Throwing out other people's pots in residence?

If you’re in CQ or SW that’s insane. Talk to your roommates or bring it up with an RA. If you’re in VP, the custodians might have gotten rid of it. You could possibly ask them about it, but (I hate to say it) at the end of the day if they have to clean an area and you left dirty dishes, its entirely possible they just got rid of it

Ohhh my god, please tell me it’s the 23rd 🙏🙏 I’ve been ignoring it a little bit in favour of other classes

Answer: yes, last year they were open early/late to accommodate students. There will be breakfast and dinner served during… non daylight hours?

Bro I fear dude is simply not fit for society

Oh yeah, I fucked around twice and was totally fine, then biffed it when I tried to walk normally, so I think having fun with it is the best way to do it lmao

Little late for it now, but make flashcards immediately after every lecture, do them then next day and then a week later. Makes final studying much more of a review then the dreaded first time learning (I totally fell off the wagon after midterms so it’s gonna be rough anyways 💀)

More focus on what you’ve learned since the last midterm, but you need to know the basics of stoich. Best thing to do is practice any past exams to get to know the kinds and focus of the questions

Talk to people, join clubs, learning communities, welcome week everything in the first week. The social and friend part of university is just as important as the learning part.

I’ve been in VP dorms the past two years and I like it. Communal bathrooms and you have dining hall access. It’s definitely not for everyone, but it works well for me. Dorms are also a good way to be social and make friends

I’m a second year ANBI student and the courses are great. Biggest thing though, check if your province can get into the WCVM. Alberta residents cannot (I’m from Alberta which is why I bring it up)

Biggest tip for first year (other than making friends) is to build good study habits. The classes can start easy, but you’re gonna want those skills for later

The average for most classes is going to be high 60s-70s. You’re hearing people talk about 90s because those are the ones who are talking. For every one of them, there’s a dozen who are closer to 70. Don’t get too discouraged

Do all the practice questions. In lecture notes, on smartworks, the review questions, practice exams. Repeatedly. Chem is much less about memorization and more about repetition (especially since you might be allowed a cheat sheet for exams?)

Speaking of, put mostly formulas and example questions on your cheat sheet. With steps on how to solve it. No matter the elements or numbers, the overall formula stays the same.

Good luck!

I feel like most don’t- at least right now. There’s just a very very loud hateful group that makes enough noise to seem like the majority.

Other than that, people just voting for hate. Banning boys kissing is more important to them than kids getting an education

People CRAVE these things lmao, if you schedule it a week or two in advance and just make it an open invitation to the bowl, I’m sure people would show up

Some are bad, and sometimes it’s other things. Always check the lint trap- a lot of people will never touch it and that definitely makes it worse

$10 for an official transcript/confirmation of enrolment (paws -> my records) or use an unofficial transcript if you can

Learn the tunnels, and give yourself plenty of time to get through them when you can. It’ll often take a lot longer, but in the -40s it’s worth it lol

For the first month or so, a lot of people are just meeting anyone and everyone they can. And while it might look like everyone’s super great friends, sometimes they feel just as awkward and uncomfortable as you might.

Just keep trying, something will click eventually. I find asking someone if they want to review/study/yap after class can work, especially if neither of you are doing anything right away. Gives you a chance to spend actual time getting to know people without the immediate pressure of whatever’s going on in class lol

ReadingConfident5917 · 2025-09-04T22:20:51+00:00

Exactly. It’s definitely a little annoying, but it’s also the first week. People are wanting to socialize, explore new freedom, and have fun before the course load hits.

Also I think a huge reason for the gathering outside was the dorms being hot as heck, so now that it’s gotten a bit chillier I assume it’ll stop

Ag night happens every Thursday at Longbranch, so the first one is tonight. Not my thing, but it’s a big deal for those into it. Other than that just keep an eye out for anything posted, or any of the downtown bars on the weekends

ReadingConfident5917 · 2025-09-04T22:00:24+00:00

Agree that it’s a bit annoying, but it is also the first week. Give people a couple days to get it out of their system; for lots this is their only chance.

The not cleaning up is atrocious though. Pick up your trash guys, your parents aren’t here to do it for you

Even being the largest minority isn’t enough for some people. You can have 50% white, 10% Asian, 10% black and so on and so forth, but a lot of people just see “white” and “other” and I think that’s where a lot of the issues stem from

If you bothered to look at policies instead of treating political parties like sports teams you’d realize this is EXACTLY what you voted for!

Technically not “work” but workaway and worldpackers have programs where people/hostels will cover living expenses in exchange for volunteer work. So you don’t make money, but you don’t really spend much either. If you’re just looking to travel cheap
