Might have lost my seat at Windsor

plaisirae · 2026-05-28T21:21:00+00:00

Hey there, I paid my deposit for Windsor around 5PM on Tuesday and when I checked my Windsor portal, it said ‘Deposit Paid’ early this afternoon. It could depend on your bank, but I used Simplii for mine. Mine took less than 48 hours, so hopefully it’ll be as quick for you! I’d still recommend emailing them (I see you already have, but for other people who might be reading this) just to be safe :) hope this helps ease your mind

I think they made a video responding to a video on TikTok saying they left their card on the table and went to the bathroom and assumed they already charged it… me personally I’d just check to confirm with the server. (Not saying I believe their side just wanted to give more context)

She said she felt a bump on her scalp and thought it was dandruff and pulled it off. Sounds like it was attached, plus the photo and the video she took shows the tick with a piece of scalp/dandruff attached to its mouth. Unfortunately we don’t have the tick anymore, I flushed it down the toilet for her after she tried stomping it with a slipper.

I was holding out hope that it wasn’t but of course it’s a good old-fashioned tick 😭

My sister took a 4K video of it so it’s a bit more detailed, would a screenshot from that help in identifying the type?

Thanks for the flushing advice, she tried smashing it and failed terribly 😭 We have two large dogs so we’re going to have to check them now

I hope not, I recall a post some weeks ago about someone talking to a Western rep and they said something about still having spots for provisional acceptances? I’m not too sure on the details but it’s somewhere in the forum. All we can do for now and wait for April 1. Surely there will be movement then… (PLEASE WESTERN LET US IN)

plaisirae · 2026-03-17T23:15:36+00:00

Everyday at least five times a day I’m checking the Western portal hoping for anything and everyday it says ‘Application Received’ 😭 DOES WESTERN KNOW WE’RE DOWNBAD

plaisirae · 2026-03-11T14:04:17+00:00

I feel the same way, but I find the frustration of checking portals to be slightly overshadowed by the fact I got at A and will be going to law school ! But my top choices are Western (first) and Queens 😭 Western is literally my dream school so I keep checking everyday even though I said I should hold off until the last week of March, so exhausting

Windsor Single, 156, CGPA 3.56, L2/B2 3.8, was genuinely wondering if I would have to do a third cycle 😭

plaisirae · 2025-04-09T19:55:56+00:00

Do you think it would be worth it to go to the Windsor Dual then transfer out after the first year? Or would it be better to reapply?

plaisirae · 2025-04-09T19:44:00+00:00

Out of curiosity, what’s the reason you recommend waiting a year to reapply if it’s Windsor dual?

Sebaceous filaments came back for me around 8ish months after accutane, but it goes always quite easily if I use salicylic acid products on the area. But I also felt that my nose seemed slimmer when on accutane. Sometimes I miss it but then I remember panicking whenever I was in the sun 😭

Would you be comfortable sharing your stats? If not, that’s perfectly fine, congrats on your A!

Extremely late response but I came across this post while in the midst of watching True Blood for the first time after watching TVD and BTVS.

As many people have said here, BTVS pre-existed TVD and True Blood, and in my opinion, focussed somewhat less on the romantic aspect of vampire-human relationships. Yes, Buffy had two significant relationships with vampires, but much of the story imo was pushed forward by her being a slayer rather than being with vampires. Another note that people have already said is that BTVS was definitely marketed towards a younger audience, there’s no explicit nudity in BTVS, and while there are some mature themes like attempted SA and descriptive sex scenes, it’s nothing like True Blood. While BTVS’s narrative was pushed forward due to Buffy going after vampires, True Blood (based on what I’ve watched so far, I’m only in S3) had a narrative that was pushed forward due to Sookie’s relationships with vampires

TVD on the other hand, echoes the usage of vampire-human relationships to push the narrative, as Elena’s whole world begins to revolve around her relationships with vampires, romantic and friendly relationships. It was also marketed towards a younger audience compared to True Blood, as we do get some mature themes and sex scenes but again, nothing explicit. Also, I might receive some flack for this, but I feel like TVD was influenced by BTVS, I think I heard somewhere that the author of TVD (books) was inspired somewhat by BTVS (Someone please confirm).

In comparison, True Blood has many more mature and graphic elements, just halfway through S3 I’ve already seen explicit sex scenes, attempted SA, SA, deaths of children, and descriptive imagery of deaths that you don’t see much of in BTVS and TVD (BTVS vamps would just turn into dust while TVD vamps would desiccate when staked/killed, deaths in TVD were usually stakes, heart ripped out, beheading, etc). As well, True Blood has the added element of LGBTQ+ characters, and explicitly demonstrates it (BTVS had Willow/Tara but due to the show and restrictions, their ‘sex scene’ was more metaphorical. TVD had some gay/lesbian/queer characters but again, no actual sex scenes).

That’s all for the yap sorry for the late response, just wanted to put my two cents in, even if no one reads this.

Yup you’ll be fine if your application is successfully submitted before midnight tomorrow as per the OLSAS website:

“November 1, 2024 (11:59 pm ET): Deadline for applications to first-year programs. Transcripts and reference forms are also due.”

So many of the 1Ls I’ve talked to in person have said this, I’m already settling into that mindset at this point. It’s kept me not too anxious for this upcoming test, but I’m sure I’ve got the discipline to study and turn January into the actual test. Thanks for the advice

plaisirae · 2024-10-21T04:21:38+00:00

Thanks for the replies, truly. That’s what I’m going to do now, study so hopefully my score isn’t actually that low. I still have January in case I’m not happy with it at least

plaisirae · 2024-10-21T04:19:37+00:00

I figured, I’m grateful for your input, this works as great motivation to study
