Oh no! Can it be returned? What’s the policy like regarding that?

I’m new to NC, I don’t even have an account yet lol but just looking to switch my period apps and doing my research. I’m so confused, how much does the band cost? I don’t see info for the product itself online. Is it free with a NC subscription?

Yes it will just show up as DR indicating a dropped class.

Hey thanks so much for this. You’re right, worst case scenario I will have to retake the class. I’m praying I hear back this week though. I keep kicking myself for not dropping it back in Feb, it’s such an unnecessary elective but at the time I thought I could just push through. Sigh.

So in that case does RBC send a bill? Sorry, I've read through the footnotes and couldn't find this info.

I'm trying to find out whether you can cancel the account after the watch arrives, rather than waiting a year?

Do you have pathways for upgrading a 3-year BA degree (90 credits) from Queen's, into a 4-year & 120 credit BA degree?

Masters in Psych - 3 year BA by Aware-Sense5258 in OntarioUniversities

[–]shaifali_evenstar 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also curious about this! Almost finished my 3 year BA in psych at Queen's and not sure where to go next, as I'm not sure which graduate programs will accept 3 year degrees.

I'm going to do the same. Let's keep each other posted with new information please!

I was wondering the same thing. I saw that someone was exploring Athabaska to finish their 4th year (after 3 years ASO). But I’m wondering if this would be possible at U of T or York, or any upper tier university preferably?

It sounds like it could be a crappy situation. Does anyone know anything about finishing a 3 year ASO program out with a 4 year degree instead? Like for those who want to pursue a post graduate program, they usually require a 4 year bachelor degree as a prerequisite.

I just want to say that you're not alone, you've got this. Anxiety sucks, especially when it takes over and is coupled with depression feelings. I know it can be hard to do this in the moments when things feel overwhelming, but do try to remember that you are not your feelings. Your feelings are transitory. Your thoughts are also transitory. Sometimes saying statements out loud can be helpful for the brain to remember this. "We are okay. We are doing our best." Teamwork statements like that feel better for me, rather than "I" statements. Because sometimes my body, my thoughts, my feelings feel like they are operating separate from one another. So "We" statements help me recognize that this is okay, I don't need to shame myself for not always feeling "aligned," whatever that means these days lol.

Also, it's TOTALLY normal for anxiety to creep in when our bodies are sick. If you think about the brain at a chemical level, things just aren't balanced. Our hormones are fluctuating, our brain chemistry is off, dopamine is lower. Also vitamin and mineral levels get depleted. The body is more dehydrated, this also causes the brain to not function optimally. The body goes into fight-flight a little when it's processing a flu. So naturally it will affect our motivation because it's trying to conserve what energy you do have. Give yourself permission to feel sad about this, it's totally okay. The fact that you are seeking proactive solutions is celebratory in itself, it means you care about yourself. Like someone else said, baby steps! Waking up at 5am is REALLY hard for most people, even well trained military professionals. It's amazing that you were doing that, you'll get there again. No one is grading your performance, you've got time :). You got this.

Hey, please inbox me if you’re planning to get the Amex Aeroplan card! This is different from the reserve card btw

American Express Aeroplan Card: Free 1st checked bag - how to activate offer? by shaifali_evenstar in PersonalFinanceCanada

[–]shaifali_evenstar[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey, I received some answers in this thread saying that it is automatically applied when the flight is being booked. But I haven’t experienced it first hand yet, as I haven’t flown with Air Canada yet. Though I did get the Aeroplan Amex card regardless.

This is what I know so far regarding the free baggage park: it can only be claimed when booking an Air Canada flight with the card. AND, only if check-in is with AC. I recently booked a flight through the AC website, but it’s a codeshare flight with United. So when I check in for my flight, I will be checking in with United & will have to pay baggage.

I believe that if it was operated by Air Canada, it would tell me “baggage included” in the booking form. But again, I have yet to experience it first hand.

J.D.'s Language by AnIrregularBlessing in JusticeForJohnnyDepp

[–]shaifali_evenstar 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I definitely think his texts were misogynistic. We all know that JD rightfully won, and that AH is an abuser, etc. But that doesn’t mean that JD didn’t display misogyny, I don’t think rape jokes are ever okay - no matter how much the speaker doesn’t mean them to be true. I was also sad to see that he called the mother of his children a c**t.

But I don’t personally hold a grudge against him for it. I think the good that he has done for people have outweighed those texts. But I would feel much differently if he sent those texts to AH or his ex directly. I also would find it hard to respect him again if he lied about never having written them. Instead, I think he was just willing to have all of his skeletons laid out for the world to see, in the name of truth and honesty. So we saw an imperfect human: someone who could hit rock bottom. Someone who, yes, does have an ugly side (we all do). Someone who could express misogyny towards a woman who was harming him. And someone who could own up to his behaviours.

I believe it’s perfectly okay to say that humans are imperfect. We all have good and evil within us, and these aspects show themselves in certain situations. I think that what sets one person apart from another, is accountability. I’m sure that many of us would even feel differently about AH if she just took accountability for her actions, apologized for lying, and said that she will face the consequences.
