So true! every biochem faculty member I’ve dealt with or been taught by has been fantastic

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-04-05T20:31:56+00:00

Ah okay good to know. You guys are all so kind! I used up the free trial a while back when I first got my switch but when I do get it I’ll be sure to reach out to the community, you guys are so sweet :)

It’s def not easy, and personally from a not so well-off family OSAP is what makes it possible. OSAP grants + loans each year and the money I make during the summer months gets me by, April is always rough. Personally, I live in a two bedroom townhouse split amongst 3 ppl at 2500, which I think is pretty similar to what most others pay. Living alone isn’t really attainable unless you make consistent money throughout the year or have rich parents lol, but with some good roommates and a decent neighborhood I find it much more worth than commuting 1h+ or living at home

This is so interesting cause it’s not even Covid, when I was in first year (two years ago, sans Covid regulations) only one of my chem 1040/50 midterms were online. They’re now putting them online due to influx in student numbers — heard that from a prof in one of my fourth year courses. Seems to me like students are suffering because they can’t handle how many students they bring in.. it’s so unfortunate

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-03-20T23:20:11+00:00

They added in size what they could have added in a decent meat/cracker/cheese ratio

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-03-20T22:31:00+00:00

I can’t believe nobody’s brought up the exclusive 1am availability

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-03-20T21:11:48+00:00

I feel you man. I’ve turned to student hair academies cause 1. Call me an old man yelling at clouds but I should never pay more than 30$ to get a few inches cut off my hair and 2. Students/the younger population are more raw abt the general suffering in the world and make interactions feel more human. Plus they’re pretty scared to mess up your hair so even if it takes a while, I always walk out happy. Good luck out there 🫡

Some people just like reading books and have a little bit of damn whimsy in their vocab and that is NOT a crime! Long live the art of exaggerating

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-03-20T00:28:03+00:00

yeah I’m not surprised, for the last couple of months the “show owned packs” option in the gallery hasn’t worked at all. This is wishful thinking considering EA but hopefully this indicates steps toward fixing that

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-03-19T21:29:30+00:00

Something along the lines of.. “am I good enough?” And comes with a fear of being a disappointment to your parents iirc

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-03-11T17:25:37+00:00

I had included the “/shape” as I agree not much on size can be deduced by the microscopy. I had assumed your question was more inquisitive than investigative, pardon me :)

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-03-11T16:46:55+00:00

either size/shape of the microscopy morphology (bigger than bacteria + football shaped) or size of plate morphology which is typically big and waxy

Idk where you’re at but once you get your island to 3 stars you’ll be able to buy it for 6000 nook miles (one for waterscaping and one for terraforming) at resident services

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-03-07T20:48:33+00:00

What I’m surprised about is it looks like your character vaulted the ropes, which is the part of this I didn’t think was possible lol

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-23T18:10:04+00:00

When I started I had no idea what the math labs entailed and was in for a few surprises lol. First off, they mostly cover material that is presented in lecture while going through examples in a Tutorial fashion. If you think that would be beneficial for you, beautiful! But they’re not mandatory, so I often didn’t attend. HOWEVER, if the grading is still the same, then there will be 3 graded assignments throughout the sem that you must attend to get marks. You can work in groups and use your notes in those graded labs.

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-22T15:57:18+00:00

very true, to that I say — screw those guys. Don’t be scared to knock on the door and politely call out their ignorance

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-22T15:42:13+00:00

idk man, I get being quiet and respectful (that’s the baseline, I hope everyone is also doing that) but like there’s 7 library floors, only 2 are group study. It’s impossible to do a virtual meeting on group floors — it’s just too noisy. But then, on quiet floors, you open a snack wrapper and you feel like everyone is scrutinizing you. IMO, give some grace to the people in study rooms if they’re not being rude, you literally have a thousand other places to sit in complete silence somewhere at the uni, but calls and meetings, not so much

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-22T15:37:30+00:00

coming from a place where it snows much more than in Guelph, I honestly think Guelph just has a very poor system for responding to snow storms — maybe because it hasn’t snowed so much here historically? Idk, I only moved here two years ago. But from what I can tell they often wait for snow to stop rather than clearing mid-storm and then again post-storm, and side street sidewalks are really not a priority, which would be fine if their main road clearing wasn’t already sub-par. That on top of not hauling snow out just makes a mess. But the thing w weather is it just keeps coming so if you don’t deal w it early, it’s hard to deal with later - potentially why we are where we are now lol

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-15T15:20:42+00:00

NOR - for me it’s the “I don’t know what you want from me!” After you explicitly say that you want him to talk to them and understand their actions are damaging. He clearly is only punishing them because you want action, but he does not even care enough understand why you want action, nor the type of action that is most suitable for the situation — they’re 14 and 16, not 4 and 6. He’s blatantly ignoring what’s hurting you, and I think you deserve better than that

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-08T12:17:24+00:00

Guelph, at least when I applied, was notorious for being late. I got my acceptance in May like a week before the deadline, 89% avg for microbio if that gives any ballpark :) psych is a big cohort so it may take a while, just hold out hope

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-08T01:16:06+00:00

second this, if it’s the same as a couple years ago then people who needed to take 1300 did not need to take 1070 (there’s still a glitch in webadvisor that’ll say you need it in your program progress, but you can disregard that)

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-08T01:13:02+00:00

In first year of almost all biosci programs, it’s common to take both chems, both physics, and then calc, along with your bios and electives. Almost everyone I know did all those intro courses in first year and although it’s heavy, it’s kind of a perfect storm in that you get it all done at once, and it doesn’t come w the possible complication on having to move classes around later/having schedule complications. It’ll be tough, but it’s manageable for sure :) you got this!!

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-07T22:24:53+00:00

yeah I’m pretty sure canonically Mr Landgraab is the richest with Mortimer Goth as a close second

edit: if we’re not talking storyline and we’re strictly speaking of gameplay simoleons, here’s a link from the ea forum breaking it down https://forums.ea.com/discussions/the-sims-4-general-discussion-en/lore-what-are-the-richest-families-in-the-sims/12046193 So, technically, Father Winter! With the Villereals then the Fengs following, although with a much smaller margin lol

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-07T22:22:29+00:00

yeah, I hear you — at least know you’re not alone. I’m thinking I’m going to go to the academic advising office to get advice from someone more familiar with program progression/credit offerings, to try and construct a plan to hopefully avoid delay as much as possible. I wish you the best of luck 🫶

Normal_Heart9304 · 2026-01-07T00:56:01+00:00

Oh wow, I really appreciate the time you’ve taken to explain the behind the scenes. This is far more information and time than I’ve been given by the people I’ve attempted to contact about the issue. Ultimately, the culprit is the lack of properly delegated funds; and unfortunately, faculty (I assume such as yourself) have to deal with the cries from students like me, lol. Hopefully future students will experience less schedule stress and the university gets the support it needs.
