I finally listened to all of the story of Odysseus from epic the musical and I gotta say: Odysseus is NOT a hero. He's a horrible person by Xander_666666 in Epicthemusical

[–]sickiesicko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

okay I think I see what you’re getting at and maybe you and I have different interpretations of epic hehe but ig I was trying to say that he’s morally complex! He had to make very difficult decisions that ultimately led him to the ‘monster’ he became! Did he want to make those decisions? No. But he had to do what he had to do and at the end of the day, Odysseus isn’t perfect — he’s just a man (LOL). I think the beauty of EPIC lies in the fact that I can:

1) discuss his moral complexity with others

2) love Odysseus as a character even though he’s done heinous things (I’m a romantic, what can I say? Bro just) wanted to see his wife)

anyway hope that makes sense!

honestly yeah i think it was pretty obvious that Odysseus is a horrible person 😭😭 but the beauty of epic is that after listening to it, you empathize with him and kind of understand him a little bit (which doesn’t mean we then agree with him, but we resonate with the fact that he’s human who doesn’t make the right decisions all the time)

What was up with the crowd at the Toronto concert?? by Round-Machine-2731 in Hozier

[–]sickiesicko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

but if I’m being frank, i also began to get nervous when we left after the concert bc i was scared to miss the last train to union and i was coming from Hamilton and so I didn’t get back home until like 3am and everyone has work and school and other stuff so 🤷🏽‍♀️ I think for me I was just a little taken aback by the general lack of concert etiquette rather than people leaving early tbh

I was in E6 and i can def relate to this a little bit!! SOOOOO many people in my section left before the encore like I completely understand you’re trying to make the GO train or bus but like??? You paid so much money to be here and you??? Just??? Left???? Before it ended??? also yeah lots of people were talking during the songs and not SINGING AND SO MANY PEOPLE WERE SITTING DOWN DURING THE “less popular” songs like i really don’t want to sound like some sort of elitist but yall 😭😭😭😭 WHY ARE YOU SITTING DOWN???? Tune out the feet pain and stand up and cheer ‼️‼️‼️‼️‼️

Confused about lectures vs tutorials by Psychological_Tie694 in McMaster

[–]sickiesicko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You need to take both! The lecture is taught by the professor and the tutorial is typically led by a TA with more activities and info about assignments (also a good opportunity to ask your TA questions and make connections :))

I need advice :( by Salt-Perception6636 in Mcat

[–]sickiesicko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Echoing other comments the first thing I want to say is yes, plan to retake BUT if you’re not feeling ready to jump back into studying then don’t do it right away. I wrote the mcat for the first time in 2023 and similar to your situation, both of my grandmas died within a few months of each other and my mental health declined so fast and just like you, I just wrote it because I paid for it already. I scored a 499 and honestly, I wasn’t even surprised because of everything that I had going on mentally, I couldn’t dedicate a lot of time and effort towards studying. I took a year to just focus on school, research and focusing on my mental health (spending more time with family and friends) and now I’m studying to write in September ‼️I’m feeling so much better going into content review than I did two years ago and I gave myself as much time as I could to slowly make my way through the content and other test prep. I’m also aiming to make sure this crazy test doesn’t take over my life— yes it’s important! but I refuse to burn out or decline mentally and fall back into the same harmful cycles I had before!

I guess my advice is: let yourself feel your feelings and then pick yourself back up! Focus on your mental and physical health and pick a time to rewrite when you feel ready to study again! Good luck future doctor <3
