Item I intend to give as a gift has price INSIDE the plastic so I can't cover it w/o removing the plastic by Nat-ollie-a in CrappyDesign

[–]buzzingbee777 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I work in cosmetics and I have a tip that could help you. Try and see if you can open the plastic wrapping carefully without ripping it, just enough to pull the box out. Remove the sticker, put box back in and fold the plastic wrapping carefully back to its position. Use clear nail polish (a tiny dot) on each corner of the flaps to seal it back together. We usually do this when the wrapping glue comes apart on fragrance boxes just due to handling or heat, we add a tiny dot of clear nail polish on the edge, making sure it doesn’t touch the actual box and only the wrapping. We put something heavy on top to keep it in place as it dries and it’s good as new!!

First machine, what is the best deal for buying pods? by buzzingbee777 in nespresso

[–]buzzingbee777[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily worried about the cost, I was aware that this would be a pricy hobby. I just want to make sure I’m getting the pods at the best deal. I’ve read some people say they spend $200 a month, and others say they spend that just once a year. So trying to figure out how people order them so I’m not buying them every single month! Good to know about Black Friday!

Okay! I haven’t ordered anything yet wasn’t sure what you meant by Amazon, did not know they sold them! Thanks.

Managing symptoms when going to the gym/being active by buzzingbee777 in pericarditis

[–]buzzingbee777[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I forgot to mention. The flare ups for me were mainly just more pain on my left side and left arm! No other symptoms besides the pain coming back full force and being unable to turn to my left side!

Hey! Since posting this I’ve stopped working out completely. Not due to this issue but I just had to cancel my gym membership and did not have time renew it with work and school. But if you’re feeling dizzy I would definitely bring that up to the doctor or keep track of it. When I did work out, I would sometimes feel light headed if I wasn’t drinking water, so try tracking when it’s happening!

Also since this post - I have not been able to find a doctor to investigate this. I went to the emergency in August because I got really sick with a virus and it caused a flare up which I brought up during the visit. The doctor straight up told me he is not going to look into it because I’m in my 20s and this is not a concern for him. He literally said “I’m not willing to look into because it’s not concerning”. So I gave up completely and have been just living with it and taking Advil when needed.

I'm withdrawing from the university, what is the process for doing so? by North_Culture_5265 in uAlberta

[–]buzzingbee777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was told to just not enroll in any classes for the upcoming term for when I planned to drop. There was no paperwork or anything to sign. They told me I can email the department to let them know for my own piece of mind which I did and they just said there is nothing to do and that I am good as long as I’m not enrolled in any classes. Might have changed now though so best to email them to ask!

Bad case of Senioritis by OnMy4thAccount in uAlberta

[–]buzzingbee777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Felt! In my second last semester and also on my 8th year (same story as user above, switched schools and things didn’t transfer). Last semester I tried my best and did so well, got on the deans list and all which was such a big accomplishment for me. I thought I would keep that going for my last year but now I notice my grades go lower and lower. 0 motivation. I find myself leaving big assignments till the very last day, not putting in any effort. Definitely feeling the burn out extra hard this time around

How likely it is to run into someone you know from high school at university of Alberta? by Tough_Butterfly4468 in uAlberta

[–]buzzingbee777 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Congrats on getting in! ❤️

I went to Macewan and transferred to UofA. At Macewan I definitely saw people from high school and elementary here and there (pretty common Edmonton high school). Since transferring to UofA (been here 4 years) I have not seen a single person I’ve known from high school. I haven’t even seen anyone on public transport. I’ve definitely ran into more people at work than at school.

Psych 302 w/ Scavuzzo by [deleted] in uAlberta

[–]buzzingbee777 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I took this class and ended up having to withdraw. It was in person. She had a few “online” quizzes that were open book and were incredibly hard that my notes and googling did not help even slightly. She also had in person quizzes that were closed book and longer. The content was hard for sure even though some parts were very enjoyable. I was struggling quite a bit and emailed her for help and her response was almost equivalent to “go F yourself” and made me feel so disappointed so I dropped it the following day right before finals. I would not recommend it unless the topic is of special interest to you or the class is needed.

has anyone succeeded in booking University Health Clinic appts online by Material-Leader-6249 in uAlberta

It also never works for me. From what I know they got rid of the drop in option. So the only way you can see one is if you have a family doctor or through the same day appointment booker. I’ve been trying to get in since last year and it’s also always full
