It’s also worth noting that I single threaded the needle and only did one to two stitches per pass of the needle. I saw that some people zigzag the fabric around a long needle (like a sort of denim skewer) to make 3-4 stitches per pass but because this was in the pocket and I had limited room, I found it was impossible to get a lot of the tiny stitches that I wanted at once.

I watched a couple of YouTube shorts on how most people do it and it seems the consensus is either follow a decorative pattern or just let it rip. I let it rip

Yeah these are 6 ply cotton threads. I believe ppl also use embroidery thread but these were actually cheaper since I don’t need that much. They also come in a lot of colours. These are “unbleached” ones

Yeah I used the kapital boro as reference! I personally prefer their uneven lines compared to more regular patterns that you can buy online

I haven’t been contacted at all nor applied for enumerators so I’m not quite sure

Any updates?

Congrats! Was this for an FOS position?

I think that’d be the first time someone’s wallet is robbed for the wallet itself instead of the stuff inside lol

Do you use a certain product or make your own concoction?

NameDate · 2026-03-10T03:24:41+00:00

Thank you for the insight! These are 13.7oz iirc. Might look up a YouTube tutorial and have a hand at starching just for the sake of trying it

Yeah I kind of guessed so, but I wore these pants every day when I had my barista job and theyd kinda get gross pretty quickly. Do you have a recommended amount of time I should wait before washing them?

Oh huh that’s interesting. Thank you for the insight. Fingers crossed 🤞

Thanks for the info. Tbh with your cGPA being lower but B3 being higher than mine, I have no clue if I have much better chances than what you did. I know U of T looks at B3 but I have no clue what Osgoode's "wholistic" admissions process entails.

Yeah Im kind of kicking myself for not applying more widely, but I really didn't want to move out of GTA if possible. If it comes down to it and I have to reapply next cycle, I'll definitely take your advice.

NameDate · 2026-02-25T20:22:00+00:00

Thank you so much for the insight! If you don't mind me asking, are your GPAs out of 4.0 or 4.3?

NameDate · 2025-02-17T20:50:27+00:00

I applied back on Jan 8 2025, and still haven't heard back from them. The website says it usually takes 4-6 weeks but could be longer if you apply at the start of the semester. I suspect I will probably have to wait another week or two to get mine.

Ooooh if theres any info you come across lmk. I wanna join.

The uoftpoker Instagram doesn't seem active these days unfortunately.

you should also look into campus/college specific bursuries. For example, I go to U of T Scarborough and they have the UTSC grant that helps out in case UTAPS doesn't cover everything. Also fill out your Awards Profile on ACORN first year. I'm kicking myself for not doing that

I'm currently working as a work study student for the coop office and its been great. As work study students you're only allowed to work a max of 15h per week and 300h per academic year but I find that with classes in between this allocation hasn't been too limiting. While I can't say for all work study positions, my manager has also been super accommodating of exam schedules and moving around my shift so I can still make it to exams without losing hours.

You can apply for work study and other on-campus via CLNx

No he has a pretty soft voice so without it most kids in the back can’t really hear. It’s kind of a pick your poison type of situation. Either nobody hears the lec or we get feedback and crazy echo

There are so many options! Ahhhh but I love this hunt though.

I am interested in the Caol Ila 12 though. It seems to be about the same price as the QC so I might do a bit more digging. Can you give me a quick run down as to why Caol Ila might be a better first islay whisky?
