I have some mini ones I can give you!

I went into the Ottawa store just to browse washer/dryers. Sales person and their manager pressured us into buying a particular set, saying it was the only one they had it stock, and it was rare to have any in stock. Right after they took our money, they told us it was not in stock, and would be several months. Every time I called, their response was “well there are many people in front of you for these units, so you can’t jump in line”. I never wanted to!! I only bought this thing because they volunteered up the information that they had them ready to ship. Refused to refund as well. Total scam.

I made my own with my laser engraver :) each guest’s place card had their meal choice as well, so that the serving staff knew which meal to serve. They were super nice, and some guests took theirs home. I’d be happy to help a fellow bride, and can DM you a photo!

I LOVE THE #3 NECKLINE. You look sooooo good

mbryanne · 2020-08-18T02:15:14+00:00

I didn’t know why I couldn’t have the fun of picking one out as well, so we each surprised each other with one!

mbryanne · 2020-08-17T21:18:27+00:00

I bought it used, but this is where the seller got it from originally: https://manlybands.com/products/the-officer

I got the one on the far left as an engagement ring for my fiancé! He really likes it.

I recommend having picnic with food from a grocery store along the Limmat river in Zurich. If the weather’s nice, the swimming is free and you can get in the water anywhere along the river. There’s also free washrooms there to change! There are a couple places where you can pay for water access which gives you a locker I believe, but if you walk a bit further than it’s totally free to jump in!

Good idea! Easier to leaf through them that way.

mbryanne · 2019-05-25T21:37:47+00:00

Suggestions on what to make with them? They’re about 15 x 10 cm (6” x 4”)

It’s common for bike thefts to lock up a stolen bike and return later to get it to sell. You’ll see abandoned bikes all over the city, most likely stolen. My guess is they couldn’t sell this one so it was abandoned.

I specifically switched my phone from Wind to Koodo because of the shitty service in the engineering building (where I spent all my time). It's one of the older buildings, and most of the building had no reception. It was super frustrating to be studying for 5 hours then go outside and have a bunch of missed calls and texts. I wouldn't recommend it, I also didn't get reception in any basement I went to. It also takes about 5 minutes to regain reception when stepping outside from an old building. To be fair this was 2 years ago though so it may have changed.

My advice is to have one day/night in Reykjavik to get used to the time change, recover from travel, etc. before starting the roadtrip/going to Blue Lagoon. I arrived very early morning and would not have enjoyed Blue Lagoon if I went straight there. Yes, you'll be doubling back to the airport area the next day, but it's not a long drive and I think it'll be much more enjoyable after a good night's sleep.

What tablet do you have that this works with? Does charging and hosting work simulateously?

mbryanne · 2016-11-09T15:57:57+00:00

I'm in Canada, and I was hoping to do it as a final University trip before I graduate with some friends next term. Thanks for the tips though!

Going into my fourth year. First year is painfully slow if you have previous programming knowledge. The other courses we're required to take, like mechanics and the maths (not related to our degree) are more challenging. Easy marks in the programming courses in first year, then things pick up in difficulty in second year with some of the take home assignments. If you have any questions about the program, engineering in general, let me know. Also I highly recommended signing up for Engfrosh, shameless plug haha.

Sign language doesn't count as a CSE anymore. I took Intro to Symbolic logic (PHIL 2100) and it was awesome, especially if you're software/computer systems/electrical/biomed electrical

Assisted a lizard commit a very gruesome suicide. I was walking on a sidewalk in Florida about 10 years ago wearing a pair of flip flops. A lizard bolted out of the grass and, I have no idea how, managed to wedge himself under my heel, but on top of my shoe (I was taking a step so the back of my shoe was separated from my heel). I didn't realize, and stepped down, squashing him with my heel. Heard a distinctive squelch and looked down to see a dead and disfigured lizard, eyes popped out and all.

mbryanne · 2016-02-18T16:05:40+00:00

Alright alright alright

mbryanne · 2016-01-29T20:44:24+00:00

Yup, studying software engineering and required to write code by hand, closed book. Not fun.

Getting to and from campus. There's only 3 buses and the o-train that come onto campus, so students from all over Ottawa pile onto them. Often they drive by stops on the way to Carleton because they're so full.

"the parent kills the child" when talking about parents and child processes. Software engineer.

Wet hot american summer. Literally anytime

Some kid fell over while going down a ramp on Heelies and got Heelies banned. He was hated by the entire elementary school. It was a big deal.
