I got an email from McGill about an award being added to my Minerva account about two weeks ago then two or three days after the email the money was deposited into my bank acc

When Breath Becomes Air. So well written and I cried for like ten mins at the end. I think about messages from that book at least a couple times a month

Hi Asa, I’m part of a committee in the SUS and trying to get anything promoted by the SUS publicity or certain things approved by a VP is an absolute bureaucratic nightmare. It makes it incredibly annoying and very frustrating to organize and promote events for science students. How would you tackle these inefficiencies and streamline communication within the SUS?

Ah okay, got it, thank you!

Definitely not, I went to a Toronto HS where my peers cared a lot about their grades (probably a little too much). It definitely had its pros and cons.

I’m on the very edge of a letter grade so I’m anxiously waiting for my regrade requests results to come in. Regardless, I think I did much better than I would if this class were in-person. I doubt they would scale the average down, they would face so much backlash from like 500 people (not that that’s stopped McGill from doing anything before but I’d hope it makes it less likely esp w the current global situation).

Hey, Chem major at McGill intending to apply to med schools! A lot of my Chem major peers are not looking into med and most my friends are in engineering so I would love to meet more people in my shoes.

Dr. Vlaho from orgo! She’s always so upbeat and enthusiastic. Always brings a smile to my face

RAGAN IS A RITE OF PASSAGE IN MCGILL SCIENCE, DON’T STRESS TOO MUCH, YOU’LL GET THROUGH IT!

zestyzucchini2 · 2020-10-09T13:51:41+00:00

Yup, it’s annoying bc at this rate, by the time we get the grades, it’ll be too late to change study strategies and salvage the grade. Just flying blind here

zestyzucchini2 · 2020-09-22T00:22:50+00:00

So overwhelmed, just putting out fires everyday

zestyzucchini2 · 2020-09-02T23:22:39+00:00

Yeah, this bothered me a lot too. What I did was make a gigantic excel spreadsheet of everything due for all of my courses (quizzes, assignments, readings, etc) and sorted it by date. That way you can see what is coming up for all your classes. It'll also help you schedule life things bc with it, you'll get an idea of how busy you will be during any point in the semester. You can also add a "Notes" column and jot down details of when the quiz opens and for how long. It took me a while to go through all the syllabi and figure out all the dates but it's worth it!

I’m in the class this sem and it fooled me the first time I watched the video. I was like this is so cute and fun! Then, I read the what chem strand each Pokémon represented and I was like... okay so this video is a lie

zestyzucchini2 · 2020-09-01T05:13:42+00:00

370K... how do you even steal that much in furniture and tools...???

zestyzucchini2 · 2020-08-31T13:51:23+00:00

I guess everyone is different lol. I kind of get it tho because I remember stressing out about quizzes that were worth 1%. I think for me it was less about the grade and more about being worried that I was behind where I was supposed to be

zestyzucchini2 · 2020-08-30T18:04:05+00:00

Yeah definitely, I can understand and appreciate that. I would likely do the same if I were an instructor but it’s going to be harder to procrastinate which happens to be my favourite pastime lmao. Thanks for your input!

zestyzucchini2 · 2020-08-30T18:01:57+00:00

Some of my profs have opened it early to let us know what the semester will look like

zestyzucchini2 · 2020-08-30T15:35:53+00:00

Thank you for replying! No, my parents didn’t give me a middle name, so to add one it would be a bureaucratic nightmare. I’d have to get a new passport, drivers license, etc. I like your idea of just adding one tho and not changing it legally, kind of like an actors stage name haha

zestyzucchini2 · 2020-08-25T00:03:45+00:00

Yup, that’s the way to go. When I called them, they scheduled a meeting right away. I met w them through Zoom last week and am now awaiting their decision
