lol this dude named jeff chen on ubc textbook 4 sale claiming to report students selling u-pass, fucking hilarious. I should've been studying instead of going through the comments.

Smart man, he's simply trying to eliminate the competition so he can sell his own u-pass :troll:

Say goodbye to u-passes for sale once the student ID cards get passes built in

LOL how would that work? Scan the IDs on a bus's barcode scanner? huehue


this was hilarious as hell though. https://fbcdn-sphotos-b-a.akamaihd.n...94299356_n.jpg

Willing to donate 40$ to you if you accidentally drop your upass on the floor infront of me :troll:

lol tough luck. They are going for at least $60.

SFU on 9gag :lawl:

reading some old hilarious posts from overheard at sfu.

1: 2 girls on the 135:

Girl 1: I like the course. It's pretty easy once you get started on practice.
Girl 2: Yea I think it's good that it started off soft, so that you kinda know what to do when it gets hard...

*derpface*

2: Student: "What do you consider cheating?"
Prof: "Well, let's just say that cheating is like porn."
Student: "..."
Prof: "It's hard to explain, but I know it when I see it."

sunny weather all week! midterms all week! straight A's all around!

When I read the forecast, it said that next week from monday to friday is partly cloudy not sunny...

Would it be frown upon to work on editing a non-school related video in CSIL? I'm in cmpt classes so I have an access card, but wondering if anybody would be upset by this?

I wouldn't worry about it. You could say that it's for an IAT course or something.

Since I'm not taking summer semester, I feel like I'm getting dumber :(

A quick question about the Part Time Student grant.

If I say no to direct deposit, will I receive a cheque instead? And would I still have to fill in the banking information?

Thanks

there are tons of ppl watching dramas and gaming streams in the busy fall. i doubt they care about your editing.

Gets an A on my first summer 2013 midterm :accepted:

THAT MOTIVATION TO DO WELL IS KICKING IN

^ on chem 121? =OOO

^Naw, it was for one of my psyc courses


I guess I was right all along :toot:

Hey guys I'll be going here next year
Got in for communications, but taking Kin transfer courses at start up
Any tips for first year like where to park, what I should prepare for, like where the good washrooms are (srs :D), etc

Maggie Benston center generally has clean toilets. I've had a 100% chance so far ahah

After 2 semesters and into my third at the moment here's what I've figured out so far:


AQ washrooms are dirty as fck, avoid at all costs

Go to the gym early... or else all the benches/racks will be taken by newbies :heckno:

If you're not addicted to coffee, you will be (stock up on some caffeine pills it's cheaper :toot:)

Bulk up at the "fight club" - all you can eat and you could pretty much stay there for the entire day...

Rent a book locker at West Mall centre - it's right beside the gym and costs half as much (there's no holes where people can see your stuff)

Some people park on Hastings and take the bus up to campus (take advantage of your u-pass! It saves tons of money for me)

Don't ever buy a new textbook - buy used, find a pdf, or go ghetto like me and take pictures of all the pages (I saved $400 so far since I couldn't find a used copy or pdf for my books last semester)

If you have League of Legends, uninstall that shit asap

Meet some people in the first 2 weeks of classes, otherwise you'll feel :alone:

Avoid the lower bus loop between 3pm - 5pm, take the upper one otherwise the buses will always pass by your b/c they're full

Unless you're on scholarship.... all the classes you want to take will be filled for Spring semester (first years get LAST priority enrolling) so sign up for all the courses with the least amount of seats!

Take 4 courses.... unless you want to be like a keener like me who took 5 courses first semester :accepted:

Don't get lost in RCB Hall or the Education building - it's a maze

Attend orientation, and go to any FROSH if you get the chance




Hope to see you around campus next Fall :fullofwin:

TASC building is the best building to study and do assignments in. I used to do work in the 5/6th floor in AQ but sometimes i need wifi and the wifi isn't as strong there as it is in the TASC building. Plus the view is beautiful, sometimes i feel its better than the view of the mountains in WMC.

Make sure you take care of yourself by getting plenty of sleep and keep stress to a tolerable level. Pick up on good study habits EARLY, you won't regret it.

Can't stress this enough.

But lets be honest, when does that ever happen :fuckthatshit:

Haha, laughed at some of these because it's so true. Couldn't have said it better myself.

In addition to parking, if you really want to drive up the mountain, there is free 2 hour parking on University Cresent over at UniverCity. Only downside is that you gotta walk 5-10 mins to the AQ, but hey, saves you money for sure.

Also avoid West mall ones well, just as worse

Will probs call out a random rs fight club meet sometime during fall sem.


oh yeah and watch out for the 'night elf' that parks at the convoc lot. :lawl:

Some of what foreveryours said are very true. But taking pictures of new textbook or parking down the hill is really a pain in the ass. Either you drive all the way up or none at all. Plus you have to either stand at a bus stop waiting for 135 or 145. Just personal preference. But UniverCity parking is a good option.
