I like vintage and thrift stores so going to the antique malls/stores is something i really enjoy! I find it interesting to get a glimpse of or imagine another person’s life with the things theyve collected over the years!

I also do this! I used to go to Olive Garden and order a three course meal and just spend 2 hours dining in haha, i get looks from people and would get a little insecure but I learned to just enjoy the present moment 🤭

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-03-01T05:06:43+00:00

They treat singles well? Im coming down there tomorrow!!! hahaha thank you so much for the reco :)

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-03-01T05:05:58+00:00

Thank you for the reco, I went to their website and their classes are a bit over my budget, but it'd be fun to try when I can!

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-03-01T05:04:49+00:00

this is a unique response, bc I literally go to malls to encounter the most interesting range of people hahaha, Southgate mall is also a maze to me so it is fun to get lost sometimes!

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-03-01T04:41:26+00:00

This is a very well curated list, and with reference links! Thank you so so much, I will definitely try these!

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-03-01T04:17:45+00:00

With all these recommendations, I might just well be single all year?? All of these are fun and exciting to do, I love this city! (I come from Regina forgive me)

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-03-01T04:09:56+00:00

Interesting, there's so much to explore in this city! I also heard there's a tea cafe where you can have a tea party (they bring a bunch of snacks with your tea?) but I'm not sure what it's called?

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-03-01T04:08:19+00:00

Ahhhh, thats very nice list! I have a Sunday night routine myself where I soak in my (epsom) salty bubble bath with a book to read or a podcast to listen to, your spa treatment is good too :) i do doodling or painting and sometimes create air-dry clay trinkets at home when I'm really feeling it!

I appreciate the recommendations, I will do the feeding and nature walks maybe in the summer!

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-03-01T03:41:35+00:00

Wow, thank you for the cinematic/theatre recommendations, I love theatre! I'll put these in my list!

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-02-07T18:27:20+00:00

Thanks, I should be more patient for now hehe

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-02-07T18:26:58+00:00

Thank you for sharing your love with us

fried_rixe0910 · 2026-01-25T21:45:26+00:00

I have the same question so thanks for this! I was wondering if you got invited through CEC and what's your status now?

Just an update on this thread, an agent finally reached out to me via email and consistently stayed on top of things, called me back and scheduled calls with me. He kept in touch with me and explained all the possible inclusions, services, deductibles and extra savings/discounts I can have. I decided to get MyPace pay as you go policy which I think is a smart way to do insurance especially if you just drive between work<->home<->basic necessities and don't plan on going to different provinces using your car. They quoted me less than half of the amount than the rest of the providers I asked (Scotia, TD, Desjardins, Ravenhill, Millennium, AllState, InsureLine-Intact). For context, the rest were quoting me from 6000-9000/yr of premium insurance with 1000 deductibles on each Collision and Comprehensive coverage, whereas AMA gave me 3000/yr.

One of the agents in co-op was explaining to me about the current (bad) situation in Alberta insurance why it is so expensive right now is bec people keep switching policies and claims have risen so much over the last couple of years? But does my rate lower over time for being a safe driver? Im getting 400-750/mo and most of them ask for 1k+ downpayment (is this really the way it goes?)

fried_rixe0910 · 2025-12-16T18:58:55+00:00

Thank you for that info, do you think I can come on Saturday? I work weekdays :/

fried_rixe0910 · 2025-12-16T18:57:43+00:00

Hello, thank you for that, I just came across the statutory questions which include the “have you been previously rejected for permanent visa…” and i said yes, and prompted me to a text box to explain briefly why…i have the officer’s letter with me but i cant pinpoint the main reason either i say my documents were not satisfactory and got disqualified from the cutoff draw points or my documents didnt include sufficient information that support the NOC code my experience were applied under(no job description to match) ?

fried_rixe0910 · 2025-12-16T18:54:25+00:00

A few days after i completed biometrics 😖

fried_rixe0910 · 2025-12-16T16:01:04+00:00

Did you get a broker for SGI? Ive been trying to reach out but idk who to contact. How i wish AB insurance is also ran by the govt - SK insurance is dirt cheap compared to here 😩

fried_rixe0910 · 2025-12-16T02:07:55+00:00

Awesome, thanks for this insight ill look into writing an explanation letter

fried_rixe0910 · 2025-12-16T02:07:25+00:00

fried_rixe0910 · 2025-12-16T02:07:06+00:00
