Students of UBC: I’m probably just as busy as you, and I’m voting in the AMS Elections. Also, shit-giving.
I managed to inform myself enough to vote, even though I was half-writing my paper while watching a candidate’s debate, was listening to an educational podcast while reading candidates’ bios, and was doing Biology readings in MASS when I was … Continue reading → Continue reading

Sitting in at CiTR
On Wednesday, I got the sweet chance to sit in on a CiTR show, UBC’s campus radio. Just walking into the CiTR clubroom is an adventure. The aura is one of a medieval pub, of which every person has a … Continue reading → Continue reading

3 things and a mash-up.
The past week has led me to learning the following lessons: 1. Don’t leave your co-op application to the last minute. I know it’s a hard decision to make, but lean towards one side in the summer and JUST START on the application. The info session will provide the almost the same things as a [...] Continue reading

Imagine :Day
Sept. 07. 2011 Palpable spirit. Deafening chants. Roaring Applause. Ecstasy. Imagine Day 2011. Imagine Day 2011 was, without a doubt, the most interestingly intense day I have experienced since my high school graduation ceremony in March.
