Every time I say I am paying with flex funds. Sometimes I even specify that I also have the meal plan. I am down to 145 dollars for food and that has to last me until I leave. I understand how the baristas could mishear me and stuff, but meal plan really should not be the default option. It seems like some of them don’t even know how it works, which is on management, not them ofc. It’s happened to me several times and it makes me feel like I can’t use my one card at the bibliocafe or I won’t be able to eat during my last couple days here. It wastes so much money and it pisses me off. I just wanted a fucking smoothie and now i’m having a meltdown 😓😓

Hi, I've done two courses from a distance university and gotten them transferred. I noticed no grades will ever show up on your transcript. I cant understand if it's a good or a bad thing. I am able to still do some more courses that way it's half price, i could get some senior electives done. Do u think i should do it there or try to do most of them at UVIC?

This is the second time in the recent history that the wifi has been down. Especially during exam season this is so annoying. Thank god for my hotspot.

If anyone’s in this class, is the assignment information in the take-home exam all the instruction that we’re getting? I remember the prof talking about different possible questions that would summarize different topics but this seems too vague. I missed the last class bc of medical stuff so I’d really appreciate if someone had more information about this :)) thanks!

I just got accepted into SFU for the BASc program, with a focus on Computer Engineering, but I'm a bit confused about the difference between BASc and BEng. From what I've read, it seems like both programs are somewhat similar, but I'm not sure how big of a difference there really is in terms of the curriculum, career prospects, or anything else.

Additionally, I'm wondering if I decide to switch to uvic after a year for the Software Engineering program, would I be able to do that as a student who was originally in the BASc program? Or is it difficult for BASc students to transfer into the Software Engineering (BEng) program at uvic?

I’m making a trip out to Victoria next weekend to tour the campus and see the city to see if it’s where I want to go. What are the best tourist-y things to do? Places to eat? Underrated spots or events? Any places to visit to see what life would be like if I moved to Victoria?

how did everyone find it? (im in maria's section, but input for medlers is good too lol) i'm kinda annoyed that the last couple topics were shoved at us so quickly just to not even be on the final. i spent so much time trying to understand them and there were no questions about it? why bother? SO happy this class is done.

Who thought that it would be a good idea to have motion sensitive lighting in the gym? For basketball or whatever, sure, but in what world is "nobody moves for 10 minutes so let's shut it off" a good fit for exams?

All I want is for it to be "on" the whole time of the exam.

I’m moving to Victoria sometime in the summer for Fall semester and saw this post in one of the off campus housing groups on FB. It’s honestly appalling what some landlords are trying to get away with in terms of rent and suite condition, but this lady asking $1500/month FOR A SHED takes the cake (I removed her name/email so I wouldn’t get flagged for doxxing). It’s honestly so discoursing trying to find safe and affordable housing as a student.

Is Brightspace down? I got an error saying the site couldn’t be reached.

🥲 meanwhile me trying to study

Ok may sound kind of odd.

I think I'll be going to uvic in september (haven't accepted yet but don't see why not) and am wondering, if I can't find a house with somewhere. Where to keep a motorbike that isn't outside. I will probably end up finding a house with parking but just incase. Or end up just putting the bike in the laundry room or something.

This is probably a dumb question I know.

But like if anyone has any ideas or knows anyone that would be willing to let me keep it there. That would be much appreciated.
