Intro Philosophy May 26, 2008, 11:31 am
Sometimes it was really interesting, other times it was really boring. I think it depends on your professor and their testing/marking scheme as to how difficult the course is....

tennis May 26, 2008, 11:27 am
I would love to play tennis. I haven't played it since highschool in grade 10 (about 4 years ago) so i suck too. But i remember it being really fun! Would you want to play on campus? I don't know what the fees are to use those courts....

The tuition thaw May 7, 2008, 4:04 pm
What's your opinion?
The freeze had been in place for a long time, i don't think it was realistic to keep it much longer. However, I was/am quite content with my courses and profs and don't think they can be improved much in the Human Ecology faculty, so I am really sad to see the freeze removed. At least there will be a grace period until the fees are raised (1 year i think)...

It does that sometimes (usually at the worst possible times it seems) but it's usually pretty reliable. I'd say the only thing you can do is just wait it out....

Im on the fence about the Ramones, there's a lot of songs by them that i really like but theres a few that i really hate too. The hives are one of my favourite bands, I like their new album a lot im going to see them on the 20th (wooo). Dropkick murphys are sweet, do you like Flogging Molly?...

studying May 7, 2008, 3:52 pm
In my first year i did a lot of cramming and last minute essay writing. But I have better time management skills, if my exams are spaced out I usually don't have to cram for any of them....

Procrastinate Dec 11, 2007, 9:34 pm
I agree with you tetyana! School is important but it shouldn't be your entire life, everyone needs a balance. All work and no play makes jack a dull boy.
But i'm a slacker too so i shouldn't even be talking, in fact i am procrastinating right now. Back to studying!...

Easy peasy lemon squeezy Dec 11, 2007, 9:30 pm
Wow i'm a little intimidated to post here because of these arguments, and clayton hasn't even responded yet
But anyways, i've heard many times that Introductory to computer usage (i believe that's what the course is called) is easy peasy. Pretty sure it;s a science credit too.
I would love to take it to boost my GPA but i don't have room/time to take it!
Math in art is also easy, and fun!...

looking for some people who listen to punk music Dec 9, 2007, 10:24 pm
I like older punk mostly but i listen to some newer stuff too! What are some of your favourite bands? I like The Clash, Sex Pistols, Billy Talent. Just to list a few.
I listen to lots of other music too but punk is my favourite....

Helpful Jun 23, 2007, 12:34 pm
Fairly helpful, I don't mark up my text books often. When i read ahead of the class, sometimes i highlight things that are not important. Apparently there's more to marking up your textbooks than just highlighting, thanks guys!...
