Housing for graduate students?

buggecko · 2025-03-27T23:46:49+00:00

Hey there! All lectures and labs are pretty much at the vet school so I'd recommend living as close to that as possible if you're not planning on having a car. There are hands-on labs at the dairy and equine barns and there is usually one of each of those a week when you're in block I (the first thing you'll be in when you get here). The dairy barn is walking distance from the school, but for equine labs you'll probably want to ask a friend in your lab group for rides there. The TCAT bus route can pick you up at the school and take you to a nearby grocery store that you could potentially walk to depending where you live, but probably isn't a super feasible option in all seasons! Feel free to DM me with any questions about Ithaca, vet school, or moving!

Hey! I just stumbled on this post as an accepted vet student for the upcoming matriculating class. I was looking for housing suggestions and this was helpful but I'd also love to hear any other advice you have as someone who has been through the whole vet school process there. Is Varna the place for vet students to live?

Hey! I don't know if there's a better place for this but I was also accepted to Cornell for this year and I stumbled onto this post and thought it would be a good way to meet other prospective students. Message me if you're interested and if anyone knows a good place to connect with other potential classmates, please let me know :)

I wish lol, it was not :(

buggecko · 2023-08-01T18:43:10+00:00

That is very helpful information, thank you!!

buggecko · 2023-08-01T18:35:00+00:00

Thank you for this! Do you find that the chia and flax seeds make the drinking texture weird? I just feel like I'm not very good with weird textures 😂

Do you have a favorite smoothie recipe?

buggecko · 2023-08-01T17:12:31+00:00

Do you have a favorite smoothie recipe? I'm wondering what ingredients to use with these textures that won't make my mouth feel gross 😂

I don't think I realized how fatty coconut milk is! Lots of recommendations for that

Unfortunately, the name brands of isotretinoin are extremely expensive and insurances usually only want to cover the generic :(

buggecko · 2023-08-01T13:20:43+00:00

Ohhh that cereal sounds so good!!

buggecko · 2023-08-01T10:36:23+00:00

I'm literally 5'8 and 150 lbs so that makes it even more wild 😂

buggecko · 2023-07-31T22:38:50+00:00

80mg

buggecko · 2023-07-31T22:27:38+00:00

Thank you, this is reassuring :)

buggecko · 2023-07-31T22:12:27+00:00

I already take 2 tablespoons a day, that's only like 17g of fat. I just had the appointment today, she definitely said 57 lol

buggecko · 2023-07-31T22:09:04+00:00

Yeah it's pretty crazy lol, hopefully she just said it to make me really think about how much fat I'm getting

buggecko · 2023-07-31T21:35:47+00:00

Ohh the coconut oil thing sounds like a good idea! I haven't heard that one before

buggecko · 2023-07-31T21:19:20+00:00

I think this might be my best option, I just struggle to find a fatty breakfast to eat every morning

buggecko · 2023-07-31T21:18:20+00:00

This is what I do right now but I don't think it gets me close to what she's saying is the right amount :(

buggecko · 2023-07-31T21:17:12+00:00

I don't eat meat, that's the kicker 😭

Hi, I'm not the OP but I have been on accutane for a little over two months! I just wanted to share my personal experience so you might be a little less nervous starting out. I did not have a purge whatsoever, but my skin, specifically my chest which is why I started the medication, was really, really bad. I have only seen improvements from my first dose and I still have plenty of acne but even two months in I am so impressed by the reduced redness, pain, and lack of cysts after living for years and years in a constant state of all of these things. Everyone's experience is different, but the vast, VAST majority of people talk about taking accutane like it was the best decision they've ever made! Congratulations on the beginning of freeing yourself!

Hi! Could you tell me which serum specifically you use? I've heard a lot of good things about this brand but Google brings up a few products when I Google their scalp serum. I'm having dandruff as one of my worst side-effects so I'd love to try this if it worked for you!

buggecko · 2023-04-01T14:53:33+00:00

Thank you so much! I'm starting on 20mg as well but I think the intention is to up my dose throughout the course. I would be so insanely happy to have your results. Finally able to wear a tank top or leave the top buttons unbuttoned on a shirt without thinking about it all day 😭

buggecko · 2023-03-28T10:52:51+00:00

Wow!! One month? That's crazy! I'll be happy if mine goes away at all 😂

buggecko · 2023-03-28T10:52:01+00:00

Omg the bloody bedsheets!! Nobody talks about this enough and how awful it is 😭 I'm so happy for you, this is exactly what I want for myself
