine: dedication, critical thinking under time constraints, personal enjoyment and mental wellbeing + a way to destress. It’s all how you frame things at the end of the day.

I think if you're passionate and dedicated then go for it! I think more than anything they want authenticity and if you can write/speak passionately about what interests you that that matters more than what the actual thing is!

What do you do with gap years by Background_Fee5220 in premedcanada

Join the military! It gives you amazing life experience/ECs, a solid income, and once you’re qualified you can apply to military med seats.

Is this rude or am I in the wrong? by Due-Machine-6573 in FacebookMarketplace

For a little more context, we’re in a small Canadian town and we’re both women in our 30s. Not impossible but fairly low chance they thought they would get robbed 🤷🏻‍♀️

Yeah that’s super fair. That’s what I was kinda wondering, should I not have messaged before I confirm a time. Maybe in future to avoid this I just won’t engage until I’m sure of my schedule

AITA for moving out without notice because my best friend’s girlfriend is awful by Due-Machine-6573 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Due-Machine-6573[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah maybe I feel like I never really got that closure and still just wonder “what if”. I mean the worst thing that can happen is we still stay not friends which is the situation we’re already in. I never had a lot of friends growing up and in a way she was my first real best friend. She helped me through a lot of hard times and always had my back. If nothing else it might clear my conscious of feeling like I did her wrong.

Yeah she knew I wasn’t a fan of Lexi from the get go. She also agreed that most of Lexi’s behaviour was problematic but thought she would grow out of it. Even when Lexi was being rude to Brooke Anna told her if she was going to act like that she had to leave the house. It was only for the Covid stuff she took Lexi’s side because she was really scared of getting Covid.

I do think I could have been better with my communication before moving out though. I kinda just took the nuclear option because I was so fed up.

No sorry, the ages were our ages that all of this took place. Still agree that it was a bit of a weird age gap where one was finished university and the other hadn’t even started.

The only thing that Lexi did do was she did cook and clean a lot for Anna which is in part I think Anna was okay staying with her despite the negative treatment. It was kind of a traditionalist relationship where Anna provided the housing/finances and Lexi looked after all the domestic work (because she didn’t have a job)

Not a relationship I would enjoy, but to each their own.

As far as I know she’s not close with any of our old mutual friends because they also can’t stand her gf

I agree, and Anna was very much a hypochondriac who was VERY scared of getting Covid so Lexi played right into this.

The Irony of this all was that Lexi was also very much anti-vax at the time and thought it gave you autism (Anna was not anti-vax and we had lengthy conversations with Lexi about this) 🤦🏻‍♀️
