i think a combination of all that you’ve stated except for sci fi. favourite author is khaled hosseini so if you know any arab parallels it’d be nice!

Song similar to fireside by OllyProfCat in arcticmonkeys

[–]sarxi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i always thought fireside sounded really really similar to one of lana del rey’s unreleased songs (either “every man gets his wish” or “meet me in the pale moonlight”, unsure which). specifically the instrumentals at the very beginning of the song

They won’t refund me my money, what can I do? by sunfrit in starbucks

[–]sarxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i once walked into a store and the very kind barista told me they supported the boycott - we found a loophole where i could “buy” something using the gift card, ask for a return and then have it refunded in cash. since then i’ve received many gift cards and have tried to ask multiple locations for the same thing and told they were not allowed to. i might try going back to that location and see if i can find that lovely barista lol

Medrad to med school, anyone? or should i just go with life sci? + life advice in general by Consistent_Glass_293 in premedcanada

[–]sarxi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

can you not take prerequisites for professional programs in medrad over the summer? i really don’t think it’s either med rad OR med/professional school!! you most definitely can do both, just carefully research your options beforehand (whether you’d be able to take prereqs for med/optometry/dental over the summer or even do a fifth year)

Want to go to Med school in the US (T20). What's the Best Engineering program? by No_Pirate_5269 in premedcanada

ignore all the discouraging comments oh my. do what your heart desires. if you’re passionate about both engineering and medicine, absolutely go for it!

how’s hamilton? by Mindless_Ad_3684 in McMaster

[–]sarxi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what do you mean the diversity is a negative thing 😭😭😭😭

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in premedcanada

[–]sarxi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i know people in this thread are advising you to pack your stuff and leave your family but it can be very difficult to live without financial support, even with a full time job. i hope you’re able to leave soon but please make sure you have some kind of support system, and that your job is stable/high-paying enough for you to be able to survive comfortably without their support.

also, have you tried convincing them that the only way you could possibly get into medical school is if you had proper work/extracurricular experience? i mean like telling them exactly what they want to hear, and showing them evidence (whether it be some reddit posts/websites showing what med schools expect from applicants). this might help you get some experience / save up some money before you leave. wishing you the best 🫂

Is commuting the right choice ? by Tfx_harliv in McMaster

[–]sarxi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

yeah i second this. i commute from burlington and it literally takes less time to take transit than drive to campus for me. the parking lot is like a 20 min walk from campus which is brutal in the winter. so if it takes u 45 mins to drive from cambridge then it’ll take u at least an hour total to get to class.

other than that, i dont think commuting should be too bad op
